[GOOD NEWS]
The greatest JRPG of the 2020s is now available on Switch 2. Rejoice, Nintendobabs! Let us have a thread to celebrate the occasion.
>>
I wouldn't even put it in the top 10 JRPGs of the last decade lol
>>
I know there are some actual tendie cultists around here, but surely none of them actually wait years for a port to play a game.

I have a question about that. If I play the new version, do I need to do the original route at all or is the new one just better?
>>
>>751416114
I preordered from Best Buy 2 days ago and it arrived today.

>>751415554
Reminder the game is now $40, probably the best game you can spend your money with this price.

New route tries to be persona but ends up fucking up both SMT and Persona formulas.
It has a new waifu and some slut demons tho.
Best thing about vengeance is the improved gameplay, it's a moore fun game overall.

>>751415554
Finally a good JRPG on the Switch 2...

Doubt it. They still won't straight deny a new version coming
Wait till tga just in case

Imagine if you actually bought a Switch for that game only for it to get ported a few years later. What happened to all the exclusive JRPGs that the NDS and 3DS had?

It's awkward.
Both routes share about 2/3rds the same content. It's boring playing them back to back.
The new route has better story and is overall better, but it expects you to have played the original route to know WTF is going on.

I almost bought the switch version when it released, and then i saw the gameplay. It was clear from all footage that it was NOT designed to run on a fucking tablet. The game looked and performed like shit. I waited, and lo and behold dataminers found update files that mentioned other platforms. Tendie pedophiles coped and seethed that it was just dummy files that didnt mean anything, and then as swiftly as a noose drop, atlus announced the REAL version of the game, coming to all platforms
Humiliation ritual that cost them money kek
>>
>>751415813
Believe it or not, there are tendies who don't own any other platforms. All they have is a switch.
>>
I’m interested in this game but because it’s GKC I’m waiting it go sub-15€ for digital copy. Would have paid 60€ if it was physical.
>>
>>751417332
I don't really care about performance in a turn based JRPG desu.
>>
>>751417140
Being ported isn't terrible, you'd still play it first. The shitty part is not only purposely releasing an incomplete version, but then giving no upgrade path for the real version
>>
>>751416957
>>751417293
Is the improved gameplay on both routes?
>>
>>751417560
I would've thought before shilling, you'd have at least looked at screenshots or footage to see what you were posting about

There is one extremely assblasted person trying to do a gotcha against Switch owners in this thread

>>751415813
>I know there are some actual tendie cultists around here, but surely none of them actually wait years for a port to play a game.
There is a massive amount of games on the Switch ecosystem alone to the point that it's pretty easy to not give a shit about whatever vidya release elsewhere and just wait for an eventual Switch port later down the line.

Magic is now a viable endgame build, level scalling is not as bad as Vanilla

Thanks friend. I'll pick up a copy and I hope it's as fun as nocturne.

If you think with certainty that you're going to do both, do the original first.
If you think you'll only play once, do Vengeance.
In the ways that the two routes diverge, Vengeance generally has the better unique stuff.
>>
>>751415554
Got the steelbook version. I like steelbooks.
>>
>>751419343
I'll probably only do it once, I guess my last Q would be if you need to do both routes to unlock a final super boss.
>>
>>751419029
smtv vengeance is great. ive played both the original and vengeance, and done all routes/endings. id recommend just choosing the new vengeance route even if youve never played smtv.
theres just more stuff to do. i dont really get when people complain about the story in this game. smt has always had a premise, but the plots are never too interesting. these games are old fashioned dungeon crawlers more than the newer jrpgs that have a lot of plot points and character development. smt v doesnt have much story regardless of how you play it. the focus is the battle system and character/demon building.
its a great game. enjoy.

>>751419093

>if you need to do both routes to unlock a final super boss.
The game has 4 super bosses. One from vanilla, and one that was a DLC in vanilla. Both are in both routes.
Then Vengeance adds an additional superboss to each route.
>>
>>751418467
Yeah, Creation got all the gameplay tweaks, new sub-areas with the rails and most generic extra demons/sidequests and features (like Demon Haunts). Only some story relevant demons and special bosses are kept to Vegeance-only.

>>751416504
>>751419343
>>751419407
Either way, I'd recommend going with Vengeance first. It has a more developed story, so you'd better experience it with the correct levels/demons rather than in New Game +. Afterwards if you still want to play the game, you can rush through Creation in New Game+ to see the parts that are different quickly.

>>751417293
>The new route has better story and is overall better, but it expects you to have played the original route to know WTF is going on.

I really don't think that's true. The main thing you're losing is that some events in Vengeance seem to have been written specifically to surprise players who knew the story from Creation, but generally everything relevant is still explained in Vengeance by itself.

I don't know why you guys keep buying Nintendo products at this rate lmfao. Just give it up already and buy an Xbox or a PlayStation like real men do.

That's a 10 years out of date mindset. There's like 2 or 3 platform exclusive games per year now that may be worth caring about.
You can easily stick to a single console or just pc and never be left wanting.

If there are people retarded enough to do that on PC, PS or Xbox it means there also people that stupid in Nintendo platforms. Now if the system has a dry library it gets worse... but Switch 2 has backwards compat on top of a decent amount on its on so they're not starved for games and this most likely flop due too much competition
>>
>>751415813
talking like pclards don't wait years for games to be cracked/have denuvo removed
>>
>>751417364
To be fair the other platforms are not worth buying. PS and Xbox are barren wastelands when you cut the fodder in their libraries

>>751420095
Kind of but not the games you're thinking on. Switch ports of older games like those collections are a strong point for the system

Not that anon, and:

Nothing is stopping someone from buying that PC game if they really want to play it. Tendies literally don't even have the luxury to choose. It's not even close to the same thing
>>
>>751421126
>There's like 2 or 3 platform exclusive games per year
This is true
>may be worth caring about
This is steaming indian shit. The entirety of the switch 2's library has no staying power. Toddlers, manchildren, troons, women, slants, nobody really likes what Nintendo is doing lately
