never played kingdom hearts nor SMT but i did finish persona 4 if that counts for anything
>>738267535IMO every main SMT game is good and worth playing, but only KH1 is worth playing on the KH side.
>>738267535Nocturne is extremely dry, especially for a Persona fagYou'd be better off with KH
>>738267535Nocturne is a tad more hardcore JRPG than Persona, which is a spinoff series of SMT.I prefer the Devil Summoner 1-2, mostly because of the setting.Kingdom Hearts is top comfy nostalgia trip action-adventure series, but only the first game is truly solid. KH2 is... okay, but it is also all around weird, as it's a sequel to the GBA-only "Chain Of Memories" that nobody played originally.KH: Birth By Sleep, originally a PSP game, is criminally underrated though. The rest suck and repeat each other. KH3 was ruined beyond salvation.
>>738267535As a Personafag I would never touch a Kingdom Hearts game and enjoyed Nocturne aside from the annoying puzzles
>>738267535Both.
>>738267535KH is better bang for your buck because you get multiple games for the price of 1, but Nocturne is also really good. just depends if you want to play multiple action RPGs or one turn based RPG.
>>738267535You should emulate both.
>>738267535they're wildly different and good for different reasons, you should decide yourself based on what your taste
>>738268395on your taste*
The reviews for the KH collection say it crashes too often, is there any sort of patch to fix that?
>>738268597in my experience it hasn't crashed much at all, but I've only really played KH1 and 2 on it so I can't speak on if RECoM or BBS are the games crashing.
>>738267535KH1 and KH2 are worth playing at least.
The one word I would use to describe Nocturne is "obnoxious", from the enemy difficulty to the puzzles later on. Wander around a map with invisible teleporters until you stumble into the right one ten times! Or just look up a guide. Cool presentation but shit everything else.
>>738267535You have more to experience with KH but SMT 3 is great. For the price go with KH.
KH1 and 2 are some of the best games ever made
Both games feature unfair bullshit bosses, so its up to you.
>>738272383KH ended with 2.
Buy kh emulate nocturne ps2. Ezpz
>>738274105wish there was a hack for nocturne that added manual skill inheritance
>>738267535While Persona is a spinoff, Nocturne is a vastly different game and there's a high chance you'll get filtered. Not trying to be rude but it's genuinely much more difficult in comparison and doesn't hold your hand at all. If you play on hard you legit need to get lucky to pass through some areas, I am not bullshitting. The remaster comes with a braindead merciful difficulty though but I've heard it's actually so stupid you can autobattle bosses so you might as well just watch a playthrough at that point. Maybe try SMT V first if you can cuz it's somwhat more streamlined. KH is great though highly recommended
>>738274325the remake has that
>>738276029I know, but the remake also kind of fucks up the visuals and requires lots of modding to not look and sound awful. If I could get manual skill inheritance patched onto Nocturne PS2 I could play it on my modded PS2, which would be the ideal way to play.
