though given that it's a mobile game I'm sure it's going to be balanced by gacha, making the game insanely grindy if you don't get the in-app pruchases, or some other scummy F2P monetization model.

a friend of mine thinks they might just go the "Mobile ports of Ace Attorney games" route and section off each dungeon/segment/month as a separate purchase

I think it's actually Luffel? Ruffel? something like that. Around here: https://youtu.be/bgRg-6-0YY8?t=89 he says "Fukurou de ha nai, washi ha ruferu da" フクロウではない、わしはルフェルだ (I'm not an owl, I'm Luffel)

I'm intrigued but at the same time, I am suspicious of how much of an asset flip it is.

"Tell that to Zod's snapped neck!"

It’s like if you were in a foreign country and walked into a restaurant and it was very clearly just McDonalds but with everything named slightly different and clearly inferior (“Welcome to MacDoonals, home of the Large MacSando and MacChucks o’ Chicken!”), but then you look up who owns it later and it’s just McDonalds????

I bet Luffy wouldn't be dumb as hell and create the segment of the game with the worst pacing that manages to also flub another character's introduction which was already scuffed for being so goddamn late into the game.

Whats this about SMT 5 on PC? I assume its gonna happen bc of the Microsoft/Sega partnership, but all I can source is weird AI clickbait. Id get a Steam Deck just for this for the graphical upgrade and achievements alone

Short version: a "tripping some red flags" portrait of an alleged leak is going around that mentions SMTIV+A, SMTV, and a third one I forget, I only saw the image as discussion on Discord where people were picking it apart. Another thing people are calling out is that it suggests it will go to MS platforms, Steam, and Switch, with no Sony mention at all.

IIRC people did find Steam hooks in SMT5 (just like they did for the Nocturne re-release back when it was console only) so it probably will happen, maybe? at some point. But the image going around seems super fake.

Even just reworking the interface of SMT4 to fit one screen and giving it high-resolution sprites somehow feels to me like more effort than Atlus would be willing to put in.

Effort that can be used for two games which they will have no trouble selling for 40 bucks each or in a 70 dollar bundle.

Oh wait, I forgot about the DLC. Even more potential money on the table!

I mean. The only thing that makes me think it might be real is because Atlus are doing exactly that with the first three Etrian Odyssey games right now. Otherwise I'd have written the entire thing off as complete bullshit.

Yeah I thought of that but at least the EO collection is like a stepping stone towards developing a brand-new EO game on Switch.

They ARE developing a new EO game, presumably for Switch. It was announced...4? years ago as "what comes after Etrian Odyssey X (Cross)"

So kawaii..
beat Tokyo Mirage Encore today. Finished it just around under 40 hours.

As far as the more loose SMT style combat games go, I say this was a bit up there on the list of the better ones. Had just enough difficulty in the battle system to pay attention to. Rated it better than Soul Hackers anyway, which honestly really bored me to tears in the first 5 hours.

That announcement was grisly as gently caress because it showed gravestones so it was like "technology has caused the death of EO are you happy?"
