Personafags are about to get BTFO

Why not just make it a switch game? This would actually make me buy a switch.

Wow, I am so glad they added a generic anime girl to the cast of hardened soldiers. That's EXACTLY what the game needed, thanks Atlus.

>>379002839
Yeah what kind of shit is this? At least show her with her demonica helmet cradled in her arms or something. They straight up needed special gear to even step foot off their ships.

Only people who are getting BTFO'ed are SMTfags trying to stay relevant.

>>379001030
Shame this game will literally never ever come to the US. If it even does I'm betting it'll be like 2 years after JP.

You realise SJ was not well received right?

>>379004075
It wasn't well received because it didn't have an anime waifu to pander to the lowest common denominator.
They fix that problem in this remake, so it will sell millions obviously.

Do we have any more info on this game than we did a month ago?

>>379004425
How about, and follow this, they DON'T add an anime girl into the game? How does that sound?
She has no reason to be there, and to be frank, there is no reason to be remaking Strange Journey at all.

>>379004425
How can you tell, was there a new trailer? translations maybe?

>>379004661
You haven't played it so you can't say she has no reason to be there, and for people who already played the shit out of vanilla SJ, having new content is a good incentive to get them to buy the game again.

But yeah just be a bitter autist because anime. The modern SMT fanbase is so fucking insufferable. I bet if Soul Hackers came out as a new game Nemissa would be called irredeemable waifushit.

Yeah as dlc, this tiny content isn't enough to justify rebuying the whole game.

They shouldn't be wasting resources on this when an actual new SMT title is in the works

>>379005158
Wasn't Record Breaker literally the same shit? I can't remember what Overclocked did to fuck with the game though.

Great marketing strategy Atlus, praise be to your garbage company.

>>379005301
Miyako has no role in the main campaign, she only plays a role in the new one, something you can outright skip. It's not like Marie or this new chick in SJ that are involved in the main plot.

>>379005291
You must be new to SMT. Atlus has been doing this shit for years. See the four or so different rereleases of Nocturne, or the three different versions of Persona three, or the DeSu remakes.

>>379005094
ouroboros spawned uber adaptation man, yes? what I meant to imply spawning no-helmet bitch

>>379004528
It's not a remake and why was it okay when Dante was included in Nocturne and not the others?

>>379005158
I liked miyako despite her being... cliche? or whatever the word is

>>379004528
IT'S A RECIPE FOR SUCCESS

Level with me lads, should I play SJ or wait for the remake? only played nocturne and IV (not IV:A) and enjoyed the fuck out of them.

>>379005542
Because he was there as a nod to the fact that Kaneko did character designs for DMC3

>>379005291
It doesn't seem to be tiny content if she's all over the marketing, appears throughout the story, and probably has multiple endings and routes. If anything they're trying to get people to buy it again by stressing the new stuff will have a huge role.

Not sure how many resources can be shared between a 3DS remake and Unreal engine console game so I doubt thats an issue. It's more SMT and I'm happy.

>>379005623
Play it, it holds up fine. Three different endings so the remake will still have new content for you as well. They'll probably mess with the dungeon design in the remake too.

>>379005623
It's SJ but improved. Just wait.

>>379006673
personally I'd consider it easier if it allowed me to manually map the floor without having to actually walk upon a tile

>>379006673
All I know is that saving anywhere you want like in IV/IVA is apparently back in, that's enough to make the dungeons easier although I'll try not to use it,

>>379003665

Why? The first game made it out here, why not the re-release? I don't think there has been an SMT series release that hasn't made it stateside since.....fuck I can't even remember anymore but a long time. Particularly in the wake of Persona 5 it'd make little sense for Atlus not to push their brands further.

>>379004162

Except for the part where it was along with SMTIV, but I guess if something isn't the absolute best selling thing in it's entire franchise that means poor reception to /v/.

>>379004584

No. Actually to be honest I'm not even sure why this thread is here for that reason. People don't even know what's going on with it really but here are the generic obvious gripes again that haven't changed since the first trailer months ago.

>>379007024
>wanting a demon as mommy

>>379006768
It's a handheld game, saving anywhere should be a standard. Even the first handheld RPG got this right.

technically not SMT but Etrian Odyssey V so far does not exist nor is there clear indication that it ever will

taking into consideration SJ was running on some jury-rigged EO engine last I read, well..

>>379006932
Thanks for the source, but that could mean their streamlining certain elements like demon fusion, not making the dungeons easier.

>>379007189
>momma a guy is bullying me at school
>he sounds beautiful, you should be more like him

>>379007189
>but she won't teach you human ways anon
She will teach you the REAL human ways before you became weak, despondent, and dependent upon society. She will imprint her hands onto your flesh, molding your soul so it can have a beautiful sheen. You will become more human than you ever thought you could have been, you will be more, free.

>>379007208
Suspend saves would solve the handheld problem easily while not making dungeons a joke. Etrian Odyssey does that with no issues.

>>379007208
That makes no sense, with handhelds all you gotta do is turn the screen off or shut it down and then turn it back on with everything you left it as still being left, there's no point of save points everywhere

It'd be great if they gave her and other fertility demons the "COME TO YOUR MOTHER" dialogue from Inanna in IVA.

>>379007189
She could teach my dick the demon ways though, thats infinatly more valuable.

savepoints as a means of balancing forays into the schwarzvelt

>>379007298
Well this is MODERN atlus, their games have been easier and easier lately, i just hope they don't touch the dungeons

>>379005542
Dante was a character a lot of people were familiar with and his DMC1 and 2 incarnations fit with the overall tone of Nocturne. Not to mention the Kaneko designs in DMC3.

If SJ made a crossover with a Space Marine from other game I think it would be better than the generic anime girl we are getting, but I'm glad the remake is being made.

>>379007413
That wasn't always the case for handhelds, and batteries cannot always last forever, even in sleep mode after playing for a decent period. If they could do save anywhere in a RPG on a handheld in 1989 then there is zero excuse for a RPG to not do it in the 2000's and on wards.

>>379007367
>She will imprint her hands onto your flesh, molding your soul so it can have a beautiful sheen
I'm honestly not sure what you mean but that sounds hot

>>379007359
so she's full on chaos fag?

>>379007531
SMT IV Final is the hardest mainline game however.

>>379007538
Honestly Doomguy would be a perfect fit for Strange Journey if they really wanted to pull a Dante again. Not that Atlus would work with gaijin piggu.

>saving anywhere should be a standard.
>If they could do save anywhere in a RPG on a handheld in 1989 then there is zero excuse for a RPG to not do it in the 2000's
Unless, you know, it was a design decision to try to have to make the game a bit more tense without being able to save every 30 seconds. Try not being a shitter.

SJ was perfect as is why couldn't Atlus have remastered SMT I or II

>>379007773
Because that would require more work than porting a ds game to the 3ds.

>>379007753
>Defending not being able to save anywhere on a handheld game
One guy said suspended saves. That is a save that boots you out of the game and gets deleted upon loading it. That wouldn't break any balance.

No excuses for not being able to save anywhere on a handheld game.

>>379007701
No it's not. YHVH is literally the only difficult part. I had a more difficult time going through normal SMT 4

>>379007773
It would have taken too much work to do those games instead of SJ. Understandable when they have a new console game announced too.

>>379007545
I dunno, vita is pretty solid and when i turned it off and left it for 2 weeks then turned it back on shit was still alive with everything loaded up from where i left off dragons clown

>>379007870
That's the Vita, not the 3DS.

>>379007773
Because they already remastered SMT I and II.

>>379007701
Not really, the dungeons are simplified in IV/IVA

I really can't imagine that that's going to happen. Marie was just all around fucking terrible and just an excuse to shoehorn a popular voice actor into the game as her career was peaking. Like quite literally the Poochy of JRPGs.

I mean I know this would never sit well with all the screamers here but I'm of the wait and see what happens before engaging full meltdown variety of gamer but that's not what gets the most replies now is it? It's constant hysteria and hyperbole much like how CNN and Fox News get people to tune in.

>Nocturne added multiple dungeons
A single multi floored dungeon you dishonest fuck, and the bosses you fight them out in the world with no context or reason for where they are, with only Metatron , Beelzebub and Abaddon being bosses for the dungeon itself and its funny how you ignore how P4G added a new dungeon with bosses and everything, same with P3fes that had a whole new story and with dungeons and bosses, same for DeSu2BR and teh EOU games

It's basically 5 separate dungeons that each are different from each other besides the aesthetic with new puzzles and approaches to completing each kapla, that's a lot of content than some P3/4's dungeon that's empty as fuck that can be fully explored in 30 minutes.

Atlus doesn't give a shit about anyone outside of Japan. They never have, and it doesn't look like they ever will. It's funny how a company that has the potential to produce such nice games seems to just flat out hate its audience so much that they don't even want to take their money.

Why do people meme about having to fuse demons constantly in these games? I'm going through Strange Journey, and I've steamrolled through the past two sectors with Doppelganger, Matador, and Black Frost

Good demons in most of the games will usually last you a minimum of 10 levels, 20 if it's a really good fuse. It's the fact you have the potential to fuse any time you want to get exactly the kind of setup you want that makes it special.

>>379020725
Fair enough. If it transfers over to Switch or Persona I riot

>>379020725
Being able to save anywhere makes the game piss easy because you can just save every 3 minutes, there's basically zero chance of losing any real progress.

There is nothing challenging about artificial difficulty.

>>379020910
That depends on how it's implemented, it doesn't help you at all in Etrian Odyssey for example.

>>379021234
In Etrian Odyssey you can only save in towns, except for suspended saves. Completely different thing.

>>379021107
>Implying that's artificial difficulty
If you can save anywhere it defeats the whole point of a dungeon.

It's less of a deal in IV, which has no dungeons, but regardless, it's a part of the RPG experience.

>>379021310
MegaTen should steal the saving system from EO.

>>379002474
Honestly if they made the switch the smt machine and started porting all the handheld games I would be pretty stoked.

I have faith smt hd will be great. I wonder if it's also going to ps4? Either way I'll probably get it for Switch unless another version is better.

>>379021310
>suspended saves
That's still saving anywhere, a basic feature for handheld RPGs.

>>379021537
Suspend saving is different because it doesn't allow you to save scum.

>>379021537
Except it's not, because you're still in the dungeon when you get back you mongoloid, and your save goes away when you load. You don't get to keep reloading the suspended save.

>>379021578
But it's still saving, like auto-saving, other aystem that doesn't allow save scum.

>>379020910

Then don't save every 3 minutes? A game's difficulty should be in the challenge of each individual encounter, not in how much progress you lose when the game randomly decides to bullshit you. IVA isn't an attrition based dungeon crawler like SJ either so its not necessary to force you to trek through areas when you die.

>>379021350
Different types of RPGs. As you said, IVA doesn't really have long dungeons so its not necessary to punish you by losing progress. Xenoblade doesn't need to punish you by setting you back because its not a dungeon crawler and attrition isn't a part of the game. And again, if it bothers you so much, don't save all the time. You can save anywhere because its a handheld game and its a convenience for people who actually play on the go.

>>379020470

The writing in IVA is some of the best that SMT had. Its like night and day with IV where IV really relied on atmosphere over any sort of plot. The metaphysical stuff in IVA is way more interesting. The only part where I'd say the writing really dropped the ball was when Toki betrays you after just swearing to always be at your side.

>>379021578
>>379021604

Then don't save scum. The fact that you can abuse the saves is a problem with the player and not the game.

>>379021878
>The fact that you can abuse the saves is a problem with the player and not the game.
No, it is most definitely a problem with the game. It is also a problem with the player, but it's primarily a problem with the game. It encourages a shitty playstyle.

>>379017732
he gave you an argument for why Nocturnes re-release was good you autist, and you're still sperging out.

>>379022403
>he gave you an argument for why Nocturnes re-release was good

Things go badly, as is typical for the series.

As far as gameplay goes, there's no press turn, so it's pretty much nothing like Apocalypse right off the bat. Also all the dungeons are in first person, so I hope you have experience with other first person dungeon crawlers and are not afraid to crabwalk against walls to find hidden paths.
