真 /smtg/ plays anchor post

the new event for mt and mt2 will accept signups at any date the event is still running.
and if you only have time for one of the games, that's okay. pick which one you'd rather play.

真 /smtg/ plays page:
>https://rentry.org/shin-smtg-plays
any suggestions for the event or rentry page?

and let me know if you disagree with skipping the poll process for deciding this event. it was suggested i pick something random as a new start for these events and these two games always ranked highly anyway so the interest was there.

>have you played either of these games before?

Hard for some to accept but yes. Because they put effort into writing their relationship. The music, art, and writing all went together. For people who want to see the traditional Hero/Heroine back in mainline but expanded to give both of them more depth this is a good sign. It means character driven narratives are appealing to mainline players and Atlus knows it. Every game will have fujo bait but to give the MC a main homo relationship in VI is very unlikely because it would be reusing the same gimmick twice. AKA, you'll be getting the bench back in VI but for a girl next time.
>>
>>541733631
Hmmm... get rid of the bench and find another way for the characters to dump all thier development, that bench shit was annoying as hell.
>>
>>541736228
They reused too many scenes is the issue. Have the bench with more variety in poses and scenarios.

No one would bitch and moan about the chaos end if they just explained it better.

At the very least they owe us interviews and dev materials but they didn't even give us that yet.

Funny how you say that, as people said the same thing when someone criticized Pokemon Sun & Moon. Or Dark Soul III. Or Sonic Colors. Or Silent Hill 3. Or Twilight Princess. Or Path of Radiance. Or Birth by Sleep.
And we know what happened to those franchise in terms of quality.
>>
If you go around /v/, resetera, reddit, NeoFag, GameFAQs and they all agree that a game has fun gameplay... despite their cultural & political differences... maybe that game really has fun gameplay.
Atlus not making the game you dreamt of since 2016 is a different matter.
>>
>>541762660
Using other sites(Which are filled with people that have rarely ever played Megaten titles besides the nusona trilogy and maybe SMT IV) to prove a point is somewhat idiotic, as I can say that Resident Evil 6 is a masterpiece since there's posts out there about how the game is "fun" to play.

The thing that Vfags don't understand is that their combat system was a step back from IVA which had better speed, better buffs, and wasn't as easy to cheese. The friend meter was dumb but is still superior to the press-x-to-crit bar.
>>
>>541781049
I've argued this before but they will still insist V has dA bEsT cOmBaT. It's pure delusion. Even Nocturne has better combat IMO.

>>
>>541781049
>better speed
You mean just the actual gameplay speed? Yeah that's true. I don't think Vs is terribly slow by comparison though, you can skip animations.
>better buffs
I don't know, this seems subjective. Needing less stacks to maximize them but also needing to refresh isn't bad, it's just a different way of balancing things compared to infinite duration but needing to stack more while sometimes avoiding some arbitrary "too high, I dekaja now" threshold or being able to squeeze enemy press turns when some of them like to dekaja at one stack.
>and wasn't as easy to cheese
I'm unfamiliar with V cheese that isn't super inconsistent "stay at 1hp with Adversity and hope nothing goes wrong", so enlighten me as to more of V's cheese, but I didn't feel much difference in difficulty between both games aside from Apocalypse mode's hidden innate Sukunda making misses noticeably more common.

Basically all this to say that I enjoy both games, and don't see much difference in quality between the two.
>>
>>541775828
>What's your point?
Franchises will never improve if fans refuse to pull out the poisoned roots before it fully grows. All the games I've mentioned were the source of many issues for their respective series, but people dismissed the worries and criticism because "It's fun". Which is not a good excuse to defend bad products.
The poisoned roots started with Persona 4 and grew throughout the years, which began to infect the mainline SMT branch with SMT IV. People didn't bother to cut those roots with IV since it was the gateway to SMT for newcomers. They tried though with IVA, although it wasn't fully successful due to the huge amounts of defenders for the game. Now that root has grown more with SMT V and barely anyone is trying to stop this since it's an another gateway SMT.
Only god knows how horrid SMT VI will be since Atlus got away with a unfinished product that suffered from development hell and different directors.

That's technically true, but everyone who works at Atlus sees him as canonically gay.
It's like how Persona 2 allows Tatsuya to be romantically interested in Maya or Lisa, but the development team sees Jun as the canonical love interest.

There are things in nocturne I think are deep and its one of if not at times my joint favourite megaten game, but the relatively safe silent self insert protagonist with only some base traits here and there certainly isn't one of them.
The substance in what you're saying there really applies to Yuko and not demi-fiend himself, shes the character who embodies that era of listlessness.

I think if you're already making self insert protags you should go the full mile and let me fully customise the appearance.

If a character is a self insert blank slate, they should be customizable. The point is to see yourself reflected in the game.
If a character is silent but otherwise a fully fledged character, they shouldn't be silent. You're only doing it to try and please both sides. Self inserters be damned.
There is no in between that isn't poorly executed.

And it sucks. The personality is always "he's silent but uhhh that's actually his personality!". Link famously did it in BotW. What was a running joke about him never speaking became his actual personality. In Zelda's diary she goes into detail about how Link doesn't speak much and mostly motions around like a retard and how people keep their distance from him because he's strange. Bu then Zelda finally got him to talk to her after weeks of trust building. V is also heavily influenced by BotW. Vkun won't talk to anyone but Aogami says he talks to him plenty off screen. It's a stupid trope purely to appease self inserters.
>>
>>541825890
Are you advocating for Link to speak? You are calling the trope dumb while not really considering what the alternative would be.
>>
>>541826272
In all honestly if we have to keep making BotW type games where everyone is speaking with a VA, I think it would be fine. Anything that goes back to isometric dungeons he should be a blank slate. And the games have pretty much made that distinction already.
>>
>>541826471
The silent character known for being silent suddenly having a voice purely because the rest of the cast has voice acting now is a pretty weak reason. The open world reasoning makes no sense either because you spend hours in those game dicking around instead of following a linear narrative.
>>
>>541825348
Honestly I'm surprised Monster Hunter of all things was one of the first long-standing silent protag series to break the trend. ALONG with having levels of customization where you can make absolute clown characters,
Even the MC in MHStories 3 is going to be voiced.
>>
>>541827082
I wasn't bitching about open world but I agree with you. But I honestly don't think it's bad because they basically did exactly what I'm talking about in Metaphor and it wasn't bad at all. And I don't mean they made Will into a fully fledged character, because they didn't, just the style they choose where he speaks his choices out loud isn't bad. That's mainly where all his speaking lines are. Like if you gave Vkun a voice outside of battle he would also mostly be quiet except when making choices. I mean, he speaks in combat as it is. I know in Link's case all he does is grunt so that would be a step further for him but still.
>>
>>541827415
The character speaking their chosen dialogue options is a fine middle ground yes. I still think if you did that to Link though people would fucking riot. There are some things you just shouldn't change.
>>
>>541826272
>Are you advocating for link to speak

This circles back to V too because most people want to call him Kei Amemura and want to hear him speak. It's annoying to have a character that is not a self insert at all but was made mute and no-named to appease this almost non-existent group of people Atlus is afraid of annoying. They even talked about how giving Will a voice a might be a risk despite the fact he has hardly any characterization. People like their JRPG main characters to be an actual character. Leave the black slate self inserts for games with character creation in them.

We went to the zone, the auto factory zone, and chased down the demon that attempted to kill Nemissa. The rest of the gang decided to tag along and pooling all of their talents made the incredibly important contribution of... turning the lights on. Our resident internet tough guy and /k/ poster Six decides to vent his anger on the Newfag of the group while acting like a gigantic blubbering pussy and we corner Moowis in the control room of the factory where he ends up being more than meets the eye. We still scrap his ass and his soul flees into the virtual grand canyon where he finally expires and Nemissa's best lead on figuring out who she is dies with him. We do get the name "Manitou" again and still have the Illuminati to deal with so we check their IRC and are issued a public challenge from Finnegan. The newfag, his feefees still hurt by Six's melty, decides he can fight Fin alone and without demons and heads over to the battlefield to accept the challenge in our stead like a fucking retard.
As we prepare to rescue the idiot the illuminati's rivals make contact with us and gift us a sword made of grorious nippon steer forded one thousand times for our unintentional assistance to their aims and more than triples my already quite unga bunga physical output plus making it an AOE.

Did they change how the demon inheritance miracles work between V and VV? I could've sworn I remember having big fat green bars worth of bonus stats after keeping fusion material in my stock 20 levels in advance, and I don't have that in VV. I'm guessing it's to balance out the Haunt bonuses.
>>
>>541813070
There is no explicit Text in V that makes Bino out to be gay. Hell there is no explicit text that makes just Aogami out to be gay, all his dialogue is "I support you no matter what" or "I feel a higher calling to see your will realized", it's all subtext fags screeching about it.

Gay.
>>
>>541892276
Not really. Unless you think Amanozako flirting and being tsun was too subtextual. But not that I remember she says something like "you and I are meant to be" and that's plain text.
>>
>>541896008
OK, and now explain how this makes Aogami gay without using subtext in your explanation.
>>
>>541896629
Amanozako is made out of Aogami. She said her feelings came from that.
>>
>>541896885
What you're describing is what people call Subtext. Amanozako was made from an Aogami unit, therefore Aogami must have the same feelings and interpret those feelings in the same way. There is a leap in that argument. That is what a subtext is.
>>
>>541897132
Aogami units were mass produced. They are all identical. That's why.
>>
>>541897253
First and foremost Amanozako and Aogami aren't the same person. This is obvious but I feel I need to point it out. Second of all Aogami units AREN'T identical per the actual game, they are made up of different combinations of the three sacred artifacts of the original Amaterasu, Susano'O and Tsukuyomi.
>>
>>541896885
She's a soul that was planted into an Aogami-Type unit/husk, not from the Aogami-unit we fuse with.
>>
>>541897530
>hey are made up of different combinations of the three sacred artifacts of the original Amaterasu, Susano'O and Tsukuyomi.
They never said this.
>First and foremost Amanozako and Aogami aren't the same person.
Yes they are. Mythologically she's emotional vomit but in game they reinterpreted it as an Aogami unit the tengu fucked with. Her "base" as she calls it is where her feelings come from. And she says that directly in the game.
>>
>>541898178
I think you're mixing up the creation goddess and her.
>>
>>541899226
Yes anon, because Aogami acts just like a haughty valley girl and bails out on you on the first sign of trouble.
>>
>>541897253
>All identical
Which is why the husks all bare different skills? It's one of my annoyances with our Aogami, he should've had something to think about with them instead of nothing. Shouldn't the fact each of these had different skills, perhaps different views/personalities through them, give him pause & reflect on what it means to be "Aogami" since they're all just as "Aogami" as he is?

>>541899372
Isn't that what the Kurama Tengu says during the Zaou-Gongen quest? That Amanozako was a soul placed onto an Aogami in attempt to have their own Tengu Leader (or maybe creation goddess)?
>>
>>541900274
>Her "base" as she calls it is where her feelings come from
Her feelings for the protagonist because that's what she says. Everything else is due to what the tengu did. I don't know why you're going into this other shit.
>>
>>541902465
Yes that's right. She's only the same as Aogami in this one specific thing, being gay for the MC, everything else can be totally different.
>>
>>541903478
And what's the issue? She's supposed to be a kami Susano-o threw up because his emotions overwhelmed him.
>>
>>541906062
>What's the problem? There's no explicit text but
>But if you look at the Subtext...!
>>
>>541901856
>or maybe creation goddess
It was that. That was their major edit to try and make a leader for the tengu but it backfired because the resulting Amanozako was too rebellious and wouldn't listen to them. It's also why she has black outs because that soul is an entirely different individual and takes control of her occasionally.
>>
>>541906696
That's not what I meant. You're clearly upset she's saying her feelings come from Aogami. You're making an issue out of it when it mythologically makes complete sense. I said it to explain why they wrote that.
>>
>>541907092
Anon, I'm upset because you're making a subtext argument while trying to pretend it's not.

>It just makes so much sense if you think of [subtext]
>>
>>541907832
Will you get angry if I try to tell you that you're forcing it to be subtextual?
If Proto-fiends are mass produced, it means they are the same. Skill sets don't affect personality because nothing in game would imply that. Other demons don't have personality changes when learning skills, so why would they? There is no reason you wouldn't take that statement at face value.
Amanozako says her feelings for the protag come from the fact she was made out of an Aogami. That means every Aogami has those feelings because they are mass produced. What you're calling a jump in logic is actually putting two pieces of lore together about the same character. That's not subtext. She never says that her feelings come from her alterations, only her proto-fiend base.
>She's only the same as Aogami in this one specific thing
And that's what she says. If you want to get into how Aogami and Amanozako display that feeling, that actually has nothing to do with this and doesn't change her statement. Clearly they display that feeling differently, but feeling love and displaying it is two entirely different things.
>>
>/smtg/ is locked into a V discussion loop again
I sleep
>>
>>541911376
Wrong, all Protofiends feel the MC is their knowledge. Aogami sees that as his calling, Amanozako seems that as romantic love. This is because their personalities are different. The actual feeling is a sense of connection and completion. You need subtext to say that it is a romantic love for Aogami.

Aogami is straight but autistic and doesn't understand that his desire to be friends with Vkun has been taken as love and is now forced against his will into a relationship with him.

This feels like something Vkun would think so he keeps his distance from him.
>>
>>541963668
They both thought this about the other at first, leading to an unspoken yet palpable awkwardness at all times... Yet once when Vkun twitched at Aogami's hand accidentally touching him, they each overcame their inhibitions and fell into each other's hands. A kiss replaced the need for words, and finally they knew that they had found a beautiful partner to spend the rest of eternity with. The passionate yet gentle lovemaking that night sealed their bond and ensured that each would always carry the essence of the other within their bodies forever more...

I'm a Zoomer so the games all on 3ds I played in dub and I can't imagine them at all with sub now, but with V sub all the way. Vkun sounds way too fucking gay, and I hate Hayamin but I'm sure she's better than whatever the fuck toe sounds like in the dub.
Only exception is SJ since my favourite vas are there in the jp. SMT does a good jobs with their dubs typically imo regardless. DDS being really good for example. I'm a fan of the cast in jp, but dds didn't do anything for me

nocturne remaster uses unity which is known to be bad with modding. smt4 uses the EO engine, from what I believe at least, which nobody knows how to mod outside of changing graphics. the other games you can only edit what's already there, not add anything new, outside of P5 where how to do so is gatekept. it's a whole another story on it's own how 5 modders gatekeep modding tools from becoming public for stronger modding support for any atlus title, but i don't want to type it all out. this leads to v being the easiest to mod.

The CoV angel dungeon fucking sucks. The gimmick has no thought to it, you'll get to where you need to go and grab all chests eventually just by flipping every switch once. At least Ishtar's brap palace required a bit of maneuvering with the winds to get to places, and even that was inferior to the outdoor exploration. I figured that after having more time in the oven that they could cook an indoor area that was on par with an outdoor area.

To be honest I like Demon King Castle, I think its a good dungeon in general and the last wind puzzle is really cool.

I like some of the enemy interactions in Shakan, like luring Yurlungur into the bottom floor where he can't chase you but the actual gimmick is, as you say, pretty lackluster. It would be better if there were at least enemies in the gravity flip rooms.

>Only edited pre-existing virtual trainer battles and couldn't implement solo versions of the fights
We're so close to greatness, so close. And a disclaimer that I know the mod has its own things but just comparing with baseline since that's where I'm familiar with and what documentation? (hell, what inheritance on some skills)
>4HK
Not a fan with how ass their skillsets are + linear the fights goes. Take out Koumokuten and 99% of their threat level is gone since everyone else is with Dynes. The stats for 150 are fair, 300s is around some end-game bosses. Dekaja/Dekunda being required instead of buffing/debuff is unique and could account for their weak skills, though they'll always be at +2/-2 when attacking with how their AI's ordered so it only matters for your attacks unless they won't use it every round. Should still be fun because team v team fights are in VV. Also everyone but the seraphs get 2 press turns per member, so be happy their skillset sucks since they have 8 turns?
>Four Seraph
Firstly it's cursed by the main head being Metatron and not Michael. I do like the idea of a Law-Qadistu fight (their magatsuhi skill's the unique seraph attack, does work to debuff AGL), sadly being in Kanji means I'm having to estimate movepools. Considering the above had pierce and I see Metatron has Judgement Light (pierce Light Ragnarok, thank you numbers), Pierce seems to be a big thing in these fights which could work if tempered which leads to the jank moveset moment. Metatron has custom considering Judgement Light is on his set but it seems the other archangels have their skills from the 3 seraph quests, all of them actually have vanilla stats from Godborn too. This also means that there's no buffing unless Metatron has Luster Candy and not Debilitate (what he has normally). Another one that I think could be fun to push builds around. Still weird its Metatron and not Michael, we could've had a Metatron/Sandalphon fight instead is all I'm saying.

>>542011870
>It would be better if there were at least enemies in the gravity flip rooms.
This is the part that makes it feel extremely unfinished. No enemies, but also like 10 different clusters of orbs to restore HP/mp/magatsuhi even though you're not fighting? It's like there were supposed to be enemies but they vanished.

In general Shakan just feels like an unwanted intermission, or a long side quest. No wide area worth exploring, lots of dead rooms with no enemies, no mimans, no relics, no mitamas, no glory cubes, and most importantly no abscesses so I'm sitting on like 700 glory right now, edging as I'm waiting for the final mastery skills, skill slot, and essence learning miracles which I know will drain me once I get them.
>>542011907
Yeah I enjoyed that area a lot, and the Kabukicho theme was fantastic. The whole place culminating in the Qadistu fight was a high point. The cutscene right after was a low point.
>>
>>542019181
>Trimutri
Like Vishnu's unique skill isn't pierce while having a pierce attack so wind NDRs don't wall him but still matters. His passive could've been neat if it wasn't a 50% heal on proc on a team with Dekunda/Luster Candy. Mediarahan is fucking scary too. Shiva's resistances are weird, not only custom but way worse than base game (went from Drain Fire/Elec + phys resist to just Repel Elec) but Prayala being almighty insta-kill is cancer so fuck him. Raw damage-wise should be fine even if volatile as hell (1 hit is worse than Megido, 2 is slightly more than Tandava but no debuff, and 3 is 360 vs Tandava's 230 and he has Charge to boost this). Brahma has Judgement Light that Rakundas per hit (so if hit twice you are 2-). Maybe in practice this isn't so bad, feels like it can get scammy real fast depending on what procs the AI to use Prayala, maybe just target Shiva into the sun while having some Elec neutral demons as he's the big damage.
>Guan Yu and Huang Di
First we have broken a rule of standard SMTVV boss design, no weaknesses. Satan is the lone exception except he swaps his resistances with whomever he eats so he'll always have weaknesses past first plunder, Guan Yu only Nulls Phys while Huang Di resists elements + reflects Light. You can't get press turns barring crits, magic in Guan Yu's case. As for skills, Dragon Blade is native pierce + auto-crit + double pleroma (something bosses don't normally have) + Masakado's Innate (nerfed to only boost crit damage but DBlade auto-crits), I do smell bullshit if he spams but its also base 180 pwr for the all hit, less than Hades Blast. Huang Di either has pierce 250 elec attack (that also gets crit damage boosted based on active effects) or Figment Whiff, Dragon Eye isn't enough. Diarama can get annoying as a DPS check but maybe in practice is fine, 10k's a lot but you can get high damage going when unimpeded (no buff/debuffs from them). And without crit-rate boosting, fairer masakados?

IV is where the rot began and that was over a decade ago

>Three Balls
So the - of God skills have pierce back, Lucifer will be happy to hear that. Sabaoth has random ailments, Shaddai is a Debiliate, and Elohim's Inferno is raw damage (150 for first hit is weak but who knows the random hits afterwards) while his innate gives everyone crit chance. They do have other moves, Shaddai has Almighty weaker Raganrok/Mediarama/Luster Candy, Elohim has Concentrate, while Sabaoth has Makajamaon + Debilitate/Dekunda. Stat check we are scary with Sabaoth at 375, Shaddai's tame if bulky, and Elohim has a mighty 440 MAG. Note the footage has Susano-o block to Null a pierce skill so maybe there's more counter-play or its part of his hacked stats. And with 6 turns of pierce/almighty/random ailments that I can see this get annoying fast, at least there's no almighty insta-kill? Maybe if they're frail its fine? Still don't like your resistances not mattering at all as everything is either pierce or Almighty.
>Base Late Godborn Reference
Super Lucifer had 506 MAG when throwing his Barions, drops to the 490s in phase 3. Metatron has 358 MAG, Tsukuyomi had 393 STR/344 MAG while Beano-Abdiel at Shakan was 393/418, Seth from the bridge has 409/366 with mazandyne/madness claws, and a super-boss for reference. Vishnu has 483/615 STR/MAG. As for Luck, they seem to be a bit on the higher end of things but not highest end, Horus side-quest boss/Beelzebub/Vasuki/Beano Adbdiel/Tsukuyomi are there and have 488/362/395/369/369 LCK respectively. Mid/late 200s puts them around the same benchmarks of base late game VV bosses like Zeus+Odin, Khonsu, Anansi, and Fionn's rematch if wanting to think about ailments as there's no ailment immunities among the fights.

It received plenty of criticism back in the day, especially when the Digimon games were coming out and he was basically shoving DeSu designs together to make the Digimon characters. Anti-Gravity Boobs was a detraction about the designs.

I was talking with friends a while back about Doi designs and I actually love a lot of them but please don't let him be the main artist again. It was good in IV for the most part but I'm sick of Doi.
The humanoid designs had to be the worst in VV he sucks so fucking bad at them. I fucking love toku too but I just detest Zeus and a lot of his design philosophy just doesn't work for me.

Yes. Lilith in particularly looked like one Tokumonster I don’t remember the name of that their artist created. It was pretty blatant.

Ultimate the High Seraph was designed by him in the same style in FFXIV and some others the artist make also fit that style.

It's almost like Kaneko and Doi both have good and bad designs for different reasons and also reuse the same tropes.

Nta but the company generally shares the same books for all their projects. The team now is probably using the same shit they were using back then as basis. For example even persona 3 cribs from barbara walker, I stumbled on that fact myself when I was trying to find out stuff about kala nemi. P3's usage of it as a female being with a connection to nemisis is 100% barbara walker original content, I could not find that shit anywhere else

The game needs you to have a cleared save file that's beaten Lucifer, maybe "true" Lucifer, you can have that be slot 2 and after its been made, you can load slot 1 and fight Satan on NG.

This would be true if the way to get there wasn't cringe as fuck.
Decisions like not protecting Asahi against adramelech or choosing to not tag attack in battle (in another fight I forget) to focus on yourself and your own strength makes sense and fits the mindset in a rational way. Acting like a stomping child having a tantrum (the other 95% of anarchy aligned choices) turns the whole path gay. A true individualist would have the sociopathic wherewithal to at least not behave like an utter mong and draw attention to themselves.

I hope in smt VI that they introduce dual element pleromas. I appreciate what apocalypse and V did with skill potentials differentiating demons by specialties but around mid game you start really building towards specific elements and by endgame it's most efficient to stack dual pleromas for a single damage type while having weakness protection and stuff like enduring soul so you don't have room to accommodate another element at full power, or sometimes at all. It feels a little wasteful to have strong demons whose selling point is multiple specialties when past midgame you really only want to use one.

Also I am not a fan of how V showers you with Sutras. Apocalypse locked them behind the post game tier dlc (right? I haven't played it so I don't recall) which is the opposite extreme I also didn't like, but you shouldn't have such easy access to +9 affinities because it detracts a lot of the feeling you get when fusing up to stronger demons. I get that it was to help you bring any demon you want with you to endgame but you should've gotten a drip feed from chests and quests rather than constant bombardment from your navigator.

Counter-argument, I like how SMTV let you genuinely interact with the affinities by giving you sutras and not locking it behind the worst SMT dungeon on the 3DS that you have to save-load farm to make sure you get the right sutras you want (IVA has them behind Twisted Tokyo which is where the fiends reside in a minimap-less keyhunt of the shitty domains). If there's one thing I do agree, its more the method could be expanded upon (navigators be more upfront about their numbers, maybe an expensive glory that lets you buy them from the shop without going Godborn akin to Grimoires also being buyable). Alternatively, maybe tie it more to the Magatsuhi demons and again, have someone like Nahobeeno/Ippon-Datara/Mara specialize not just in fights but Magatsuhi demons. I saved them until the end because I didn't have the full information of the compendium to know what I'd want to use them on, same with incenses, so they weren't devaluing demon fusion.

>>542260325
A confusing mess of a mode that if you have the mitama DLCs and/or modding, can be made to a fun sandbox to test team comps out.
>more indepth
None of the enemies have changed movesets, they're just scaled to level 150 with the only changes being how much incenses the AI gave to the stats. Nuwa at Minato will still be using Zanma/Mazio with pierce only being in Magatsuhi turns (instead of crits) for example. This means everything is closer together as a baseline which is what makes it where testing teams on bosses not feel too rough, balancing them for end game won't completely destroy midgame trainer encounters if wanting variety.
>Notes/Tips
Essences will still be Grimoire and reloads. If you don't want to break endgame, have demon stats cap out at ~350, Super Lucifer will be scary but its doable with proper team building. If going CoC, make sure to stock up on Tsukuyomi essences because they're not automatically unlocked in Godborn for some reason. Similar vein for Grimoires as you can farm in NG for max stacks before going NG+ and immediately get demons on level. If you have the Mitamas and just want to hit 150, Evergreen Dance Nahobino + Yabasume Shot Matador + Loa + Genma is the bread and butter, make use if Attract Pipes/Riberamas/herding to get consecutive encounters on the mitamas for even more money/exp (multiply alongside Genma's magatsuhi skill).

Note you can make the Matador just from recruiting demons at Minato but it is a long process, do not recommend.

Anyways, i realized I fucked up my cov run and I'm locked with shitass tao. not only do I have to replay cov for yoko ending, to get all the trainer battles and 100% compendium I basically have to beat the game 6 fucking times....fuuuuuuuuk
I haven't done a lot of side content in COV yet but is there anything I'm actually going to miss that's cov exclusive ? I don't know if I really want to replay every single thing. I already did the true neutral as my first route after all and completed that to the max so I felt I could experience the game.
I did Satan and everything but can I just quit now and go into NG++ godborn
>>542272982
>Nuwa at Minato will still be using Zanma/Mazio with pierce only being in Magatsuhi turns (instead of crits) for example
Wtf this is so stupid.

But does godborn not the same as reborn ?? My dad got the deluxe edition so I already have the mitama stuff and I've been using matador. Do you have to get all of your demons again. If so fuck this I'm using SAM. I cannot imagine doing a fucking newborn run with enemies that are level 150 even if it is the same everything.

At least the soul series let's you keep your stuff and the game is still fun even when you're op.

If you did all the sidequests, you don't need to worry then and can keep them around for when you need alignment points, main exception being for alignment locked quests like the mother goddess one Sophia gives you after you've opened up the compendium a fair bit and whomever asks for aid after doing the Three Rings quest (fighting Raphael, Gabriel, and Uriel). Also if the goal's 100% compendium you only need 3 runs that consist of a Law route, a Chaos route, a Neutral Route, a CoV route, and a CoC route (so Law CoV is 2 of 3 here).
>this is so stupid
Welcome to what made me break the EXP Mitama DLC open after staving it off, because while I had a great chunk of fun, a lot was in spite of its execution rather than thanks to it. Money stayed on due to me being a fiend with team building so I needed Matador to snipe the gold bastards to feed my stacked stock once I re-hit endgame.
>Godborn not the same as reborn
It is, you do keep everything when transferring to the mode, the compendium, your stock, the talismans for the magatsuhi skills, whats in your inventory, money, levels, etc. It is a full transfer, just that the shop for some unfathomable reason is reset to base and you have to re-unlock the ability to buy the Pleroma essences, Grimoires, and Whitted Goats. Note Godborn is the NG+ everything's scaled to level 150, Reborn is you transferring over but its with vanilla levels (so you free Amanazako from level 1 Pretas using Lunge instead of 150 Pretas using Lunge).

In vanilla IV where you don't have pierce on MC magic is way better. Physical technically gets a smidge more damage but you won't notice it compared to going all in on magic. With how strong smirk is you're going to prefer hitting weaknesses over trying to fish for crits.

Our rescue mission brings us to an artificial island a few miles off the city coast, where our new weeb knife combined with Nemissa's fuck you up levels of magic output makes most mobs a complete non-threat. Reaching Finnegan I expect him to do more edgelord nonsense to stack the fight in his favor but instead he challenges me to a 1v1 like a man and I accept to experience... god damn it the coolest fucking fight in the series so far right after he heals me for a fair duel like Rubicante in FF4.I owe this dude an apology.
I was very pleasantly surprised by him copying my party and using my strats. He was very unpleasantly surprised that he couldn't copy my Sneed and got half his party wiped turn 1 because lol makarakarn into eating an Aeon Rain from his Narcissus followed by a second Aeon Rain from mine. Really hoping I run into him again for a rematch.
We rescue Newfag who is either possessed or got Shang Tsung'd like little sis and pops, not sure which yet, and wannabe /k/-anon Six continues to be an almost irredeemably huge piece of shit. Thankfully he gets his soul ripped out of his eyeballs because he went into the game that we told everyone could rip your soul out. Only the best and brightest on the Spookies.
While I pray for an option to join the Phantom Society later I also have to go to the unambiguously gay duo to get a fake ID since the shadow government pwned all of my accounts to slow me down. I do not like owing serious favors to a man who very clearly wants to fuck me in the ass.

Because the jungian psychology the series was based around never had some sort of limit on which people were capable of having multiple facets of themselves. You'll have stuff like Rise's social link where she'll turn to the camera and talk about how like everyone, she has multiple parts of herself. Meanwhile the gameplay itself is completely incongruent with that.
Also I can't see the point in non persona switching party members just for the sake of non persona switching party members. Anybody can make an unintelligent statement wrapped in circular reasoning like you did anon, doesn't really mean much of anything.

No, an evolution is the same face... evolving. Literally in the word. Its not a different face or personality. Its not like yusuke can go back and use his initial at will after evolving.

I don't really get the point of trying to lawyer a technicality out of this when he have a direct comparison with the current protagonists AND oldsona party members right there. Its basically just pretending to be ignorant at that point.

No fucking way. Too many demons of IV are absent in current demon pool Atlus using in their games. They are lazy cunts selling 4-5 demons as DLC.
>>
>>542369080
They would sell the guest demons and Apoc demons as dlc
>>
>>542369080
They would just cut a lot of demons.
>>542372926
I believe they don't have the rights to a lot of the guest demons anymore.
>>
>>542373102
One of the few good things about IV is the massive selection of demons. The fact V can never match it is one of the worst things about V.

should I play Persona 5 or Raidou Remaster
>>
>>542387672
Raidou.
It's shorter.
>>
>>542388391
>It's shorter.
I can't even tell if that's a joke because of how ungodly the amount of text in the Persona games is.

lole

>>542387672
at least raidou has an entertaining story

SMT but theres an extended reverse rape CG every time you get a game over against a female demon

I'm not joking. I have yet to play P5/R (I will get through it some day, who knows) but everyone I have talked to had their playthrough of the original finish around 120 hours if they played to aim for all Social Links and 60 if they played at a fast pace.
60 hours is the amount of time it takes you to play Raidou at a slow pace with no NG+. P5/R is unironically one of the longest and most bloated JRPGs of all time.

Is this place full of leftists or something? How does a high quality meme that's never been posted here before only get two replies?

I don't know who's that eceleb is supposed to be and I don't really care.
>>
>>542393421
He got it from twitter you stupid cunt.
>>
>>542393718
Somehow you know he's an eceleb though.
>>
>>542393830
Because you used a picture of a real person, its not exactly gonna be anything else is it?
>>
>>542393830
That's clearly not a politician nor a nip so by process of elimination it's an eceleb.
>>
>>542393421
I don't get it becuase I don't know who that guy is, also this >>542393762

Yes, the filename is a dead giveaway.

I don't care and neither do you since you clearly don't care enough to even name him.

no

Don't bitch that people don't recognize your eceleb then you fucking retard.

because I don't give a shit about breadtuber drama

don't call that commie faggot "my" eceleb

I'm assuming this is american politics shit, I stopped paying attention to that stuff because regardles of what happens the nukes will drop eventually anyways.

He's your eceleb.
>>
>>542395151
But you're clearly pained by the fact that people here don't know who he is.

Man Cu is so strong in vengeance and it's not just Gay Bulge. Every single boss battle since I've learned Raging Whirlwind starts with the enemy at minimum attack and defense, it's crazy how much momentum that gets you.
>>
Tam or Cu?
>>
>>542399161
I like Tam's color scheme more

>>542393605
It's only 60h if you do every quest and every fusion on a clear file. It can go higher than that with ng+, more difficulty modes, etc, and it can go much lower than that if you avoid side content and play at a fast pace.

More cryptids would be fun. A jersey devil would fit right in
