Welcome to Digimon: World-Wide

Ah, D:WW, how I have missed you… Oh, sorry didn't see ya there. Let me introduce myself. I'm Seth Carmichael, avid Digimon: Worldwide player and one of the first to hit mega.

I guess I should talk about the game, huh? D:WW was released in late 2009, with the beta released in early Spring. Toei had been secretly working on Worldwide for a good while, sending out beta invitations to Digimon devotees and somehow keeping it quiet. My friend, Sean, was given an invitation because of his vast amount of contributions to… oh, I forget the name of the site. However, the main reason he was able to make those contributions were due to my knowledge on just about every Digimon. No, I'm not really proud of the fact that I know that much about Digimon. Toei, however, got wind of this and sent me a invitation.

Back in the early stages of the beta, there were only eight playable starting Digimon; Agumon, Gabumon, Palmon, Salamon, Biyomon, Hagurumon, Impmon, and Gomamon. No, you didn't choose your partner; You were your partner. Toei decided to go the way of Digimon World 4 and the digivolution requirements were just as steep. I mean, to digivolve into Raptordramon, you had to go through an insanely long quest line and…sorry about the rant. Anyways, you could become any Digimon you wanted through digivolution in the beta. Until the fans got a hold of it. While, yes, becoming any Digimon you wanted to be was neat, it just wasn't right, you know? Eventually, Toei changed it back to you could only become a Digimon in your character's official line.

When the beta was in it's final stages, it was announced that the players wouldn't be able to keep the Digimon they had been playing as, making a lot of fuss. Toei, however, stood firm on it's decision. When D:WW finally came out, it seemed like even closet Digimon fans were waiting in line for it. Sean and I were surprised to see that two of our friends were playing, friends who said that all anime sucks. On our way through the game, we picked up some other players and eventually became one of the best known groups out there. We would spend whole days questing together and hanging out online… before it happened. I prefer to remember the days before it happened. The eight of us were really close… Those were the days, those were the days…

Well, there's the start of Digimon: World-Wide. I've been wanting to do a Digimon Fanfiction a while, but couldn't get any inspiration until I played Digimon World 4 again with a friend a few days ago. I got the idea for D:WW and just let it flow out. Please, fellow Digi-fans, read and review and for my sake, only positive reviews or constructive criticism. Yes, the next chapter will be 1000+ words. Well, ja ne!
