The Demon's aren't your 'bro', they hate you and you only use them as tools.

I'm an Ausfag so I haven't played Shin Megami Tensei IV yet.
>>256025469
Nah, if they hated you they'd just keep axing your ass. Like half of them are surprised you bother to talk at all.

>>256026116
Basically, you get lucky and they're almost instantly excited to join you without you having to throw tons of macca, items, or sweet nothings at them. Of course, this still requires you to initiate negotiations with them in the first place.
I want to say there are also situations where demons will up and initiate a conversation with you on their own, sometimes ending in them joining you, but I don't have any specific enough examples or memories of it to say it definitely happens.
>>256026147
>I'm playing through Shin Megami Tensei II right now, so I'll get back to you

Oh
Recruiting during Full Kagutsuchi is also a good thing
Makami.
Pic is really old from my last playthrough, I used him until I had to do the kalpas. Saved my ass in pixie land because the mini/boss there absorbed phys. ty based dog with your wind cutter.
Would you trust Matador making your ramen?
>>256026608
Have you run into situations where you successfully recruit a demon, but don't have any room left in your COMP/Party? I know in SMT IV if that happens, then the next time you talk to a demon of the same type they will recognize you and join you no questions asked, assuming you actually freed up a slot for it. If you don't have a slot the second time, then they'll go away and you basically blew it, meaning you'll have to recruit them normally next time.
>>256026698
Oh god yes. That just got me hyped for playing SMT II. Good thing the Aeon Genesis patch for that isn't all bugged up like the one for SMT I, which I still need to finish.
>>256026839
You must be the most charismatic person on the planet, holy shit.

What bothers you about it?
>>256027134
Well he started as an inugami. Originally just wanted fog breath, got a bro4lyfe.
Later made him into a wukong that helped me beat lucy.

>>256028026
Dude I would take this faggot as a fiend.
Are you guys excited for persona 5
Playing SMTIV right now. First SMT game. Just beat the medusa and about to go down into the city. Going for a pure magic user. Any spells I should really focus on? Have all the single target elemental ones and the dark instant death spell.
>>256028150
>excited for a 2015/16 title
No, why would I be?
>>256028026
Whoa, what is that from?I fucking loved Zeno Clash man.
>>256026245
Hua Po a cutest
>>256028159
Not really. You'll want to get a spell of each element early on and to max it out.
You'll want Megido when given the chance.
>Random encounter

I imagine the design process was something like
>ok, I need to draw a body
>look at all that boring empty space, I bet I can spice it up with some ropy veins and cool mouths and shit
>hmm, still too empty. Maybe a couple more arms...
Then two hours later they grapple a drawing of half a torso away from him and salvage it best they can
>>256028286
Yeah that's my plan. Only maxed wind one (sorry don't know the names) but the others are only a point or two away.

>>256027765
Aren't SMTIV's demons done by Sentai/KR kaijin designer?
>>256031501
Yeah, some. I don't know why they thought those redesigns were ok. Sure, design new demons, but then turning classic old designs into mounts of mouth and spike shit?
I hope he doesn't come back.Imagine a Jack Frost by him

>>256032060Yes.
>>256032060
They're a large component of any jRPG's fanbase.
ATLUS kind of brought it on themselves with the effeminate designs. That shit attracts fujoshis like flies to shit.
>>256031704
10-1 there's already a Jack Frost-esque kaijin or rubbersuit waiting for inspiration.
With that said the pic there resembles one of the bad guys in Boukenger

My megaten folder is the gayest folder on my HD, all boysexcept for hua po
>>256032060
They were a part of SMT IV's target audience if that's what you're asking. Probably because Nocturne was popular with them, and because Strange Journey didn't sell so well compared to P3&4.
>>256033568
>My megaten folder is the gayest folder on my HD, all boys
Do you feel like uploading that?
Best Mother. Best Partner. Best Friend.
>>256027765
His demons were crap but his designs for the angels actually really fit the mythology behind them.
>>256033675
too lazy, and it's not that big
I'll just dump some pics while discussing the games
What's you guys' favorite non-humanoid demon, design wise? Mine's Mothman, he's cute.
>>256033450
> :3
Damn, you are such a huge fucking faggot.
>>256033969
Please ;_;
>>256033851
they're still too much. While I don't mind the concept the whole everything sticking out of that shit is awful.
Then again, I'm not a particular fan of Kaneko's 4 archangels either, I think he should redesign them himself. Have they even been given modern kaneko art?
>>256033851
But the designs look so busy. So much stuff going on.
>>256034037
Stop being a faggot and go search for that shit on pixiv, it's not hard.
>>256025395
Mothman a qt
>>256034127
Man, I've gone through a bunch of Megaten related pixiv tags about 3 times.
>>256034082
Seriously look at all this shit.
I'm all for the angel faces in awkward places because that's cool but look at all this other shit you don't need all this
>>256034331
Yeah, I really love more biblical-styled angels, but, the archangels looked so fucking busy. There's a difference between otherworldly looking angels and just sticking shit wherever you can stick it.
>>256034107
>>256034082
>>256034331
Eh, I always took it as the archangels trying to force themselves to look more human and failing miserably at it. Like they don't really understand what it is to be human, you dig? Given the lawfag sentiments, it's a fitting choice. Plus, it gives Lilith a lot more depth to have her be the most human looking of all of them.
>>256032060
All the characters wear eye liner bro
of course
>>256034331
Bayonetta had some cool looking designs for angels. They look horrific, but weren't as hard to look at as the ones from SMTIV
>>256034331
SMT4's demon/angel art disgusts me on so many levels
It doesn't even look like Megaten. It's not even weird but appealing like Kaneko's stuff, it's just ugly and gross. Just look at fucking Medusa.
>>256033973
i know i love sucking dick :3
want me to suck yours too? ;3
>>256034707
Bayonetta's angel design was fucking ace. Like some shit straight out of the Bible, grand heavenly hosts with a hundred heads and shit. Looking forward to the new designs in 2.
Guys, I've only played Strange Journey and loved it. What game should I move on to next?Which Jack is the best, ho?
>tfw no demon gf
>>256034708
Lucifer and Medusa were the worst offenders. I wonder where they got the idea that having a bunch of different people with different artstyles designing pig-disgusting demons was a good thing.
>>256034915
Soul Hackers
>>256034082
Isn't this them?
>>256034708
I'm less bothered by Medusa and more Lilith.
How do you go from this >>255990583
to this
Honestly I'm mostly bothered by the spider motif WHY
Her motif was always snakes because garden of eden
>>256034918
>>256035023
At least Lucifer's second form was hilarious
>>256035059
I miss the radical 90s-gamer looking designs from the early megatens

>>256035267

Because you're looking at shitty western scalping stores that sell overpriced bootlegs.
>>256035076
She feels more like a being cast out by YHVH in this iteration though. I think the main design aesthetic they were going for was how they looked before integrating with humanity and the SMT II and III designs were after.
>>256035267

Wait. That's not Kaneko.
>>256037612
no but imagine
>>256037695
Are you telling me Kaneko had nothing to do with SMT IV?
What is even the point then? His artstyle gave SMT a sense of individuality and it's own style that set it apart from other JRPG's!
One of the(many)reasons I didn't like P3 and didn't even get 5 hours into P4 is because his touch was absent in character designs, everything just looks so bland and generic now.
Fuck.
>>256037931
You're a chill guy
>>256037931
basically no
the artist they got on board did kamen rider shit so that's why they look like kamen rider monsters
This is about the only acceptable design from him
>>256038236
That looks like Hibiki fused with Hierophant Green.
>>256038168
Is that sarcasm? Sorry, I was just stating my opinion on it.Give me back my Philemon, ATLUS.
>>256038236
That design's pretty damn cool, I must admit, but all the other new ones I've seen here have been complete shite.
>>256038539
No, I meant it. I have a friend that often makes fun of SMTface, but that just means that's sort of the trademark. I don't know, I just think it's cool to like Kaneko
>>256038735
Well thanks then, Anon, you're chill too.
Have more Kaneko. I wonder if he's doing anything lately, I swear I would give so much money if he did a kickstarter thing.
>>256038735
Kaneko's the best.
>>256039032
He's like the cofounder of atlus so yeah

It's out late 2014 in japan, early 2015 in the USA.

Never played one but it's a dungeon crawler right? It's close, it also has good dungeons design but it's more focused in killing dragons.

Then I think you'll like this one.
>>256025395
talking about demons which one should i get, soul hacker or devil survivor?
>>256029146
Fucking love Hell biker, my favourite demon. It feels like the intro theme for the fiends was designed for him, since that and his bike sounds make it amazingly awesome. His animations are really cool too. I'll be fusing him in Nocturne soon, is there any skills I should attempt to give him, in the vein of creating the perfect daisoujou?
>>256052000
If you don't know runes your only choice is snes version which has fantranslation.
>>256032060
2ch's pet nickname for SMTIV was Shin Fujoshi Tensei for a reason, anon.
>>256039890
Megami Tensei 1 was made by Konami and then some of the people who worked on it founded Atlus.
>>256040072
I like to think of Kaneko and Kirkbride as kindred spirits, even though I'm probably wrong on that. I'd love to see them design a universe together nonetheless.
>>256039841
He likes Obariyon and Cybele, too.
The guy has good taste.

Are you really surprised?
Didn't Soul Hackers got some shitty sequel for cellphones?
>>256055968
It was namcot/namco
>>256062757
Less relevant than NINE and Ronde. And the millions of shitty P3 cell phone games.
Atlus had nothing to do with it, and it was obviously made to cash in on SH's popularity. It's also non-canon.

>>256065409
How do you think he came to be Atlus's mascot?
Okada thinks he's the most adorable thing ever.
>>256065562
Jack Frost fucking is adorable.
Is it true he's being replaced with that faggot Teddie though?
Not that guy but I love Jack Frost because he always has his own unique dialogue while other demons tend to repeat things.
I love how he goes from cute to suddenly rambunctious and violent
>>256065653
Well, Atlus USA's Christmas cards did have Teddie on them instead of Jack Frost.

>>256066192
He's not dead, I was just joking.
Being relegated to churning out shitty iOS games is a fate worse than death, though.
Atlus no longer uses Jack Frost on their twitter either. What the hee holy fuck is this shit?

Pixie is definitely a bro in Nocturne. Kikuri-hime was one of my favorites in that one too.

Does anyone know if Nocturne is the same?

>>256067487
>What should we use for our Chrismas card? Same dude we've used for a decade or take the chance and put this guy in from this one game that has printed so much money it's literally saving the Vita? hmmm
I understand how people might think it's stupid, but also understand that the people who think it's stupid are stupid themselves. I personally think the people who think Teddie is going to replace Jack Frost forever are retards, but whatever.
>>256025469
Just like Pokemon.
>>256068575
>people who think things are stupid are stupid

>>256068575
to be fair, Jack Frost is in Persona 4 too.
>>256069541
It's stupid that they don't realize it was a smart marketing move.
>>256069696
No one's going to buy P4 just because a character from the game appeared on a shitty e-card that was only sent out to Americans who had already subscribed to Atlus USA.
>>256069679
Well yeah but Teddie uses bufu magic so he's christmas! See where I'm getting at? We all know Jack Frost is the mascot of the franchise, they used a popular character from a popular game of 2012 for that card, it's chill, nothing's gonna chage. Give it a rest, I don't know why people in the Megaten franchise on /v/ are so obsessed with it.

>>256066084
Atlus USA just makes a lot of questionable decisions in general.
Like changing Madame Ginko's gender, or changing SH from a game that took place in 1999 to a game that took place in 2030, like we're somehow supposed to believe that MMOs and a city where everyone had internet access are supposed to be a big deal in 2030.
I'm thinking of buying either SH or SJ but can't decide. It would be my first first-person dungeon crawler. Which one should I get?
>>256071829
Strange Journey
>>256071829
SJ is the best mainline game imo, but it's also pretty hard. SH is just kind of an alright addition to the Megaten franchise. It's up to you man.

Japan's criticism of IV makes /v/'s look really tame in comparison.
I'm still disappointed that no one ended up drawing Flynn with a cockroach or sperm on his head. I thought it'd be a given, with all the complaints about his hairstyle.

I agree with this mostly, although I don't really care for kaneko's designs either.
>voice acting
I didn't play it in japanese so I wouldn't know
>character design
This is an opinion but a bad one, I think the samurai armor looks awesome, makes you look like a jedi (which you kind of are) as for flynn's hair isn't it supposed to be reminiscent of a samurai top-knot?.
>actual dungeons
There were actual dungeons, just because they weren't rooms upon rooms of squares at 90 degree angles doesn't mean they're not dungeons.
Sounds to me like japan rears it's shit taste once again, reminder that lightning is the most popular ff character there.

Okay.
Also, the dungeons in IV were pretty simplistic, especially compared to the what we got in SJ and Nocturne.

Never said that.
Brought this bro on NG+.
>>256076395
Demon redesigns weren't all awful but they stuck out way too much, they should have tried to keep close to the original style. Voice acting was fine, character design was fine except Flynn having paper hair, Walter being a skeleton from the neck down, and Johnathan having a weird face in some scenes. Dungeons though, domains were Tartarus levels of awful.
>>256076395
I actually thought the english VA was very well done. I'd agree with them on the dungeons and the lackluster, zoomed out overworld. I still think it's a fantastic game.
>>256079832
Thinking that IV's dungeons are anywhere near passable is a shitty opinion.
>>256080365
Note that this is the Japanese voicework they're complaining about, not what we got.
They were upset that Atlus just hired the same incredibly overused VAs that appear in everything ever, with no regard for whether said VAs actually fit the characters or not.
>>256080401
Purgatorium and Lucifer Palace were passable, problem is they were the only passable ones.
>>256080542
Sounds like japan should import the NA version this time.
>>256080637
Yeah. At least the music in SMT4 was comfy.

Hi!
My name's Hikaru, and I'm interested in you all.
>>256082212
Lucifer's characterization in IV sure was different.
>>256082331
The schoolgirl was Lucifer? I never found that out. She just stopped appearing after a while...
>>256083256
You only find out during the chaos route.
>game has been out 2 years
>still not getting all the endings
>>256083487
I just got it a month ago with my #ds, I've only done the Law route just now. I figured she would be part of the Neutral route or something. I actually thought she was the little girl grown up from the beginning of the game. I guess there's still a lot left to do for me.
>>256083487
Only one year.
That's still plenty of time though.
>>256083769
Chaos and White are super easy to do but Neutral is a total pain in the ass, just use a guide for it.
>>256084029
I imagine it takes a lot of micromanaging your alignment choices throughout the game. I heard the margin for neutral is very slim too.
>>256084029
>Use a guide to manage to take a path
This is nothing like my merge-control-destroy
>>256084321
Here's what I did.
>kept myself Neutral the whole time.
>checked with the guy at the bar after every story event with choices.
>skipped all the quests so they wouldn't affect affinity.
>chose Jonathan at the split.
>made all Chaos choices after that until the real route split.
>picked Law for the choice after beating Kenji.
I was honestly surprised I landed on Neutral the first time I tried for it.
>>256084029
Chaos is easy to fuck up if you like to spend a lot of time on sidequests.
I ended up trapped in Neutral, despite siding with Walter all game, just because I found too many relics.
>>256084837
Regular relics don't change your alignment, you were probably doing delivery quests.
>>256084837
>>256084959
That's what I meant. The ones that Hugo asks you to fetch for him.
>>256084837
I guess I better stop doing sidequests then, fuck. I had no idea they affected alignment.
>>256085218
For some reason, SMT loves assigning law points to weird things like that.

Not worth that price unless you have some special interest for the series.
>>256087070
Do you know what its gameplay is like? If not, look up some videos of it first.
Personally, I don't think it's worth $30, since I couldn't get over how repetitive and clunky the gameplay is.

>>256080637
To be honest, I think SMT4's dungeons are passable. SMT4 had a different approach than usual is all.
Compared to the other games where the overworld is just there to take you from Dungeon A to Dungeon B, the overworld felt more like an actual dungeon in SMT4. You had to search for ways to traverse it, explore the area for people and events that opened up new paths, just in general had to get around obstacles. The game was more about exploring Tokyo as a whole instead of exploring smaller dungeons.
That's probably why SMT4 didn't feel right in terms of dungeon design when you compare it to the other games. If the other games were more about going through and finding your way through smaller dungeons, SMT4 was more about casually finding out more about the world as you explore and find your way around the demon disaster known as Tokyo.
It really helps with the setting too. Tokyo is a world that went to shit and was overrun with demons. The more you explore, the more you realize the place has gone to hell. Broken down buildings, poison swamps covering places where tons of people would normally be traversing, having to band together in small underground bunkers(you even find a destroyed one overrun by demons), just general chaos to the point where people broke into factions. You find out more and more how the world has just gone to trash when you get further and further into Tokyo.
Something like that definitely wouldn't have been as easily conveyed if they went with the normal way of doing things.
The domains themselves were pretty bad since they were randomized though, yeah. They're tolerable though, I just wish they switched up the scenery in them.
>>256088557
>>256089482
I find the setting really interesting and I like SMT. Also keep in mind this would be a new copy.
>>256040946
Norse is Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei.
>>256093290
No, it's japanese. Sure, the villain is Loki, but the guy is Izanagi
Something that bothers me about Ose's SJ design is the balls at the tip of the sword. They look like something you wouldn't want on a sword as they make you unable to do stabbing attacks.
For whatever reason I can't bring myself to finish SMT1 or Soul Hackers. I just get so bored.
