In Training posted:The only thing that annoys me is the texture pop in but that's just how unreal engine works and wouldn't really be fixed. High frame rate would be cool though. Spotty performance is totally worth it for the portability though I've hosed up a few jumps due to the framerate which isn't a big deal but it's definitely a bit unpleasant. Just reached the Diet Building boss and got my rear end kicked lol, this thing seems to have insane HP and I'm not sure how to outlast it... guess I need to go find more stuff with good fire skills, glad I have jack o lantern at least

Is there a reason the couple Elemental demons I have cost like 30k to summon from the compendium and everything else is like 4-5k? They're not particularly high level; thinking maybe it's because I fused some more powerful skills onto them?

They're not particularly high level; thinking maybe it's because I fused some more powerful skills onto them? It would make sense if it was based on skills for price. One of my demons had its value in the registry lowered when I went to register it to compendium even though it was higher level than it used to be, probably because I replaced a skill that was valued higher. This is anecdotal, though, and I'm not 100% certain it works like that.

Elemental demons always cost absurd prices because they're used to walk your other demons one step up or down in the level of their Ranks.

Fungah! posted:is it just me or do kaja/nda skills seem kinda so-so in this. full rakunda only seems like it adds like 20% extra damage Yeah between that and them being single target for three turns I'm not really finding them super useful so far. It's an interesting twist on the formula i guess but so far it just feels like taking away one tactical consideration and not really replacing it with anything

I've been using sukunda and rakunda on bosses, missing and losing turns is one of the biggest factors in untimely deaths for me so far. And free damage is free damage. It will be quite nice to finally get debilitate whenever that happens though

Fungah! posted:is it just me or do kaja/nda skills seem kinda so-so in this. full rakunda only seems like it adds like 20% extra damage I disagree. Even 20% is nothing to scoff at. Full debuffing bosses has been the only way I was able to beat some of them, Tarunda in particular feels necessary to keep from getting smoked on some bosses. The fact that it's single target doesn't matter cause bosses are by themselves 9 times out of 10 (the Riders can summon angels to help them and that's like the only time I've seen a boss with adds). Once you start getting demons with Ma- buff skills then buffing will become far easier and it's definitely worth it, I'm sending out 800+ damage Wrath Tempests with 2x Tarukaja. The only one I will say is close to so-so is sukunda, only because it seems weaker than its Nocturne implementation, but it goes both ways so you're not constantly missing when you get sukunda'd yourself. I find Tarunda more valuable in this game than Sukunda.

This whole school dungeon section after the Diet Building is so weird lol. Not sure what they're going for with the odd sad music and every fight being scripted/cutscene but I am so curious as to where it's going. I was worried it was going to get a bit Persona but that does not seem to be the case

I'm nearing the end of area 2 so I'm not too far yet but I think the double stack, turn limited buffs may be their solution to bosses always spamming dekaja/dekunda late game. I definitely think it's a lot more interesting rationing turns to keep buffs up rather than throwing up 3 or 4 and forgetting about them until you get dekaja'd

was feeling like I was running out of money for compendium fusions in the second main zone until I managed to kill a full group of the yellow mitamas and levelled up twice + got a ton of cash from their drops. the miracle that allows all your demons to use items feels like a gamechanger

Honestly the Werewolf felt like one of the most hosed up bosses in the game and he's just a midboss. I feel like the game is getting easier as I progress, however, due to new miracles and powerful demons being fused. Idun is never leaving my party and Yoshitsune might not either we'll see.Daikatana Ritsu posted:the biggest change that's been fuckin me up is how full moons are actually good for demon negotiation now. new moons are the ones that never work It varies by demon. Some demons are happy on new moons and pissed off on full moons, and others get happy when it's like 7/8 or 1/8.

Use Sudama essence on MC and take affinities to null force, use Force Dampener when she gathers Magatsuhi. That takes away a lot of her bite. Always carry a full stock of dampeners.

I’ve only played 3, 4, and 4A so I can’t speak to earlier games or spin-offs but so far it feels like the most challenging of them aside from 4’s weirdly tough tutorial area. Even after doing almost all side quests (I think I’ve only got 2 that I haven’t done yet not counting the ones that are too high-level for the area they’re in like the dlc and the dragon one), I’m still constantly feeling under-leveled. I’m really digging it, it’s doing a great job of keeping me on my toes

I’m really digging it, it’s doing a great job of keeping me on my toes Well, I'm playing on Normal and I would have agreed with this a few days ago (I've been playing this game nonstop since it came out and have progressed pretty far now) but I'm reaching a point where it actually feels quite easy. There are a couple reasons for this. The first is that starting in the 40s or so you can get some really strong demons with powerful unique skills, and since the game practically shits grimoires at you you can keep these demons around and continually level them up to match your MC's level. On top of this, essences/incense/sutras means you can shape and power up any demon to match situations and get around weaknesses. Got a demon that is weak to light? Well, just find an essence that has Resist Light on it and now they aren't weak to anything. It's a level of flexibility that isn't present in the older games without some finagling and foresight with fusions. The other one is miracles. Some of the miracles you get are just downright broken. I won't go into details but you'll know them when you see them. Finally, the Magatsuhi skill that guarantees crits on everything including spells is a ridiculous tool and it's something you start the game with. Pair it with the phys skills that deal increased crit damage and watch bosses melt. Game still kicks rear end but I will probably try Hard on a subsequent playthrough.
