The World Ends with You.

[blexmer]

One of my favorite games, right up there with kingdom hearts, currently replaying it.

this is the game i've gotten the worst for. one month into owning it i had logged 300+ hours of active gameplay, ontop of school.

have any of you played it? whats your opinion of it?

[Philosophy]

I've never even heard of it! What's it about, and what kind of game is it?

[Aleister Black]

I never heard of it either, so I'll just second Philosophy's question.

Okay, World Ends with You (hereafter referred to as TWEWY) is a JRPG that was released on the ds a few years ago. it's main character is one Neku Sekubara, who wakes up in the middle of a busy street is Shibuya, Japan (i think it's japan. should be.) no one seems to notice he is there, and he has a black skull pin in his possesion that he doesnt recall having before. when he inspects this pin closer he finds he can hear the thoughts of those who are around him. while he is trying to figure out what is going on he gets a text reading "Reach 104, you have 60 minutes". assuming this is spam, he deletes it. or so he thinks. the spam remains there. then a searing pain shoots through is hand and he finds he has a 60 minute timer counting down o nhis hand. weird monsters begin to attack him, but being unable to defend himself, he can only run. he enters another section of the town nearby to see the monsters attacking some of the townspeople, and taking them away, whilst passerby notice nothing. just as he begins to be defeated by the monsters himself, someone is able to notice him and tells him to make a pact. not knowing what is going on, he hurriedly agrees to what she asks, and is surrounded with some glowing light. the girl throws him a pin with an image of fire on it and tells him to use it to defend himself. following the fight he finds out he is in some sort of Game, known as the "Reapers Game" all he finds out is that if he fails the mission he will be taken away like the people in the square he saw before. the only issue is, neku doesnt know why he's in the game. he doesnt remember anything besides his name.


there is MUCH MUCH MUCH MORE to go on, as this game spans 21 (22 if you count the post game bonus storyline) "Days" of missions, utilizing 3 partners with drastically different attack methods, and 400+ different pin weapons. boasting 4 difficulties that get unlocked as the storyline progresses (easy in the first few missions, hard around the 2nd third of the story, and ultimate post game completion. the only low note is that they did make minor demonization of anti-social people, but i like the characters none the less.

characters range from a girl who is envious of her friend which causes her to never be able to see her own values, a sarcastic prick who is secretly mainpulating everything, a foolish skater punk with a heart of gold, and an officer of amazing skill who is content to stay as a peon so he can live at the heart of the action. Many many more great development of characters in this game. love this game so much.

Honorable mention to goes to the soundtrack.

Ryvius got me into this game and it was the first one I bought when I got my DS. I absolutely love it even though it's relatively difficult. It's sad that it's not as popular. Ryvius and I have seen a few really good cosplays from it as well.

I need a DS, dammit.

Since this section is for news, I guess I could validate this thread (although I swear there was another TWEWY thread somewhere else...) with some actual news.

Neku from the TWEWY will have a cameo in Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance for the Nintendo 3DS.



This marks the first time in the entire KH series that a cameo is made by a character NOT from Disney or Final Fantasy.

Plus there's speculation that the cameo may hint at a new TWEWY title. According to andriasang.com,

Responding to a question about a sequel, Nomura said that Neku's appearance could be taken as notice of something to come, adding that something is being worked on.

Just to stave off some enthusiasm (sorry, lol) that doesn't mean it'll be a new game, but I guess we'll wait and see, right?
