A Digimon World 2 sequel with improved exploration and combat. More strategic system than the first, deeper Digimon recruitment and evolution. A good JRPG for patient fans, without the richness of contemporary Pokemon.

Collector interest

The second entry in Bandai's Digimon spin-off RPG, released NTSC-U in 2001. More strategic than the first, with deeper Digimon recruiting and fusion, but reputed to be punishing and grind-heavy, which keeps demand within the franchise's hardcore. Its value rests chiefly on the modest US print run and sealed copies, more than on any strong play reputation beyond dedicated fans.

A questionable morality

Raising a digital companion seems sweet, until you realize you're driving it through training, combat and dieting until death or degeneration ensues, before adopting another. You grow attached the better to demand, convinced you're doing right, while the little creature plows through the chores with a devotion you never truly question.
