Okay, listen, in my Infinity Nikki review I said that styling battles—where you take the clothes you've accumulated and use their attached scores and tags to duke it out with an NPC—sort of took a backseat in this game, especially compared to previous non-adventure entries in the series.
That's still mostly true, until I realised that I wanted to craft the Wishful Aurosa outfit. Turns out, I gotta do a lot of stylist battles across various in-game factions in order to obtain every piece. After initially brushing them off as a tedious grind, I've come to absolutely adore them. They're campy, creative, and secretly one of the coolest parts of the entire game.
