I don't understand the question. What's the "point" of any content of any post here? Or anything done anywhere. People like doing it. If it doesn't directly harm you in any meaningful way, which it obviously doesn't, there's no reason to complain.
>>
>>73238203
But they wouldn't be done correctly, all they would be is "qt lawboi edition" with the same picture of Haniel, or "WURLD OF DIC (Dic is short for dick) edition" probably with a picture of Mara.

>>73238370
The point of posting in /smtg/ is to discuss Megaten games and related materials. Pointless flavor text on the top of the page does nothing so there's no point in starting to add it.

You're being stupid. I'll see if I can break this down for you as simply as possible. "Does nothing" isn't a problem, since by definition its nothing. You being a dick to tons of people because you personally dislike a single line of non-disruptive text is the problem. There is rarely if ever a time when this board is so bad that no one can discuss whatever game they want on it and get answers right away. And the times it is have nothing to do with editions. The problem is you. So either stop being annoyed that "/vg/ is leaking into a thread which is itself on /vg/" or fuck off to gamefaqs like everyone wants you to.

No need to get your panties in a wad there faggot. Editions are useless, they don't contribute anything to discussion and they aren't useful to people who are looking to get into a thread's series. Like I said before, they're just there because the OP just wants to make a joke, and not even a good one at that.
Also, never assume to be speaking for everyone, it just makes you look like a faggot.

>>
>>73240896
Any damage dealt that is 50 or less gets nullified. How do you know that the damage is definitely more than 50? The enemies that most likely have Battle Aura are the leaders of the enemy party. So long as they have demons the Leader takes reduce damage. Battle Aura also affects the everyone in the party.

Yeah, this.
A fixed width font has the same width for every character, so i and w have the same pixel length.
In a variable width font you can set a different width for each character, so you save a lot of space and it looks prettier.

AGTP's if... translation hacked VWF into the game, but originally it used the same font as SMT2.
Compare this screenshot to SMT2. You can fit like three times or more text.

Thanks, gents. God, Zhi's If text is so beautiful. The shadow accents aesthetic really does it for me. So, in VWF the text is coded for each letter to be handled on a separate basis? "i" and "w" are manually set to take up different pixel widths, if I have the hang of it.

Honestly I tried all the others and it made it too blurry or made weird lines all over the place.

It emulates bad enough as it is, man.

Well, a guy named Kajitani-Eizan helmed a Tales of Hearts translation until the butchered western release was announced. He added a feature that, when L or R were held down when starting a new file you got Localized or Rocarized names. L for Shing, Amber and Jaden. R for Shingu, Kohak and Hisui.

I know this project is already a massive undertaking, but give it to me straight doc. Would something like that be a lot of effort? I know this is incredibly nitpicky and I wouldn't dream of this being anything but an after-afterthought, but how labor intensive would something similar be? For "with-u" names, Kyouji and Rei Reihou and the like, and "without-u" names, Kyoji and Rei Reiho, etc.?
>>
>>73256992
just use the original names goddammit.

I fully acknowledge how nitpicky it is. It's only a question

Haha, well, that would be a rather absurd amount of effort for such a small detail, so probably not.

Also, Rei Reiho is a Chinese name (? ??), and even in katakana is not written with a long u, but rather a small u (???????).

Well I haven't really started working on it with them yet, so I don't know, but as I understand it, for the most part the PSX script will be re-used, sans the American names. That translation is actually quite good.
>>
>>73257718
Uh well, I have no idea how long actually getting the VWF sorted out would take, but other than that it's mostly a matter of insertion, formatting, and then testing.

Insertion takes longer than you'd think and isn't as simple as just copying over what I've already written down because it's formatted differently. For examples, the first 'block' has 5000 lines, and I've replaced 2550 or so lines in the past two days. I don't know how many blocks there are either, but that part shouldn't take more than a week or two depending on how fast we get them out.

Ideally, I would like to finish the patch before the end of this year.

>>73257737
Really? Cool. Terms will be switched over to ISP, right?

so how's digital devil saga? I've been playing nocturne and it's cool, but the frequency of battles and the dungeons annoy me a bit, plus the fact that it's mostly 90 degree angles and stuff. when I finish nocturne I'm thinking of getting DDS1
>>
>>73264353
If you don't mind more of the same, then go ahead. The DDS games are great.

If you want something different then you can play the Raidou games
>>
>>73264353
Nocturne doesn't have that frequent of battles compared to other JRPGs and other SMTs.

Fuck, I still get nightmares thinking about how many encounters Skies of Arcadia has, just trying to walk through a dungeon was a nightmare. Should I get that item? No fuck it, that's like 4 fights.
>>
>>73264353
Its pretty good, definitely get it. No demon negotiations but you and your party are the demons. Skill grid and all that good stuff.
>>
>>73264572
At least in the Game Cube version they toned it down.
>>
>>73264353 here.
I'll probably try Raidou just to give myself a break from RPGs in general and maybe then move onto DDS. But no negotiating? As long as you can still recruit demons I guess that's fine, but has me curious about how it's done
>>
>>73264353
No demon fusion/recruiting so you gotta work on that mantra grid if you don't want to get screwed down the line
>>
>>73265482
DDS is a more traditional JRPG. You have party members. You fight demons, but you don't recruit them.

Unsure how much you know but hell, may as well ask.

Will Baofu (instead of Paofu) and Ulala (instead of Urara) still be used?

Will you use the voice acting from the English version of EP, or just keep the Japanese voices? On one hand it's a pretty bad dub with tons of overacting and corny delivery, but on the other hand, I've gotten really attached to the voice clips used in battles.

Yeah, the only thing that's really coming to mind are spell names (Maha->Ma, Holy->Light, etc.) and a small tweak about how the Sumaru Genie is an intersex clubber (and not really a fortune teller).

Not to mention 3DS is region locked.
Pirate is the only way to show them that such practices are unacceptable.
>>
>>73273459
You know that SMT IV is digital only and by Atlus, not NISA, right?
Not that it won't cost a lot more than it should, of course.

But yeah, NISA is fucking ridiculous. Now think that those limited editions are only available and their website, and the pound to euro exchange ratio.
If Persona Q's limited edition is 60 pounds, I'd be paying around 90 euros. Which I won't, of course.

Ah, I can't wait for the GateWay team to release a version compatible with 7.x (and supposedly 8.x) firmwares.

By which you mean "Pirating is the only way to make them increase the prices even more to make up for lost sales," right?
>>
>>73273715
>What is the reason for smt1 psx ?
SNES one is outdated as hell, looks terrible (due to no textures in dungeons, only flat colored walls) and has less content than psx version. Also as far as i know the psx smt1 work has been going for like 2 years now but was sort of in limbo for a while due to lack of programmer, they resumed recently since the devil summoner psp programmer joined.
>>
>>73273748
That's not how it works, they will never get sales in Europe if they treat their customers like shit and you're a fucking drone if you approve of that.

It's either that or they just stop selling you things at all.

I'm not saying what they're doing is right, but what you're doing certainly isn't going to fix it. I don't know what would, but it's not like it really matters. You'd just pirate the games anyway, even if the price was reasonable, wouldn't you?

>"We're not selling as many games as we'd like. We should increase the price to make each sale count for more."
Except that's not true since they literally launched the EU store on 1st of July and the prices have been set at that ridiculous point since the start.
You're a fucking retard incapable of basic comprehension, especially since games here sell a lot more than in USA. NISA is flat out being jews, trying to exploit Europe.
