What went so fucking right?
What went so fucking right?
Only devs still making good JRPGs
>Right
>Almost completely neglecting the american market
Fucking jews if you are going to destroy SJ at least release it with a proper dub
They got bought out by Sega and Sega just let atlus do whatever they want for the most part.
Lolis and high but fair difficulty in games designed by a pen and paper RPG enthusiast
I can't think of a single thing that went right
they completely gave up on anything that isn't Persona/SMT or Etrian Odyssey
>All that P4 milking this last decade, P5 delayed a bazillion times
>SMT has been nothing but ports of old games or mediocre shit like IV lately
Meh.
Can't decide on who I want in my party in EOIV lads
Medic or dancer?
Bushi or Fortress?
Fuck's sake
I should probably keep my party together and make a new one in NG+, I can't split up my crew
Nothing? Since Strange Journey they've only made really shitty ports, some really garbage SMT games with no Kaneko influence at all, and Persona 5/Catherine which were good.
Depends on your composition. If you have a landsknecht you don't need a fortress.
Dancers can almost entirely replace medics except for out of combat healing and reviving, but you're going to have a tough time pre-20 because of only being able to heal the front line.
You mean art for Kaneko influence right? He's still involved with the games, he just outright refuses to draw anymore for them.
They just re-released Radiant Historia in Japan.
Waifus
I was going to complain about EOV but apparently I missed the announcement and it's getting a western release.
So yeah, based fucking Atlus.
>if you have a landshekekxkw you don't need a fortress
oops, I've had both in my party for around 80 hours now
Basically, I am fucking stupid and this is my first EO
I prefer my fortress, should I replace the land-whatever with a Bushi or an Imperial? Or something else?
...
>muh dub
Kill yourself, faggot.
It's not too hard, I made it with a party of
Landshark/Fortress/Dancer
Medic/Runemaster
and managed to barely beat the final superboss with them.
...
Back when Atlus had dignity.
Not releasing a single good game since Catherine
Landsknecht subclassed as Bushi does incredible physical damage, since you have a Fortress anyway you don't have to worry about supporting with it and can just focus on damage. Most classes fulfil multiple roles in the party so it's hard to outright screw yourself.
man kowaishita is such garbage
But P5 was a disappointment? Etrian Odyssey is fucking stellar aside from the remade story shit
Literally everything went right. The only company that consistently makes incredible vidya.
A lot, but now they went downhill, especially Atlus USA
Nothing. They're pretentious faggots who think their game is a work of art so they ban people from making stuff on it for "spoilers" as if people give a shit, despite the fact that people looking at footage don't care about spoilers.
>Atlus
>ever having any dignity
Why doesn't he draw for them anymore?
He just doesn't want to I guess, and he's taken on a different role in the games. The only illustration he released in a long time was a celebratory image for the series.
>landsheckkedk/Bushi
Damn that does sound good, is it possible to re-choose subclasses at all? If not I may just try out the Bushi
He's getting old. Time to pass the torch.
When are we going to get more news? This game is what pushed me over the edge to buy a Switch, so I hope it turns out good.
...
If by right you mean wrong, then clearly the departure of Okada
Quality has sharply dropped ever since
This is a main character in a Shin Megami Tensei game nowadays.
>buy a console for a game no more than vaporware
It's FE x SMT all over again holyshit
Very similar to my party but I have a Ranger called Rowan instead of a dancer
Rowan fucking sucked for a long time but I feel like the late game bind combos with divine shot and crits are great
Yeah just rest the character. You go down 2 levels but it resets your subclass and refunds all your skill points
Desu 2 is 6 years old
Ah cheers, that sounds well worth it over my landsckenek/Dancer when I already have a medic and a fortress
At least the Switch has some games this time around.
Splatoon and what else?
DeSu3 when?
That'll probably be fine.
Dancer is a really good all around class in EO4 though, it even has multiple meme builds, including a permastun build and a cheese build, plus buffs.
I've never used a sniper but they're good damagers in EO4 from what I hear.
Tico Tico is insufferable.
Io was a surprisingly good character. I expected her to be a shy version of Yuzu's shittiness.
Snipers are mostly bindbots, but you can do silly damage with Squall Volley, and Silver Arrow is pretty good for monsters that resist physical damage
...
...
It's been 9 years since vs King Abaddon
Ah.
I should replay it and try out Sniper and Nightseeker and also Imperial, Bushi, and Arcanist outside of subclasses.
FOR FUCKS SAKE ATLUS GIVE US RIDOU 3
...
They actually stuck to making their turn-based games turn-based instead of pandering to high-octane meathead Americans by actionizing the fuck out of every franchise they have.
...
Trailer was super early.
I'd say mid 2019 at the earliest;
They avoid PC like the plague and have kept their franchises pure as a result.
>tfw still no Personas on PC
When will they make sequels to Sega's rpgs?
IV and IV fall nap were good, hating them is a meme.
Idiot
Been playing Raidou again lately and it's still one of my favorites despite it's simple combat. Any other good action rpgs made by Atlus, or did they stop after King Abaddon?
Persona 1.
>But P5 was a disappointment?
It was?
It's just MegaTen you filthy gaijin
...
>soul hackers has entire text boxes untranslated
>also freezes a ton
>Yeah we know about it but we refuse to fix it because fuck you
nah these guys suck ass
I don't know how anyone can be disappointed with P5, it's the exact same shit as P3 and 4.
But FFXV wasn't made by them.
It sure as hell wasn't.
And it shows.
After persona 4 the bar was set pretty low but persona 5 improved the gameplay and felt more like a megaten game
People really need to learn the difference between games made by Atlus and games they merely published.
I know Atlus is overzealous with slapping their logo everywhere but still.
>FFXV
Every Atlus game feels like it had an incredibly low production value.
I cannot find any game they have every made to be impressive on any level. Game design, gameplay, game athmosphere, soundtracks, stories, everything feels so incredibly off. Like those games were made for children with the Persona series for the ages 11-15 and the SMT series for edgy teenagers from 11-15.
I know it's regarded as baby's first smt but I still think it's genuinely the best smt game overall. While some game may have stronger individual aspects I still feel nocturne is the overall best final product.
They make games exclusively for consoles so they are not dumbed down for the PC audience.
Atlus does PC games though, they just aren't the same as the console ones. They have also done phone games.
>They have also done phone games.
No.
This will be on PS4 as well, you idiot.
That is a good thing.
Yes, several MegaTen phone games.
Some of these are ports but many are not.
megamitensei.wikia.com
I mean, a huge problem with 5 is that it really just feels like 4-2, which was already way worse than 3
I don't even know if I would say the gameplay was improved. It's broken and incredibly easy, at least you would hit a challenge once in a while in 4.
I felt like the writing was pretty weak overall as well. From the characters to the story to the execution of its themes, I was just very underwhelmed
waifus and social links
The only challenging parts of persona 4 were kanji and mitsuo everything else was piss easy
...
All I know is that Fatlus is one of my favorite memes of all time.
I'm getting a little sick of there glorified ports, but otherwise they're just an all around stellar company, ATLUS USA excluded. I can't help but feel skeptical about SMT HD though, but hopefully it turns out well. I also am ashamed to say that I'm looking forward to spinoffs of Persona 5.
You named more moments than all of P5
Fucking Neptune games are better JRPGs than that shit.
PS2/PSP emulators, no way to play P4:Golden though.
Whats the difference between Persona and SMT? Arent they from the same universe?
I've yet to come across an Atlus game I liked. There's such much weebshit and waifu simulators.
I don't think Atlus as a publisher counts, since they had no hand in development. But their translations do suck.
Not unless they hand that shit over to platinum or shift over to full scale turn-base.
The combat is a-fucking-trocious
