EOV never

Lost all hope for EOV, but then again Sega made us wait on Yakuza 5 for a couple of years too. A Switch game would probably just have a map screen of smartphone/tablet app. Or they include pen and paper with the game.

I seriously doubt there will be another main etrian game especially on the switch. A spiritual successor? Sure, but lacking the map features is hard to ignore

Make one.

I'm currently new to the series and am having a blast with my current set up in EO4. Using Fortress, Landsknecht, Dancer / Sniper and Medic.

Just beat the Hollow Queen in the second main dungeon, will I unlock anything new soon? (Airship height, classes, etc)

I'm the only one that hates all the 6th statums? Just in terms of design and music, they always look and sound extremely bad.

I am a faggot, so I don't know, maybe it's just that.

>>378014830
I never did any of those. I hoped I would in EOV when it comes out in the west, but it never did.

>>378014746
Yeh, you are going to get the Arcanist which is probably my favourite class in terms of gameplay. Hope it is the returning class for EOU3.

Wouldn't mind if they just dropped the map drawing and used Etrian to just make DRPGs.

Works amazingly for plenty of other games.
EO still has unique things

Why do people think they won't localize 5?

>>378013786
Why hasnt anybody translated the past few Minami star doujins?
They are top tier hentai and are some of the best rape and forced orgasm doujins I have read

>>378014893
I spoiled myself on the OST and it's fucking horrible. Sounds super similar to 4.

>>378015187
I dunno, it's just been so fucking long already. Plus there's this whole 3DS piracy boogeyman.

>>378015280
Good thing I never played 4 then. I really don't like the idea of not having one huge Yggdrasil dungeon.

Still no word on Coven or Demon Gaze 2 in English.
Fucking sucks. NISA would rather localize overpriced doujin trash than their good IPs.
It makes no fucking sense either, Demon Gaze sold pretty well and while Coven would be a bit of a risk I feel like Harada's art alone would already give them a decent enough demographic if they advertised it right.

At least we'll hopefully get DT2-2 at some point, they haven't said anything about that either but I have much higher hopes for that then the NIS titles.

>>378015187
it sells like shit and we havent heard anything in a year.

>>378016923
You can have up to 40 party members at once actually.
You have 5 squads you control, "covens", and each of them can have up to 3 frontline and 5 backline characters. It's a really neat system.

It works a bit like the rooms in Soul Nomad if you played that, they obviously took heavy inspiration from it. You don't actually controll that many characters but just their squads, oftentimes going with the 3 front 5 in the back option is the worst thing you can do, there are set ups like having a single frontliner that tanks and deals huge hits because he's supported by 3 backline healers and buffers for example.

Coven is pretty much Witch and the Hundred Knight x Soul Nomad x Dungeon Crawler goodness. It's dark as fuck and half the characters come across as sadistic psychopaths at first, but it has one of the best stories NIS has ever done

Actually just finished playing through 4 recently. Enjoyed it quite a bit. Thought the Bushi were kind of cute.

Respec'ing is basically free in the Untold games though, you only lose 2 levels from Resting. I'd be really surprised if there was a combination of classes that just straight up isn't able to beat the superbosses, much less "just" the final boss

What the other person said. Rest is not ten fucking levels like it was in the original
And I think you get lv1 skills just by focusing on the masteries so there is also that

>>378020298
>>378019994
Fair enough. However, my other issue is that I don't want to use the story party, but they have story-locked content (at least 1 does, if I recall correctly). Also, weren't bosses in 2U balanced around the main boy? That was also a pain for my custom party.

>>378020629
I haven't played U2, but EOU has one story exclusive side dungeon, yeah. Kinda sucks, but what can you do.
More incentive to replay it at some point if you want to play Classic first I guess.

>>378020629
In U2 nothing is locked out of classic but the story MC class. Also yes, boss HP is bloated but so is outgoing PC damage as well, across the board. You can definitely reach and exceed Fafnir-levels of damage with other classes/setups.

Ok, any tips for a newbie? I'm awful at dungeon crawlers haha.

>>378021961
EO4 is a great entry point in terms of EO, if that's the case. Just have a Protector and a Medic in your party for defense and healing and be sure to always stock up on Ariadne Thread.

>>378021961

Get at least one healer. Being able to bind the ennemy is also great. Don't hesitate to look up what is the meta to get a good idea of an effective party, then mix and match to create yoyr own party.

Subclassing makes the game broken anyway

>>378021961
Play it mostly blind, check what skills do if you must. It's actually a really simple game and discovering what classes work well with others is part of the fun.

>>378017813
>Hundred Knight x Soul Nomad x Dungeon Crawler
Dang that sounds dank. Why haven't they brought this over? You'd think games with darker themes would do much better in the west than in nippon

>>378023253
Because it's on the Vita. Probably doesn't help that it's a complicated dungeon crawler and not just a mash X JRPG with doe eyed moeblobs either.
About the only thing you can hope for is for it to get a PC port at some point, but the chances of that are slim to none.
T-then again, this is going to be the first E3 since it came out last August. Who am I kidding

>>378017813
I didn't know I wanted this. Now I'm mad we won't get it.

>>378015187
Atlas rather bring a subpar Vita game (Caligula Effect) to the west than EOV

really makes u think

>>378024741
>subpar Vita game (Caligula Effect)
It's a fucking FuRyu game. It's not subpar, it's near shit. And it doesn't help the case when the hired developer, Aquria used icons from SAO games on it because of the tight budget.

>>378023853
They've been localizing pretty much all their other games though. The Operation Abyss games aren't exactly that much more mainstream and we even ended up getting ClaDun Sengoku, which people thought we'd never see. I really don't understand why they are skipping Coven in particular.

ayyy, eou2 on 3ds or eo3 on 3ds? which should I play

Literally the only good thing about eo are the delicious loli

EO is ugly barebones autistic shit and its creator bluntly says that players must imagine things on their own because he was too lazy to put any effort into character interactions.

nintenqueers only promote EO because it's literally the only dungeon crawler on their abandoned by god hardware
