which one should I get?
SMT3
bump
SMT5 isn't a demake, take that as you will.
Both
>>719756537smt v for funp5 to cure loneliness
>>719756537SMTVV >>>>>>>>>>>>>> P5R.
SMT V
>>719756537Most people will enjoy P5R more.
>>719756859How is royal a demake?I beat the original game and was thinking about trying it out.
>>719756537>he didn't get the humble choice with persona 5 and 7 other games for $15It literally ended yesterday
emulate 4 and 4a instead
>>719756537SMT V is better. I recommend that one.
>>719757179“Most people” are fucking stupid.
>>719756537>Dating sim without sexlolSMTV, easy pick
>>719756537>SMTroons seething hard ITT
>>719756718fpbp
>>719756537as a mega smtfaggot I prefered royal. whilst Vengeance fixed a lot of what base V sucked dick on It just wasn't that enjoyable outside of a couple improved characters. still salty about there not being any fucking decent dungeons but yeah, thought royal is the better experience
>>719756537The one that has an actual true love story in it. Nothing in P5 is genuinely romantic at all. Just fan service to sell the game.
>>719759796Nu-smt is shit overall, hardly matters really. I'm playing devil survivor right now and the combat and team building completely mogs the braindead gameplay in both of these.
>>719761012Based.
>>719756537Royal > Metaphor > SMT 5 V
>>719756537
both god tier games you can't go wrong with but P5R wins quite easily
>>719756537P5R will last longer and has a better story, SMTVV is a much much better jrpg. Both games have great OSTs.
SMTV will let you play the game from time to time
>>719756537If you are asking you must be a normie just get ZOOMERsona 5
>>719756537I like SMT VV, but it can get too hardcore for normalfags, it's like pokemon but hard
>>719757234It's not. That Anon is retarded.
>>719756537vengence. I have a platinum trophy for (5) not royale. I watched my roomate play royal way back when. It's good but Vengence has better JRPG gameplay.
>>719761769I don't want to finish post game for eo1...
>>719756537As someone who played Persona 5 Royal twice and SMTV:V 3 times. I say:SMTV:V >Persona 3:R> Metaphor >>>Persona 5 Royale
>>719756537SMT if you're not a teenage girl
>>719756537SMT if you love teenage girls
picrel
>>719764602Pretty sure they would have to go with P5 if they want more teenage girl goon bait.
>>719764602
>>719761621Absolutely secondary
>>719764831Who's the cute girl sitting there? Yuri?
>>719764524I 100% agree with this ranking Needs like 10 more arrows between smtvv and p3r thoughbeit
>>719764864Her name is Young Man
>>719764675Yeah but p5r girls are not interesting, deep or complex in the slightest
>>719756718FPBP and also SMT VV do the new Vengeance arc implemented in the game.
>>719756537if you like shit you get persona 5, otherwise, if you like shit, you get smt 5>>719756718fpbp
>>719756537P5R was just on humblebundle for 14$
SMT5 is 100% gameplay. P5 is 1% gameplay. Both games are the same length.
>>719756537I really enjoyed persona 5. Glad it has actual dungeons instead of the slop in 3 and 4. SMT 5 I only played the original route last year, planning to do the vengeance stuff this year. SMT 5 has better gameplay and less filler shit. I'd say Persona 5 had better highs but the filler shit really brings it down while smt 5 besides the anzus was fun the whole way. If vengeance is as good as people say I'll probably like it more than persona 5. Another thing is I played persona 5 three years ago or so and smt 5 1 year ago, and I'm much more in the mood to replay smt 5 while, persona 5, I can't see myself playing for a long ass time but it is a really long game that will last you a long time.
>>719756537If you do get P5 Royal you need to acknowledge that the original vanilla ending is infinitely better than the new royal ending. Other than that though enjoy the game anon
>>719762595How is that Anon retarded?I beat the original anon was thinking about fucking the one you're replying to.
>>719764954>spoken forSkipping V then.
Is this version of SMT worth playing if I already did 100% in the original when it came out? It wasn't that good but it was alright
persona 5 has real dungeons and story
>>719765351You might feel burn out because VV is very similar, especially from the start. You do get Yoko, the demon haunt, and some new quests tossed at you but it really feels like the same game until at least after Lahmu. Unless you really enjoyed the game and wouldn't mind a replay, VV is basically that. A replay with some added bonuses.
>>719765351It makes an 8.5/10 into a legit 10/10
>>719765351>It wasn't that good but it was alrightProbably not if that's how you feel about it. It's 90% the same.
>>719756537just kys it's the better game for you.
>>719756537SMTV EZ, no life-sim bullshit just edgy pokemon and QT3.14 boys.

>>719765943You forget how everyone in his class is like a brain dead zombie. More than half of everyone there is asleep. Also the MC is one of the school losers.
>>719762042fucking pokemon has better animation than this wtf
>>719766049He's not Mitsuo Kubo broHe has a decent friend group without being the protag ego boosting harem
>>719766157His alter ego only gets a friend group in the new law end. You start the game with everyone in school telling you to fuck off when you needed to walk home with someone.
>>719756718>smt3 hd pc port that stutters every time an encounter is skipped via estomaIt honestly wouldn’t be that bad if there was a mod that allows you to customize your difficulty so you can play on normal or hard but have the encounter rate of easy.Alternatively you can download an earlier version of the game that doesn’t stutter with estoma, but now it stutters when you debuff an enemy, which happens more often than encounters would be skipped
>>719766050>fucking pokemon has better animation than this
>>719766267I'll just play the PS2 release and not deal with any of that bullshit.
>>719756537None, JRPGs are poorly designed in principle, their difficulty is entirely based on wasting your time.Aesthetically these are great but their menu shuffling nature barely qualify as gameplay.
>>719764831Tardwife
>>719766345That would be for the best. The HD port even has denuvo. I would guess the source of the stutters is there.

DO you really need to ask nigga?
>>719764954KYS dubtard
Royal has more improvements from P5 than SMT VV does from SMT V. I like both, but Royal is a better game and probably easier to get through. SMT VV COV is an improvement and has better combat than basically any SMT or Persona game, but exploration still sucks, story is still aimless, characters are improved, but still kind of boring. IV and 3 did the setting a lot better and it feels like this game tries to call back to 3 the wrong way. Royal simply does more and for most part, it's an easier hang. I'd eventually play SMT VV when you can, but if you had to pick one, it's Royal.
>>719766781It is in my heart and my cawk
>>719766924>storyfag>smtvv has the best gameplay in the series but somehow isn't the best game in the seriesReddit is down the hall to the left
>>719766924the only people that enjoy P5 are mentally and emotionally stunted. it's a game for people that never had friends or women interested in them or did anything dangerous as a teenager. it's a simulator for living the life you never had the chance to.
>>719767113This and for depressed middle-aged salarimen in Japan to reminisce over the glory days as they knew the second they graduated HS their life was over
>>719767113Perfect for the internet-raised generations after millennials!
Stop saying V has a bad story. I especially don't want to hear P5 fags say that.
>>719767352Story is fine and minimal story is optimal in vidya anyway to justify vidya's strength as a medium- FUCKING GAMEPLAYHaven't played 4/4a yet so curious to see if the supposedly "amazing" story lives up to hype or just 3ds tendies living up to based Quentin's opinion of them
>>719767113Delete this RIGHT NOW.
>>719766617I'll take generic dungeons over no dungeons.
>>719767686>QuentinOkay ignoring that, the story in 4 was okay and 4 apocalypse fixed a lot of the stupid shit and plotholes. The story in 4A is unironically great, especially if you do the dlc super boss.

>>719768515That's really the argument you're going for?

>>719769283It's only boring if it uses personas' shitty watered down press turn.>social simChoosing which conversation cutscene to watch when isn't interesting nor engaging. Especially if I don't care about the flat tropey characters
>>719769161Post pic of Aogami stating Objectively romantic intentions >inb4 "it's implied"Irl gays will also claim that there's "implications" where there are none to justify immoral sexual practice >inb4 muh amanozako It's hetero, so acceptable and outright stated. Mentally ill homo ships are not, hence no outright statement in the game as it's complete fag head canon because the mc has some Saint Seiya design inspirations that went over fag's heads.Aogami is a concerned brother/dad archetype and nothing more.
>>719756537If you like gameplay and are autistic about party builds then smt vIf you’re a storyfag then p5rI would get both personally as gameplay-wise they are both good smtv is just better.I wouldn’t listen to the opinion of any persona fan if you are a gameplayfag because they are legitimately illiterate and I say this as someone who likes persona games. It is literally impossible to discuss gameplay of a persona game without bumping into people that don’t read skill descriptions at all.
>>719769283Holy fucking plebJust stick to VNs bro
>>719769441Also Aogami is a fucking robot.
>>719756537Both.
>>719769478ThisSmt->use buffs retard Purse owner >retard
>>719769441>has to immediately write off Amanozako's quest like it isn't plainly stated>insists it's a vague implication when it's notYou're delusional. Also there is a new quest in CoV with Kushinada where she says she also loves a proto-fiend directly to the MC face. And the devs said themselves the only father like archetype to the MC in the game is Koshimizu. Aogami is not. You can't even make guesses correctly.
>>719769161>>719769108It's still so obvious what you're fetishizing. Don't even play dumb.
>>719756537Both games are great but I like SMTVV better.
>>719769652I didn't write off Amanozako, I said it's plainly stated, because it's hetero and normal.Given the ages and production order of Aogami and Tsukiyomo, then Aogami is a big brother archetype being only 2-3 years older than protag.Still can't find a screen shot of Aogami being as overt as Amanozako though can you?
>>719769817>everything is pedophilia

>>719769924Portable gaming is gay.
>>719770094Yeah you're right but with a hacked 3ds you don't have to pay for anything.Or just emulate.
>>719764647UNFATHOMABLY BASED
>>719761769The interface looks horrible. I’m fine playing the games on my modded 3ds.
>>719770164This but 'eck
>>719756718This.Play SMT3, then 5.Then play Persona 3, then 4 and 5.Then play Raidou Remastered.Then play all the others.
>>719762042I love the animations in 5 but they feel like they should be rare, super powerful attacks from charging the magatsuhi gauge or something. They're too long so I wind up skipping them most of the time because seeing them 20 times per boss fight is a bit much.3's unique animations were perfect. Flashy and short.
>>719764524Objectively I agree with this, but I'd personally put SMT3 above SMT5, and Persona 3R above SMT5 as well just because of personal taste.But still good taste.
>>719769914Atlus fans are.
>>719769909>given ages and productionWhat the fuck are you talking about, and how does that matter when you're talking about a figurative father, not a literal one?>it needs to be overtAmanozako called them soulmates. Aogami says shit like this multiple times which is even more intense then just saying soulmate and it means the same thing.>hetero and normalShe said her feelings come from Aogami word for word in the quest because she is Aogami. Amanozako in her mythology is Susano-o's emotions. Aogami is Susano-o. This is the most simplistic fucking thing to understand. And people keep fucking pretending like it's "vague". It's not at all.
>>719770328>not yelling out "ARAMASA" or "HAAAAAAAH MURAKUMO" every time and watching the entire animation every timeSorry broYou have terminal NGMI with a textbook case of SUGMA
>>719770236Based. I played through most of the smt catalog on my 'eck
>>719769478I like Persona 5's gameplay but hardly anything in the game necessitates using technical hits like nuke on burned enemies or psi on confused ones, which do MASSIVE damage that you will never ever need.
>>719756537man i got p5r in the humble choice last month and no one told me this was a visual novel. I'm 50 hours in and 99% of """gameplay""" is just pressing A to advance the text. The dungeon crawling and combat is literally 1% of the game.
>>719770525Sadly Aramasa falls off hard. I still use it occasionally in Godborne but just recently replaced it with Figment slash to have a quicker yet still nice looking attack.Murakumo is awesome but slightly too long. Like my dick.And these two's unique attacks take an hour each holy FUCK
>>719764976>implying they are in SMTVthe characters in V are some of the worst, the fucking demon girls have more personality but they ain't highschool girls
>>719770449Imagine being pro-fagCouldn't be me
>>719770624Agreed on aramasa but it's fucking goated until you get wrath tempestEspecially for phys resist enemies
>>719770639Comparatively they absolutely areThey're not Tolstoy characters but still, p5 characters are just cardboard cut outs
depends what you care more about smt is more about raising demons and less about the gay story, it's still there mind you
>>719770746OH FUCK I'M THINKING OF SAKANAGII SHAMBLES RN
>>719770690Did you play IVA?Did you play P2?There has always been fag shit in SMT. I just don't want people to tell me it doesn't exist. V is gay as hell and I know these retards argue that it's "vague" because they don't want to realize the demon coom game they enjoyed actually had fag shit in it.
>calling Persona 5 gay when SMT V has literal blatant romance between these twowhy the denial?
>>719770847Oh yeah Sakanagi is great.It's funny that it's just as strong as the endgame Freikugel at a third of the cost.
>goku and vegeta are gay for fusing to become stronger >goten and trunks are gay for fusing to become stronger, especially because I'm attracted to children LolLmao even
>>719771028Shit had no ideaMight try to keep it equipped longer next playthroughThanks anon
Your reward for defeating the most grueling, annoying fucking battle ever made is the opportunity to fuse me!And my incredibly underwhelming attack that's basically never good.
>female characters are overtly sexual >male characters are not>somehow male characters are gay
>>719771217>Satan is a giant bloviating faggotWho could've guessed?
>>719771258SMT5 is gay because it has a half naked woman spreading her ass cheeks for an attack, gross.
>>719770858I don't remember anything gay in 4F.
>he fell for DEI brainwashing and now projects it on to hetero vidya
>>719771341You can choose to have one of the male cast be your eternal consort mpreg factory in the massacre route.
>still no screencap of Aogami expressing anything remotely homo
>having a meltdown now because it's not offical enough>spamming the thread
>>719771376That doesn't really count.
>>719769652>>719770946>And the devs said themselves the only father like archetype to the MC in the game is Koshimizu. Aogami is not.So your fetish is a boy getting diddled by his dad?
>>719771471How? Toki went insane because she was possessed and wanted that role so badly she was screaming about giving birth and being impregnated by Nanashi forever. You can give that role to any guy you traveled with and impregnate them over and over. Because it's mpreg it's not gay?
>>719771483It's how they reproduce It's that anons origin story
>>719771258Guys have weird criteria for what's gay or straight. They might have even gotten stricter about it. Apparently only adult men are straight.
>>719756718Nocturne doesn't hold up as well as fans of it think it does.
>>719771054The gay fantasy version is actually Vegeta fusing with Trunks.
>>719771548Toki doesn't do that when she becomes the Goddess. She's stripped of all personality just like everyone else.
>>719771394It's mild fujobaiting at best, they did the same with Joker and Akechi in Royal
>>719771258No canon relationship in smt has ever been overtly sexual. IVA came close but Nanashi never decided between Asahi and Toki and those were the only two that showed interest in him so he didn't end up with anyone in the good end. In the bad end he can fuck anyone.
>>719771697Now this is delusional. There isn't even fujo baiting in P5.>they went to a bathhouseAll Japanese men go to bath houses, jesus christ.
>>719756537>He didn't grab P5R while it was $12 in last month's humble choiceKind of a major L buddy. I'd recommend both because they're vastly different experiences but both very enjoyable experiences. If you prefer heavy dialogue, time management, and easier gameplay, go with P5R. If you prefer less dialogue, big and open maps to explore, and more intense gameplay, pick SMTV. Simple as that really.
>>719756537Persona 3 Reload or Persona 4 instead.
>>719771784Oh sorry, I forgot choice is $15 these days. Still, that bundle had some solid games.
I like fusing.
>>719771706Was referring to Cleos and Namaahs unique attacks
>>719771835I hate nu-fusion so much.
>>719771873But you were referencing Aogami and the MC right? There is nothing gay because it's not overt enough for you. In SMT1 the MC and the heroine talk significantly less to each other than the MC and Aogami do in V and yet they do the exact same things. Same vow to protect each other and support each other's choices no matter what. They still run to each other's rescue and sacrifice themselves for each other. They're even called two halves of the same soul. No one has ever debated they aren't a couple despite barely speaking to each other all game. The denial is laughable.
>>719756537They are essentially the same game
>>719772148I can tell you've never played SMT1.
>>719772215I have played it twice.
>>719772235Then why would you say something stupid like>They still run to each other's rescue and sacrifice themselves for each other. It literally never happens.
>>719756537SMT V is honestly amazing. So SMT V
>>719772558The heroine sacrifices herself for him when the ICBMs hit, and he runs to her rescue multiple times. Aogami runs to the MC's rescue multiple times and also sacrifices himself. That was my only point. Anyone who played the game would understand what's what I mean. They want to protect each other and are willing to sacrifice themselves for each other as well. It's the same dynamic. In V you're just the one being rescued and protected and not the other way around.
>>719769878Very nice.
>>719772725Not how it happens, and it's just a dumb contrived way to kick her out of the party for a while.Every time she gets rescued it's at the behest of another party. Hell even the dialog you posted earlier is from the Soul Diver who asks you to rescue her. It's not something the MC proactively does of his own accord.
>>719772148Because hetero affection is normal and why literally everyone existsHomo shit has to be projected where it doesn't exist to propogate otherwise homos would die out after 1 generation Other than square and capcom who chase western trends DEI brainwashing hasn't taken root in Japanese games unless you project it on to it.Unless you unironically think Kanji is gay and Naoto is trans too, which wouldn't surprise me
>>719769368>>719769484Cope with your muh elitism the other 2 sell better cause most customers agree with me, SMT isnt bad it's just not as good as Persona
>>719772725Neither are overtly romantic You're not really making a point hereCloud and Tifa have sexSquall and Rinoa kissTidus says I love you to Yuna
>>719756537Your age, ethnicity, and amount of games you've played will determine the answerIf 22 and under, brown or SEA, and played 200 or less games in your life then P5RIf none of the above, then SMTVV
>>719773034>her sacrificing herself is dumb and contrivedWhat?>Every time she gets rescued it's at the behest of another partyThe beginning of the game is the first time you rescue her retard, in the dream sequence and you choose to do that. You continue to do it because of that dream. It's also the only reason to talk to the chaos hero and law hero at all, otherwise you would have ignored them.

>>719773218>Homo shit has to be projected where it doesn't exist>man and woman do the same things man and man do>uhhh the man and woman are fucking, but the other is projection because uhhhhh>normalcy SMT has never been about normalcy to begin with.
>>719773280I'm all of these and played both already.
>>719773313You mean the dream where you can refuse to save her?lol
>>719773276And in a quest Kushinada says the MC is in love with the same person she used to be in love with in V but people are still bitching it's not overt enough. Any time someone brings up this line, they say it can't be true because the MC never does anything to act like he's in love with his partner. But he actively tries to move closer to him on the bench through the game and goes into a schizo revenge spiral when he dies so much so demons in the haunt will say he's overly emotional and on a blood lust spree. No matter how many examples there are and how plainly it's stated in game retards will claim it's not overt enough. I know it's shit posting but jesus christ.
>>719773495Smt has never had a scene like any of these 3 examples >>719773276
>>719773358Persona and Metaphor have better everything specially pacing while SMT gets exhausting since it's the same activity over and over agaisn

>>719773658>game forces you to save her anyway by calling out her nameYes. Just like you can't side with Lilith even though you get to choose technically.
>>719773845>Same activity over and over again Which is what social links are, without any challenge whatsoever Perfect for someone like you
>>719773896Calling out a name isn't saving.When prompted to actually save her you can directly refuse.
>Guys have weird criteria for what's gay or straight. They might have even gotten stricter about it.Apparently only adult men are straight.
>>719771376>not turning the blonde milf into your concubineCouldn’t be me
>>719773845Post an SMT mainline game clear, sisterHell, post a purse owner clear lol
>>719773934>Calling out a name isn't saving.That is how you rescue her and stop the sacrifice. She says it right in the cutscene>Call out my name to save me>type out name>I knew you would rescue me!Are you stupid?
>>719773845persona is a bunch of gay shit on top of the SMT battle system, SMT is just a fun game where you fight demons. if you don't like the battle system and need a bunch of visual novel tier bullshit without even any h-scenes why are you even playing? SMTV has a more compelling story too that isn't just "a bunch of whacky teenagers save the world with the power of friendship"
>>719772926Here, have something more delicious.
I spent played P3R up until I got Aigis. I do not understand why people like Persona games. The combat was ass and the overall pace of the game was awful. H-games make better use of time management.This comes from the perspective of someone's first Atlus game being SMT IV
>>719774020Despite all this shitThere is nothing that is concrete unlike these 3 games >>719773276or getting married in Dragon Quest Or actual romance routes in purse owner Or even fucking shaking hands with Eupha in Metaphor Homo projectors lost
>>719774020They just forgot to write an alternate dialog if you refuse to save her.Again, you are given the CHOICE to save her and can REFUSE. End of.
>>719756537is smt5s writing any good? are the aesthetics all doom and gloom 24/7 or do you get any comfy reprieve
The point of Aogami fusing with protag is so he wouldn't fucking die like a bitch later it's to become a being so powerful as to rewrite all of existence as is smt tradition Anything else is headcanon
>>719774186The setting and lore are good, but the script is terrible, like most other JRPGs. It's not goofy though as Xenoblade, since it tries to be serious, but the Japs just can not write competent stories. It's probably on par with 4A of being complete ass. The final showdowns are great though (just as in 4A).
>>719774186Demon haunts (think pokemon picnics in recent games) are max comfyArtstyle is varied and colourful with some grimdark
>Doi added seven (7) top tier waifus in vengeance Absolute mad lad
>>719774378I love that she's weak to physical attacks Physical attacks being muh cawk
>>719773890This is the whole cope line. Everyone has dug through this line multiple times to the point of extreme autism and I've seen all the arguments attempting to refute it so I'll run you through the explanation to save you some time:>"I too" has to apply to someone in the quest or in front of her for it to make any sense otherwise the "I too" wouldn't be in the sentence at all>every other demon in the area has a mythological partner and is spoken for and never interacted with Aogami>It obviously does not apply to Tsukuyomi>the MC is the only person there with extended contact with Aogami and was rescued from a snake sacrifice just like Kushinada in her own mythology>demons are always talking directly to you, the protagonist, when you walk up to them to initiate dialog>In the Japanese version she makes it clearer the proto-fiend she's referring to is Susano-o only, aka Aogami, it's not a general statement>the Japanese version of the line is identical to the english one so it's not Atlus West adding in fanfiction gay shit that isn't thereThe line is short and simple to understand when you realize it's just pointing out the clear parallel to Kushinada and the MC. Both are rescued and protected by Susano-o and saved from multi-head snake sacrifices. There is nothing complicated here besides the retards that need to jump into insane over speculation because they would never state something gay this plainly, but they did.
>>719774168>They just forgot to write an alternate dialogAbsolute cope.
>>719765109He's not. That other Anon is retarded.
>>719774470So nothing concrete like ff7,8,9 or x or dragon quest or purse owner Got it
>>719774721>it's never overt enough because gayIt's just shitposting at this point, got it.
>>719774509Oh the irony.This is more for the viewers at home but this will definitively prove you wrong. I know you'll continue to argue like a toddler, so consider this your last (You).
>>719774779>no touching >no kissing >no I love you>no marriage >not even a hugHomo projectors lost
>>719774853>no touching

If you only care about fighting and sexy demons SMT5. If you want some downtime between the fighting persona.
>>719774892>touching to fuse to power up is gay bro
>>719774892just fisting
>>719774794>had to make a webmYou are so fucking stupid. I literally told you he rescues her whether you choose yes or no. You had to make a webm proving my point.
>>719775174That wasn't a fusion scene.
>>719775235More textbook projection, as expected
>>719775301some hot takes coming right up
>>719775281Literally how they fuse. Semantics because can't refute
>>719775415They can fuse without any contact too.
>>719775412>Literally just narcissus is overtly sexual, as is his mythology >like 15 plus female denons are sexual regardless if mythology Hetero chads wonHomo projectors lostAt least you get Narcissus fags
>>719756537persona 4 golden
>>719775443Must be delicious shota thenGot it You mentally ill fag
>>719774114no-one plays persona games for combat lol, those games are all shallow garbage in terms of the dungeon crawling stuffpeople like persona for the lifesim stuff, because devs stopped making tokimemo games 20 years ago
>>719775565>shotaWhere? All the boy demons in V are non-human.
>>719756537vengeance is better than vanilla smtvroyal is worse than vanilla p5
>>719775506We truly won!
>>719774324yeah...I love the aesthetics and find jap game design very charming but why cant they fucking write a story.
>>719775606I'm referring to the dbz gif you daft cunt If they don't need to touch to fuse (apparently) then it must be shota BL, obviously No other explanation Not degenerate at all
>>719775829I never said any of that.
>>719756537If you like Pokemon, get SMTIf you like VN’s, go Persona
>>719775878But touching is objective romance anon
>>719775974can't believe that I am in a relationship with (YOU) right now!
>>719775974That why you need context.
>>719774106P5R has no upskirts which firmly makes SMTVV the better game. I think the OP's decision should be made for him at this point.
>>719774470If this thread lasts another few hours you're going to come back to numerous complaint replies to this post. This stupid line never fails to start shit.Frankly I wish they could just release some damn interviews. One acknowledgement of the line would end any debate. You could just post the quote and be done with it.
>>719776135*mwah* *kisses*:^)
>>719776324Sadly, upskirts in VV are censored by dark void. Can easily be fixed in the PC version or via emulation though. SMTV on original Switch was NOT censored.
>>719776351BRB gonna buy atlus shares to ask about this at the next investor meeting
>>719776426Every SMT has had post release interviews except V. I still don't understand why.
SEX with demon women.
>>719776490Based and procreation pilled Actually can you have kids with a demon as a human in smts universe?
>>719776490Poor little beeno boynot really
>>719776547Given that's the lore for many gods and demons irl already, and humans in this universe shape how demons are manifested, then you just have to believe.
>>719756537if i had to get ONLY 1, I'd get the franchise you like more, if you like school sim stuff more than get person5R, if you like a post apocalyptic setting get smt5v
>>719776547>>719776614Neither of you play enough SMT. Meta humans exist and IVA had a human demon hybrid as one of the main characters.
>>719765351well it has a whole new route, so even if you beat it once you can just start on the 2nd route instead.
>>719776614BRB impregnating Namaah
>>719768007man I like all those big ass areas but those shitty corridors they call dungeons really leaves a bad taste in the mouth
>>719776660I already know that but that doesn't exist in V, and not only that but each game has different rules
>>719776769Good thing they're short and only 3 floors each
>>719773570I still hate you though :D
>>719776770Generally human and demon couples has been a thing since forever. V pushes human and demon couples even harder. Namaah says she has sex with human men to make demon children. The real question though, if knowledge and life pairs have been banging instead of fusing, what do their offspring look like? Was YHVH just diligently killing and separating them before that ever could happen?
>>719776738She's a j*wish who're anon
>>719776863Artemis is still around thoughbeit
>>719776812they're not that short
>>719776962Yeah but Zeus just fucks everything.
>>719777016That's because he's based
>>719777001WutThey're all like 30 mins max
Vengeance was way more fun.
>>719777106if you run past everything
>>719756537I like smt 5 but it can feel really dry playing. It feels almost like you're playing a ps2 game. P5 has stuff going on all the time. I hope in 6 they learn that addition of smart phones and 20 minute texting scenes was awful. At least let me walk around
>>719777186Why wouldn't you?Fight each demon type once to recruit them assuming you haven't fused them alreadyBeat the boss underleveled with you big dick chad strats for the challenge Gg ez
>>719777203>feels almost like you're playing a ps2 game.But that's a good thing zoomerGen 4/5/6 were the peak of vidya

>>719756537VV if you top, P5R if you're bottom (they're both gay)
>>719756537Neither. The series sucks.
>>719756537Vengeance is Atlus's best game.
Did you have a demon in 5 that you dumped every incense into?I'm always ride or die with Black Frost in almost every game hee's in.
>>719756718which version fren, steam or ps2?
>>719774470She's talking to Tsukuyomi. It obviously does apply to Tsukuyomi because it's his quest, the quest to save Amaterasu's remains from Orochi (like Susano'O saved Kushinada-Hime from Orochi). It's about Tsukyomi's grief over the protofiend Amaterasu, which is his motivation in the game, much like Yuzuru Atsuta's motivation is protecting his sister. At the end of the game Tsukuyomi even gives his life to symbolically save what remains of Amaterasu in Tao/Yoko.If you come back to this quest after Tsukuyomi dies with Aogami, Kushinada does not offer the same line and in fact doesn't recognize you at all. This is because she was speaking to Tsukuyomi a person she actually knows. And completing this quest as Aogami Bino, Aogami will thank you for settling things for his brother. Because it's HIS quest.
>>719778938>>719774470Also this differs from other quests where demons are talking to the MC because at the beginning of the quest Tsukuyomi defuses from the MC to talk to the Kunitsukami something that doesn't happen in any other demon quest.
>>719756537P5 can be enjoyed as a standalone, but to properly enjoy SMTV you need to at least play SMTIII before
>>719778547Sakuya, Dagda, Shiva2/3 p2w baby

Redpill me on Godborn mode in vengeance Is it worth a playthrough?What do I need to know/do?
Pic rel if P4R is censored at allAlso dropping it at the first sign of censorship to just replay P4G

>>719756537purse owner fivuh
>>719779784P4G I can't play it. That new character is so fucking annoying and changing the voice actor for Chie really fucks up her character.One of the few times where dubs are better than subs.

>>719756537SMTV if you want a femboy.Persona 5 if you want a cat femboy
I hope Persona 6 is made by the newfag junior developers at fatlusThat way my expectations will be through the floorAnd in the 10% chance it's good, I'll be pleasantly surprised
>>719756537Persona 5 Royal was in Humble Choice last month with 7 other games for a couple of dollarinos. Step up your game bro.
>>719756537A good game instead
>>719756537Persona 5 VV is a tranny slop for contrarians
>>719771761In vanilla P5 there is very mild fujo baiting. But Royal turned it up to 11 making saving Akechi the main motivation of Joker falling into Maruki's trap
>>719756537None.
>>719782717Tell em sister
Is anything censored in p4g compared to ps2 vanilla p4?I don't mean the va changes or the removal of fog or shitI mean like the removal of the tranny at the beach in p3r
>>719785330>muh censorshipgrow up you manchild
>>719782717P5R removed the irl accurate grooming faggots, your game is way more comprised compared to a game with just faggot head canon for representation
>>719785390>It's not okay to depict homosexuality and cross dressing as something to be laughed at and derided Yikes from me
>>719785396>P5R removed the irl accurate grooming faggotsbased, i don't want sodomites in my gamekeep that grooming shit in V it's a game for trannies after all

>>719785730boo hoo Persona 3 Reload removing the tranny abomination from the beach but you culture war niggers call it a demake with DEI censorship you faggots hate censorship more than faggotry, you will gladly wave the rainbow flag if it meant stick it up to the ''evil'' censorship
Both Persona 5 games are faggot enabling dog shit Go get married in another state you two faggots Play Nocturne instead if you're not pozzed
>>719785951>play NocTURD the slop with the homosexual Manikin shopkeeper hitting on Demi-Twink

>>719785897No?P4 and vanilla p5 serve as rare educational exercises in how faggotry operates and should be reacted toTaking out the grooming and Ryuji's reactions but leaving the faggots in is absolutely pro gay
>>719785990Post proofYou won't Meanwhile In p5
>>719785883>>719786127Is this really in the game?Chuds didn't photoshop this?If so not buying
>>719786050>P4you mean the gay slop with the cross dressing ''humilation ritual'' event, the tranny-core event where every male was in love with drag queen Teddy and one NPC says he wouldn't mind ''hitting'' him
>>719786127>Post proofthank you for proving you didn't play Nocturd you poserhttps://megamitensei.fandom.com/wiki/Junk_Shop_Manikinstick to your persona slop
>>719786193The game where trannies are portrayed as disgusting in 3/4 instances and 1/4 that "passes" is played for comedy?Along with all of Yosuke's reactions to potential faggotry in general?Along with based Naoto BTFOing any kind of tranny head canon because she's a Mulan/Joan of Arc not a fucking Ellen Page abomination and also shows them how to detransistion by dressing feminine in her SL and the true ending?Yep, that game
>>719756537persona 5 *10000000, better music/game/story/experienceand play with JP audio or you dont get Lelouch as the MC
>>719786250>Despite these affectations implying he is actually gay, he will ask if the Demi-Fiend considers him a "queer" when shopping in Ikebukuro, and will instantly get offended for those assumptions.Straight from your "proof"Japan has always had weird flamboyant characters without them engaging in butt sex or pdf, unlike purse owner
p5r. and then play strikers which was surprisingly good for a "musou" game.
>>719786421>is played for comedyand in P5 it's not? you hypocrite faggot loverjust admit P4 is a tranny slop as much and move onand Naoto is a spiritual troon, even after coming into terms with being a female she continues dressing and acting in the same boyish manner for the rest of the game as if she didn't learn shit, the game is teaching the player there is nothing wrong with a girl wearing men's clothes which is the first step towards faggotrythe only straight Persona 1 is Persona 1, everything else is tainted with faggotry
>>719786527>weird flamboyant charactersyeah faggots, i don't care if they don't act on their degenerate fetishes, if you a homo but your butthole virginity intact then you are still a homo>pdfgo back to whatever censored social media shithole you came from
>>719756537Metaphor
>>719786732>this is pro trans somehow Fuck man, you bought in to their head canon? Wow, sad.Not to mention the fact I already pointed out she dresses in feminine outfits if you cuck Kanji or get the Canon ending Fuck don't transition bro even tho the propaganda is getting to you clearly
V has better gameplay, but the story is pretty rough. P5 is probably the better game to pick if you're a total newfag to the franchise, though you need to be at least a little bit of a weeb to enjoy it.
>>719786884>shop keeper straight up denies being a faggot >somehow still is a faggotIt's like you wanted him to be one or something
>>719779475Godborn isn't really a challenge mode its just NG+ where you can use the endgame demons all game as opposed to just for a few fights like you would in the OG. It's a bit trickier since enemies use pierce instead of critical but not actually harder.
>>719786985>a girl dressing and acting like a boy is not troon-coded! it's totally normal bro!ah i see you have tomboy (troonboy) fetish, so you are a faggot lover after all>nooooo there is nothing wrong with liking manly girls am not gay!sure thing faggot
>>719787119Are the secret endgame bosses harder in godborn?
>>719787124>Can't read what is directly on the screenYep, this is the Persona thread alright.
>>719787161They have significantly boosted stats so they're legit a nightmare on Godborn. I couldn't do True Masakados, I had to settle for regular Masakados on Godborn and it still was Satan tier
>>719787203>does not deny his troonboy feitshheh no wonder /pg/ay is filled with faggotry
>>719787124Rise and Marie are best girls cuckAlso way to not refute anything, my evidence was just too concrete I guessThanks for the concession
I bought smt 5 on release and dropped it a few hours in. I hear that vengeance was a huge improvement. Should I pick it up?
I-is that s-short hair?O-on a w-woman?AIIIIIIIEEEE SAVE ME NIGGERMANTROOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNFucking kek
>>719787403What didn't you like about base V?Your answer will determine if I tell you to buy vengeance
persona 5 is objectively the better game and it is not even close. it will stay with you forever. smt5 wants to be smt3 so bad but it doesn't feel like a connected world, just a bunch of retarded maps.
>>719787403It depends on why you dropped it. It's still the same game but with more and better implemented mechanics and a second story that still follows a lot of the base game's story and areas but answers a lot of questions the original left more open ended.
>>719756537Tranny game on the bottom
>>719787124>Joan of Arc and Mulan were transLel
>>719787349>Riseyou mean the whore everyone jerked off to her half naked pictures, yeah she is the best girl if you are into cuckoldry>Marieboring bitch, more boring than that hag bitch with Igor in the carbest girl in P4 is that drama club girl, everyone else sucks ass (the rich girl and music girl are okay i guess)>my evidence was just too concretein the picture you posted she is wearing man's clothes you retard and after her ''revelation'' she kept wearing them, now why would a girl who accepts herself as a female keep dressing like a boy? hmmmm
i played smtV while simultaneously watching ghost in the shell SAC. the show was pretty good.
>>719756718>demaster>50$Lol no.Just emulate that shit.
>meanwhile in p5/rHoly shit just give up broThese threads are basically a (you) specific humiliation ritual at this point and have been for years
>>719787624Joan Dark was a lying charlatan whore burned at the cross by the true Catholic (the english) for her herecy, i don't know why you are comparing her to Naoto she didn't have any gender identity crisis that's just a modern feminist tranny narrative you fell forand Mulan never wanted to be a man she did what she had to do to save her injured father not because she wanted to join the man's world like Tranoto did
>>719787772the tranny bartender is a common Japanese videogame trope
>>719787552>>719787564I remember the story feeling feeling non-existent. Combat was pretty good though
>>719787647Because the police still believe she is male at that point She would get thrown off the case for deception Then the scooby doo gang would lose a huge Intel source and probably not catch the killerShe's completely fine with wearing the female uniform for (Yu) in relative privacy Or after the case is solved obviously in the true ending You have zero media literacy like the troons that head canon this game so hard>deflection to waifu warsYep more concessionsNom nom nom
>>719787878Name 5 gamedHell, name 3
>>719788093i actually could
>>719787923You may like it then. VV's new arc has a lot more cutscenes that flesh out the cast that wasn't as involved in the first story. Like when you first arrive in the OG the game basically leaves you entirely to your own devices, but in the Vengeance arc Yoko joins your party almost immediately, comments on a few quest and has new encounters. You also get the demon haunt where you can talk to your demons about current events at save areas.
>>719787923Combat is better, demon's have unique traits now that add more depth and strategy and busted combos if you apply them rightStory is better in the new route with the new girl, but not all encompassing like most jarpig stories. It's still pretty sparse though better told with better character scenes and development Probably just wait for a sake between 20-30 but still give it a try
>>719756537Neither.
>>719788158P5P5RUhhhhhhhhhIs Lala in the spin off's at all?
>>719788093YakuzaAI Somnium filesPersona
>>719788342Well doneStill faggotryAnd all three are even more garbage because of it
There's like five versions of Persona 5.Which one do i even play?
>>719788039>Because the police still believe she is male at that pointafter she gets her Persona Dojima talks about Naotroon being a female and how he sensed something was off about her from the start, the Police knew in fact EVERYONE in town knew the NPC's in school comment about it and that's why no one objected to her entering the troon-coded cross dressing contestNaotroon had no reason to keep wearing boyish clothes but she did anyway>She's completely fine with wearing the female uniform for (Yu) in relative privacyonly added in P4G demake you dishonest cuckand you're the one who brought up your Rishit and Marie waifus you faggot
>>719788342DamnOnly ever noticed p5s one because she has a lot of dialogue with worst girl in the bar
>>719788495>codedThat's their language broUsually for head canonYour not helping your case
>>719788450There's only two. The original and Royal. The others are spin offs. Between the OG and Royal that's not so clear. OG is harder (still pretty easy) and I personally think the new story for Royal is trash and brings down the original. But Royal does have a lot of cool new mechanics
>>719788425i think you missed the point. trannies represent the seediness of the alleyway bar night life.
>>719788661>Between the OG and Royal that's not so clearYes it is. Royal ia better.
>this thread
>>719788654who cares, ''based'' is nigger speak but everyone uses it here
>>719766636What game is the first wheel from?
>>719788796Yeah it's really fucking bad. I think it's just one guy baiting to keep a thread on an actually good game from expiring early though.
>>719788891Tokyo Mirage Sessionsa crossover between SMT and Fire Emblem about Japanese idol shit with Persona faggotry
>>719788891The smt x fire emblem crossover game, forgot the name.The ui design really doesn't fit smt5. They should have reworked it entirely, especially since it's supposed to be a mainline game.
>>719788751That's like you're opinion dude. Personally I can't stand the new arc and how it's forced down your throat. The original game had a great thematic arc and ended exactly where it had to, now halfway through the ending you have to go deal with some random loser's ebin morally gray dilemma for another 10 hours and the new ending is trash on top. It's like you're playing Persona 3, you seal Nyx but before you can watch the cutscrne where MC dies on the roof you have to take a trip to the Abyss of Time and stop Erebus and re-assure your party it'll all be OK before you die. It's bullshit.
>>719788495Wait so P4G is even more based?She's a pulp noir detective chuuni broIt's not deepThis line >>719786985would never exist if she was "troon coded" as you claimIt's as devastating as "dead naming" is to them.And everyone got grossed out by Kanji, Yosuke and even fucking giga chad self insert protag, who I expected to actually be presented as feminine because he's perfect at literallyfuckingeverything, but the game had the balls to actually make him gross too. Great message, don't try this at home kids.Like showing irl car accidents to drink drivers. Shock and awe deterrence.Only the absolute degenerate non human enemy in most other scenarios "passes", again for anti troon laughsTeddies basically a nigger without being an actual niggerUnlike youBrainwashed "they're in the walls they're fucking in everything" niggerfaggot
>>719789229>>719789236Oh thanks, right I forgot about that game. I never did get around playing it
>>719788704Okay fairI stand corrected Ohya us presented as the typical fag hagUnattractive and childlessCareer womanSo desperate for male attention she hangs with someone who won't ever fuck her
>>719789238>Personally I can't stand the new arcThen you have shit taste, sorry man.I'll agree it's not necessary to the narrative but it frames the same problem under a new antagonist and situation. The way it was handled was very well done. Even the most well intentioned person can become a tyrant.Sorry you didn't like it but I loved it.
I'm gonna play P5 royal because it has the really pretty gymnacist red head in it.

>>719756537P5 is really cool, even more so if you haven't played a Persona game before. It does have a lot of dialogue and cutscenes, so maybe you should check if you're in the mood for that. If you are, it will blow you away. The only thing is IMO it gradually gets worse as the game goes on with the exception of a few moments. I was burned out by the time I got to the Royal content and didn't finish it.
