It should come as no surprise that I am a huge fan of The World Ends With You (TWEWY). I mean I wrote a ten-page summary of the main character arc. Sure that was technically a school project but I loved writing it nonetheless.
Up till now, I have considered TWEWY to be my second favorite RPG, right below Tales of Xillia 2. Just so I don't accidentally repeat myself I'll try to keep it short. The first game is one of the most unique games of all time. Nothing else really compares when it comes to atmosphere, combat, music, characters, or story. And while the combat has always been the reason it was so hard to recommend the game, Neo fixes that right out of the gate. It is simpler, not reliant on hardware gimmicks, but most importantly, it is still fast-paced and fun. In fact, the demo showed improvements in all the other above-mentioned areas as well. In just 5 hours, this demo has me thinking that Neo could become one of, if not, my new favorite single-player game of all time.
