PL vs. PW thread

(dual destinies refuses to run on this emulator for now so side game time)

ok that intro cutscene was wild and I was too busy being awed to cap anything but like. wow

also THEM

maya is just eternally 'I will cause mild inconvenience on purpose' and I love that for her

OH GOD THIS IS DIFFERENT this is jsut the prologue and my brains already spinnign reading these puzzle instructions

I'm already at 10/20 points so I'm going to stop being stubborn and unlock a hint ig

10pts baby................... only took two failed tries and two hints.....

even just hearing the aa text sfx just

hello anonymous fire emblem

I'm back to troubleshooting, at least like the title screen music a lot.... the beginning has suspiria vibes and then when the aa sounding music weaves in it's really neat

there's no way that espella isnt also a witch. or magical at least if witches are only 'evil' in this verse

uh oh more puzzles

ok that was a lot easier than the last one

'it couldn't have been a giant!" did you not see the fantasy creature that burst into the office and stole the woman asking for help and you're literally now searching for

all the spooky atmosphere weather is making me very nervous with nick and maya last seen on a plane,,,,

what is this. spirit haIIoween

I havent had to use hint coins since the first puzzle but am I still ignoring plot relevant elements until I've found the hint coins in that area? maybe

YES

wait who is prosecuting this anyways

I do not trust gradient eye coloring like this whats going on

oh its just a payne look a like

even in a crossover there's no escape

aw the interjection lines are already redubbed...

//pauses for five mins to listen to this new version of pursuit cornered

WAIT THE GIF OF MAYA SWINGING A PIPE IS OFFICIAL MATERIAL

for reference

she cooka da meatball

does the courtroom just have spare pipes laying around for easy visual aid

out of context moments

I still prefer the original sprites/aesthetic more but I really like the dynamic camera motion/etc that are possible with the 3D switch too

OH

why do I get the feeling that phoenix and maya are going to appear at completely the worst time possible and their first case in labryintha is going to be defending themselves again

so apparently I was Very off

maybe this is mean but I don't trust espeIIa........

couldnt investigate a ladder so 1/10

was waiting for like a brave interjection but no some random woman just got torched

I was hoping that the brunette woman was the prosecution for this game but I guess its this dude

shut up please shut up

I feel like I'm back playing danganronpa w this five person witness testimony

"what's up witch baby" maya just continues to radiate intense lesbian energy huh

I love the little sprites in the maps/on the save slots

she's the only one in the party of four to talk about this too sjafkjahl

I know darkIaw is supposed to be the villain or adjacent at least but. she's right literally all four of these people barely know her

this looks neater than any study guide I made in my academic career and it was to solve a video game puzzle

it'd take too long to screencap but I always have to look at the the cgi rat running directly through the barrel when the story goes back to the courthouse

yea I'm really not surprised,,

medieval selfie ig

small

why is the storyteller such a bitch

not a transmutation circle on the floor no no no

I'm calling it now the butler kid did it

already investigated everything else in the room but the circle,,,,,,,

ok I guess it was nothing so the suspense continues

>:3

I KNEW THAT CIRCLE MEANT BAD SHIT

now she's back to being tied for 'most often wrongly accused' with maggey

never thought a parrot testifying would be a repeat motif

pretty sure this is what is looped on the speakers in hell

ik this isnt an actual death but

forgot to add last night but

I keep spending so much time ignoring the plot for puzzles I'm already at like 16hrs and I think I'm only at a halfway point oops

this is just an example but I really like all of the different styles used in puzzle segments, they add a lot to the storybook atmosphere

is this just how witches looked in medieval art bc otherwise she has [that upside down madoka witch with a german name I'm not going to try and spell] vibes

anyways I love her

(fate) nero core

lmfao who took the time to rebraid her hair to match her eyes not being red anymore

maybe it's an evil twin/glimmer (illusion magic not the character) shenanigans

YES

I appreciate the game having the puzzle backlog librarian run after you every so often so you can catch up on them even if the library isn't accessible

oh god,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, math

nvm I did actual math for the first level but then I managed to get the rest in place by random lmao

no more written out accents PLEASE no more written out accents

again these animated cutscenes are so nice

just used my phone to film something so I wasn't stuck in an endless cycle of hard to read fight moves

I have so many thoughts but twitter is not a media essay platform aksjdfassadhf

basically a lot of my earlier problems/criticisms got solved by this finale but the solution kinda. creates different ones. idek I enjoyed this game for the most part still

literally right when I was about to send a tweet ending this thread

but now its actual scrolling/black screen credits so. thread over!
