A question I'm afraid to ask, but know I have to regardless: Was giving the other party members the ability to channel any archetype lineage simply a formality? The Royal (ultimate) versions pretty much tell you what kind of character you're expected to build for them. Or maybe the ultimates were the formality to guide players.

>>499743136I think that while the Royals are basically the best for each character, there are passives/skills from other Archetypes that can definitely supplement them further. And something like Merchant is good regardless.

They really need to start giving the late game bosses more health. They don't all have to be walls but doing half health each turn on my very unoptimized build is a bit of a let down. If I grind to max and know how to break the game sure but not using the big move the game hands me

>>499752856Taunting and tanking
>>499753657I think the protagonist is the most off looking 3D model, I think his design is fine but then actually looking at him ingame sometimes he just looks a bit off.
>>499753657That's every 3d model in this game.
are there special rewards for getting archetype mastery to 100% for other characters than the protagonist? I seem to be only getting exp items.
Hey Neuras, did you know it's apparently a Mustari custom to watch your friends while they sleep? I didn't either, but apparently she was using her abilities to give me good dreams...I know I should be more tolerant, but can we get locks on our beds?
How the fuck do people even manage to get overlevelled in this game? I'm playing on normal so the exp rates are boosted compared to hard, I fight pretty much every enemy cuase you can use mage to regen it, I do every single quest without fail, every dungeon and I've even spent a shit ton of time infinitely farming red crystals and yet I have not ONCE been overlevelled. In fact my biggest issue has been the fact that I've always been underlevelled so I haven't been able to actually farm red crystals much because the enemies have fucking always been too high level for me which genuinely pissed me off every dungeon I went to.
>>499753051Her and Gallica
>>499754001It seems easy enough to get overlevelled if you have a bunch of Finisher Noodles. I don't think you're actually expected to be the same level as the bosses though, most of the time I was like 10-15 levels below them and that felt right.
Hulkenberg has the prettiest 3D model when she's animated.
>>499754001at around 60+, people start farming for the special rewards for getting archetype mastery but yeah if you don't do that and you're overleveled, you're just randomly farming for no reason
>>499754103>>499754239Honestly I think the whole auto win on enemies 3 levels below you is such an insanely stupid mechanic. It's blatantly self defeating. To even have a possibility of grinding you need to regen MP with mage but to do that you need to be higher level than them so you're stuck in this catch 22 where you need the levels to insta win fights but to do that you need to grind but you can't grind because you need to use MP which you can't get because you can't insta win fights.
>>499754360M8 if you're still at a point where you don't have enough MP items when you start grinding somehow just stagger the same enemies over and over again
>>499754360I really think they should've just let you heal at safe rooms. The resource management just doesn't work, you need these moves to effectively use press turn and if you have to grind MP will. It becomes how much can you be bothered to grind rather than a thoughtful process. The challenge should be getting from one safe room to the next without running low. Part of the issue is they need to give up on the do the dungeon over a few days thing. No one ever does that, I am not wasting days when I don't know how many will be needed and I can push through. Even if it makes the dungeon less fun. It also feels a bit lame when you meet an enemy for the first time and can already beat it on the overworld. If MP was less of an issue they could make it so first time has to be turn based, but after if you've levelled enough they can be beat on the overworld. Maybe it should have some kind of cost, or you can do a bigger attack that costs MP to kill overworld enemies quicker.
>>499754908Even worse take than the first one
>>499754908Yeah it's absolutely not balanced at all.>>499755016He's right though.
>>499754908Dude, if they allowed heals at safe rooms then the process would just turn into Leave safe room -> Run past every enemy -> Get to next safe room -> backtrack and explorewhich is its own kind of unfun.
>>499755169>don't even understand how the mp regen works >trying this hard to ignore thatkek
>>499755280What am I supposedly not understanding? You faggots who just can't actually be direct with your posts and always have to act like a smug obnoxious nigger while not saying anything always piss me off. Speak like a normal human being you moron.
ALL HAIL QUEEN EUPHASIA
It's funny because regaining MP not being the same kind of cakewalk that it is in Persona basically proves in of itself that the resource management is working
>>499755016You're right, standing by an respawn crystal and doing the same attack for 10 minutes slowly building MP is a good system. Rather than the same effect but it actually costs the player and can't be done everywhere.>>499755178>Run past every enemy -> Get to next safe room -> backtrack and exploreThat would just take you more time, you still need to level and explore so do it the first time. I'm more likely to run past stuff if I can't be bothered grinding MP. Even in your very stupid scenario I don't see how it is less fun that having to stand and beat the same group of enemies for ages. The current set up encourages grinding much as possible so you can engage with later enemies little as possible to save MP.
>>499755397This game makes MP regening way easier than Persona does. Persona never gave me an infinite use regen method that made it so I literally didn't even need to bother conserving MP like I can in Metaphor. Do you shitposters even play the games you talk about?
Critical ending spoilersHeismay has a cute hat
>>499755529You didn't play persona or metaphor
Normal gives the same exp, mag, and a exp as hard. Only easy and Eurogamer difficulty change that.I've been overleveled all game, only grinding once on the double goblin crystals in the tower for 45 minutes, and just doing an extra 5 minutes per dungeon I clear as merchant for money
>>499755474>you still need to level and explore so do it the first time>thinks the way people will actually end up doing it is a "stupid scenario"And that, my friend, is the same shit the game designers think.
>>499755578>y-you didn't play itOh of course I must have just made up the mage passive that gives you MP every enemy you insta kill. Or Persona not having any such method. My mistake. Honestly why even bother with your shitposting if you're just going to deflect this pathetically?
>>499755703
>>499755753>only works on a per turn basis and as such cannot completely off set the MP spent in combatSo like I said?
>>499755753>have: 2>infinite usehmmm
>guy earlier crying because Junah's bond is "about some other NPC I don't care about">do it myself>it's not, the NPC is just the plot device to make Junah do something to get over past issueswow people that play these games are literally fucking retarded and can't even understand simple straightforward stories
>>499755820that's an accessory broyou don't use it
>>499755819You can get into a low level encounter and then keep guarding>>499755820It's an accessory
>>499755474It isn't a "system" you are being given an option to minmax your calendar day that is fucking shit and invalidated the moment you cast a spell on anything unless you sit there and farm a hundred mooksOr just equip the fucking wizard passive on everyone and give someone those auto masukukaja gloves if you want MP that resembles what P5 has but still at a piss poor rate It's a great thing that you don't make video games
>>499755875>>499755878oic
>>499755548They were all pretty /fa/.
Played on hard, didn't have MP problems once I was at the second townLearn Brawler's moves git gudworked on my machine :^)
Which dungeon to farm AEXP? I am few weeks away for the final dungeon and I dont even have one Royal archetype yet
>>499756043Just wait until you're in the last room of the game you swim in aexp
>>499755654Yes your suggestion was stupid as no one would see the advantage in playing like that. They'll have to go through the dungeon twice, and risk being around enemies that far out level them. Including triggering mid bosses that would likely be before the next safe room. So they might not even be able to do what you suggest. If you aren't as worried about running out of MP you can take your time through a level. The biggest reasons you'll skip enemies is low resource or are just bored. The current set up makes both more likely. >>499755885>you are being given an option to minmax your calendar dayAnd clearly everyone does, no one wants to miss out on that content. They should've recognised this and gone rather than grind spots make it a cost. Can be P2 expensive if they really want to discourage it.
>>499756076not that anon, but I hate when they do that. When I'm that close to the end I want to end and don't care anymore. I guess it's an autism thing.
>>499756035I'm >>499754001 and I literally never said I had MP problems. I said the insta kill mechanic is stupid and counter intuitive. Which it is. Just because I can work around it doesn't mean it isn't a dumb mechanic. Why are you all arguing against a strawman. It's literally not even possible to have MP issues in this game.
The only really imbalanced part about mp regen is magla pills and similar are rare as fuck until you really don't need them anymore.Mp is also only a problem in two dungeons. The grand cathedral because it's so long, and the dragon ruins because it's so long. But you can farm endless pills in the ruins.
>>499756132Weird, I didn't reply or quote you and made an offhand comment. If it didn't apply to you, then why did you reply to it?how odd!
>>499756043Any of the last dungeons are fine. Like in skybound avatar I found a spot which has 3 high level mobs that drop 1000+ a-exp per encounter right next to each other, even more if you unscathed encounter them, and it's right next to a door so you can instantly respawn them. Two quick laps of that and you've basically got a stack, and you can get through the fights really quick once you have a strategy down.
>>499756187Oh you're shitposting. My mistake. I shouldn't have taken anything you said seriously.
>>499756116>I minmax so the devs should cater to that Fuck off, the fact that they let you at all is more than you deserve
>>499753801yes
>>499756237>Uhhh I didn't say anything you said I said but I totally knew it was about me because uhh hurrr durr well you knowyou're a fucking retard is what you are kek
>>499756187I'd bet good money this is the same faggot that had a meltdown about Persona 5 Royal yesterday.
>>499755348>can only regain mp passively when you kill things on the map wrong >can only regain mp passively on the map period Also wrong, actually it's hysterically less efficient to mash a button in the overworld once gallica and like hulkenberg are rank 3
>>499756354I'm not sure if it's two or one person yet. Probably two because one of them doesn't seem to know anything about this game and the other one sort of does.
>>499756314Your post was implying that other people did struggle with MP issues so if you weren't talking about me and nobody else said they struggled with it then yes, as I said you are arguing against a strawman. Where is your disagreement?
>>499756480AH so you DID struggle with MP then. Got it! Hard to keep your story straight when you change it every two posts. Learn brawler moves. Git gud.
>>499755753>>499755819>the regen is 7SP per turn>all physical skills in P5 cost HP, instead of there being a half split like Metaphor>the SP cost of skills in Nu-sona is offensively low, with the most expensive skills being about 50SP (and said skills are barely an improvement over the 12SP skills)Not even close
Euphabros...............we won
The damage boost on moves that do extra against human enemies must be fucking insane because I built into Magic and still did more damage with Royal Slash on the final boss than I did with Exorcist Light. It was honestly kind of disappointing because I found the fight pretty difficult before I started using Royal Slash, and I wish it was as difficult as I initially mistaked it as being.
>>499756438>can only regain mp passively when you kill things on the mapI never said that though did I so what's your point?>Also wrong, actually it's hysterically less efficient to mash a button in the overworld once gallica and like hulkenberg are rank 3By what metric? When you're in a dungeons swapping to mage is always the most efficient due to the fact that it has no cost. You can do it infinitely and there are zero drawbacks to doing it. The only downside is the time investment. If you consider efficiency doing it quicker then sure but at that point you're arguing semantics. >>499756549My guy here can't go one post without arguing against a strawman. I once again, never said I had MP issues. Good job proving my point.
>one retard has literally no idea how mp regen works >the other retard knows only how the way worse method of mp regen works Only in an Atlus general
>>499755834trvthnvke
>>499756696>I once again, never said I had MP issuesSo THEN, Mr. Retard. Why did you reply to a post, addressed to nobody, that talked about MP issues?:^)
Don't blame me, I voted for Roger.
>>499756860I'll answer; because he had MP issues.
>>499756674The late game bosses really don't seem balanced around what you can very easily get. I suppose they have to consider you get locked in the final area and some players will do no side content. But even if you have it should withstand a few more hits. Or like VV have an optional even harder version.
>>499756860>>499756893Did you really just reply to yourself?
>>499756924Metaphor will be saved when Metaphor: Parable releases with Kingborne mode.
>>499756946so you have MP and schizophrenia issues? Shouldn't you go see a doctor and not be playing video games that are too hard for you?
>>499756860Serious question do you think playing coy like this and pleading ignorance actually works? Everyone knows what you're doing.
You know, even if he couldn't figure out other ways to get MP, if he had just bashed some monsters with Wizard or Mage this whole time he was crying he would've been topped off like fivefold times
>>499757094Serious question; do you think your mental retardation is the reason why simple concepts in the game elude you and also why your anger rises so intensely when this is pointed out?
Luwee-sama will save us from these pointless conflicts
Yeah this is absolutely the same retard who had a mental breakdown over Royal yesterday. Royal is better than Persona 5. Cope and seethe faggot.
>>499756696>1mp per Mook kill is more efficient than 20+ from literally doing nothing in turnbased for a couple turns You can't be this uneducated right

romances are soul
>>499757217What part of "due to the fact that it has no cost" do you struggle with understanding may I ask? Yeah no shit you can eventually get better methods but I'm talking about the fact that no matter what part of the game you're at you an always regen your MP by doing this even in the absolute worst case scenario meaning it is quite literally impossible to have MP issues in this game by very definition so I really have no idea why you and this>>499757303 faggot are seething so hard about the idea that the insta kill mechanic are not very well thought out and kind of a shit mechanic. I seriously have no idea why you're getting this worked up over nothing. You're legit making shit up to get mad about.
>>499757427maybe if someone didn't say really retarded shit, people wouldn't need to laugh at it ever think of that?

Guys a Persona 3 just flew over my house!

>>499758183My issue with the insta kill is it feels completely arbitrary. You can be underlevelled and never see it or you can be overlevelled and go through a whole dungeon without manually killing enemies which kind of ruins the pacing of dungeons. I think there should be some measures to make it more consistent. Maybe remove the level requirement and just have dungeons have set enemies that are weak enough to insta kill. The whole MP thing was only brought up as a reference I was doing my 2nd NG run and was farming MP in the first dungeon which made me think of it. It really wasn't the point. Honestly if anything I think MP regening in Metaphor is too easy. There really isn't any reason to hoard MP in this game.>>499758184That isn't me though. I'm just having a conversation, not sure what makes you think of it as shitpositng. Or do you take every post that is longer to be seething? Can I not articulate?

>>499758781?????? What is this gobbledygook spewing retard talking about?
>>499758820it's a bot with 4chan pass
>>499758864of course it is.anyways, about the game:I just stole the Fortune God's Abacus not realizing this guy even had it. I hope I didn't miss anything else uber important by sometimes forgetting to steal (using MC as Ninja)
>>499758669It does the opposite, if you're massively overleveled you don't get the benefit of the normal exp amounts from fights until you hit the boss. It's basically there to normalize the pacing of the dungeons which is why you don't spend the entire game in one state or the other>MP is not the point anymore now that it fell apartok
Is this game better than Persona 5?
>>499759067>>499758761
>p3faggotry exposes itself>suddenly deluge of "just ignore them they're shitposting" replies to posts trying to handwave it subtlety of a obsidian boulder just like their horribly underwritten turd of a game
This game wish it was as good as P3 lol
>>499759067I think I prefer P5R overall, but Metaphor's still really good.
>>499759262>as good as P3Why on earth would metaphor want that
>>499759047Except that's exactly my point. It doesn't do that and that's why it's kind of shit you see I've had dungeons where even the elite enemies just got one shot and I didn't do a manual fight even once in the entire dungeon so I didn't get to enjoy it and then I've had dungeons where literally none of the enemies could be killed instantly so every fight was manual so the only thing it really ends up doing is making you feel like you need to enter dungeons at the exact right specific level for it or you're just going to have a gimped experience. I think that's the biggest reason you see so many people ask what level they should be for dungeons cause being overlevelled or underlevelled feels shit.
I must have missed something, why is someone suddenly seething about P3 out of nowhere?
>>499759067No but still worth playing. I think you just asked this to stir some drama.
>>499759452No, you didn't miss anything. Guy really decided to invent a boogeyman and then started hollering at it.
>>499759452He got called out for his obvious falseflag shitposting and is now having a mental breakdown trying to obfuscate it.
>>499759452/pg/ schizos woke up and decided to shit up the place.
>>499759306>making you feel like you need to enter dungeons at the exact right specific levelyou just go from one dungeon to the next and if you managed to overlevel yourself the game basically corrects you every dungeon also has some enemies that are way under the average level so you specifically aren't going into turnbased for every single fight even if you are on the opposite extreme
>>499759452Schizos need their boogeymen
>>499759452I made fun of someone I knew was a P3 faggot from /pg/ with an obvious posting style here >>499758241 and the dude lost his mind
>>499759452P4fags mad people finally played and loved P3
>>499759452It sounds like the resident dramaschizo from /pg/, which is originally from /smtg/. I told you fuckers he'd follow us, that nigger has nothing better going on in his life.
We all agreed the dragon temple is the best dungeon by far
>>499759584They played the wrong version unfortunately.
>>499759526To a degree sure but I still think there should be some measures in place to make sure it isn't always one or the other. Like I think elite enemies should never be able to be insta killed and maybe the scaling for exp earnings should be more severe so you get more for being under and less for being over to make sure you stay in that goldilocks zone.
>>499759697A cat is fine too...
>>499759692Yeah, it's the great filter. A lot of people couldn't handle it
Ayy mods pls no ban
>>499759692I think it's the best dungeon, but I was pretty disappointed by the boss being just a dragon, even with the human on top of it. When the game was announced as Metaphor coming off of it being Project Re Fantasy there was a lot of detractors complaining that the game wasn't going to be the very traditional high fantasy it looked like as Re Fantasy, and I felt somewhat similarly then, but now I wish they leaned even further from those traditional fantasy elements because I think the world has a lot of interesting visuals in it, such as the Human enemies, but then you see a goblin or a dragon or some standard fantasy creature and it underwhelms in comparison.
>>499759692No, it's the same hallway copied and pasted over and over.
Enemy variety in this game is pretty bad
>>499759452I see the discord replied to this post en masse lmao
the more he posts the more pathetic it gets, honestly.
>>499759951Or maybe we actually enjoy games in this general. Must be a stark difference to what you're used to in /pg/

>Two days til my duel with Louis>have work in 5 hours this game has really put a hurt on my sleep schedule this week. I'll have to put off the kino that awaits me surely until tomorrow
>>499759861It's particularly noticable with the dragons since they are supposed to be super special creatures made entirely of magla but they just look like your average winged lizard.
Did I fuck up with trying to do the tower before the dragon temple?
>>499760185Kind of, but on the plus side you'll have an easier time with the dragon temple now
I can't wait to finish this game, 1 month leftIf I find myself playing persona 6 I'm gonna kill myself
>>499760185sort of, but I did it during a heat wave and thought the boss was a joke that I two rounded on hard so I didn't even remember what he did but some people reported him being a tough cunt All going to depend on your team
>>499760279That's an odd statement
>>499760017bitch the whole "do not listen to people that say bad things about p3 they shouldn't have human rights please look away" mass replies shtick is so old at this point, it sticks out like a sore thumb, and it makes it look like p3 is the jrpg equivalent of some leftypol gaslighting or bizarre propaganda shit all it took was one offhanded comment shitting on someone that started replying to themselves when they lost their gameplay argument because they were an obvious /pg/ shitposter to trigger something
>>499760390>talking about himself in the third person
>>499760390Okay but what if you repeated all that but in coherent English

>>499761062Thank you for summarizing all the things you've been doing since P3R got announced
the people lying on the floor are just like 4channerswe saw this same thing happening in every persona game, they show us how negativity kills a person from the inside metaphor goes a step further saying that this all starts from anxiety, which if overcome can become strength, but if you're unable to do that you become a 4channer
It's idlesday, don't forget to take a shit anons
what are you people doing holy shit
>>499761308behead all those who insult persona 3
>>499761263What are those people though, in all sincerity? I spent the whole game thinking they had some specific affliction but it never came up. Were they just supposed to be random dead bodies because of society being in such disarray? The blackness coming off them made me think they were struck with something specific, not just being random dead bodies.
DO NOT HOY IN THIS THREAD
>>499761479brainsickness = you give off anxiety at a faster rate than the king can take on for you
>set route to go to tower>3 days>"ok not a big deal I've got time">do dungeon on the way>one day passes>check route again>3 daysWhat?
>>499761552filtered
>>499761580But why?
>>499761263>Implying I'm not perpetually swimming in inhuman levels of negativity and anxiety and still pushing through itNot everyone here gives up on life
>>499761538
anxiety is what generates magla, if there is too much anxiety and the person afflicted by it is unabled to deal with it then they produce more and more maglathis is related to every tribe descending from humans (not only the elda) and everyone having access to magla (because everyone is anxious about something)
>>499761643Because you stopped and dicked around in a dungeon when Google Maps planned on you plowing through. Towns don't do the same thing though.
>>499761538there's no way they didn't do this on purpose
>>499761817>>499761479
>>499761817I'm not.
>>499761817I like that Louis never entirely admits how he is just full of anxiety and just flips from his above it all persona to butt mad. He really is a Char.

Man fuck the 4th chapter. This is by far the least fun I've been having in this game so far. I heard the dragon temple is good but everything else so far has been complete ass.

>when the most sane member of the group is the fairy
Just beat the game a little while ago and I'm salty that You can't unlock the King archetype, "It'd be too OP" isn't even a good excuse because the omnipotent orb is in the game. They made a whole transformation cutscene and you can't even use it baka. It's probably gonna be either DLC or Metaphor ReFantazio ReWrite Edition content.
>>499764734I was surprised you don't just use it and are gated to using one move like at the end of P4 and 5.
>>499760185Nah, don’t fight the skeletal mages though unless you’re sure you can take them down though
>>499764734>>499764848Maybe Prince was the compromise. It's already part of the group of "ultimates", and absurdly strong already.
>>499764734There wouldn't be anything to use it on. NG+ keeps progress but locks you out of archetypes until you unlock the relevant bond or part of the story.It is kind of a bummer there's no final setpiece fight where you just get use a bunch of flashy shit.
>>499765057They should've made the final phase a set piece cause he can barely take a hit as it is. Was also a bit let down that More is very squishy as well despite having multiple mid fight lines. So I had to hit him a few more times despite destroying him in one hit. Really didn't feel like they accounted for you having a +4 turns move.
I will not be buying any "royal" or "golden" or "reload" or "will smith" rerelease
>>499764959 They could've taken it even further with party wide heat riser x3 (basically the warlord synthesis but as a basic skill), drain all, victory cry (that's another accessory btw), Armageddon as a regular skill not synthesis, Royal Sword as a regular skill, give Radiance pierce, keep hero cry or maybe make a cheaper cost version, etc etc I could go on. Make it cost 100k MAG, all bonds rank 8, and require 100% full mastery. I don't see why not since they went through the effort of giving King an awakening cutscene.
I'll only buy the releases if I can transfer over my save data
>>499765607Atlus: you will
>>499765686I'll pirate it
Are we just dismissing a possible expansion via DLC? P3R could've been the beginning of that, ignoring how it of all things shouldn't have done that.
Should I make Junah a mage? I have no idea what to do with her. Also how do you get more masks?
>>499765607I will only buy it if it's an upgrade dlc this time.I can barely finish the game as is. the final month just feels like a slog.
I recognize the jewry of Atlus re-releases but it's also hard for me to get upset at them because I always end up enjoying them and they rarely seem like downgrades from the original. I feel like I got more out of SMTV:V this year than I did some entirely new releases despite having played the original beforehand. I don't think they're all good, and I skipped Catherine's and Radiant Historia's because they looked shitty, but I wouldn't be complaining if they did a Metaphor re-release so long as it felt on par with Royal or Vengeance.
>>499766082Faker/Trickster for her royal archetype and cleric if you want a dedicated healer. You get mask material from enemies and shiny spots. Not much point in building anything else.
>>499766082Go to Akadaemia and you can make them. She's good as a mage, but most of the game I had her on Dancer with a Trickster mask.
>>499766082Keep Junah restricted to Faker and Masked Dancer.
>>499766153I don't think there's anything wrong with them other than the fact that you're paying full price for something you already own the majority of, they should give discounts to previous release owners
>>499766153I feel like SMTVV was fine becuase it was a console port if anything as the original was locked on the Switch which means I never played it but I still have never played P5 Royal. Game is just too big. Honestly if it wasn't because of me being unable to control the urge to play it now I would have waited like a year before playing this in case they released a new version where I would have gotten that.
>>499766261>>499766284>>499766329Thanks anons. Will do that
Where specifically in the final dungeon am I supposed to grind for XP/AXP/MAG?
Am I missing something or there's 0 reason to use any other class other then Prince once you unlock it for Will, especially when you give him the one tun synthesis accessory?
>>499768071I don't think there is. Resist All's just too good to pass up.
imagining Will as a naive idiot with zero sexual awareness ripe for bullying
where do i get material to make junahs mask?
>>499768275I like that they let him speak unlike Persona protagonists, but I wish he had more of a clear personality. Despite speaking I feel like he actually could have gotten away with not speaking, while I think P3 and P5 would benefit with more defined protagonists. You don't really get or need more from Will than he's noble and wants to help those in need, which is the kind of basic thing that can be gathered just from his actions.
>>499768071There's a passive to cut synth cost in half somewhere. So that + sash = easy spam. In combat though not really outside merchant grinding.
>>499768405Enemies drop them and you can buy them after Virga Island, I think, I don't remember when exactly they become available to buy.
>>499768275Mnyes.
Since doing a dungeon adds 1 day to your trip regardless is there any downside in going to a dungeon that's one day away and then just returning to town and then skipping right past it the next time since either way it'd be 1 day added?
>>499767760Right before the final save point. Use Akademia to respawn the enemies.
>>499769121If you're in gauntlet runner v1 or v2 you miss a nighttime camp opportunity on the night of finishing the dungeon (and can set off the next day no problem), but for some reason if you do it in the v3 you're forced to stay in the dungeon you just cleared.
>>499768071wait until you unlock the 9999 damage synththat shit is just so fucking stupid
how hard is to get the true ending without following a guide and being blind?
>>499769906too hard for you
>>499769906Long as you aren't purposefully wasting days doing nothing its hard not to get everything done with a week to spare. There's only early bad ends not a true ending as such. At worse you miss out on some of the go around and talk to everyone dialogues that Persona does. Also weirdly they make a big deal of you killing the dragons despite it not really effecting anything.
>>499769906There is no true end and the game is incredibly easy to get everything done in. The time management in this game is a mere formality.
Name the sequel.
I really hope Drakedios isn’t a nuke. I like The Sword and they have a song called Fire Lances of the Ancient Hyperzephyrians and now that possibility is all I can think of.

>>499772790Hey pot
There's no polishes in this game
>They barely have any gameplay Nice bait
>>499772790Reminds me of the hilarious irony of the people who interpreted Persona 4 as Kanji being gay and Naoto being a trans man when the entire point of their arcs were learning to be comfortable with themselves NOT being those things despite people pushing them to it. Laughably acting like the bad guys in their stories.
>>499771763Unlike the pure japs who never draw gayshit
I forgot that the length of this game means it's going to be a while before we can have active heated discussions. It's not like P3R or VV where 90% of those games have an existing foundation to use.

>>499776037I don't see how anyone with blm, lbbq in description is a centrist. Game is not woke but as someone at the end I don't know what would disappoint them when it's always talking about equality, protecting the weak and marginalized like every jrpg. It's the most safe shit that would only make a minority of extremists upset and they likely aren't playing.
>>499776424Metaphor's dub is mostly rock solid.
The game's message is very much about "social justice", just in the traditional sensible sense (we should use society's resources to elevate the less fortunate for the benefit of society overall) and not the modern American identity politics sense (if you disagree with me about the minutiae of gender politics you should be sent to a gulag)You cannot interpret it the way the devs intended if you can only see things through the lens of /pol/ or Twitter
>>499776424The quality of a dub is never relevant.
>p5r>good dublol. lmao. meanwhile the only reason the metaphor dub is tolerable is because it doesn't have any of that '-kun' and '-senpai' shit
>>499776668If people get filtered by Naoto saying "I am a woman" they're gonna get filtered by like 80% of the character arcs in this game
Sure, recommend the voices everyone have heard before and not give new talent a chance. I sure would love to hear Blackbeard/Yujiro/Xehanort/Solid Snake whenever Heismay talks.
>>499776773That's more or less the same problem. Kanji and Naoto are just insecure about what they enjoy because it doesn't conform to societal expectations, which makes sense as a theme for a game aimed at teenagers in 2000s Japan, but people read a bunch of stuff into it that simply isn't there in the source material.

The final 30 days are so boring.
At least in your general you'll get asspats and sympathy how Atlus stole your 9 line romances from you from other retarded Bioware-tier fans
>>499783962Not really. I'm glad there's no useless romance in Metaphor.
>>499783962This post >>499783830 was referring to you by the way.
>>499784091P3P Theo best romanceBecause it's not. You just fuck in FemC's dorm.
>>499784414This, but you instead. You can suck off P5 there and screech about how evil P3 is there in comfort. Just fuck off and do it permanently.
>>499783838Eldan superiority. Make him wallow in shame.
>brings up romance completely unprovoked when no on else mentioned anything about it to seethe about it>brings up P3 completely unprovoked when no one else mentioned anything about it to defend itThis nigger's not even trying anymore. I'm tired of Personiggers making everything about Persona. Nobody cares man. Go away.
>>499783894Primitive. Can't build proper roads outside cities.They have pidgeons. But given monsters fly in the sky they're likely prone to be eaten.
>>499784771this game has no romance thoughthis thread is about this gameyou're just going to have to deal with it and maybe make out your weird Persona (that nobody mentioned until you) obsession out on a punching bagbut mostly I think you should fuck off to /pg/ and stay there
>>499781481Nah that's gay he should be my concubine
>>499784771Romance is not something that Persona invented, my little zoomer bro.
>>499785016>>499785103If this game has no romance then there is no reason to bring romance up and yet you keep doing it nonetheless. If you want to talk about romance, do it in a general that gives a shit. Nobody cares. Fuck off.
>>499785201I'll bring up whatever the fuck I damn well please and you'll seethe and have a meltdown several times a thread.
This game has no garbage romances like other Atlus games and I quite enjoy that. They added little hints to some of the links as a little tease, like Three Eyes. It's nice.
I've spent my whole life shipping for games regardless of whether or not romance is present in the plot or gameplay. I ship my gayshit even if the protagonist can only romance women in-game. I ship my preferred male/female pairing even if the game canonically pairs said male with an inferior heroine. Canon isn't an obstacle for anyone with a half-decent Imagination stat.Spineless shippers who chain themselves to what they perceive as canon, as well as brainlets who can only experience and appreciate love for a character so far as their game's romance mechanic provides for them, are equally miserable creatures that will not survive melancholization in the New World.
>>499785201hope your janny application is accepted next time lil' bro
>and maybe make out your weird Persona (that nobody mentioned until you) obsession out on a punching bag>You can suck off P5 there and screech about how evil P3 is there in comfort.What did he mean by this?

>>499785870and then responds to his own post that he screencappedlol
>whispers softly in Louis's ear while violently ejaculating inside him: benis :DDD
This guy seething endlessly about romances being a Persona 3 cuck makes a whole lot of sense in retrospect.
there it is, I fucking knew it, Persona 3 just flew over my house!
It seems my superiority has caused some controversy. However, this is a Metaphor thread so I must ask you to stay focused on my friend Will's great adventure.
I'm still not convinced this isn't one person samefagging arguing with himself
A persona 3 violently ejaculating inside Louis' ear just flew over my house
>>499785526Will Strohl or Will Hulkenberg anon?
>discord raid
>>499786382every time someone mentions romance, the guy who is mad over there being none will spam, and then start spamming about P3 nextit's happened the last 4 threads in a row
>to get brawler to 3 slots you have to have 5 courage>so it's useless pretty much all game outside of putting its HP move on someone elsewhat were they thinking? Gunner, too
>>499786868Balance is honestly kinda shit, especially availability of certain archetypes and it only comes together in the final parts
>>499786868Brawler line being tied to Catherina's bond which is cockblocked by the story is already retarded enough. I don't understand what they were thinking with it.Still a shitload of fun though.
is eupha a virgin?
I have literally never seen a single post claiming that this game should have romance in this general but I constantly see people getting mad at people supposedly wanting romance and criticizing this game for not having it. Who are you talking about?
>I constantly see (made up bullshit that never happened)uh huh
Let it go lil bro
Dark Knight made my hard mode boss fights all extremely easy
This general is too fucking dumb. I get that most of you are /v/ tourists and haven't been around /vg/ for long enough to learn all the schizo tricks but you really need to be better at not getting baited.
>says retard who got baited
>>499784771He doesn't even like persona. Him shitting up /pg/ doesn't make him one of us.
>>499786510Between those two, I'd go for Will/Hulkenberg. Their dynamic in the epilogue makes me think it'd be great to see her lovely long legs locking around Will's hips after he's provoked her with his teasing. The way that Will incites her to be less knightly and personable and playful throughout the game makes them an endearing king/retainer duo. Will can make her want to spoil him and herself at the same time.
>>499785808Please respond, is there a mega folder out there somewhere?
Anyone have the Eupha Thinkan portrait?
>>499787624this 2bh
>>499787952Yes, but I forgot to save the link
>>499787559>Bounce Blackguard Hammer between Hulk and MC>Kill literally fucking everything
>>499787816I dunno he feels like a stereotypical Persona 3 fanboy to me. Doesn't like the romancefags attracted by 4 and 5 and constantly feels the need to bring up romance being the ruination of the series living rent free in his head.
>>499787951Nice and classy.For me, it's unironically WillNeuras. I don't give a fuck about anyone but him and Basilio. Happy, youthful and patient partners with socially broken losers is the best. It's unorthodox and makes no sense to everyone else, I know it, but they both really clicked for me.
>>499763289>only two people will win the bag I wonder if it's also going to be mass-produced for sale. I love an official cosplay product.
why haven't the Japanese drawn Junah porn yet
>baby human = dead baby>mustari human = represents mustari>egg human = ???
>>499788552She's ugly
>>499788380Believe me, I've dealt with his shit for long enough, he doesn't like ANY persona games. If P3 is brought up out of nowhere, assume it's another false flag and immediately ignore the conversation.
>>499788552They haven't gotten to the part in her bond where it's revealed her actual body is a doll yet.
>>499788610Fair enough. Wouldn't be the first time I've seen a schizo just attach themselves to random groups to stir shit.
>>499788572There are different kinds of humans born from different situations. Some are born from a particular melancholy, while others are more naturally brought around like Avades and the sandworm.
The longer I look at Will the more I realize he looks retarded
>>499786510Strohl Hulkenberg
>>499788552Same reason fujos are still drawing exclusively Strohl.Will take weeks for them to get to anyone's final rank and right now it's only out of character Brigitta and dommy mommy Hulkenberg who's probably the biggest spaz of the party
>Strohlenburg>Junasilio>Euphadeni
>>499788416I'm actually a Will/Basiliofag foremost, but I'd delightedly eat up Will/Neuras content too. Walk tall, anon of exquisite tastes.
>The Mustari use handshakes as a form of affection because their masks prevent them from kissing
Do we ever get to see Heismay's wife or son?
>>499789426>spoilerHe's a siscon but is probably actually a cuck.>>499789475Incredible. I have a Will Neuras fic sitting, waiting to be spellchecked but I haven't gotten around to editing. Was hoping to write two more before posting, but I'll have you in mind when I create the rest of them.
I'm starting to fear Dragon Temple was the game's peak. Is there seriously no other large dungeon in this game?
>>499790167the final one which is literally the same thing in some ways.
>>499788552Shrimply she is not sexy enough to catch their attention, most popular artists are usually secondaries who don't play through the games. They will draw whoever is the sexiest and trending on social media. That is Brigitta and Hulk now.
>>499783365I feel like there is no way that Hulkenberg would be okay with him running off to another country without at least his personal guard being with him. She was already chasing him around town when he snuck out of the castle. It would most likely be Strohl, Hulkenberg, Gallica and Neuras for returning cast.
>>499790302I want to say that's not true, but thinking about nip artists who have hundreds of lewd pieces of popular girls, yeah, it's usually whoever's on the box art and getting instagram cosplay.I saw a Hulk cosplayer from before the game was even out, meanwhile, Junah has arguably the easiest design outside her hair and I don't think anyone will touch her.
I just maxed Ninja on Heismay, is that passive that halves enemy hit as busted as it sounds like it is?
>>499789084Garbage ship. Strohl can't even appreciate the simple joys she finds in food.
>>499789770No. The mother of his son is never even mentioned.
>>499790839yes, that's why it costs like 40k mag to learn it
*helps you*
>>499791003>not being grossed out by your girlfriend but loving her anywayGet a girlfriend anon.Their mutual pining for protecting their King is all they need.
reminder that STR Will is canon.
>>499789770Well his son is there in the tent, stuffed inside the discount pickle jar, but I'm not about to go peeking inside.
>>499790475Realistically, Hulk would want to go with him. I could still see the current playable cast getting thrown away for a sequel though. Imagine the seethe if Will went off with Gallica and Catherina to a new country and he could actually romance those two plus the new girls he meets, but not Junah, Eupha, or Hulk.
>>499791813Fuck dude I felt awful during his Rank 6-7 story. It hits different when you've cremated someone before.
>>499791432I would kill it for 4 exp.
Are Ishikia wings and Paripus tails erogenous zones?
>>499791298Gonna keep him on Ninja for now but I assume I'll need to inherit it when I get his royal class. Speaking of. Any tips on what classes to get early for Will?
sex
God damn you weren't kidding about dragon shrine that bitch is LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG. Been going for like 4 hours now and only just got the elevators working.
Do we ever see other elda in this game?
>>499793257Yes
>>499793257No
How do I even unlock the royal classes for characters? It says I can now access them, and yet I don't see them on the archetype list.
>>499793257If you played the game, you'd wouldn't ask this.
>>499793213I was leveled enough to overworld battle everything in there minus the ears and it only took me an hour tops, maybe 45 minutes. It's wild how much time combat adds up to
>>499793389Talk to more
>>499793401Use proper grammar please.
>>499793213Doing it in one day before most of the other dungeons in that area because I figured I'd get Eupha cost me pretty much all MP restoratives I had build up to that pointThe late game ones are easier in that regard though
>>499793491My autocorrect being faulty doesn't change the fact that you asked a stupid question.
>MC spambots global warlord +atk/+def>Heismay spams accuracy down move>Eupha spams attack down aoe>Hulk tetrakarns/uses random utility movesI've been absolutely rolling the game on hard like this post Dragon Temple.
>>499792415I've sat on the theory that ishkia through evolution lost utility of their wings.They remind me a lot of the Ixali from ff14, who as a species used to be able to fly, and are incredibly innovators and create hot air baloons to simulate natural flight. Something Neuras was thinking of.However, being connected through the back, they probably have nerves that come from the spine that would make the the humerus sensitive.Parapus 100% likely have sensitive ears and their tails are extensions of the spine. It would probably hurt more than feel good if yanked or toyed with.
Why is the final dungeon such a joke>rest area>unlimited farming/mp items>crystals to smash and make boss weakerThis is weird lol
>>499793637I'm not the person you responded to. Also, mobilefags deserve the rope.
>>499793257I don't know
>>499793747It's a point of no return. If the game didn't provide the means for you to grind, you could potentially be stuck unable to beat the game.
>>499793257Maybe
>>499793670uhhhhhhhh you're supposed to be using prince and royal archetypes chud
yuropbros, not like this
Let's not turn the game giving you absolute build freedom into a negative. Rather have that than SJ's bullshit with the MC, or Nocturne practically forcing you to Freikugel spam.
>only Strohl can use hassou tobishit game
>>499793257three eyed brown ones at the end of the game
>>499793585I farmed the red crystal so fucking much in that dungeon to regain MP that I levelled up 7 times and amassed like 500k MAG and got around 200 AEXP items. I never needed anything for the rest of the game. I think I somewhat overdid it.
>>499793993I didn't grind or level at all my first playthrough, since I just wanted to speed through the story and do sidequests on ng+I couldn't beat the final final boss the normal way because I skipped every optional fight.
>>499793702The memorandum says that some of the tribes were created artificially, and it's my theory that Ishikia are one of them. With their weird faces and flightless wings, they look like someone's attempt to genetically engineer angels.
Taking forever for these normalfags streamers just to reach Brilehaven.
>>499794223>absolute freedom>every party member has one super archetype that's a step above any othersI mean, sure, you can do something different with them, but in most cases not very good
>>499794831>normalfags streamersfor what purpose are you watching such things?
>>499794831>watching streamers Go back and stay there
>>499793670for me, it's>Junah -Vidyartha and debilitate, heal if needed (almost never)>MC stands there, maybe hits the guy, who cares>Hulk casts tetrakarn on anybody, hits stuff>Strohl charges and then uses 22 mp assrape move to hit everything for 8k damageI am guessing when I get charge on Junah (from having the right archetypes equipped) this will become even more faceroll
>>499795008>>499795016It's lonely at the finish line...

>they let you keep the lorebook on ng+thank christ
>>499795168get a job
>>499794809The Ixal in FF14 are also artificially created. Which is why I thought of them.They have similarities and also come from similar backgrounds. Being used as cargo carriers and foot soldiers for an insanely advanced magical and technical society that had the means to cause continent scale destruction.That said, making fake seraph is a very SMT thing to achieve and given their intelligence, I would guess they were supposed to be a sect of higher forms of humanity. Smaller noses means a worse sense of smell though, so they probably fell short on aspects that would make them predators and would have relied on inventions and science to remain top of the new foodchain.
>>499795168>check korean artist twitter>Wil Wil Wil>Louis Louis Louis>no Alonzo>will take weeks for them to catch on that there's apex revenge porn fuel to drawWait it out like everyone else.

>>499795348They're humankind. They don't need a strong sense of smell to be at the top of the food chain.
Has anyone tried stacking Eupha's 500 attack staff with Utilitarian's Manual? Does it let you cast synthesis for free or do you still use one turn crystal?

The GAME is UNFINISHED
Speaking of Junah. I was told to go for a mix of Faker and dancer but should I just inherit the good skills onto Junah from Faker or should I wear the Faker mask?
>>499797404Correct I haven't finished the game yet
junah a shitsame with euphathere's only 1 late game companion that's useful and that's basilioand heismay takes a while to ramp up to being good at his default class so before that having him as a buffbot seems more beneficial
>>499797323who are you quoting? Why do you speak like a retard?
>>499797553Nobody uses Basilio and berserker is shit
>>499797413>I was toldDon't listen to anyone ITT.None of these idiots who are yelling about builds have enjoyed the game. You would genuinely have better luck asking on /v/.
>>499797553Hulk is better than Heis, Bas is OP and that's why he comes so late, masks are useless and fuck and that poster is literally mentally retarded, and the best party is objectively Bas, Prince, Strohl, and Junah but that's boring as fuck and the game is easy anyways
>>499797609I'm quoting a retard who doesn't use masks because he uses the 1 turn amulet instead to spam charge like a retard, retard, aka, (You), retard.
>>499797553I never used Basilio, he comes way too late so I didn't even want to bother giving him all the archetypes and spamming fruits on him to get him to a level where he can contribute
>>499797663retard
>>499797793The game shoves a fight in your face immediately after you get him that practically screams at you to use him.

>>499798058>bro just use 2-3 turns for one moveNo thanks
Sorry for asking
crying
>>499797896I basically spammed Frost Tactic or whatever it's called for most of the game (the General move that creates an ice weakness), sometimes I needed to create an initial ice weakness with dancerWorked for the whole game including superboss Luis
>>499797413main trickster, cast Vidyartha and debilitate and then whatever and then repeat every fight Once you unlock Persona Master, if you have the classes needed for charge, then swap to it and put those two moves on it, but likely you will just stay trickster until Prince allows you to have it ready since it counts as every archetype

>>499801150So did Bas love Junah or Rella? Because I got the sense he was a simp for both. Boy's dumb and seems to follow anyone who bothers to even ask his name.
>>499801389He liked Junah, but he loved Rella.
>>499774968I'm not watching that video, but I thought the game was quite well balanced. Maybe Atlus' best balanced game since SMT IV:A.
>>499801357Nah, I'm gonna co-, I mean, rationalize by sayingGallica was just carrying it around, without it changing her in any way.
A lot of the models in this game aren't great, so I'm kind of surprised that Louis looks better in his model than his portrait. I love the dark bags around his eyes and his pupils being so big on his model, neither of that is on his portrait.
do equipped archetypes determine stat allocation on level up?
I'm craving more JRPGs after playing this. Anyone know if the SaGa games are worth it?
>>499801389He tells you in his max bond scene that he thought he loved Rella the same way that Fidelio loved Junah. Neither of them even spoke of their feelings to the other party though. He's also not half as dumb or desperate as you're suggesting. It's not surprising that he would fall for the angelic person who brought him back from the brink of death and showed him kindness that he'd never been afforded by a non-Paripus before.
>>499783365If they made Metaphor 2 I'd rather it just be an anthology and not follow the same protagonist. Maybe his book could be relevant to the story or something, that's all I'd want.
>>499802139the new remake is reviewing among real people (i.e. not journo faggots) really well, and it's the most I've seen a SaGa game sell on Steam. I hear it's a good place to start for beginners to the series, too. I'm going to play it myself after Red Dead Redemption
>>499802098nope
Basilio had a hard life...
>>499802139If they are worth it or not that's on you. They are all about hardcore gameplay and total freedom, but the plot and characters aren't that important.
>>499801813I think it's pretty clear it's this. Mom was guiding Gallica (and the rest) through the voices and fake memories, but Gallica herself existed and had her own personality and growth from being around everyone. The fact that Gallica is still the same in the epilogue, after the mysterious voice has completely gone, means they're separate beings.So fairy fuckers are still in the clear.
>>499802491nice. thanks
>>499802651But he had the strength to endure it. I will protect and cherish his smile forevermore.
>>499797735>Hulk is better than HeisNah. Heismay can just sit there and steal all the turns of an enemy who just beast eye'd. He need so much to get his final classes that you have a huge range of skills to slap on him. Also nearly always going first so incredibly useful buff, debuff, heal, whatever so nobody wastes a turn.
>>499801813You're correct. Mom even talks TO Gallica.
>>499802669SMT hardcore or harder?
>>499803025you've convinced me to pick heismay back up againgoing to drop basmy loadout will be prince, royal warrior, royal knight and then i'll try and get royal ninja or whatever the fuck heis hasending the game with the starter trio
>>499799629And they are already working on the next game without making any improvements
>>499803171Is hard in the sense that there is permadeath and absolute freedom. So they are harder if you don't know what you're doing.
>>499801357Another shipper cucked
>>499802249I mean dumb in an inexperienced with life overall way. He's smart where it counts, like calling Louis out on his bullshit. But you could easily trick him if you tried. Not quite naïve but not quite a complete idiot.
>Heismay has to jog like a madman during cutscenes where the rest of the party is leisurely strollingLel
Going to live in Shinjuku with my twink pseudo dad
>>499797246Thank you
>>499804468Are you going to fuck him?
>>499804468I wish you got the option to early game over to do this. End with replicated constructs of your friends minus post human traits in a world that's only Shinjuku. No Minato, Shibuya or other parts of Japan.
>go to dungeon that takes 3 days to get to. >make it to top of tower. with no mp left. >camp for next day and go back >its raining. >can't do tower. >next day fight boss i can't beat it and no where to grind. welp thats great I guess i will load my game from 6 days ago. i love having a time limit and wasting days just like wasting my irl. so fun.
>>499805115get to the top, save game, go visit more, leave, go rattle some bones with wizard equipped, enjoy your mp and experience
Wtf is this kingdom hearts nobody heartless shit
>>499805115bro your 5 minute mage grind?bro your in combat regen?bro your just crushing the tower anyways, fuck bad weather?Bro your lowering the difficulty to normal because no dungeon in the game should take 2 days to do?
>>499802139SaGa games are great, however they do ask more of you than most JRPGs. I like Metaphor a lot but through a lot of fights I jus threw myself at it and came out the other end fine. SaGa demands you come to understand its systems or lose a character for real. Learn to spark the moves you want, don't over grind as enemies scale up (it isn't as bad as people make out), make sure you have some random item from hours ago to stand a chance in a fight, actually figure out what you're even meant to do next. Personally love 3 cause it is a non-linear open world game on the snes, rather than a direct narrative you'll bounce from weird events till you eventually find the main content. Frontier is also for such a weird setting including a whole kamen rider story. But 2's remake is pretty great so far, and Emerald Beyond from earlier this year has a combat system I'd put above press turn.
>>499805578>enemies scale up>mfw I ruined my Last Remnant playthrough by avoiding anything I thought would level me up because everyone kept saying not to level.NTA but how bad is it, really?
>>499804668Nyes
>>499804468>twinkMore? twink? what?
why do i even bother buying equipments from shop?there are tons of good ones from stealing and dungeoning
>>499806018Last Remnant is notably shitty in that regard while in SaGa it is overblown. It takes a while for enemies to reach the next bracket and be swapped out. In games like 3 it is even a bit messed up as each enemy type has their own ranking. So often some groups of enemies are way further behind. You "level up" every fight as at least one character will gain some stats. So in theory enemies shouldn't out pace you. I've never had any issue and you'll usually want to be fighting higher level enemies to "level" faster and spark new moves more often.
>>499806460Give him extra eye liner and he could be your mom.
>>499805401im talking about the tower with shrek >>499805491nope I refuse to grind. if I can't min max and beat a boss while being 10-15 levels below what I should be then its bad.
>>499807789you "grind" to get your MP back, dingus. Have fun wiping and wasting days, I guess.
>>499808392theres nothing fun about overworld combat. id rather they removed it since it adds nothing except makes tedious stuff like you mention a game mechanic.
Is the NG+ exclusive boss worth replaying the whole game for? I do like the idea of unlocking every archetype on everyone and making autistic minmaxed builds but I don't know if I have it in me yet
>Visit /v/ now that Ive beaten the game>There's 3 threads crying about how this game is wokeHoly shit even after 3 weeks?
T-thanks
>>499809123You know it will not go away until they get a waifu edition with a bikini spring quest and a new teen girl.The only games /v/ doesn't complain about feature one of the two.
imagine my disappointment when manor of the ascendant wasn't kino sky dungeon like nanako's dungeon in persona 4 but jungle temple copy pasta #8383
>>499809123Isn't the game cracked so poorfags can play it now
>>499809558>if Louis gave me the slightest reason to switch sides, I would dump your ass in a secondGee whiz, Strohl
>>499809123>Visit /v/Mistake #1 >finishing the game Mistake #2
>>499809558>>499810086Considering how quickly he pledged himself to you is it truly surprising?
For Metaphor 2 I only care about Louis coming back as either the villain or as our ally that joins us through a common threat. Atlus must have learned something from Akechi an the party did already show some sympathy
>>499809123Wait for the Switch 2 port and watch all that magically vanish
>>499810086I mean, I get it.
>>499810642I would like for him to remain a piece of shit. Honestly takes a strong writer to make an asshole likable as they slowly assimilate into the hero's party. He'd continue to be a strength obsessed outcast and routinely shit on by Strohl and Huklenberg but I'd like to see that hatred scratched away slowly over the course of a social link that involves them both the way Neuras was with both Will and Gallica.
>>499810642I feel this cast would get stagnant in another game
>>499810481>>499810668>spends the first half of the game seething and aching to kill Louis>finally gets close enough to smell Louis's shampoo>"there doesn't need to be any more bloodshed"He's just that weak to elda pussy
>>499810642No thank you. I appreciate that he clung to his ideals until his very end. He's not made to be an Akechi.
>>499811165canon and based
>>499811165At least his Joanna sympathy was consistent I guess
>>499811363Just wait until they show Miss Charadrius
>>499811670I love that they did this
>>499810642He's not the same as Akechi, Akechi's goals were filmsy at best and he wanted to kill himself after killing Shido.Louis's vision was far too important to be swayed to (You)r side, the only thing I could understand if they 'brought him back' is if he turned into a dragon, given that you don't see his corpse at all and dragons can manifest from magla with a strong purpose. So his last will would remain in the form of a dragon
Hey guys when's the earliest you can get 25 archetypes to unlock Soul Hacker?
>>499811003I would like that, he can't just join and be a good guy but the thing with him is, he doesn't "hate" any of the party. I could see him be the force that is like "you beat me so you better do right else I might try something again". But there was always some respect going on and we did beat him at his own game. He has more to learn to be a normal person and trust in others I'd say>>499811363 I just used Akechi as an example, he is unlike him in all ways. Louis's goals in essence were still about the general good. So if we can show him we have a better ideal he would support us. He was too doompilled to believe in us but isn't above reason.
i wonder why the mc has that magla particle effect at his feet while in dungeons like the accumulators you see in the citiesthen i unlocked princedoes it have to do with the fact that he's basically like a dragon? a pure magla construct? but he retains the effect even despite merging with his flesh body
Damn this early game is kinda rough, im in a perpetual state of being too strong for some dungeons and woefully underprepared for others. Apparently im supposed to have studied 15 archetypes already and im a few short cause i havent met the level reqs for them.
>>499811981I agree with you on him being idealistic and selfless. He is just an extremist but thinks he's doing ultimatly the right thing. But god no please no dragon. That reminds me too much of Tales of Beseria, too. This won't happen alone because of his appeal to women with his pretty design.
>>499812869I never finished Tales of Beseria but I am aware of Eizen's story. Honestly, I really liked the angle the writers were trying for by giving us a non-ultra happy party but were ultimately limited by the brand and Baba's incredibly bad decisions. Best parts of TotA was when everyone was absolutely miserable.A sobering sequel or expansion DLC would be an instant buy, but I know it wouldn't go over well with fans who want thoughtless dating simulators. I would be curious to see how they do it because SMT has always been the fucked up side with Persona as the shounen side. Save for Door-kun.
The dragons are so lame and boring after the surreal human designs.
>>499814071Nah they cool
>>499812106iirc I unlocked it right after getting Eupha
>>499813942Yeah I won't say more to Beseria but it's a great game, you should consider it. It has raw emotion at some parts that are great. I'm generally not against non-happy storylines but with Metaphor who knows. We did have more mature stuff in there and they avoided obvious cliches, so I would be hopeful. For Louis I'm just selfish and want more for him. Plus he has still major development potential after all that happened.
my wife she needs me...
I still can't believe how ridiculous the headband horns plot point is. I'm meant to take it seriously but it feels like such a shitpost
Answer style mage academy dlc with shota Louis and loli Rella flashbacks seems very likely I highly doubt they modeled loli Rella for just one scene
Ive been following this guide but im somehow a few imagination points short of being able to confront that merchant in Trad, its fucking over for me isnt it?
>>499815615nigga I didn't follow a guide and still had like 10+ days left over to idle around at the end
>>499814675I tried, I did. It just was not working. I got to ice town and was completely put off by sakuraba's weak ost and feeling like I was still playing Xillia 2 with somehow less interesting assets and dungeon design.
>>499809558why is the protagonist's name redacted? are you using your real name or something kek
>>499816204I named my protag Ten and my literally me Lemons.
>>499815615>guide It was over for you from birth
>>499815931I had 0 days and still couldn't max out everyone lel
is eupha crushing on our mc or is she canadian?
>>499811003If they do stick with this party that could work to make the dynamic more interesting. Or if it changes completely but it still contains homages I can see them keeping some Lucifer type figure as an antagonist with a different name call back.
>get to the sleeping dragon in the mines at the beginning of the game >go straight to him for shits and giggles thinking I’ll probably just die >actually beat himtoo bad he runs away though but this is a good game.Btw, is there any benefit to finishing the game in hard mode or is it just a user preference thing
So humans can be tamed? How did the milf get the baby not to eat her?
>>499816448So I guess that when Louis turned him into a human, he became a Mega Ten?
>>499817504Hard adds some extra fight challenge before you get the absolutely busted abilities that let you ignore it towards the end
I am at that bandit cave dungeon north of Trad, I am able to grind Arch Exp items from these mimics but I have read here its best to do all that grind in the final dungeonshould I just do all that there
>>499817597You joke but it was my intent. Had no idea my choice would lead to accidental kino.
>If you live by a creed show me it's strength KINOOOOOO
>>499818426Crazy good foresight. Honestly I had a similar moment in my playthrough because I called the MC being a human during my first hour of playing the demo
>not the SMT logomissed opportunity

the strength of the common man makes no sense in this world. the level 1 human could massacre a military fort but those mustari guards are just chilling in the lower levels of the bonuis dungeon after the dragon temple.
>>499815357Anything in the near past wouldn't get to use the archetype system so I'm betting that kind of backstory might be in the manga or anime if it gets one
>>499819039Should've been the Kuzunoha Detective Agency logo
>>499817521That human was about as "tamed" as big predator animals in zoos are. She raised it and it figured that it didn't need to bite the hand that feeds it. I would expect it to eat Joanna if she ever let it get hungry.
there's no way I'm equipping this, I know how this goes
I have all virtue stats maxed, no bonds at night to do, is there anything to do during nighttime that is worthwhile at the endgame?

>>499816883Eupha is the only companion (and I guess Galicia) with any romance adjacent content. Her endgame conversation with her brother involves her nearly proposing to you.>>499820620Spa in Alta for more mag or just collesium runs
>>499821145Junah and Catherina both have romantic feelings for the MC as well, though they don't talk about it as much or openly as Eupha.
>>499794287the pining was cute and it was nice to not have the MC be completely clueless about it but the talk with her bro before the end felt a tad much
>>499804996There is a gameover there isn't there? It just says Fantasy is Fiction though, there's no cutscene associated with it.
