SMT is better in every way including waifufagging since the very first game where the Heroine and Yuriko want your penis up to the last which lets you plunge the world into a sea of primordial chaos for you and your Megami to repopulate and shape as you wish.

That's hilarious. I like 'em both though. Persona for when I want more relaxing gameplay and story focus, SMT for when I want more engaging gameplay.

My kingdom for a Persona with the level of dialog mainline SMT has.

>>742092432
Those people are retards, anon. The Answer is an excellent epilogue.
>>
>>742090551
depends. I think nu-sona is better than SMT4 and 5, though 5 is the peak of combat and team building basically everything else about it is really bad. Classic SMT is top notch dungeon crawling though, and on that front beats out the Nu-sonas, which has pretty lackluster dungeons. Persona 5's palaces are a step in the right direction, though it was also a step in the wrong direction in terms of combat difficulty and balance. 5R and the PS2sona remakes only seem to reinforce it sadly. I won't speak on Metaphor because I have not played it, still don't trust Atlus to not announce a re-release of the game.

modern persona better than post PS2 mainline, but mainline up to PS2 better than modern persona

Yes.
Shit Persona is really just an SMT game with extra steps at the end of the day. Persona 1 and 2 are hard proof of that where the negotiation is fucking agony.

Even just by story telling SMT is less about accepting and more about imposing your will on the world and its a more satisfying and honest narrative overall.

Pic unrelated

>>742093112
>P3 dungeon crawling is pretty bland.
That's one of the reasons The Answer is good. It consolidated all the dungeon crawling, progression and gameplay while also increasing the difficulty notably (except for the final boss who was ridiculously weak for some reason). Not that I would say any of the Megaten games that aren't grid based dungeon crawlers had notably good dungeons in the first place, pretty geometry notwithstanding.

I'm about 7 hours into the game, and holy hell, this might be one of the most boring games I've played in a long time.

I came into this with pretty high expectations. It's an Atlus game, after all, and the Steam reviews are somehow overwhelmingly positive. For context, I've played every Persona game, Tokyo Mirage Session and most of the SMT games on the 3DS, so I'm definitely familiar with Atlus game.

The game starts off strong during the first hour, but once you're transported to the Netherworld, everything starts going downhill. The story? Practically nonexistent. The characters? There are barely any. The side quests? Some of the most boring I've ever seen, just your standard MMO-style fetch quests.

Most people seem to agree that the story isn't the game's strongest point, but they usually say the gameplay makes up for it. Unfortunately, I don't feel that way at all. Even the gameplay feels repetitive and boring. I'm genuinely struggling to find anything positive to say about it.

At this point, it feels like I'm wasting my time. I keep waiting for something interesting to happen, but nothing ever does.

I can't describe, there's just something off with that game. SH1 is easy, probably the easiest SMT game I played, but I absoulutely loved its setting. SJ just felt...bland. Not really related, but I kinda feel the same for Code Veronica, which is my most disliked RE game.
(Just call me a contrarian with no taste and let's move on. You'd save us lot of time.)
Not really related no2, but I'd like to take this opportunity to thank that one anon - assuming he's here - who recommended me The Lost Child few years ago. Yes, it felt more like SH2 than the actual SH2 that we got.

At its heights, yes. 3, 4, and Strange Journey surpass Persona in basically every regard except OST (but 4's OST slaps) . Narratively, Digital Devil Saga and Devil Survivor are also pretty interesting. Persona 2 duology is worthy of standing alongside the best of SMT narratively, and 3 FES's main story is the right balance of fair yet still challenging.
I think Persona has ruined mainline SMT though because Atlus thinks it can't put a substantial plot in SMT games after the mixed reaction to 4Apoc and #FE. They seem to think a plot-focused SMT game might confuse the consumerbase now that Persona is casual.

I wish Soul Hackers 2 were released on Switch. I think it would be more enjoyable as a handheld game.

>>742090551
Yes but Nocturne is an overrated brown dogshit for posers.
>>
>>742090551
Depends what you are in for, especially these days where Persona gone all in on the 3 formula. I think i prefer SMT personally because it gets more out there and shows how people can have good intentions but get twisted by ideology and biases to a point friends and coworkers start killing eachother without more then a passing thought, but i can understand why people like Persona.

The same goes for gameplay systems and shit, like im not too bothered by RNG Inheriting these days cause i see it as a choice to be made "Do i reroll for the perfect demon that i will replace eventually anyway, or will i settle for this one that got everything but one thing right?" It gives friction. But it isn't like there is that much difference these days with Manual inheirtence and stuff like the Skillcards/Forma/Essence systems.

Dungeons and bosses are also a game to game thing.

I can say this at least, i get more of a itch to replay VV then i get P5R.

>>742101471
Most SMT games are 50+ hours long, which means I usually will play them in 10 hour bursts with a year inbetween because my brain is dopamine slagged. It makes it a real bitch and a half to return to an SMT game because I have to reacquaint myself with the demons I'm using and figure out what needs replacing. It's my fault, but also a pain in the dick in the same way as getting back on the horse after not going to the gym is. Persona is a bit easier since your demon slots are more limited.

SMT3 is either the absolute best one, or the absolute worst one depending on who you ask. Personally, I think it's one of the best ones but I don't care much for story and prefer atmosphere and interpretation.

DDS > DDS2 > Nocturne > P5 > P4 > SJ > SMTIV > P3 > SMTV

But even SMTV is like an 8/10 and P3, depending on the version you play, a 8-10/10 game. No reason to hate one subseries and fanboy over another, just play them all.

They're pretty similar, and people tend to vastly overstate the differences in gameplay/complexity and difficulty between the two. The Persona games just spend a lot more time on the plot and characters, while the SMT games generally keep the focus on dungeon crawling.

>>742092432
The Answer gets a lot more hate than it deserves. The plot is largely pointless, but it's a lot of fun to play through.

>>742096127
I like the atmosphere, and they have some cool ideas, but they're kind of tedious to actually play through. I still like them more than Nocturne, though, which is my least favorite entry in the series out of those I've played.

I meant SMT3: Nocturne.

Though, P3 is really easy, you just do the tower on the first day that makes sense to (usually a non-soul link day is best). I'm not sure if the tower is bugged or I just got lucky on my playthrough, but the staircases were always super close together so I could do the tower without much hassle.

Persona is much more character driven, so in that regard it can be considered better than SMT. In terms of themes, both have equal potential to be interesting, with Persona delving into Jungian psychology and SMT focusing more on mythology/the occult and apocalyptic scenarios. The turn based gameplay is about equal, I prefer press turn to the one more system, but they're very similar. Persona's calendar system and social sim elements make it much more story driven than SMT, and it generally has better writing, but SMT can be more interesting, especially the older titles.

Never played persona but i have 200 hours of SMTVV in the PC version and about that in the first Switch version. So it's an amazing game that warrants a play. Might be my all-time favorite JRPG
>>
>>742096282
Considering you actually enjoy the SMT games you clearly appreciate good gameplay and dungeon crawling so how could you rate Persona 3 and 4 so much higher than 5 even though they have really terrible randomly generated dungeons? I know 5 is a lot easier but just having crafted dungeons and actually good enemy designs makes it so much better
Also why is Strange Journey so low
>>
>>742114887
Yeah I have the same opinion about Persona 5, despite it being piss easy I much prefer detailed dungeons, demons as enemies (instead of random blobs and cubes), and actual demon negotiation

Yoko doesn't come off as an entitled bitch in the same way Chiaki does.
Also (and possible more importantly) she's your party member for like ~70% of the CoV playthrough. And I think people always go easier on party members compared to NPCs.

Persona Q is a blobber, it’s Etrian Odyssey with a Persona skin
Also the rest of the SMT series still has the identity of a blobber even though they became third person with free movement

Its hard to cheer on SMT for waifu stuff when the "characters" are absent for 90% of the story before going off the rails for ther alignment philosophy so you kill them.
Also the Qaiditsu or whatever they're called give off vibes of those boxart Pokemon that do nothing until you catch and box them for the rest of the playthrough. The only one I used was the green one but none of them stay viable into the endgame

I wouldn't really say Yoko is THAT glazed, the main deal she is a factor in that throws things into Disarray (Chaos), while she is edgy her conversation has a positive effect on Tao who was too Stagnant, but by the time THE BETRAYAL is upcoming Tao just kinda smile and "agree to disagree, but i appreciate your perspective." when she starts her rants.

Chiaki is a bit different, she is someone "strong" (Beautiful and popular girl in school), who gets thrown into a hellscape and realizes how weak she truly is, she then pursues strength to protect herself, and what people like to overlook, FAILS, she was already maimed with a broken arm when she did her fusion, the demon she had fused with had similarly been defeated. Everything around her is a hypocrisy where she should known better. Until the end, where she admits there is only room for one "Strongest" and that she never actually was strong and accepts her defeat when Demifiend beats her.

>>742116827
Pretty much any Demon can be viable for the Endgame for VV if you have enough AUTISM though, Essences, Mantras and Incenses get practically shat out in it. They won't be as broken but definitely "viable". Even outside of VV, i have a tradition to bring Ose to endgame if i can regardless of the level he is in that game.

The issue with the Quadistu is at worst that they overlap slightly and if you want their team attack that's a lot of Party Slots taken.

her divine spell is great if you make her stats in the category

>>742117472
I actually quite liked the endgame cutscenes where Yoko and Tao are genuinely having a heart to heart whilst debating their alignment philosophies. Unfortunately Yoko kind of comes across like an autistic retard for most of the game and her goal of destroying and remaking the world feels super extreme and murderhobo like when the alternative is Tao's "just be a good goddess to people" which is very chill for the average lawfag

SJ is heavily carried by the forboding vibes and how uncomfortable the zones are. I will say that I think it has some of the better alignmenta too.
Neutral, especially in redux if you say fuck you to Alex, is the most genuine "pro-humanity" neutral path in the whole series. Being able to say that you have faith in humanity fixing their ways when you can see how fucked up the world is and when even a time traveler tells you nothing will change is undeniably based.
The law path is overbearing and yet truly peaceful which is always nice.
And the chaos path, this time in the redux one, fixes one of the larger issues of Chaos which is you've just played a whole game seeing how much demons hate and abuse humans and yet in Chaos you throw humans in at the deep end regardless, by instead levelling the playing field and giving humans a fighting chance to survive in your new world.

I like when the neutral path actually has dialogue choices for it instead of having to balance choices like SMT4 so you meet the invisible points criteria (and can still fail because if your score is 0 you don't get neutral, aka you were TOO neutral)

You see regular SMTV as a 9/10? I liked the game but there are way too many flaws for me to rate it that high. Story is very poorly told and uninteresting, the characters suck, dungeons suck, the environments are overly samey, dampeners are OP, etc.

I think the most evil you could get is probably DeSu1 Overlord route? (It is sorta a dumb choice though)
SMT4A Anarchy Route is whatever though (I don't think it's really that evil and you could technically go into it with good intentions)

I mean most Chaos routes are WOOHOO STRONG LIVES but I don't think that's really THAT evil especially when the other side is WOOHOOO EVERYONE JUST SITS AROUND AND PRAISES GOD 24/7.

DeSu1 is about you getting stuck in Tokyo (literally like they locked you the fuckdown) and it's all about surviving the 7 days while in a battle royale to become king of the Bel's. One of the endings has you team up with your cousin to punch God in the face. In that ending there's a sub choice where it's either you kill anyone who goes against you or you convince them to stop fighting. In the good route, everyone cheers you on as you go to punch God in the face. In the bad route, everyone's fucking so scared of you that the world becomes peaceful as you become the world's dictator (which I guess isn't as evil as I thought...)

That's some shit underage newfags parade around to try and fit in. Persona 3 wasn't much of a departure from 2 or SMT. 4 was a bit bright and happy but that fits the tone the game was aiming for. P5 has plenty of SMT-isms and even goes back to demon negotiation that 3 and 4 lacked.
Anyone trying to create a divide like this or giving away a game series to "the scawy weddit peopow" needs to shut the fuck up permanently.
Persona aims at different things than SMT.
So does Raidou.
So does Digital Devil Saga.
So does Metaphor.
Grow the hell up, acting like an actual child while still shitting on reddit just makes them look better than you. And no, accusing me of using reddit isn't going to work. I've never touched the place. I'm just stick of people being proud of their childishness here.

I think that even then, Matador isn't hard, you just have to use buffs and debuffs. The superbosses of the base Nocturne are the Four Heavenly Kings, with Bishamonten as the leader, and the strategy to beat him is to max your buffs (minus 1) so that the AI never uses Dekaja, then you can just wail on him.

I was so strong in the normal story that when I fought Kagutsuchi, I spent the whole time buffing, returned all my demons to the party, and then proceeded to use regular punches to do the entire fight.

Persona 3 is babbys first psychological game it isn’t that dark at all
Persona 2 isn’t even that dark, maybe EP is a bit with the more adult cast but IS is for the most part pretty lighthearted, especially since two of your party members spends 95% of the game being comic relief
Also notice I didn’t shit on either game series, or reddit? I pointed out there used to be less of an overlap because they in general go for different audiences but that’s it, sounds like you’re the one looking to make a divide from nothing by accusing people of starting series wars
I didn’t even say which franchise I preferred
Obviously every game in the overall umbrella goes for different things but it’s more about tone, but yeah even though Raidou is closer to tone to SMT than Persona, if someone doesn’t like action RPGs it doesn’t matter how big an SMT fan they are, they’re not gonna play it

>Don't people just meme on Yoko cause it is funny?
Did you pay attention to her? She's a pointless contrarian.

The context for the scene in pic related is a vampire is going around killing and sucking the blood of humans so demons can get high. The demons aren't fighting for their lives, they don't need the blood to live, they just want to get drunk on human suffering.
And Yoko says some dumb fucking shit like "you can't label that as evil" - it is the VERY DEFINITION OF EVIL.

So a game needs to be a deep and dark psychological game to impress you. I'm already disappointed in you and didn't read the rest of your post.
You are the childish, dismissive retard I'm talking about. You don't get to act superior.

this is even remotely as bad as it used to be, this style of poster is basically the japanese soldier who never stopped fighting, a complete retard who doesnt even realize he already lost years ago

>Did you pay attention to her? She's a pointless contrarian.
That's what makes her funny though. Plus that was the last possible sidequest before you lose her and Tao, wasn't it? The one where Tao basically doesn't take her contrarian shit seriously anymore.

Once again, I never said that. You’re pulling words out of thin air again
Am I not allowed to like games aimed as an entry level darker RPG for teenagers especially if I played it as a teen?
Btw I never said SMT was dark i said ‘edgy’
Stop making yourself look retarded, you’re digging a hole

>You’re pulling words out of thin air again
You said "it isn't that dark at all" like it's relevant. If you're going to communicate entirely through suggestion or implication, you're a coward. You're also the type of person to claim one thing is "4chan" or "reddit" so I shouldn't be surprised.

I've only played persona 3 and SMT DDS 1 and 2. The dungeon crawling in DDS 1 and 2 were miles better than in Persona 3. However, the visual novel elements in Persona 3 were pretty good.

So you don’t think something can be popular in one community and relatively unknown in the other? Do you think BookTok and /lit/ share the taste in reading?
>>
Play persona 3 and 4.
Its okay. I think to myself "THIS? is what everyone shits their pants over?"
Finally get smt on steam
Its the most purest kino ever one of my fav games ever made

My point is you shouldn't give a fuck. Stop being a slave.
For a person who plays games that lets you consider different points of view, you sure like your fuckin tribalism.

Thank you.
I managed to make the console appear but the command does nothing.
I tried
HighResShot 2 filename=C:\Users\User\Desktop\Mermaid.png
and
HighResShot 7680x4320 filename=C:\Users\User\Desktop\Mermaid.png
But neither work sadly...
All I get is a slowdown of my computer and then nothing.

i def prefer smt to persona. i do think smt 4 is alot better than 5 though, might be biased cause it was my first atlas game but its very innovative and different. the whole setting in 4 is very creative, while 5 is fun but not as unique imo. I was 30+ when i tried persona 4/5 and while the music is amazing, its really hard for me not to cringe at teenage issues and trying to immerse myself in asian high school life. had to quit 4+5 at like 10h in cause it felt like a vn for ... teens obviously. might give the games another try, but smt definitely feels like the "adult" persona.

Doi does good designs, he just lacks that "weird" touch that Kaneko has.

>>742128398
Doi sucks ass and his designs are gacha tier

You havent played a gacha if you really think this.

Don’t think you need to actually play a gacha to know most of them are coombait

Holy shit. This.
I was so into the game and setting and then finding out that the apocalypse was all a weird lucid dream and everyone was living in a cartoonishly bad written fake city was such a downer I dropped the game for months.

I did mainline in order and 3 is still peak because it's the perfect SMT game in all aspects. If 2 (ps1) was translated then it would be close between the two.

It bugs me so much.
It's like there was room for them to become kino characters, but just when you begin to reach that mark, the game goes into SMT kill your friends mode and you are suddenly forced to pull a 180 out of nowhere on whether you want to keep your companions because they're dead set on becoming gay hippies, or kill them all without a single one of them willing to hear you out.
>>
>>742129092
I can agree to that, its not like he cant do non humanoids, i really like the hydra and hayatarou, but he does seem to focus on more humanoids than anything else, either for marketability or just because monsters are harder to design.

>>742128731
Problem with gatcha designs is not that they are sexy, its that they are really boring and bland. Doi can be a bit boring (like i said he lacks that Kaneko weirdness) but he isnt bland.
>>
>>742119143
You can't really be evil in VV. I mean you can be a dick, obviously, but law and chaos is generally just potentially extreme stances to trying to save the world and the game the game tries to make all the endings reasonably good endings.
>>
>>742123979
It's a cool powertrip and a breath of fresh air in a medium where you are mostly all about power of friendship, save the world, uwu. And the edgelord endings are blatantly flagged as bad endings.
But tbqh, the neutral ending is the best end for that game, since everyone sucks and the whole premise of the routes is based on wishful thinking from people who can't be bothered to sell you on their ideals.
>>
I totally agree that Doi isn't Kaneko, and that Kaneko fans should immediately stop playing newer games and leave the fandom completely in retaliation. That will show them.

For this to be gacha tier it needs 8 more chains, some random belts and pouches, 5 different halos, 4 more wings, a few random animals, a random mechanical part or maybe something like a boxing glove, a neon tail, and hmm... the eyepatch should be glowing. Also give her a skirt or spats so you can add lots of random runes and lines on them and never explain what it means.
