Yo-Kai Watch 2 comes overseas tomorrow, Yo-Kai Watch 3 is expecting a big update soon in japan, and Wibble Wobble/Puni still sucks. How goes your experiences with the series? Did you quit at 1 like everyone else because it was boring as sin, or did you learn nip and go all the way to 3?
It's a kid's game, it's pretty easy. Basic runes and all that. It's really easy to read from context. Yes. While it may look boring, the game is surprisingly hands on when you get to around midgame, especially in YW3. The main game is still on the easy side, though, with difficulty ramping up during the bonus endgame stages. youkai-pedia.com/yw2 , enjoi.sakura.ne.jp/youkai-watch2/ and the yw3 alternatives are really helpful if you use a translator and context, though there might be some guides in actual english. Bad. The translation is awful so far. Not quite jelly filled donut-teir translation, but yo-kai names are translated awfully, and some of the dialog gets really "THIS IS DEFINITELY AMERICA LOOK AT THE TRADITIONAL AMERICAN RICE FIELDS AS WE EAT TRADITIONAL AMERICAN MANJUU DONUTS" feeling. They are trying to hide the fact that the game takes place in japan, and it's going to be funny to see them try to translate YW3.
Update 2.0 is supposed to add a co-op dungeon. What else they're being very secretive about.

Yo-Kai Watch 1 is pretty comfy. How did they improve it in 2?
Julian Campbell
oh baby I've been looking thanks user
Tyler Morgan
I'm not feeling any of the designs. I know they're yokai, and they're meant to be portrayed as goofy or gross due to what their purpose in the afterlife is, but none of them really stick out for me. I mean, I'm not expecting Blaziken or Lucario levels of furfaggotry either. Is this wrong of me?
The only one I have to absolutely like is Rhinormous and his cousin(s), only because I have a boner for Hercules beetles.

You're just not looking hard enough, every monster collection game has filler.
Joshua Lee
Why can't we talk about this on /mon/? I'm not against it on Holla Forums, I just want that poor board to get some life put into it.
Wyatt Morales
Eh, i'm not against making threads on other boards, but the threads on Holla Forums barely get traffic as it is.
Asher Jenkins
They do?
Christopher Watson
Thanks a bunch for the direct links, I don't mind the faggot on 3dsiso using adfly but the fucking site just kept refreshing for me. Never had that problem before.
David Wilson
No problem, adfly is cancer and should've died when autismblox modders tried to use it.

anottha bump, any of you goys see anything especially bad in the english translation of YW2? The main thing I'm seeing is bad voice acting and some really bad names, like changing Hanako to Toiletta.
Elijah Miller

I might've fugged up on which one to download.

This is slapstick tier comedy, but fuck if it ain't funny.
Gavin Davis
everything is funny as long as whisper or jib gets hurt in the end.
Easton Long
Up until release I kept reading about how befriending was somehow easier in this game, but I'm not seeing how. Was that a blatant lie? I was enjoying myself for the first few hours, but my fucking god is it irritating to spend at least 30+ minutes trying to get an ugly E-rank I'll never use while utilizing popular + favorite foods. I enjoy the mindless grind when it comes to later stuff that actually feels rewarding or worth the effort, but when you make even the simplest task in the early game feel like a total slog then I start to lose interest fast.
I know it's a kid's game, so I expect to cringe a bit despite enjoying the charm of the writing most of the time, but was "Mr. E" anything like he is here? Has any kid from any country ever found tame gross-out humor funny? I rolled my eyes at that shit in my elementary school days, seems like all kid's entertainment relies on it a lot more these days since they have to try much harder not to offend anyone with actual jokes.
Benjamin Flores
Befriending is easier, the Zero Watch lets you "poke" yo-kai to make them easier to befriending. It replaces the pin feature when you switch to zero watch. It's even easier in YW3 because you get to use a befriending gun and have items that help befriend every yo-kai

I see, I don't think I'd gotten that far since I was trying to get every E-rank before upgrading the watch. Sounds good.
James Hill
Who does this?
Zachary Turner
I ain't saying I care, it's just that the review is funny and another thing to add to the pile of bad ign reviews. The nigga didn't even know inspiriting was a mechnaic in yo-kai watch 1

I am playing the game righ now. The recruitment mechanic sucks.
Christian Adams
Yeah, it sucks. Every monster game has RNG catching mechanics and they all suck. At least the Crank-a-Kai has a chance to give you good or at least good looking yo-kai.
Luis Lopez
Anyone know what the BS and FS icons stand for while targeting? I couldn't find any info on it in the manual.
Josiah Bell
Bony Spirits and Fleshy Souls. It's the yo-kai's allegiance which affects some items that specifically target Bony or Fleshy clan yo-kai.
Samuel Hernandez
Thanks, I haven't gotten very far yet so I don't think I've come across those items.

Who was the faggot behind the recruitment rates? Was this solved for the second game.
Kevin Morris
The designs are ass compared to Pokemon and Digimon.
Mason Morales
Neither pokemon or digimon has space rabbit so your argument is invalid
It got better, but it's still pretty bad.

So, is there a way to transfer the yokai's from the first game to the second one or do I have to befriend them again?
Joshua Jones
There is no way to transfer, but you can get bonuses for owning the original, like Buchinyan, Noko, or Komasan.

user, I am lamenting that I can't get Pandanoko unless I cheat. Which I have no intentions of doing, my autism won't let me.
Thomas Parker
They look like generic LEVEL 5 shit.
Justin Green
Level 5 has a generic look now?
Daniel Torres
There are some pretty decent waifu "monsters", but otherwise I tend to agree. Most of what you come across is garbage, even if you understand what it's meant to represent.
I can't get that slut Sailornyan even when I do cheat apparently, save editing in the key items still doesn't work. I wish I had friends.
Jonathan Wilson
Why is the a thing?
Asher Gonzalez
because in japan you can't walk 2 feet in any direction without coming across another person. If you lived in jew york I bet you'd get streetpasses

if i want to get into the series do i need to play all the games or can i jump into 2 do i need to watch the anime?
Xavier Gomez
You can jump into two, two basically retcons 1 and the final boss of 1 isn't even mentioned. For the anime, if you're playing the american version, no. It is localized directly for kids, not for everyone like the japanese version. If you're playing the japanese version, you should. The subbed anime is a great help for understanding what the series and the yo-kai are about, and it's humor isn't butchered.

You'd get laughed at by anyone in Japan if you tried to tell them it's not a kids show.
Super Sentai shows are also for kids even though there's asses and blood in them.

there's a difference between kids show and show for kids user
Zachary Anderson
Yes, but Yo-Kai Watch is both.
Jaxson Lewis
Man, those nips are insane. They are mocking concern parents. Can you imagine a western show doing that?
