Best entry in the series, if you disagree you're an oldfag stuck in the past
>>4056640Also the gayest.
>>4056675reinforcing my point
>>4056681Based. Carry on.
it's completely forgettabletechnically sound and relatively high production values but reeks of a botched development cycle
>>4056640nocturne is better
Why is a is MC voiced by a girl
>>4056934He's not.
>>4056892nostalgia glasses, this game does everything Nocturne did right but better and modernized
>>4056703forgettable how? if you are referring to the story, when has any mainline SMT game been known for the story, it's all about gameplay which SMT V: V has the best in the seriesthe original release definitely felt rushed and botched and I blame that on being Switch exclusive, Vengeance feels like a complete and thought out game
>>4056640I really hated how I felt the story was just starting after defeating Arioch but it was about to enter the final act.The game is fun though.
>>4057701>modernizedyou mean a soulless open world collectathon
>>4057701>better and modernizedIf it were truly better, you wouldn’t have to append “and modernized”. “Better” would stand alone
>>4057706It doesn't have a forgettable story either.
>>4056640but that's not Strange Journey...
Strange Journey had a more interesting setting, story and world.But vengance is fine.
>>4056640I'm at the last stage of smt vanilla, Taito I think it's called? The huge open world one where you gotta hunt down Odin and shit. Kinda split on if I want to just start smt vengeance or finish my vanilla playthrough.
4 is more "balanced" imo, in term of quality. Vengeance has great gameplay and I enjoyed the exploration a lot but the stories are kinda sucks
I'm playing 5V for the first time and it's got good core mechanics but I'm not having as much fun as 4A. Open world is just not how I am programmed to engage with SMT. You really want those linear story beats that feel like when you should engage with the pokemon shit. Otherwise it just never ends.
>>40580463, SJ, 4 and 5 have each a different design philosophy. All of them are great, for me its3 > SJ = 5 > 45 has the sickest soundtrack of all time though
>>4059442didnt mean to quote
>>4059286As much as V wants to pretend to be an "open world" it's still very linear with little actual exploration, it's kind of trapped between not being a good enough open and free environment to really be engaging to explore on your own but not a tight enough linear experience to give you the pathed experience, it does have the best fusion mechanics in the series, you can actually complete and fuse everything in a fun way without consulting external websites so that's nice.
Do people consider taunt too cheesy to use, shit solves more fights than dampeners
I don't know how anyone pretended to like the original launch version/canon of creation. it's almost how unreal how fucking boring it is
