W2D3 I thought I'd made a mistake separating into twos for the last part of the slam but having all four back together again was so cathartic after drawn out duo battles. Also, I'd spoiled myself that Beat was back in the game but I didn't expect him to be 'Neku'. I loved that twist.

Araxxor posted:Backing up that if you want to trivialize Scramble Slams later and you couldn't be bothered to topscore the first time, come back with Ultimate unlocked. Even while speedrunning you get a ridiculous amount of points. I'm glad to hear that, I just rushed each one on normal figuring I'd come back to it later. I'm curious to see how she becomes a party member. . How many party members do you have when you're at another day? I'd rather not hear who if that matters

Nagi's weird noises are one of the best bits of the game for me. My favorite is Beat's "I feel dat" to Fret saying he feels like they're basically the same person.

I keep expecting him to take that wig off at some point. That wasn't what I expected his actual hairstyle to look like. W2D6 I liked the direction they went with Motoi. I was expecting to find out that even Rindo's time travel couldn't save him, but revealing his true colors with more context each time you go back was a really cool twist. Plus Rindo panicked for no reason and Motoi just gets back up anyway!

Regalingualius posted:Yeah, and the reveal was being built up after you first met him, since pretty much all of the other Purehearts were shown to be assholes, in direct contrast to his nice guy facade. That's a valid point with hindsight. I didn't necessarily see that as foreshadowing considering Kanon is nothing but friendly to you while her members were all dicks, unless that's also foreshadowing Speaking of foreshadowing, regarding the first week's final boss. Those white antlers are meant to portray he's got Plague noise in him, like with Sho and Taboo noise?

Question about W3D2 boss. What determines who's available during the crucifixion phase? Sometimes Nagi would randomly pop in to help but mostly it was my corner pins that could be used and it wasn't enough to break any of them. I'm sure there's a strategy that doesn't require 300% remix

W3D4 I was getting so hyped up for that tight against Sho, and when I used my remix on him, he went into a t pose where I couldn't even hurt him.

Finally beat the main story. Haven't had a game's story hit that hard in a long time, but my only regret is watching the trailer a couple days after starting because I was waiting for the destroyed Shibuya and Kubo looking over Rindo with his broken pin.

grieving for Gandalf posted:I played maybe half the demo and found it fun enough, but does the combat mostly involve spamming what abilities you have off cooldown or does it get more intricate later? Adding onto the above, your focus in combat should be on creating 'beatdrops' for combo potential. Spamming is a habit that will screw you over when the difficulty picks up, and you should look for an attack pattern with your pins so that you always have one to use.

Post-game spoilers. I know it would ruin everything about going back through the chapters but it would have been funny if replaying old chapters accounted for Kubo being exorcised from existence. MorningMoon posted:
I loved their relationship, but my favorite bit was that Shoka was so ready to keep denying she was Swallow until Rindo said, "You told me in a different timeline" and she was like "drat it!" I liked that Joshua's 'game' only worked because Rindo was too dense to check his inboxes. Everything about W3D7 was awesome, though. Especially the final boss; dodging to the beat during the fireball phase to build groove was a fun gimmick. FireWorksWell fucked around with this message at 06:58 on Oct 7, 2021 |

serefin99 posted:No, but each piece of graffiti directly correlates to a trophy. The graffiti you get for getting all other graffiti correlates to the platinum trophy, which you get for getting all other trophies. Thanks for the clarification. Peewi posted:There's a graffiti for collecting every pin and one for mastering 300 pins. So you have to collect every pin, but you don't quite have to master all of them to get every graffiti. I can't check right now but wouldn't that discrepancy be because there's a good few pins that can't be mastered? The yen and material pins?

Larryb posted:On another note, it’s probably been mentioned before but fun little detail I noticed: in the Ayano fight, she will almost never target Shoka with her crucifixion attack. However, if the latter is in your party during the Another Day rematch Ayano will do so the second the fight starts love that the justification for the shoulder lizard is that she took Shoka's pet.

Larryb posted:Though at this point I’m starting to think that even if Minamimoto and/or Neku had actually succeeded in shooting Joshua it probably wouldn’t have killed or even hurt him that much (not sure if Angels are flat out immortal or just unimaginably powerful though, at the very least members of their own kind can take them out as evidenced by Haz exorcising Kubo) I'm curious if there's a big difference between how powerful Haz and Kubo were. Not that we get to actually see Kubo use any of his strength.

Yeah, Haz says as much when Rindo talks to him and your point is correct. I was just curious about whether Kubo could have actually stood his ground if he wasn't tuned down to UG levels; like how bad are power discrepancies for these beings we barely understand?

I don’t feel like Neku or even Beat stole the spotlight away from the NEO crew, but idk if I wanna say anymore right this minute before you actually get to see the ending play out. Hell, I think Beat joining helped flesh the NEO crew out. I liked how he and Fret were instantly bros.
