From last thread, Predictions for SMT Switch

Am I the only one who bought a Switch for the next SMT?

>>180978923
I haven't bought one yet, but I intend to get one around the holidays this year and SMT is one of the biggest reasons.

>>180978470
I want to high ten that cute girl.

>>180978923
That's a stupid fucking idea. You're like the people who bought the Gamecube for that Zelda demo, or a Wii U for BoTW.

>>180978923
>Am I the only one who bought a Switch for the next SMT?

i bet you bought a wii u for #fe

>>180979129
>You're like the people who bought the Gamecube for that Zelda demo
The GCN was a great system though.

>>180979442
Yes, but they never got that Zelda game they wanted, just Wind Waker.

Never buy a console until the games you actually want on it are already out; that way you get it for cheaper, there might be hardware revisions, and you know you'll actually get what you want.

>>180979129
>>180979212
I havent owned a nintendo console since Wii, try harder. Tried out BotW with basic Zelda expectations and ended up having a really nice time. I dont regret my Switch purchase.

Doesnt help that SMTxFE is the abomination that it turned out to be

>>180978484
EO get better at the 3DS though.

>>180978923
I'll get one when Xenoblade 2 comes out.

>Yes, but they never got that Zelda game they wanted, just Wind Waker.
Wait, I thought you were talking about Wind Waker? What are we talking about?

>>180979993
Yes. In my defense, my mind categorizes that as a Wii game.

Even then, though, that was released six years later after that Spaceworld demo.

>>180980079

2000 Zelda tech demo. People assumed that the next game would be like said tech demo. Wind Waker ended up being basically the polar opposite.

>>180980079
The Wii U and the 3DS are two console generations.
>>180980502
I totally forgot about this, huh.
On a positive note, Wind Waker ended up being pretty great.

After playing Devil Summoner I'm thinking of giving Soul Hackers a replay in Japanese. How much of a downgrade would the PS1 version be from the 3DS one?

>>180980728
>3ds
>console

hmmmmm

>>180980728
Personally, I think that Wind Waker would be better than whatever that demo would become if it was fleshed out into a full game.

I just like to think of it as a cautionary tale. funnily enough, they did a similar thing with a Zelda tech demo for the Wii U, although iirc it was made much clearer that that was a tech demo.

>>180980858
what did he mean by this?

I miss the old Titania designs.

>>180980957
I was too young to remember, did many people actually buy the console thinking the tech demo was a future game?

I'm personally waiting out on buying a Switch because of the hardware revisions like you've said earlier. I'm hoping they fix that apparently bending issue, and maybe give us a decent dock that doesn't scratch the damn system.
Also because I can just borrow a sibling's console for now.

>>180981435
seeing classic oberon and titania in p5 brought a genuine smile to my face

>>180978923
why would you buy a console for a game that's not coming out for another 2 years at least

Can someone give me a disappointed Decarabia?

>>180981597
They were always together in Mementos and they were a boss fight in Shido's ship. That was cute.

hey we didn't get Johnathan posting last time
so, we do it again

>>180981572
People thought it was a teaser for things to come. Hell, people probably went out to buy a Switch based entirely on the Prime 4 promo image. Despite knowing literally nothing about the game.

>>180981952
>people probably went out to buy a Switch based entirely on the Prime 4 promo image
While the mentality is a bit dangerous (see: SMTxFE), I don't necessarily see that as a bad thing as long as they wanted other games like Odyssey. Like a breaking point.

Not to mention that people were begging for this shit for like a decade. I'd be really tempted to buy a Switch for a new Phantasy Star, personally.

Heroes of Law and Chaos.

I found this translation of Doi's comments on Amon. How popular is Akira in Japan?

http://dijeh.tumblr.com/tagged/deep-strange-journey

Should demons that appear in Shin Megami Tensei be drawn closer to their real world counterpart, or a stylistic interpretation of the god?

>>180991994
It should be a mix of the two done appropriately, with some exceptions for certain demons whose role in the plot makes them appear otherwise, like Dagda.

The thing is there are often many ways to interpret the same mythological figure, so one has to compromise certain elements.

>>180991994
The latter, because it allows creativity and originality. It's one of the things that the SMT franchise is known for.

Of course, not all demons are good interpretations. Incubus comes to mind, especially in comparison to Succubus. Not sure what the hell Kaneko was thinking on that one.

>>180991994
I don't get what real world counterpart is even supposed to imply here. They're all interpretations, even the ones in scripture and shit.

>>180993280
DICK SPIKES

>>180993713
The dick spike is the only good thing on that design

>>180993310
I think what he's saying is should more demons be like Ishtar, who looks straight out of her myth of origin, or something like Krishna, who looks nothing like the blue skinned half naked flute player Krishna usually is but is more a stylish interpretation.

>>180993310
Real World Counterpart was supposed to imply that demon being drawn closer to how they are depicted in the myths or ancient artwork.

Only played IV, why does no one like Mastema? He seems like a chill guy.

>>181000379
He's manipulative and near solely responsible for painting Law as a bunch of sneaky assholes.

if Filipinos are the strongest, why are they Lawfags?

>>181000379
In SJ he's the demon law rep, and like most law reps what he does and intend to is a bit over the line

>>181000883
>>181005586
Jesus. Why is law more edgy than chaos? Doesn't it kind of defeat the purpose? When law in IV got to the point of "Smite those who read manga" I couldn't tell if it was some kind of satire or jab at Christianity. I know the old testament isn't all sun & roses but damn. You'd think angels would pretend to be something other than Evil Megazord.

>>181007336
something something genocide is good if it kills people we deem as bad

>>181007336
Law is all about two things: peace and equality, and maximizing peace as much as possible. You'd think this would translate to the angels being very polite or well meaning but it ends up with them not believing humanity is capable of creating its own peace and more often than not slaughtering them so they can lessen the amount of humans who would refuse to listen to them.

Like in IV, Merkabah justifies his actions by claiming any outside influence, namely manga, will hurt Mikado's peace. And the thing is we're just supposed to believe him, because even though he does what he set forth to do (create eternal peace) we don't know if genociding Tokyo was the only way. That's the grand hypocrisy of Law. In extreme cases, like Mastema, they believe their way is the best at maintaining peace and all people should give up personal freedom and free will to be cogs in a well oiled machine.

>>181008243
Is that poster /u/bunker_man? What a fucking faggot. He honestly sounds like he dropped out of his community college's philosophy course.

That he also genuinely believes in a Law society and justifiable genocide also shows he missed the whole fucking point of the franchise, does he not get that extremism is bad?

>americans nuke two cities and made several uncesary air rides through Japan for the sake of peace
>/smtg/ acts like black holing a city it's mind blowing extreme and unreasonable
just pointing out the cognitive dissonance and downright hypocrisy of neutral posting especially from americans

>>181014410
There's a large difference between attacks on a nation that declared war on you and destroying an entire nation just because you deem them as bad guys.

>>181016995
Now Tokyo's a significantly larger area, but I'd argue it's more justified than the bombings in question considering the destruction of Tokyo actually gets rid of all of the demons.

>>181008843
At least in IV and Final Mastema seems to have chilled or at least disagrees with Merkabah.

>>181020061
In IV he likes Akira to build a Mikado for humans and try to unify Tokyo by helping Tayama. He seems to lean more towards Neutral-Law

Same here, only played IV.
But even just from having played IV, the fact that he knows how the Red Pills are made, and going so far as to create a barrier around the elevator that leads to the red pill manufacturing plant, means he's totally okay with a lot of things that I don't think he should be okay with.

>>181082741
Yes

>>181082741
Yes, just be wary that the beginning of the game until after Medusa can be brutal, especially if you aren't going with a magic build. Know what stats to level, as well.

>>181082741
Yeah. The hardest start in the franchise though, but once you get past the starting are it gets easier

>>181082784
>>181082945
>>181082981
Thanks. Also, what is the difference between IV and IV:A?

>>181083157
IVA is a different game with a different plot/story and new characters that builds off the same world as IV. However, characters from IV also appear in IVA.

>>181083157
4A is a sequel of sorts to 4, taking place in an alternate timeline that branches off from close to the end of 4.

>>181083298
Thank you.

>>181083157
IV has an alignment system, and IV:A is a what if scenario that branches off of the end of one of those routes. There's also a bit of small improvements to make the game easier.

Personafag detected.

I just finished playing Raidou Kuzunoha vs The Soulless Army, and I find it kind of funny that you people hate SMTIVA for being too cheerful and having the power of friendship triumph over adversity, when the Raidou Kuzunoha games are basically entirely about that and you love them.

>>181083928
cool

>>181083928
Because fucking nobody has played the Raidou games.

Why does this general hate on Persona so much?

>>181083453
>There's also a bit of small improvements to make the game easier.
You're right, but also >>181074002, >>181074213

>>181083407
Don't forget to dump all of your stat points into MAG, and maybe Agility.
And if you run into somebody with Makarakarn, always run away like a little bitch.

>>181083928
IVA isn't even really cheerful until the very end, though, and it doesn't have to be if you pick massacre. Raidou basically forces you to use power of friendship. So does DeSu OC at the end of the law and chaos routes, which this general also loves.

It literally is just Nocturnebabbies who pretend to be hardcore fans of the series but just hate everything that's remotely persona related and parrot others' opinions.

>>181084901
Persona is inferior. Also, it's too normie.

>>181084901

>>181085957
>success breeds jealousy
Or maybe we just don't like the games?

>it's not mainline so I don't care about tone
Ridiculous. Why is something being mainline or not a guideline for how the tone or quality should be? You should expect a basic standard regardless of the game and its position in the series.

>>181086398
a mainline Shin Megami Tensei game is expected to fall in line to some extent tonally with the rest of the series, a spinoff can do whatever it wants

tone and quality aren't directly related or anything

>>181086398
I was jesting anyway.
Raidou isn't trying to be the same shit mainline is with post apocalyptic hell holes or alignment wars, so like how persona did or devil summoner in general did, it can diverge from the tone that the MT/SMT games have.
not even mad about bonds outside of Danu and Dagda, besides Anarchy itself isn't issue free

>>181086820
SMTIVA is the P:DAN of mainline

god damn can we stop taking the bait of this picture>>181086820

>>181089961
The aesthetics and UI design of P5 are hard to ignore. It definitely looks a lot better than any of the SMT games do. Even if the SMT series is better.

>>181089961
Stay mad smtcuck

>>181086820
It technically is a spinoff though.

>>181090091
>>181090170
My point is that nobody calls SMT a "flagship series", it's a strawman. And saying that SMT is a spinoff is counter to the definition of the word "spinoff", it doesn't retroactively change that Persona was a spinoff just because it's now more popular and has a bigger budget.

>>181090091
Well Persona has had models and animations since P1, while Nocturne is the only one that has those. It's more about the hardware really

That and I kinda prefer IV's UI. It's simpler and IV:A's light blue color is nice

lol Personababies REEEEEEEEE

I just tried to play IV again and my god this game feels clunky and slow as fuck after playing Final. Good thing they learned how to get the most out of the system right before it dies.

>>181095567
I wasn't a fan of IV, not sure if it's because I simply didn't care for it or the fact that I played IVA first and knew how unpolished it was.

>>180989897

>I played IVA first
That probably had something to do with it. I played IV first and could definitely tell it was kind of clunky and archaic at points. But the differences felt way more exaggerating after starting Apocalypse and it makes IV look pretty barebones in comparison.

>>181108110
>archaic
iirc the basic fusion feature was missing, but what else?
There were a lot of things that bothered me with IV, but it was mainly bad design decisions than clunkiness. Although I can't remember IV too much since it's been a while since I've played it.

That stupid hidden fence hole in Shibuya, and the Florida Cafe comes to mind. The only reason I was able to find the dumb cafe was because I was weeb enough to know katakana and that Shinjuku is known for sex clubs, drugs, and bars. Also shady Nigerian people.

>>181109812
The quest system was totally bonkers. As soon as you reach Tokyo after Naraku (and after the alignment lock) you have to trigger challenge quests to proceed. Which only appear in certain locations. And only appear after talking to a specific NPC. A lot of direction early on is just like that. A lot of quests give you a direction like "North of Shinjuku" but for some reason there's a fucking freeway you can't cross or other shit, so you have to travel in a loop to find whatever the hell you were supposed to go to in the first place. The map icons add a LOT to fixing that in Apocalypse. As well as the map not having roads that are inexplicably impassible.

The other archaic thing was the copy paste demons. Demons have I thnk 1 of 5 stat spreads, so all of the demons in each stat spraed are identical save for weaknesses since there are no unique skills. So fusing just becomes a chore to get new skills or get a demon with the correct resistances and otherwise is totally pointless.

>>181111556
demons are just functions

I feel less dumb now, because I remember getting completely stuck on one part (I think it was in Blasted Tokyo) all because I didn't talk to some dumbfuck NPC that I overlooked to trigger the next Quest.

I think IV is just a game that didn't go through proper play-testing. There's tons of obvious issues with it that a player would easily point out, and the fact that they fixed everything in IVA shows that they didn't get feedback before they finished developing IV.

>>181086820
>guaranteed replies ever time it's posted
Might as well do it, works on both /v/ and here.

So in SMT4:A, is Magic the stat you want to focus on for your offensive stat or is it something else?

>>181116063
Either MA or ST.
The former covers weaknesses, the latter brute forces and gets crits with Hell Thrust/Akasha Arts.

>>181116151
Well my MC has 100 magic and 33 strength at level 41, so should I just stick with magic then?

>>181116231
Probably, yeah.
The true best builds for extreme postgame (as in level 999 fiends) are mixed, though.

What the fuck are the lyrics to Fierce Battle in Nocturne? It's basically static.

So I just fought Shesa in SMT4:A and I have to say, WTF kind of music was that? It's so barebones in contrast to when you're fighting past other bosses like Sukuno-Hikona or King Frost.
