Thread 717744063

Finished it earlier (DS ver) for the first time, and really enjoyed it.
What are your thoughts on it?

>>717744063 (OP)
kino. i played the switch version, back when it was new the ds version was too hard for me, i tried a bunch of times to push through but never could, but the switch one was dumbed down enough for my stupid ass.
i recommend the sequel, story is a bit too referential of the first at points but it's also got pretty unique gameplay, and the music is still great.

>>717744231
I don't know too much about the sequel, aside from the gameplay being extremely different. I'll probably get to it eventually.

One of the best jrpgs, pushing the envelope with the gimmick ds gameplay but earns it's keep because it's well designed. great story and post-game that basically satisfies any want from more lore and backstory, harder boss fights..flavour was on point. Still have to set some time aside for that sequel

Best game on the platform and maybe a top 10 best videogame ever

It's awesome

>>717744063 (OP)
I liked it and should probably replay it sometime. Haven't played Neo yet.

>>717744063 (OP)
I remember searching for it for years as a kid and no store near me ever had a copy, played it later on the switch but it wasn't the same. TWEWY, Hotel Dusk and Another Code were the games I wanted the most back in the day but I never got.

>>717744063 (OP)
I don't understand the series, or its story hook. I found it boring and dropped it after a couple of hours. It didn't seem to be going anywhere. There are way better Nintendo DS games than this """"classic"""".

>>717744063 (OP)
best game on the DS IMO
ambitious gameplay that makes full use of every feature of the DS, excellent (albeit somewhat cheesy) story, protagonists experience real character growth

>I found it boring and dropped it after a couple of hours
give it another go and try to reach the end of the week

>>717744063 (OP)
It's so good that it makes the sequel looks so much worse in comparison

>>717744063 (OP)
If there's ever a game that made me fully appreciate Nintendo's hardware gimmicks, it was this. Absolutely loved it back in the day, possibly loved the sequel even more.

>>717744063 (OP)
it was good. cool unique rpg with unique visuals. overall good

>>717746910
>Best game on the platform and maybe a top 10 best videogame ever
Absolutely not you delusional fuck. easily top 10 new ips on the DS but not even in the top 10 in the DS catalog overall

>>717744063 (OP)
i dont lik ethe gameplay

>>717744063 (OP)
Best game on the ds.
What do people think of the switch version? I tried it but just ended up missing the original combat system. This is one of those games thats never gonna feel right on anything other than its original hardware.

>>717744063 (OP)
I remember getting filtered by the combat the first time I tried it. Need to get good to form an actual opinion

>>717749056
>not even in the top 10 in the DS catalog overall
Name the top 10 then I need to find more stuff to put in my backlog

still haven't played the sequel because of trannylation

>>717749583
is that for real?

>>717749635
yes

>>717749583
>>717749735

>>717748961
this image is amazing

>>717749056
nah, it mogs even ghost trick

>>717744063 (OP)
I liked it, but I had to switch to Easy for the final boss back when I played it, so I wasn’t very good at the game it seems. I think I prefer NEO, except for one day that seemed too long for its own good.

Alright thread, what's your go-to pin loadout?

>>717752546
>one day that seemed too long for its own good
It was definitely week 1 day 5, it's a pain in the ass to replay

>>717744063 (OP)
great ost, an interesting story with well-written characters, memorable art and smooth gameplay.
a killer game that uses the ds's gimmick well.
i'd love to replay it [someday].

I exactly found the dialogue between the characters to be predictable and clichéd. Again, I didn't finish it, but I felt strongly they're like "omg let's show him like, be totally a loner and hate friendship... because then he can like meet people and learn that being together is actually awesome."

Can you really tell me that this isn't what the story does if I keep playing, cuz this shit is trite to me.

I almost picked up Sonic Chronicles but got this instead because it looked cooler.

>>717749056
>not even in the top 10 in the DS catalog overall
Name 10 good games on the DS that aren't TWEWY or Pokémon

>>717755065
iirc the game's first spoken lines are basically him telling everyone off.
neku's character development throughout the game is predictable, sure, but it's fun to watch him change.

>>717757835
oops, meant for >>717757047

>>717757835
Neku was definitely a /v/ user before the char development

>>717757831
Knights in the Nightmare
Ghost Trick
Jump Ultimate Stars
LostMagic
Mario Kart DS
Etrian Odyssey 1-3
999
Meteos
TWEWY's better than all of them

The original for the DS was one of my favorite DS games, and I absolutely loved it. I enjoyed the characters and getting to see them grow through the story, the music was phenomenal and I still listen to some of the soundtrack sometimes, I liked the art style and aesthetic, and the gameplay was really fun. Messing around with all the pins and getting good at manually controlling my partner felt so nice when it all clicked and I found a good set.

I loved it so much I bought a second copy on DS to loan out to my friends so they could play it and I wouldn't have to lose my save file. The iOS port (and announcement) were terrible for me, and Neo was okay, but the original is still one of my favorite games.

TWEWY and NTWEWY threads were the only peaceful and fun threads on this shitpile of a board. No culture wars, no racism, no consolefagging, just people enjoying the game, characters, and story.
I fucking miss it.

>>717757835
Great. You just convinced me there's nothing to gain from playing it. You're one of those who go "Muh character development" but it's literally just
>Boy was sad
>Then boy became happy and learned the value of friendship
>Wow
The gall of someone in this thread to say this mogs Ghost Trick lol. That game at least has an interwoven plot that unfolds and reveals a bigger picture.

>That game at least has an interwoven plot that unfolds and reveals a bigger picture.

Tell me you never played to week 2 without telling me you haven't played to week 2.

It's too bad, because you'll actually never get to meet the best character that makes the game worth playing

>>717744063 (OP)
one of my fave games of all time. was formative of my tastes because i played it at the right age. (15)

>>717744063 (OP)
Suffered the entire way even in normal, because my brain is apparently monocore and just cant pay attention to both screens. For comparision i could beat Cantus in Ultimate Lv1 in NEO.

>>717762607
TWEWY didn't even come close to the top of my list.

>>717757831
Devil Survivor
Radiant historia
Mario & Luigi bowser inside story
Golden Sun:Dark Dawn( not as good but still enjoyable)

>>717763197
Those aren't the DS classics. They're
>Hotel Dusk
>Ace Attorney
>Sonic Rush
>Ghost Trick
>Partners in Time, not Bowser's Inside Slop
Radiant Historia is slop.

>>717754960
I think you’re right, the day you have to time travel a lot.

>>717763321
i never liked how the item were the special powers in panthers in time.

>>717762992
how is it humanly possible to not like Scribblenauts

>>717764141
I admire it but I always judge games based on how I feel after they've stood the test of time.
Scribblenauts doesn't. It's actually slop the more you keep playing it.

>>717747990
Thanks for telling us that your opinion, not even just on the game but towards anything, can be safely ignored. We appreciate it

>>717749583
Same, im waiting for some autist to make annunfucked translation. Hopefully itll only take 20 years

>>717762992
Damn ive seen some garbage taste on this website but... just damn
>>717761880
The storys just well done man, although personally anyone playing anygame for just the story isnt a true gamer. Twewy shines when you crank it to hardmode and build different pin combos.

>>717744063 (OP)
Underrated classic, now watch the cutscenes from A New Day and then go play NEO.

>>717764721

Sounds boring and I already thought the combat was pointless.

Those are universally correct rankings.

Filtered.

What would a hypothetical 3rd one be like?

Which universe?
