https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsvJ7QdSBLU this skit but it's Akechi owning Ryuji also: Xillia 2 had basically S-Links that ended up giving you an extra scene during Plot happenings if you did character quests and I really wish Persona would adapt some of that beyond just the "if s link is maxed then this scene will happen" OneDeadman fucked around with this message at 02:01 on Apr 20, 2017 |

CharlestheHammer posted:They aren't a bad idea but they need to be supplemented. Yeah, I think in general they should be about less weighty stuff overall. Like general work/life balance, or even what Makoto's link was in 5. Having fundamental character change locked to them really constricts stuff because you have to write around it with the assumption its optional. Which works for side characters tbf.

DoubleCakes posted:I really hope they reuse their assets and engine to make another SMT game or something like they did in the PS2 era. A new wave of current gen SMT would be baller. the problem with this is that even if they reuse all these sick HD demon models they still have to render an entire game of hallways to dungeon crawl in & that will take a lot longer than it did back in the ps2 days they could only barely get away with making a game that was mostly pre-rendered backgrounds in 2007, that poo poo won't fly a decade later

I'm hoping we get another Persona game in a couple years like 3 > 4 and they use actual good textures. Boy oh boy, are the incidental world detail textures loving gross. Definitely a PS3 port.

guts and bolts posted:But if the game periodically stopped so I could read a conversation with character portrait panes talking about boring nonsense I'd probably not like that. and at the end of the day, I like the casts of these games. Like, they're good characters. But I feel like I know less about them and have gotten to spend less time with them than the party of your average tales game, which is absurd since persona games are like twice as long as modern tales games and every single part of these games is basically self-fellatio about how deep and complex their characters are. Like, Ryuji is rad and it sucks that 90% of his screentime is spent talking to a brick wall that occasionally spits music notes at him, or yelling The Plot loud enough for the cheap seats to get it. He has like seven lines total of interaction with Makoto but I love every single one of them and wish I had gotten way more of their dynamic. I guess part of this is a problem caused by blank slate protagonists, but even if Joker had actual lines, the fact that 97.3% of everyone's screentime is spent bouncing off him and no one else would suck. These games are literally based around the idea that people use a multi-faceted mask to interact with society, so it's weird that they don't let us actually see the different sides of the characters.

Really giving the MC voice would help a lot it would make it feel like a conversation rather than your anime friends talking to a wall.

They went through all the trouble of making them in HD, why do it all over again for the same set of demons, y'know?

The future of SMT seems really sketch if the Persona team is just going off to do their own new thing now. I'd love a SMT revival as much as anybody but among known projects it seems to be just the apocalypse team doing the switch game, and whatever dumpy team they have doing the strange journey remake, I wouldn't expect great volume out of them

Maybe it was me reading between the lines, but I took the fantasy game announcement to signify that the cream of the persona team is going off to do that and P-studio will handle the requisite spinoffs and rereleases for a while. That may be me reading too much into it I will admit

I highly doubt they're going to let it fade away. It might be a while before the next big Persona game, but there'll be one and Atlus is going to take it seriously. Now, as for main SMT, I'm pretty sure the Apocalypse team is pretty much the main SMT team these days, so the Switch one is likely the next thing on the horizon. I don't think we're going to get another PS2 spinoffs-galore heyday, unfortunately.

I can say that Chie and Yukiko never say another word to each other that we don't see on screen and hell that's basically true. I really don't see how that's the case, they clearly talk and interact outside of school.

I'm going to be honest, the greatest disappointment of this game was that Morgana never gets a cell phone.

By the Law of Atlus, one devil survivor equals at least three products in the long term: a game, the game sold a second time perhaps with an additional character or scenario, and at least one really rank rear end anime. It can only be a good financial decision to create

Guys need to get the memo, Persona 4 was actually a trash video game. Just like this one will be in a decade. Sorry the game you liked was garbage but it's time to take off the nostalgia goggles and grow up. This red tendril sucking out my willpower?
