It’s a confusing pace for Yo-Kai Watch 2 and may prove frustrating for those not using this title as an entry point to the growing series. First, it never really earns it’s status as a sequel, re-treading much of the first game for the first few hours, inexplicably taking its time to get to the civil war-like plot that eventually builds to nothing. There are plenty of problems with Yo-Kai Watch 2 as well. Dealing with the spirit realm certainly allows Yo-Kai Watch to address topics like death, anchoring it’s charm in something more serious and giving the game a level of complexity one wouldn’t expect from the hyper-colourful JRPG like aesthetic.
#YO KAI WATCH 3DS GAMES VERSION MANUAL#
They aren’t one dimensional NPCs used for frustratingly boring exposition or as some sort of tiresome in-game instruction manual (I really love Pokemon, but c’mon), they are potential side-missions – often fun but repetitive mini-games – to make the world feel bigger and more utilised, or sources of head-scratching “WTF” humour that is actually entertaining – often with a surprising amount of emotional depth, like the tragic Jibanyan, a “cat turned Yo-Kai” who, after getting killed by oncoming traffic, was cast aside by his owner and now spends his time as a spirit possessing people to fight off cars (that is until you ‘collect’ him). And that’s the first difference to Pokemon: the supporting cast, the people you talk to around the various maps, and especially the Yo-Kai you collect/recruit, are interesting. Yo-Kai watch has carved out its own lane and endearingly goofy universe of cute, creepy, and downright weird Japanese inspired spirits, so Fleshy Souls/Bony Spirits benefit further from tightening its focus on the characters that work so well. Don’t get me wrong, this isn’t a rip-off, and there are more differences than similarities, but the world of Yo-Kai is something Pokemon fans have been craving for a long time this world is big enough for both of them. But there are some drawbacks that Pokemon seem unwilling to address, and some of those drawbacks have obviously been studied and intentionally improved with Yo-Kai watch. Pokemon is a cultural phenomenon, and the brand has endured through decades by pivoting on the same winning formula, one that’s damn near faultless and highly addictive. Already the preconceptions are starting to form, right? Like the constant Pokemon RPGs, developers Level-5 Watch maintain that the only real differences between the two titles are some exclusive Yo-kai to collect in each one. This is a Demo ONLY.Instead of pushing back against the inevitable Pokemon comparisons that have been buzzing about ever since the first entry, Yo-kai Watch 2 seems to be welcoming the parallels, particularly by splitting up the sequel into two “same but slightly different” games: Fleshy Souls and Bony Spirits.
