Why did Persona become so much more popular than SMT?

Waifus

Tumblr audience.

3 started to make the series easier, more stylish, and generally more appealing to the anime fanbase. SMT and the early Persona games are a bit niche. And I'm fine with that. Every branch of Megaten is top-tier shit.

Persona is proof that waifus can make shit games popular

Because Persona was created to be more accessible and character driven than the other MegaTen games.

People were tired of senseless chunni edgy games.

Persona is chunni but it's also fun with SoL and things like that

>Overwatch is proof that waifus can make shit games popular
ftfy
agreed though. people, adults included, would rather play as a bunch of teenagers for some reason.

>Normalfags like games with waifus
>Antisocial nerds like serious games with dark plots

I always thought it was the reverse. You lied to me /v/.

Because nintendo own SMT now.

They don't know how correctly handle that game and now the spin off is more popular thanks to sony

is this bait? Go outside for once, you fat NEET fuck.

But they didn't get IV until 2013, Strange Journey 2010. Persona was popular circa 2008 onwards while Nocturne/smt3 was released in the same decade plus other spinoffs (raidou and DDS)
>>381937272
Only one to really hit with the western market on the PS2. Usually person's first Megaten unless they played Nocturne.

Buzzwords

SMT hasn't been in a home console since Nocturne

>>381938523
>Because nintendo own SMT now.
Aren't there only two SMT games on non-Nintendo consoles? (Nocturne and Nine)

It's just back home.

What did atlus mean by this?

Why not make a merged title?

SMT game where you live as a guy attending school, but it's demon school with all smt demons for s-links and shit.

Waifus
High school with a "social life"
A more simplistic good vs bad without the intentionally depressing and offensive stuff post-apocalyptic stories bring
No worries to find the route that doesn't side with asshole angels or nothing personel demons

So SMT If.. but with SLinks.

/v/ you are but casual scum.
Why don't you play a REAL chin megoomy ten say game like nocturne or strange journey?
Persona 5 is a casualized dating sim that panders to lonely waifufags.

By merging two different styles of games in a complimentary way, Fatlus was able to bring fans from both genres together.

>>381941874
That's what SMT If.. was about. It was pretty much the precursor game to Persona. But no Social Links, those started in 3.
Translation never

>>381937272
More casual
Slightly less weird and edgy
Not handheld/Nintendo exclusive

cause the game has a lot of personaLity

>>381943001
It actually doesn't. It's very shallow compared to mainline SMT.

>>381942013
>without the intentionally depressing and offensive stuff

Lmao, there's a statutory rape and a suicide attempt in the fucking introduction of Persona 5.

>>381942919
Translation SOON my friend. They said a 2017 release is possible at this point.

>>381942705
Rog v. Tyrone was kino desu

>>381941697
DELET THIS

>Lmao, there's a statutory rape and a suicide attempt in the fucking introduction of Persona 5.

The effects of which are limited to like four people and everyone recovers from. A far cry from everyone being killed in a celestial crossfire and the world going to shit.
