Yo-Kai Watch

[Star Arcana]

How do you feel about Yo-Kai Watch?

Have you ever played any of the games?

If not, why so?
If so, did you enjoy your experience? Who is your favourite Yo-kai and why?​

​

If you're curious about the series, the wiki is a great place to start!

As usual, I'll save my comments for a later post (though the fact that I'm a fan should be obvious considering my current avie and sig, haha)

Yo-kai Watch was reaching pokemon levels of popularity in Japan, but as with most Level 5 titles, they've fallen quite fast.

I enjoyed the first game even if befriending Yo-kai is all dependent on RNG. (the capsule machine is even worse) I bought the second one as well, but it honestly didn't feel like it was much of an improvement over the original. (still put 90 hours into it though, lol) I haven't played Psychic Specters so I'm not sure how much was added, but it seems to have fared better than the Fleshy Souls/Bony Spirits.

As for favorite, maybe Damona? I know she's just a reskinned Blizzaria, but she's one of the first S Rank Yo-kai I was able to pull her from the Crank-a-kai, and she was in my party for the duration of the whole (first) game.

I still hope there's enough interest to get the third pair of games localized. Though I'm not sure how they'll explain the character moving from Japan to America, lol.

This is an adorable game! The first title was quirky and fun, and I found the gameplay challenging overall. Never was able to get majority of the yokai. Later games in the series were rated a lot lower than the first though.. I'm assuming it's because of how similar it was to the original going by the above comment?

Komasan is best btw <3 I drew him before!
