To go quickly is foolish. To go slowly is prudent. Not to go; that is wisdom.
3 minutes into the demo, I see the game is going to keep the great tradition of close up ramen bowls. Good.

I feel that the minimap is going to take some time to get used to. The “top” of the screen should be north, damnit.

This is probably all I will say about the game until release but if anyone wants non spoiler info like how food and clothes work or other mechanical stuff let me know and I can make a small effort post about them.

Is there Ramen porn? y/n

Having played the first day of the demo, I'm afraid that teammates are going to be less distinctive with the lack of "combat minigames" the original had. Not that I could keep track of what they were doing on the other screen besides mashing the d-pad, but still... Riding a huge cat plushie that shoot lasers (I think it did that?) never got old.

Should I do dives on Normal difficulty? It seems the only thing that matters is time.

Second question: I've gained VIP levels while fighting. Does anyone know how this works? I'm not sure whether you have to fight on the map where the shop is or whether it's a matter of fighting while using threads/pins of that brand.

Is there a way to get the Goth shop to VIP 3 before the first Scramble? You’re making me paranoid

Decided to pick up the game again after dropping it on the second Scramble. Good plan, except that I still have to do the Scramble.

Do I need top place for anything?

Thanks. Knowing myself, trying to get first prize will make me drop the game again.
