TWEWY x KH thread

Haven’t played the Switch port yet but here’s my experience with the DS version.
Gameplay takes place on both screens at once, with Neku activating psychic abilities such as pyrokinesis, lightning bolts, energy blades, psychic bullets, telekinesis, etc, using taps, swipes, slashing, and more on the bottom screen and your partner attacking using the directional pad or ABXY buttons on the top screen. Some pins require you to blow into the mic, you get experience for your pins the more time you haven’t played the game, you even defeat an enemy at some point by closing the DS, etc.
It may sound complicated but the game gives you a ton of options to work around and even put your partner on Auto if you can’t keep up with the dual screen gameplay. And once you get the combat down, it becomes insanely rewarding.

They both have strong ties to the protag and the story as well as have a huge role within the antagonistic forces of their game, though Riku only does this for one game and is open about it while Joshua is pretty much a secret villain. Plus fujobait.

Hopefully soon, user.

I’d think you’ll be very lost if you start off with DDD alone and the TWEWY cast are just for cutscenes. That said, I recommend giving the series as a whole a look since it’s (subjectively) fun. The story is stupid but that’s honestly part of the charm for me.

They're somewhat similar in the sense that I hate their guts at first, then they become some of my favorite characters. Riku is one of my favorite characters from KH, although Joshua pushed the envelope too far so all I can say is that I trust him

That terrible game will EAT the entire next-gen just like FF13. SE will not be making many mid or higher cost game projects.All effort and teams or at least the majority of teams go to FF7 Episodic Remake.

How do you feel about that?

It’s going to end up like FF15, isn’t it?

I don't. Disney is shit. They really are leftist bastards who make propaganda. So the sooner KH fails the better.

In good conscience? I cannot support KH because it helps Disney. And Disney's va;ues and owners are disgusting evil pieces of shit.

I've always felt like Disney actually hates that KH makes them money and they'd wish for it to sell bad so they'd abandon it (hence getting worse with their restricitons). That's why i side with Nomura desu.

It’s honestly funny how they’ve just now decided to focus more on KH after years of just letting Nomura do his own thing on the side.

>How do you feel about that?
pissed off because all of the good SE games in the last 20 years are small or medium project made by passionate developers that get killed after 1 or 2 games because SE need more money to cover their sinking major flagshiop game, like FF XIII and FF XV.

>That terrible game will EAT the entire next-gen just like FF13
Even worse, for how they are developing the first remake and the ammount of content they are adding, they cant put all of the original FF VII story in less than 7 games, and being generous considering one game every two years, thats' 14 years of development for a single remake, that shit will end in the PS6 gen and at that time the first three part of the remake will need a remaster themself.

>we got three FFXIII games and the shitstorm that was FFXV before TWEWY 2

Attached: so tiresome.png (1022x731, 643K)

Disney does resent that KH sells better than recent gaming projects like Disney Infinity and Epic Mickey. The latter is a complete failure. Not that Disney cares about Mickey, but it's a blow that the symbol of the corporation was a failure. And frankly in KH? Mickey is largely inconsequential and pointless.

The only thing Disney wants from KH is to shill their garbage films and with a larger and only INCREASING focus on Nu-Disney films KH is becoming weighed down by Disney. It's not just the restrictions, but these new films are shit. Disney is just churning out Left Leaning garbage films for a while now, and I don't want to see Disney's constant Pro-Female and Diversity shit. And yes I do mean their animated films. They're leftist junk. Especially Zootopia.

Dont forget two shit porting of TWEWY themself with remade music and poorly done aded content isntead of an actual sequel.
And they even teased all the fans with a fucking countdown to reveal just a garbage mobile port.

Nah Nomura said that the easier going Disney from the early 2000s doesn't exist anymore. So that explains the restrictions from KH3. So the more focus Disney gives to KH? The more soulless and frankly BAD the series gets. Especially if Disney starts pissing off Square Enix. Just like how Disney did to Sony recently. I'm rooting for this. Fuck Disney.

I want SE to buy the OCs from Kingdom Hearts and walk away from Disney.

LET ME WAKE YOU UP

So KH is in a weird limbo state that Disney would rather drop it but since it makes money and has some good word of mouth they can't justify outright killing it? This is kinda sad and it's also why i don't mind Nomura going full OC and/or using other Square properties.

I’ll never not be mad.

And you didnt see the worst aprt yet.
There are high chances that in the next major KH game Disney forced them to make worlds using the live action remakes as a base

No one will orget that, user.

Stay mad that FF7R is getting the attention now. KH and TWEWY are irrelevant

>Disney would rather drop it
No, Disney know that KH is a beloved series that print money, so they whant it to continue as long as it can.
the problem is that the KH series shifted from being an original ARPG that tells an original story to being transformed by nu-Disney into a mere marketing tool for new disney movies

I'm convinced that they have no plans for a sequel and just added the sequel bait to the iOS and Switch versions to make fans rebuy the game again. A New Day was rushed as fuck and was mostly reused assets (two of three bosses, multiple cutscenes and the new sprites were poorly drawn). It was obvious that they quickly threw it together, put an overwhelming amount of noise in the game to artificially lengthen it and even mock the fans for wanting a sequel by joking about all the teasing they've been doing for years.

Nomura mentioning the game needing sales for a sequel was just to shift the blame for there being no sequel onto the fans.

>Tetsuya Nomura: I can say that it has actually been increasingly difficult to get approvals from Disney. That's mainly because in the past Kingdom Hearts titles, the creator wasn't around anymore or the team that used to create those titles wasn't there anymore. There was just this one person that we would just have to go to and they would approve it and we'd be fine and good to go. But because we've been featuring recent titles, they still have existing teams for existing creators that are still working in Disney and still working on a certain title.
>That feedback process just has been a little bit more difficult than before. And each team would have a different set of rules and guidelines and they would say different things, or they would look at different things. It's just been a little different that how it used to be because Kingdom Hearts is a bigger title than it was before. I think that whenever we would bring our previous titles, a lot of people at Disney, and this is my assumption, but I do assume that they probably didn't know what Kingdom Hearts was. They'd go, "What's Kingdom Hearts? I have no idea."
>But now that it's become a bigger title, a lot more people have been involved in than before. In that sense the relationship with Disney has changed quite a bit. Emotional changes I don't really know if there has been any changes emotionally for me. But at least physically I can say those were the changes that we had with Disney.
>You mentioned that Monsters Inc. had many more guidelines than Toy Story. Was that the one that had perhaps the most guidelines or was there one that had even more?

I used Natural Puppy pins like Sweet Talk Tether to keep my distance and built up Beat’s Fusion as fast as possible.

I had Neku built around NP projectiles the entire game and now that my deck has more melee pins this fucking bossfight as to fuck it all up. My biggest issue is Uzukis purple projectiles after getting a defense Break on Beat. With half level on normal, this bossfight seems close to impossible.

shit like this and the gameplay is why I keep playing the collection, I beat KH1 and COM, now im in halloween town

Oh yeah, those are a pain. I remember having to time Beat’s blocks just right to make sure I didn’t get wiped out by all of her bullets.

I NEVER had to learn how to time blocks before. And I did 99% of week 2 on hard with a very low level. What's with the week 3 spike in difficulty? Also how much longer is the game? It's already day 5 and not a lot has happened. Week 3 feels kinda rushed to the honest.

You’re not too far off from finishing the game. Towards the end, a LOT of shit goes down and a lot of the plot elements start coming together so I recommend that you keep pressing on.

Please tell me the ending is satisfying. I don't want another game where I am thirsty for a sequel. I'll find out who the composer is, right? I'll get Shiki back, right?

>“So we used animation initially to bring it forward, but no matter how we did that it didn't quite look right, it always kind of looked a little weird, and Disney wasn't happy with that. Ultimately, what we had to do, we told them, 'with the data you guys gave us, and what we're working with, we can't make it look any better than this'.
>“What we ended up doing was remaking the hair, not from the model they gave to us. It was the one part that was like, 'oh this doesn't make sense, we're not supposed to be changing anything, but we have to change it to make it looks like it looks in the movie itself'."

I dunno. I really loved the first week and identified a huge degree with Neku up to the point where his thoughts mirrored my own, slowly starting to appreciate Shiki as a person and so on.

It varies from person to person. I couldn’t stand Neku at first but I grew to appreciate him more and more thanks to his development and he became one of my favorite characters in the end.

Man, Tatakai is so fucking good. Kind of wish they ported the new assets and music onto 3DS instead.

Why don't they do a PC port? Control Neku with the mosue or a wacom tablet and the partner with the arrow keys. Hell, why don't they have dual screen combat on the switch? It would work.

That would actually require effort from Square, user.

Also, there is no correlation between many of those characters other than the generic "main protagonsit", "main female" "protagonist rival", "main villain" and so on, you can do that with 90% of the shonen

>memes got out of hand and people took them at face value
You mean like almost all the normeis information they have about the KH series, like the 13 years wait for the enxt KH game or that the story make o sense and it's just nonsense stuff?

Hell, I can actually believe in and get invested in Sora’s and Riku’s friendship compared to Nardo and Sauce. Especially since Riku legitimately tries to redeem himself throughout the games for his fuck-ups in KH1.

Yep, he's not that bad, he just a combination of little dumb, insecurity and wanting to do the right thing, even without knowing what is the actual right thing.
It all ended up as the usual "person X is the responsable of all the evil of the story while the others are all pure hero".

Probably unrelated but I’m reminded of this one time a normie friend of mine compared Neku to Sasuke.

Attached: neku and sasuke.jpg (626x626, 90K)

Riku almost risked his entire life twice or more after KH1 just because he felt guilt of his KH1 stuff. Sasuke never did shit like that and in the end he get all his shits forgiven without even needing to apoligize for them.

Also yes, there is almost no friendship between Faguto and Sacucke, exept maybe in the Zabusa ark, after that the whole manga started a huge downhill, hitting steaming shit levels with shippuden.

Nomura was making "Nomura hairs" many years before Naruto was even thought by Kishimoto, so it's more him making Sasuke with a Nomura-like style

But Neku actually becomes likable compared to Sasuke.

Don’t forget about his bro-tier team-up with Sora in KH2 and multiple other games.

How is the Switch port? Always wanted to play TWEWY but never had a DS and I know the mobile port is donkey dick

I have a copypasta. Let me see if I can get it.

Got it
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.

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.

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 TWEWY 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.
