gay sex with fidelio!
the prospect of metaphor going into p5x actually got me to boot the game up for the first time in months kekit's cool that they added a chink persona that you can actually use
There is no organic discussion about metaphor unto itself. There is only discussion about what from it should and shouldn't be in persona. This is because people actually care about persona while no one cares about metaphor.

I activate my Metaphors.
Hopefully we'll get the next batch of content released in 2027. I still think it's somewhat likely that they release P4R and Metaphor R next year while P6 gets announced for 2028

>>559690345I don't see how you'd get that impression when this is just entirely about what happens to the dog
>>559688478This is a Metaphor related reference, because Altered Beast (a 1988 prequel to the famous mega hit beat em up video game for PS2, "Altered Beast (2005)") was developed by "Makoto Uchida". Yes, that's right he is from the same clan as Naruto's rival from the hit anime show "Naruto". But that's not important here.Makoto is also the name of the protagonist's canon love interest from the hit video game Persona 5 and the semi-canonical name of the protagonist of its cult-following/non-financially successful spiritual predecessor, Persona 3. Makoto means "truth". This also ties back to the in-between title, Persona 4. One of its themes is "Reach out to the truth".And here's the kicker - all of these Persona games? They were made by Atlus, the same company that made Metaphor. And the truth is, "Wise fwom youw gwave!" is a direct quote to Altered Beast.BOOM!
>>559690345Pitbull owners
berg will be at summer comiket
>>559691135I expressed myself poorly, the whole exchange puts Glodell into another angle, the old soldier states that the dog was been well raised, and suggests that the owner must have loved the dog lots, "He must have been a gentle soul".Glodell seems to be utterly incompetent in a bunch of fields, that was probably what made him be what he is. He had a nasty potential as a beast tamer, and that screams that something more could have been sparked from him
>>559698117The main things Glodell didn't have were street smarts and physical strength, and his lack of the former is a result of him growing up in an environment where you were ostracized for not having the latter. He didn't really know how to apply the things he was good at because knife ear culture actively discouraged him. If he didn't grow up like that he could've literally had Hector take Louis or Forden by surprise because Hector isn't affected by the royal magic.
He's right, you know

I watched the F1 (2025) movie because of Metaphor. It was fucking boring. I have no clue why they named characters after literal nobodies who never won anything and probably will never win anything. Rush (2013) was much better. Where is the burned face waifubait named ããžã?

people itt will shit on personafags then lust over the most persona-coded girl in the game
>>559763993Neuras's relics bro, he says it's the blueprints of a mass destruction weapon. Probably enough to destroy the whole continent in a flash.He also says they don't have a magla aura, so they are not magical in nature. So probably nukes, or something worse, like a FTL ass spreader
>>559761905This was probably the relic that could be used to control the apocalypse dragon Speaking of I still really like how metaphor did dragons and how it ties in with different views of fantasy >high minded society saw dragons as the apex of the impossible and instead of giganukes or laser beams made dragons their ultimate scientific advancement of weaponry >dragons in reality are sentinent but with no sense of self and their instinct is to aimlessly wander/travel which metaphor exemplifies as the fundamental means of establishing the self >The eldan queen takes old society's view of dragons and flips it making them out to be a trial to be overcome instead of a height to reach >>559795765Retard

>>559796236Still confused on why we can't sense Magla out of the relics though, since Dragons were artificially created with itI also wonder what was the tactical or biological advantage of humans being forcefully mutated into the likes of Nidias.

>REquiem already has DLC plannedHow I wish Capcom wasn't in the total gutter in the 2010s so they could've bought Atlus instead
>>559888596I wonder if they would have even been interested, is there some info if other companies tried buying them back then?
>>559888596That stuff is usually being worked on before the games even come out. The soonest atlus has ever done anything for a rerelease it was pre-planning for P5R before P5 came out
>>559891060From all the available information that survived, it's never said who were amongst the 20 bidders for Atlus other than SEGA (meaning that all the others were likely insignificant). Apparently GungHo (Puzzle & Dragons) was amongst the 20 bidders for Atlus back then but the only source is some guy on reddit.SEGA bought Atlus for 14 billion when Index was at 2.4 billion in debt. The bid at the time had been 200 million, but the final bid of 14 billion is quite a lot. Neither Nintendo or Sony were ever mentioned (and billions would've just been pocket change for nintendo if they were competing against SEGA) so they probably weren't amongst them.
>>559892339After the flop that Soul Hackers was, they for sure didn't plan anything and wanted to see the reception first and also analyse what people liked or disliked. I'm still happy it went this way, even I thought Metaphor would be decent but nothing people would pay attention to. The demo really saved their ass
>>559895768>I thought Metaphor would be decent but nothing people would pay attention toThat was kind of the vibe yeah, instead it ended up as hashino's Bloodborne

So I finally want to talk a bit about the overall mod I've been working on. Back when I was still doing things in P5 I had wanted to make a Devil Survivor themed mod where you play a small section of the calendar and had an ultra focused + easily replayable gameplay loop. When I got far enough along to do something similar in Metaphor, and this will still probably be a rerelease mod by the time it's done, I thought of Elden Ring Nightreign and thought it would be cool to get some of the urgency of that except single player + you get to stop and tinker with what options you have to work with. Then I also thought about Bloodborne and the severely gutted Dragonrot mechanic from Sekiro and I came up with this.Core gameplay is>set in a very fucked up offshoot of metaphor's timeline where everyone is sick>you play a month of the game where your goal is to hunt 6 new bosses in any order you want and work with the Akademeia doctor to synth medicine >you build your party by doing time limited dungeon runs where gear obtained from chests and minibosses are randomized leading up to when your target boss shows up>NPC permadeath, start with all followers' 1st tier archetypes and unlock more by healing them, but can also lose them and will be entirely up to player choice with limited resourcesWill include>heavily rebalanced skills and enemies, exp gain etc. for a way shorter gameplay loop >some existing archetypes will be replaced with different ones, no royals period>bosses will react more to player build decisions and will have different stats based on level >some new gear>some altered map design (will hopefully get easier to do overtime)>story is not a big focus but I do want to do a little bit like scenes for the followers + definitely not Louis in a mask Some of these ideas will probably work better than others in practice but I would definitely like to hear some thoughts. Goal is really to keep the scope as focused as possible.
