"the protagonist Takuma Momotsuka, whose name cannot be changed since he talks and others will call him by name"
This is very nice. Something I found a bit annoying in Hackers Memory was that although Keisuke was a character already set in history (including his last name), the name Keisuke was never actually used because the player could change. It was not a big problem, but I found it boring. Glad to see they have changed. The protagonist to be only man can annoy some people, but perhaps in the future may come a version with a woman character as it was with Persona 3.
"The multi-ending story and digivolutions will change based on those choices, and several characters may even die. According to Digimon game series producer Kazumasa Habu, he wanted to incorporate "the digivolution of partner Digimon through character development" as seen in the Digmon Adventure anime into the game system."
This is spectacular. Already I expected characters to die, after all it was something that we prepared a lot for this since Cyber Sleuth. If they managed to create an exciting ending with the characters forgetting Erika in Hackers Memory, but not with her actually dying (Acausality Saves Lives: v), I wonder how exciting the Survive scenes will be with the characters actually dying. The game will have less Digimon, which is expected. The game is just something that is between the development of the new game of Digimon Story, or is still missing many models to be made to reproduce what they had until then. Anyway, having only about 100 Digimon can be a very interesting strategy, by the evolution method being based on character development. I find it curious how Kakudou left the development of the Digimon Adventure movie because he did not follow the bases of evolution linked to a character development that were the basis of the first anime, but a game apparently will be based on it. Quite curious, and I believe it will be incredible.
"
While there are about 100 playable Digimon, Habu noted that Digimon Survive places more emphasis on the story than it does collecting Digimo. Also, unlike the Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth games, there are essentially no sci-fi elements in Digimon Survive."
Expected, I've never really been the type of person "gotta catch all", if the game has Digimon that I like and I can use them, I'll be happy with that. But I understand who prefers to collect Digimon and will find this somewhat annoying.
