Time marches on, and the age of a new king draws nearer.
Junah, Will's (our) beloved
Reminder to all cunnysseurs that Maria is half-rhoag which means that she's gonna look like this the moment puberty strikes
>>499604561how does will even fuck a dollI know the reason Retardera isn't shitting and pissing themselves over it is because they will probably never get that far in the game

What's the top 3 or 5 non royal classes???1. Merchant/Tycoon2. Faker/Trickster3. Samurai4. Seeker line5. Mage lineOpinion??
>>499604740Our wife
Hard difficulty. About to go smack the shit out of Louis with Trial of the Seeker. Anything I'm missing or should swap out?
>>499604794>mage yeah just ahead and kys
>>499604740Why is her ass talking
>>499604987Mage line you retard meaning Element Master and Warlock (Warlock is probably better desu)I put Seeker above Mage because he has a pierce extreme wind skill and attack defense +2 each buff, inherit hyper on seeker tier 3 and its literally a better magic class.

>>499605402I wouldn't
My iq is too low for this door puzzle in the avatar. how do you get the bonus chests.
>>499605402Neither of them like Will romantically.
>>499605353Just because your brain has trouble being creative in a color matching video game anon doesn't mean you should project that onto everyone
>counter and magic counter stack with omni counterAre you sure?
>>499605753Not at all.

Just made to Altabury is there much left anons? I'm liking the game so far but I'm getting kinda tired of the dungeons/side dungeons
>>499605654Beat the boss and walk normally
>>499606068In about 30 minutes the game will start going at a breakneck pace and never stop until you finish it.
>>499606068The final chapter is pretty long
>>499606068you got about 20-30 hours left big dawg especially if you're going for all sidequests
The skybound avatar track is a jam
>>499606227not him but I'm at the same place and while I don't want to rush, I was hoping to play some Red Dead Undead Nightmare on Halloween. I'd better get my ass in gear
MAG is tight so I am using Junah on bosses as mostly debuffs, what's the best for random battles? Go for the mage line, or the summoner line?
>Hulkenberg starts lusting after the MC if she's charmedMUH

This abandoned mine mini dungeon just wrecked my shit for the past hour.The fat enemies are just so tanky and they can just decide to double mamudo which insta kills healers. the treasure boxes were so strong just 2 hitting backline guarding knight, criting aoe and hitting weakness as well.The big treasure box was the biggest pain in the ass, reset until i crit with warrior, healer hama and igniter hama, highroll slicer, money shot, knight taunt and repeat, reset if all sleep.I feel like i entered this dungeon too early
>>499611306
>>499611548bro is your GPU dying
>>499609517Utilitarian on Junah, Heismay. Synthesis cost/damage boost on MC+4 turn from Princemasquerade chargeVidyarthaFormation of Vigorwind weak dance from JunahHeismay Dragoon severe pierce synthesis that ignores resistancesWind Sword synthesis MC to hit weaknessKilled him turn 1 with this on hard at level 60 when I got sick of his shit.
>>499611548>He didn't buy the informant's infoMimics only attack every other turn if you use Merchant attacks and the skeleton enemies are weak to Strike and Light, exploit these weaknesses and the level gap shouldn't matter
>>499611548merchants could stun the mimics
>>499611548Just don't use healer. It is unfortunately a garbage archetype because so many enemies use strike or darkness. Picking an archetype lineup for their defenses is as important as picking them for their skills.Also use merchant or inherit the attack to make chests waste half their turns.
>>499611548just go smack some trash mobs for a little while and level up
>>499605402It just occured to me, is there anything about the Rhoag being tall? I don't remember any others being exceptionally large. The Roussainte are naturally tall so Hulkenburg is normal. Is Brigitta a true giantess?
Vagina bones
Playing this game makes me want to kill myself.
>>499611819>>499611801>>499611835I did use the merchant coin skill >money shotAlso sucks having to sac my mc as a flex cause i dont want to class change my other characters yet
so a bunch of really dumb people pretending to be allied to the person they want to kill didn't work out and they even got spotted testing the lance I love the game but holy FUCK is this group of people the dumbest heroes ever. It's like playing a Mr. Magoo JRPG. Dumb luck and plot armor carry the day
>tell myself I'll customize after a few more levels>and social links>and dungeons>just got to the Mage Academy and I still haven't customizedBros, I rolled the game just leveling everyone as their baseline classes. I'm so let down.
>>499612623>El ViktorI mean, STR MC is the best person to use it anyways. You'll get two good dungeons out of the coin toss before it falls off a cliff, but then you'll always have max merchant ready to swap to to farm money.
My proudest win so far... those 8+ hours of grinding paid off.
boy howdy you weren't kidding, anon. Faker's Vidyartha into Debilitate just ruins bosses. I don't even use her charge
>>499612909talking about Junah, obviously. I guess that's a good reason to make someone else the Faker, but eh. It works and hard isn't so hard.
>>499606606I need someone to link it
>>499612909Hey I was the anon that sent that strat earlier, yeah it's retarded, bosses refuse to use dekunda and even if they do it only takes 2 moves to get them at least -7 again, and they're cheap as well. I was expecting debilitate to cost like 50MP, but nope, only 24.
>>499612909You can do both if you give yourself extra turns
>>499613154true
>>499613154>just reset until it worksDEVILISH
I haven't played Etrian Odyssey, but if I'm understanding things correctly, the world got hit by a grey goo, right?They describe magla as being some emotionally-driven power innate to everyone that's inescapable, and we've seen what is obviously technology left behind by the elda/old humankind, like the CD found that was described as having magla circuits on it, which would imply that magla is a form of technology, right? Like some sort of all-consuming nanomachine swarm?
>>499613521I have no idea where you got that from.It's just a regular CD, they're just confused because they don't know what the fuck it is
>>499613521>>499613716Anyone have a listing of all the items?I found the CD, plastic, busses which are sort of sitting there out in the open and gun.Wish we got to explore more ruins though, reminded me of the mall in NieR Automata. Which makes me wish there was more than just items to pick up and do nothing with.
>>499613716I wish I had the dialogue handy but I specifically remember Strohl mentioning that the CD was infused with magla or something along those lines.
>>499614192I gotchu
>>499614539Lmao heismay at the end there
I just marathoned both P4G and P5R, and I want more. Metaphor or SMTV:V?
>>499614803If you want more Persona-esque plot, Metaphor. If you want more focus on turn based combat, SMTVV.
>>499614803Having played both I think Metaphor is the better game overall, but I lean to story personally is why I think that. SMTVV has much better combat that I got bored of way less quickly, and way better exploration and traversal of environments. Story still kinda sucks dongs, though.
>>499615083I think SMTVV is much better, because i don't give a shit about story.
>>499615083>>499615276i like a good story but I think metaphor's (while acceptable) isn't great. i haven't got far tho (just killed babby)enjoying metaphor a lot so far tho and haven't played any other atlus games so I wonder if i'd like SMTVV since bad story vs. bad story isn't a big difference
>>499614893>>499615083Metaphor does have demons/fusion, right?
>>499615808No
>>499615808No, that's the whole point of the game.And because of that, enemy variety is lacking compared to 20 years of demon designs.
>>499615083>>499615276>>499615498I actually liked Metaphor's gameplay more than SMTV's. SMTV felt like more of the same when it came to mainline press turn, while Metaphor felt more different with the archetype system, different skills, rows, synthesis attacks, etc.>>499615808>Metaphor does have demons/fusion, right?In a sense, but not as a major gameplay mechanic.
>>499613521EO and Metaphor largely don't line up right despite all the references. In EO it was just pollution
>>499615839>>499615856Ok nevermind I'm just gonna get SMTVV
>>499615928Get metaphor on sale or potentially when the extended edition comes out.
>>499604719thats not how it works. rhoags just dont age after 80, they dont look 80 after they hit puberty.
Should have known I couldn’t rely on these guysThough knowing this game so far my “choice” would have amounted to nothing but different internal dialogue
>>499616478right after that>should we tell batman?>it'd be a risk...>berg says it's ok so I guess it's settledwhy are there dialogue options and why is MC masqueraded as a "leader"? bro's choices don't matter at all
>>499616717This is the same problem with persona 5 lmao
>>499615856>yeah retard, this game has no enemy variety>play this game that has been using the literal exact same designs for the past 35 years instead
>>499615890>while Metaphor felt more differentIt starts off that way but slowly loses it's shine over time. It worked best when bosses had a lot of unique aspects and you really had to mess around with archetypes for each fight. After a while it becomes the same buff the main attack, but with bosses who can't take a hit. It actually lost some improvements press turn has had for a while, and a lot of synth attacks are just things you'd normally have access to. Meanwhile you can play late VV straight or take advantage of all the weird little things like demon traits. There was a focus in VV to make demons more unique and it worked. You can break that game but it takes some big set up. Archetypes didn't end up feeling that special to me. Not restricted and distinct enough each feels super special, just a few stand outs. Nor so open you can go in and do crazy builds.>>499615498I don't think VV has a bad story, it's just different from what many typically expect from a JRPG. It's more about the arguments characters are having, than a constant series of events.
>>499616917>LMAO!!!!Shut your faggot ass up.
>>499616976he didn't say that thoshut your faggot ass up
>>499616717because hes not the leader, you retard. hes the captain on the field, as hes the strongest and most proficient when it comes to archetypes, but even back in the mines (and from the start of the journey, in fact) gallica/grius/strohl have been calling the shots. hes essentially the team mascot except the mascot is the best at using guns
>>499615808It has a job system with skill inheritance so you can combine up to 4 skill slots from any class you've learned. Sorta a combination of 3's Magatama system and DDS "pick whatever the fuck you want to slot in as long as you've learned it" system for every party member.
>>499617035oh well excuse me for being a retardi thought they were asking me things for a reason not just to be condescending assholes
>>499617070God I hope they commit to Metaphor as a third pillar and we get more games with more advanced archetype systems. I like Job systems so much more than creature collectors. I genuinely dread the fact Persona 6 will be out before a Metaphor 2 because im so fucking sick of demon fusion
>>499617101>hey, should we tell this guy this thing?>well, i dont think i should be the only one who gets to decide, how does everyone else feel?>*everyone else in the party thinks we should tell him*>"ok, lets tell him"what is the problem you esl tard
>>499617268>>well, i dont think i should be the only one who gets to decide, how does everyone else feel?who are you quotingall i said was "it'd be a risk..." and then suddenly it was settled with no further input from me>>499617268>esl tardliteral projection wrt one of those two
>>499617339>replying to the same post twiceholy fuck youre retarded.you didnt say itd be a risk, you said "I dont think the decision should fall to me alone", which, if you werent esl or autistically oblivious to subtext, clearly fucking means "it depends on what everyone else thinks".
>>499617016>heYou mean your faggot ass. Stop pretending to be other people.
>>499617505you are a dumb nigger with no reading comprehensionthose are two different scenarios>>499617526meds
>>499617550>indian who learned english in night school calling someone a dumb niggerkekw
>>499617604>gutless retard can't acknowledge when he's wrongthat's how i know you've never gone through university or done anything else that involves actual learning
>>499617147I hope for Metaphor 2 as well. I don't mind demon fusion, but I am so autismo that I have to make sure I am making the perfect min/maxxed demon that probably 1/4 of my time in SMTV was in cathedral of shadows. Persona I don't have to get that autistic because its only for the protagonist and you can swap between them with no issuesGranted I did have some of that problem with Metaphor. I breezed through Hard with next to no grinding only because I stared at the archetype screen and thinking out perfect character skill sets and formations for probably 15 hours of my 90 hour playthrough.
>>499617663do not redeem
Oh no, we triggered the Personigger.Abandon thread, run for your life, flee
>>499617729The wild card bullshit really pisses me offThe amount of cool character building opportunities I can think of if like, every character had 3-6 wild card persona slots is through the roof but those retards at atlus just have to make the MC special
Hulkenberg never leave my party ever
So you are the prince, but not really, but actually you are sort of a prince, but not actually the same prince , you're an ideal version of a prince that is now dead and took over his body so now you are the new prince, but everything is your own are no traces of the old prince who is now deadAm I getting it right?
I hope we get a cool DLC expansion story pack or something. But man, I'm expecting too much from Atlus. Knowing them, they will ruin the plot even further by adding an additional waifu to the game.
>>499618389Yea why do you even need another waifu when Galica is enough
>>499618110You're the prince who willed his OC donut steel with sheer force of autism alone.
>>499618446Yeah well tell that to Atlus
Whos the Aigis of this game?
>>499618557Me*violently suck your dick*
>wanted to finish the game today>I can already tell I'm going to be running circles in the final dungeon for 10 more hours just to watch numbers go up.I don't know what it feels like to wear a chastity cage, but I expect this is what it feels like to have one taken off.

SMT 4 still has the best setting out of all atlus games desuThis game has a very generic JRPG world
>>499620139>tokyonothing can be more generic than that
>>499620139>literally tokyowhat are you smoking?
>>499620139>doood what if the fantasy setting was actually atop the real world?!?EO did it earlier and better
Is extreme higher than severe?
>>499620454no
>>499620454Maybe
>>499620454idk
>decide to go a magic build this time since I always go str in SMT>The fucking Prince archetype is str-basedLike God parting the clouds on your darkest moment, this is a sign from Atlus telling me to never stray from the one true path ever again
Would you a fairy?
>>499620761Yes, I would sniff her anus indeed.
>>499620139Shame about apolcapyse
i feel like an alien. i always go magic in smt/persona
>>499620491Off topic, but I see that image once every 2 or 3 years and it kills me every time. My good friend owns his own business and got a cheap business card printer. He was messing around with it to figure out 2 side printing and put that on the back to make sure it was working.
So what are Heismay's best archetypes to level?
>>499621514Seeker, knight, magic knight, commander, merchant, tycoon, gunner, sniper, dragoon, thief, assassin, ninja
>>499620886I can't believe how much of a downgrade Apocalypse is and I initially believed people on this website that it was one of the best>retcons 4's ending>character assassinates everyone from 4>reuses map and areas>reuses soundtrack>horrible, unlikable cast members>removes law/neutral/chaos mechanicBut, uhhhh, I guess I don't die unfairly to smirk over the course of an entire playthrough of a game where I can save anywhere. Never got the smirk wipe complaints anyway.
>>499621514He's useless as anything other than faker with steal.
>>499621514Yes
>>499621514Minor spoiler for late game mechanic. Heismay unfairly needs an insane amount of class progress for his unique archetype compared to other characters. He needs Ninja, Dragoon, and Tycoon but all those have additional requirements along the way like magic knight for dragoon which in turn needs mage If you don't want to read this just level the ones the first response said.
>large MP recovery>just 6 mp
>>499622225Yeah I was just looking into that, that's crazy. I guess i'll level up gunner alongside thief for now.
So why is Gallica not a true party member? It's not like her fairy form matters if she transforms into a huge archetype. I know they are magical beings and whatnot, just rewrite so they are another tribe. This would fix the issue of not having a dedicated magic party member until Junah 30+ hours into the game and not having a 4th party member for what feels like a super long time compared to P4 and P5.
>>499622380Silver-lining is its arguably the best class in the game and with all the varied progress in other lineages, he has a great pool of inherited skills to use off the bat. I actually really liked gunner on him because he's frail and not that strong so I kept him in the back row anyway as a support.
>>499622740>to use off the bat.
>>499622740Use for what?His str is garbage. His mag is garbage. He's only good for agilityForget about dealing any kind of damage with his useless ass. He's there to steal, debuff and maybe cheese with evades.
“here’s your not!Igor and absolutely not!Velvet Room fuckers”
So does Magi Counter, Counter, and Omni Counter all stack or no??
>>499623861i feel like it stacks and thats all that matters. not like i ever needed other trait slots on hulkenburg anyway
>Forgot to take a shitNNYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MY +1 LUCK
>>499623861They don't stack with omni
>>499623861They stack.
>>499623861They may or may not stack.
>>499613521It's basically the warp from Warhammer Fantasy/40k where all magic is powered by intense negative emotions and can also mutate you into mindless creatures

>>499624410Why does she still wear the headband with the witch hat
I love this game. I wish reality was a fantasy instead.
What's the best order to tackle the final month?
>>499624707its hard for her to adjust her glamors like that
>>499624869>whatever your remaining bonds are and the non dragon tower side dungeons>skybound avatar>dragon towers
>>499624972So dread doesn't count as bad weather that fucks up your press turns?
>>499624886It's not part of her magic glamor, it's a physical thing she wears which is why you can see it around her neck.
>Strohl has a plan for the opera house oh no
>>499625101still no porn :(
>>499625095No, dread is the new normal. Blight is the bad weather
>>499618110You're his fantasy.The prince got to live a second life thanks to reading the adventures narrated in the book. It's a metaphor.
>>499624410Junah, our wife, please calm down....
>>499625146That section of the game may as well have a big flashing sign on it saying "content was cut here" so please forgive Strohl for having to bail the writers out of doing 10 hours of plot progression in 45 minutes
>>499625239A metaphor for what??!
>>499625350The power of fantasy!!!
>>499625294well I mean this crew is dumber than the Scooby Doo gang because they at least solve mysteries in the end so it's not like utter retardation hasn't been on the menu so far all along anyways
>>499625512But what about video gams? Playing a dude disguised as another dude is like living a triple life innit?
>>499625146Strohl is the single brain cell of the group
>>499625538>whole mystery is solved because a character from the beginning remembers a detail at the very endnobody is dumber than that group
How do I unlock Bas's social link?
making my guess now, will see if it's correct after the Opera which will probably not be as kino as fighting Ultros 4D Chess Ultra Mastermind Louie the XIII pins the killing of Fordsex on MC and crew, the rating that's been frozen at 9 even though it makes the level up sound and has been pissing me off because it's story locked will drop a lot and we'll enter our 'crisis arc'no matter how wrong I am an hour from now, I wrote it down so I can't backpedal
>>499625742If I remember right, just find him on the bottom deck of the runner while you're travelling anywhere.
>>499625853see you in 2 hours, anon
>>499625617Yeah I think it refers to fantasy in general, regardless of the media. Even if you life sucks and you are about to die because the pope hates you, you can use fiction and fantasy to live adventures and help you deal with your anxiety.Or at least that's what it think is trying to say.

>>499626764I am but it's not doing anything
>>499626704Wait don't tell me you can't do solo
The game won't let you remove party members until Eupha join you, you can only mess around with formation until then..

I lowkey wishing the prince go full ham with his OC donut steel, like having a character with 9 wings each represents the tribe and having every tribe characteristics into one character. Imagine Will having a bat wing, tail, horn, tatoo, third eye, bug eye on one side, knife ears, and other shit.
>>499627821annnnnnnnnnd Strohl beefed it
Basil and Fido are Oasis
I got to the final 30 days and I don't feel like playing.I just know it's going to be forset, ruins, tower repeated all over again, with the same enemies.
Alright guys, I'll see you later. Edeni is taking me on a boat ride, he says the ocean is beautiful at night!
What's the point of Almighty mag if Almighty phys can crit?
>>499628641aoe
why do they trust the Prince so much when he didnt even do anything in the game
>>499628641In case you made a mag build? Also "can crit" means fucking nothing unless you restart like a moron and keep fishing for crits.
>Junah is a singer>finally joins the party>masked DANCER????????????????????? where the fuck is the bard archetype. you're telling me there was a masked dancing king in the past but never a musician king??
>>499628641>hes playing a game with non-crit magicSMTchads win again
>>499628679Because he's "royalty" and Japs bow down to authority and bloodline status.Even now they have a class system.
>>499628641Atlus games are all about one thing
>>499628790so do Brits and Canadians? Also, the only time Mexico wasn't a shithole was under an emperor.
>>499628717REPPU :DDD
>>499628679Sleeping beauty can stay asleep he hasn’t saved the country like me he is not getting the chance to marry the lovely racist clemar npc
>>499628717its for the kino PERSONA reference bro. you wouldn't get it bro. its sophisticated.
>>499628839t. Maximilian
>>499628839No they don't.Western people now don't treat you like shit because you grandpa was a peasant. In Asian countries family name matters a lot. If you came from a "shit" family, you are literally not given any opportunities.
9/10-9/12 is about half a games worth of shit. Pacing is crazy.
>>499628957lmao my man, I lived and worked in Japan for yearsYou watch too much fucking animeYes, powerful families, rich families, and political family names carry weight but not more so in the states and maybe less so because they just can't buy off a court pubicly like they can in the US
>>499629092Foreigners are treated differently. You will never be Japanese.
>>499629040I just saved on the night of 9/10. I have wagie cagie time in 5 hours so I think I should go to bed. I do want to see how Strohl's completely retarded decision to not just fucking pick up the goddamn lance and run fucks us in the ass though
>I can't pull back the spear because uhhhhhhhhhhhhYOU HAD ONE JOB
>>499629092>just can't buy off a court pubicly like they can in the USYeah instead they invite you do "dinner" and covertly buy you off.99% conviction rate my ass.
>>499629092I fully agree that the US justice system isn't a leading example, but let's not pretend the Japaneses are doing it any better, it's a joke.
>>499629172stop getting your info from manga, retard bro. Your "samurai name" means jack fucking dick and shit in modern Japan. You WILL work the overtime, Mr. family of retainers.
>>499629240Her job was to launch it, which she did
>group of baka aho gaijin think they will ever understand what it means to be glorious nipponese
>>499629249Texas has an 84% conviction rate. Federal court in the US is 90%.99% means nothing compared to those numbers when you consider how less often the Japanese bring charges than we do.Do not misconstrue this as holding their system up; they have a lot of issues. They just have less than us in some important areas (and more in others). >t. work in domestic and foreign real estate law
>>499629413I love this strawman whenever it's trotted out but you don't have to be Nihonjin to not be a retard.
>>499629267Your "samurai name" is what got you the interview to that high profile company in the first place, retard.I never said about what happens after you got the job.
>>499629494>Your "samurai name" is what got you the interview to that high profile company in the first placenigga is reading 1950's anime lmao
>>499629494No, not really. Rich families are the ones that matter and they came from merchant and industrial lineages especially post WW2.
>>499629527>reading animeYou must be one from one of those low class families.
>>499629587the fact that you think "My great great great great grandfather was a retainer to Lord Buttafucko, give me a raise!" is how shit works in Japan is the stupidest shit I've read on this website that is full of stupid shit daily. Congrats, retardbro!
>>499629584Same shit. Most are one and the same. I didn't bring up "samurai names", other anon did.The class system is obviously financial, except in western countries you can come from nothing and reach the top. Not in Asian countries.
Iwao Hakamada spent 46 years in death row slowly loosing his mind after the Japanese police force kept him confined for more than 20 days while denying him the rights for water and beating him up to force him to confess a mass murder he did not commit, he was convicted because one of the three judge overseeing his case didn't had the balls to speak up when he came to the conclusion that his confession report was bullshit.
>>499629774At least he didn't lose face
>>499629720>except in western countries you can come from nothing and reach the top. Not in Asian countries.LOL why do they have a word for new money then, retard?Yoshiko Shinohara, bro?Momofuku Ando, BRO?Just fucking google "top 50 richest families" in Japan and see how many of them are nouveau riche. Where the FUCK do you guys get your hilariously wrong Japan info from? /v/?
>>499629774wanna guess how many Tyrones in the US are in the same position? It's a lot more, but you don't care because they're black
>>499629949>a bunch of old fartsYes most made their fortunes after WW2 or during the 80 when the west invested in them. After WW2 nobody had any fucking money left so most had an equal start.Let's see you do that today.
>>499629224it's so fucking infuriating he was like NO WE CAN'T BECAUSE UHHHHHHHHHand then the very next dayhe fucking runs on stage to try to get it back in front of all the people he was worried about beforelike this is just shit writing. I want Fourdicks to win at this point.
Strohls sharply increases synthesis cost and damage is actually triple. Stonecleaver now costs 66mp and also does at minimum 15-20k without crit and 60k+ with crit. Kind of insane that a purple weapon is better than his gold ultimate weapon, I wonder if the other classes have a similar gimmick weapon.
>>499630128so like the US and all the other western countries with massive wealth inequality today? Okay, glad we cleared it up it's exactly the same.
Japanese prosecutors are not obligated to present all evidences to court, that is to say, they are completely free to nitpick any evidence that can point toward the defandant's guilt and discard any that might not. A common example is DNA, if a knife that was used in a crime have, say, 3 sets of fingerprints on it, the prosecutor is completely free to say "the defandant's fingerprints were found on the knife" over "the knife had fingerprints belonging to three people, one of which is the defandant."
>>499630317There are plenty of recent rags to riches stories in the west.So no, it's not like that.
>>499630368big if true
>>499630393don't look up start ups or successful doujinshi circles in Japan bro, it'll make you look retarded
>>499629987>Tyrone>confessingThat's how I know your statistic is completely made up
>>499630590I didn't state a statistic. I told you to guess, because it's easy to look up estimates but you don't want to know, you just want to pretend it doesn't happen here.
>>499630536>successfulit's pocket change
Sure is some good metaphor discussion up in here
>>499630707That's because morons here keep acting as if media isn't a reflection of the creator's own culture.
>>499630684>it d..doesn't count because uh...it's only rags to riches at an amount I sayType Moon money is pocket change? One of the best start up countries in the world isn't good for start ups? Thanks for the cope, I guess. At least you folded like a bitch early.
What do we think of the story? I think its quite awful tbhwyfam
>>499630839Type moon isn't a single person.
>>499630790this. i'm so glad those japanese did a good of reflecting their own medieval central european culture, with their prominent displaces of british, germanic and spanish design, culture and architecture throughout metaphor.
But what's the MC canon build?
>>499630839>be a failing shit company until they make a scummy gacha game supported by rich whales.Might as well be charity, like giving money to a homeless guy.
>>499631027Magic of course. Eldans use evil magics canonically
>>499630939>rags to riches only count when there is one personAh, refreshing Cope-a-cola classicit was two
>>499631069>be a failing shit companynow you're coping more than the guy who spams these threads who said Metaphor was going to flop LOL Need a tissue, bro?
>>499630987>medievalMetaphor is nowhere close to medieval, moron. it's 19th century at earliest, at which point Japan was full of western style buildings, yes.
>>499631165same shit
>>499631027I regret falling for the STR build memeI am using MC as a buff slave most of the game thanks to how broken Merchant is I think he should main Agility and Endurance
>>499631027Magic. The MC is literally a chunk of walking magic himself.
>>499631217Merchant sucks cocks except for money farming and you can slap the money attack on jobs with more damage for when you need itTycoon is way better
>>499631215Me on the right
MC canon build is agility because you can't ride a sword without it
>>499631146Nobody cared about your badly drawn gay porno VNs until the gacha game.
>>499631217What? Merchant then Tycoon's attack skill is one of the main reasons why it's a good iead to play STR MC, the fuck he's gonna do with END?
>>499631217Clumsy autistic sex with Marie
So the moral of the story is deluding yourself with fantasy can turn it into reality and make your oc real so it can do what you want for you
>>499631378>millionaires don't count unless I say they doricher than sin before the gacha how long you want to sob and cry for me, little guy? You said some retarded ass shit, own it and let it go.
>>499631273Thanks for the spoiler
>>499631217But merchant scales with str
>canon name is "Will"I can't believe I didn't piece it together, damn that's clever
>>499628083rape
SPOILERS: HULK EATS BUGS
>>499631448yeah but usually you have to be near death for it to work
>>499631482Next time don't try to start your ironic shitposting like you did yesterday.
>>499630184Forden wasn't an enemy until he messed up and Hulkenberg realized it later that nightAt the point where they left him the lance they had won, Louis was dead, the goal was not to win the election or become king, it was just kill Louis.
>>499631590???you must have mistaken me for another anon
>>499629252I heard they even bring parrots to the witness stand during trials.
>>499631503Because western names mean jack shit and Japs LOVE to give names a shitload of meanings via different kanjis that can be read in 50000 different ways.
>>499631448The moral is to allow yourself to dream :)
>>499631503Also>"Fantasy is Dead" when you die
>that retard who said the MC has a canon build and it's magic because the glossary said the Church said the Elda have a "dark magic" and that's why they're persecuted >also if you went STR (the most popular stat is probably all Atlus choose your own stats games) you were a cheateroh i am laffin
Spoiler: Catherina has a big steamy bush
>>499631702Two schizos have been arguing non-stop like retards about which build is canon. Sorry you had to meet one of those imbeciles, this isn't a good place to argue about the game if you haven't finished it yet.
>>499631817Who are you quoting retard?
>>499631887He's obviously quoting me.
>>499631887is it you? Are the retard? HAHA oh man, I busted a gut last night. What retardation do you have the menu for us tonight, you autistic fuck?
What's the strongest move on the MC's royal archetype, is it physical or Magic? Whichever it is, that's the canon build.
>fatlus realized huge forehead is a debuff if it's not a loli>but you see her loli form for 4 seconds>it's almost toddler sized compared to mariaWew
>canon buildThat's not the point of these games
>>499631964What the fuck are you on about schizo?
>>499631981it's STR but if you know that then you LOOKED AT A GUIDE AND CHEATED YOU SICK FUCK
>>499631881I know. I was here yesterday to see that unfold. I was here when this general began, always lurking.
>>499632018>it's STRAlright cool, thanks for answering.
canon archetype has both magic and physical skillscanon build is to max both STR and MAG
>>499632017>n..no..n..not me..LOL, I get it though, that was embarrassing. I'd pretend to be someone else too but I probably wouldn't reply to defend 'him' so angrily. Too obvious.
If you think about it and squint your eyes a bit the game is basically just a Pandora Hearts game.
>>499632018But how else would you know that with 100% certainty without looking it up?Prince was supposed to be a hidden archetype.Sure you can "assume" it's like in other games, but the whole point of Metaphor was that it's not supposed to be like the other Atlus games.So you either just picked str out of habit anyway and lucked out or double checked that str is still the way to go.
>>499631714Just have magic powers bro
>>499632178>and lucked out>on a 50/50 choice because the other stats are a no-go unless you're retarded>on the stat most people go formmm hmmmmm. 1 out of 2 with favor going to one... that's like 1 to 23445234465667 odds, right?
>>499632109Meds. now.
>>499632289too obvious lil' brobut we both know you're seething
this game is Persona 3 in medieval age
>>499632273But the game gives you 2 phys archetypes at the start leaving mage for MC as the most straightforward pick since he starts out as a hybrid. And you don't get a magic character until way later in the game.
>>499632385It wishes it wasThey have nothing in common
>>499632393How would you know the game only gives you two STR people for a long time unless you looked it up?:^)
>game's message is all about not letting birth, tribe, or what others think of you decide your fate and shaping yourself to be what you most want to be>arguing that ANY build is canonHas someone created a term for arguing against the point of a story within the context of the story yet?
>>499632462You get hulk and strohl within 2 hours in the demo.
>>499632462OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH
>>499632526and you have no idea that someone is going to die. And you have no idea how long you'll have them or whom you get next. And you'll have gained like 10 easy ass levels and already been pumping a stat.Admit it. You looked it up. I got you dead to rights.
>>499632514lol no the game is about one dude beating all the other dudes so he can enforce his own ideals on others under the guise that it's better for everyone else and that his way is the best way.
>>499632604MAG bros...how did this STRtard.....outsmart us....?
I heard some people here talking about a fight against a human Louis with 12 turns. How do you unlock it?
Lets get this startedShit >Brawler>Healer>Commander>Seeker>Gunner>Thief>MageGood >Merchant>Knight>Warrior>Masked Dancer>Summoner>BerserkerElder God>Faker
>>499632604It was pretty obvious since one character didn't get a special transformation scene.just like how you can tell whos' a real party member by looking up what rank 8 of each like does and if it doesn't say "special hero power" at rank 8, he isn't an active party member. I don't know why you're being so difficult instead of just saying you went str because you go str in every smt game.
>>499632713>thief>commander
You think if the prince told Hulkenberg he needed training to take a royal consort she would... you know...
>>499632514>Fated to be king from birth because he's the product of the lovemaking between the two most powerful beings in the land>Ends up as king ???
>>499630296>triple damageTycoon has triple gold cost weapon named fortune god abacus, meanwhile the ultimate weapon named fortune abacus only eliminates gold cost. Kinda wierd
how well did this game do compared to p5
>>499632970it didn't
When Bas joins up is he going to be a permanent member for the last leg of the game? I don't want to dump these 99 leaves I've been saving into him to have him take off because I saw people saw you have him for like 1 dungeon and there's no way that's all that's left
>>499632514The former king ONLY wanted you on the throne it was a sham lol
So just how much shorter is this game compared to p5?Not only P5 has like 13 months of the calendar, each week is 7 days instead of 5. Isn't it like triple the length?
>>499632990oh..................
>>499632970we won't know for a few years but it's the strongest start to any Atlus game (sold 1 million in 4 days) and it's still number 1 in sales in Japland. It's got legs for sureP5 is the Skyrim of JRPGs though so it's got years of advantage
>>499632839Yeah. By the time you got that weapon there's no way you are running out of money anytime soon
>>499633029You have him for an entire month and a bit
>>499633160time to shove him full of salad
>>499633075>longer downtime doing shitty social links >goodI wish this game didn't use the calendar system its such a chore and unfun to go throughJust let you unlock social link with characters naturally instead
>>499633029It's really 1 story dungeon plus 3 side dungeons, and 4 challenge fights, 3 of which have dungeons attached that you can technically skip if you want.If you do everything you have maybe 20-30 hours to go with bas.
>magcute girls>strall menI think we know who wins
>>499632970Not even close but p5 is an exception regarding Atlus game. Metaphor did very well, specially in asia.
>>499633508Atlus is such a sexist company
>>499633508In a fight? The men, clearly.
>>499633508Hulkenberg is a strong cute girl
>Blatantly woke game>Blatantly cut features>Blatantly shorter>Metaphor did very well in AsiaThe East has fallen
>>499618110You're the guide/force that keeps the group going and empower them when all hope and fantasy seem lost. Don't be led astray for their sake.
Should have let me rape Louis into submission
Fucking really?And nobody noticed?Is it that easy?
>>499633091>and it's still number 1 in sales in Japland.Where
>>499633834They were magical.
>>499633868Is DQ3 that good or it it just that Japs are contractually obligated from birth to like DQ?
>>499633926It's not out yet but it's the biggest jrpg franchise aside from pokemon there and they haven't gotten any news about the new mainline in years, I imagine they are starved.

This game is way too long for its own good. At the end the only thing I could think of was "please just fucking end already".
>>499635382There needs to be another story dungeon in altabury
>>499635382literally every persona game ever
>>499635201Bravo Kojima!
>>499635494What would even happen there? You'd need to rewrite a good chunk of the arc before. I think not having one there is fine.
>>499635579Just make the mage academy dungeon?
Heismay is so broken it's not even funny. The worst part is the superbosses seem to be balanced around him completely trivialiIizing mechanics.
>>499635579You could discover that the church repurposed the mages academy for their own illicit research instead of just shutting it down. This is where Forden keeps his supply of altar boys.
Why did he cheat after losing a contest of strength like he wanted?
>>499635894Because at his core he was just a manchild lashing out.
>>499635693On my regicide playthrough I'm going to try exploiting royal thief's dodge by making heismay the tank. I toyed with it towards the end but it would have required rearranging my entire party and grinding even more archetypes.
nice spoilers
I wish Atlus would put in some effort for once and not repackage the same game with a different coat of paint. This gameplay is 20 years old.
>>499617147I'm not sick of demon fusion I just have 0 faith in zoomer persona
>>499636045It's the only way to beat the late game bosses on regicide, unless you like cock and ball torture and want to bet everything on Hulk reflecting shit (it never happens)
>>499617147Persona 6 is absolutely certain to be a safe, conservative followup to 3/4/5, because they've handed it off to a new team (while the original team made this) and they're not going to risk changing anything on their first shot at it when it's now Atlus' biggest franchise.
>>499630184Are you still crying about this? You've gotten your ass handed to you like 7 times at this point
>>499633091>1 million in 4 daysIt was at 1 million on day 1
>>499635894Cheating doesn't really go against his reason for being though. Anything goes, victory through any means because anything you can leverage to win is a strength.
>>499635693yup. its like the game knew too because when i got to the louis fight it literally only ever picked heismay for that "i instakill your race" shit
>>499635104The racist clemar lady would want me dead for being a filthy human so I doubt she would care about anything I said
>>499636804*Dodges the holocaust*
>>499636151this, atlus needs to innovate and switch to action combat like Square Enix
>final dungeon theme>old man rapping hymns off rhythm this and the pagan village made me mute the game
>>499632970It will never beat P5 but I'm sure Metaphor exceeded their expectation
>>499637314Lmaooo this nigga thinks that's the final dungeon
>>499637538WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
>>499637309I'd give my firstborn child for a new Raidou game. I'm so tired of turn based stuff.
I still don’t get why Louis keeps Junah around. He suspects she’s a spy, surely it isn’t worth having her in his inner circle just for the clout he gets for hanging with a celebrity and getting to listen to her sing.
>>499638057He probably just thinks that if she becomes his downfall he just wasn't strong enough.
>>499633834Honestly can see it, if your tribe most prominent feature is to not have any features, all the easier for you to pass for another.
>>499635104No.

Would you guys be okay if they trade Eupha with Rella for the last party member?
>>499639410Yes

>>499639410No? Eupha is way cuter. And the Mustari are way more interesting culturally than the bird people.
>>499639410I'd trade the potatosack for literally any unplayable girl with a portrait because they look better.
>>499633834hiding in plain sight just like hythlodeus being more

>>499639410I'd trade Junah for Rella.
Does the baby monster ??? drop anything good if you beat him in that second evade part? He only gave a Health Incense for the first fight.
>>499644734Just another health incense. It's not a worthwhile fight unless you wanna dab on the AI
If you didn't defeat shadow baby. you didn't beat the game.
idk how some of you people got caught by the shadow baby. If you got caught by the shadow baby you need to be put down.
>>499645060>idk how some of you people got caught by the shadow babyBy jumping in his face to try and fuck him up? Worked for the dragon.
>>499645060the flying rat even hints that if you aren't a bitch you can just fight the shadow baby.
>>499639410Junah would love it
I like that they have all of the former candidates bring up genuinely good criticisms of your rule at the end. It really grounds the kinda cliche super happy ending and is in line with a lot of the themes throughout the game.
>>499639410Better replace Junah. She's the most boring party member.
Eupha's english voice actress has a beautiful voice
Did anyone already get the game script through datamining or did noone bother yet? I need it alone for a counter how often Strohl seethes about Louis
>mixed raced children are evil>yeah pretty muchdamn this game has some based takes.
>>499647659But a mixed race child is the saviour and a pureblood elda is the villain
>>499633834It is stated repeatedly that Louis isn't close to anyone, that even the whole thing with Junah was just singing and not anything physical. Just nobody got close enough to legit see it.
>>499647659The fuck did you just say about Maria?
>Gruis has unique dialogue for studying every archetype and even mentions his daughter in all of the healer line onesWas he planned to stick around at some point?

Does it look like it will? I feel like p6 teaser/trailer will overshadow it quickly if it's released in december, can it survive that?
holy shit this game is such a fucking chore
>>499652705It would be a bad look for Atlus to not support this release with the same energy that they gave to P3R. I think the game will do well and have good legs. I don't expect a P6 trailer to impact Metaphor's success.
i don't care about persona at all.
I'm truly thankful to atlus for showing me how much I hate jrpgs
>>499653764I love how many times it gives you an A or B choice and no matter what you click it picks A. Truely a game for big brain gamers.
>>499654105All her feelings for you were fabricated. Absolutely worst girl.
Are the royal archetypes even worth going for in NG?I don't even have a single elite class at 20 and they want me to have multiple classes at that rank.
>>499653764>>499653974Copidolaon
>people stgruggle with the coliseum silver promotion battlelule
>>499654850Farming Archetype EXP is ridiculously easy in the final dungeon right before the last boss, but if you want to actually use them for all the side dungeons before that, they take a bit of grinding. Most are pretty decent though.
>>499654850If you have to grind for it, no
>>499655150Is the final dungeon possible before the side dungeons?
Metaphor might genuinely have one of the worst NG+ modes I've ever seen in a JRPG.
true "next" gen graphic update when
>>499655364Nope.
>>499655405That's lies of P can't trick me
Just finished the game. I liked it but the ending was a bit weak, as is the case with most Atlus games. The only truly emotional moment was the fight against More
Sidequests or social links before Louis on the 24th?
>>499655405Atlus do not have the team or the budget to do this while keeping the amount of content the same. The game probably should have been more stylised though, Persona 5 looks better despite being a much older game in the same engine just because they stuck to simpler textures so it's not obvious they're still using PS3-level assets
>>499656005I did sidequests
>>499655908>I liked it but the ending was a bit weak, as is the case with most Atlus gamesI disagreed, p4 ending was almost perfect. p3 was good too
>>499656176Yep. I actually thought P5 was a pretty good looking game, but some of the textures in this one look like they belong on a Playstation 2.
>>499656176Urban setting kind of lends itself better to simple textures.
>>499656176The motion blur is the larger areas look really really bad too. Whereas in the simpler textures and smaller hallways of persona 5 it wasn't nearly as noticeable.
>>499656262P4 was the reason I didn't say "all" Base P3's ending is good but I didn't really like The Answer.
WTF, they actually got the head of the Myohoji temple to sing the battle music in esperanto
>>499655908The pacing overall is just bad.There's genuinely not enough fights and exp to naturally level archetypes without targeted farming. Elite archetypes being gated behind links that don't even fucking appear until the last quarter of the game doesn't help either.Then when you get them you just dump all your drugs into characters and don't get to actually experience any of their playstyles.
>>499652705This game soured my whole view on Persona so it better stay as high. They did say they want it as a new pillar but not like they didn't say that for Soul Hackers...Metaphor at least has a better chance how it stands now.
>>499655405Not sure I want to trust jap devs to make a demanding game.
>>499656793cry me a fucking river
>>499657003That's UE4, same as SMTV.
>>499656176https://www.mobygames.com/game/231733/metaphor-refantazio/credits/windows/?autoplatform=truejust skimmed through the metaphor credits, and holy hell did they outsource a lot to other companies, maybe this is the reason?
oh a famitsu thread went up that's why there's more shitposting
>>499657045t. retard who hasn't changed from the default archetypes the whole game
>>499657123P3R outsourced a lot as well. I don't know if it's a money thing or a lack of talent.
WHY WON'T HE STAY DEAD
the only atlus endings I actually like are p3 vanilla, P5 vanilla, and this game's
>>499657003Lies of P isn't even a demanding game, most people would think that's how a bare minimum PS5 game should look nowadays
>>499657516>most peoplebugs*
Man, these games burn me like no other. It'll probably be a year until I feel like playing anything with turns again.
>>499657596feel free to stop posting any time
>>499657596I played P4 in 2009 and I still don't want to play another Persona game.
>>499656793>farmingI don't know why this isn't seen as a flaw.It's not that I'm against farming, it's just that in games where you should do this, it's generally not time gated and the game itself encourages it through crafting (And I don't mean crafting benches either) or having you enter an area you can freely enter, get smashed, and come back to after leveling elsewhere.You can do both of these somewhat, but the time gate is where you'd be genuinely out of time if you realized post-social link spamming you'd have to reload a prior save.Most anons will call you a retard for not realizing the obvious solution immediatly like they designed it, but what's nicer about any other turn based game is that you can leave, go back and not have to speedrun boosting Wisdom so your sugar mama lets you unlock a new job.I think all the /v/ anons realized this thread is up which is why it's gone to one or two anons being fags about anything that isn't one shotting a boss your first try.
>>499657516I do not give a single fuck what normalfags expect games to look like. They don't need to invest the money there as clearly demonstrated by Metaphor's sales.
>>499657226>125,314 physical copies sold in japanidkis this good or bad
>>499657262The game gives you little incentive to move characters outside their base archetype.
>>499657714I beat vanilla P5 on my PS3 on JP release and I still haven't beaten any other Persona game. I dropped them halfway through and watched the anime.
>>499657373You can't stop the hero. Long Live Louis
>>499658002When you get the Royal archetypes there's 0 reason to do it. You get the passives you want from other archetypes and that's it.
Even if no one got me, I know my nigga, Rotund Gravedigger, got me
>an actual racism OHKO attackThis game man
>>499657878Physical is dying which is why Famitsu threads are pointless and just shitposting grounds at this point. We know the game did a million in 6ish hours.
>>499658002>anon is actually one of those unimaginative fags lmao
>>499656262Why do I feel like P4 is largely hated by people who otherwise praise 3 and 5? I'd say 4 is easily the best Persona game with the most likable cast of characters.
>>499658380>there's 0 reason to do it>You get the passives you want from other archetypes and that's itWhich is it? You have to spread out to even unlock the Royal Archetypes (fucking Heismay)
>>4996588820 reason because I'm playing on easy and just auto attack everything with auto battle
>setup a villain throughout the game>he doesn't get usurped by a secret god or some shit, but actually stays a threat throughout the game>he's even the final bosssimple kino
>>499659175the god part was cut
>>499653341Losing fanartists/regular fans when they reveal p6 characters will affect it
>>499658882Oh come on. By the point you're unlocking royal archetypes you are absolutely not playing the sub archetypes, you play the main archetype and use the 1K EXP leaves to level the others. Even if you use their passives you're not actually using the class.
Louis = Maruki > Kagatsuchi, Strega, Nyx, Adachi, Izanami, Walter/Jonathan, Krishna, YHVH, Goro, Shido, Yaldaboath, Qaditsu, Yoko/Tao
>>499657832>woof.pngBasilio and Fidelio are CATS
>>499658776Necessity is the mother of invention. If the game is trivially easy on hard, you have no reason to try new things.
>>499604390how replayable is this gameI'm always worried about buying these persona games as they usually are more catered towards a niche fanbase rather then being actually good games
All paripus are dogs.
>>499660201Any game is as replayable as you want it to be.
>>499660201It's VEEEEEEEEERY long, so unless you absolutely love it, you probably won't feel like replaying it. I don't think there's any NG+ content either.
>>49966020150/50Not as bad as persona, but there's a chance you'll be put off by the gameplay.
>>499660201It is possible to 100% all events and all social links in NG, and NG+ only adds an optional superboss
>>499660052lol
Dare I say it?This game > FF7 Rebirth
>>499660687Anything is better than that travesty.
>>499660965Yes, but in the normal world, they're both highly praised games respected for nearly all their aspects. You have to remember that most people don't regard 99.9% of things as slop.
Why do I find that ingredient for that request you get in the 4th town? It says a shop in the capital sells it but I've been to all of them and nothing is there.
I don't think I cooked a single time
>>499661146Never mind it was literally in the basic ass item shop that I forgot even existed because normal items are redundant in this game.
>>499660908Bravo Kojima
Me and my boyfriend.
>>499661146talk to the informant in gran trad it's in the item shop
>>499661340>can't admit a mistake without getting snarky

>>499660908Stop pasting adachi's ugly mug over my wife.
>>499661436Yeah I found it, cheers.>>499661456I wasn't being snarky though? I was just explaining why I didn't check the item shop cause I thought it was funny that the literal most obvious place to look was the one that I didn't. It ain't that deep bro.
>>499660201you need to be extremely autistic and basically a threat to any school in your area to want to replay this
>>499661743EXCUSE ME I may be a school shooter but I'm DEFINITELY not a ReFantazio replayer
>>499660201I probably will replay it at some point but I have to say Metaphor has one of the most bafflingly stupid NG+ modes I've ever seen. It does so much wrong it's actually insulting.
>>499661406Strohl is so lucky
>>499657373The party already sympathises with him more and more, he'll never stay dead...
>>499661743tried playing ng+ to go for the plat, remembered how the game goes and uninstalled.
>spam Heismay ev/agi decrease move>spam Eupha atk decrease moveThis singlehandedly beats almost every single boss I've come across.
>>499660201You could arguably speedrun it for doing any quests you ignored or didn't finish. Honestly, I kind of wish I did my base run building all my stats and getting money and spent NG+ doing social links.
wtf is the point of the MAG exchange. I have never hurt for money and I don't even use merchant/tycoon that much. I had like 3 million gold before the final battle with nothing good to spend it on but I was constantly hurting for MAG the entire game.
I have an unhealthy obsession with the ambiguity of how big Euphas tits are or aren't.
I like how Hulkenberg is dumb in a non-stupid way.
>>499660201Absolutely low replay value. Everything is packed on single playthrough. It's better this way tho. I don't understand why people want replay long jrpgs, it's better if they add post-game dungeon or something rather than NG+
>>499657373>inb4 metaphor 2 comes out and he's still the main villain somehow
>>499663330>sees Strohl demonstrate the dragon lance breaking the king's protection on MC>Hulk: "I don't get it"
>>499663723I'd fucking kneel.They can easily do a plot of a Louis cult trying to impose his ideals while secretly resurrecting him.
Does final boss Louis go down easily if I've been 1 or 2 shotting the human bosses in the final area?
>>499664282No.
>>499664282DependsI was doing that too but it was still a decently difficult encounter
>>499664148I mean, it's not that farfetched since Zorba basically did the same plot on a much smaller timeframe. His skyrunner is now a local landmark too, so you could easily just have the cult work out of there.
I used the Overlord Sash AND Junah's synthesis skill that doubles damage. My run was fair and valid and I DID beat the game.
at what point do you get to build your own team?every combat encounter since the beginning until now (12th of august) has been rock paper scissorsall I've done is get into battle, use money attackif that didn't work and I died, switch everyone to mage and use the spell they are weak againstand if that didn't work just use the correct item that causes the correct status effectI don't think I've used strohl as a physical class for more than 1 dungeon and that was in the beginning
>>499664490I'm surprised Glodell didn't come back. I think outside of Forden and Grius he's the only one who truly died with no way of coming back. Rella's body is in ice and is totally ressurectable if they pull a Final Fantasy level dead but not exactly dead because spirits and shit
>>499665413First megaten game newfriend?
>>499665709Well, king's magic and all. They all shared that in their deaths.
Should I buy 7 archetypal rings or do I only need 4 for my on field team?
>>499665413OK I have bad news
>>499665413Sounds to me you're building your team you just naturally gravitate toward the cheese
Teleportation felt a big contrived and I feel the gauntlet runner should've just had to run everywhere.
>>499665413>I don't think I've used strohl as a physical class for more than 1 dungeonSo in other words you built your team
>>499666301yeah sure if you also consider using the autobattle function as "playing the game"
>>499666156But muh calendar. Can't let the player waste 6 whole days traveling. It was obviously a bandaid solution.
>>499666156No. Sometimes things should be convenient for the story to work with the gameplay.
>>499666156I'm glad the devs aren't as fucking stupid as you are. Dumb nigger.
>>499665413What the fuck is "building your team" even mean, fucktard?
>>499663723>>499664148Honestly how they hyped him in the marketing as the second protagonist and how the party talked to him at the end, you can bet he comes back but more as a temporary ally if they wanna go the cliche way. After all he never had beef with us personally and his plan would never work again without the royal magic. Plus we beat him with might, he will recognize that. Not like you ever saw a body and his face wasn't gone right away on the stone when he should have been dfisintegrated. He also already was able to jump and fall from great heights so not like that would kill him.
What level are enemies in the dragon temple? Should I do it first or do the side dungeons first?
>>499666640so in RPG games there is a concept of a "build"it entails making decisions about stat allocations, skill choices and equipmentwhile playing RPS is technically considered "making a build", it is the same vernacular as saying that using the autobattle function is "playing the game"yes, technically the game is being played
>>499666951Doing one first just makes you stronger for the other. But what should come before both is ranking up followers for perks.
>>499667068You do that from the start. I don't know what else to tell you.
>show a room full of the ethereal ear human thingy>noo we can't go in there let's find the source so we can remove all of themhard to understate how much I'd rather just beat 5-10 bosses than wander around for some real version
>>499667173nah the choices are extremely linear and not all that interestingagain, yes this is technically building your team, but it's incredibly boring, just like using autobattle is playing the game, but it is incredibly boring
Is this purification bugged for anyone else?
>>499667392fuck off retard
>>499667473Read the bonus
>>499667473It's not a bug. You pick which effect you prefer and purify it to that one and if you ever want the other you purify it back.
>>499665413>>499667068>>499667392There's always someone who thinks they're the next Joseph Anderson when a new game comes out.
>>499667473You can freely switch between the two versions.
>>499666156I felt the opposite. It incredibly pissed me off with just how many dungeons were like 3 days away even if you'd already fucking been to one of the places on the way. It was just wasting your time for no actual reason. There was literally no reason the gauntlet shouldn't have just been able to teleport to any location you've been to before instead of just towns. After that I basically avoided doing all requests that didn't have a time limit in case another request pops up that uses the same route so I could do them at the same time. Such terrible fucking game design.
>>499667657He sounds more like that mayo retard guy who plays the games in the most boring, unimaginative way then cries about the game not "encouraging" him to change.
>>499667657>>499667889who
>>499667865>wasting your timeYou can work on your stats while traveling so you waste nothing
>>499667865>how many dungeons were like 3 days awayDid you ever progress to the point where that was no longer the case?
>>499667865I always hate game design that punishes you for not being omniscient and Atlus is probably the worst dev ever for doing it. It's like they just think it's expected that everyone plays with a guide open.
>>499666421alright you went off the deep end
>>499668115Stop stressing over time.If you have half a functioning brain you can do everything the game has to offer with weeks to spare.
The most lenient "Persona" game when it comes to maxing out social stats and links, and people still struggle.
>>499668295>>499668350I never said I struggled. I just said it's stupid for the game to punish you for not being able to predict the future. Whether you can do everything despite that or not is irrelevant. The point is it DOES punish you. Which is the worst game design and should never happen.
I didn't get a chance to use a single bathing salt...
>>499667087>Doing one first just makes you stronger for the other.think that was why anon asked about the order..
>>499668618cry moarNext time maybe pick up all side quests first, that's like basic rpg etiquette. They're maybe one single time where in the 5th zone that a quest appears after you potentially traveled to a town already and even then, you only "waste" a single day.
>>499668618>it's stupid for the game to punish you for not being able to predict the futureIt's this kind of retardation that made them implement teleportation probably It definitely wasn't a last minute thing either, they probably decided fairly early on that committing to the roadtrip would filter too many retards, same reason why they drew what path to take in the dragon temple on the floor
>>499668825Are you stupid? You unlock new sidequests as you progress through the game. You literally have Gallica to tell you if there's any new ones to accept you fucking moron.>>499668891And you're a bigger retard than anyone if you think the teleport wasn't an absolutely necessary feature. If you genuinely think it wasn't always intended when the game has numerous new features that unlock in places you've already been to making it function without teleport literally fucking impossible then you are actually brain dead.
>>499668825>cry moarquit being a fag or go to /v/>>499668891I was disappointed they showed the path because I thought it would be neat having to learn it. It's meant to be impenetrable so I initially was checking the torches or markings only to get to the pedestal that simply said "look."
>>499669117>You literally have Gallica to tell you if there's any new ones to accept you fucking moron.Yes and you failed to do even that.
I'm just happy that exploring a dungeon while also being able to raise social stats or increase a (party member) link is a basic feature. You had to work for that in P5. Not to mention free cooking with Maria's link.
How much do you suppose Heismay weighs? Real bats are extremely light in order to fly, but Eugief can only glide. Still, I can hardly figure he's more than 30lbs.
>>499669317No, my point is I DIDN'T fail that you fucking single digit IQ fuckwad. I accepted every quest as soon as they were available. This has no fault of mine. It is the game's. Retard.
I'm not satisfied with 100 hours of this game I want 200
>>499669451It's literally impossible to waste time if you actually did that.
>even zorba has a bigger ass than hulkbruh
>>499669364Can't be a decent assassin without decent mass. Eugief are probably dense as hell.
>>499668680Scary
>>499669649he's wearing 6 inch fuck me pumps of course his arse is gonna look good
does the game really remove the avility to fish past a certain point or am I just missing something?
>>499669649I've seen multiple posts claiming that Hulk had an ass in pre-release screenshots or footage, but I haven't seen it. Did anyone save a pic of it?
>>499669926In case you didn't figure it out you got ripped off This game is so unfinished it makes concord look full
>>499670125nevermind I just realized they left a single water camp just for thathow does it feel being so retarded?
>>499669476I know the feeling. >>499669926You can only fish when your runner is on the water. In the last month of the game, I made a trip from Virga to the campsite just north of it in order to fish.
>>499670125Concord was never unfinished, you dumb fuck.
>>499670320You are playing an unfinished product

And as much as I'd want to rank Catherina above Junah, she just doesn't seem all that popular. Hulk isn't on the list because I don't think she'd be a romance option even if we had SL9/10s.
>single player Jarpig>FOMOlmao I don't want to give the shitposting retard any attention but holy fuck that's a dumb fucking post LOL
>>499670882>two god tier oneslmao
>>499670512How would you feel if a DLC expansion made Gallica playable but only after she was magically made human-sized
>>499671317
>>499671226Yes?Being able to discuss it with everyone once it's new and also being able to avoid spoilers is FOMO and I regret it.There's also going to be an extended version, seeing ow utterly rushed the ending is and the game literally has a month of nothing before that. You seem to be awfully defensive though.
If you have sex with a nidia is it with their true form or their glamour form?
You now imagine all that Will x More art that was probably made before... you know.
>>499670826Gallica or Eupha, only because so many faggots these days are painfully vanilla or obsessed with what's "canon".
>>499671581yes
>>499671519>FOMO over a single player game>"I regret this game I played for 80 hours"the fucking retards you see on this site, just breathtaking. Like mannequins with zero agency.
This game makes shoulderpads look so gay
>>499671581Glamour probably since there was that one married couple where the wife was a nidia that wanted to throw herself off a cliff because the husband walked in on her and saw her true form
>>499671076Which ones caught you off guard? I felt like every "twist" was visible from a mile away, not that I didn't enjoy the ride.
>CATherina>Is a wolf/bunny, not a cat
>>499671710>if you spent a lot of time you shouldn't regret it.Stop pretending to be retarded trying to defend your unfinished game.
>>499670708Only japan is getting anything and it's all merch like plushies for women
>>499671883>80 hourslooks pretty fucking finished to me, retard
>>499671619>implying it didn't increaseDo you even fujoshi?
>>499671981I left it idle for at least 20 of those shitposting.Still rushed and unfinished. the last 2 months needs a serious rework.
>>499670826Judging by current popularity, it's clearly gonna be Hulk. The other playable girls didn't shoot up past her and probably won't cause they look like shit.
>>499671826>Nidia magic is so strong it can perfectly recreate the feel of a normal-sized pussy
>>499671065This is the true message of the fantasy book, Will just fell in love with the worldbuilding the author did to justify the copious amounts of fairy fucking.
>>499671619His last two bond scenes ARE pretty gay.
>>499672113I mean, that's pretty good magic
>>499671206Brigitta only likes Will when she's suicidal.
what exactly are the mechanics of the final bossjust asking because my party was kinda op in the end and i just kinda smashed through it all
>>499670826strohl, not close either. what a stupid question
>>499672089Hulk is like the only girl who shows virtually no interest in MC. She gets a lot more emotional moments and lines with Stohl than MC.
>>499672279...my lovely chocolate Haman Karn
the way Metaphor ends, a Metaphor 2 could be a completely different story with a new world and all
>>499672301First phase, Louis has three masks that attack you. After a turn or so, he'll start sacrificng races to the masks, requiring a DPS check on the mask performing a sacrifice. If you don't pass it, he eats the race and either heals/buffs himself, does a heavy attack-all magic attack, or debuffs you iirc. Second phase, he mostly just flounders with more basic attacks but if you left the homos unchecked in the final dungeon he gets more turns to use. If you spend enough time in the fight, he'll start cursing entire races. Leave a character with that race in the party, and they'll immediately die after like a turn.
>>499671831>the "real" world being in the pastI thought it would be an alternate dimension, like the Metaverse to reality in P5.>Zorba survivingI expected that early on, but the game kept beating it into my head he was dead, so I gave up on it.>Rella doing the curse/Louis not doing itLouis is so evil that I was confident in it, and after that wasn't true, I thought Forden casted it through a proxy for it to last past his death. Rella was never an option for me.>the MC being the prince's other half/OCJust never considered it.>More being the young king.Once again, I get an idea beaten into me so hard that I discard any theories (More being trapped by the king).I'm pretty quick to give up on a theory for a story if the story says "lol no" enough. Either that, or I get wrapped up in the same way of thinking as the characters.
>>499672661Metaphor 2 is going to be on the mainland where you learn old humans still exist
>>499672649Isn't she like Sae?
>>499672768There is no reason to return to this story
>>499672683Aight thanksRoyal Berserker did work and got me through it easy
>>499672864I didn't say the same characters.The point is that what happened on their tiny island and their stupid succession wars will seem like a meaningless spec compared to the shit going on in the mainland, which is how the game will increase the stakes over the first some.
>>499672864There's 1 million (in 4 days) reasons to return to this story. I just want to see the mindbreak.
>>499672946Yeah, I kinda came very unprepared so I got to become very intimate with the boss's pattern. First phase was way more difficult though, mostly because if you don't pass the DPS checks the shit falling onto you start to add up very quickly.
>>499672698>or I get wrapped up in the same way of thinking as the characters.That's exactly how I get into things. I just puyt myself in characters shoes and imagine how they'd think about things.
Basilio deserves all the good things in the world.
>>499672505I'm replying to the hypothetical "what-if" it had romance presumably like persona.
>>499673467Like Junah's pussy?
>>499673051>>499672661Probably same universe on different part of the world with different shit happening
>don't put romance shit in your game, just a few flirty lines and open to interpretation shit >gooners fuck off>shippers still ship and speculator>everyone else gets to just play the game>much less work perfect outcome, let's do this going forward
Does /meta/ consider itself to be Persona?
>>499673732Anti-romancefags are the biggest fucking retards surrounding this game.
Erm I thought regular people wouldn't know what a human looks like
>>499673823nah you're literally just seething and shitting yourselfget over it fag, it's done
>>499673873they dontthey just assume fucked up things are human
>>499673771if anything it'd be shin megami tensei since persona is already a spin-off of soul hackers/smt:if
>>499673906A hilarious lack of self awareness. Did you have a single day that you didn't wake up seething about romance? You're just as pathetic as they are you whiney faggot. Shut the fuck up.
>>499673771No. If Persona stealing all of SMT's demons, spells, mascot, etc and is not SMT, then Metaphor taking the 'social link' stuff and calender system is not Persona. It's just a company having common stuff among all their games
>>499673873>looks like a normal person>but fucked up and scary>guess it's a human
>>499673615Bas wanted Rella
>>499673771Fantasy Persona
>>499674032>are you mad the game gave you what you want HUH? I'M NOT MAD YOU'RE MAD BECAUSE YOU GOT WHAT YOU WANTED lol you're fucking rabidhilarious
some of the archestypes look so fucking sick and excessivei laughed out loud when i saw persona master for first timealso wtf are the summoners
>>499674032Hey chief, there is no romance in this game. We won, you lost>*dabs*
I love the story of this game, it has me grippedbut the gameplay mechanics suck major dick
>>499673823How? It's made for us.
>>499672791what's the woman on her cape supposed to be
>>499674179>and yet still feels the need to seethe about it on the dailyYou're projecting so hard it's unreal. Nobody is mad but you dumbass. Stop seething. I never said I wanted romance. You see you assumed I was calling you a retard because I'm a romancefag but unfortunately for you I am not. If there's no romance, whatever, if there is romance whatever. It doesn't matter. I do not care You care about this shit more than they do. Literal rent free.>>499674264>>499674331See above. You can stop seething any day now.
>>499674331See, he's smug and cool and confident because we got what we wanted, which also made us very mad. I'm sure it makes sense if you have brain prions.
>>499674108Well, he'll have to settle.
>>499673467I will give them to him.
WE'RE GOING TO FIGHT TO THE DEATHnext month though, go have fun until then. I can wait.
>>499674434>make post saying how great it was that gooners fucked off and shippers still ship >guy responds losing his fucking mind claiming "I'M NOT MAD YOU'RE MAD" but also that he doesn't carelol you're a fucking lunatic, exactly the kind of person I picture when I think of people who lose their minds over 8 poorly written romance lines per character in Persona
>>499673467I really like how he's the one who manages to make Louis seethe at the end of Skybound Avatar.
eupha's VA sucks
>>499674628She's lost in the death temple with monsters!but she knows the place well and has food and a shitting jar so it's cool take two weeks
>>499674729Best she does too
Metaphor story actually makes me jealous Dawntrail wasn't even half as good as Metaphor is
>>499674659Projection. Nobody is "losing their mind" here but you. Why would you feel the need to care about the opinions of other people unless you were seething about them? You let them live rent free in your head because they make you seethe. I, someone who isn't mentally ill like you do not give a shit if some people want the game to have romance or don't want the game to have romance.
>>499674434>You're projecting so hard it's unreal. Nobody is mad but you dumbass. Stop seething. I never said I wanted romance. You see you assumed I was calling you a retard because I'm a romancefag but unfortunately for you I am not. If there's no romance, whatever, if there is romance whatever. It doesn't matter. I do not care You care about this shit more than they do. Literal rent free.This definitely sounds like someone who doesn't care to me KEK
>>499674204I love the Persona Master's "portal to space" hair and thighs.
>>499674908We wonYou lost>*dabs and shits on you*
>>499674434I don't know what you're seething about.
>>499674929Irony.
>>499675058you're watching a real time melty. Not all that rare on 4chan, but still humorous as long as we don't give him too much attention.
dragoon ... horse ... pussy ....
>>499674729cool it with the racism
>>499675223she's the exact same race as all the other voice actors
>>499674857metaphor needed a lil nigga mooj
anyways here's my 4000 word essay about how you're actually mad that the game was made for you and why I don't care
>>499646874nah Eupha is undeniably the most boring character of the group and also has no connections or chemistry with anyone
>>499675517so many bugs have been there....HOWEVER
>>499675438we already have Maria
>>499672698>I'm pretty quick to give up on a theory for a story if the story says "lol no" enough. Either that, or I get wrapped up in the same way of thinking as the characters.It's the true way to enjoy a game. Abandon cynicism, stop trying to predict every single twist ahead of time. I did predict Hythlodaeus because I paid attention to eye color and the fact that they're both blonde with extremely long hair but my theory was Louis is the other illegitimate son for the same reason.
hulkenberg eating my fat fucking larvayep im talking about my penishelp she ate my penis
>>499674929>>499675031>>499675058>>499675190>>499675517>GOD I'M SO FUCKING GLAD THIS GAME DOESN'T HAVE ROMANCE GOD THOSE ROMANCEFAGS MAKE ME SO FUCKING ANGRY GOD I'M SO HAPPY THIS GAME DOESN'T GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT CUASE THAT WOULD MAKE ME SO FUCKING MAD AND THOUGH THE GAME DOESN'T GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT I'M STILL GOING TO BRING IT UP LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE DAY TO LET THEM KNOW HOW MAD THEY ARE ABOUT IT CAUSE I'M DEFINITELY NOT MAD ABOUT THEMThis is you. You are seething. Not mentally ill people do not care about what other people want and just enjoy what they enjoy. By the way cause you keep projecting. Metaphor is the best Atlus game I've ever played and easily my game of the year and I'm even of the opinion that the game is better without the romance so I'm the only winner here cause unlike you retards I don't need to seethe about other people to enjoy what I want. lmao the very fact that so many of you retards felt the need to chime in proves my point alone. Why do you care?
>>499675908>>499675517lol
>>499674096If you say demon instead of human, it's reasonable to assume it works in the exact connotation.If a fucked up bat creature with six eyes and horns fell out of the sky, the average person would call it a demon, devil, or correlate it with whatever looks the closest to it in the media
>>499674857LOUIS LISTEN TO ME
Uh oh melty
>>499675962>more words = more madSaying this after typing up a bunch of words yourself is just self admitting how mad you yourself are. Feels like I'm beating a dead horse here but if the shoe fits. PROJECTION.
Louis really proves one of my thesisA good villain is loadbearing You cannot have a good game with a bad villain
Ah, must be Famitsu numbers day.
>>499674096Guess they would have believed the baby human was a human too then
I'm a Sega Insider. I'll make sure that the next call I'm on I mention how I see everywhere online that people found the lack of romances refreshing and it provided a new focus on the adventure and task at hand.
>island of weird pagan cultists>dub game them all welsh accentslol
>>499674857>have always played on release since 4.0>wasn't that excited but curious for Ishikawa kino since she was overseeing the MSQ>sPEEEN LiSSEN TU MiI wish I skipped cutscenes outside of Shaolani. What the fuck were they thinking for 99% of the story.Metaphor was everything I wished dt had. I mean it's got all the trappings of hw's Halonic religion.
Ah yes, the mass replier "I'm not mad" post. A classic!
>constantly turn into Archetypes with a ton of varied designs>"oh wow, that elda candidate and his friends have some strange magical power">turn into yourself but bigger and purple>"IT'S A HUMAN"
The people seething about romancefags are just the same insecure SMT cucks who are obsessed with Persona being more popular as a series.
>>499676236yo dudecan you leak to us if the switch 2 port will come with female MC
Metaphor should easily sweep any awards relating to story/narrative this year, but good luck having a JRPG get that. They're gonna give that shit to Dragon Age.
>>499676236BASED
>>499676309but the music tho
>>499676338purple is evil
Who cares about romance we saw Louis NAKED
>>499676376they don't tell us stuff like that unless you go to the playtests which I don't because I'm not driving several hours to play some game I'll play later anyways
>>499676338Seriously everyone sees never before magic and just say "hey cool" and move on
>>499676331>make post seething>get called out on it>"no it's actually you that's mad"Ok bud
>>499676338>turn into yourself but bigger and purpleI thought they ran out of design ideas because it felt so lazy. We've been sitting on the Garden of Earthly Delights and they couldn't source any other famous, public domain art?
>>499676719lol
>>499676749I was entertaining the idea that will just turned into a regular sized human shape and the rest of the people are just extra tiny.
extreme sounds like a bigger thing than severe
Make a Strohl thread
>>499676309>tfw can't identify or distinguish one UK accent from the next >quickly settled for the assumption that Eupha and Edeni have fake Indian accents like the twins from DQVI maybe my ears are racist
>>499677583It didn't click for me that it wasn't until I started questioning why Royal Slash costed less MP than Royal Sword's total cost.
>>499677583yeah I'd rather have a severe fever than an extreme one
>>499677758>the dom>the bottom>the switch
>>499677758Imagine fighting over third place.
>>499677583>>499677874Wait, severe is more than extreme?
"Greatly increases caster's physical attack damage once per battle"I felt stupid when I realized you can keep using Charge more than once
>>499677583yeah it's dumb
>>499678142weak < medium < heavy < extreme < severe
>>499678151yeah the translation is retarded. its probably supposed to be "for one attack", as charge always worked.
>>499676572A fuarking exhibitionist
>>499678151This also happened to me. Wonder why they didn't just rip a description of Charge from its 20 years of existing. But imagine if Charge only did work once?
>>499678420>demi, short, tall, grande, venti, trenta
>fanart all shows Brigitta as a dommy mommy stereotype>in reality she's a subby bitch that would collapse into a puddle if you touched hermany such cases
>>499678461I wonder if this will be made real by the AstroBot updates in the coming weeks.
>>499678743it's Mitsuru again
I haven't switched out party members in battle once
>when it's a 3D animated scene and Hulkenberg's eyebrows are visibleSomething about that just makes my heart flutter.
>>499679410I've done it constantly.
>>499678151It was also borked in my local translation, I wonder what the original text says.
>>499679410I swapped out Stohl for Junah cause the rest get full EXP out of combat but god damn she's fucking terrible. I'm really tempted to perma bench her useless ass.
Requesting Batlin's cringing portrait before thread ends
>>499679941playing on normal?
>>499679941>Junah>terribleShe's the debuffer and elemental weakness applier.
>>499679941>can be every class she wants with minimal investment>terribleliterally a skill issue
>>499680201To be fair making she's extremely magic-oriented in her stats, it's weird that she's the figure-head of a class that seems to promote versatility when you'll never want to give her the mask of a physical class.
Speaking of Junah. I just got her and don't really get how her class works. Where do you get the masks from?
>>499679941She gets better once you get to Dance Master and can implant weaknesses. Give her the General Mask, it's probably her best one since she gets Frigid Frozen Tactics and Marukaja
>>499680482No idea how that "making" ended up here, I got a stroke.
>>499680482Same goes for Eupha and her stupid phys summons.The demon should just scale with mag
>giving up your accessory slot to do a heavy damage skilllolanyway the actual reason junah is good is because of masquerade charge. give her the utilitarian's manual and have her spam it every turn, enjoy will and strohl hitting the damage cap every turn.
why is there no smoke ball item
>>499680907it's a social link skill
>>499680972thats no excuseespecially when you can get ambushed through no fault of your own from the janky ass real time combat
>>499680893>the damage capThere is one? My biggest hit was around 60K, is 99999 the maximum?
>>499681089Coping
>>499681089Sounds like a skill issue
BAKE IT
>>499681138>>499681169beat the game on hard retards it becomes trivialgetting ambushed is just a waste of timethe real time combat serves no purpose
>>499681305skill issue
>>499681305One skill issue begets another
>>499672791When is someone going to extra Eupha's EO model
>>499681305Also beat it on hard. It's a skill issue.
>>499672791her portrait looks like Ohya
>>499682131Yeah, but she's actually sexy unlike Ohya.
so like paripus women are definitely really hairy down there right?
>>499682026No one can easily do anything with the new GMDs and the only app that can even get them open has that function in a debug build The old 3dsmax plug-in is the only way to make an fbx or dae out of any of the models and on top of that the dlc costumes aren't just sitting in the game files you have to actually download them after buying
>>499682425>>499682425new
>>499682280Ohya is sexy, her problem was being useless.
>>499671867I thought she was a horse girl???
