>>24642619The map system could be better but there are flags on the map that show you were quests are.
Recruitment rates can be super good or super bad and it's like SMT lite trying to get them, though if you have certain yokai or feed them their favorite foods you can get them easier.
The yokai are fine but I'll admit some of the localization names are fucking stupid. Some are just romaji but it's not too big of a deal. You'll find a design you like out of the damn near 400.
Pokemon doesn't have a monopoly on speedy bugs.
There are 8 types of yokai and the image i linked explains them. I don't know what you mean by the same one could be depressed and the other a healer because that doesn't sound right.
It's still party a comedy series and having to retrieve his lucky undies from a giant hotsprings pig while old men are dancing in the background of the fight is comedic. Pokemon doesn't have a monopoly on pig monsters either.
/ywg/ in /vg/ has been actively working to make guides for new players and we even have a pastebin with maps and yokai locations along with other things.
Really OP it's up to you. Don't go into YW thinking it's a "Pokemon Killer" because it's nothing like Pokemon and you'll have fun. But if you don't wanna chance a new IP for America stay with PMD. I'm getting both.
