What are the chances we'll see Nocturne ported/remade to the Vita? Would be nice...

I finished the 8th day of the Naoya route in Overclocked. That ending CG. Black Frost is the best. ![]() I also beat Metatron in a single turn. The guy kept using Mazandyne too, which my MC and both demons in his party were immune to.

So Devil Survivor 2 has the some drat irritating missions, and some 'awesome' one-hit KOs that will simply lose you a mission outright. The social aspect is pretty cool: spend time with people, warm up to them, and they get bonuses like resistances to certain elements and such. I'm not that far in right now, but it seems like a pretty solid sequel. It's a little too similar to the first (at least, right now it is), but if you want more of that, then this is good for you so far. Going through the motions where everyone is, as always, all "omg demons we have to fight with them omg omg what ahhhh" is a little tiresome. Except for these gravity-defying breasts that everyone seems to have. Also, do not choose the female guide, unless you like, you know, like hearing about all that, like, rilly rilly [sic] annoying valley girl talk.

I realize it's a DS game, but they can't just go back and not do voices in the sequel. Edit:\/\/ Well, that sucks. I might just hold out for an Overclocked version.

Alteisen posted:Not liking the sound of the one hit KO stuff though. It's not a specific move that does one-hit KOs. It's just a sort-of-boss guy that you fight that has a move so powerful, it can kill you anything outright from full health. And of course at this point you don't have any resurrection spells. (After going through battles and about four or five free battles, I was about level 8 by the time this battle rolls around. He is level 20, with some weaknesses and reduced health, but not reduced damage!)

Are you sure you're not just insanely underleveled? Because that sounds miserable.

Schlegel Mach posted:Are you sure you're not just insanely underleveled? Because that sounds miserable. I am certainly not, I assure you. I went through a few free battles to skill crack, and I'm getting ~5 xp per group of enemies. Bonus! This boss has an attack range of four, and you can't even damage him until you walk by him and get to a particular location. In that time there is a decent chance he will kill one or two of your demons. Also there are other enemy demons. Also if you lose a single ally it's game over. Also you only have three party members for this entire fight. Knowing what I know now, it's likely I could beat him with a bit of luck, but it's really one of those battles where, if you don't know what's going to happen, you're outright hosed.

Morpheus posted:I am certainly not, I assure you. I went through a few free battles to skill crack, and I'm getting ~5 xp per group of enemies. You activated the event trigger for this, right? He shouldn't be doing that level of damage if you did. Unless they changed something for the US release, hitting the event trigger reduces his damage massively, screws up his resistances and in general makes him very weak. There's no way he should still be doing that much damage to you after you've broken him in half. This is the thing with the truck and the giant ice cream cone of death, right? Are you playing a legit version? Because there's supposedly an anti-piracy trigger in that fight which causes it to screw up. ImpAtom fucked around with this message at 04:00 on Jan 30, 2012 |

Unfortunately, he's using Binary Fire, which does about 2/3rds of my characters' health, twice. So if I get unlucky, someone dies.

Morpheus posted:Review copy. Yeah, it sounds like you may want to contact Atlus. I think they may have borked the preview build so that the anti-piracy is trigger. My own copy isn't in yet but in the Japanese version, the trigger massively reduces the damage Dubhe does. Like, Binary Fire should be doing damage in the 30-range for a character who is weak to fire. (Which, to be fair, is like half your health at that point, but still.) At least, if I'm understanding you correctly. The fact that you can take him down in a few turns is weird because... it should be either/or. I wonder what's up with that.

I'm interested in your whole review when it's done. Where do you publish them? I write as a hobby for a pretty small Canadian site, GamingExcellence.com. We don't get money, but we get games to review and access to some swank events, so it's fun to do on the side. ImpAtom posted:At least, if I'm understanding you correctly. The fact that you can take him down in a few turns is weird because... it should be either/or. I wonder what's up with that. Well, I killed him the second time around (and now have access to the Cathedral of Shadows hurray!). It's really the fact that you don't know at all that you're supposed to defeat him the first time you go into the mission, so it's a mad dash for the end. The second time around I stayed out of his range, methodically took out the other demons, and then sprinted by him to trigger the event. Not super hard this time (binary fire still took out a few demons, and against demons weak to fire with full health, did about 60 dmg per hit), but a poorly-designed mission.

So, this youtube channel has been floating around recently. I mean theres basically a 100% chance its just some fan hoax but if this was some big viral marketing thing, that'd be pretty awesome. Loving the theme they went with. http://www.youtube.com/user/ATLUSxP5 e: Yeah listened to a few more songs, it's obviously a fake but goddamn if I didn't get my hopes up for a split second. ![]() Ibram Gaunt fucked around with this message at 23:04 on Jan 30, 2012 |

Literally every video I clicked on had "Fan-made music" as the description. Also, haha, CERO Z. Yeah, that'll happen. e: The battle theme is actually awful enough that it almost sounds like something you'd hear in a modern Persona game. The vocals need to be like 30% more screechy and grating, though. TurnipFritter fucked around with this message at 23:29 on Jan 30, 2012 |

The tracks I've listened to so far are pretty good. Not Meguro good, but catchy. The pics just reignited the thought that an all or mostly adult persona 5 cast would own.

I would love it if Persona 5 went back to the adult cast that Persona 2 had, it would be soooo much better than 3 or 4. I'm also digging the font choice they have for the title in those fanmade music links.

Though main cast for the first half of Persona 2 were teenagers? It's only because the second half focused around an adult character (Maya) that it had an adult cast - which was still a refreshing change, but just saying. Kimitsu fucked around with this message at 06:32 on Jan 31, 2012 |

All of the new consoles are going to be announced/released this year and there still isn't even news of a SMT game for this generation. At this rate they're pulling a P4 where the game comes out so late in a system's life people have already moved on.

Okay, after checking it out a bit more, it's not all bad. The fight theme still manages to be even more grating than Reach Out To The Truth, though. e: Is there even any indication as to who made this? Because i'm warming up to a couple songs and they'd be neat to have if the artist has them up for DL somewhere. Freak Futanari fucked around with this message at 02:55 on Feb 4, 2012 |

Guess I have bad taste then. The fight theme is pretty much exactly what I would imagine Persona 5 to have. It's very Meguro-esque.
