Why do people tend to claim that TWEWY’s controls are shit...

Time I won't ever give in
No matter how hard you pull me in.

Only played the original. What’s so bad about it?

Yeah, that aspect was a ton of fun. I spent a lot of time in the menus alone coming up with all sorts of new combos and pin combinations. Speaking of, what were some of your favorite pins to use, bros?

I loved using those dragoon pins that had you teleporting around to slash down on enemies.

Chains were lots of fun. Really helped with racking up a shitload of combo hits.

Objectively the best pin.

I’m not the biggest fan of Nomura but I’ve heard some genuinely good things about TWEWY. Is it that good? What’s the best way to play it?

It’s a genuinely great game. Tons of style, lots of fun gameplay, likable characters, interesting story, and a great soundtrack. Overall, I’d say the DS version is the best way to play it.

Yes. Go for the DS version if you can.

been playing the switch version. I wonder if it is the wrong way to play. I get bored of the fights and I just want to get to the end at this point, even though I like the characters and style.

Due to the change to single screen, a lot of the game mechanics from the DS version had to be taken out, making it a lot less interesting mechanically. The two screens also helped in making the combat more fast-paced and engaging.

The controls are shit but I don't know why people fail to mention how fucking abominable the visual aesthetic is. The whole game has a theme of style and fashion and yet has the worst fashion sense I've ever seen. I would have suffered through the controls if the design wasnt so shit. TURTLENECK TANKTOP.

it is the soul that is edgy. the finished product however is just annoying and gay.

How 'bout the fact that it's the only game with the Stride Cross battle system and we haven't gotten another game like it in 12 years?

I'm too much of a brainlet to figure out how the fuck I'm supposed to use ground pair cards that aren't the same suit or effectively use the single cards from air attacks.

Time Bomb psychs do wonders when it comes to the mammoths. Also, jumping won’t do you too good so it’s best to just block their attacks.

It can get pretty demanding but it helps to have threads that shorten Beat’s combo panels and/or increase his branches to get more better results.

The controls are awkward at first because Neku has a hard time relating to people, expressed through hard to play combat. As the story goes on, Neku learns to relate to people more and the player gets better at the 2 screen gameplay. It's thematic or something.

Have fun user

So, I’ve been playing through DDD and just found out that the characters introduced in that game came from this one. I thought they were pretty interesting and I like their designs so is it worth checking out on the DS?

It’s one of the best games on the system and one of Squeenix’s best games post-merger. So yeah, I’d say it’s worth checking out.

They were good, but not worth a 7 day countdown.

I think for me, the Square games I enjoyed the most were KH1, TWEWY, and Chrono Trigger. They each felt like they had a ton of passion and heart put into them and no other game in their library ever really made me feel that way.

This also applies to the rest of TWEWY's mechanics. For example, offensive actions have to be drawn. Whereas in a normal action game, performing a certain attack requires positioning your character and aiming the attack properly to actually hit the target, in TWEWY you just draw it and it just lands on the enemy, no positioning or aiming required. This leads to a massive dumbing down in gameplay.

>which means enemies have to be designed to be not particularly aggreessive to compensate, which leads to boring gameplay
>you just draw it and it just lands on the enemy, no positioning or aiming required
You didn’t even play TWEWY, did you?

Are you that same fag that called TWEWY a hack and slash, showing just how much you don’t actually know shit about the game? Multiple bosses will teleport the minute you touch them with the stylus, enemies will constantly try to gang up on you and bum rush you, like the wolves and kangaroos, and that’s not even getting into the partner gameplay.

Tapping/slashing/pressing the right target with the stylus IS aiming user, plus for the melee psyches executing them move Neku around, changing his positioning, plus for some psyches Neku's positioning is important. I have a psyche in my deck at the moment where slashing across him makes him do a horizontal lunge, so if I want that to hit anything I need to manoeuvre him to be on the same horizontal level as an enemy, and not too far away. There are also Massive Hit pins that charge up a high-damage melee attack, but while the range on them is good you still need to have good preemptive positioning if you wanna get the most out of them. Dashes can still be executed quickly, just not as quickly as a button press. It's not that the enemies are not particularly aggressive, but the pace of their attacks are more in tune with how long it takes to dodge, which still isn't that long. Not to mention that the reason you can't just press a button to dodge in TWEWY is because the buttons control your partner, and you also have to worry about them to either dodge by jumping, or block.

TWEWY gameplay isn't dumbed down, and it's certainly not boring. Basically you're just zetta slow.

>half the time it doesn't even register your input properly, meaning the dash isn't executed and you are punished for the game's hardware-related failure
You do realize that you can equip pins that can turn your dash into a damaging attack or temporary invincibility maneuver, as well as use the L and R buttons to set up different pin and movement commands? Hell, I had no problem at all getting Neku to move around.

I shudder to think there are people above the age of 8 years who actually struggled with TWEWY's gameplay. And I haven't even mentioned the super duper fusion attacks where the game itself seems to admit how boring the gameplay is, so it just goes into a mini-cutscene and lets you sit back and deal massive damage to the enemies while simultaneously being healed.

Don’t forget about the Burst Round, Nexus Ray, Explosion, Discharge, or Lightning Rook pins, which each require you to be mindful of your positioning and the locations of your enemies.

>Tapping/slashing/pressing the right target with the stylus IS aiming user
It's aiming only in the most superficial sense. There's no real challenge to clicking your stylus on a 2d background. Like I said, in other action games you actually have to position your character properly in relation to the enemy. This is present in TWEWY to some extent, but nowhere near as much as other action games.

>And I haven't even mentioned the super duper fusion attacks where the game itself seems to admit how boring the gameplay is, so it just goes into a mini-cutscene and lets you sit back and deal massive damage to the enemies while simultaneously being healed.
Which you have to build up in the gameplay itself in order to get to those attacks in the first place by paying attention to your partner, not to mention the Fusion Stars required to activate them increase the more you use them, which can make a huge difference in chain battles. Did you even play the game at all?

You're not exactly helping your case here, user.

Attached: 1557359713836.png (225x225, 50K)

You have to earn fusion attacks by collecting enough fusion stars via your partner's card mechanics, and there are three different partners each with a different mechanic. Getting the level 3 fusion requires 16 stars and the amount of stars you need for each level increases every time you execute a fusion. So on top of managing Neku's movement and ensuring your partner doesn't get hit you need to navigate their combo map for the right finisher. I find it's very engaging, personally.

Honestly I agree with what you're saying a bit, it's true that in TWEWY that there are moves where your positioning relative to the enemy don't matter as long as you're on the screen (leaving out the fact that the actual battle area is bigger than the screen so enemies can be far enough away from you that they're off the screen and you can't target them) so positioning is less important than other action games like DMC for example. But I'd argue that doesn't make the combat any less complex, engaging, cuhrazy, or fun. It's simply that less focus is on Neku's positioning on a second to second basis, because more focus is given to other elements like the partner character on the top screen and managing the boot times of your pins.

Basically what that user's saying is that in those fights if you don't keep careful track of Neku's positioning and use your attacks precisely you're gonna get your shit kicked in.

Unless you're playing on easy, which is what you must've done if you think TWEWY has dumbed down gameplay.

Hell, Taboo Sho (and Sho in general, really) will teleport the instant you touch him with your stylus so you have to choose your attacks wisely.

Dude must be immune to so many melee psyches given how a lot of them involve touching enemies.

Because people who have played a few video games in their time think they know it all and when they play a game whose control scheme doesn't fall into categories they are familiar with (shooter, 3d action, fighting, platformer etc.) they are already predisposed to think it's shit because they can't conceive of simply having no skill at the game (yet). People like to jump to the controls being the number one problem with games like Zelda Skyward Sword and Star Fox Zero. Make no mistake, those games are shit, but for completely unrelated reasons. TWEWY on the other hand is the best damn RPG on the DS.

>farming money

>shit pins for taboo wolves

Literally the best game ever.

That's why you keep a fusion on hand to break yourself out, user.

>being this retarded
Taboo Sho teleports the instant you try to attack him with your stylus and will unleash AOE attacks multiple times, requiring you to pay attention.
Reaper Beat will rush around like a madman and try to bum rush you while unleashing energy projectiles at you as well as a shockwave attack that will knock you on your ass if it hits.
Kangaroos will jump high into the air and prepare to dive down on you from below with a marker, requiring you to pay attention, as well as rush you with kicks and uppercut you into the air.
Shrews will dig below the dirt to avoid your attacks, set down bombs that will take out a huge chunk of your health if you’re not careful, attack you from below with their claws, as well as jump up from the ground to divebomb you with a drill claw attack.
Uzuki and Kariya’s attacks increase in tandem with the Light Puck, will track you with energy bullets, and Kariya in particular will send down an AOE energy attack that will knock Neku on his ass.
Wolves will team up to stunlock you with multiple mach rush attacks, interrupt your combos, and can be hard to track down due to said mach rush attacks.
Konishi requires you to knock Taboo Noise into the hole during her boss fight to bring her out (and knocking the wrong Noise in will actually heal her), requires you to pay attention to Beat’s screen to ascertain her true location, will take away your pins and have you focus on getting in her shadow to take down her clones and make it easier for Beat to strike her down and will ultimately have you track down a golden ball of light with the Rhyme pin to track her down and deal damage to her.

This. TWEWY is legit one of the best handheld games ever made.

Okay, can someone enlighten me on what happened in the ending? Did Neku have to play through the Game again after all he’s been through? And why did Joshua decide to let everyone go in the end? Was it because of Neku’s growth?

No and yes. When Neku wakes up in the ending, you can see people actually forming a crowd around him instead of just walking past him like in the previous weeks, indicating that he’s alive. As for why Joshua spares them, Neku was a representative of what Joshua thought was wrong with Shibuya, being so self-centered and antagonistic to others that he was willing to kill his own partner if only he can survive. Because of this, Joshua was banking on Neku being unable to change in order to justify erasing Shibuya and constantly tried to egg on Neku to give into his hatred for others and continue onto his path of isolation. However, Neku actually proves Joshua wrong and changes for the better immensely. He grows from someone who couldn’t give two shits about other people into someone who is willing to risk his life for random strangers and be willing to expand his worldview. Because of this, Joshua also starts to reflect on his actions more and decides to give Shibuya another chance. After all, if someone like Neku can change for the better, who’s to say Shibuya can’t?

TWEWY already crossed over with KH before so it’s not too surprising. Plus, didn’t Sora promise Neku and Shiki that he would meet them in Shibuya?

I want off of Nomura’s wild ride.

Kid icarus control are extremely simple, there's literally 3 things to control (character movement, reticle and shooting), it is just that the 3DS is an incredibly uncomfortable console. I had to say fuck it and use my nail to aim.

TWEWY on the other hand is less about the control (though that said, on a rush you can mess your input on Neku), but the fact that you have to ""control"" 2 characters at the same time, which isn't that much of a big deal if unless you really care about your card gaming.

Do you guys think Square will ever make a game like TWEWY again?

WHERE'S YOUR BEAUTY?

Honestly, I have no idea. TWEWY was basically modern Square’s lightning-in-a-bottle and what I believe to be the last truly excellent Square game. And considering their modern releases now, who knows if we’ll ever get anything like it again?

I was just easy, but no, Square decided to fuck us good. I'm still mad about the countdown, I will never not be mad.

Vacu Squeeze + Lazy Bomber made for a ton of fun.

At this point, I’m convinced that Squeenix just hates TWEWY fans.

The Switch version just gave us another cliffhanger on that matter. I willing to bet that the scenario writer for TWEWY left Square long ago. It is either that or Nomura is holding them hostages on his KH' dungeon.

Probably not. It’s a miracle that TWEWY was even a thing under modern Square. It probably helps that the devs were so passionate about it.

as a person who recently just beat the game for the first time. Its fucking hard. it took me the ENTIRE GAME just to get used to the controls and actually beat the game other than on easy. I can see they people would be filtered especially since neku is one edgy bitch in the first few days.

Ok, fag.

Its not worth it, the sprites still look great and while the music is shorter loops of the actual songs and pretty compressed it isn't that bad, the gameplay compensates greatly for it.
The switch version has a bit of extra content but I'd advice you to just look up the cutscenes on youtube

Just started this game because of how much it's talked about here and I'm consistently getting D and E ranks after battles. I don't know what I can do to improve. I'm following the green orb between characters, but maybe I'm missing something? Am I just ass?

Just finished this game last night and I gotta say, you guys weren’t just hyping it up. What an amazing little game.

Try to win as fast as you can and dodge with your partner

Glad to hear it user! What did you like about?

Level up your pins and eat some food. Learn but by bit what's the skill of each thread and focus on dealing with the most troublesome enemies fast. Good luck.

Welcome, lad. It is nice to see other enjoying this great game. What did you enjoy the most?

Getting better at the game comes with time. You have to get better at managing both characters and how to use them effectively. I remember feeling the same during the first few days, but after a couple of hours of mastering the mechanics you'll be getting better ranks later on.

Everything. The characters, the amazing music, the fun as fuck gameplay, the story, etc, it was a ride from start to finish. I’m actually about to go start up the postgame.

The post game is huge, but if you put the time into it, you'll be rewarded for it.

Happy to hear that you loved it, user! The postgame is meaty as fuck and is legit some of the best I’ve ever played in a game. You’re in for a treat.

IS IT EMOTIONS?
IS IT ILLUSIONS?
I NEED TO BE WITH YOU

I can't wait to fight that guy, I'm stuck on the Hip Snake section of Pork City.

Having played through every variation of TWEWY completely, this is how I would rank them with an incoming wall of text to compare them

DS > Switch Dual Joy-cons > Mobile/Switch Handheld with stylus > Mobile/Switch Handheld without stylus > Switch Solo Joy-con

DS: Most mechanically complex with a high learning curve. Control Neku with the stylus on the touch screen and control partner on the top with buttons. Both characters share a life bar, so you have to be careful. Bunch of systems in play including the light puck (perform successive combos between characters to boost finishers), sync rate (increase puck duration by fighting well, matching trends, eating, etc), and building up fusions stars with the partner character (Collect ESPer cards by choosing the correct combo branches and collect enough to activate fusion attacks). There's a lot to take in, so it's easier to start off focusing on Neku and leaving the partner on Auto at the beginning. Gradually, you'll learn to control both though and you'll have a lot of freedom on forming your own preferred decks.

Unbranded pins will make that part of the game go by a lot more faster.

Mobile/Switch Handheld: Simplest version of the game, good for beginners and people who couldn't get into the DS version. 100% touch controls. Partner has been turned into a pin with a specific input (tap, slash, or drag) and recharge time. Light puck, sync rate, and fusion stars have been merged into one simple system. Build sync and earn boosts by performing cross combos (alternate attacks between Neku and partner). At 100, 200 and 300% sync, you can perform fusion attacks. The game is easier because the partner cannot be hurt, so you only need to focus on Neku. I feel you're more limited in what decks you can choose because of the cross combo system. For example, Shiki is controlled with taps, so you'll want to use tapping pins to make it easier to alternate hits. I highly recommend getting a capacitive stylusfor better control. I like to combine a stylus with my dominant hand and my index finger from my other hand to perform combos. Like I'll perform slash attacks with the stylus and then tap with my finger to use Shiki.

Switch Solo: Same as touch screen, only control with joy-con. You perform a motion with your hand and then press of button to activate it. This has a higher learning curve than touch because the game does a poor job of explaining the controls. However, once you understand them (look online for some tips), the game becomes a breeze. It's similar to the DS version in that people who complain that it controls poorly just never learned how to do it right. One advantage to the joy-con is that attacking and moving are separate, so mobility is a lot more precise and it becomes a lot easier to dodge attacks. However, I find it much harder to perform cross combos with the joy cons, probably because I can't use my stylus-finger technique here.

Switch 2-player co-op: Control the partner player with a second joy-con. Partner gets 3 pre-set pins with different inputs. Otherwise, they play the same as Neku. Partner is invincible, so the game becomes pretty trivial. Played this mode with my roommate who doesn't play video games much and he enjoyed it. Not much to say other than try it out if you have friends to play with.

Switch 1-player co-op: Control both characters by holding a joy con in each hand. This is the closest you'll get to the DS version. If you haven't gotten good with the single player mod, this will be a struggle. But if you know what you're doing, Ultimate mode will feel like easy mode. Most people will be in between since they're still learning. The partner is both invincible and incredibly strong and you'll be able to pull of cross combos with ease and often times stunlock enemies. And if you wanted to, you could easily beat any enemy by just dodging with Neku and attacking with the partner (but that's no fun). I think this is probably the most fun to play out of any version, but there really is no challenge.

Wait, I can use Unbranded Pins in Pork City? I thought they were blocked as well?

Graphics: Switch > Mobile > DS. Not that graphics matter much in this game.
Music: Switch > Mobile > DS. Switch has the most number of songs in the best quality. There's also the option to switch to the original soundtrack.
Tin Pin: DS > Touch >>>>>>>>>>>>>. Joy-con. Tin Pin Slammer is the best, but playing it with a joy-con is the worst.
Content: Switch has a bonus day you can play through (One day arbitrarily split into 3 parts). IMO, it's not very good. Gameplay-wise, it adds challenges such as enemies multiplying, draining health, etc. Overall, these challenges add nothing because the goal of every one of them ultimately amounts to defeat enemies as fast as possible without getting hurt which is exactly how should already be playing. There are new pins added though, which are pretty fun if you like shooting swords at things. Storywise, it's just sequel bait ending on a cliffhanger. And everything important that happens right at the end was already spoiled during the reveal trailer.

Overall, I think every version of TWEWT is still a good game. If you have easy access to the DS version, I would recommend that first and foremost. It's a unique experience that really can never be replicated anywhere else. If not, then I would recommend the switch version (it basically contains the mobile version). I would recommend starting off on solo joy cons to learn the controls and the switching to co-op as soon as you're comfortable. And then switch to handheld whenever you feel like changing things up or have to play Tin Pin. If you already played the DS version, you can always try out the switch version just to get a different experience while still getting the same story. But don't buy the switch version just for the new content - It's not worth it.

Nah, you can still use them. Makes going through the floors a breeze.

Composition is great, but the vocals are shit, the DS manages to warp it just enough that you don't notice.

and I say this as someone who enjoys Cibo Matto

Considering what modern Square is like nowadays, I think we might be better off that way. I don’t exactly trust them to capture what made TWEWY so great in the first place.
