Is it to edgy for a remake?

>>376376452
no, it's just not an instant cash generator like the highschool date sim version of smt

What's edgy? Ambassador Thorman, dropper of nukes?

>>376376574
Your mom getting killed in front of you, killing your friends, only YHWH is missing

He isn't D E E P enough for a remake

not any more or less edgy than most of the SMT games.

it could use one too, because even though I like the game, its probably the hardest one in the mainline series to replay since it came out in what, 91? And is slow as fuck with sanity draining dungeons

>>376377357
PS1 version is much better about that.

It already had a remake.

Now, if you mean should it get a modern Nocturne/P5 style remake, then yes. Go the FFIII route and give some more personality to your companions and canon names, and expand on it. SMT1 is a interesting game, but the first person stuff does get in the way.

>>376377357
SMT2 was worse with all the backtrack, if you choose neutral

>>376377818
it really needs a SJ type of remake not a nocturne / P5 remake, who the fuck would want an SMT game to be remade in persona style? they did that with the first persona game (which is still more SMT than persona as it is now), and it was a disaster with the shoehorned engrish music

>>376378027
>they did that with the first persona game

No, they ported it but replaced the soundtrack. People want an actual remake.

what's the point? they'll just put modern anime into it and it'll be ruined like with strange journey. the ios version while perfectly fine takes out a lot of the atmosphere of the original already, so there's really no point, punk spirit is dead, etc.

>>376376452
I want a remake of 1-2 on 4A engine.

I was hoping 3DS project would be this, instead of DEEP Strange Journey.

>>376376452
its too 90s to get a remake

>>376379819
That is the charm

>>376376452
Has anyone here actually played any 1? I fucking tried to, but I gave up when I learned it's a first person dungeon crawler. I honestly can't fucking tell where I'm going...

>>376376574
To be fair japs making a game where they get nuked again is really fucking edgy.

>>376380102
Git gud

>>376380102
I'm getting into SMT by playing 1 and Nocturne.
The style of 1 takes a while to get used to but after that it's pretty fun.

I want SMT If... to be remade so that we can get an English release of it. The same could be said of Devil Summoner, but I think that got a port or something on the PSP yet remained in Japan only for some reason.

>>376380102
1 is literally the only one i've played, its not that hard to get into, and the characters are pretty cool. The only thing that i didn't liked was that Steven backstory was never explained, is he mentioned in another game?

He show up in Apocalypse which also reveal nothing except he can jump between universe, act under orders of the Great Will and can stand up

>>376381167
>can stand up
No fucking way

At least the jump between universe would explain how he doesn't get old and survives the thormaggedon

>>376381167
>Aleph's outfit

>>376382883
Cool right?

>>376381018
Stephen appears in every mainline game.
If I remember correctly Stephen is the one who made the Devil Summoning program; however I'm not sure what game explains that.
Somehow that makes him ascend to a higher existence.

>>376383280
He doesn't appear on nocturne (although there is an old man on a wheelchair), he explains that he created the Devil summoning program in SMT1

Apparently they explain more about him in an interview. When you reach the battle with VISHNUFLYNN, there is a reference point of the soul, where it either enters or departs from the circle of transmigration. Nanashi is in the middle of that circle, he is a human just like us. That is the reference. Beings like Stephen, Mido, or the Count of Saint Germain left the circle of transmigration. In Buddhism, leaving the circle of transmigration equals reaching Nirvana and becoming a buddha.

God I love Nakajima
I only reached Minotaur in his game, sadly. But he's a cool dude with a cool girlfriend.

>>376383747
Is that the dude from the OVA with rape jelly, or is his game counterpart different?

>>376384114
yes it's him

OVA was adapted from the 1st book, game takes place after the 2nd book

>>376376452
Atlus was probably just waiting for Persona 5 to release before reusing demons and other assets to pump out more MegaTen games just like they did on the PS2.

That said; I'm excited for SMT HD and hoping it'll be a remake of any of the following:
>If
>Nine
>Kyuuyaku / Megami Tensei I and II
>SMT I and II
>Majin Tensei I and II
>Devil Summoner

That's wishful thinking though. Odds are it's just a new MegaTen IP or SMTV.

>>376383993
You should read the light novels. Nakajima's a pretty shitty person.

>>376384372
it's pretty obviously SMTV
i just hope it lives up to the atmosphere of IV. that screenshot of the desert is concerning, what a stale setting.
