They refered to the game as na HD Project, it's extremely easy to port to the PS4, the PS4 already has a huge JRPG audience, Persona 5 is the most successful game from Atlus and is on PS4.

It's obvious that it's not na exclusive.

Why announce this at the Switch unveiling then? I can understand being able to port it to other platforms now that it is using UE4 but Nintendo have had a monopoly on SMT for a while now. It's almost as absurd as saying Monster Hunter 5 will come to the PS4.

>>
>>375967350
Because It will also be released on the Switch, what is so strange about it? Fifa was presented at the Switch Conference and it's not an exclusive.

Nintendo don't have a monopoly over SMT and with PS4 selling like it is in the West, it's higly unlikely that Atlus will simply ignore that, even so after the sales of P5.

And Monster Hunter 5 will probably be multiplatform also if we go from what Capcom said in their investors meeting that portables are limiting Monster Hunter's sales in the West and that the PS4 will likely reach 100 million by 2020.
>>
>>375966402
I know this is consolewar blah blah blah, but honestly, they have very separate and often not overlapping fanbases.
Persona has a focus heavily inclined towards the personal relationships and connections people make with the NPCs and party members, and as a result, is holding a high rate of appeal.
SMT is much less personal (although SMTIVA has a higher degree than past games) and has a broader focus that relies on overarching moral and ideological decisions surrounding the entirety of the in game world as the prime themes, and as a result, has less of a widespread appeal for new or casual players.
>>
>>375967226
Half a million for Atlus is amazing for them, and it's only outdone by I believe P5 and P4. Half a million is super good and I'm pretty sure nothing mainline beats that.

>>375967418
P5 wasn't made on Unreal and development started on it back when they were owned by Index. Plus it hasn't even been a year since it's come out. P5 sold like candy though, and it came out as a multi-platform.

2 wrong assumptions with your post:

1) Persona5 no longer lacks SMT-like features, such as negotiating with demons for items/money/capture (say, like Devil Summoner), and vastly expands on Persona mechanics, with social links now giving a plethora of gameplay bonuses outside of simple EXP boosts on fusions and having actual designed dungeons. Pretending like P5 is a watered down SMT at this point is just being dishonest and clearly would only come from someone who hasn't played it.

2) You assume the SMT game announced at Switch's conference is a Switch exclusive when it obviously won't be. Atlus always tends to make the SMT line of games available for the best selling consoles and/or multiple systems. They would never put this much effort on a new fully realised big 3D SMT game for a system that will have 8 to 12 million units upon the game's release. Considering it'll re-use Persona5 assets (namely the demon models, why wouldn't they) it's more than likely a Switch/PS4 multiplat game. Either way with no confirmation whatsoever you can't assume it's an exclusive (same for Square's Octopath Traveler) if it was they would've bragged about it already. At BEST you can say it's a 50/50 whether or not it's exlusive, but if you know Atlus trends you can make a very safe assumption that it won't be. The only way it would be exclusive to nintendo is if it was a 3DS title because that system has enough units out there to make the exclusivity worth it.

Original anon you replied to here
You have to also consider the style of game and who they would be marketing to though.
It has a very distinctive anime-looking style, and as a result, the potential audience is limited to a group commonly attracted to SoL themed or personally focused stories with a somewhat smaller audience for traditional SMT due to many people who would like it turning it down due to the artstyle or initial imagery.

SMT basically has more difficult dungeons, and the fact that there's no pre-determined teammates mean that you have more freedom in building your team, allowing Atlus to throw crazier bosses at your face because you have no excuses to be under-prepared for them. Also no social sims, basically 90% dungeon crawling gameplay

As for the animosity, it's mostly because Persona's more popular making the franchise having a rep as waifuism JRPG games, which fans of other series (the MegaTen franchise has like 3 big series and several smaller ones) don't like. Back then there's even an article that call SMTIV the Dark Souls of Persona games

Sales-wise there's no need. The game released on a 80million unit system (PS3) and a 60 million unit system (PS4), and already surpassed sales of any other Persona game.

It may still be the case, though they would have to downscale it for the Vita, hopefuly not going as far as giving it the P3P treatment. It's not coming to the Switch if that's what you were getting at.

>>375971760
>>375971957
How is it all you can assume? All we know is that it's coming to the Switch. Obviously you can assume it may come to other systems too, there's nothing holding back that possibility. Multiplats get announced of MS/Nintendo/Sony conferences all the time, how new can you be?

It's completely meaningless where a game is announced unless they directly say without a shadow of a doubt that it'll be exclusive (even then some games are announced as exclusives when it's only a 6month contract and get released on other systems shortly after, MS did this to 90% of Xbone's library for instance - so even here there's no guarantee anymore)

No, it's still watered down SMT because it waters down the aspects that are most important to SMT's gameplay; team building. The entire gameplay flow of SMT is 'recruit a party from the ranks of your enemies, then fuse them away when they stop being useful'.

True, that is a really cool concept. I suppose I took that for granted because I was already familiar with the games before I read the book.

I didn't say Atlus doesn't release on nintendo system. I outright told you that if this game is Nintendo exclusive it'll be a 3DS+Switch deal. Switch alone won't cut it. But seeing that this SMT is an "HD project" I find it unlikely that that'll be the case. So the only other option is Switch+PS4. If you have any better ideas then go ahead. Xbone release? PC release? Vita/PS3 release? I find all of those more unlikely than a PS4 release.

If you're refering to P5 not coming to Switch it's simply because no persona game other than a spin-off EtrianOdyssey staff collab have been on Nintendo platforms. Certenally a P5 spin-off might, but not the main game.

>>375973904
Sony removes mention of every other platform on their trailers and posts too, it's meaningless. Companies also pay for marketing rights. MS did it for Battlefield1 commercials (at least initially) Sony did it for Destiny. This happens all the time. Yes, platform holders nowadays pay good money to simply have a game announced on their conference and even more so for marketing like the pic you posted. They do it exactly because people like you will assume it's exclusive and buy the console in advance, making it a good deal for the platform holder in the end. They didn't need to pay for development costs or even more expensive long-term exclusivity contracts, just a fraction of the price to alure enough people to the system.

>>375973913
You said it would ONLY come to the Switch because it was announced at a Nintendo conference. I'm saying that's not the only possible assumption in a situation like this.

It's alright but not as good as it could be. I own one and it makes for a great handheld but a mediocre console unless you're playing really basic shit like MK8D.

Which is fine, I knew what I was signing up for. Doesn't change the fact that I want games like SMT and MH on hardware that will do them justice. If these games are Switch exclusive I'm concerned that they will have to make sacrifices they wouldn't have to make on PS4.

>>375975076
It wouldn't work in post-2 Persona because the wild card is related to the social sim elements and how the protagonist of each game has a different "persona" when he talks to a Slink character. Plus 1 (non-snow quest) and 2 are really easy games because of the fact everyone has access to a different Persona so the system would need a major balance overhaul to work.

So you DID say that. Why deny it?

No, you assume it's a multiplat until further notice.
MG:Rising was announced at a MS conference, so was Titalfall, so was TombRaider's reboot. So was Destiny's gameplay reveal (on Sony's conference) and most of its initial marketing. Where you announce a game reveals nothing about its exclusivity.

>>375975645
How does that contradict what I said in any way, shape or form?
3DS sold 66m units, more than enough to warrant the development of a lower budget secondary IP from Atlus.
You even quoted me on that:

How is the 3DS not Nintendo's (current) best selling console?

>>375976004
>Do you really think Nintendo would pay marketing rights for this game of all things?
Yes. Considering that such rights are inexpensive precisely because the series isn't that popular. Are you assuming that this move is as expensive as paying for multi-million AAA western titles?

Nintendo wants the core audience back (outside of those who already buy Nintendo IPs like Mario) it's only natural they'd do this.

It's a trailer that only has their platform mentioned. Where it's from doesn't really factor in. Any trailer for a multiplat put out by Nintendo only mentions the Nintendo platforms, just like any trailer for a multiplat put out by Sony only mentions the Sony platforms.

Only trailers put out by the actual developers of the game mention all of the platforms.

Nintendo adds their mark to every trailer they host or put out, same with Sony and Microsoft.

maybe I'm the crazy one. I don't even assume the Crash Bandicoot remakes will be PS4 exclusive since they aren't developed by NaughtyDog and the IP belongs to Activision.

I do the same with this SMT game and Octopath Traveler. In my mind they are both multiplats
>>
>>375977138
>>375977272

Sonic mania trailer shows all platforms on Nintendo's channel while Sony only shows PS4 logo. Same with something like Snakepass. Shovel Knight only shows Switch because it launched on that system and then released a month later on everything else.

Because Square Enix is a shitty company that doesn't optimize their games. The fact that the framerate is all over the place in all three versions, and the fact that the PS4 can't even hit 60 is proof of that. We don't have many other multiplats to compare the Switch to, with Snake Pass and Lego City Undercover being the only other games we can really use. And they both run at a comparable level to other platforms.
>>
>>375968519
I don't give a fuck really. I kinda like achievements though but that doesn't have any influence on the quality of the game.

Also by the time it would be finished, the Switch will probably have a few games that aren't WiiU ports so I won't get a Switch just for one game.
But I'm still waiting for HD being called exclusive. SMT was always all over the place, multiplat isn't that unlikely.

The very least both Switch and PS4 will probably get a bunch of spinoffs

Maybe but so far Persona was always on Sony (except 1) and P5 was confirmed exclusive while HD is not. Exclusivity wasn't mentioned once. Maybe they're still negotiating. Who knows.

Ryuji never

The team kept being obessessed over their popularity instead of carefully picking their targets

They retardedly went in to a dunegon in open public which is why fags like Akechi could capture them with evidence.

They kept discussing blatant shit about who they're gonna target next on their phones with open messaging and on phone calls.

Their second hideout was literally in some obvious area and they kept talking about it which is dumb with people like ryuji was there

When Ryuji suggested giving up their identity when they become famous not one person ridiculed him and they all actually took in consideration.

It would be easier to tolerate (3)DS SMT Games if the spritework wasn't so terrible.

But P1 and 2 have fucking atrocious gameplay. Just because you can switch everyones personas doesn't make it deep. Pretty much 90% of the game you'll have that shit set to autobattle and in P2's case you'll just be banging out whatever preset fusion spells can nuke everything. Having an MC focus works perfectly well for the combat formula that later persona games use.

if you've been playing a lot of newer SMT games you'll be spoiled because SH's interface sucks
a lot of the mechanics are archaic and have been left behind in future games for a reason
but man the game has style

Nobody said you were supposed to know exactly what it was, but the Persona series had historically seen mainline releases on home consoles and already had multiple spinoffs released and announced. It was at the very least obvious that it wouldn't be a numbered sequel.

Holy fuck, how autistic are you? Just because P5 doesn't have the exact same mechanics doesn't make it watered down. P5 has one of the most robust turn based combat systems ever made.

>>Can only deploy one 'demon' (MC is the only one allowed to change Persona) whereas every mainline SMT focuses on the player fighting alongside 3 or more demons that they recruited, fused and chose to deploy
Yeah you fuse multiple demons for Joker to use. Not being able to deploy them all at once doesn't make it watered down, just different. If Joker has a shit Persona you're fucked.

>>One More system is all rewards, no punishment; Press Turn punishes you severely for not acknowledging enemy resistances or covering your own weaknesses
You can still easily be wiped if you're a dumb fuck. Press turns work both ways and are really easy to exploit.

Same if you wear the wrong armor or in Nocturne's case, the wrong Magatama. And you can't switch armor or Magatama during battles

>You can still easily be wiped if you're a dumb fuck. Press turns work both ways and are really easy to exploit
Yeah I see your point. Both systems work for their games. I prefer Press Turn because it rewards pre-planning more and you can get fucked as easily as you fuck over the boss, and make the fight go more smoothly overall. But I can't deny that One More and All Out Attacks is also fun as well

Wrong. P4 had a great story, or more specifically a great theme. P3 is about embracing your death and absolving your suffering. It's theological at its core hence the Christ allegory.

On the flipside P4 is about uncovering the truth, which is philosophical. This applies literally, as you solve the mystery but also uncovering the personal truths of each of your party members and the importance of saying the unsaid. The truth is out there, it must be found within yourself. This is compelling and builds much stronger relationships within your gang.

P5's plot is about rebellion and justice, and each one of your relationships is a misrepresentation by society. They care about what others think and they need to break the chains of perception to know who they are. It's sociological. The problem is that instead of finding the truth of your party members you are simply finding out what they are not. The victims of unmasking are more interesting as a result. But even then the coincidental nature of the antogonist, the lack of party chemistry and anticlimax is just a result of the theme's inability to tap into a transcendental element. It's too obsessed with making a statement.
