I'm glad this thread's getting more attention now...
But there are a lot of games out there that push the whole "save the world" bit... especially RPGs, which is the genre Battle Network falls into. True, Star Force is going to be added to the ever-growing list, but it certainly won't be the last.
At least there's a variation in the whole "you wind up meddling with the main villainous group" bit. This time (if the anime has any story resemblance to the game), the hero character winds up getting shoved into it pretty much against his will rather than the hero character up and deciding "Hey, someone's gotta stop this guy! I think I'll do it!". If anything, it's a little more on the realistic side.
Ditto. Yeah, the game has the same plot in the beginning, with Warrock (I will NOT use the dubbed name!) slamming into Subaru and forcing him to transform later on. ...He did choose to help his friends in tha anime, though, so does that count?
I find that to be a bit sad.
No asking if I'll be taking DS game challenges, kthx.
(PM) Friend code, please! ^.^
It was mentioned a few times in the games...I know for certain that in Network Transmission, Chaud comes right out and tells Lan that he's the best one to defeat the LifeVirus because he's done it before. I think it's also mentioned in the beginning of BN5...I guess we'll see if Ryuusei no Rockman 2 does the same...
Seconded. On both Pokemon & MMSF.

I love Battle Network, but Battle Network 3-d with another hashed-out "OMG you has to saves the planets from destruction!!!!" plot is kinda meh. After saving the world from the WWW and Nebula about three times each, I dunno if I have the endurance to last through more of the similar.But there are a lot of games out there that push the whole "save the world" bit... especially RPGs, which is the genre Battle Network falls into.

I still laugh when in the Battle Network series, no one asks Lan, "Hey, aren't you the kid who save the world from destriction a few times?"I find that to be a bit sad.
