>Deep stories>Deep gameplay mechanics>God tier music >God tier atmosphere>Consistent releases>Wide spread of genres and audiences
>>720754654Do they make anything that isn't JRPGslop?
>>720754824This is such a stupid fucking take sometimes. Like, if some company has found something they're REALLY good at why should they do shit they aren't good at? Oh yeah so you faggots on here can shit on it.It makes more sense to go to a company for something they're good at and have honed for years.
>>720754938So it's not a >wide spread of genres and audiencesThen, it's just the niche JRPG incel market.
>>720755103First off NTA but second off Atlus DOES have a wide spread of genres.They have a fighting game (P4A), rhythm games (P3D, P4D, P5D), a musou game (P5S), first person swordplay weird hybrid game (Maken X), hardcore Wizardry successor (Etrian Odyssey)But you are probably just a normie slop consumer so why am I even listing all of these lol
Thank fuck Fatlus exists.Alright, time to actually finish EP.
>>720754654You forgot>Charging you $70 for the same game with 2 hours of additional content
>>720754654>>Deep storiesNope>>Deep gameplay mechanicsNope>>God tier music I'll give them that>>God tier atmosphereMeh>>Consistent releasesCoD does the same thing>>Wide spread of genres and audiencesWhat do they even make outside of jarpigs and blobbers?
>>720754654>Deep storiesConvoluted stories with hackneyed character motivations>Deep gameplay mechanicsJust last year's gameplay with a new sticker.>God tier music Metaphor Refantazio had garbage-tier music.>God tier atmosphereClicking on map to travel isn't immersive in 2025, lil' bro.>Consistent releasesExplains a lot.>Wide spread of genres and audiencesBesides JRPGslop, what else are they known for??
>>720754654Problem with atlusfags is that the worse the game is the more popularity it gains, the average personafag hasn't even heard of etrian odyssey when it's their best series.
>>720754654yeah for the GOAT P5R which will take decades to not downplay
>>720754654>Bought our game at full price on release? Fuck you, here's the new version with some extra content for full price>No you can't upgrade your existing version, also we're delisting all the DLC, suck for you if you haven't bought it yet, just buy the full priced new version
>>720754654I buy everything they release day one thoughbeit. I am Atlus's strongest soldier.
>Persona 4 and 5>Deep stories
>>720754654They've made pretty much all my favorite games. Thank you Atlus.
>>720754654Atlus is not that good, but he competition is even worse so they manage to float to the top.
>>720754654Deep shit
>>720754654Metaphor is a good game btw.
>>720757221hi dad
>>720754654>retarded release schedules and exclusivity>half-assed ports and rereleases full of bugs and FILTERS tier asset/UI upscaling>release new versions of old games with additional content of varying quality at full price>remakess absolute destroy the atmosphere/style of the originals because they'd rather build off of their more recent popular games>every new release manages to have even scummier DLC practices>spin-off entries are of notoriously lower quality and have an excess of the previously mentioned scummy DLC practices
>>720757675Yeah sure, I'll try it when they released the finish product in a couple years.
>>720754654Clearly they don't love me>calls me a pirate>makes it so my only option to play their game is by emulating
>>720754654>make a decent game>re-release it with shittiest additions/changes possible and make sure this new version is the only one available for saleYou don't hate them enough.
>>720754654>Wide spread of genres and audiencesWHERE THE FUCK IS SNOWBOARD KIDS, THEN?!RIDDLE ME THIS, BATMAN!
>>720754654I only care about Etrian Odyssey which is one of my favorite series of all time. Modern Atlus needs to make EO6 and maybe port the 3DS games for me to view them more favorably again. I was happy with the Origins collection but it's been a few years now. I don't care about their other IP.
>>720754654>>Deep stories>>Deep gameplay mechanics>>God tier music >>God tier atmosphere>>Consistent releases>>Wide spread of genres and audienceslollmao
>>720758553>I was happy with the Origins collectionyou were happy paying full retail price for digital only copies unless you imported? you were happy with an uglier font? you were happier with no options for the tracks used in the untolds and nexus or all the additional portraits?
>>720756345>>720756015You faggots I literally wrote out the wide variety of other shit they make beside JRPGs:>They have a fighting game (P4A), rhythm games (P3D, P4D, P5D), a musou game (P5S), first person swordplay weird hybrid game (Maken X), hardcore Wizardry successor (Etrian Odyssey)
>>720759209Atlus only published some of thoseSplit straws all you want, EO is a JRPG
>>720758054I forget, was this character an alien or something?
>Atlus releases a new game>the best option is to NOT buy it at launch and instead wait several years for the "full" version
>>720754654This but only for non shitsona games
>>720759447A group of like 30 pink Furby lookin' bastards cosplaying as a trap
>>720759156I did import a physical copy and the font was fine since they fixed the battle commands to be all caps again. They were enhanced ports of the original DS games, I don't know why I'd want the Nexus versions of the tracks. I got the original games with some good QoL additions from the later games and yeah, I'm happy with the HD collection overall.
>>720758454...
>all this anti faglus baitif you like jrpg stories you like their gamesthe games they make are good for the genre they are aiming forshort simple concise to the point etcetc
>>720754654>>deep stories>adults 'r' evul>gods 'r' evul
>>720759952>criticism is bait>but it's okay to blindly suck off a company
>>720759797>...So very unfortunate, isn't it?
>>720754654>deep storiesNo.>deep gameplay mechanicsthat you will not use for at least 80% of the game if you even bother with them>westaboo soundtrack = god tierNo.>god tier atmosphereUntil they release demakes of their games.>consistent releasesstill stuck on p5 for almost a decade now, enjoy your phone gacha trash>wide spread of genreslike jrpgs and...?They are loved exactly the right amount. Perhaps too much if we are being honest here.
>>720760181I'm not blindly sucking off Atlus, BUT they are treated like some of the worst developers ever when for years they gave people high quality games and were effectively a niche masterpiece generator even when profits were bad and they had darker times. They never stooped to the level of low so many other developers do and I think they need some more love, this isn't me blindly sucking them off.For example a bad thing I dislike is the gacha game, but even then they made sure you can play it completely for free and not take 10000 years. Again, won't DEFEND that but they still put more thought into it than so many others.
>>720759952>>if you like jrpg stories you like their gamesCome on, we both know Persona 5 has an objectively worse story than Devil Survivor, Strange Journey, or even Raidou
>>720760895Nigga, you are talking to /v/ermins who only played P5 and disliked it because they dislike anime because they're normalfaggots but not too normalfaggy because they like to use swearwords ok
>>720761939Yeah pretty much
I love Atlus and Vanillaware with all my heart but I’m not obese I’m underweight
>>720760837>westaboo soundtrack = god tiershut up retard.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6cSbof7Pik
>saying the story isn't deep without explaining anything is legit criticism guys!!!/v/ moment
>>720754654>Deep storiesThe biggest problem with Persona games is lack of gameplay and naive stories.
>>720754654And then Sega bought them and ruined everything
>>720754824I think Catherine is good and its a puzzle game.
>>720754654I didn't like Persona 4. Dialogue was annoying and there was no gameplay beside your usual turn-based shit with weaknesses. I felt like I'd rather play some other, shorter JRPGs. And I don't care about "romance" in games like that where girls talk unrealistically and jump on your cock when you do something for them. Why can't they show true love like in FF4, why does it has to be an unbearable cringe that only 60 IQ losers can enjoy? Music is good though.
>>720754654Soul hackers was a pile of shitMetaphor was a pile of shitThey peaked long ago
>>720766713Soul hackers 2 that is
>>720765868they push tranny shiteven in catherine full body
>>720754654I do, they and From are my favorite developers
