The game is all about dead people fighting so they can come back to life. The game is epic but maybe you loves it because it was personal for you.

It's a passion project where the dev clearly spent tons of their own time just thinking about it for years

Yeah. It’s like... you can live and waste all of your time hung up on stupid shit but when times up you’ll probably regret it.

This, I'm usually a massive fan of weird gameplay mechanics and this utilized everything the DS could do really well. Having to split focus between two screens in battle was actually a really cool idea.

play silent hill 2 or listen to the soundtrack

Because TWEWY is a great fucking game, OP. One of the most cohesive in Square’s works to boot.

How does it make you feel knowing the Switch version ended the game on a cliffhanger and teased a sequel that will never exist?

Is the Switch version as bad as people say?

>Blow into the mic
>Create a fucking tornado
So cool.

No. There is nothing wrong with the joycon controls.

Joke’s on Squeenix, TWEWY has legitimate alternate universes so I can ignore that aspect and pretend that only the DS version exists.

Switch/Mobile versions just lose the dual-screen aspect of the fights. They did fix some issues I thought were unnecessarily dumb like Mingle PP but other than that you control Neku more of the less the same.

So how did the bonus episode in final mix fuck up the story?

TWEWY was all about "expand your horizons and use your imagination" and that's a pretty good message to, well, real kids in general, and to people like Neku, a shitty know-it-all and hermit. Hanekoma says flat-out to do that and Neku doesn't start seriously weighing the Game, the stakes, or its broader implications until he's told that. Try everything and see what gels with you, and what you're good at.

Neku’s dead again and now has to play another Game in the UG with Sho for a partner as a part of Coco’s schemes.

TIME

I WON’T EVER GIVE IN

I think that TWEWY was the game that used better the DS features

NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU PULL ME IN

I legitimately can’t think of any other games that used the DS’ features so well. It all came together so perfectly.

I KNOW GRAVITY AIN’T AN EXCUSE

wario ware: touched!

Is it any good?

X.X

if you like wario ware, yeah.

I JUST WANNA MAKE THINGS A LITTLE MORE SMOOTH

I think it legitimately was the best DS game.
And the writer still had ideas for a sequel (angels and other "regions" are really under-exploited.)

What will his role be in the sequel?

Being a dick and coming up with more keikaku.

MAJORITY IS STILL ASLEEP

THEY’RE TIRED OF THOSE DREADFUL DREAMS

Didn’t expect Neku to have such lewd taste in music.

NOW, LET ME SHOUT AND WAKE YOU UP

I wonder if the whole nuking Shinjuku and Hype chan is related to the secret ending of TWEWY. Remember when Hanekoma said that there would "be problems upstairs"?

>photo-realistic shibuya
Oh god. They've already fucked it up.

what can they do gameplay wise in the sequel tho?
the fun dual screen combat is gone and the solo remix combat is kinda meh
will it be something completely different?

Attached: 1526232807547.png (631x627, 404K)

I’m hoping that they make it so that the battle system revolves around making the best use of the hardware, just like what they did with the DS.

I dunno if that would work too well on anything other than the DS or 3DS
the only console right now to have hardware gimmicks is the switch, and I don't think there's really anything they can do with it to make the gameplay interesting
sure they could make the player dock and undock the console, have to switch to joycons or whatever, but I don't think there's a way to incorporate these kinds of things without them being a chore to do rather then simple and fun

We're not getting a sequel.

>control one character with left joycon, other with right
>puck uses hd rumble to simulate the controller "filling up"
>have to flick motion the controller towards the other to pass the puck before it "bursts" or you drop the combo

Whatever the case, I just hope they don’t for the XV/KH approach. TWEWY with generic combat just doesn’t feel right to me.

a sequel could be cool but it would so unnecessary - TWEWY told an amazing, complete story and fleshed out its own mythology so thoroughly that I don't know what another game could really add.

LET ME WAKE YOU UP!

I ask the same about the people who claim that TWEWY is edgy, considering how the entire game is basically spelling out that being an edgelord is not a good thing.

In Another Day. It’s actually hinted at in week 1, when Rhyme gets Erased.

Oh damn, I've actually been trying to beat this section recently but I got stuck at the halfway point. All these years I've played the game and been confused about why Neku was so edgy and what he meant by that line in Week 1 and now I know. Thanks man.

WHY YOU WANT TO TIE ME UP?

I thought the Switch version was better by the virtue of Solo co-op mode. It became more fitting to the game since you handled both characters on the same screen.

will Sho be allowed to fucking die at some point? I like the dude but gdi

thanks, my good man. so there's no gameplay of Neku+Sho partnership?

idk whether to be hyped or scared. Or both.

None but they’re probably saving that for the sequel. Oh, and forgot to add:
>Shinjuku gets destroyed by what’s called an “Inversion.”
>Hype-Chan is revealed to be the lone survivor and ends up in Shibuya, with the post “7 New Days” Secret Ending screen appearing again.

fuck my life if it's on switch
no clues to the "inversion"?

When do you think we'll get a sequel announcement?

None whatsoever though Hanekoma mentions there’s something crazy coming their way and that Noise have started appearing in the RG.

What are some other good Square Enix games?

Vagrant Story.

Off the top of my head, Chrono Trigger, Bravely Default, Nier Automata (though technically developed by Platinum), the Dragon Quest games, and some FF titles.

What's shinjuku?

A district in Tokyo, pretty close to Shibuya.

dont hear much about that one
somebodys never played smt i see

>they have their own Fusion Attack
One of the best fights in the game, honestly. Konishi is also a fave of mine.

Ah okay, I thought it some new in game area or something
What smt should I start with?

I fucking love when games have boss battles with Player-Specific mechanics. I too love the Konishi fight as well, all the boss battles had really cool gimmicks.

Imo, SMTIV on the 3DS is the best place to start since it was made with newcomers in mind. It’ll help get you familiar with the series’ mechanics and is a great game on its own. You can also check both Devil Survivors and Strange Journey Redux as well.

that boss fight was lit asf.

Attached: Neku and his friends.jpg (935x707, 288K)

I really, really like IV but honestly I think Nocturne may be a better starting point. My reasoning for this is that IV has some QoL changes that aren't present in Nocturne which may make the game a bit annoying if you go backwards. The other user is right though, IV is a good starting point just something to think about.
Shit like that makes my dick rock solid. When bosses fight like the player character I love it every time.

TWEWY made me realize I’m a fucking loser

How so?

I'm a real stubborn asswipe. I'm a know it all and I always shut people out of my life due to my own insecurities. I feel lame because I know it's a terrible way to live life, it's evident in how depressed I am, yet I still continue on this destructive path. Eventually I'll truly be all alone if I don't change but I struggle getting past my own poor mentality. It's actually incredible how much I relate to this game and it just makes me even sadder because I'm a grown man but have such a childish mentality. Does that make sense?

Nah, I get you. And I’m sorry that you feel that way. That said, it isn’t always so cut and dry. Sorry if I’m sounding like a self-help book but you can keep pushing forward to improve yourself. It won’t always come easy but you can overcome your own shortcomings. You just have to keep trying. That said, you shouldn’t try to force yourself to deal with all of this at once. Give it time and who knows? You might just surprise yourself.

Remember Chain of Memories where the Organization hated eachother and at least half of them were trying to kill eachother or use Sora?

Game kind of reminded me of that. Some of Jupiter must have leaked into the production.

They did base TWEWY’s gameplay off of Chain of Memories so it’s not too surprising.

I skipped CoM. Perhaps I should try it?

You should go for the GBA version. 3D remake doesn’t gel well with the card based gameplay compared to its handheld counterpart.

>future TWEWY titles
I always feel so uneasy about this. I love the shit out of the game but I just don't know how they'd do a sequel. TWEWY told its story very well, it doesn't feel like there's anything left to say. Then there's the fact that we have no interesting console like the DS for the gameplay creativity. I'm afraid of what Square will do.

Good message. I wish I could get over stupid shit.

Whatever the case, I just hope that they make TWEWY like any other generic ARPG out there. God I knows I would hate it if they just made it another FFXV.

>game is about appreciating the value of life
>"I-It's edgy because I hate it."

Do you think a spin-off with KH2 styled combat could work?

>Do you think a spin-off with KH2 styled combat could work?
I was thinking exactly that, but SE just can't into fun action gameplay lately

Can we all agree that if this game get a sequel, it would only work for the Switch because of the touch screen and motion control. There is no way they can make it work for PS4 and especially for Xbox.

I agree. It's the only thing that could give a remotely unique experience. It'd take a lot of thought to come up with something interesting.
So I'm wondering what the fuck the original KH team has been doing. I know they're working on FF7R right now but before that? Did they develop FFXV?

I liked KH2’s combat but I’m not sure if it would fit. Then again, Neku’s pins could translate pretty well into that kind of thing.

unless you can any pin to anything it won't feel the same

Good point. The touchscreen commands were what made a lot of those moves possible in the first place. They could go the Command Deck route but that system was only really utilized properly in Recoded, funnily enough.

I feel Recoded being the best command deck game was a very fortunate accident
Osaka team couldn't do a lot of flashy shit so they had to keep it simple, which worked in favour of the game

That explains a lot, actually. You were actually able to properly link together Commands in combos and your physical attacks weren’t complete garbo compared to the other Deck games. Kind of a shame that the game is held back by those annoying ass minigames in each world, because the combat was actually pretty fun.

I might have a problem.

I’ve seen some Let’s Players use a tablet and pen to be able to play the game with next to no problem so that might work.

I mean I have no problem splitting the screen in two and using the mouse. I was talking more about the mic stuff.

IIRC, some guy was able to route a button to the microphone function and just hold it down for nonstop mic action.
