Why not combine them?

Best DeSu2.
>>84542576
>Not wanting to fuck Midori, then cuddling with her afterward, hugging her, and never letting her go
DeSu2 isn't best.They're both good.
>>84543024
>15 years old
>>84543173
And? Age is just a number.
>>84543024
Midori a shit. Also,
>not wanting to fuck Naoya
What's wrong with you anon?
>>84543601
I'm not gay
>>84543341
Plus DeSu2, like DeSu1, takes place in an isolated city filled with demons, in a state of chaos.
If you aren't gonna take Midori during the Lockdown, you can AFTER it's all over.
Plus, she wants you anyway by the Last Day, so it's win/win.
(Only exception is Naoya's Ending; the "evil as fuck" one where you fight Betatron, NOT the Benevolent Lord Abel one.).
>>84543601
I dunno, maybe it's because I'm an only child.
Besides, I'd rather knock him out andsteal his robe / cape / whatever it is.
Just LOOK at it! It's all green and black, and has the Matrix Raining Code on it (in game)! In the pic you just posted, it looks like a form of flowing hardware; that's the only way I can describe it.Could you use that cape or whatever to summon demons, seeing as it looks electronic / mechanical, despite being clothing?
Imagine that:
A DEMON SUMMONING PROGRAM YOU CAN LITERALLY WEAR!
>>84544037
>actually wanting to fuck a 15 year old camwhore (she really is, it's practically stated in the game itself) with a nails-on-chalkboard voice and a brain with the capacity of an insect
>>84543854
Naoya confirmed the route of rotten homosex.
>>84544372
>>actually wanting to fuck a 15 year old camwhore (she really is, it's practically stated in the game itself)
In regards to the setting of the game, being Tokyo under a lockdown due to demons being loose, yeah. Both during and after the lockdown.What is the legal age in Japan anyway?
>with a nails-on-chalkboard voice
Not played DeSuOC. Not applicable.
>and a brain with the capacity of an insect
Now that's just mean. She isn't that bad.
On the other hand, she and Keisuke are already a couple.
Might as well go for Amane.
>>84544615
>she and Keisuke are already a couple.
The only time the game implies this is when Atsuro says so, and even then Keisuke denies it. That's it.
>>84544615
>She isn't that bad.
She isn't that bad? She's so thick that she doesn't stop for a quarter of a second to think that what she's doing isn't helping. How many times did Midori get herself into situations where her life was hanging in the balance due to her misguided ideas of justice via It's only after Abel and co verbally beat some sense into her that she realises there are consequences for her actions and that she can't go around parading her magical justice bullshit.
>On the other hand, she and Keisuke are already a couple.
That's not even remotely true, and if there were any romantic feelings it was one-sided by way of Keisuke.
>84544037
In his route he'll probably give it to you if you ask, no need to use violence.But I get what you're saying. Fuck the Overlord's/Messiah cape, I want Naoya's tooI-I doubt you can use it to summon demons, though...
>>84543854
I guess that's an acceptable answer.
>>84544943
Wow I really butchered my post there, jesus christ.
>>84544790
Keisuke TRIES to deny it, but seriously. The guy went on a judgemental rampage on everybody just because people were planning to kill Midori for doing her "Magical Justice". For him to care about her that much to go on his rampage, there's some real emotion there.
And Midori seems to be very aware of that, and teases Keisuke about it when Atsuro lampshades it.
>>84544943
>>84545064
No problem, Anon.
But yeah I do see your point.
Just keep in mind the whole situation of DeSu, with the Tokyo Lockdown, demons everywhere, people getting Rent, Slaughtered, and Devoured, and all the NPCs learning to form gangs and use COMPs themselves...
Of course Midori will do what SHE THINKS is best in such a situation, even though it did make things worse until Abel and Co. helped, as you said.
Also, what do you think about Naoya's Cape?And the idea that you could use it as a wearable DSP.
>What is the deal with all these casuals not fusing Pascal? Seriously, like every post since iOS came out is people not doing it.
>>84545578
Wouldn't the game be harder by not fusing Pascal?

>>84545480
>The guy went on a judgemental rampage on everybody just because people were planning to kill Midori for doing her "Magical Justice".
See I think you're forgetting what Keisuke went through before the events of the game, and the resulting changes that occurred in him. What's happening to Midori while she has her COMP is the exact kind of thing that he went through when he tried to stand up for kids who were getting their shit kicked in, right down to threats of violence. He's acting so brashly because he relates 100% to the situation.
I'm not saying that what Midori was doing was wrong, because it was right. She had the right idea but she was executing it in the worst way possible, and never stopping to think how she's being viewed by the people she's attempting to rescue from the gaping maw of that Abbadon over there.
Also I don't care for Naoya's cloak at all, but I like the shirt.
>>84545761
Yes, but it's more like they just don't seem to know to or have some moral obligation. idk.
I fused him. I felt like shit, but I fused him.
>>84545971
Ease up there turbo.
>Aleph will need 10 MAG and 10 INT at certain points in the game. Aside from that, a VIT/STR build as usual.
So should I focus on Int and Mag until they're both 10 right at the start, or will I find enough Incense-type items to boost the stats so I can focus on Str/Vit during level ups?
>>84546091
You don't need the MAG till near end game, but INT is for negotiating and shit.
Do all your VR Training or be prepared to eat shit.
>>84545986
>Feeling like shit for giving your dog a powerful, immortal demon body
There were no downsides.
Oh wow.
>Brute Momunofu wants to talk to you
>Heh, I need to be nice once in a while

It's beautiful.
>>84546432
You mean aside from him being alone for years and years?
>>84546580
And people say demons are bad.
>>84546660
How is that worse than him being dead?
>>84546705
They're just tools we use for the mission. That was just a tactic to catch you off guard.
>>84546760
I don't know man, I don't know.
>>84545971
Wow you're mad. Sure YOU'RE not the cancer in this discussion?
>>84546802
Wow, you again. Sure you aren't infected with the Delphinus Parasite? I WOULD brainwash you so you'd stop being a toxic asshole, but I'm not a lawfag. Even if I was, I wouldn't be a diehard one.
You on the other hand seem like the perfect image of delusion and rage. Gonna turn into Psycho Apollyon sometime?
>>84546760
It isn't.
>>84546705
When they aren't assholes or outright want you dead, yeah.
>>84546580
>tfw one of your demons wants to talk to you
>They give you an Incense or Bead of Life
Hell yes.
>>84546836
That's what they WANT you to think.

>>84546351
Yeah I figured the Int was for negotiating. And I learned pretty quickly I should've trained more in the VR, got my ass handed to me in the arena maze. Speaking of, can you start recruiting demons in that maze or no?
>>84547486
I'm Neutral and I don't think that.
Also, this Anon (not the one I'm replying to) clearly doesn't have anything better to do than to be a toxic asshole and type as incoherently as possible. What a true plebian.
>>84548049
Nope. Also, your HP will remain the same like you entered when you come back out, but anything involving Demons usage will carry over.

Much appreciated. You're a true comrade to /smtg/, Janitor/Mod
Based janitors
>>84548289
Be careful what you say about Digital Devils.
There are some among us here. And some of them may not be as comprehending as I am.
Are there any emulators for iOS apps?SMT on Android when?
Also I read or heard somewhere once that in the first game if you fail to recruit a demon twice you'll never be able to recruit it ever again. This seems like bullshit, was I just being fucked with?
>>84548626
You were being fucked with
>>84548626
No, and never.

Well, another pic to add to my /r/list.
So far:
1- YHVH literally driving Merkabah
2- Metatron as Megatron
3- Megatron as Metatron
4- Hexafusion of Kanji from P4, Kenji from P3, and King Kenji from SMT IV

I'm sorry
>>84555071
That depends. I just want the basic ideas down this early. Once I take a writing class or two at the university, maybe I might get to being a writefag "for the glory of /smtg", and write out all these ideas into reality.Didn't that already happen in P2:IS?
But wait, which Hades? The only ones I know that are feasible, are:
Disney Hercules Hades
Original Greek Mythology Hades
Kid Icarus Uprising Hades
>>84555071
What does "ED" stand for in your context, anyway?

>>84555917
Damm again SE.
>>84555917
OK then. That could work, for those who LIKE NTR. I personally don't, but I could write it with the main one for the benefit of NTRfags
But who to NTR Hinako WITH?
Io?
Fumi?
Airi?
Makoto?
Otome?
FemTico?
So many options to choose from to write about...
>>84556435
Yeah bro, thanks for the support.Hercules Hades is precisely on par with Kid Icarus Hades. They're both good in their own ways.

but it happening to them?
pls no
>>84556934
Thats not NTR (Your GF gets stolen), Thats Nitori (You stole someone GF).
I think it works in anime because the MC is either a beta or he is annoying thus the one who NTR becomes the hero of the story.
There can only be one. World of STR or world of MAG?
http://strawpoll.me/2820925
>>84557343
But no one uses nitori. Everything is just lumped into NTR, regardless of perspective.
>>84557343
>Thats not NTR (Your GF gets stolen), Thats Nitori (You stole someone GF).
B-but I self insert into the GF!
>>84557694
They are wrong, if you want to search for a game were the MC NTR someone then the MC will stole some guy GF.
With NTR you play as the beta faggot while he sees his GF/Wife gets fucked.
>>84557818
Thats not NTR thats being a slut (In wich case the girl is the MC).
I want to fuck Mirai
>>84559073

>>84561280
>Trying to murder someone who has only ever loved you
How would you react if they updated YHVH's appearance, like Lucifer in SMTIV?
>>84562594
They'd have to if they ever want to use him again.
>>84562594
you say that like ol shadow-orc has been in more than one game
So, smtg. Given how little mp you have, I'm thinking having both war cry and fog breath isn't worth it. What about counter?
>>84562594
His style would work better for YHVH than it did for Lucifer.
>>84566647
Counter is generally worth it for a STR build. Keep War Cry over fog breath.
>>84566647
I'm assuming Nocturne?
Fog Breath is more important than War Cry, and War Cry appears more on demons.
You can have counter, but I don't like to have it in case I end up countering something that has repel/drain phys, or end up wasting my power charge on a counter
>>84566647
this Nocturne? Counter/Retaliate are pretty good when you can get to them, but by the time you get to the final dungeon you'll want to swap it out for resist/null/absorb reflect, because too many enemies can bounce your counter right back at you or just eat it up.
For the same reason, you don't want reflect phys. It's too tedious to have enemies with absorb phys hit you and get that health back
>>84550932
Before the end of the game, when you are restarting the world, she comes very close to, or may be she does based on her attitude.

Io is obviously pushed but not to the point were you can discard the others. Just like Persona 3 pushes Aigis but doesnt mean she is the ONE.
Need some help with the Munakata boss fight in the first Raidou game. So he summons the Hiruko that stun you so that he can do his death beam, and you're supposed to dodge/return your demon. Easy peasy. Except every time he does it after the first time, he summons the Hiruko inside me so I get insta-stunned by it. What am I doing wrong?
>>84571671
equip a null death sword and pray you're fast enough on the healing

I saw one of these for the DDS cast, and I need it.
If you have more of these with cut-ins featuring other MegaTen characters, that'd be much appreciated.
Because while Persona may be a slightly arguement-causing topic here at /smtg/, you can't deny the cut-ins look nice and badass.

They'll add George from Persona 4 Platinum of course.
>>84579172
Well they will add the P5 cast for P4A3.
How fun is a magic build in Nocturne? I'm well aware that it is horribly subpar compared to a strength build, but how fun is it? Thinking about replaying for an ending other than TDE
>>84583770
I'm more excited for Person 5 Racing.
>>84584351
>horribly subpar
Not really, it was my build in my first playthrough and it's super viable.
>>84584738
That gives me hope then. Because I honestly do love magic builds. Now to figure out what ending to aim for.
>>84585160
>what ending to aim for.Freedomof course.
>That gives me hope then. Because I honestly do love magic builds.
I love magic builds too, that's why i ignored everyone saying that STR is the way to go and went full MAG, i didn't now much about nocturne and i didn't know about masakados, which i got and used against the final boss but because i was ignorant of it's existence until the end of the game imaxed MAG, but it was super fun using a magic build, nocturne is amazing and no matter how many times i play it i feel like i want to play it again, my hunger is eternal.
>>84585160

Its obvious that Midori LIKES the MC as if you do her events the game mentions she actively searching times for you two to talk alone.
MidorixKeisuke is just DeSu´s KanjixNaoto, heavily portrayed but ultimately not something confirmed.
>>84587137
Fumi is the better battle character and I like Fumi more as a character.
But you still have great taste.
Most DeSu2 girls are pretty great, other than Io.
>>84588726
Don't you like anti gravity tots?
THREE DAYS UNTIL SMT IV EU.
>>84588726
I used Fumi Hinako Joe in my first playthrough and Hinako is pretty much the perfect physical character for the game because of her high AG.
But yeah, Fumi's MA is pretty much unrivaled in the game.
Then again, there can be only one holy dancer and that is the MC.
>>84589738
Fumi leans towards High MAG, AG, and VIT
She's a beast in battle.

Seriously. Literally every single piece of art, right down to the box art, has her signature imminent nip slip. It's revealing yet subtle. How could you not love that.
On a side note, with PQ coming on my b-day, why not treat my self to a 3ds? Is Overclocked worth getting even though I played the original to death?

>Is Overclocked worth getting even though I played the original to death?
Combat system is still worse than DeSu2.
I'm slowly progressing through all the endings, but it gets really boring playing through it for the umphteenth time especially because like you, I played the original to death.
Get it if you can get it for cheap,same goes for Soul Hackers, it's not stellar
How do I use the flying item in SMT IV?
Also what would have happened if I'd have refused to give the relics when he asked for them one at a time?

If you don't already have one, it's worth waiting for 3DS New. Shit is like the same price p much.
Unless he wants to buy used.
>Pat mentions SMT1 "Turn if off" on new Shitstorm
A lot of SMT mentions for a Persona major.
>>84598061
Wat
explain
>>84598251
I'm gonna assume you mean to explain "Turn it off".

I think Gideon confirmed it to be BS, but I dunno,
>>84597123
>P5 Will just stick to the touched-up demon models and mythological/literary references
>P5 won't have real people and loved ones as personas
And it's a YHVHdamned shame too. I bet they won't even add P5 exclusive myth figures as persona to keep things fresh either.
Nobody here actually ever discusses DDS right?

Yeah, I think the story behind it was that the video was a creepypasta-esqe rumor and someone on niconico faked that video.

sometimes.
SMT really sucks ATM when you think about it, last good game was, what, Strange Journey?
And it seems Atlus is intent on being humongous Jews. More Personas up the ass, no proper SMT for consoles...
Shit son, all I ever wanted was an HD SMT with a big detailed world, proper battle animations, etc. Fuck me right.
>>84598494
>no 3D model of Mastema for a persona
>>84599040
IMAGINE if you had something like it.
>>84599019
Well thats why Persona general exists, here is the place to talk about P1&2 though.
>>84599040SMT 4 was good though.
i beat persona 3 and persona 4 oneasy
they were my first JRPGs. i didnt have to use a single continue in p4.
think im ready to play Nocturne on normal?
Sorry for being a faggot and asking a question but I am trying to fuse a Sati in Nocturne I have Onknot and seems with Horus it makes Sati but I can't find a recipe for a Horus or does anyone know how a different recipe for Sati?

>>84599325

But as long as you have half a brain, Nocturne will be fine for you.
>>84599325
You can do whatever you want.

I play games on easy, suck my dick.

>>84599040
>only thing I ever wanted was muh graphix
yeah, fuck you
Just beat Persona 2 Innocent Sin. Pretty good ending, although it seems kinda cliche.
Did you guys thank or hit Philly? I hit 'em. Lel.
Also, is Persona 2: Eternal Punishment worth playing? What's it about?
>>84599181
I sure loved waiting 10 years to play the sequel to Nocturne on a cell phone tier piece of hardware. With shit demon designs. And sprites. And no animations.
>>84599469
If you're playing games for the story you're essentially wasting time that could be spent reading an actual good book
Don't pretend there's a single game that compares to high literature
>>84599478
>a big world filled with content instead of lame menu navigation is bad
>proper animations are bad
>detailed character and demon models are bad
>everything that superior hardware can offer is bad
No wonder Atlus gets away with this shit.
>>84599564
>Don't pretend there's a single game that compares to high literature
Honestly man, that all comes down to opinion. The same could be said about anime and movies. Any media could deliver pleasurable material that stimulates the brain.
>>84599493
It's like a sequel/alternate reality. New story. It's not like P3/P3FES.
>>84599019
I absolutely hate Marieand would hatefuck her into oblivion
>>84599493
Everyone hits Philly
Eternal punishment is the second part of P2 so yeah it's worth playing
>>84599529
>With shit demon designs. And sprites. And no animations.
But that means nothing. If Nocturne was like that it would still be good.
>>84599639
Have fun playing video games for the "story" and continuing to learn nothing
>>84599675
>>84599645
is there an ETA release date for the improved japanese version? i heard the translation in PS1 EP was butchered
>>84599376
A kelpie and a power can make a sati.
>>84599564
I read stupid books too. And manga. And watch shows. And sometimes movies. This is why I'm over 10yrs behind on any given media type.
Let me put it in words you can understand. When it comes to media, I cannot escape my hunger.
If I like something enough, I'll play through it again on another setting.
>>84599564
>implying
>>84599634
I never said they are bad things, but if that's all you care about it's kinda sad.
>>84599781
>continuing to learn nothing
What do books such as Dante's Inferno and The Scarlett Letter teach anyone? Jeeze. You're acting like you're better than everyone else just because you've read a few recs off the /lit/-newfag macro. Fuck off.
>>84599883
>literally watered-down philosophy 101 as could be found in your local community college
anonymous pls
>>84599564
Go back to /lit/, fagget.
>>84599678
But it would be worse.
And SMT4 is worse than Nocturne. It's a step down in 90% of departments.
SMT fans are such beggars, you guys accept pure horseshit downgrades as long as you get anything. Pathetic.

>What do books such as Dante's Inferno and The Scarlett Letter teach anyone?
ROFL
>>84599040
I really hate assfaggots as much as the next guy, but imagine a fast-pace thirdperson assfaggots SMT game. Casuals love that stuff so I could be easy money. You could take the place of a demon summoner facing off 5v5 against other people.
If they wanted to leach off of real money cosmetics they could give demon skins that change the model, such as an Orthrus model for Cerberus. Hell, they give you a model you could customize and have follow your demon around in their lane.
Heck add some classic rpg elements to the game. Have special "mission" you could que up for where you fight agains multiple demons or AI controlled super demons. "Fuse" skins and alt-models for new skins and models.
So, shit idea, or no?
>>84599564
>implying that the law ending of II is not the highest of all literature.
>>84599792
No, and I heard EP was fine. It's P1 that is all American.
>>84600127
You're a real nigger, you know that? Go read a history book such as the Greek Histories or The Interpretation of Dreams if you want to learn something you fucking faggot.
>>84600064
What you want is better presentation, not a better game.
Here's an example you may understand: Take Halo CE anniversary. You can change the graphics between the updated and original between a push of a button. If you're playing on the updated graphics, the presentation is better, yet the gameplay is unaffected.
Giving an SMT game 3D models, etc. wouldn't improve the game, just the presentation.
>>84599792
Only thing that was butchered was the voice acting.CIAO
>>84587137
>You didn't let the fucker live did you?
Course I did. Went for Amane instead.

Can you do this same build I used in DeSu1 in DeSu2, but better? Just wondering cuz I haven't played DeSu2.

Reply to half the thread, why don't you?
Is Nocturne worth it still if /v/ already spoiled me on something? They told me theMC's best friend dies
Also for someone who came off of SMT IV would it still be relatively difficulty for them?
>>84600713
>Drain
Oh fuck the visions are starting again
I fought Babel under leveled, doing nothing but Holy Dancing and Draining. Everyone was dead, even my demons, but I just kept draining. It was the worst war of attrition I ever fought.Shit was still fun though.
>>84600945
Nocturne Spoiler alert:Chiaki and Isamu can hardly be called friends and EVERYBODY DIES.
>>84600945
>Is Nocturne worth it still if /v/ already spoiled me on something? They told me theMC's best friend dies
Just get used to it.
There's a reason why "All my friends are dead" is in our recommended reading.
>>84600945
That doesn't really count as a spoiler. Its harder than iv, but not terrible.
>>84600945
It's SMT. Everyone dies. It's whether you bring them back or not that matters.
And I didn't find the dificulty any diffrent from IV. Matador is a wake up call but other than that, it's pretty normal.
>>84600996
Nice save.
>>84601109
>>84600945
And regarding the difficulty, it's harder but more fair than IV.
It's easy to adapt to most roadblocks like Matador in Nocturne, whereas early fights in IV are hoping they don't crit+smirk
>>84600713
I'm usually the one to defend you when people whine about you replying to so much people but this is just too much
>>84601230
There are people right now in this very general who don't consider amane's ending the true one. Especially on overclocked where they pretend loki is the mid level boss for day 8.
>>84601396
What's you alignment?
>>84601396
I dunno, I liked Noaya's ending better, especially when you can get everyone to join you at the end.
>>84601348
>>84601225
>>84601121
>>84601109
well fuck it i'll get it then. I just wish it was on a handheld.
>>84601542
Play strange journey then, scrub.
>>84601757
Speaking of strange journey, does retarded literature anon realize that reading books, as well as more modern things like games which reference them are useful to do together? You don't need to have them be a battle. Like for instance when they mentioned dante, you realize thatin strange journey, the law ending is kind of based on dante's description of heaven where each person has a particular seat they more or less reside in, but everyone there still communes as one collective, since they're no longer bound by their body. Strange journey doesn't really say whether they never leave the pillars, but it looks like that's the case, and yet in the ending zelenin is still talking to you directly.
>>84599040
It costs too much to make a console game now, that's why they ignored the PS3 until P5 which is the only game that would sell well enough to justify the effort
The persona spinoffs can fuck right of though
>>84600246
>Lucifer in the party
>Law ending
>>84602198
SMT is the naked lunch of games, anyway.
>>84602198
Man, the law ending disturbs me so much.
>>84602685
>Utopia
>Disturbs you
Why? I would absolutely want this to happen in real life, all jokes aside.
>>84602779
>Literally no free will
>constantly praising an arrogant tyrant's name until the end of all days
Jeminez was roght
>>84602779
it's worse than extinction. at least with extinction there's still some chance of human culture being preserved and found by others. in the law end humanity just 'stops', and all past history is forgotten and all future history is made impossible. humanity is castrated, lobotomized, and put out to pasture.
There's nothing utopic about spending eternity in a coma.
>>84603008
Who cares? Sure, it chafes a little bit thinking about it while we still have free will and ego. But we'd be blissful for eternity. If given a choice between free will and happiness I choose happiness.
>>84603141
Why should I care about progress or history? They're both tools to try to attain happiness on a societal level. If we can achieve happiness forever for everyone, I'd gladly give them up. I don't see what's wrong with having sweet dreams for eternity.
>>84603334
i must kill you for the sake of my wife and my happiness.
>>84603453
And I you.
>>84603334
why not just blow your life savings on drugs and spend the rest of your life in bliss, then.
I'm new to SMT and decided to play all of the main series in order, should I get the Kyūyaku Megami Tensei for the first and second?
>>84603639
Yes.
>>84603639
play the nes one, fagget.
>>84603627
Because drugs are imperfect and have equally bad lows as they have highs. I prefer to live in naive contentment than to feel momentary highs. Not really SMT at this point though.
>>84603334
>I don't see what's wrong with having sweet dreams for eternity.
Why don't you kill yourself then? You'll definitely have sweet dreams for eternity.
