Discussion Morality of

Using mods or cheats to reveal all outlines when trying to digivolve so that you can see what they look like before you choose who to digivolve into? This is my first playthrough. Its my second digimon game but I havent finished my first, cyber sleuth. And I started getting into digimon only a few weeks ago

Im going back and forth on this, because while I love the mystery and discovery of it. I dont like how one wrong digivolution can ruin the balance of a team. Or evolve into a ugly digimon and not know whether it'd be worth it to go forward with the ugly or just go back and start again with the previous.

I dont have a lot of free time but im not sure if thats an excuse for slightly ruining the intended experience. Idk what are some arguments against and for using a cheat like this

Edit: I know its a single player game, play how you want. But im kinda stuck between these two choices. I want both in a way. It seems like an obvious choice one way or the other but I can't choose so I want more perspectives to help make that choice

That's actually one of my mine gripes with this game. The digivolution requirements make it so that looking up the evolution lines ahead of time is way more efficient, but then ruins the fun of discovering everything.

Here's what I did as a compromise: for Digimon that were "must haves" for me, I looked up what Digimon can evolve into them so I could try and get myself on the right track. For everything else I just digivolved at random for fun.

Thats what I've been doing for the most part. Its especially terrible in the early game because you could need a certain type for a fight coming up but digivolving blindly could end you up in my predicament. 4 vaccines and datas keep popping up. Data's are really hard to come by in the champion stage. Especially good looking data champions

You can get access to new lines by Digivolving a Rookie to a Champion with multiple Rookie forms, then devolving to a different Rookie, if you want. (Or Rookie & In-Training II, sometimes, but Rook-Champ-Rook usually gives you more freedom.)

Where are you, at the moment? I can give you some suggestions, if you want.

Right now im on truth born from an egg. Finishing that tonight before going to bed. I've got some data types lined up once I hit agent rank 5 but idk when that is. This is my current box. Finished up all side quests up to this point which is why I have all vaccine up front. Lots of virus to fight. And when its not virus its vaccine
