YMMV: Digimon World
Subjective Tropes for the Digimon World video game.

  • Nightmare Fuel: Skullgreymon's area. It looks like brains.
  • Crowning Music of Awesome: Machinedramons battle music, so freaking AWESOME!
  • Cult Classic: Critical reception was mixed and sales weren't strong, but the game is rememberd fondly by those who have played it.
  • Disappointing Last Level: Not so much in terms of gameplay or story, but some versions of the game get increasingly buggy as you progress towards the end of the game.
  • Game Breaker: Ice Statue. Near-instantaneous casting time, high damage, and has a chance of causing paralysis to boot. If anyone asks why Megadramon's so popular, that's likely a factor.
    • Also Full Power/Full Potential. It raises all your stats by large amounts. In fact, the reason the Bonus Boss is so hard is because he starts the battle by spamming it! (The aforementioned Megadramon can use it too)
    • Those techniques are nothing compared to the Monzaemon suit in Toy Town. If you get a Numemon, you can interact with it to evolve into a Monzaemon instantly. You can now breeze through most of the game with ease due to the fact that you now have an Ultimate digimon. (Doubly so if you learn Megalo Spark, which is basically the air-elemental version of Ice Statue)
      • Course, first you have to *reach* Toy Town without getting clobbered in the forest...
  • Good Bad Bugs: The glitch where your partner's name at the startup screen would end with many extra "mon"s, Mojymon dancing on the water, cloning items via the shop in the Gear Savannah, making the doors vanish in Toy Town with the DG Dimension move...
    • For whatever reason, you can keep feeding Digitamamon's stat-boosting meals to your Digimon partner even after he isn't hungry anymore. If you have a lot of money to spare, you can exploit this glitch to easily max out your Digimon's stats.
  • Misblamed: Many of the glitches in the game are a result of the English localization team.
  • Most Annoying Sound: If your Digimon digivolves into Whamon, you will learn to hate the sound it makes when it floats after you. Additionally, the sound it makes when pooping is best left undescribed.
    • Vademon has a constant semi-mechanical blare from his UFO, which and be headache-inducing.
  • Tear Jerker: When your Digimon dies, especially if it's your fault for not bringing enough items or not grinding its stats enough.
  • That One Boss: The absurdly strong Greymon that ambushes you outside Jijimon's house.
    • This gets even worse if you don't know its coming and check your prosperity rating while you have a Baby or In-Training Digimon. The battle is activated when Jijimon tells you that the prosperity rating is equal to or greater than 15. Good luck taking on Greymon with your Punimon, as there's no chance to get away from the battle once its activated.
    • Birdramon is even worse.
      • They're not too difficult if you're prepared; the thing is, as mentioned above, that unless you read about it somewhere beforehand, you'd never know they were coming, and thusly probably wouldn't be prepared at all.
