Don't you guys have any standards?
They didn't even bother with name, how lazy is that? Dropped this shit immediately.
I'm new to JRPGs and the more I play the more I realize you'll eat any garbage as long as everyone does the same.
Also why literally every JRPG has a fuck ton of meaningless dialogues. I don't really give a fuck who left a cigarette butt in a boys restroom wtf is this writing? This shit is boring as real life, I don't wanna listen to some retard explaining to me what kind of chores he loves to do and why.

The human NPCs don't have faces because MC really doesn't care about the human world, he loves the demon world. Only humans who are intertwined with demons register as cool for him.

>I woke up. I stood up. I walked to the kitchen. I opened the refrigerator door. I saw a brown stain on the bottom shelf. The stain was dry. It was small and sticky. I got a sponge. I put water on the sponge. I rubbed the stain. The stain did not move. I rubbed it harder. My arm moved back and forth. It moved back and forth for ten minutes. A small piece of the stain came off. My shoulder started to hurt. My knees hurt from leaning on the hard floor. I kept rubbing the plastic. The water turned brown. The sponge got dirty. The smell of old food came out of the fridge. I wiped the brown water with a paper towel. The towel tore. I got another towel. I wiped the shelf again. The shelf was wet. I waited for it to dry. I stood there and looked at the white plastic. It took a long time.

I mean, it's just a sentence that says you're in a city. It's not very important other than situate you. that's why we call them NPCs. WRPG does it too. AI didn't exist yet to make every chat dialogue unique.
why would you talk to a random person in the street? ofc he's going to say random bs. good point. well ig most players wouldn't pay much attention to this either. so in a sense you're right in-not paying attention to the random ppls. Nobody pays attention to it. In other games, they tell you the mechanics or w.e.

MC doesn't either is why the NPC has no face and no name.

all I see is attacks and not a single actual answer why JPRGs are so full of this garbage shit. You guys include real life in games because you don't have any? Too busy wageslaving for some corpo like goycattle? No wonder you kill yourselves and don't have children.
Address the actual argument, dont be like a pretentious fag.
>>
>>738926559
What's the argument? There's mostly nothing wrong with the language or its delivery. It's you complaining that it's "boring" which is a symptom of someone that can't read which was already pointed out in this thread.

>>738926937
It doesn't purpose to have a meaning. You're talking to a random nobody doing chores. The game expects you to click A and go do something else, progress in the game/battle monsters. Also what >>738924859 said makes sense.

The only "modern" smt with a world and writing I cared about was IV and even that had its flaws. Oh and Devil Survivor Overclocked but that's not mainline. I play smt primarily for the gameplay and overall setting, as it's the best of the 4 niggas in a row genre.

>why do the persona games
smelly jeet you aren't asian, nobody asked your opinion.
>>
>>738928732
Because Persona games are built around building connections with others other then yourself in order to overcome your trials and tribulations.

Mainline SMT is about the self, and the one in OP's post is very much about how humans are nothing more then NPC's who mean nothing, and that is shown not to far into the game when EVERY ONE OF THEM DIES AND YOU FEEL NOTHING BECAUSE YOU NEVER CARED ABOUT THEM!

Retard.

All the anons ITT seething and saying you have poor reading comprehesion/attention span for not wanting to read literal filler dialogue from faceless and nameless npcs. Kek, anon you're absolutely right don't listen to the haters. The beginning of a lot of JRPGs are boring as fuck.

>>738933325
I don't think it's ever directly stated that's the reason by the devs, but they do talk about his disassociation with the world around him and his fascination of being in Makai. Consider that Tokyo the colors are all washed out and humans are all so stiff while in Da'at everything is vibrant and demons are so lively. The game also makes it a point to say he and Yakumo are similar people, and Yakumo despite his insistence that demons must be exterminated actually loves demons on a personal level.
