It's the end of the world as we know it. And I'm wearing heels.

I subscribed to Playstation Plus Extra. I know to those who like their games physical and collected forever, this is blasphemy. But I got a year's membership on sale and it pays for itself after, like, two games. And I've been trading in games that I finish with no intention of replaying for years. Games are expensive and anything that makes them cheaper is ok in my book.
Anyway. The first big game I've played with the membership is Neo The World Ends with You. And what a pleasant surprise! I played the first game way back in the day and this sequel is such a step up in every way. It's the most stylish looking game I've played since Persona 5. Battling is short and snappy and I kind of wish there was more of it. There's a lot of running about, chatting, eating, shopping. I feel like this game would be beatable in half the time. But the visual quality, music and likeable, mostly voiced cast mean you might not want to rush it anyway.
