I Failed At Anime 2022
Okay, so I listened to some voice clips on the US Website for Overclocked and I'm trying to make out who some of the VAs are as this is another one of Atlus' games that doesn't list its VAs.

Atsuro - Spike Spencer
Yuzu - Melissa Fahn
Naoya - I'm almost certain it's Kyle Hebert.
Keisuke - I have no earthly idea.
Haru - I recognize this one but I can't remember her name.
Gin - No clue.
Amane - Laura Bailey? Why are you in everything?
Mari - I'm hearing Stephanie Sheh.
Tadashi - Travis Willingham.
Midori - Michelle Ruff? Why are you voicing this character so awkwardly?
Izuna - Karen Strassman
Fushimi - Patrick Seitz

So yeah, this is the best I've done so far in recognizing voices.

That's kind of crazy. Isn't that the exact opposite of her usual character typecast?

She has no character typecast, really. I've heard her casted as tomboys, little boys, nice girls, stoic girls, happy girls, Rukia from Bleach and so on.

The English voice acting world doesn't exactly have a plethora of talent, so we tend to see certain people recycled again and again and again. And again and again.

And again.

At least there hasn't been a Dawn of War 2 style moment with him. Nothing like Steven J Blum and Steven J Blum joining forces to fight Steven J Blum.

Out of curiosity did the original novels ever get translated? I'm kind of curious to see how the megaten series started.

Son please tell me you are not hating on Steven Jay Blum and praising Yuri Lowenthal in the same sentence? Because that's just dumb and horribly wrong.

Fan translation here

I've only read the first one and it's unfortunately rather schlock-y. Gods/demons raping girls/teachers the second they enter the human world. A loner nihilistic student must see the error of his ways to save the girl he's mysteriously fallen for. Blah blah. Not really recommended, but it's a very short read. e:The connection to MT as we know it is rather tenuous - it involves summoning spirits with computers but otherwise it seems the mythos are rather unrelated. You could, however, mistake it for bad MT fanfic.

The second one is supposedly much better and the first chapter definitely hints at that. (Both books are translated at the link)

With the anime coming up I'm sorta excited at the possibility of this new game being a sequel. How much of the new audience would rush to buy a carbon copy (presumably) of the show they just watched in video game form.

There's definitely a precedent set in the past for anime = new game/sequel but I'm kind of wary of it. The last time it happened, we got Valkyria Chronicles 2 which is the worst game in the franchise.

Yeah it's pretty much this, however there are a few brand new demons. On another note, what was Atlus thinking when they made the demon's voiced lines simply be generic grunts/sounds.

The reason is that the demons don't speak English/Japanese, they can only be understood by people with COMPs. All of the SMT games that use COMPs have been that way.

I picked up Devil Survivor Overclocked last week and still have the original Devil Survivor. I've only played few hours on the older one, is there a need to really hang on to the original DS version?

No, unless you're a collector I wouldn't. Also here's a list of all the new demons of Overclocked:

Megami Black Maria
Vile Baphomet
Snake Yurlungur
Dragon Fafnir
Divine Sraosha
Avian Rukh
Avian Huoniao
Fallen Mithras
Beast Cabracan
Wilder Catoblepas
Genma Tschaggatta
Fairy Spriggan
Fairy Troll
Tyrant Lucifuge
Touki Tokebi
Touki Ongyo-ki
Jaki Macabre
Femme Jahi
Kishin Okuninushi
Deity Susano-o

Really cool to see Lucifuge Rofacles, he was always a favorite of mine due to his mythology and looks. I don't think he's been in many games.

So I finally get over this weird aversion to JRPGs I've had, and the SMT games are my favorites so far. Someone traded in like all the PS2 ones to Gamestop, but when I go back only persona 3 and 4 are left. Then some guy puts some up on my local CL, but he wants collector's prices for them.

I just can't justify $75 for the one's he has left, although I may go for Nocturne at $25.

Oh I'm sure he's in the game somewhere. That list was just from characters that I got a hear from on the site and the Eighth Day trailer, he's gotta be in it somewhere because he just has to be shoehorned into one of these roles somewhere.

God I spent way too much money on pretty much these exact games (but P3P instead of P4). Still, a couple of them came in so all that Care just washed away

It's still dirt cheap at Gamestop and if you go in on a slow day when the employees have time to make phone calls they have the ability to order one from stores out of state. I got mine from Virginia and I'm in Ohio.

Earlier in the thread people were pipe-dreaming about a PSP or Vita port of Nocturne, but I really think the coolest thing Atlus could do in the midst of all these ports they're doing anyway is make an HD Collection of all the PS2 SMT games. I would line up at the store a week in advance if this happened, because I could finally mothball my PS2.

I'm playing overclocked right now and I'm at a battle that I don't remember being this hard before.

Day 6 at noon, Gin actively tries to get himself killed by running headlong into battle like he's attached via a series of magnets.

I'm going to try this another couple of times, but if I don't pass it soon I'm going to put this game down for a while. His AI is just so stupid.

I've found that battle to be a lot easier if you just bum rush your characters over to him so the enemies end up focusing more than just him.
