Luck does the same in every game.
Increases crit chance, and increases chance of casting/dodging hama, mudo and ailments.

>tfw had more fun playing SMT 1 then P3

Jesus the gameplay of P3 is fucking horseshit. The story only kicks in like after 50% of the game dungeons are boring. How did P3 get so populor? i see P4 with everyone on your dick, the one note "anime cliche" characters and the happy upbeat murder mystery but how did P3 get so famous?
>>
>>174358395
The problem is that in some games you really don't notice much increase in Crits or Hama/Mudo hitting/dodging. You're better off equipping the Critical chance increasing passive rather than buffing Luck in DDS. At least from my experience.

P3 was radically different from previous games. SLs, dating sim elements, the JPOP soundtrack, the overall aesthetics and presentation, etc made it stand out.
>>
>>174358618
I guess it depends on the game. Crit chance always seems to be the most evasive action unless you really go crazy at dumping points into luck, but even in games where I didn't prioritize it like Nocturne, whenever I was getting hit too often by insta-kill spells or ailments, dumping a point or two into luck always helped.

Although luck is way more useful in classic style games where your summoner doesn't learn spells and he can always be a reliable item dispenser who can dodge everything thanks to high luck.
>>
>>174358617
Because setting a JRPG in a comtemporary setting was fresh and most people in the west have not played dating sim style games so the social link shit was a new experience for them.
>>
Futaba is a smelly fucking neet who fucks Slimes for free.
>>
>>174359047
Honestly, of all the times I played Nocturne and DDS I didn't notice much difference. Unlike with SMT IV and IVA where you notice the boost in Crits starting with 20~30 Lu or SH where the evasion rate and whatnot was very noticeable.

Yea you guys got a point. I still wish the gameplay wast ass so I can play it again to see how the cast is. I played P4G again to see how it compares to P5 after it came out and man, I gotta say the cast of P4 are kinda shitty/pure fan service. As "bland" as some people say the cast of SMTIV is, I found them far more intresting then Chie or anyone else in the IT
>>
>>174358395
Yeah, but it's more useful in some games, like SMT4 and P4.
>>
>>174358884
Do you have the edit with Aigis and MC?

Also yeah, I genuinely enjoy the time management aspect where you juggle between hanging out with people and getting to know them, increasing your stats, and and tackling a seemingly endless dungeon with Nocturne-lite mechanics.
Not to mention the music.
I NEVER FELT LIKE
>>
>>174359496
P4 is an odd duck even by Persona standards. Lie I wrote in the last thread, P4 has a great story theme but the writing and gameplay itself is garbage. And most of the main characters and SLs are terrible or redundant. Only Dojima, Kanji and Ai really stood up in terms of interesting writing.

I honestly can't take people complaining about P4 characters seriously anymore when Makoto is the most acclaimed character from P5
>>
>>174359748
Kanji is the ONE P4 party member I can say, I liked. I forgot my feelings for Rise and Naoto but I hated everyone else. Dojima is great but I never did Ai's slink

The Slinks in P4, for the most part are so fucking boring or shit. Comparing it to P5 in which all but like 2 Slinks are great. and the 2 arent even bad just kinda meh.

I forgot how good/bad P3 is with the expection of Moon and magican since Moon was awfull and magican was so fucking boring. Aigies and Elizabeth slink was cool.

>>174360110
> when Makoto is the most acclaimed character
Thats just wauifu fags anon. I dont think she is that bad though. But no where near my favorite party member.

Yusuke > Anne=Ryijuu > Futaba > gap > Morgana =Makoto

I havent done Haru's slink so no comment
>>
>>174360110
Still haven't touched P5. What's wrong with Makoto? Or are even any of the characters any good?
>>
>>174360351
I'm biased but I think Haru is amazing.

Anne and Ryuji have probably the most grounded and consistent good writing though. Overall the P5 cast feels like a significant upgrade over 4
>>
>>174360376
Nothing wrong with Makoto per see but she gets pushed pretty strong as canon interest and is most popular girl right now. Thats where the usual shitposting starts rolling. I do agree that she is overrated but still good character and useful healer
>>
>>174359748
I personally didn't mind yosuke, chie and yukiko.
Sure, the themes in their slinks were pretty simplistic, but they were still nice small stories.
The only character I actively dislike from 4 is Naoto.

>>174360376
She becomes the brains for a while and is the most populor girl for waifu fags. She ist bad, she gets her turn in the mud, and she fucks up at times and goes through struggles. So she ist a mary sue. Marie from P4G is a mary sue. Everyone at the geckgo loves her. Makoto straight up calls one of your teammates a slut and you and your boy delinquents so for a while your whole team hates her.

She is a good character but highly overated.

Everyone in the cast of P5 is good. Unlike P4 in which I hated most of them or P3 where I only liked a few. The cast of P2 is still the best though.
>>
Personafags should fuck off back to /pg/.
>>
>>174361039
Also anyone who hates Ryujii is dumb. like the other anon said Ann and Ryujii are the most grounded characters of P5 and are very well written together.

Unlike Chie and buttmonkey where every interaction with the buttmonkey is just phsical abuse/slipstick, this pair are and actually act like friends and not alien robots.
>>
>>174361039
A lot of Makoto's fandom are people who made their minds up about her before even playing the game because she appeals to their fetishes.

Makoto isn't that bad but she's definitely the weakest written member of the PT and her slink feels really lazy because 80% of it has nothing to do with her.

>>174361184
It's mainline because of Raidou
>>
>>174361306
Her slink is one of the worst ye. Atleast Ann(e) is about her wanting to put some effort in for once and we get to see the weeb side of her. Ryujii is another boring one as well.

These 3 slinks are the worst but are still better the ALOT of the ones in P4 and P3 and are more on the meh side then the shit side

No modern console to play P5 on so I think I'll kys my sorrows by playing some older game in the franchise

I don't own a 3DS either but I thought about playing devil summoner soul hackers, I saw that there's a PS1 version I could play since I can read moonrunes, how's that version compared to the 3DS one? Also overall looking for info on how "walkthrough reliant" that, or some of the other games like "if...", smt 2 or the devil survivor games are (in terms of making a non-obvious wrong choice or something that fucks up the actual route of the game like P1 would have done had I not known about it etc)

It gets them publicity. When P5 released there were more than a few "LMAO this game has a giant penis demon!!! So wacky!!!" videos. It makes people aware of the brand (well, Persona at least).

Persona is really bad at continuity from things like S-Links. Kind of a disappointing aspect of the newer games in the series, being all about 'relationships' that only exist in a vacuum.

Door kun is canonically the only one whose managed to harness the universe tarot so I'd give the edge to him. Trying to quantify powerin such a way is somewhat foolish. By rejecting a nihilistic outlook on life door kun became impervious to nix, however since the majority or at least a large amount of people in the persona universe still desired an end he was forced to become a bulwark against the doom that nix would bring. Joker meanwhile rejected the control that was represented by Yaldy and summoned his own god of freedom to defeat him, but he did so with the help of the general population as they woke up from their own daze and rejected control just as the phantom thieves did.
>>
>>174391443
Am not saying the ending of P5 would have been better if Potter-kun died, I loved how it ending actually, but I do want the next persona to end on a more sad note. To shake things up.
>>
>>174391850
I think joker actually earned his happy ending. He got fucked the whole game especially right at the end. Compare that to Charlie who had basically everything handed to him from the moment he got to inaba.

I think melancholy would be fine but an Innocent Sin style, you fucked up totally ending, would probably be to depressing at the end of a 90 hour game.

I am playing through nocturne but when does it go from okay to great?

I am about to face Minotaur(already have but got wrecked)

I am a Pfag and I really wanna get into mainline and theres a lot I am loving of Nocturne already except a few things.

CANNOT fucking see what certain moves do, I know what a lot are because of Persona, but theres weird ones like Shibbydibbydoo and other weird shit that arent even moves I can select so I assume they are passives.

Fusing seems way harder to get right since no Arcana XP burst.

And I have 0 fucking clue on how Magamatamas really work, or what ones I should get and use, when to equip them, how they level up and give me those moves they have, WHEN they level up, etc... Cant even find a decent guide on it.

Help me.

Ye what u see is what u get barring accidents.

When you level up, depending on what magamanta you have you will get a skill. These things also increase stats and make u null/str or weak to certain things there is a guide on what they give you.

As for moves I am pretty sure it tells you if you press a butten its been years since I played Nocturne

>>174395543
kek if you are having trouble on him buff/debuff
>>
>>174395543
Listen to the memes.
Buffs and debuffs are the way to go.

Also when a magatama is shinning and shaking, it means that you can learn new skills from it, so you should equip those at any possible instance. And if you read their affinities you can get a good idea of what kind of enemies lie ahead of you.
>>
>>174395376
There's one that gives force immunity in the shop in the underpass. It's called Hifumi, I think.

Matador rolls over and dies when you have it.
>>
>>174395376
Pause, go to the skills menu, look at all the skills your demons have when you see an unfamiliar one.
Lots of unfamiliar ones are probably status ailments (Tentarafoo, Shibaboo). Passives usually have "Gain/Surge", "Boost", "Resist/Null/Reflect/Absorb", "Might" in them. Some are negotiation skills; skills like Seduce let your demon recruit other demons with better effectiveness in some cases (ie Seduce is best used by female demons to male demons). Others like Nag let demons step in to help a negotiation. Don't underestimate them, negotiation can be a pain.

Magatamas shake on the selection screen which tells you that you can learn a skill from them. You learn skills when you level up AND if you're at the right level to be able to learn it. Ie "Gaia" might teach "Media" at level 10, so if you're level 9 and have it equipped you get nothing, but at level 10 and upwards you can choose to learn Media upon level-up.

There's only so little you can do when there are a set amount of allocated bytes per demon name, ability, etc.

BALAM for example only requires 4 characters in Japanese, so there's only 4 bytes free for him, which is why I redrew 2 Japanese characters as "LAM" to fit "B" "A" and "LAM" into 4 bytes.

Sadly I don't know the slightest about rom expansion yet.

Because the challenge is what the franchise is known for and why it doesn't sell as much as garbage like Final Fantasy?

Obscenely high random encounter rate, vague objectives, ludicrously difficult puzzles, family unfriendly stories, almost every boss feeling like they would be the final boss of different JRPG series.

>>
>>174408182
I think it's because a lot of people who are into jrpg are not used to the amount of thought you have to put into building your team, and that buffs and debuffs are actually important in the games.

In many other jrps team building is pretty much given in what you should have in team and buffs and debuffs only works on random encounter enemies which are so easy that you don't bother with that anyway.
>>
>>174408182
Buffs, debuffs, instant-death and other 'useless' skills are important. Team building is important. You have to pay more attention than 'mash x to do default attacks', and you have to be more involved than 'kill every enemy' (because sometimes you need to recruit enemies etc).

>>174408182
SMT features random encounters that can actually kill you if you don't pay attention, and that's mainly it. Status debuffs, critical hits, and misses also tend to be quite brutal in terms of consequences.

If you compare this against other big Japanese franchises (ex. Final Fantasy, Tales), random battles tend to be more resource sinks or speed bumps rather than credible threats in a single encounter.

Casuals won't even know how to make any of what you described without cheating, let alone getting to that point. Not to mention, there are no descriptions for anything.

So I just have played through SJ twice on a DS emu on my smart phone, yes on my smart phone, due to the gameplay it was a wonderful experience anyhow and I now crave more Megaten for on the go and lonely nightshifts.
Thing is, my 3DS is busted and I'm not sure if I want to send it in for repairs or get a cheap 2DS just for the other Megatens on there. Whatever I do, it will take a while.

That leaves the question, DeSu 1 for DS emu on the phone or should I wait a few weeks and get Overclocked on a 3DS system?
How much would I miss out with the original? Is the additional day and demons even worth it?

>SJ twice on a DS emu on my smart phone
You and me both.

>That leaves the question, DeSu 1 for DS emu on the phone or should I wait a few weeks and get Overclocked on a 3DS system?
I've played 1 on an emulator. Bought Overclocked for 3DS since it was cheap (already had the 3DS). I have yet to find the actual time to play it, though.

>>174412281
Playing the 3DS extra content after beating the game is literally a god's gift.

I hope they will just let you choose the source skills this time arround.
The old system was just unnecessarily annoying, since probably everyone and their dog knew you could roll again and again, once they had two viable sources for a fusion and were atleast dimly aware of what is happening on screen, atleast that's how it went for me.

desu, KMT's ost is horrible. DDS2 is something else since it pushed the limits of NES using an external audio chip, and because of that its OST is not only a paradigm shift but also much more superior.

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIO-Qat5kbA

>0:00 - 2:35 = MT2
>2:35 - end = KMT

To me, the graphics are also more aesthetic, and I'd like for myself and others to have another MT game to play since SNES already has SMT1/2 (and IF if that ever gets translated).

>I can only hope one day they will all be translated.

After MT2, I might pick up those GBC ones (Book red, white and black). I've already managed to insert english text and translate their beginnings but I stopped in favour of doing MT2.

Other than that, I dunno what else I'd work on. Definitely not IF since that's 80% (albeit locked at 80).

Does every dialogue choice matter in SMT IV, or will there be Big Important Choices™ later that determine what ending you get?
>>
>>174422421
Choices add or remove points. Negative point score leads to chaos, positive point score leads you to law, and there's about 10~ points above or below 0 that results in neutral.
>>
>>174422421
It all matters. They all add upp towards the end.
>>
Any spoiler-free guides to play the first SMT on SNES?

I just want to read a manual.
>>
>>174422421
Nope it's one of those, where you either get lucky to be neutral or had planned it out all along, since every little titbit will influence your alignment, there aren't any repeatable ways to fix it and the Big Important Choice™ will only kick it into either camp if you aren't biased halfway into law or chaos and choose the opposite respectively.
If you just want to be a law or chaos fag though, things are pretty straight forward.

Nah mate, IV:A just took the hyperbole and made Satan the ultimate counterpart to the faggot confined in his little non euclidean pillowfort.
Meaning Lucifer but also Merkabah were the contradicting power, fused together Satan, putting up the show, the eternal war between chaos and law, in plain sight while YHVH could marvel his creation in peace without getting observed.

The observation stuff is what really matters but also fucks the story in relation to the other games.

Lucifer was a closeted Law Drone created to be the ultimate villain to make YHVH's side look good. That's why he subconsciously longs for order despite being the Chaos Rep in IV and Apocalypse. It's implied that everyone except Lucifer himself knows this until his defeat at the Yamato Reactor.

Belial and Luicifiuge might be aware, but they were way too faithful to Lucifer to cross him and actually bro-tier.

P3 was sort of rigged with that shitty AI and uncontrollable party so I'll give you that. But there is nothing challenging about P4 or P5 unless you're fucking terrible at video games.

I had more difficulty with pic related at the time I was playing first time than anything in P4 even if it's from a crap ass game.

>Is that even possible? How does this lead into SJ?
Who cares, it doesn't matter.
>>
>>174459920
They're themed differently, but they're still in the Amala Network. I agree that Persona talk should be left in its own general because of how different it is, but as a continuity autist it hurts me when people say its not SMT
>>
>>174460384
>>174460538
And that's the problem here isn't it, some spergs still to this day don't even realise how good they have gotten at these games and act like anyone else has to be like them, otherwise they are trash.

I'm one of those who started out with SMTIV and has been playing Megaten games nonstop since, well aside from Persona but I'll get there eventually.
Nocturne was a breeze for me but I can understand some 12 year old faggot thinking it was the tightest shit ever back when they played it when it came out and it was their turn to learn about the debuff/buff tug of war later bosses love so much for the first time.
Same with SJ, sure it requires you to match your Demons to the gimmicks of the bosses from Ouroboros up but after 3 Mainline games and a few spinoffs that shit was easy as fuck to figure out.

>>174461264
To be fair, later half FFXIII isn't as braindead as people make it out to be, especially if you just go with the flow of game and don't grind at all, just as the game expects from you till post game.
>>
>>174461847
Yeah, but it left it on a cliffhanger. Does he win? Or does the mainline series literally go "Uhhhhh... Cliffhanger! Now here's a quirky game about the Arctic"

I don't know, how good was your Demi-fiend?

Pretty much. Continuity doesn't matter in SMT, only in Devil Summoner/Persona.
>>
>>174462580
Persona doesn't even have continuity outside of minor references. Tons of Japanese games do this, Japs hate direct sequels I guess.

>>174461264
I killed the pope in 2 tries and most P4 bosses took multiple tries, then again I always play on the hardest available difficulty.
The pope is only hard because before that point you don't need to actually learn the combat system, you can just mash X 5 stars all the time.

Will DSJ have floor jump?
>>
>>174463239
>>174463316
I've decided I'm just going to assume that he loses, but he manages to weaken the Great Will slightly, which is enough to weaken YHWH in the SJ universe, allowing the mothers or whatever to shatter him.

It's apparently confusing enough that no one will be able to prove this wrong and it helps with my sanity

depends on your build? i mean you get 5 per level so it's not like it's hard to figure out a spread you like

>>174473479
true, I think Im going to go with dex
>>
>>174473406
3 and 2 in the stats you need iirc (Strength build is STR and LCK and magic build is MAG and AGI? can't recall)
>>
>>174473406
Dex is superior to Str
>>
>>174471234
they're shitstains on mainline desu, at least they go down pretty painlessly with plenty of estoma

Dex and luck, alternatively pure mag.
pick Agi when needed, str is useless

>>174474729
I regret pumping 3/2 into dex/agi because I haven't dodged a fucking thing
>>
>>174473406
if you want to be a true patrician, then go 1 in all stats, every levellup.

if you're a pleb run a strength or magic build.

if you're a god then run a pure luck build and don't use demons for boss fights, just flynn.

>>
>>174479507
What refinements are you talking about specifically?
>>
>>174479507
DDS feels cock to play after pretty much anything, shit just takes too long in battles, otherwise it's just the usual Megaten buisness with a small party.

On that note, is Nocturne also like this? I'm just too much of a spastic to sit through 3D battle animations sober these days.
>>
>>174479507
>jumping into the older SMTs from persona 5
i do not comprehend

>>174479604
Maybe the first and foremost thing is playing Persona 5 on my gigantic HD television in all its stylish glory.

I actually purchased DDS on my PS3 and it runs like penis so I went to go emulate it and it still runs like penis.

On a gameplay note, it just feels so slower than P5 but otherwise it's alright.

>>174467584
It's myth, but it's well known enough by Atlus that they reference it occasionally. P4U had an in-game Japanese disclaimer prior to release (ie only review copies would've seen it) that if you look into a tv at midnight, you'll see footage of a game that isn't out followed by TURN IT OFF TURN IT OFF TURN IT OFF.

Actually Atlus Japan's warnings against game spoilers are usually funny and in-character. It's only Atlus USA who got super anal and threatened to ban streamers and shit over Persona 5. In Japan it's shit like "Elizabeth will Megidolaon you if you spoil yourself by playing this crane game!!!"
>>
>>174480314
I can deal with that strangely, it's random battles of that sort that wear me out.

I even like all the little animations in DDS and with the music the slower pace fits but for gods sake, not for the hundreth time within an hour.

Raidou ones gameplay doesn't hold up as well as the seconds, but it's not unplayable and it has one of the coolest stories and setting in the megaten series.
>>
>>174480881
Raidou 1 was that game where you could mash sword the entire game with a decent healing demon and nothing else mattered.

Probably the worst SMT experience of em all.

2 was cool, though.
>>

I sent a Nue into space so I rate it pretty high.

>>174480325
>It's only Atlus USA who got super anal and threatened to ban streamers and shit over Persona 5.
That decision came from Japan. People were getting strikes on youtube by streaming the japanese version back when it released as well.
>>
>>174481594
another cool feature they dropped in the second game even if it was pointless as shit was that you could control your demons for real.

Not just command them in fights, but actually leave behind Raidou a distance and fight/travel solo with them.

That was fucking cool.

Persona 4 was the right balance of serious and dark.

P5 is too dark. The fun times you mentioned get snuffed out in the second half of the game almost entirely, it's nuts.

I really fucking hope it doest get a billion spin offs. It's for sure more SMT then nu-persona including them wise. Hopefully P5babies join the "smt side" and not the waifu side.

P5 is not too dark mate. It's just playing at it. Sure there are dark moments like your pic, but the overwhelming majority of the game is spent dicking around with your friends and having fun.

The begining part and the Futaba arc and the Not!YHVH are pretty dark it's nice and am not saying it would be better if it was as dark as P3. But to say P5 is too dark is just something else. And I like P5.
>>
>>174482746
Fuck that P5 was comfy as fuck with it's music and aesthetics while managing to maintain actual stakes and have real consequences for the parties actions throughout the whole game. Meanwhile P4 was 80 hours of retards dicking around at festivals and going on trips instead of them actually investigating the killer, then at the last second they realize you haven't made an inch of actual progress the whole game and try and force the plot to move by kidnapping nanako. But even after that they realized they couldn't actually write a mystery so they just have NPC's spell out everything that happened in the last 5 hours.

They will most likely include SJ designs in the Switch game. After all, the Switch game is coming after Deep Strange Journey, so including those designs seems like a no brainer.
>>
>>174496331
Doi isn't as good as Kaneko, but he is still a worthy successor. He has a good grasp of mythology too, so he's really the best choice for the job.
>>
>tfw you were an idiot last time you played smt4 and you'vefinally gotten good
feels good lads
>>
>>174496331
Let's look at the designs Doi has done demonwise
>Mephistopheles, Cleopatra (SMTIV:A DLC)
>Krishna, Odin, Miroku, Inanna, Mitra Botatsu (Divine Powers)
>Dagda, Danu (Irish fuckers)
>Mermaid, Chironup (standalone demons)
>Sukuna Hikona (Jap Defense Force)
>Amon, Adramalech (Ars Goetia)
>Satan, YHVH (Lawguys)

I'd say at least half of these designs are solid. Mephisto, Mermaid, Chironup, Sukuna Hikona, Amon and Adramalech would make worthy additions to any SMT game. Some like Danu just need a touch up (either make the 'mask' an actual mask or give her a proper face; everything else fits really well but the Persona-esque faces on a lot of his designs let them down). I could give or take Dagda, Cleopatra or the Divine Powers showing up again. Satan is 'eh', YHVH is bad.

From a Kaneko interview (https://dijehtranslations.wordpress.com/2016/10/31/the-other-face-of-the-demon-artist-kaneko-kazuma/)
>Do you believe eroticism lies in what is left to the imagination?
Yeah. For example, not all demons are virgins. There are a lot of times when they were drawn as pure, but I personally dislike that. Especially when they are different from what I want to draw. It’s not to say that they like sex, but they do understand it and do it if they understand it; I love this kind of interpretation. Even tiny Pixie understands what it means. If it happens, how does it work? What does she do? You know, stuff like that.

>Could it be that you…?
Sometimes I do end up thinking if they do it.

>(Later in the interview) Then even though your own sexual preferences are not reflected, depending on the person….

I wonder if they see the demons as indecent. I’m interested in that. For example, if there are people who still follow Pixie’s style even though they don’t see her illustrations. I’d actually like to conduct a survey; whether people have used her as pleasure material or if she was the reason they started using this kind of material.

So I have decided to play P5 after skipping 3 and 4 for obvious reasons, I can safely say that I think this game would rank really well with me if I just had an option to mute party members, who on earth thinks this is good?
DDS2 for example had one of the best battle themes I listened to and I wanted to fight long normal battles just to hear it, in P5 even though the soundtrack isn't halfbad I just wanna get the fight over with cause of how often these fucking retarded pieces of shit talk and talk and talk.

Why couldn't they just let us switch between the 3 styles?

First time playing Devil Survivor 1.

Can you avoid letting Keisuke die to Kaido? I think I fucked up.

There has to be a fucking hack/code for this, model, texture and animations are all there.

Where does the string come from?

>>174526641
Her tampon.
>>
>>174526495
Yes. It's a bit complicated though

It's all related to that Mari lady. You gotta bring her her bag, and then tell Kaido that he should watch out for her when she goes vampire hunting. You and Kaido then help her defeat Kudlak and he agrees to not fight with Keisuke anymore to thank you

I am nearly at the end of Persona 5. Was my first game. Really like the battle system, could pass on the social side. I am gonna play a mainline SMT game next. My question is, should I do 3:N first or do 4 and then 4:A?

Or am I just doing it wrong? Any other suggestions that might be a better suit?
>>
>>174530486
SMT3 and SMT4 are both fine choices. Don't think about the order too much, it does not really matter that much.
>>
>>174530486
Better 3. 4 may cause a severe culture shock with it's gba graphics after p5. But if that doesn't bother you, go for either.
>>
>>174530658
>>174530985

GFX are not really a problem for me, I can deal with it. My main worry is QoL upgrades and just generally tightening the formula. I have been spoiled with P5 I assume. I don't know if working backwards or taking an immediate hit would be preferable with this series of games. My thoughts are to play 3 and then progress forwards. 1 & 2 look like something I could play if I get really into the series as a whole.

Also is playing 4 and then 4A likely to burn me out or are they different enough to feel enjoyable back to back.

Thanks for answers btw, this series is a bit of a monster to tackle but it feels like I have potentially found a JRPG series I actually like thematically and mechanically.

>>174531330
You'll probably get burned out if you play them back to back unless you really enjoy IV.

Playing 3 and then 4 (or first 4 then 3) would probably be more enjoyable.
Also, before 1 or 2, you might wish to try SJ (or its soon to appear 'remake' for the 3DS) first.

Consider pic related. It may be a bit old, but most stuff is still relevant.

Take your time with the series. No reason to rush things.
>>
>>174531715
I was going to play SJ next but I heard about the remake and decided to hold off. Doing that might also space out playing the games a bit more for less burnout. I think I will do 4, 3 and then 4A, just to space 4/4A out a bit and if I think I need more before the SJ remake, I will play DDS.

Wow, we haven't updated that in a long time. We need to add Persona 5 and the Strange Journey section needs to be updated to talk about Deep Strange Journey. Also talking about SMT4:A in the SMT4 section wouldn't hurt either.

I played through Persona 3-4, Q and most of Devil Survivor 1.

Just now at this moment I did the connection between "goho-m" and "go home".
