Okay I resisted up until today (I did play this on DS but never completed). Decided it was worth my money. Here goes nothin!
The script is fantastic, and I'd forgotten more of it (and the plot in general) than I realized since I'd played this on DS back in the day. I was perfectly happy reading it all again, personally. If you really don't want to, I'd probably pass on the game altogether since that's one of the main highlights. The combat's still very fun, but less unique than in the DS version.
Spoiler Except you never see what the real Shiki actually looks like. FF Dimensions got a minor widescreen update, so it's a possibility. I wouldn't hold my breath though. You have to beat the game first, no other way around it. The original DS game was the first game I finished with 100% completion. I regret nothing.
Im assuming this has already been asked and answered, but can someone link me to a post or site where I can become better at combat? (Not just the pin evolution thing, but I am just starting playing and I am only getting C or D score.. pretty bad) unless that score just naturally improves as you get better pins?
wtf okay i guess I am the only one playing this game, but can someone kindly help? I am a fair bit better at combat now, but some pins I cant figure out how to use at all. Earthquake / earthshake. wtf I cant seem to trigger the pin whatsoever
If i remember correctly you have to literally "scratch" the surface of the screen somewhere next to neku to trigger it! Tell me if it helps
Nothing. it says 'scratch empty space' and i have tried everything I can think of, on enemies, off enemies, on neko, off neko, up down left to right, zig zags.. nothing triggers it.
Scratch = a rapid back and forth motion. The direction doesn't matter (although the iPhone 5 has a problem with rapid diagonal movements, I've read). If it says scratch empty space then you need to scratch empty space - not on Neku, not on an enemy, probably not on an obstacle too.
that is what I was doing, Ive figured it out, it was the rapidly that was thowing me I guess. I have to do it for like 1-2 full seconds before it registers which seems really slow considering the pace of battle. Anyways - favorite pins you guys are using? Mid game to late game?
Not 'scratch' ones, because I have difficulty getting those to activate too I haven't played TWEWY recently enough to remember the name of the pins I was using most. I used the best Force Rounds and Patrol Rounds pins I had a lot, but apart from that I don't really remember. I was collecting the secret reports, and was using whatever pins I wanted to level up apart from when I was facing a boss. I've got too many iPhone / iPad games I've started but not finished...
my favorite pin: midgame: Blue Blood Burns Blue Yoshimitsu Ice Pillar Tin Pin Artist Her Royal Highness Late Game: Darklit Planets Lightning Rook Excalibur Tigris Drake
Okay I have all the darklit planets except the one in pork city. Except I cant get into it (Beat wont let me). Im in Another Day, what do I have to do first to get in there?
In-game, perfectly. At all times, if memory does not disserve. Loading times and transitions between screens and menus are very short, but not none-existent.
