neo twewy is an incredibly good sequel that does a great job of extrapolating the mechanics and creative ethos of the first game into something fit for modern consoles. I also generally like the new cast members, the party has fun dynamics and the villains are pretty charismatic.

the only complaints I really have are that the pacing sucks in the latter parts of act 2 and the postgame scavenger hunt doesn't feel as developed. also the plot of the switch port exclusive segments directly sets up the sequel and a bunch of the details of the between games period is kinda hard for me to follow as a result... but that's at least partially on me for not looking it up beforehand.

but like most of the campaign was really fun and there were a lot of inventive uses for the main narrative devices

#my fave day was the one where rindo comes to at the end of the day and has to memento his way back through everything #a close second is the one where the gang investigates all the urban legends #I kind of miss the stipulation that the post game boss hunt had to be on hard or ultimate #but I mean nothing's stopping me from shooting for that anywayso w/e #I also miss the prank items with stupid high stats and bravery requirements #it seems like the croaky panic brand is supposed to kind of represent the vibe of those things but they're statted like regular clothes #and it's a pain that neo doesn't list boss noise in the chapters menu and there's no indication of where the time trials were each day
