Its not that good to warrant the constant admiration it gets

It bombed and they didn't even release the OST, what do you think?

It's their fault for selling it for full price

Do you think they'll leave TWEWY alone now? They've already ruined it with a non-ending.

Fuck yeah user, Entanglement was the best. You could set up a barrier around yourself to give yourself time to use heal pins, cancel enemy attacks on both sides at once, stunlock enemies, it's one of the most versatile psyches.

Did anyone get new favourites from playing the Switch version? I didn't use Lolita Bat much, if at all, on DS, now it's my favourite pin. Skull Rabbit is cool, but disappointing.

I don't get why SE insist on adding non-endings to their games, it never works unless it's KH because that will always sell. I was hoping TWEWY would be niche enough to avoid it but I guess not.

This. Game is just incredibly well-designed in so many ways. You can tell that there was a ton of passion put into it.

I loved using the Apport pins. You can tap to summon boulders for AoE damage and stunlocking enemies or drop a goddamn meteor on them. Shit was great.

They'll keep on putting it in shitty KH games, but never make a sequel.

Trying way too hard, man.

TWEWY was written as a self-contained story that had a beginning, middle and end. It was wrapped up perfectly and nothing more was needed to be said but SE kept sequel baiting the fanbase for 7 fucking years.

it's good for its time

and it did a very nice rendition of what i'd consider a VN RPG, the combat is also innovative of its console, the likes of which might not be seen again after the DS (maybe in future consoles that take advantage of more sensory output)

That’s the point, though. He’s already seen people getting erased left and right and got told that he get out of a death game for free if he does what this lady who obviously knows what’s going says. Plus, he legit changes for the better.

I loved this when I had it on DS. Had just gotten to endgame stuff when my DS and TWEWY inside got stolen by some nigger. How's the Switch port compared to the original?

I’d recommend that you finish the game first. TWEWY is a wild ride full of twists and turns and I’d hate for that to get spoiled for you.

Jellyfish. If you don't snipe those fuckers at the start of combat they can utterly wreck you on the higher difficulties.

The Dragon Noise. Fun as fuck to fight against and they have some pretty cool designs and attacks.

I’m a fan of the fox Noise, especially with how they transform into different Noise.

Sure all the tracks are awesome, but Detonation definitely stands out IMO

I wish they had actually made her unattractive. It would have been more relateable. Shiki wanting to look as attractive as her friend doesn't work when she already IS attractive herself.

Compared to her friend, she feels that way. And it’s not just the attractiveness part. According to her, Eri also has more friends, more smarts, is confident, and is overall more talented than her.

What I love about TWEWY is just how cohesive it is as a package. I mean, you have 8 different battle mechanics going on at once.

>brands
>setting up pins

Attached: tumblr_phs273xtY61tv85dh_1280.png (1280x719, 735K)

Yeah, the game is insanely well-designed in that regard. I also love how it gives you a ton of options in how you want to tackle the game, whether its the difficulty level or the way you set up your movesets. It’s incredibly flexible in that regard and it’s presents this in a way that never once compromises its depth.

>you can get EXP for your attacks just by not playing the game
>you can set your partner on Auto until you git gud at the battle system
>you can retry a battle you lost on either your current difficulty or on easy
>you can chain multiple battles at once for better rewards
I’m legit surprise that there’s no other games that copied this from TWEWY.

>TWEWY sequel that takes place during nights instead of days
god I want it

That would be sick.

Attached: background concepts.jpg (600x450, 73K)

It's because the mechanics are designed to strengthen each other. Let's look at the basics of the battle system.

You've got Neku on the bottom screen using various touch inputs and the occasional mic input for the player to control on their dominant hand, and the Partner with their combo map on the top screen to be controlled with the player's off hand. The player can't look at two screens at once, so they have to switch their focus between them. This is why the Light Puck exists, to draw the player's eyes to one screen in particular and have them go back and forth as they pass the puck by having the puck give bonus damage and having this bonus damage increase as it is passed faster.

The Partner combat is simple so you can always reliably dole out damage on the top screen when testing new pin combinations on the bottom screen, so the gameplay is a little consistent no matter how you've customised Neku in combat. Threads and Pins are connected by brand bonuses to encourage the player to have a consistent fashion and help narrow down the choices of what threads to wear. Food is tied into the chain-battle system by having it so you don't just grind for EXP and Pins, but for for consuming food as well, not to mention how it's connected to Shutdown PP in encouraging the player to play the game daily, but not for too much each day.

The way they've connected everything together means that the player has a fuckton of control over how they play the game, whether they're using a bunch of Natural Puppy bullet pins and Joshua with threads focusing on rapid puck passing, longer combo panels, and initial fusion stars, or a mix of J of the M and Wild Boar melee pins with Shiki wearing threads focused on stat boosts and Neku crossdressing in the Lapin Angelique Suicide Special.

It's a game about style and individuality, and the message of how important individuality is reflected in the entire battle system by making combat about finding YOUR unique style.

Will do, user. This'll liven up my music library quite a bit.

Either Hybrid or Long Dream 1980s, with Three Minutes Clapping and Deja Vu being runner ups

Oh, definitely. TWEWY is fucking incredible and one of the few games I would rank a 10/10.

What other games would you rank 10/10?

Should I get the Switch port? I've never played it before.

If you have a DS or 3DS, play it there instead.
The combat didn't translate very well since it leans heavily on the dual screen aspect of the DS. It's still worth playing, but it's watered down.

For 50 bucks? No, not 1 bit. Maaaaybe on sale.
If you can, get it on DS, that's the most perfect way to play it.

Off the top of my head?
>RE4
>DMC3
>Jet Set Radio Future

TWEWY is currently tied with RE4 as number one.

Good taste.

Definitely get it on DS if you can. The combat is the most fleshed out both mechanically and thematically.

Oh yeah, I forgot the absolutely retarded price tag. Why did square think that was reasonable?

I hope that a sequel is already locked in and in the works, the sequel bait was on another level in the Switch version, it straight up ended the game on a massive cliffhanger and said "A New Game Begin2" and they joked about the sequel teasing they've been doing.

SRPG TWEWY would work ok, but you'd need a give a few more party members or turn pins/noise into allies.
ARPG DeSu would be tough, I guess the Raidou games would be the most obvious model to copy.

I respect why you'd say that, but the state square enix is in, it'd be a tragedy. Selling you the ending, turning it into episodic releases, or simply failing to attempt to match the quality of gameplay in TWEWY 1 is to be expected.

Attached: haibane1.gif (500x451, 675K)

The 3DS library had very few gems in comparison, I feel as if devs experimented less.

Games were relatively cheap and easy to produce for and the design of the DS allowed for some truly innovative and unique gameplay.

Attached: Best DS Games.jpg (2635x1482, 975K)

That's because the 3DS's gimmick compared to the DS had absolutely nothing to do with gameplay, but resources and time had to be dedicated to it. There was nothing to ignite the imagination like the DS's weird new touch screen/two screens combo.

Yeah, and the Switch seems to hamper development more than anything by trying to cater to two audiences at once. The Switch port for TWEWY really irritated me since they tried to go two different routes with the gameplay, for the tablet and TV, instead of concentrating on one.
I hope any sequel would not follow in those footsteps.

Basically these. Unfortunately, with just how much it costs to make games nowadays on newer consoles, I don’t think we’ll something like the DS for a long time.

Man, I can’t wait to see TWEWY 2 have its character development split up into DLC episodes like FFXV and come across as half-assed and unfinished in general.

Please don’t remind me.

Oh God, no.

>QTE simulator
That’s a new one.

Jesus Christ, he sounds like a huge faggot. Let me guess, he’s an FFXV fanboy as well?

Not only a XV hardcore fanboy, he even bought the day one special edition. He even shoot me down when I tried to explain to him that XV is a terrible game, especially due to the mess of the episode DLC model (which is just a big fat scam for a half-assed game). But he can't retort since I showed him that the game is just Hold X to Awesome Win by putting a coin, held with duct tape, on the attack button during a battle.

Also, he is a massive KHfag. He defends that game even though it is an insult to the fans. What a massive faggot.

You know what's worse? He said that TWEWY is a glorified VN, and Neku is a terrible protagonist, and, to put a nail to his coffin, the dual screen combat is unnecessarily complicated for the player. Again he is a massive faggot, and when I showed him the photos of the game design book that praises TWEWY and show how well designed is, he says that it is fake as shit.

You forgot

Bought my DSi last month for TWEWY and Ghost Trick. What's the third one?

999

999. The first game of the nonary games. Play the second one as well, and avoid the third one like the plague.

9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors. You're in luck, it's another DS game that was somewhat diminished in being ported to another platform, PC in this case.

The gameplay is basically a series of escape the room puzzles, I recommend you give it a go.

>the dual screen combat is unnecessarily complicated for the player
Make sure to show him this. If a man with one hand can beat TWEWY, then frankly, he just sucks at vidya.

Was that new boss in Final Remix any good?
I watched some gameplay of it and it seemed to be extremely long with forced phases.

I did, even with the "Get better at video games, man" speech. He dimisses any comment that doesn't praise the games HE likes, and sucks Squeenix's throbbing cock.

I still remember the thread that this got posted in. Was glorious as fuck.

Then frankly, there’s no saving him from his shit taste. Be sure to show him the New York Times article, though, to rub in how crappy his taste is.

Honestly, it is not worth it. Let him drown on his shit taste. I will just replay TWEWY and love every second of it.

Good plan.

Never knew how much I needed this.

I just want a version of TWEWY with the high quality sprites from the ports and some of the music (TATAKAI), and the dual screen combat. I'm thinking that this is doable on a 3DS homebrew.

Alright then, riddle me this. If they were going to announce it, why haven't they yet? It's been 7 fucking years

God bless stump user.

Because the devs are trapped on a Reaper's Game where Nomura is the GM.

That actually explains a lot.

Why would they tease a sequel after 12 years while Nomura is stuck in FF7 hell?
Square is an enigma.

Expect nothing, still get disappointed. I won't trust modern Square for a TWEWY sequel.

The only way a TWEWY2 would be good is if they let another studio handle it and got the OG writers back

Pretty much this. But as I don't see that happening anytime soon, I will brace for the Monkey's Paw effect after the KHfags and some of the normal fags show interest in TWEWY and we get a watered down sequel that dashes over the character development of the first game.

Nah, TWEWY was a group effort. It would require at least the artists and music directors back, and I would say you would want the minds behind the gameplay too to devise something unique to the Switch.

I can already see it now.

You stole that from another TWEWY thread

I’m the one who made it, dude.

Yeah, they published it after all. Same with Fullmetal Alchemist actually, which is funny since I remember there being a thread a little while back that considered a team up between Edward Elric and Neku.

Square Enix could totally make a version of TWEWY where Neku teams up with popular shonen characters from anything serialised in Gangan comics.

>Tetsuya Nomura (Creative Producer and Main Character Designer):
>I’ve had a chance to attend various events in different countries during the 11 years following the release of The World Ends with You. On many occasions, I have been interviewed by both the fans and the media, who have told me how much they want me to make a sequel for The World Ends with You. We’ve been looking for an opportunity, and there were a few times we tried to get it started, but time passed without it ever coming to realization.
feels bad

strawpoll.me/18349843

Better to keep it shelved, man. Nomura loves the game as well, but I'm sure he knows that they can't make something really good for a TWEWY sequel without the original team. Some of the team have expressed their desire to make a sequel, but another stuff is probably making them apart for the idea.

>Kingdom Hearts but Neku teams up with characters like Edward Elric and Maka Albarn
I’d play it.

What do you think Nomura’s Noise form is?

No, you're not.

That's what my brain tells me too, but hearing about their enthusiasm about the game and seeing all the time that has passed saddens me.
>Kando: With this passionate response, it's unbelievable that the game is 11 years old. We on the development team acknowledge it, and we do not want to let it go to waste. If we can, we will make something new. I'm looking forward to creating another chance to meet you all like this again.
>Nomura: I did suffer a disappointment today when my ramen was soggy, but if we do decide to make a sequel, then we will hold another event, and there I want to have proper ramen (laughs). Kantatsu (nickname for Kando) is working very hard, so please wait for the day when we can give you some more information.

Anyone got an APK link for android? I really want to replay it

An oversized cat with belt and zippers.

I know, user. It hurts me and saddens me to see that they want to make a proper sequel. Maybe they will the chance later on, but I'm not sure if it will hold up to the expectations that the first game, being a game packed with so much content that they could put out more on the cartridge, put on the table for the fans. And that scares me the most about a sequel.

>Some sort of multi-world Reapers' Game has Neku going to different worlds and teaming up with different manga protagonists that SE has the rights to
>Soul Eater, Fullmetal Alchemist, Black Butler Akame Ga Kill, Magical Girl Spec-Ops Asuka
There's a lot of series they could draw from. If they leaned into the manga angle and tied it into the message it might actually end up being pretty interesting.

I think I remember that thread. Shit was fun to discuss, especially with how Ed’s Fusion and pins would be like.

>Nomura's noise form is Cattus Cantus

>Akame ga Kill
Neku would probably do pretty well in that manga considering how OP he is.

>Sometimes he just likes to laze around like his cats
>He is a chill GM but sometimes he gets pressured by the composer and has to erase some devs and reapers to keep the game going

Could he beat Esdeath, though?

>implying Esdeath wouldn’t want to fuck him instead

Well, he does have experience by getting the ladies wet. He might even make some comments about how Esdeath reminds him of Konishi.

Now that I think about it, he does fit her requirements.

It’s a bit of a guilty pleasure for me. It’s stupid and hilariously edgy as fuck but I had fun reading it.

how the fuck do i multitask in this game? its so difficult for me to do both battles at once

Follow the light puck and focus on the character that has it. It will make the game so much easier.

It is fun, though a bit retarded towards the middle part and the end.

Will we ever find out who she is?

Attached: Solo_Remix_Unknown.png (960x640, 338K)

Pay attention to however has the light puck at the moment and try to complete a combo on their end to pass it to the other guy. Doing so helps increase your attack output. It also helps to keep your characters either moving or blocking during those times as well. Also, a neat trick is that the power of a healing pin is also increased when Neku has the puck on him so keep that in mind.

I still think she’s Neku’s and Shiki’s long lost daughter from the future.

Sure
In Kingdom Hearts 4 which comes out in 10 years

I’m calling it now. She’s an Angel or some shit that’s on a mission involving Joshua somehow.

I can see that happening.

Pay attention to the light puck and whoever has it. Also make sure to constantly experiment with new pins.

We may never know.

She's the composer of Shinjuku and is sent by the angels to assassinate Joshua but she loses her memories and is forced to do the Reaper's Game

Maybe one day, user.

I've mentioned I didn't wat Square Enix to even try it. It's not something I',m happy about saying, but I really think whatever they'd try now would be worse than TWEWY having one great game and then never getting a sequel.

Attached: haibane2.gif (540x304, 1.89M)

Yeah, I can see what you mean. Lord knows Squeenix can’t manage their IPs for shit nowadays.

TWEWY should've been left as a once off on the DS, it told it's story and everything was wrapped up nicely. Nothing more needs to be said.

I agree with you, user. Better have enjoyed life than extend its suffering by having a meaningless sequel.

>still no patch that makes pins evolve no matter the type of exp
Someone please, fuck, then the DS version will be truly perfect

If a new TWEWY game came out episodically, charging $30 or more for each part, making a full game cost more than $60 in total, would I buy it?
If it had a DLC or a full semi-sequel game that contained the ending, would I buy it?
If they decided to completely remake the combat in the manner of FF15, would I consider buying it?
I'd be tempted to see what happens, because I love TWEWY that much. But giving square money for treating the consumer like that is a philosophically shitty practice. I have no interest in seeing these behaviors accelerate, and I don't want to contribute to that happening.

Either that or a spiritual successor. Don’t use the same characters and world but build upon those concepts and general game design.

>The power of a healing pin is increased when Neku has the puck on him
Holy shit I've cleared the game and unlocked Ultimate mode and this never occurred to me, thank you user.

I will take a spiritual successor based on another city that is a melting pot as Shibuya. They even said that they had a concept to make the Reaper's Game globally, with each UG having its own set of rules.

Yeah, it’s one of those fun little details in the game. I also love how you can use the Egg Bomb and Psychokinesis pins in tandem to throw what is essentially exploding cars at Noise.

TWEWY and KIU are the objectively best games of their respective handhelds though. They even both get criticized by scrubs for the same damn reason that they can't just git gud.

Kinda funny how people even think KIU would be objectively better if ported to the Switch with plain ass twin stick controls as if the game's pacing and difficulty balancing was at all designed for that shit instead of the quick and fluid stylus controls. I guarantee it'd transition about as well as TWEWY did in its Switch version.

I felt bad for Shades. All the guy wanted to do was protect Shibuya and, in the end, all he got was Erasure for it.

I actually wondered about what his Entry Fee was. Maybe his ability to interact with Shibuya? We never really see him leaving the pad.

cringe

That would explain some things. Also, I always loved how the game highlighted the similarities between him and Neku. The headphones, their distaste for other people, their love for music, etc...
Only the difference is that Neku learned to expand his world while Kitaniji tried to forcibly overwhelm Shibuya’s own consciousness with his own will.

>cringe
You need to go back

Every week the bait lowers in quality

I liked that too. Shades basically represented what Neku would be like if he hadn’t learned his lesson in the game and just continued rejecting other people.

It’s kind of funny in a way. People like to keep posting about games they genuinely enjoy and all they have is nothing but bait and mindless shitposting. Would be hilarious if it weren’t so sad,

>twewy 2 has you fight future adult Neku, who suspiciously looks like Shades
>even has TIME STANDS STILL to top it off
would be crazy.

>tfw you genuinely still enjoy vidya
Feels good, man.

Speaking of, what kind of new pin/psychs would you guys like to see if TWEWY 2 were a thing? The original game already had a shit ton of abilities but it’s always fun to try and come up with more.

I think it works be pretty cool to get a pin that allows you to controls shadows. Or a pin that allows you to stop time and pull off some quick combos.

What is this "zetta" and how is it slow?

Zetta literally means sextillion so essentially Sho is just saying the word fuck through math puns.

I literally want was was said in the post you replied to, Time Stop Pins. I also want Final Remix's Summoned Swords in a game that has the stride cross battle system, and some more music themed psyches like the microphone one that summons speakers. More elemental moves, a greater variety of bullets and melee attack pins, and more stuff like Entanglement.

Noise summoning Pins would be cool too, kind of like DMC5's V.

The pins from the fake Final Remix leak sounded cool.
>“Aqua Globe”, you scope up Noise in a water sphere and it bursts, it's ineffective to larger noise and Reapers, but does damage them. Another is called “Spin Cycle”, you create a miniature tornado.

I never realized that until now.

Holy fuck, Aqua Globe sounds like a way cooler water Psyche than Splash Core.

In the sequel, do any of you think that power will finally stop being unknown?

She looks like Kairi.

When we find out who Mr.Twister is.

How about a psych that summons an electric guitar for you to create sound waves with and confuse enemies?

And also what the fuck a "psycho cane" is supposed to be.

Don’t forget about finding out who needs more candy cane.

Not to mention that stuff about taking a bow to the moon.

Always thought it would be neat to have a psych that acts like Zero’s Twin Dream from Mega Man X. A clone of yourself that copies your every move for twice damage.
