since we already had a half-human, half-demon protag be called demi-fiend, we should refer to 5 as demiboy to prevent confusion

So, the trailer says the release date is the 12th, while other sources say the 11th? The 12th would be a palindrome release date outside of the US (12-11-21 for Europe or 21-11-12 for Japan).

Not the best quality, but spoilers for how the stat screen will look for demons in SMT V:



Looks like we have Strength, Vitality, Magic, Agility and Luck.


And they're keeping the elemental affinity stuff from IV:A so that rules.

The game looks absolutely amazing but I feel like the battle UI is a bit of a letdown and doesn't really have the feel of prior SMT games. Maybe I'll grow used to it but right now it's not working for me.

drat, I almost got excited for a trans/nb protag in SMT5

Maybe for the best we didn't get it, I'm not sure how many old Atlus people are on it and after Catherine: Full Body, I don't think too many people would trust em to do it right

I am glad for the look! I had actually been wondering why Nocturne was chosen for a HD re-release, and now it makes sense lol.

The way the battle system looks seems like it's taking queues from the Original Nocturne system before they settled on the Press Turn

Game looks really good
What was the original Nocturne system and how does this one look like it? I'm curious
I don't know anything about the early release Nocturne combat outside of the baffling demon negotiation screen

I can't find the video that I saw about it, but the original Vortex build of Nocturne had a sort of system where you had a bar showing how many actions you could take, and hitting weakness's would extend it.

Watching the trailer for SMTV over a couple times, I'm not sure exactly what's going on with the system, it seems really Press Turn like. But the icons don't behave as they should in a proper press turn system.

edit maybe this video

My guess would be you go through all of your "normal" turns first, and then use your press turns.

How so? I didn't see any inconsistencies but I wasn't watching the icons too closely.

So is the protagonist a woman, or just really pretty? I couldn't tell. I'm okay with it either way, I'm just not clear right now.

Still. Good heckin' job to SMTV for not only making one hell of an E3 showing, but also not even being the game with the longest time in development purgatory on Nintendo's E3 show floor. Out of all the names I expected to see today, Metroid Dread was the bottom of the list.

I think bishounen. There’s a screen of his transformed form shown from the front and it looks more like pecs than boobs.

Watching the trailer another couple times I think it might just be a modified press turn. The way she described it as extending your combo, the Turn Number, and the way they flash at different rates is loving with my brain.
