She's a demi-fiend that gets thrown into the Schwarzwelt through the Amala Network that at first glance seems to have a hard outer shell, but once she gets saved by the player during the mid game and finally finds someone she can rely on you find out that it was all just an act and she was really doggo all along.

Just beat the loli twins in P5 and for a secret boss it was't all that hard. Like yea I died a few times (3-4) but maxing strength (which you need to do anyways) allows for some OP persona, Got by with Lucifer and debilitating them then a concentration followed by a fallen star. Makoto was on healing duty and Ryujii and Yosoke on damage. They all buffed when needed to. Then again I did it on normal but the hardest bosses of SMT are hard even on Normal (Demi fucker, Satan, Lucifer and tower of bel)

Maybe its one of those "Hard is actually normal" or something like in Fire emblem

I think so.
Is this your first SMT game? If so Buy IV since its better and it came first story wise

>>175206474
probably a good neutral route that fixes the problem of the scwarzwelt

probably nothing else if that
>>
>>175212261
Oh, no, I played IV already. I didn't really like it because of all the lack of quality of life improvement it lacked that Apocalypse has (mainly that god awful world map). Idk, I didn't care for it much since having no clue where to go most of the time just killed my motivation for a lot of the segments.
>>
>>175211271
Was desu1 the one where you could actually show the lawfags they don't actually need to kill everyone and they actually listen?
>>
>>175212467
Yes and is the best ending in the game desu. I wish LAW was more like that instead of pure communism. But then no one would chose neutral which would cause the Apocalypse or something according to atlus.
>>
>>175211369
SMT4 is atlus's third best selling game behind p4 and p5, I believe. It got half a million units sold by 2014.

Final's sales are nothing concrete yet but it's done exceptionally well for a spinoff game.

You could just look at a map of Tokyo. Its not even that bad. SMT 1 was worse.Or stop being such a casual.

>stop being such a casual
Got something against Casualry? After claiming to love IV you go around saying stuff like this? Disgusting.
>>
>>175212819
A little bit of VGChartz and Wikipedia. Not the best of sources, I understand - Wikipedia claims 4 has sold 600k copies while VGC claims it's around 530k. The wikipedia info looks like it was copied off siliconera, cuz i'm seeing the same data for final's on debut week and 4's overall on both sites.

As for how 4 and final did as 3ds games, well, they're not really breaking any records - for comparison, I think the best selling 3ds game atm is pokemon x/y with some 14-15 mil sales - but it's done extremely well for a third party release.

it costs less. charge +5 is only like 4 mp or something. worth it when you get better physical attacks that require more mp, each individual cost for charge adds up pretty quick.

it's not an smt game - in fact, it's even less smt than persona. the characters have such an obvious development path and feel like basic tropes. you're supposed to really only care about them because of the mental struggle they endure with the world around them and the cannibalism, and that's about it. plus, sera's existence ruins fucking everything. even fucking final of all things, the game that brought us homeslice and waifus, understood how to keep a plot moving with events - neither dds1 and dds2 know how to.

gameplay is basically final fantasy with a few basic twists like mantras, it gets utterly goddamn boring by the mid late game (a problem no other smt has thanks to fusion, which you seem to not care for). not really difficult in any sense, music isn't much to write home about, graphics are just kind of OK.

they're all right games but how they've been elevated to the status they are now by /smtg/ is baffling. i wonder how people can get so assblasted over some choices modern atlus has made and then turn around and praise dds1 and 2 like the holy grail

P5 Yaldabaoth represents exactly what the gnostic demiurge is, except it's created by humanity rather than a higher divine entity. And he became pretty much real right before the final dungeon.
P3 Nyx isn't the actual goddess, but an entity that's given that name by the Kirijo Group researchers.

Oh and the final dungeon is like SMT 1 in the chaos route, you fight the 4 archangels before last boss and Gabriel being the least hostile and tries to get you to stop is a callback to Gabriel not being a cunt in SMT 2. Lots of people who work on nocturne worked on P5

I had navarre crush my items first time through. ended up making more bonds decisions than I thought I would and was pleasantly surprised that I could pick my ending, but thought it was kind of dumb how they penalized you.

dagda removing all the demons from your comp would be absolutely crushing. i'd imagine you'd just have to be going anarchy and just wanted to see what it looks like. recovering from losing my items was easy enough, even on apocalypse mode, but losing demons from the comp...fuck.

>>175223139
What do my personal favorite games have to do with this? You can personally still like games that are 6 or 7/10's. Nier Automata is one of my favorite games and I wouldn't give that game above a 7/10. I can easily see how someone could dislike it.

All I'm saying is that the reason there is so much shit-flinging in the SMT community is the same reason there's so much shit-flinging in the Gundam community, neither of the series have something that nearly everyone can agree is great because neither series has that one thing that actually is great. Nocturne and SJ despite usually being at the tops of peoples lists are still heavily flawed, just like Zeta and Turn A.

You just suck if you have to grind in Nocturne my man, git gud. If you droped Nocturne for its difficulty then mainline might not be for you. Neither is any good video game worth its salt if you drop it for being hard.

If your phone can handle it, emulate SJ if you like puzzles or check out the starter guide in the OP. Other then being a casual we dont know what you are into
>>
>>175224294

Then what is a 10/10 to you? I mean, we complain about shit, I was talking about how DeSu2 can suck on my shlong for it's writing, but I'd consider this series to be in terms of quality the highest of the major JRPG franchises (It's more consistent than FF, isn't the exact same game like Dragon Quest even though I like DQ and isn't bland animu trend of the month like the Tales of series.

The Resident Evil remake. It does everything the series is known for incredibly well and then some. None of its flaws hurt the core experience enough to bring it down any points. Its the only game I've ever played that I think is a legit 10/10. But this is just my shitty opinion so feel free to ignore it.

While I really like SMT I feel about it almost the same way I feel about the Souls series. They're good games all in all but I feel like they've barely scratched the surface on what their series are capable of. Sorry for being a fag

So, I just finished Ikebukuro Tunnel in Nocturne and it really deflated me. I don't know the game has some really cool concepts and ideas but I just have been finding the game getting more and more tedious.

Is this a common feeling? Do you think it'd be worth continuing? Is the ending worth going through the rest of the game? Do you think I could try another SMT game or do you think I would just feel the same?

The one where you fight the 4 Oni pretty much back to back. Ongyo-Ki being the last one.

>>175232778
I don't particularly enjoy the dungeons, the encounter rate is fairly high and I often fight against 4-6 enemies with a decent chance of reinforcements, which leads to me using quite a bit of MP without a whole lot of MP regen, I feel like I need to grind a lot to stay on top of things and I probably just suck at the negotiations but I am not a big fan of them.

Thankfully I've been using a guide so the boss fights haven't been too troublesome although I have died a few times to some silly shit.

Maybe try SMT IV? The encounter rate is non-existent because there are no random battles.

I can understand using a guide for some annoying as fuck dungeons in amala even though it ruins the point of them but a guide for bosses is kinda wimpy.

Yahtzee dislikes the demon gathering, ability to fuse demons, turn based battle system, the fact you can talk to enemies and not just fight them and the fact that boss battles are long and involve taking advantage of weaknesses.

Yes. The best talent is obviously with the Persona/Hashino team. Any failings are the result of them being held back by the fact that their games are meant to target more casual players.

The SMT team is where they assign the B-talent to pump out some cheap handheld games.

http://www.mobygames.com/developer/sheet/view/developerId,280690/

Though keep in mind this site uses English Titles when available, so even though it says he's the director of Nocturne, he's actually the director of the Maniax rerelease, and was only a scenerio writer in the original.

I also have high hopes for Yamai.
As much as the edgy anons from this general say they didn't like the latest games in the series, IV was fun. I loved the whole being a hunter in a forever dark tokyo. I miss having to go back to associations though, they only serve as heal spots now, kinda sad on IV:A.

What a waste of talent, with Mitsuru Hirata working on the Radiant Historia remake too. Put Yamai on Raidou 3 or something else,

My current loadout is:
Focus

Freikugel

This is Nocturne? Doesn't really matter. If you have Freikugel your entire boss strategy is going to be spamming focus and freikugel while using your demons just to buff, heal and pass turns to you.

On the other hand P3 has my favorite story, plus I think they did a good job making the characters their own characters rather than making the game a harem simulator.

P5 is better than P4 about that but characters are still really glossy and made to appeal to as many people as possible.

DeSu 1. DeSu 2 went balls to the wall on the min-max regard and instead gave you even more bullshit bosses. It was mitigated a lot by how strong you could get very quickly.

DeSu 1 basically punishes min-maxing because most skills required at least two stats, so even if you're going a magic build you need to have Agi roughly around the same as Mag until the mid-game, some Vit and at least 10 Str. This also means that more spread build were completely viable, for instance Gin had a very mixed spread with at around level 50 he had 19 Str, 13 Mag and about 16 Agi and Vit. This meant that he could deal enough damage with Death Bound to kill your enemies, Mediarahan himself and/or Revive his demons and equip nearly every skill relevant to him if not every skill. Hell if Gin chooses the right opponent at the begining of his "rescue" mission he can solo his half of the map by himself. Gin was way too good of a character, I miss him.

YHVH, Second Form
The corrupted figure that appears depending on the player’s choices; therefore, it is not the true god's form. Depending on the way Christianity was propagated, the inconvenient local gods were slandered and degraded. These gods were given the extreme forms of demons, the animals and reptiles they disliked, but in this game irony has it that YHVH’s second form is degraded by the very entities he hated.

Profile: The first form was the head of the first man, Adam, created in his own image. However, the second form turns into a strange chimera that resembles a demon. The goat wanted by god in the Scriptures, the snake that tempted Eve in Eden or the swarm of locusts that appeared in the Exodus, threatening the Pharaoh if he refused to free the Jews, all can be seen in this form. Each part of the chimera is connected to the other.

Well, note that the Septentrione from DeSu2 were specifically not demons and they wanted to make them stand out with those 3d designs. At the time, they clearly still wanted to avoid non-Kaneko demons. Maybe he'll get to design new demons if they bring him back for a DeSu3.

Although I don't think I've ever seen him designing monstrous creatures, so I'm not sure if he'd be good for it.

What's the point of the death clock if youre able to change it? If the clock is able to see the future then it should already know to change.

This doesnt logically make any sense
>>
>>175296972
They explain this in the game anon. The death clocks are made from looking at every possible variable in the lockdown and then predicting what will happen. It's not like it knows the future for sure.
>>
>>175295560

I don't think that really counts. When demons fuse they gain a different identity after all. So, it's not Lucifer anymore.

>>175296972

It's clearly the type of future vision where the future vision itself isn't part of the future shown by it.

Sub. I haven't even listened to the dub yet, maybe in NG+.

Morgana's english voice actor sounds like a children and does't suit it. Futaba despite being the youngest, now sounds the oldest and Haru is cancer

Ryuji (who is voiced by the same dude who voiced Dagda) is the only one who is legitimately good. Most other VA's dont have enough range or emotions. This one scene when Futaba comes out of the closet, the English va does a horrible job delivering her lines especially when compared to the Jap va. Plus Joker-kun is voiced by lelouch so come on, its not even a choice

Excuse me,

I finally want to get around to playing Eternal Punishment, it and P1 are the last Personas I haven't played and I really want to finish the P2 story.

Sorry if I should post this in the Persona general, but I figured that was only for P4/5 waifuposting.
>>
>>175309850
When I was younger I found PS1 emulation to be shit but I dont know if that WAS the case or if I was dumb. If you have a vita (pfft) you can play it on the go like me. Only reason why I dont regret buying it 100%. PS1 on the go is kinda cool

Must've just been someone trolling my gullible ass again.

That's way over the top, you should not have to grind at all. Just do it at whatever level you happen to get there, you can kill the final boss in TDE on Hard in your 60-70s no problem. The Hard TDE speedrun kills it in like the high 40s or something with only the Demifiend having Pierce if I remember right

ryuji's VA is fucking awful in that it completely misses the point of the character. Listening to the JP audio after hearing the dub, Ryuji is supposed to come off like a punk. Dub Ryuji is closer to Yosuke when he should be more like Kanji.

That said, IVA has top-notch gameplay and overall good quality, but the writing on the characters is quite lacking.
IV isn't as polished gameplay-wise (don't be surprised if you need to use a guide sometimes to figure out where to go), but the writing's better. Not the greatest, but still fun.

If you're playing IVA, set it to War mode so it's a bit more challenging.

Don't start this series off with Apocalypse. Apoc has a shit ton of demons which means it's going to be hard to go back to earlier titles. It's also more lighthearted than previous games and isn't going to give you a sense of what this series is really about.

Start with Nocturne, it's the best starting point, then move onto the 3ds games like soul hackers, 4, apocalypse (another thing about apoc is it's a sequel to 4 and you're kind of expected to know everything about 4 first), devil survivor overclocked, and then from there branch out.

This series is nothing like Pokemon - you do 'get' a variety of different creatures, but unlike in pokemon where you form a core team, in smt you get demons to continue fusing them into constantly more powerful ones.

What is up with people wanting to get into SMT with SMTIV:A is't it obvious that its a sequel?

Try IV for the reasons above. Is P5 your first Persona game as well? While am glad the negotiations are back in Persona, they are alot harder in other SMT games and it ist just 2 questions. Be mindful of that. IV negotiations are "random" but their personalty are taken into account. Ex. If you are a beta and give everything to female demons, they leave, act like a dick and they join.

Gotta disagree with you there mate. I absolutely hate how you can just select what skills you want to carry over nowadays with basically zero restrictions. It makes these games a hell of a lot easier than they would be otherwise. If you want to reset for a specific skillset for a couple hours be my guest, that's just your OCD. From a gameplay perspective it's good design since it doesn't just let you stack 8 of the best skills on a demon, keeps your power and versatility in check, and encourages variety
>>
>>175323287
Just summon a different demon if you need a different skill?
What really breaks the game in nocturne and SMT4 is the main character having spells.
You can't afford to spend turns changing demons when you have focusing and freikugeling to do.

You don't I think so unless late game vendors or Rags does. Power through man, just use a map to avoid that shit.

They should just mix the affinity thing with the early inheritance thing. Higher inheritance change of a skill = level of affinity with fusion result or average with the fusion materials
Then use the battle plans are more numerous and accessable goods (ie Gems, Macca, drops) to help fusion autism as fusion stock can be customised to create a better demon
Then say you then get a list of skills that the demon can learn via it's affinity (so you get 4 inheritable skills from the fusion and the result has around 5/8 slots filled, you can select what skills to keep and drop out of said pool rather than picking any skill from the fused demons onto the result)
Example, say Agi is learnable with a 0 affinity to fire skills on one demon, but for the result to have a higher chance to put put Agidyne as an inherited skill, the resulting demon would need an affinity of +5, which could be boosted with a battle plan.

From what I've read on various forum posts the script is totally translated but people are having a bitch of a time hacking it into the psp ISO. Two years ago a team said they were trying to get the font right or some shit.

Just started SMTIVA. Which stats to raise?

>>175360553
Interesting. What's the ratio for dumping stats?
>>
>>175360601
3 in the attacking stat, 2 in luck

Well what's the best starting classes for EO1 for your first 5 man party?
I'm just getting my ass kicked by the fucking random encounters.

For DDS1, should I get hunt skills for everyone as soon as possible, or are there hunt skills in every mantra line?
>>
>>175360778
Wrong thread?
Protector, Landsknecht, Medic, Troubadour, Survivalist
Get immunize+salve on medic, bravery + relaxing on troubadour, 5 in ambush and 1 in 1st turn for survivalist
The first stratum is the hardest in the main game

I've heard mixed things about the PSN ports of the PS2 games, mostly that they suffer from a lot of graphical glitches and freezing. How true is this?
>>
>>175361456
If you want to master every mantra then maybe, but if you just want to kill all the bosses then using hunting skills isn't necessary.
>>
>>175362056
pretty true
they've all got their own problems

Been seeing Yokai Watch as of late, and its renewed my interest in demon games, so I went looking and found out there's a new version of SMT4.

I bought it on release, but once I made it to tokyo, some other game came that brought me off it, and I left it there since, is the new game just SMT4 + a few addons, or is it a whole brand new thing? I saw the beginning, and its nothing like it, seems to imply its happening half way SMT4 or even half end of it.
>>
>>175364378
basically an expansion pack, takes place at the end of IV and goes into two extended neutral routes
>>
>>175364378
so like right at the end of the game on neutral that may as well be the end of the game its that close to the end, it splits off to smt:ivA and has its own new story.
I didnt find the story as good but if you liek 4 you will like this since its pretty much the same thing with a new story.
you dont have to play 4 or go neutral route to get the story but id relay recommend it.

whats yoki watch like, isnt it just rock paper scissors like pokemon?

A PS3 RPG where Cozy was the creative lead or something. Cherry picking, basically. People here forget that he was also involved in Jewel Summoner on the PSP, which was one of the most generic and boring games ever.
>>
>>175364945

So SMT4A is just half the game of SMT4 is what I'm understanding, plus some new content.

Is that addition going to make the two games have the same content, or is SMT4A a smaller game?

>whats yoki watch like, isnt it just rock paper scissors like pokemon?

Pretty much, plus a whole lot of touch screen inputs to do special attacks. Your yokais act automatically, you can have three out fighting at once and three in reserve, and they got a meter that fills as they fight, which you can use at full to activate a special ability that is usually a stronger attack, wide attack, or a special effect (buff/debuff). Yokais sometimes curse their enemies or buff themselves with yokai specific abilities, like there's one that makes enemy paranoid and attack his partners.

The game is very simple, its mindless in most sense, thus why I wanna get back into SMT4. I might finish it though, it has a certain charm to it. Recruiting is a pain in the ass, you can only try once per enemy per battle, and its a guess game of what the enemy likes to eat. And even if you get it right, its not guaranteed they will come. Some times you dont even have to feed them, they just straight out ask you to partner up. You can fuse some, some can evolve, but not every one. There is a big variety of yokais though, and the town is a bit full of things to do.

Yokai Watch is a mixed bag. I don't like the amount of recolours and you know you're in trouble when the monster catching in your monster catching game is the MOST FRUSTRATING SHIT ever. It's kinda charming though and I didn't dislike the odd battle system. I've had the second one on my 3DS for ages but I haven't played it yet.

>>175365924
4A obviously reuses several locations, but you could still see it more like an expansion. The story and campaign are completely different and I never felt as if I was having a dejà vu of IV, if that's what is concerning you.

I would indeed say that 4A is smaller and it has some paddling in the endgame as well, but the gameplay improvements make it worth it, especially because it has a better difficulty curve, a better fusion system and it is more challenging overall.

You fucked up, anon. There's no other way of saying it.

Luck is useful to avoid being fucked over by ailments, and if you dump some decent points into it, you will crit and smirk like crazy.

so should I restart my game or should I just continue with my fucked up stats
>>
>>175369687
That's your call.
It's not like you won't be able to beat the game or anything. You just gotta raise that agility and luck, and pay attention to the environment so you can stock on incenses.
>>
>>175369687
You can continue, its not that really that bad and the games not so punishing, even on Apocalypse difficulty.

King Frost is fairly easy. Fuse up an angel or get a spriggan from the area and get magaon. The first really hard boss of the game is yet to come.

He's an arrogant asshole that warms up to the group and realizes what he's fighting for in the end. It's a simple but pleasant character arc.

Looking back on it, the only really badly written character in final is probably nozomi, who has no arc and zero character development whatsoever.

Asking here because the persona general is cancer incarnate, but what do you think about playing through P5 without ever touching any of the social links?
I haven't started it yet but I keep hearing how broken a lot of them are and how easy the game gets, would playing on Hard and just ignoring social links make it more of a good challenge or just make the game awful to play?
