Tomb or forest first for the 3rd zone ?I'm thinking Tomb because you can get bath salts on the way through the village to use while traveling.
What level were you for the final boss
Who got benched when you got Junah?
>>498663696Junah
>>498663696Junah because she's a hoe
>>498663539Arena, apparently. Which I also did quite early. I imagine that can make a large difference, though I'm not sure if it's 1.5x Archetype EXP overall or just for the person using it.
Spend time with Hulken
>>498663696Junah.
>>498663696Hulk-chan. Then I replaced Strohl.
>>498663696bird guy or strohl depending on if i want to steal
What caused this game to flop?
>>498663696Strohl because I hit Rank 6 on him first which means he was safe to bench because he got full EXP
Someone just tried to carry out an assassination on heismay's and hulkenberg's mutant child
If this game had non-persona costumes, is there anything in particular you'd want? For example, P5 had dancing outfits and maid/butler uniforms.
What is it about this game that makes faggots so prone to speedreading or missing important plot beats? I feel like more than any other Atlus game i see retards online complaining about story elements that were very clearly explained. Theres even a memorandum. Am I just autistic?
>>498664691Young HulkenbergAllow us to use the evening outfit alts
>>498663426>What day are you on?First month>What are your favorite classes?Mage>Favorite BGM?Battle bgm>Are you having fun?Im having fun
>>498664783there's 3
>>498664728It's an Atlus game that has an actual story in it unlike the typical SMT or P3This is par for the course
>>498664691The versions of the outfits when they have their "jackets" off"Young" outfits (Strohl in a noble suit, Beta Hulkenberg, Shadowguard Heismay, etc etc)
>>498664809bravo ATLUS
>>498664728Most gamers, even those that frequently play RPGs, do not read the in-game encyclopedia, item text, non-essential NPC dialogue, and in some cases, skill descriptions.
>>498665414Im not saying you need to read the Memorandum, im saying it exists in case you forget a plot point/event, but retards still go online and spread misinformation or say shit thats just wrong. It makes no sense.
>>498665414text is on screen: I hit the O button, simple as
Eupha is fucking hideous, I hate these ugly three eyed freaks.
>>498665285I still don't know what tulpa means after years seeing it used on this site
>>498665553A lot of people skip through everything unvoiced, if even that.
>>498665681Should be hitting Start instead
>>498665734Tldr An imaginary friend so vivid it borders on delusion, like you can communicate to them as if they were a real person
What is the name of the song that plays on the Gauntlet Runner during the day before you get the wings + new song?
>>498665707I don't think she's hideous, but in general the mustari are better off with their masks on. Eupha's brother is cuter than she is, just because his portrait and attire don't emphasize his third eye so much.
>everyone else when you dont want them on the team: oh... okay... (sad portrait)>basilio: ah no worries bossman, let me know wheneveris he /ourguy/?
>tell myself I won't be stingy>use a full MP heal before a boss>it actually isn't a boss and is the end of a dungeon and I saved afterwards because I didn't realize a boss was coming upREEEEEEEEE

Paladin or Dark Knight?
>>498666069He's my retarded husband and he's not leaving my party
Who's your favorite non-playable character?
>>498666616Unlock Paladin but dont level it to be able to inherit Holy Knights Proclamation, then go Dark Knight. You need both at 20 for Hulkenbergs ultimate class but Dark Knight is far better
yeah fuck this fight, I have better things to do than waste 20 minutes of my life on this sack of shit
How big is MC cock?
>>498663426Virga Island music is so good
fake fans
>>498666996We don't know but consider Eupha, who can see magla (and the party members bodies are entirely magla because theyre archetype users) made a beeline for Will.
What the fuck commander seems busted.Even on strohl with zero mag stat megido and the aoe flame attack still deal enough damage and also he has Luster Candy.
>>498666996micro
i want to play this game on switch 2
>>498666954Its a giant pain but trust me its worth it, youll be kicking yourself if you waste a day going all the way up there and dont kill it. Set it on easy worst case scenario
>>498666996Huge.
>>498667198it's very strong but the weakness to strike is fucking annoying
>unlocked archetypes don't carry over to NG+what the fuck, what is the point then
>>498667198Commander is god tier mid game but falls off later because its damage really just cant keep up, especially not compared to Samurai/Ultimate Warrior considering its meant to be on Strohl>>498667319just wait for the inevitable mod that makes ng+ not ass
>4.5 hours laterwew at least i'll never have to see this dragon temple ever again in my life
What roles have you given to each of your party members? What did you build your MC as?
>>498667319The point is to not be able to steamroll regicideThey do carry over, you just have to rank the followers up to use them again You don't have to make the EXP investment all over
>>498665734It's a Buddhist concept of manifesting through meditation a thought-form of the Buddha, to help guide them through their spiritual training. Which has been co-opted by /x/ and /mlp/ schizos to summon GFs.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulpa
>>498667198I put both of the row changing attack and defense buff skills on Hulkenburg and she's an unkillable buffing fortress now fucking love how I built her
>>498667694MC: Jack of all trades/Almighty DPSStrohl: Slash DPSHulkenberg: Ability Tank/Pierce DPSHeismay: Disabler/Slash DPSJunah: Magic DPS/SupportEupha: Support/Magic DPSBasilio: HP Tank/Strike DPSStrohl, Basilio, and Eupha are my A Team, and Heismay, Hulkenberg, and Junah are my dungeon crawlers.
The MC's ultimate weapon is so fucking cool looking.
man, beating the shadow version of boss baby is pretty much a scam, you get jack shit from it.
I cannot figure out how to beat this Xanth nigga in 3 turns lmao.
>>498668293the effect in battle is so cool too

Do you get Eupha right after doing her dungeon? Wasn't sure if I should do the side stuff now or wait to have her in the party
>>498668869Yes, immediately when you finish her dungeon, I'd recommend rushing it if you want her asap (though it's probably the hardest in the game so good luck)
>no playable Ishkia
>>498668379i couldnt figure that out either
>>498668869You do. You should just do Junah's request to open up her bond, then do the dragon temple before the side tower.
>>498668379I just hit him until he died
>>498667694>MCPhys Main DPS, went from Pugilist for a long time into Dark Knight, also dipped into Assassin for the Heavy Phys Dark which was situationally very useful. That had enough passives until endgame where you go into Tycoon to get Almighty Boost and Wizard is good too for the Synthesis boost.>HulkMage, was dropped>StrohlPhys DPS, was dropped>HeismayBuff specialist in Warlord, needs little other investment, a heal is nice.>JunahMagic DPS, went down into Savior and Wizard, plus pre-reqs for Royal.>EuphaSame as above.>BasilioPhys DPS, just pick up Warrior, Swordmaster, Brawler, Pugilist and the man has an immaculate skillset + near capped STR.
>>498668379psst, use a poison and sleep item on him
>>498668978>though it's probably the hardest in the game so good luck)The side dungeons all have a higher rating than hers so I can't imagine they're any easier.>>498669098Doing that won't waste any days right? Like I can just teleport there when I plan to do the tower.
god i love the retry mechanic, its like im save scumming with save states and i always try to do the low accuarncy attack that critical for my first move.
uhhh was I meant to fight this endgame tower last? He's nearly dead thanks to almighty dmg but damn, I'm fighting him on hard with bad weather
>>498669423you were supposed to go left->right->bottom towers, but I did right->left->bottom as well. he has no weaknesses so bad weather doesnt really matter
>>498669549I wondered why the NPC said "WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING THIS ONE FIRST"
>>498668379Godkiller his dumb ass
>>498669636She says that about all of them lmao
this scroll and the one that removes enemy buffs have pretty much saved most of my fights. I just have Heimsay use them since he always goes first with his busted agility so the rest of the team can wail on the boss who uses cringe buffs and debuffs that set them to max damage and defence instantly
Tell me, why does every Atlus game's protagonist look like a faggot?
>>498667543Every time I heard this guys voice I kept thinking of Fat Bastard, especially his "poor me" speech before he died.I was waiting for him to fart and say "Sorry, I fawhted"
>>498670061This time there's an actual reason
dooes mt volcano not have a boss? i'm still looking for how to open that one ladder that's down below but i've got the 2 quest items
>>498669845Yeah, I bought a bunch of these when I saw them and boy was I glad. Dekaja and Dekunda are always great when they bring out the buff bullshit and many of these bosses are designed around buff bullshit, and ain't nobody slotting those as skills when you can just throw an item or use Junah's Fire AOE.
>>498667694Phys MC, tanky buffwife Hulkenberg, healslut Eupha, brick shithouse Basilio. My wife never leaves my party
>>498670379It does, that place is confusing for sure, keep looking around. It's probably a hole to a different section.
Is there a stat respec item? I'm kinda not really liking what I've done to my MC (luck is so fucking bad holy shit)
Do physical summon skills scale with strength or magic?
>>498670730Nope. You can cheat engine it if you really want to
>>498669282>Doing that won't waste any days right?No. It'll take 4 days total to run both side dungeons, regardless of if its in one trip or two. You don't have to stop at the forest again during the second trip to the tower, you'll just pass buy it and end the day at the campsite.Also the tower has permanently bad weather, but there's a mechanic to bypass this unlocked after you clear the Temple. You can clear the weather for 3 days, but if you spent an extra day stopping at the forest in a single trip you'd get screwed.
>>498670834nta but it's kinda wild how this game is missing stuff like being able to respec your MC, no fast archetype EXP farming in lategame, etc.
>>498670797It says Physical or Magical (Slash/Pierce/Blunt) depending on the scaling stat. Base class has both.
POOP
>>498670921It's 3 days if you go from place to place. It's only longer if you decide to do each separately.
>>498670797It says whether or not they're physical or magic in the skill description>>498670997there is fast archetype EXP farming, Skybound Avatar is filled with so many mobs packed to the brim with AEXP its ridiculous. My Royal archetypes were maxed halfway through
>>498670997worse still is not having an easy grind spot after you get all the characters
wtf this is so busted kek, I guess the game is ending so whatever
What carries over in NG+?
>>498670997>no fast archetype farming late gamehuh?
>>498671435not as busted as the shit some of the bosses will pull on hard, some are flat out gear checks
I can tell I'm gonna like heismay a lotI'm playing in spanish because people told me the localization is better
>>498671137You can do eitherDay 1: Forest dungeon -> camp there for the nightDay 2: pass through the shopping village -> stop at first campsiteDay 3: stop at second camp siteDay 4: Tower dungeonOrDay 1: Forest dungeon -> teleport back to townDay 2: Prepare in town by changing the weather for the next 3 days -> pass by the forest without entering -> pass through the shopping village -> stop at first campsite Day 3: stop at second camp siteDay 4: Tower dungeon
>spend 9 days dicking around waiting for the end of the game because Atlus was too silly to implement a skip>realize I forgot to purify my gear from the last dungeon>have to do it all over again because I can't go to town on the final dayAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>498672228what kind of retard doest make a save like 5 days before the point of no return in these games?
>>498672324Nigga what do you think the save 9 days before was?
So how hard would you say the game is? Harder or easier than Persona 5/SMT5V?
>>498672435I'd say it's harder than both, it's so easy to smash P5R and SMTVV wide open. Here that's true as well but at least it takes longer.
>>498670620i swear i've checked every wall, it's not something stupid like i have to kill the lion thats there is it?
>>498672435Persona 5 is a really piss easy game especially in Royal. Overall I'd say the game is a touch harder than SMT5 Vengeance
junah is an unlikeable bitch
>louis turns himself into le big scary monstertired of this trope
>>498672557Don't think so, maybe try lining up the staircases on your maps and see if there's any you haven't gone down.
>>498672435haven't played smt5 but it's WAY harder than p5
>>498672750genuinely dont get this. shes nothing but nice to you even from the first time you meet her
Does Extreme come before Severe in terms or power? Also Vorpal Blade or Phantom Swordsman?
>>498672435p5r is crazy easy with all the changes they made, this game is much harder
Should've given us the pink sheboon as a party member instead of that three eyed jungle freak.
>>498672898Sure, but that doesn't make SMTV hard. P5R is braindead outside of a couple of fights. SMTV isn't hard but it will kill you for fucking around.
>>498672941>white girl>conventionally attractiveit's just trannies being envious
So unlike the other "palaces", you want to do this last right?
im such a fucking sucker for leimotif usage, why is it always so kino
>>498673078doesn't matter, you have to wait for the end of the month to fight louis regardless
>>498673148Monkey brain likes patterns.
>>498673078doesnt matter, you can do it whenever, in fact id say do it before you fight the 4 dragons
>>498673078Yeah, max out your social links first. You can do it before the Trials of the Dragon I'd imagine, it's easier and the gear you get will be helpful. At least if the game doesn't lock you out after, not sure.
there it is
shido > louis
Wait did i fuck up if I went to the Forsaken tower before doing the airship dungeon?
Did they seriously just kill that Klinger fat guy off-screen? What was even the point then?
>>498673467Nope.
>spent so much time dicking around doing chores and sidequests that I steamrolled the second dungeon nothing personnel babby
why does she have like exactly the same face as sumire
>>498668997they're saving it for the inevitable re-release
>>498673467I want to rape Louis way more.
>>498673739Fuukaface
why did they make the villains all stereotypical ugly trannies
>>498673529Rewrites.
>>498674168The main villain is literally the most beautiful person in the game.
>>498674251nah for starters the MC is much better looking as an effeminate boy than Louis
>>498674479Louis is a shoujo dream boy not a girly femboy like the mc.
>>498674168He just looks like a goth elf to me. He's clearly male.
>>498674479Louis isn't effeminate. He's just beautiful.
why does the book have the kingdom hearts logo on it
>>498675784nomura is in the credits of this game as a "story supervisor" fyi, wont spoil what that means
Do Ishkia wings serve any purpose?

How easy is it to one-day clear the dragon temple? I prepared a ton for the louis ship and got...whatever the fuck that was. Is the dragon temple back to a normal dungeon?
i hate the music on virga island
>>498677403It's pretty long, but there are enemies that drop MP items.
>charge -> royal sword>charge -> royal sword>charge -> royal swordgoddamn I hate atlus endgame
>>498677753thats the best part tho
Nice, got it on the second-to-last optional boss in the final dungeon.
anywhere in particular youre supposed to get the talismans for summoner?
anyone knows if wizard's MP recovery passive works with knight or samurai's auto-self buff passive ?
>>498678139Yeah, it works with equipment that has auto-buffs too.
>>498678367that's great, thank you
>half of Louis' entourage are playable charactersso what do we just poach his followers?
>>498677881so you need to level 20 all of the archetypes for this?
So has this game solved the Atlas endgame issue of your party consisting of a DPS with 1 attack skill and a hundred passives, 1 buffer/debuffer that trivializes buffing/debuffing with Luster Candy+Debilitate, and a healer who spams full HP heal every turn?
It makes sense now, I checked the stone statues during the virga island arc and for some reason it mentioned Rella as running as a candidate, and I was like "since when she was running". Now I'm past the opera house and it's finally become a plot point so I'm guessing that was a bug. Surprised that slipped through
>>498678627You need to unlock all the Archetypes, which means you need everything but the Elites level 20.
>>498678713yes, by making healing obsolete due to press turnso you end up with 3 DPS instead
>>498678748so you unlock all of them and then? what else do you beee to do
>>498678914More gives it to you along with some other things along the way to 100%. Particularly nice is also a Helmet for MC at 80% that gives you 1 extra press turn at the beginning of a turn.
>>498678478I want to poach his virginity
nvm I like Junah I'm a huge sucker for the bad guy's sidekick chick
>>498679381
>>498679037where do you even grind for this stuff?
>>498679198>Louis>virgin
>>498677753Mine's more like:>Dynast Formation -> Royal Sword -> Pass -> Debilitate -> repeatSometimes things are alive on the second turn, but they usually die to another two Royal Swords after a bunch of passes.
>>498679661No clue, never needed to grind.
>love the idea of job system>game is so trivial I never need to adapt or customize Son of a bitch.
>fastest selling atlus game ever>dead threadwere the sales figures lies or what?
should i buy persona 3 reload
>>498679467is the forehead shit intentional or is the artist just weak in this area
>>498680702Appealed to normalfags, but not anons
>>498680674job system kinda sucks anyway since you get the royal jobs that invalidate all others anyway
>>498680702>good game>people play it instead of masturbating all dayno way
>>498680702This is the kind of game where a large portion of the player base will not engage with the community until they've beaten it, to avoid spoilers. Most of those people aren't NEETS who have had time to complete it yet.
>>498679467My princess...
>>498679467do people not think there's hair under her hairband?
Beat the game at about 75. Looked around, that's where most people seemed to be too. Saw a few people between 68-72, but not much lower. I can only imagine they didn't do all of the side content or missed a lot more Unscathed bonuses than I did maybe? Hard to say, I just thought about that being a factor now.
>>498681236with RPG's playtime can range wildly, they say its like 100 hours to beat Persona 5 royal but i spent 280 hours on one playthrough and i wasnt even trying to get 100%.
>>498681352I meant level 75. My playthrough was 45 hours but I skipped just about everything. Now I will be enjoying the game again slowly on Regicide.
>>498681352what did you even do for 300 hours
>>498681352>but i spent 280 hoursunironically how? i could see maybe like 100-120 hours but almost 300 for a single playthrough?
>>498680702Nah, we have steam stats.It just has no shipping/waifufaggotry for crazy people to obsess over 24/7.
>>498681420>>498681543i just play these games slowly, i beaten VV once and i put 180 hours into my playthrough. Im always fusing and doing all the side quests that are aavilable to me
>>498664997I assume they aren't real endings ie they end the game early whereas the 'true ending' is the real one with the real boss and the one you're supposed to do
Are the debate dates fixed? The guides online seem completely wrong. I debated the hippie guy on like 7/6 and the guides say his debate is 7/16. I did the dungeon the first day it was available and did it in one day.
>>498681619>shipping It's merely too soon. Fujos haven't beaten the game yet.
How many arcs are in the game?Please tell me
Mage and merchant farm is fine, but have you tried thief MC with lucky find inheritable?
>>498682935Yeah. I used it in the etrian odyssey dungeon because there's spawners with enemies that drop magla pills. It was pretty easy to stock up to 99
>when you realize that all of the summoners skills are just smt demons
This is the best Final Fantasy game in a long time. I find it hilarious how many story beats Atlus took from old FF.
Luck seems like a worthless stat ngl
>>498683263isnt that the point?
I'm surprised there aren't fights or riots breaking out in the cities between Louis and sanctism supporters you have to break up or something
>>498683389It helps multihit skills hit more, can be okay.
Just to be clear, you never have to use an archetype you don't want to just to level it, right? You can use a mastered archetype and it will give you an exp item that gives the same exp as you would have got on the mastered archetype, which you can then use on some other archetype? Is that right?
>>498683702yes thats correct
>the teleportation maze in the final dungeonThis is Louis's biggest crime by far
>>498683781between the dragon temple and now you saying this, do you people not just use the fae sight to see the obvious fucking solutions?
Easy fucking game.
>>498672435All the responses saying it's harder than SMT5 haven't played it. I didn't die a single time in Metaphor
>has a bunch of kids killed and fed to a Human>gets sympathy because dead childJoanna got off easy
>>498684574she got beheaded bro
>>498675784Is this 9/11?
>>498684574It's very weird that the whole party just lets her walk free after the human is killed.
>>498684909they didnt want to write in us babysitting her during the trip to brilehaven
I think this game barrows so much from other Atlus games to it's own determinet. Battle mechanices are easy to exploit and not as good as SMT or Persona. Time management is just an easy mode version of what is in persona. The setting and story aren't as interesting as any of the other major franchises. Game is a 7/10 at best but people are treating it like it's the MLK of vidya for some reason
DID NOBODY PLAY OTHER ATLUS GAMES???
noooo!
>>498681352I thought my 160 hours for P5R on steam was long jeez
not gonna lie, im not really digging the music so farmost of it is fine, but i only just beat the cathedral dungeon and im already sick of the town theme and its seemingly 20s loopdefinetly a big step down from the other atlus games, shame
>>498683781What fucking maze? You people would never make it in an EO Labyrinth.
>>498685438please spoiler pic next time :/
Heismay plaps Hulkenberg
>Melancholia Zorba gets hyped up with a sick transformation and cutscene>Gets one tapped by Will using charged Royal Slash after three stacks of tarakuja and three stacks of rakundaIt is what it is
>>498685871Music's one of the weakest parts for me. I agree that it's fine but it gets extremely repetitive to the point of me thinking they're trying to sell the DLC that gives you different battle themes. Back in the day Atlus would do several random encounter themes in a given game. Very few tracks have stood out to me.
>>498686439Imagine publicly admitting to not having played either of the games youre talking about
>>498686881>game blatantly tells you that the doors are connected by teleporters>you have to make the very simple deduction of there not being a door on the other end of the door you're opening>your retarded ass thinks this is a maze
Daily reminder that you can unlock regicide mode by hex editing your save >>498621559
>>498685193>make us babysit catboys in the next leg
>>498686728i like the battle themes, the guy singing in gibberish has something to it. But overworld and dungeon themes feel like they dont really fit.like the Grandtrad theme feels like it should be playing right before some major conflict with dread and anticipation all about, not for when i go around shopping and talking to people onn a chill dayalso the inn not getting its own theme and just using the town theme is fucking atrociousshops not having one is whatever, but the inn should feel cozy, not as i described above
>>498687036>deflecting to not acknowledge how owned you arewomp womp nigger, mommys calling, its your bedtime
So uhh why does standing on the backline make you better at tanking? Who thought this was a good idea?
If I scratch the spot above Basilio's sacrum, will he lift his butt up?
>>498680674either you played on normal or you never did any of the optional bosses
>>498672435I'd say Metaphor is focused on puzzle bosses, while SMTVV is tight resource management and maintaining rotation. Metaphor has more unique fights, but I've found I can fuck about and try stuff while not being punished too hard. If you're hitting weaknesses it's probably gonna be fine. SMTVV becomes the buff rotation game much faster, but keeping those plates spinning is hard as the bosses are designed to fuck up your flow. Even if keep it going high MP costs force you to be efficient, so learn to break the game or have back up demons. I think Metaphor might overall prove to be more challenging but they're different.P5 was just insulting. I regret playing on hard cause it just made things more boring.
>>498687284>Who thought this was a good idea?Final Fantasy 4
>>498687284you only take less damage from melee attacks, and deal less melee damage yourselfits mostly just so casters who have no endurance dont just drop dead in one hit from the enemy
>>498687284In EO it makes more sense because enemies are significantly more likely to target the front row, so the idea is the back row has the squishy classes while the front row has the tanky classes drawing aggro and row attacks. Also there are classes built around switching between rows or that have the flexibility of being able to do so. In the later EO games the enemies also use rows which adds additional depth to your attacking options, like being able to nuke the back row being a valuable trait. In Metaphor it's just a bunch of free defense so you always want to be in the back row unless you're melee phys so it's kinda just busywork that doesn't add much, especially because the enemy doesn't use it. The enemy using it would also help Phys not dominate early-game so hard much better than trying to limit HP-costing skills, it's one of the checks on AOE in EO.
>>498672435I haven't beaten the game but this game's superbosses is probably easier than SMTVV's.
damn, the second dungeon's crystal farm is definitely not as good mindless farming as skelligtonsthey dont always die in one hit with mage and they also jump back to get free hits
>>498688097I fucking hate spear enemies when they do this.
>>498687956I have and the superbosses are probably not even as hard as Shiva, much less Demi-Fiend. Overall the rest of the game is harder, I'd say, but it falls flat in the superboss department. These bosses would need another few ten thousand HP and more vicious patterns to be comparable to those endurance tests. There is one superboss locked to the highest difficulty, maybe it's on the same level.
Nothing more miserable than doing a dungeon during bad weather.Well maybe fighting against enemies with no weaknesses.
It feels like the larger populace only really turns around on mc because he's royalty and only the other option is a chaosfag lol
>>498688641>locked to the highest difficultyYou can do it on easy mode, it's how that site beat it pre-release
>oh hard ogres and minotaurs can pull off their bullshit one hit combo because they get an extra press turn and there's nothing you can do about it.
>>498688928I think it's very accurate for elections to be won by appealing to enough of the idiots in the middle
>>498689207>there is something you can do about it, you just don't know
>>498689496Other than guarding every single turn or hoping for a miss, nothing you can do.
What did you guys name the MC?
>>498689207Minotaurs never did for me, they just waste their extra turnThe orgas definitely do though, same with cyclopses.
Have you guys tried the new demo crack?They say it actually works way better than the previous crack
>>498689698I left it as Will, I'm boring.Have this Eupha to make up for it.
>Berserker awakening happens in a somber moment of calm acceptance, and not a righteous rage like the othersholy kino
>>498690209I don't know anon I'm not a retard that can't refund
>>498690501*pokes her in the third eye*
>>498690501>I left it as WillThere was no default naming for you to leave anything.
>>498687284That's common logic in any jrpg with row mechanics? Play more games retard
can someone crack persona 3 reload, i want to play that one next
>overlevelled for the dragon temple>only has to fight chimera and cyclops>still run out of mp anywaySurprised they have the balls to do this kind of dungeon. Then again I'm accidentally overlevelled by doing side content first.
Reading Bas' Literarcy book is making me sad bros...
>>498689698Blank (Slate) like I do every atlus name
It's stupid that not only can you not decide to bring what you want over in Regicide, the game doesn't let you play it NG. I guess I will have to restart and edit a fresh save, it even carries over Archetype EXP so there would be no challenge to be had.
>>498691926just emulate FES
>>498692063They are pretty generous though, there's plenty of enemies that drop mp restore items
Bitch slapped the big bad in the dick
>>498663426Mc is cute
>>498692394Ironically I probably ran out of mp because I just instakilled everything and get less item drops.I wish they told you the recommended levels of each dungeon>bro the travellers' voiceThese people grinded way too much
>>498692728That's why you use thief. Its overworld ability means you basically get magna pills every time you kill the moth enemies. So just camp at a spawner which has them and you've got infinite mp right there
>>498692063I was underleveled and i was in there all fucking day yesterday, it was kino
>>498671150>Skybound AvatarA bit late but you are better off waiting to hit tyrant star.
Recommend a Hulkenberg class for early game im feeling weak...
guys I spent 60h to grind warrior, knight, mage, healer and seeker on the MC, strohl and hulkenberg to 20does that give any advantage later on?
>>498693505Literally anything, though Knight is good if you’re running at least one brawler or warrior, if you’re running caster/Mag put her on Seeker since she’ll appreciate having buff and heal utility until you get Magic Knight + Commander
>>498692389i want HD
>>498693505Knight tree with a dip into brawler for the HP strike skill
>>498693726You’ll have plenty of A-EXP leafs lying around by the time you unlock promotions and other archetypes so you can now brute force any comp you want, as long as you’re not an idiot and cry about Guptauros sperging on your party when you have a mage
I want to see Louis's pretty little face full of cum.
>>498694058NTA, when you say plenty, how plenty you mean?I'm at the 2nd town and I've been literally using every single little leaf I get and I find them wanting
>>498694189reminder that this clear femboy design is actually a girl
Fabienne my beloved..
>Spend 4 nights talking to the Mustari girl for Tolerance cuz I have fuckall to do at night.
Louis is a hypocrite, right? The very same thing he complains about that he sees it as unjust that the Elda village was burned for no reason is the very same thing that happened to Strohl. But Louis justifies sending the Human to the village as a test of strength and necessary sacrifice.
>>498694350She doesn't look like a boy. If she was confirmed a trap, I could accept it, but looking at her I would never assume she's a boy. She looks like Fuuka.
>>498695449Well he's a chaosfag, it comes with the territory
>>498694189Cum should be deposited directly down his throat while you hold his head firmly to the base of your dick until he swallows it all.
>>498695449Nigga also says he'd burn Eupha's village down to the ground if they defied him.
>>498694251A-EXP items in general are a bit precious, obviously more valuable than gold since you can farm gold easily with merchant but A-EXP is tied up until you get the accessories/gear to enable faster growth, however if you elect to keep your party on mastered Archetypes you’ll begin to accumulate a good amount of leafs quickly which has the benefit of letting you redirect that A-EXP from a party member who may not need it (say, Hulk with a mastered Knight and Strohl with mastered Warrior) and funnel it into a single character accelerating their growth (MC on whatever archetype strikes your fancy, though I’d say a big one is Wizard after you Bond 3 with Gallica since rushing the Rank11 passive means you don’t have to worry nearly as much about MP management, just stick on any buff-at-start gear and watch the MP roll in every battle as you make back what you consume each turn)
Where do they keep getting these tiny bowls for Gallica
>>498695449He doesn't mind being a hypocrite. He's like Joanna, who justified the order of others' children because her own child was killed.
>>498695804wait if you leave them on a mastered archetype you starting getting leaves?
>>498696161Every 1000 A-EXP overflow that a Mastered archetype gains gets converted into a 1000 A-EXP leaf to use at your discretion.
>>498696131>order murder*
>>498696161Yep, it’s probably one of the best QoL features they put into archetypes and creates further decision depth because you’re not forced off to grind another class with must-have skills inherited, you can play any composition you want indefinitely and are rewarded by being able to quickly boost your promotions or even using leafs to grab an inherit from an archetype you don’t want to use but need a passive or attribute coverage from
Please tell me the last dungeons are as hard as the dragon temple island, I hate when the hardest part is halfway through the game and the rest is piss easy
Just how bad is a full luck build really? Is there no strat that works with it?
>>498663696Strohl because I had his Rank 7 for 100% EXP and Hulk was my healer.
>>498696740I found the second to last dungeon a lot harder but mostly because of MP management.
Opera city spoilers>kill Louis>gang contemplates trying to kill Forden because he's just as badThis is why political assassinations dont work.
>>498697268Spoilers for after that It also fails. Still I appreciate the team trying even if the only reason they failed was because they missed his heart.
Post artwork of Heismay and Hulkenberg's child.
>>498697507I'm still surprised they actually managed to damage him, because I was fully genuinely expecting him to look towards the MC as if he actually knew all along and was gonna thwart the plan right there but he really was completely defenseless.
MachineDaemonMetaphor: ReFantazio User ReviewWorst version of persona 4 in EVERYWAY, the story **** *** , make no sense, and is fill to brim with bad Japanese (californian) humor. No social link feature. No romance and worst monster and squad mechanics then persona 3. A WASTE of 80$, wait for for a 10$ sale or don't even bother... I regret buying it for 80$.
Is the final version of gunner good? Idk if I wanna keep using this class for mc.
>>498697745Sure!
wtf the twists in the opera cityTurns out Louis had his own plans and tricked the party AND ME?????
just killed homo jaluzodoes the story get more kino from here or less
>>498690501She's hella cute...
>>498689698Rand
Holy shit Louis's dungeon is bleeding my MP dry
Just beat the game:This is literally a branch of the persona timeline, right? All the backstory about how magic was discovered from human emotions and fucked everything over really reads like it, not to mention all SMT references in the jobs.
>>498697929He was also surprised by Grius. It makes him more interesting he's not an omnipotent antagonist though.
>>498696850In theory you get the most out of LUC with any skill that-Can crit (which precludes all magic from what I recall)-Has a multi-hit component-Attempts to inflict status ailments/conditionsWhich means the earliest possible skill that’ll cover two of those conditions is Slicer on Warrior, and at max hits + crit should be out-damaging a crit Diagonal Slice. The next skill that behaves similarly is Gunner’s all target that hits 1-3 times, which I mention over Brawler’s skill that does the same thing (sans the attribute which is now strike) mainly because the Gunner’s skill can be inherited once you upgrade to Sniper whereas Brawler has the skill stuck on synthesis. I can’t think of any skills that satisfy all three, but the above two are a decent starting point for LUC builds and it’s probably best to avoid ailment skills since the rates feel terrible until you get masked dancer’s passive. I bet Merchant with Slicer inherit is a decent Cathedral->Martira end cope build since you’re not hurting for slots with Brigitta giving them out relatively short into the bond and MP management isn’t a big concern for a Merchant when you can Money Toss most shitter mobs to death
>>498670180In japanese hes just Shohei Yakumo
>>498684574>>498684909I mean, she literally went insane from grief and thought it was her child.
>>498698546In the port city you have a short and sweet main dungeon that’s a mini-boss rush broken up by overhead segments, tons of roadtrip kino due to overlapping dungeon paths + rival candidates, and the NPCs in the city are all unfiltered bastards that are either telling you to choke on hardtack or admiring your guts for getting this far in the race.Btw, don’t forget to pop back to Martira once the next deadline appears. Genuinely one of the most stirring towns I’ve seen in a RPG for a good few years
how are people beating the game already? i just got to july
>>498689698I named him Poltard
>>498700020try quitting your job + only sleeping 5-6 hours per dayit's that easy.
>>498699841It was a very mild insanity considering how she picked herself right up afterward. She was pointedly lashing out against the world at least as much as she was "caring" for her new baby.
>>498700474>It was a very mild insanityI dunno, they had to kill the baby to remove the melancholia which was distorting her mind.
end game revealOnly just reached mc's reveal but sometimes he speaks in a better, british accent but also goes back to the bad american one. Yes I know dubfag kys. Anyway does it always switch? Also he's much less fuckable with white hair for some reason
>>4987000205 days off work and staying up until 4am and waking at 9-10am to do it all over again
I don't get it
>>498700727The prince is british but his OC is American
>>498700020That’s a you problem, Andy.
Hey bros, can I read spoilers anywhere?I've no interest in playing this game but I'm curious where they're going with the meta fiction stuff
>>498701223youtube.com
>>498700698Isn't melancholia just a metaphor for the effects of hardship on the psyche
>>498701386Youtube is pretty bad for reading
>>498701419Well, metaphorically, yeah. But in lore Melancholia is the thing that creates human monsters, so it's an actual thing
Was not a big fan of Louis at the start but after the Opera I start to appreciate his arole as antagonist.
having the party members acquiring a unique special snowflake job at endgame is so ass in a game that encourages constant archetype swapping/trying different compositionsthe prince archetype shoudnt exist, and the mc should be the only one that could have the royal archetypes, change my mind
>>498679467>best girls have fiveheadsit's like pottery it rhymes
>>498673465Why is it in some screenshots the background color of skill descriptions is dark grey like this but it's white in others? That shit looks bad. Like I don't struggle to read it but the legibility from a design perspective is still trash is this some sort of dark mode setting what the hell
why do people keep talking about "heismay and hulkenberg's child" is this some meme fan pairing or something?
>>498702370I love that she has metal bikini bottoms she wears under her shorts
>>498702609furnigger posting
>>498702370I don’t mind their existence since more skills/choices is good but it’s precisely because they only exist for their respective user that I think they were poorly implemented, a better way to implement the same idea would be to let anyone use an ultimate archetype but no dupes and/or only one ultimate archetype in the active party allowed. This at least encourages you to build around the one ultimate archetype as your core, rather than 90% of players having everyone on their donut steel archetype because it feels good cohesion be damned
>>498700908That kinda sucks the prince has a cooler voice
I got destroyed by the minotaur boss
>>498702609Well, they're both mature adults, seasoned knights who fell to disgrace and joined early on so they interact quite a bit. It's not too surprising.
>>498699042Most likely
>>498702957its not even a matter of cohesion, its that they just outclass 90% of all the other jobs and warp the team compositionnot running prince on the mc is pratically a handicap
i'm fallinng for htte meerchant bros....

how is this game more like smt than persona regarding combat?
>>498704536Errmm because... because I said so.
>>498703820Well yeah, why do you think I used time off to get paid to no life it?
>>498703383I hope that in whatever original game comes next from Studio Zero they either commit to static classes with some flexible via skill trees/branches or double down on archetypes and team building, I wouldn’t mind them taking more systems from Etrian odyssey with subclassing (preferably not EO3’s version lol) or master titles

>>498705412is it? i hear bravely second is good
>>498705412I love both but picrel (iykyk) was one of the best moments of any video game I've ever played
>>498704536Press turn system and enemies and players take their own phasesEnemy mobs don't go down when you hit them which makes them suspectible to Crits and afflictionsAlso for a thinker, how would a true follower of sanctism work as a follower if they do a director's cut. And what would their story arc be when it's revealed they Led the destruction of the Elda village?
>>498702370Allowing the whole party to use archetypes illustrates the game's messages about how those who stand up to enact change in the world can have a ripple effect and the strong exist (or ought) to empower others around them. The party can only use archetypes because the prince's power sparks theirs. "Your royal virtues are the precious kindling that ignite the flames of your followers' passion" etc etc.
I got filtered by the endgame fire dragon trial. Was doing okay, but got hit for 9999 damage and wiped. Is this just supposed to be a dps check or some mechanic I don't know about like that 1 bird who gets 4 extra turns if you have someone in the front row.I'm around level 50.
I figured this dungeon would contain Magla Crystals for me to farm.I didn't expect two of them right next to each other, though.I didn't expect the gobs to drop medicine so I can easily heal, either.Glad I came when it was raining.
Do the Thief instakill skills ever fucking work? I have not gotten them to activate a single time within 40+ attempts on a regular enemy. Do they HAVE to be weak to dark?
Thief is kind of a hot garbage archetype. does it gets better with assassin and ninja?
This game is amazing we need more jrpg like this
>>498707032Thief is solid. Dark sword fairly often inflicts forget and heismay on thief with stacked agi steals everything.
What archetype should I move Hysmay towards? Gunner? Does Gunner scale off of strength? I wish the scaling on things was a bit more transparent.
>>498706891Assassinate works on my machine
>>498707304For>>498706979No clue how it misquoted, just moot fucking around I guess.
>>498707032JRPGs are dead.
>>498707313Heismay*, I'm retarded.
>>498707313If it says "physical" it scales off strength, if it says "magic" it scales off magichow much more transparent could it be
>>498705472i was expecting something completely different, every npc is fully clothed, we go to the tropical islands and everyone is fully clothed and wearing metal pots on their heads.
So huh.. do you get Junah before, during or after the 3rd main dungeon? I assume you get her then.
>>498707374Does it only work on enemies around your level? Or on ones weak to dark? I have been spamming this shit for so long and it has never worked...
>>498707506After the 5th dungeon
>>498706351is persona a press turn? whats even the difference
>>498707649the 5th!?Damn you spend a LONG time with only 4 party members then.
>>498707718fucking kill yourself you newfaggot
Are there soft caps on the stats?
>>498705645While I wouldn't agree it's better than Metaphor, Bravely Second has some nice qol stuff like chaining mook battles for massive exp and better jobs than BD/Metaphor.The only bad thing about Bravely Second is rather than 4 new characters, you only get 2 new, and 2 old characters.Just don't play Bravely Default 2. It's a step back from Bravely Second.Bravely Second is the true sequel.
>>498707313Gunner, commander, faker are solid choices. All take advantage of his agility to buff/debuff first.
>>498697268>>498697507Just past this part myself, and it's kinda wild how quickly the plot moves between twists and finger pointing here. I don't think it's not done poorly either. Just if this were Persona 5 I would've expected it to drag out the suspicions of Forden's involvement, or Louis to hide his survival, or Rella's candidacy to last for some time, and instead everyone decides to lay their cards on the table at once.
>>498707835you are the toddlers shitting your diapers saying its so much more like smt which is so similar to persona its hard to remember what even is difference between the two in combat
This game is really sad.
I just did like 11k damage with Strohl synthesis skill, what the flying fuck? is this a bug?
>>498708095It's hard for secondaries to remember the difference, now go back
>>498708205cry about it
>>498708095Persona uses the One More system where the one character continually takes more actions as they hit weaknesses/crit and knock down the enemy. Then once all the enemies are knocked down you do a All-Out Attack. Opposed to Press Turn where you light/add/remove turn icons while continuing down the party line.
Game is mid. :/
>>498708310Yes anon, that's what you just did.
I wouldn't have gone for the luck meme if I knew you got luck just from pooping.
>>498707718>>498708095Serious answer: Press turn is easier to see as "points" you have to spend on turns for your team. You can only have a max of 8 points in most games and missing or being blocked/reflected usually either costs you two points or all of your points depending on the game. One More (Persona) is everyone gets one point they can spend however they want, but if they crit or hit a weakness, depending on the game, they can take a second turn or pass it off to an ally to enhance their stats for an attack. This can keep going for as long as the enemy can be knocked down. In some scenarios you can get way more than 8 turns. Missing or being blocked/reflected does nothing but prematurely end that character's turn and move to the next.
Ok I beat eulogy of the soul and finished the game and devourer of stars is still the most obnoxious dogshit boss in the game.
>>498708095It's Persona combat with less steps.
>>498708554yes anon I know that's just what you did do you need a tissue or maybe take your own advice and neck it
>>498706749Gear check, you should have some null/dodge/reflect fire stuff to get around it one way or another.
>>498706749Get 2 pieces of fire repel gear (there's 2 other towers wink wink) and he's a free kill.

The story goes at such breakneck speed in the second half with all the revelations and railroading. I like it but it gives me some mixed feelings.

>>498710205The game has a nice framework where you're free to run around, do quests for people, clear out dungeons and improve your bonds/royal virtues but it really does feel like the 2nd half of the game tosses it all out because they want you to focus on the story. Now I wish we got a few more adventuring dungeons instead of finishing up the plot.
>>498712159Hope you get fired for being a slacker
Good end I just made smt
>>498711954My job is just doing the most basic computer shit for some luddite boomers, so I can slack off as much as i want at work
Okay time to stop reading the thread, everytime I look at a spoiler it's at a part im not there yet and I'm at the 4th city too.
>>498703820I enjoy games but I do not enjoy lifeit is a strange feeling
I heard there's an accessory that reduces synthesis skill icon usage to 1, where do you get that?
how to get into junah bed?
since this game had a theme about Utopias, next game should involve Dystopias.
Really jostles my noggin
>Wow look at all these jobs this game is so flexible!>Except this job is the correct job to use in current stage!
>>498712121Doubled item drop rate, higher enemy damage in general, triple damage on enemy crit (which is bullshit) and weakness hit. No buffs for you otherwise. Think that's it.
>>498712858Magic Shop after Faker/Alonzo Rank 8
>>498712858you need a social link perk from the cagliostro clone and then they're available for purchase at nightly magic shops
>>498713113>triple damage on enemy crit (which is bullshit) and weakness hit. No buffs for you otherwiseheh they learnt from p5 merciless I guess, because that difficulty ironically makes the game easier
Finisher Noodles are a god tier recipe. Thirty seconds is really all you need to clear everything out.
>>498713347Yeah, outside of the boss fights without weaknesses, which P5 actually does not have too many of. By the time it becomes common it doesn't really matter either.
I like the characters less than in persona but the actual gameplay is so much fucking funIf this doesn't get a sequel I hope they make DDS3
How is the damage for synthesis skills calculated? Does it use both characters stats averaged evenly? Just the primary Caster's? A weighted average?
Hi
>>498713434wait does it work for yellow and red enemies?
>>498713434Wait, do finisher noodles let you kill ANYTHING in one shot? I assumed it just reduced the number of hits needed to kill stuff you already could beat.

playable Catherina? Hello?
>>498714040"no"
I,m up to the dungeon of Brilehaven and I still haven't touched a single advanced Archetype, gonna bite me in the ass at some point I bet.
>>498709635Turn BASED harry potter game? Yes.
>Game gives three options for the MC (me) to pick from >End up selecting the two wrong answers before the right oneIt never fails
>>498714040Best you're going to get is her sometimes showing up in side dungeons to do a free opener attack on one enemy, it's a damn shame I know.
i couldnt do cathedral in one go
So what's the best route for the Brilehaven side quests? Inundo > Tomb > Tower > Gracia?
>>498714721Inundo and Tomb before beating up the bosses at the ship then Tower. Tower is pretty brutal
Sometimes I go to Akademia to manage archetypes just because I don't want More to be lonely.
>>498713668>>498713702It's one hit for any enemy, I believe. Saved my ass when I got surrounded by some fuckers that were 14 levels higher than me.
>social activities in later town gives more virtue I'm fucking bricked. That said, I managed to have 4 in everything in the 4th chapter so maybe it's not too bad
>random clickbait article just threw a picture of the final boss in the thumbnail not even an hour before I was about to get to it
>Eupha: Perhaps freedom unchecked gave rise to conflictYOU HEAR THAT LIBTARDS?! YOU THINK FREEDOM TO CHANGE YOUR WILLY INTO AN AXE WOUND IS WHAT WILL SAVE YOU? SAVE CIVILIZATION? NO YOU DEMENTED FREAKS. JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN DO SOME
>>498715531Trust me, you'll have time, the calendar is the most idiotproof it's ever been
Wow the Brilehaven arc was garbage. Such a step down...What were they thinking?
>>498715367>It's one hit for any enemythis changes everything
What should your stat spread look like by end game? I know traditionally just pumping strength to max is usually the way to go with dips into end and agi but is it different in metaphor?
You know early in the game I had the thought "why doesn't the player just ask Louis to lift the curse on the prince now that the King has forced a democratic election? Surely some young crippled boy isn't going to beat him, even if he did try to go for the throne." And now that I got to the assassination I realized how much that would have broke the plot lol
>strohl has the money to buy 100 houses in the capital>still expects me to pay for all his equipment and items out of my own pocketcheap ass.
>>498715353I haven't gone there at all yet. I don't understand the point of switching jobs
>>498715923He HAD the money to buy 100 houses in the capital, then he bought 100 houses in the capital
>>498715923mitsuru, haru, and yukiko don't pay the bills either
>>498716161Same reason why you fuse your demons, to get support skills, elemental coverage and passives
>>498711954I'm a neet
>>498716161Each job has a unique uninheritable passive that only works on the protagonist, plus with your limited inheritance slots some jobs might have more useful spells compared to others.
>>498715923strohl is probably even more dirt poor than the mc, he's just a freeloader leeching off his relatives
>>498715637Anon, I don't think she was saying any of that...
>>498716210why didn't he just buy 99 houses and then use what was left over to gear himself up. i'm not made of money (i am)
>>498715786Yeah, I'll probably be fine, but I could use all that wasted time for the gladiator or something. I didn't expect the difference in virtue exp to be that huge, like two times more than the previous town.
>>498716537Low value commoner dwellings are likely pretty cheap compared to high end adventuring gear.
>>498716161So you can optimize, of course. You want to be the correct class, right? It's just like Pokemon. People create new teams for each gym fight. No, they don't just use Pokemon they like. They redraw Pokemon for each gym!
>>498716492>fuck niggersWhat did Eupha mean by this?
Junah stopped being tight after 1 night with Louis.
>>498716863just have her go into her true form and she'll be back to being tight
Looking forward to the Metaphor DLC where all the girls get super sexy demon armor from the Archdemon Archetype
>>498716807It would be pretty funny if out of nowhere Eupha was just like, "Goddamn paripus, I get sick at the idea of them handling my food..." or something else wildly racist.
>Eupha tears Milo a new asshole kek
The biggest crime in this game is not giving Hulkenchan her Royal Knight armor as an outfit
Doing the Dragon Temple in one go is the real brave man's road
>>498717081I did it and I do not recommend. Had to run past most enemies on the final section as I was almost completely drained of SP.
>>498717057That's one thing the game could have used, clothing variation. Like P5 has heaps of different outfits for the characters depending on season and situation. Here the characters are going into 40 degree humid heat and freezing cold places in the same outfits.
>>498717081I did it and it was easy
The dialogue before the 3rd major story dungeon implies you need to level up a bunch before you tackle it. Is that actually necessary or can I just jump right in and get it over with?
>>498717201The magla crystals are placed near the shortcuts at the end so that you can farm them with mage/thief/merchant etc. I put on a youtube video and farmed the moths with thief and had x99 magla pills after 20 min
>>498717081I did it while fucking my wife.
>>498717342>youtubelook at this poorfag
cute retard
>>498712360Please respond.
>>498717057The lack of outfits for the main characters is one of my few letdowns. Give me Eupha in a puffy coat! And a bikini! the helmet stays on with the bikini

>>498718001if kids are being bullied for playing it why are grown ass men playing it

why is strohl so fucking smart compared to everyone else?is it the power of basic education and not being either a woman or an animal?
Beloved Euph!
>>498718092When you're old you don't care about other people's opinions

>>498718112>Game has no romance>Forces herself on the MC anywaysBest girl. Pretty sure MC got engaged to her without realizing it.
>>498718092My coworkers are all boomers who don't give a shit what games I play.
>>498718314Arent Ishkians the intellectually inclined tribe
>>498718112It's weird the third eye doesn't blink like those boss monsters with an obvious weak spot
I NEED to tongue kiss this Fidelio catboy.
>>498717327Nah, they made this game with people who struggle with P5 in mind. The NPCs will also say the same thing about the fourth dungeon but don't listen to them.They told me to do the side dungeons first and I ended up overlevelled
>>498719281I think I read how the 3rd eye is essentially unmoving and a dead organ that is only used for sensing Magla and they cant really use them for anything else.
something you retards won't accept: strohl plays the same role as Yosuke
>>498719780He is, but he's not loud and obnoxious
>>498719625>people who struggle with P5they exist?
>>498719780with none of the obnoxious traits that come with the usual comic relief character.
>>498719780If he were like yosuke he would be the most obnoxiously racist character in the game and played for comedy.
I just unlocked devil summoner and created a bunch of the summon items but not all of them are showing up in eupha's skill list. Is there anything else I have to do?
>>498720337Learn to read.
>>498719923I have a friend who doesn't really play JRPGs but got into P5 because of all the Smash hype. He game overed multiple times on easy mode.
>>498719768They seem to be able to close them.
>>498720763Checks out, it makes even less sense for it to be unable to be closed considering eyes need hydration
>>498720949You pour water onto your eyes? Retard.
>>498719780Nah Strohl is actually intelligent and checks himself constantly compared to these three idiots.
About the endingSo if this is a third pillar, would a sequel be following the same cast and world? Since mc has a new book? Or do you think the good end is a generic "adventure continues for them" end? Would you prefer a new cast/setting or more of this one?
>>498715353I go just to pet plateau
>>498712360side quest. the dungeon expects you to have done them, it will flay you if youre undergeared and underleveled
>>498721296No way in hell this cast can carry a sequel.
>>498721164Unironically yes, its your eyelids that do that dumbass. And eyedrops are a thing
>>498721380You're fucking stupid.
Just unlocked AssassinHow abuseable is Assassinate?At the tower of blind faith, and I am wildly underleveledI can kill the beefier enemies, but it takes a lot of mpI was thinking of using Assassinate to see if I can cheese the elite enemies, because otherwise I'm having to teleport out of the tower and just beat on the little skeletons on the second to last floor, which I'm doing anyways to regenerate mp
>>498711827W
>>498718315I love my three eyes wife so much bros
>>498721335I saved and went in there to check it out. Fighting that Ear F.O.E would have taken forever with how little damage I was doing to it.
>>498719923Surprisingly they do. The usual filter is okumura's arc because "it's too long" and the boss is "frustrating"That's why madarame was turned into okumura lite in royal to ease it better, but they still struggle with it lmao.
>>498721296Impossible to have a sequel be a game because More is gone and he's what gave you the power of Archetypes. I can see it through a manga or some other type of media but I think they'd change casts the same way Persona/SMT does
>>498715923nigga read the description of strohl's clothes, he literally only has one outfit. he got his inheritance and immediately spent it. hes broke
>>498712631please tell me more, i hate my jobless life
>>498721647I doubt you're black. Don't use that word.
>>498721686Well thats interesting because i know for a fact YOURE black
>>498721628 New book could equal a new guide which would help explain why the cast is starting over from nothing again in regards to whatever the new archetype equivalent would be.
i just know she's going to be a slut
>>498715923Strohl would rather be broke than live knowing that one of his people is out in the streets.
>>498721296If you max out the pink uma musume girl and read her epilogue segment in the capital she talks about how she crossed the ocean during the timeskip to visit a different country, so atlus now has an entire planet to tell stories in without having to worry about all the baggage that comes with making games adjacent to our reality.
>>498721628were you playing the game with your eyes closed or something? thats not what More did at all. hes a scholar who researches archetypes, not the one who granted you the power to use them.
>>498721580Didn't they fuck up Okumura in Royal to the point where it's actually easier to beat it on Merciless than on Easy? Can't imagine those people had a great time with that one.
>>498721870it's over
this is just expedition 33 but japan
>>498721870Maria so kind she would be the type of girl that would help boys get off in an effort to help them with their pain.
>>498721870>>498722021>sees kid excited to play with her friends>first thought is "yeah she'll be a slut"think about that for a second
>>498722085Found the female.
>>498721907You still needed to use the Akademia to have control of them regardless in a gameplay perspective and assumingly having to visit him if you think about it from the MC's perspective.Everyone else may have never known about More but he was still important
>>498721932merciless is the easiest difficulty overall in royal because you permanently deal twice more damage lmao. back in the vanilla version, it's balanced by the fact that you're broke and underlevelled all the time, but they removed that penalty in royal
>>498722038nah metaphor is western fantasy (japanese)expedition 33 is just straight up french high fantasy
What are the chances Maria ends up dependent on MC as she grows up
Any lewds of Maria yet?
It's actually maddening to realize how many endgame cutscenes they put in trailers.
>>498722315what are the chances a citizen becomes dependent on their king? gee faggot, I dont know, you tell me
are they going to patch the game to make the textures not complete garbage or are they saving that for the re-release? Why is this game 80 gigs?
>>498721932>Didn't they fuck up Okumura in Royal to the point where it's actually easier to beat it on Merciless than on Easy?No. That's actually a positive about Okumura's boss. He's one of the few bosses that actually makes use of the one more system, which has the byproduct of making it piss easy on Merciless since Merciless triples all weakness damage.
>>498663426is the snowy opera house city the last weapon/armor shop location or is there more later?what do I spend money on
>>498722424>merciless triples all weakness damageI fucking forgot they did this holy shit. what were they thinking
>>498722315Maria actually makes friends
>>>/vg//pg/
>>498718315nah eupha stinks, not our wife
>>498722504They weren't. I adore Royal, but they did not re-balance the game around the changes they had made with Royal.
>Have ten days left with everything done and maxed out>Know it would be better to spend those 10 days actually doing something but I want to get to the end alreadyShould I suck it up and try to maximize by doing laundry/vacuuming or do I just gun it to wrap it up?
>>498722543cry
>>498722490faker guy and nigger woman social links unlock more accessories you can buy that are expensive and might be very useful depending on your playstyle. Stuff like halving synergy cost and equipable charge
metaphor 2 will set in medieval japan. trust the plan
>>498722640It's pretty much cheat mode, I don't know why everyone said it's an improvement
>>498722685Sorry this sounds more negative then I meant, I dont want to "wrap it up" I really want to see the ending and final boss.
>>498722770I think if we do get a follow up that it will end up being the true world trotting adventure that Hashino was originally planning for P5. Metaphor was in some ways a realization of that concept, but it was restricted to a single county.
>>498722693yu narukami makoto yuki kasumi yoshizawa
>>498722918a-anon...
>>498722832just do a save where you're at and then rush to the end and see the ending. Then load it up to do the side content you missed out.
>>498722715so thats equipment shop location though right? final shop just had a epic merchant weapon...just epic..
>>498722391>Why is this game 80 gigs?No compression on the voice files. You ever noticed how shit the voices sound in Persona and how this game doesn't have that problem?
>>498715797why?
>>498723225if companies arent gonna learn to compress voice files could they at least start offering different voices as free dlc so we can uninstall the ones we dont use?
>>498723138that's the final shop, there's 2 endgame gold weapons per class each and they're either enemy drops or from the final dungeon respectively.the final dungeon weapons have minorly more damage than the enemy ones but to compensate the enemy drop weapons have way better effects
>>498723003No spoilers allowed.
>>498723284Until someone invents a new compression format for audio that does not lose quality while keeping a tiny file, we're gonna see games with massive file sizes for a long time.
>>498721438Either there's a level requirement or the insta kills have extremely low ratesJust used Godkiller on several higher level enemies, about 100 times each, and it didn't proc once
>>498723225what voice files? Half the game is unvoiced even during the main story path. felt like I was playing an FF14 expansion to be honest
>>498723490Heh, tranny.
>>498715637>Perhaps freedom unchecked gave rise to conflictAnd that is a good and natural thing. That is fertile soil for the organic emergence of institutions in a more voluntary manner, as opposed to one imposed by those that claim to know better while they are the first ones to fuck everything up (including you and yours).
>>498723490Please look forward to Metaphor Royal now featuring 50% more voiced dialogue.
>>498723397It's not spoilers, its the fact that IS Yu, Makoto, and Kasumi. That anon is trying to make a joke about how Strohl, MC, and Hulk look like Yu Makoto and Kasumi but that image IS the latter three cosplaying as the first three.
>>498723570Okay leftist retard
>>498723602Im a fucking retard
>>498718107>strohl>smartthe plot made him take many stupid decisions for the team, it just worked out in the end because of plot convenience.
>>498723597P3 remake had fully voiced social links meanwhile the big "new IP" doesn'twhat is even going on at atlus
>>498723597If there actually is an expanded rerelease of Metaphor a few years from now I'm just not gonna buy it. I can't be fucked playing through an entire Atlus game a second time just for one extra dungeon anymore.
>>498721438The rates are low enough to not be reliable.
why are they using .flac voice lines, just use .mp3
>>498723805you're supposed to play for the rerelease waifu :)
>>498723797Metaphor is so fun I think I'll go buy Persona 3 remake the next time it goes on sale
>>498723797Because the social links take up 90% of P3's gameplay? Also, that's disingenous to say given that social links haven't been fully voiced for years and years until P3R
>>498723704>pro-freedom message>leftistLeftists are the ones trying to impose their bullshit, though. Also, the royal lineage is very clearly counterbalanced by other institutions, besides clearly following ideals similar to that of the enlightenment. Obviously the best one would be the scottish enlightenment.
>>498723810For realUsed Godkiller a bunch of times, which it says that it has a high chance of insta death, and it didn't proc once
>>498722164More was helping but neither he nor the disembodied voice that you hear actually gave them archetypes they just awakened them and the MC reopened the magic school to study that phenomenon.
>>498723490I like that Louis never gets a cutscene without VA
>>498723797i feel metaphor was lower budget than persona 5 despite its status. So im not surprised by the lack of full voice-acting.
>mimic dungeongenuine dogshit what's the easiest way to cheese this
Interesting how the /v/ schizo has figured out his wokeposting bait doesn't work so he's switched to vague /pol/ prodding in the context of the game.
>>498724049By raising your IQ above 70
>>498723890even though im kinda convinced atlus will stop rereleasing their games, im still gonna hold out on persona 3 reload. Atleast until the switch 2 port.
>>498718107Any King need a good advisor
>>498724078Have some reddit gold.
>>498724049Pay them off
>>498723797Maybe they didn't wanna go all in on the new IP they didn't even know people would like.Besides, P3 Reload was like, the 4th version of Persona 3 Atlus has released. They were basically obligated to voice everything this time.
>>498671702>I'm playing in spanish because people told me the localization is betterSame. There are certain words that I have never heard before, but I guess giving the "medieval" setting it's ok.
>>498724049Pay the informantThrows coins at them and they will wasting turn
>>498723892listen, if I have to read 10 minutes of unvoiced dialogue in a main story dungeon I will shitpost about it on the internet considering both p5r and p3r added addtional voice acting. Atlus and I both know they were just being cheap and will jew me 1+ year from now
>>498724179Thanks.
>dungeons and field dungeons all look the same>the quest givers are unvoicedThere's no reason why they cant give us like 10-20 more dungeons in the game with quests involved with them. Maybe in the expanded improved version of the game.
>>498724347Nah
>>498724497I like the gameplay in this game so much I would buy a fucking spinoff that doesn't have all the persona stuff in it and is just pure gameplay focused
>>498724018I checked the credits and you're right. It has a fraction of the staff that P5 did. For example P5 had 18 people credited as confidant planners, Metaphor has 6 people credited as follower planners, two of which are outsourced. In terms of main story writers Metaphor has 4 where P5 has 11. In basically every category Metaphor has less than half the staff
>>498724957Makes sense since it's a gamble to do something like this without "persona" or "smt" in the title
>>498724957metaphor 2 will be the GREAT atlus game. trust me.
>>498724957makes sense>Hashino you gave us the cash cows of Persona>we give you 7 years to figure out and work on a new IP with a smaller team Now that metaphor is a massive success, the game will probably got expanded upon and he'll get more leeway on making more games.
did they try to get this game onto the switch but gave up late on development? How do you even make textures this low resolution intentionally
>>498718241That's fine, I just thought it might have been an ongoing joke since that's kind of just his thing in like, every game.>>498723797>>498724018>>498725135That's because Metaphor's not going off of P3R, but P5. It has been since development was announced all those years back (development, not concept). It's really not that surprising considering it still has PS3 textures and acts like a PS3 game. Whatever's coming after this is what will be building off of P3R, most likely.
>>498725141
>>498724957>18 people credited as confidant plannersDamn, that's 1 person per confidant since 3 out of 21 are automatic and fusion puzzles.
>>498725250Given how long games take to develop these days we sadly wont see any sequel or anything for perhaps 3-4 years at minimum
Megidolaon.
>>498725292I'm sure they tried considering Studio Zero put Full Body on the switch, but I'm guessing they couldn't get it running well enough and just said "Fuck it, we'll wait for the switch 2". They even managed to get Full Body on the vita, which is the same engine, so I don't know how the performance got so bad.
i dont want to play this game anymore.
>>498725292atlus simply isn't that talented in the visual parts. look at P3R's theurgy animation, most mobile games nowadays look better than that
>>498725415they will make a deluxe edition of this game for sure to bridge the gap, I just hope they finally start selling that shit as DLC (they won't)
>>498725493Maria is so aroused right now.
>>498725415They'll do a metaphor spinoff era. We'll get a metaphor musou and a metaphor dancing game
>>498725547The vita was a fairly strong handheld that got fucked over by bad sony decisions.
>>498692253wait you cant play regicide from new game even after beating the game?
>>498725415We're not getting any sequels until they milk it enough to where people forgot what the original even was, so he can do it again and claim it's original ideas.
metaphor 2 will be the true atlus rpg
are there demon negotiations and (subtle) romance in this game?
>>498726341demon negotiations, no.subtle romance, one or two characters.
Hulkenberg likes the taste of my worm
>>498725795No it's NG+ only. Which sucks.
jesus christ the mustari island song is SHIT it feels like im going insane
>>498692253The archetypes are locked until you max them again. I don't think it's that big of a deal as long as it resets equipment. I'll probably just play NG+ because there's a superboss tied to that mode.
>>498724650thats called SMT bro
To restore mp while dungeon crawling, I either put shield blessing on those that know it or put on mp regen gear for those that don't, and then just pass turn in a random fight until the enemy is about to wake from stun, then run and repeatIs there a better way to regen mp out in the field?

>>498727906Recruited Junah, but haven't unlocked her class yetMage passive is what I was using until I realized that I could probably do something a little quicker than just resetting a dungeon for the smaller mooksDidn't realize I could steal mp items off of butterflies, will have to keep that in mind the next time I see them.
>>498728045the junah passive im talking about comes from her social link not her achetypes skill
>>49872803730 hey you're the same age as me
>>498725795>>498727142Yeah, you have to edit a save file to get a fresh NG on it. Or you can download a save off the Steam forums. Really enjoying it, it's pretty much what I wanted Hard to be.
>>498728130Oh!I saw Masked Revelry and assumed that's what you were talking aboutGood to know that she's the mp battery of the group
I just reached Altabury. I don't want this game to end bros...
>>498728236you still have quite a ways to go anon
>>498728214I'm probably going to just go with NG+ on my save. I might get rid of my equipment if they keep it but I don't want to grind for archetypes.
>>498728362Oh that's good to hear. I thought the opera was the endgame.
Why in the fuck does planting a single seed take a whole half-dayWhy in the fuck does COOKING A SINGLE MEAL take a whole half-day?????
>>498728236That's why I made it super hard for myself so it wouldn't end so quickly, stupid frog poster-kun.
>>498728374Distributing those resources is half the fun for me, so I wasn't really interested. On the other hand I did want to transfer over my social stats and my money since it's nice to not have to think about those things, but oh well. I could cheat it in but I can't be assed.
>>498728662>Why in the fuck does COOKING A SINGLE MEAL take a whole half-day?????your maria social link bro? agree about the plant thing though, shouldve had it been a Nueras social link upgrade
>>498728715I just don't find it fun and it lets me pick new classes with my characters. Unlike most persona games and SMT. Archetypes are going to be locked until you get the link up again so balance wise it should be fine.
does the attack stat on weapons effect skill/spell damage? first atlus game ive played, i assume yes?
>>498728737Planting being free would give way too much free AEXP
>>498728819Nah, the stats, passives and instant access to all skills makes it easier than NG Hard.
>>498728861>does the attack stat on weapons effect skill/spell damage?Yes
>>498728895Maybe, we'll see.
>>498728872just limit it to 1 time per day just like cooking and only useable while on a trip
>>498727981Facts, im 20.
>>498728872>1000AEXP>1500 if you have that level 7 bond bonus fruitThat's basically nothing for having to wait an entire day to harvest, you get like 10x this by just running an appropriately leveled dungeon
I like the dubbed voices
>Virga Island is referred to as the island of the World Tree at some point>All the Etrian Odyssey shop names>Lost “DRAKONGRACE” ShinjukuI have only just beat the 4th dungeon so I’m far from seeing all this game’s twists and the like, but from this information alone my fellow EO bros can agree that the Euchronia Yggdrasil is canon, possibly making Metaphor’s setting an alternate timeline of EO’s? The Etrian DLC outfits even suggest something like this, specifically the line “one might mistake them as Euchronian” that is omitted in all of the SMT/Persona outfits
>>498729249You are banned.
>>498729105The hero fruit seeds are worthless, but you can get higher tier seeds that grow the 3000 A-EXP jeweled roots.
>>498729249i like most except Basilio and Catherina, way too strong of accents. ill play JP in my 2nd playthrough
>>498729249NOOO GET OUTI'll probably check it out on ng+ and switch back over if I don't like it
>>498729339Thats interesting because I dont like Catherina's but i feel like Basilio does his bit well.
>>498729249Heismay's VA is so soothing
>>498729297Metaphor is a celebration of all of Atlus's franchises.
Just finished the game. It's my favorite Atlus game to date, I liked it even more than DDS or SJ. The final dungeon and boss were pretty greatI hope the potential new sequels can live up to this.
Every single time I interact with Roger, he simply drops facts and basically is correct in every single way. If I were to become king, I would have him as an advisor.
>>498729514when i saw some of the promo stuff with him in it i was worried they turn him into a cutesy high pitched character, thank fuck they didnt. one of the best characters in any atlus game
metaphor tactica
>LICENSE TO DRIVE A GAUNTLET RUNNER?! >WHAT'S NEXT, A LICENSE TO TOAST PARIPUSES WITH YOUR OWN IGNITER?!based Roger
>>498729732you and most people who first saw him. I guess people are traumatized by Teddie, Nopons and Morgana.
Middle of July, how are my virtues looking? Am on a good pace for max or am I boned?
>>498729339thats exactly why I like them, im glad Atlus had the balls to go full on Xenoblade british instead of the faggy ff16 voice acting where everyone somehow had the same accent
>>498729862stop focusing on courage and wisdom, you'll get them naturally through doing dungeons and clearing content and I think you're good. Also read all the books you can get.
>>498729785this, but unironicallyfuck licenses and fuck pipingas particularly the ones that beat Heismay's kid to death
>steal from mob>escape>repeat kinda broken innit?
>>498730053Considering how low the escape rate is, no
The Devourer of Stars is a terrible fight
>>498730157ur bardon social link bro???
>>498730157>he doesnt know about bardons bond ability
>>498730157>he doesn't know
>>498730157Does he know?
Eupha feels like a persona character
>>498729585I’m aware of that, and a few late game spoilers that I won’t mention but support your statement, but what I’m getting at is that when you see Summoner’s research file it emphasizes the phrase “faraway world” or something to the same effect when describing where the technique originates from, same with Masked Dancer iirc. But there’s no such phrasing for the game’s biggest EO reference on the contrary, Eht Ria is christened in the main story in the least subtle name drop since FFXVI. Granted, most of this is pure cope with no updates on EO NEXT or even word of a new HD collection, but it doesn’t seem unreasonable to say that Metaphor canonized the Etrian Yggdrasil in the MegaTen universe (no I won’t count PQ’s superboss that was supposed to tease EO3U)
>>498730216It's not that bad. Limit your buffs and debuffs and it won't go sicko mode on your ass.
Is there a meaning to Heismay's insignia on his back? It looks like a cross that was later changed to a 4 or some other similar symbol. If this was explained I definitely missed it.
>>498730847persona 4 remake confirmation
>>4987308474th party member
>>498730847number of paripus he's killed to avenge his son
you guys think Junah would let you cum on her forehead?
people are saying the game is woke but the devs are calling all humans Homo?
Are the two islands around virga permanently in scorching heat? I keep holding off eupha's episode because of it but it's been a full week.
WOOOOOOOOOOOO LET'S PLAY SOME FUCKING BLITZBALL YEAAAHHHHHHH!!!!
>plays metaphor once
>>498731467yes, you can save the tower for after you can an ability to make weather clear, or do them as is for more exp
>>498731580literally who?
get that rat off my screen
>>498731647lol, I know they warned me of the heat but I thought they were telling me to wait
Why does Eupha say Jack Frost and Cerberus so weird
>>498729862If you pump them by 1 level each time you reach a new town you are in good shape.
I bet she...
>>498731729the tower is always bad weather unless you force it clear, the place for junahs quest does change though
>>498731859Best girl
>>498731859hamtaro lookin ahh
atlus has made better games desu
>>498729862Better than mine. My tolerance is better but you are higher in about everything else.
So who would voice Heismay in the film adaptation and why is it Antonio Banderas?
>>498730157bro arent you doing your Bardon bond ASAP?
>>498731859fucks middle aged Ishkian men
Lol this almost seems like a bug, I've never seen the game called the protagonist just "Protagonist" anywhere else. I'm no programmer but is this not just where you'd call the stored protagonist's given name?
>>498732510>>498732510>>498732510new thread
>>498731859considering how all the tribes are sexually compatible with each other, imagine the half breed babies
>>498730008They dindu nuffin.
>>498732765>noooo don't make me test the fancy new igniters that give me eternal youth aaaa i'm going insanedo paripus really?
>>498728374Yeah if i do it someday gonna sell my gear and use some unusual archetype setups.Like swapping everyone out of their default ones asap and ignore the ultimate jobs for challenge.
