So, are you going to buy Etrian Odyssey V?
>>379534284
Do I have to play the other games before it first?
>>379535437
Nope. Not at all
I will not buy it which will eventually lead to the studio going out of business and that dude will be forced to draw porn for a living again.
No money spent, Everyone wins.
>>379534284
Not after the abomination 4 was, I'd rather get eo3 untold than 5. It doesn't help that 5 is supposedly as easy as 4, which is already a joke.1 point proficiencies were a huge mistake to begin with
I want to fuck a rabbit.
>>379534284
No dual audio no buy.
>>379536648
This kind of rabbit?
>>379534284
Probably.
Even though it's even easier than IV.
I didn't really like 4 so I'm probably not going to buy 5.
>>379534284
I don't have a 3DS. There is no model of a 3DS that is worth the price. If the original 3DS or the new, actually portable this time, 2DS was $80 I might pick one up.
>>379536446
>>379536987
hold up. There is no sub classing or grimoires. how the hell is it easier then 4?
>>379534284
Yes
I will buy Nene's game
>>379535910
Nintendo and SE already pay him to draw things too
>>379534284
>buy
>>379534284
Yes, I got a good amount of enjoyment out of IV.
>>379534284
Hell yeah
Kinda sad there won't be an EOU3, I wanted to line up all EO games on my 3DS. It's also the only one I've yet to play, and it's supposed to be the best
>>379538176
There might be no sub classes, but every class has two specializations and, honestly, almost every combination works. Unlike other EOs, this game doesn't really punish you for mistakes.
I don't know how they managed to make it so easy.
I completed it in Japanese without being able to read a single word on hard and it was easier than playing EO4 in English.
>>379538415
It's like you want the games not to be localized.
>>379538176
You know what happens when you get rid of subclassing in a game like this? You gotta pump stats and skills to every class individually making them better all around without having to spend points on your subclass, that also applies to your stats.
If you played 4, which I assume you did, you can see an example of this in the imperialist class, that class was almost perfect by itself as a damage dealer because of how much damage it could create without the need of actually making a build around gimmicks with a subclass, and how shitty the class was as a subclass itself.
A second problem with the game is the fact the game gives you a lot of freedom early on thanks to the fact you only need to invest 1 point out of the three they give you early on into the "Proficiency" skill, which boosts your characters way too much for the one point you need to sacrifice every 20 levels, making the early game more of a joke
>>379538765
The lack of lolis makes we not want to buy.
>>379539282
Yeah, I wonder why he made so many tittymonsters. One of two npcs is fine, but not the majority of the cast
>>379538927
what the fuck is this. the damn interview they did with gematsu said they wanted to go away from OP nonsense. I just want an EO 3 experience again. Just minus the ways to break the game. Playing that shit with my party from start to end minus the 6th dungeon boss was 10/10
>>379539282
You can just make your own
>>379539823
They can't just get away with making Cowtit odyssey. They need to realize that they made a mistake.
>>379539774
It's too late man, game is going downwards faster and faster with every release.
I don't think you are even ready to see how fucking easy EO5 actually is.
Fuck yeah no Atlus tax for EOV
http://gematsu.com/2017/06/etrian-odyssey-v-beyond-myth-coming-americas-fall
Will be $40 instead of $50.
>>379539551
Which series is this gif from?
>>379539551

>Women having breasts is bad.
Hello tumblr.
>>379540492
>>379540483
Dunno, saved it from an earlier EO thread
>>379534284
no i fucking suck at any one of these games i pick up. Im tired of getting ganked by level 99 monsters in low level areas when im trying to learn the game still
>>379540502
Can't you just be happy that the majority of shit already panders to your tastes? Why does it have to spread like cancer and ruin it for everyone else?
>>379534284
Oh yeah. I might end up rolling with the cover art party members, looks like a solid party configuration.
Got the jpn version from freeshop and I'm excited to be able to play the game without a fuckin translation spreadsheet
>>379540483
>>379540492
Kono Bijutsu-bu ni wa Mondai ga Aru
>>379541245
thanks
>>379541384
You're welcome.
>>379534284
Why do these 9 year olds have huge breasts?
>>379540856
>Can't you just be happy that the majority of shit already panders to your tastes?
What makes you think I care for cowtits? I'm just sick of people crying whenever something doesn't cater to their fetishes. I don't give a fuck if they're a minority or not.
No this series is boring.
>>379534284
Probably.I already got an RP scenario for the party worked out kinda.
>>379534284
yes, hopefully it comes out in Europe soon after the US release and not like half a year later
>>379534284
Too late to buy it with hacked 3ds' for me. I'll play it, but not buy it.
http://edit.s2.xrea.com/sq5/
So, what's everyone planning on running the first time through?
im gonna buy 5 copies no joke
No. I am, however, going to pirate it.
>>379534284
>spending actual money on wizardry for pedophiles
>>379546094
lolicons are not pedophiles
no 3D girl in existence looks like pic related
>>379546276
>lolicons are not paedophiles
Is this the new "liking traps doesn't make me gay"?
>>379544952
Something like this, how versatile are the classes and their skill trees?
>>379546276
i dunno some of those nude modelling sets have outfits like that
>>379546548
Hey buddy I think you got the wrong site, the reddit club is two sites down.
>>379546548
No because at least liking lolis doesn't make you gay.
>>379546587
From what I heard there are no subclasses, but specializations make the game easy anyways.
Nah. After playing Persona Q I've determined that I hate EO style games.
>>379547381
Persona Q is pretty bad compared to the other EO games
>>379547451
So no getting jumped by random encounters and being wiped out before getting a chance to even try to fight?
>>379547712
It happens very rarely, but persona is far far worse about it than etrian
>>379547712
you'll get random encounters, but they wont be the deadly foes that walk around on map as you have to run into those, but there's no reason to walk on every square like there is in Persona Q
>>379547381
If you like the SMT series/spin offs, try Strange Journey for a game closer to EO.
Anyone tried Stranger of Sword City? Thinking of getting the updated version on the vita. How does it compare to EO2U's classic mode?
I want to finish one of them. I keep starting 1 and getting to the second stratum and just getting bored of all the grinding that's necessary. Do the later games fix that at all? I mean, I don't mind a bit of grinding but you have to spend hours just fighting the same mobs to get the gear from their drops.
>have played all 7 etrian odyssey games released in the west
>the ONLY complaint I ever had was that there was too many lolis, but it was only an extreme nit pick and never an actual issue for me
>tfw etrian odyssey 5 is perfection
>>379547997
In 4 and the untolds there is no grinding required
>>379547912
I only played a little of SoSC. It feels too different to me. I was going through battles pretty easily and it just didn't feel as fun as EO. I really like the atmosphere and aesthetic of SoSC though. Party management also didn't feel as interesting.
>>379548129
>random upon random grimoire stones
>upgrade kitchen/house
>making rare equipment
Yep, no grinding required at all
>>379539823
you dont even see your party 99% of the time.
I hope to pick it up with a new 2DS.
I love bunnies.
>>379548802
That's all endgame grinding though. Anon was complaining about not being able to proceed to the second stratum without having to spend hours grinding Tree rats.
>>379540856
What if we aren't degenerate fetishists and want to play a weeb DRPG because we like the gameplay and cartography?
>>379547381
Persona Q is horribly unbalanced. You either wipe out the enemy instantly or the enemy wrecks you very fast.
Please go try the demo of Etrian Odyssey IV on the eShop before judging the whole series by PQ's gameplay.
>>379540385
I knew that the Atlus tax was Hardin's fault
F O E
>Buying
I'm pirating it when the game releases, along with Strange Journey.
