Did it get overrated because everyone desire Persona 6 that much?

Like Bayonetta 3 is considered to be a flop with 1 million unit sold. All this good will and glaze for Metaphor and there is only a milli separating them?

Personally I believe it's because Hulkenberg had a flat ass.

Not all games recognized as good sell 10 mil copies.
Maybe. Outlandish concept, I know
>>
Nah it's great, solid 8.5 to 9, but i'm still mad about the cut magic academy, its removal makes the rest of the game just padding until the finale, they easily could have squeezed two more dungeons in there.
>>
it was just totally forgettable
>>
Borrowing so many elements from Persona hurt it since all those features (calendar system, social links) are pretty pointless. Manages to botch a job system which is really funny. Also way too easy, even on hard. Most late game bosses don't even get a turn.

Everybody is used to fatlus schemes and is waiting for the complete edition.

>>730640546
I didn't care for the demo. It has a bad localization, it's too much like Persona but with worse art/music, it has a retry button for all battles on top of already being easy, it does that clunky and tacked on Trails action combat thing, and worst of all they fucking lied just like with TMS. This was supposed to be nothing like SMT or Persona.

I honestly don't think it's getting one. Even if I would like to see an expansion that did something with the Mage Academy.

Buddy if you need a guide to tell you how full party Charge is completely busted, that's a (You) problem.

>>730641403
I liked the job system. Only thing I disliked about it was the Royal Archetype option being unlocked right at the end and being an obvious best choice for every character instead of forcing you to keep experimenting.
>>
>>730643194
That's a symptom of the larger issue. The game encourages you to stick to one job the whole time because the EXP items you get have no drawback. Why switch to another job when you can stick with one, gather up all those EXP items, and use them all to master multiple jobs without ever touching them? It's stupid and downright antithetical to how the system is supposed to work.

Thanks! I remember it back when I still watched anime. I must have great memory.

I think these two points are accurate and in the same vein. People really want Personal 6, so they hoped to capture it in Hashino’s new game, but it wound up being too derivative. I enjoyed it, but it took no risks and thus made no interesting impression. Good story beats though.
Based on Hashino’s recent interview, I suspect he knows he needs to change things up if he wants this to be Atlus’ new pillar IP. He showed channel whatever energy he had when he made Catherine for its seauel, but even then, that game borrowed similar game design and systems from Persona. He needs an Aonuma Breath of the Wild moment and throw his playbook out the window.

The P5 franchise has only sold 7 or 8 million since 2016, and that includes P5, P5R, P5S, P5T, Persona Q 2 and so on. 2 million is about as good as it's gonna get for a brand new game.
>>
>>730644362
Crazy how 7R2 is beating it despite being a port of an old game sold for $70.
>>
>>730640546
Already at 2 million? It seems like just yesterday shitposters were saying it sold 1million and stopped. How time flies.
>>
>>730640661
You're not wrong. They brought everything over from persona, EXCEPT the one thing that brought normies over to the series in the first place: the waifu simulation element. Like, atlus really though people were buying the games for the riveting 'adults bad' storylines and turn-based gameplay.

>I wish you guys would talk more about games and less about numbers.

That's literally every gaming board on the internet, everyone is talking about sales and LARP as an investor.
>>
>>730645724
It sold 1 mil in first day and only 1 mil in next whole year. It’s dead
>>
>>730640546
It's because it's so fucking ugly. If someone who knows nothing about that game takes a look at it, everything just looks fucking weird.
At first glance it's impossible to tell if it's sci-fi or fantasy. There are elves, but their ears are hairy. You have a hoverboard, but it's a sword.

Creativity and doing things differently is great, but doing everything "slightly weirdly just because" almost never works out well.

No one wants to admit it but a JRPG party entirely comprised of emotionally mature adults is the most boring thing ever.

I look forward to smugly saying "3 million already? It felt like just yesterday shitposters were saying it only sold 2 million and stopped!" next year.

>>730646192
Makes sense, Maelle learned to let go and continue on living. Alicia believes she can have everything always and that she deserves it
>>
>>730646192
Same. I chose Verso ending despite not wanting destroy the painting because she became such a smug cunt. No wonder he mom hated her and made her a scarred up mute.

The word you are looking for is niche. A niche game does't need to sell a lot to be good. But it's going to sell a lot when it's a niche game. Outlandish but true since it's been a thing forever.

>>730640546
Persona fans are the ones who hated metaphor the most, I'm guessing you're part of that gay club.
>>
>>730646290
There won’t be 3 mil because it had insane drop off in purchases
>>
>>730640661
This. If I wasn't a Fatlusfag, I would have dropped the game right there. Eupha salvaged the entire game though
