Been thinking of watching the old Digimon anime. Is this a good idea? Am I about to go into debt for a new TCG?
The old Digimon anime was great and it was more well received than the newer ones. Never played the Trading Card Game but thoroughly enjoyed the anime. Patamon was always my fave!!
Baldur’s Gate 1 and 2 is a better investment. No need for high-end PC, plus there’s also a open-source Infinity Engine port available called gemrb.
You can watch the show without getting into the tcg.
If money is tight I recommend against getting into an expensive hobby lol
I enjoyed Digimon as a teenager. I never got any cards. However I did make a liiiittle fan art.
Why Digimon and not Pokémon?
I loved both as a kid but Digimon was a much better story. Pokemon was super cheesy and felt like it was just made to sell video games and trading cards.

I already know pokemon. I’m making an active effort to not be into pokemon anymore.
-
As a kid i wasnt allowed to watch tv or play videogames, so I’ve been trying to catch up on the childhoods everyone else had.

Trying to get out of MTG, not interested in the Pokemon TCG or the One Piece TCG because their mechanics aren’t interesting to me, and there is no amount of money you could pay me to deal with the average Yu-Gi-Oh player. The Digimon TCG seems cool, though.
@Shkshkshk @grasshopper_mouse As far as my own media childhood goes:
-
Play some of Square/Squaresoft’s various JRPGs from before the Square Enix merger.
-
Watch some awesome cartoons that got tragically cancelled before they could finish. (ABC’s “SatAM” Sonic the Hedgehog, Pirates of Dark Water… technically Thundercats 2011 is too late for my childhood, but it’s the same idea).
That’ll give you a good summary.
