This piece of shit has a 92 on Metacritic
9 fucking 2
>>
>>736071105
How is that surprising when shit like Persona 5 got a 93? Even though the story, writing, and characters are dog shit slop. The gameplay is decent and the soundtrack is excellent. At best it's a 7/10 and yet people suck it off anyway....so again, how are you surprised by slop like ReSlopio getting a 92?

It's one of the blandest games I've ever played. The art-direction is completely countered by the poor engine, the characters exist to suck off a bland protagonist and the story is more juvenile than fucking Persona.
It really goes to show that Atlus is currently in a media darling phase and can churn out garbage to critical acclaim.

If you're doing fantasy Persona, do the Persona thing in letting you pick a romantic partner. Hell, the whole ruling the kingdom thing is another dimension that can matter between your choices and that of your partner's beliefs/governing style etc.

>More variation for choices, including at the ending and major antagonists etc.
There's tons of potential here and ways to take "what if's" to their conclusions.

Funnily enough the Atelier Arland trilogy does the calendar system better.
You can tell the calendar shit in Metaphor is tacked on when there's basically zero urgency, you can do every single activity and still have spare time to max out all your social links with zero planing.
Ah yes they also give you a free teleport to anywhere on the map because we can't waste time on the supposed plan your travels game.

It's really not. Most of the songs aren't good, and the only one that kept getting spammed is the boss fight ost which is like a one-minute long loop of the most ear-raping but somehow also insanely boring trumpets ever. It's literally just brass braps, it's fucking awful and I seethe a little when some retard says it's a goated track.

Metaphor is the "ubisoftication" of the persona formula. I was fucking offended I actually finished the game only to find out it did nothing new and was made purely as low effort slop like assassins creed or far cry but with the persona formula instead. Fucking insane this won game of the year.

I had fun. Probably mostly because of the slick art direction and banging soundtrack. Writing was meh, but served the purpose.
It’s just a perfectly functional numbers-go-up JRPG. Doesn’t do anything new, really. Job system was fun, I guess until I learned it was pretty shallow.
For what it’s worth, I also enjoy the SMT games. And also think that it’s completely hamstrung by the fact that it’s a JRPG, and the press-turn/use buffs retard system isn’t nearly as deep as people pretend it is.

I don't think Metaphor was bad but it was certainly a bit bland. Felt like they held back on some of the "style" shit like sword skateboarding. It was more of an EO game ngl but without that dungeon crawling charm. I'd say it's probably the golden hits album but they didn't really pick any of their great songs to put on there. I still don't like the final boss and no amount of gaslighting will convince me otherwise. Actual stupid plot direction. I wouldn't even fucking mind power of friendship or shit like that but making Louis fail to be a "human" is some strawman bullshit.. Also fuck man just let me get the King Archetype in NG+.

Im not surprised, for some reason people forgives everything Atlus does even when the games are outdated dogshit (im not even talking about the combat system, it is the least of its problems), and still have bad writing.

Well, to begin with, the game actually intertwines the characters backstory into the main story and actually has an effect in it.

Why isnt this on Switch 2 yet? Same with Claire Obscur.

>>736088778
Metaphor will likely launch on Switch when they have the ultimate/deluxe/gold/reload edition
E33 is because they didn’t have dev kits because they were nobodies before

Deserves 75 at best.

Journos and critics overrated it because of the "muh racism is bad" message and coomers because it made them coom.
>>
>>736072898
Persona 5 is great. I don't know if they wrote the characters for mamo and sugita or if they let them free rein but these two make the game. Yes there is a lot of plot nitpicking in an 200 hour jrpg.
Then there is the meta adjusting of the story because Igor's VA died while the game was in production.
Metaphor is shit compared to P5
>>
>>736089336
I would say its more like a 85-ish. Its a decent game but really suffers from bad level design, ugly graphics, bad job system, repetitive music and lackluster story/writing. Will is genuinely the worst protagonist in Atlus history. At least in persona games the protagonsit self insert makes sense.

It was alright. Good music, but Strange Journey did it first. Boring plot, boring setting, boring fan-service, boring battle system. It's really mediocre for what it is. A Persona clone. The calendar system adds nothing to the game. Social links are flat out stolen and are inferior. Barely any rewards for completing them.

I was kind of enjoying it (barely tolerating the exaggerated idealism every character portraits) until I reached the ending of chapter 2 and the entirety of chapter 3.

It should be 90 in my opinion
It's good but most people who follow its initial reveal and development thought it would be something else other than isekai persona. Project fantasy, the first artwork, the image of Hulkenberg (much different than what she ended up being). We could've had something much more different
Instead the game wants to be P5 but doesn't want to fully commit. It's appreciated that leveling up confidants only takes one day regardless of your answer, but it still seems extremely generic. Same with... pretty much all other systems. The generic cave dungeons didn't help either
It also blew its load early when it comes to music. Regular battle theme is really good but the rest is not on par. Also they butchered Louis in my opinion. They created a very complex character only to kill him off with a "well actually no u, u a hypocrite" and that's it
The cast is good. The archetype system is overall good too. The world is interesting and it should be developed way further in a sequel

Yes i agree with you. The story isn't much worth, the fights are shit. The "evil adults" theme is annoying. Persona 5 just like 4 and 3 is lacking on soundtracks. I agree with all of that but if you had just read one sentence more you would know why Persona 5 is great.

>They created a very complex character only to kill him off with a "well actually no u, u a hypocrite" and that's it
Louis is discount Lohengramm, read moar.
The problem is that Hashino didn't want/was able to make Will a proper discount Yang.
Will should be reluctant to be a political actor, not eager to do so.

Them sympathizing with her makes sense and homo miasma makes people insane they just failed to convey that properly. You can tell because Gallica does that japanese writing thing of repeating key words another character literally just said. Gallica goes "...a fog?" or some gay shit like that.

What doesn't make sense is them gambling on her showing up to her own execution when they have a teleporting ship and can just pick her up themselves. Are Atlus writers retarded why did they write it this way.

Persona 5 getting any kind of positive reception at all taught me that the mass of people are retards and the people leading them are retards also. I never played Metaphor beyond like an hour of the demo which is all I needed to know it's an even worse version of it. The writers especially for modern Atlus should be pushing carts, they're complete hacks

>>736119440
It was pretty neat but I couldn't bring myself to play it more than once. P3 and P4 are far better story wise.

Yeah I liked it quite a lot would almost give it a 9/10 myself but I still think the whole calendar thing is ass and the last 1/3 of the game really starts to wear its welcome. Not sure why Atlus is so married to the whole 80hr+ game thing.

What is about this game and summoning total pseuds to its defence this game was trash

It was kino and you just don't understand it. My only complaint is it needed to be longer. For a JRPG it felt short to me, but the game and premise were fun. Maybe it felt so short because I was enjoying it so much, but for some reason it just felt...short?

Merchant is disgustingly broken and carried me through like 60% of the game.

Hated Persona 5 but quite liked Metaphor, thankfully. Not as good as P4 and Catherine but up there with Hashino's best titles. I liked the writing, loved the music, the sense of adventure and the environments.
Also love Rebirth and have no clue why there's some form of rivalry between the two on this board, they have nothing to do with each other.

Wrong yet again, big point of the ending is that the new leadership can competently delegate tasks to other people and the king wants to ensure that positions of power that pass to people that never held authority before don't corrupt overtime

>>736125105
Metaphor was way better than both of those desu it's not even close
P4 itself has only ever been any decent in its very first outing and not because of any aspect of the game's writing and Catherine gets held down a lot by the narrative needing to bend over backward so Vincent never actually cheated with Catherine and Katherine was never actually pregnant. Loved the gameplay though
