Beautiful review, thank you. I think I will give it a try anyway, and after your review I will keep expectations low and try to enjoy it for what it is.

I bought this primarily because of the music! Gals Panic nostalgia and also the nice 2D art sealed the deal. Only played the first few stages though... I should get back to it. Not all games need to be top shelf stuff to be enjoyable... RIP Vita 😢.

I can still vividly remember the OST when thinking back of the game haha! Hope you enjoy it when you return to it, if the story progression ends up feeling stale just know that it kicks into high-gear around stage 18-20 if I recall correctly

I agree with the review, although I didn't find the singular "levels" a problem when the story is forgotten because I feel that's the whole idea: you managed to help someone out of their regret, it's time to move on and that's about it. I didn't feel it was a bad choice but that's just me, but I really enjoyed my time with the game. Although I really don't care about Poisonette. I think she's too loud and obnoxious for my tastes, but different strokes for different folks!

@@Swrinny The part where you had to collect 100 000 coins to get the yomi sake bottle (and it took me 3 hours to finally get it) and the final boss which had 6 enemies at the same time to kill (no joke).

I just finished this game about 20 minutes ago. I can totally see why some people might not like this game. The controls can feel a bit janky, it can be kinda buggy and glitchy at times, but...for me personally, it just had this undeniable charm that kept me playing. The aesthetic, the amazing soundtrack, the writing (this game made me laugh a lot, the dialogue was surprisingly funny). It’s definitely not perfect, but Poison Control has a lot of heart, and I really did enjoy my time with it.

I just beat it yesterday. it was alright, nothing too glaringly wrong other than some technical issues on Switch (fps slowdowns and draw distance problems - sometimes every onscreen entity disappeared on me) and a slightly janky aim assist system. the story was okay, but the individual belles and the concept was stronger than the execution. only spent like £5 on it in a sale so I got my money's worth, and the soundtrack was a high point of the game. the concept actually reminds me a lot of that anime Wonder Egg Priority, which I mostly enjoyed, but similarly to that anime, it fumbles the bag a bit.

I got the game on Switch not long ago on offer for €5, abd at that price, I love!! It's quirky, has very simole to learn controls, and the mini stories in the game are good. It does have flaws, and if I had paid full price, I would have probably been disappointed. So, the fact it was in offer made it a very fun game for me to play, and the shortcommings forgivable, and I'm glad I got it!!

Before this video, I thought this game was another persona inspired game. The layout and themes, in my opinion, are very similar. One thing that I don't necessarily enjoy is the lack of world building, though I understand having no roof was a good choice; I just wish there was more to look at instead of some flat floors with a couple of walls/objects. However, the game seems pretty alright overall.

Nippon Ichi Software's makes some fun games but the price they ask is a little to high for what they deliver in the end. And no, I'm not complaining about the time it takes to beat their games but the games as a whole xD Still, I'm quite interested in this one, looks fun. A shame about the gameplay problems though... Btw, do you know what do we need to do to get each ending? I'm planning to go through the game just once, and if possible, I would love to get the best one xD

Niche titles like this are expected to be a bit overpriced and normally I don't really mind that. And I agree that time is not everything when it comes to valuing an experience. Like, if there's a game that's only 5 hours but it's the best experience ever that I'll remember for a long time - I don't mind paying more for that! I really love the writing and the overarching plot so if you focus on that you'll be good :D At least you know what to expect from the gameplay haha. As for the ending, I actually recommend you get two of them as you can do these in a very short time and are both very good imo! Once you unlock the shop you can buy the 'Yomi Sake Bottle' item which costs 100K. This might seem much at first, but it's not too bad as you go through the stages. Just make sure to buy it before mission 23. During mission 25 & 26 you have a story option to use that item on 2 characters -> choose to use it. Then after the final boss fight also in 26 you have the option to use the item on Poisonette -> choose to not use it. This gives you what I think is the true ending (it's also my favorite!). Then after the credits, replay mission 26 and choose to use the item on Poisonette this time. This unlocks a secret 27th stage after which you get another fun ending. Only takes about an hour more to do this and imo it's worth it. Hope this helps and that you enjoy the game when you pick it up!

Great video! I heard in one review that the Nurse story was treated poorly but no one else beyond that seems to mention it at all. Did the main characters and radio characters really all insult her at the end? And would you mind just sharing your impressions on the story in that level? Thanks for your time.
@Swrinny
@Swrinny 3 года назад
Thanks! I don't think the Nurse story was treated poorly actually. I'm not sure how much you've read about it or want to be spoiled, but without the contextual specifics; the gist of it is that while she's appear as a perfect person on the outside, she also has a habit of telling horrendous lies. I guess you can compare it to having a coworker that has a really bad personality and has a bad impact on colleagues, but is really good at his/her job. During the mission the main characters were lied to multiple times, which annoyed them, but I don't think they were really insulting the Nurse's problems, just trying to figure out why she'd be doing that to them while they are trying to help her. After the mission one of the hosts carefully explains the Nurse's delusion on what is causing is and the other host ended up calling her a "pathetic dumbass". So one of the hosts feels a lot of pity for her situation, while the other one think she's pathetic for hurting others really bad through lies for selfish reasons. Honestly, I think the writing for this was good, because even in the conclusion there's something to be said for both the hosts' opinions. Hope this makes a bit of sense!

I rage-quitted for few hours after encountering a bug in my first encounter with the mermaid kleshas. One of the targets got stuck mid-death animation and no weapon I used could affect her, rendering the stage unwinnable. After replaying the stage, the bug didn't wasn't triggered, but I still found slowdown in the hell of the myriad belles and really annoying hitboxes for the klesha's shields. If I didn't encounter so many glitches, I could have recommended this game (though it gets REALLY lazy when it comes to recycling bosses)
@Swrinny
@Swrinny 3 года назад
Sorry to hear that, sounds really bad though! Thankfully I didn't run into many glitches, at least not gamebreaking ones. 2 of the ones I remember is that a Klesha started floating after 'breaking' it, but I was still able to damage it. And the second one is where some Klesha's disappeared out of nowhere lol. As you said - that boss fight on the stages to move to the next circle of hell was disappointing too and the only solid was I was able to deal with the shield Klesha's was by using the explosive items as that damage goes through the shields. If you think of returning to it at some point, the story starts to pick up around stage 20 if I recall correctly. It doesn't save the gameplay, but it was one of the redeeming factors for me personally.

@@Swrinny Thanks for the tip! I'm actually on stage 27, what I meant to say is that after getting angry over the mermaids, I took a break and then continued. And having reached that point, I can say that the rival battles are virtually identical from each other, too. After getting a game over on the three shield kleshas of stage 27, I looked up online if the secret boss is worth a replay. It's just a repeat of the final boss!
