That's Io from Devil Survivor 2. Yuzu is in Devil Survivor 1. But same equation applies however.

Oh right, they're not even that similar.

Regarding the bug in Overclocked, is a patch possible? I was thinking about getting this game somewhere down the line, but I don't like the idea of a possibility that every random has a chance of making me restart through no fault of my own.

Owners of a cart can download a patch, the eshop version is already up to date and does not have the bugs anymore.

That's great, thanks! I've only ever made it to the Yuzu ending in the regular version, so I didn't explore much of the game.

I did a study of this thing that once took away like an hour of my progress and here's how you counter it (at least in the NA version; not sure if it applies to the European or Japanese ones): Whenever you're about to collect the data card, turn off the Wireless on your 3DS. Once you've made sure the yellow light is turned off, grab the data card. Once the dialog box comes up and tells you what you got, you can turn the Wireless back on. That's it.

Still doesn't excuse the fact that it's a lovely bug that can cost you a lot of progress if you don't save that often.

A lot of other early 3DS games had the same issue regarding crashing due to Wireless being on. I specifically remember Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars having the same issue. I guess there's some kind of conflict or memory usage issue causing the crashes :shrug:

Oh wow, I didn't know about this and it happened to me with the Euro version (shame the patch didn't fix it).

The wireless thing fixing the bug works for some people. I don't play with my Wireless on anyway, as it eats though my battery, so the bug can and will happen without it. I've seen speculation elsewhere that it happens if you have a demon with two unlearned skills on your team, when the card would try to teach it one of them. So who knows.

Also the mentioned patch does not exist for the US version. Only European, which was buggy as hell originally.

I think SMT 4 was done on a really small budget hence all the sprite mobs and a lot of uneven quality even there. I can only dream for SMT5 on a PS4. Maybe Atlus could re-use the P5 engine and use that for bunch of different games on the platform ala PS2 era (and port to PC while we are at it).

I think the angels looked pretty great too, although it doesn't really mesh with the fact they actually wrote the angels to be very robotic for once this time.

Minotaur and all the other SMT4 boss redesigns look like over designed crap. They also don't fit in with the rest of the game at all, but even in a void they are just bad.

Well at least we have P5 to make some of those designs less poo poo and more 3d.

Also koga ate poo poo, and I'm sad he didn't give me some alignment nonsense during his fight.

I love the tokusatsu samurai demons, they're great. I think they were designed by someone that worked on Kamen Rider, which would explain it.

And yeah, Chemtrail does look like a lovely late-90s-early-00s 3D modeling project from someone who doesn't actually know what they're doing, but that's exactly what Chemtrail should look like.

When people say SMT IV is bad they are almost always comparing it to Nocturne. The game itself is really good and is a personal favourite of mine.

SMT4 is a good, solid game. It's nothing special but it's still arguably the best JRPG on the platform right now.

I'm torn between SMT IV and Persona Q, since I'm so gay for persona 3 and 4, but I've heard the writing is really caricature-y

I'm fuckin poor as poo poo at the moment so it'll probably have to be SMT IV

SMT4 is by far the better game. Persona Q's writing is only passable and the game design is terrible.
