I know this is pretty unpopular, but I've never been a big fan of TWEWY. The story is basically just a slightly better version of something like Ready Player One but with significantly less forced references to 1950s-1980s nerd culture. The characters range from mediocre to forgetabble to unlikeable, but there are a few standouts like Sho Minamimoto. Then there's the gameplay, which is very decisive to me. The game controls nicely and combat seems satisfying at first, but having to constantly alternate between Touch and Button controls (As well as in the DS version, both the top and bottom screen) can be super disorienting and uncomfortable, making battling needlessly more stressful and difficult at times.

The soundtrack is a banger, though. I will not deny that AT ALL.
