I have bought a copy of SMT5 a while ago. I also preordered SMT5 Vengeance. So it is not about the money, i already bought both versions. Is it worth waiting for the new version or should i play the normal copy first?

Been a long time fan of Persona and SMT. Around Christmas time I bought the game for pretty cheap and I heard nothing but great things about the game and was told by many that it is life changing. I started playing about a week ago and finished the tutorial which I enjoyed but after that when the menu spilts up into the analysis, destruction and remembrance selection, it lost me right then and there. Since then it’s just been hard to enjoy and I really want to. I’m following the story well and I intend to finish the game eventually but just confused on where to go from here and what order to play these story increments in or just play them in any order. Do you just play the remembrance parts in any specific order or does it matter?

I think I'm halfway through p3Re, but I'm wondering if I should wait for metaphor or should I jump to p5?

I tried so hard to like P4 on PS2 back in the day, I must have started like 6 new saves over a period of several years, but the game would always lose me around the bathhouse dungeon.

I think it was a combination of the dungeons being boring (I really dislike proc gen dungeon crawling), the main story not really going anywhere up to that point, and seemingly random difficulty spikes. Just could never find the motivation to carry on past that point.

My favorite part of the game was definitely the social links, but of course because a lot of that stuff was gated behind stat checks, I never got very far in those.

IYO would P4G be much of a game changer for me, or does it not really change the complaints I had? I know the dungeons are still proc gen but I may be willing to deal with that if the game makes it easier to deal with difficulty spikes or has better balancing.

Hear me out on this,

On Steam, ATLUS has only released their enchanted versions of the game (excluding P3 portable). Something like SMT5V got brought to PC but not SMT5. My guess is that the enhanced versions allow them to bypass exclusivity deals and similar issues while increasing the quality of the games.

Metaphor: ReFantazio release on steam suggests that it will not be enhanced since they will not have to deal with the same issues. More likely, they would release DLC like they did for P3R and the "Wave 3 - New Expansive Story Scenario, “Episode Aigis -The Answer-"

What y'all think, cope or hope?

Do i have to play any SMT games before SMT V Vengeance? Like is this game a sequel or new story like persona games?

I'm so dissapoited that in 2024, atlus sound team still not presented in qobuz, which is one of the best hi-fi streaming platforms. Is there any reason? May be we can make this happen?

I usually play on pc and was excited to see it coming to PC day one but I don't see a collectors edition for pc?

My mini atlus Shrine.

Because myself, I’m honestly scared of that happening!!!! I can see why the Persona spinoffs are not that popular with it not being mainline important and maybe even have harder gameplay barriers depending on the genre or the studio that makes the games.

But mannnnnnnnnnnn!!!! It would honestly suck to me if Persona spinoffs just aren’t being created anymore because their ideas, gameplay changes, and story are always neat in comparison in expanding the mainline games.

I don’t really want Atlus to be another Rockstar just seeing how potentially bangbuster success their new shiny gacha live service could be. And just don’t want to deliver on other games even for other IPs just because it’s safe.

What do you think? Is Atlus creative driven enough to keep doing spinoffs? Or are they pushing for more monetarily successful ventures?

I heard its too dificulty and it has a low score on metacritic so the game dosent seems good but i like dungeon crawler atlus games

Apparently the director of the series, Shinjiro Takada, went on to do Devil Survivor and even helped a bit on Unicorn Overlord. Does anyone think it has a place in the modern landscape of gaming?

Hello, all. I wanted to know what ideas or game mechanics you would like to see. Such as units, locations, all the like. I, for one, would like to see the promotion feature developed more. First, it would be the unit's base stage. Then, their 1st Promoted stage. And after that, there would be another, final promotion stage. But, for that one, you have to choose which path you would want that unit to take. As for the Units...

Samurai, Shogun, Monk, Ronin, Shrine Maiden, Shinobi, Oni, Tengu, War Monk, Pirate, Centurion, Runic, Merfolk, Demon

Any of you guys have your own ideas for the potential sequel of Unicorn Overlord? Feel free to share them.

Imagine making the whole fanbase wait for official Persona 3 reload soundtrack, but only placing few tracks that aren't even that good. Like... why? Do they want to earn so much money by not letting people listen to color your night???

Persona 5 royal is one of my favorite games of all time but was left ultimately disappointed with persona 3 reload. Should I play persona 4 Golden?

I travel a lot for my job and I got lucky finding both of these at a comic shop in Morganton, NC that I went to on a whim.
