Nexomon Series

[Hermione Granger]

Who has played Nexomon? I just learned about these games today and picked up Nexomon Extinction on my Xbox Series S and preordered Nexomon on my Switch Lite. I'm excited to try these out since they are similar to Pokemon so these will be turned base games I can enjoy.

What are your guys experience with the Series for those who have played them?

They actually look like good games inspired by Pokémon. I may need to get this on Steam or Switch.

Nexomon: Extinction was good for the most part. It ended up crashing a lot, though. Afaik there are some problems with Unity (the engine they used) and the Switch that were the cause of it. I'm not sure if they fixed it. It has been a while since I last played it.

Also the endgame of that game sucks. You either end up grinding a ton because of the massive level spike at the end. Or you end up spamming a lot of healing items.

The original one will be $10, but I don't know if it is on discount for preorder on Steam, but on the Switch you can preorder Nexomon for $9.

I learned that from the videos I've watched for the game, but I'm up for the challenge. It also might encourage me to play the harder Pokemon Rom hacks if I end up enjoying this game which I'm already being challenged and I'm only near the beginning of the game.

It's out on consoles now, and on sale for Steam! I may pick it up on PC and maybe Switch down the road.

This looks similar to another monster-catching game I played called Micromon! And probably similar to quite a few others, but I'm interested in this one for its nice art… going to have to consider the purchase, especially now that we have a bigger TV for Switch gaming. ❤️

I just saw a trailer for it so I downloaded it on my phone to see if it's any good. If it is then I'll probably pick it up for my Switch.

I had a great time with both 1 & 2, even filled the database/dexs, look forward to if/when they make a third game in the series.
I've logged a lot of hours into both games on switch and I only ever had one crash on Extinction, right at the end game cutscene no less lol, so I assume they fixed a lot if you used to hear about crashes more often than that? I wouldn't consider a one-off crash that bad for so many hours played.
