They've released more mainline SMT games in the past 6 years than mainline Persona games.

Good question. They're easily the most obnoxious and idiotic gang of dorks in the series and they've managed to stretch them out longer than any of the other casts.
>>
>>259114825

Too bad P4 threads went to complete shit years ago. I remember when P4 threads where basically SMT threads

People like lovable idiots apparently, given P4's Cast is 50 variants of P3's Junpei.

No, I'm just saying "more mainline games" doesn't really work as an argument since Persona have like 7 spin offs and re-releases

Just recently played SMT4.

How was it received by earlier SMT fans?

Are the other SMT more or less dungeon-crawly? I liked it for the most part but it did get repetitive after awhile.

I wish they made a game with more story than SMT4 but less story than Persona.

Because SMT sucked and always will suck. Why do you think they're tacking it on with Fire Emblem? They probably think that Fire Emblem's popularity will save it.

Not focusing on =/= killing. SMT4 sold well, SMT x FE is in development and the Maniax Team is working on something. They milk Persona since that's a consistent seller, but mainline SMT is still alive.

The only thing I'm more worried about is that we don't see any new SMT spin offs any more. DeSu2 3DS seems to be dead, Raidou is even more dead, and one offs like DDS are probably never coming back.

>>259114430
SMT4 was pandering to old S/MT fans, so they went with the console that had nostalgia fags.

We might get one after the Persona blow-out, if those Devilizer/Devilizer trademarks Atlus filed in November are anything to go by. Rumor on 2ch is, that's what Kaneko's been working on ever since he came up with the concept for SMT4 and then left the project.

Whatever you do DON'T BUY CODE OF PRINCESS

SMTIV is pretty cool, sort of like a PS2 JPRG but in a handheld.

Etrian Odyssey Untold and IV are both good, but they are classic, first person dungeon crawlers, so you should know what you're getting into before you buy it. It might not be your style.
>>
>>259118142
Pick up SMT IV and see if you like it, then go from there. If you like first person dungeon crawlers EO may be worth your time, pick up IV first. I'm not a huge fan but if you like SRPGs then Devil Survivor might be up your alley.

But you can make far more money with pandering products like the Persona franchise, in the same way Bioware became wealthier than god thanks to their romance-focused WRPGs.

If I were Atlus' CEO I would focus every single effort into Persona and similar products, disbanding the SMT teams.
As I told you before, we're here to make money.

Persona is just a bell cow to allow other games. They can both exist and be successful especially with Sega and Nintendo marketing power and supply chain.

>>259119320
SMT games are games in which buffs and status effects actually matter. They are very important as opposed to games like DQ and FF.
Having trouble with a certain enemy? Then try inflicting status effects.

Build a balanced team. I assume you already know about the press turn system (hit weakness/crit, get more turns) and how it also goes for enemies. Building a team that's resistant to a certain something is good for specific bosses, but unless you use guides there are times when you won't be able to find out what the next boss's speciality is. So balance is key.

Str build is better in the long run than magic, but magic is still very much viable.

Persona 3 and 4 attracted to many autists that they realized it's far better to focus on the casual obsessive market rather than to make interesting games. Like Nocturne or SJ.

You can fuse pixie, but remember what demon she's inside of.
Even if you fuse the demon that came out of pixie+another demon, remember the demon that pixie is inside of.

Even if you fuse the demon that came out of the demon that came out of the demon of pixie + ???. Always remember which demon Pixie is inside of. If I remember right, that demon is always at the top of your list no matter what. This is important for something.

So the secret for SMT seems to be letting Nintendo handle advertising. Featuring heavily in Directs, doing another deal like buy SMTIV and FE:A and get $20 back.

>>259124798
It cost more because it comes with a music cd and a book

Not gonna lie most of mainline is boring as fuck garbage outside of Nocturne and DDS. Ooooh I get to fight God or Satan?! HOW ORIGINAL!

At least in Persona there's a Lovecraftian horror who's the root of every shadow, Greek deities (which are as over used as god and satan) and other things as well.

They've got to make more Nocturne and DDS' or no ones gonna give a fuck because Satan vs. God is fucking boring at this point. Hell bring back Raidou.

1/2 are fucking terrible games in comparison to 3/4 though. You can set IS to play itself and win against almost every boss that isn't Nyarly or those five alien things I forget the name of. Hell I beat Shadow Tatsuya in two turns just spamming the best spells.

2 has the best cast and villain though there's no denying that but all 1 has going for it is a JRPG hipster bait battle system and Mr. #1 our lord and savior Nanjo.

For SMT, 4 is the best place to start since it has the smoothest gameplay. Strange Journey is a prequel to it in terms of gameplay, but it's way more dungeon crawling than 4 or 3. 3 is the most popular one of mainline SMT and where most started out on. It's rougher to play since you'll be missing out on a lot of gameplay tweaks and improvements, but it's one of the better games of the franhcise.

Probably wrong thread to ask but I'll give it a shot.

Did they improve P2's battle mechanics on the psp version? I'm stuck in the original version, I can't stand that tarot cards system and the battles are dull.

You can shout SMT IS DEAD at the top of your lungs however much you want but it won't become truth.

The worst part is that when IV came out it was really discussed and seemingly enjoyed by the board but most people now pretend they didn't like it to (my guess) spite P4? This board truly has a goldfish memory.

Altough I'll concede the future is kinda uncertain, even P5 is getting undoubtedly delayed by now.

I guess it depends on what artist it makes you think of. A lot of it reminds me of Prince and MJ.

No
Its because I need to buy a console that I dont wanna buy
And I know for sure im not the only one who wouldn't buy a wii U just for SMTxFE

I would buy a ps3 just for P5 tho
Why?, its not because , omg I have persona dick in my throat
But its because if I want to play other games on that system, I know I will find many stuff

Why is there so much infighting in the Mainline fanbase? It always seems like everyone is shitting on at least one of these games for no real good reason. Every mainline game is at the very least a good game.

Would Atlus really just waste the SMT IV engine?

I
>>
>>259132410
Only 1 and 2 though.
>>
>>259131604
I wouldn't be surprised if SMT4 ran on a heavily modified EO4 engine, since SJ ran on EO's DS engine.
>>
>>259131950
I loved IV but I feel like I can agree with that. As a game, I would put it above 1 but it's weaker than itin terms of story. It just seamed like patched together events if that makes sense. Plus there's the DLC and $50 price take. The former has no place in any Atlus game and the latter is silly.
>>
>>259132434
I haven't played SJ yet. Heard really good things however.

Me it's

Nocturne
I
IV
>>
>>259132696
The story being weak was done intentionally so you'd have to find it yourself through NPCs. The DLC is stupid though, I agree. And gameplay wise, even if demon fusing is way better, Nocturne has a better combat system.
>>
>>259132576
Is 3 (I think that was the one that came out) that bad?
>>259132696
I just felt IV was so fucking boring. SMT 1 felt more pieced together. Not great but better than IV.

>>259129640
But Drive had some good music.
>>
>>259133147
I feel you can have a solid story while putting yourself as the MC. It also wasn't the story was weak but it was boring. As soon as you got to Tokyo I felt like I was just stumbling around looking for something to cling to but nothing came.

>>259133152
I hated it, don't know people's general idea about it.

I didn't much care for Nocturne's story (mostly because the world felt nothing like Tokyo) and I love SMT IV's battles for how much faster they happen. I also like that the mazes aren't as ballbusting and I have a map at alltimes.
