Unironically looks like goyslop
SMTV was boring grindfest. Only contrarians hating Persona would pretend to like it. I dont believe any of you actually played it long enough for your opinion to matter. Whatever this game will be, cant be much worse SMTV or SH2. Persona 5 was step in the right direction, no matter how hard you'll cry about it
You need to say "le goyslop" to fit in now. Get with the trends
>SMT
>grind
You unironically fricking suck at video games
OG P5 was grindy but fixed in Royal
Back in my daying grinding in a jarpig meant going out of your way to kill random encounters over and over again because you suck and can't beat the bosses without over leveling. Nowadays I have no idea what you kids mean when you call jarpigs grindy because you guys point to games my mom could beat
>SMTV was boring grindfest
Maybe if you actively avoid all combat encounters like a troglodyte. For fricks sake the game hands out free levels through the demon statues you find via exploring and through a stackable item.
I would describe SMT V as the least grindy SMT game of all (and none of the other games are grindy in the first place)
>SMTV was boring grindfest
Jesus, I was incredibly disappointed with SMTV but you're either just outright lying or absolutely atrocious at video games.
>saying goyslop unironically
You're unironically a homosexual.
Whoa that style looks cool af
>medieval setting
Eh… dropped
like smt4 at begining but look what happen with it.
Medieval didn't have steam ships you fricking mongoloid
It was originally a medieval setting but they seem to have changed it to more of a mid to late Renaissance setting.
Found the atheist.
I take back everything I said about SMTV, How the hell did they make this look worse when its a current gen release
People thought new IP means different game. Persona being Persona and SMT being SMT is one thing, but that stuff bleeding over into the new game is stupid.
They literally said that this is quote "Not Persona" and "Not Megami Tensei" but something new. Meanwhile the game is just Persona 5 2 but with the setting of some Isekai tranime.
Atlus is dead
It was supposed to be a traditional fantasy JRPG and definitely distinct from the modern day human condition oriented Persona/SMT bullshit.
Well, at least that's my reason to be mad.
I don't like Persona. I'm not touching anything with a calendar system.
>I'm not touching anything with a calendar system.
What did Rune Factory ever do to you?
It didn't let him marry the dragon one time too many.
Because this is isekai Persona featuring door-kun.
>brown protag
i'm mad because if they put calendarshit into this they'll definitely force it into persona 6
I'm not angry? I think it looks cool. But I find it funny they went out of their way to say this would be something different when its clearly not.
Dunno why people would be mad over more Persona, there's been 3 mainline games since 2006. Meanwhile so many other series release 5x games in the same period
From the minds at Atlus...
Seven years in development.
the UI looks great
but the idea of making a medieval persona doesn't
I find it interesting how Ganker would get upset at this considering that so many beloved JRPGs are just "X but in a different setting".
God I hope this fairy double crosses you.
Why the distrust for fairies?
Bravely Default already did that
>i-it’s totally not Persona, though!!!!!!
Calling it "P5 clone" really does set the newBlack folk who only came in with P5 apart from the rest, doesn't it?
I'm going to get so much mileage out of this image.
>practically every post agrees with it
are you moronic
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Don't tell me you're criticizing this game only to turn around and praise Yakuza when it has done this exact shit billions of times.
Motherfricker. If RGG said "we're making a brand new IP that will be ambitious and fresh, it's NOT Yakuza, it's NOT Judgment, it's something brand new" and then they went silent for 7 years and then showed off a fricking Yakuza clone, I would be pissed.
persona is not defined by a fricking calender system and a flashy ui you dumb turbo Black person.
What is it defined by?
nta but I always defined Persona more by it's contemporary high school setting, Persona system, focus on modern personal/societal issues and the 1 MORE system.
>I always defined Persona by uhhhh *pulls shit out of his ass to think of whatever he can that isn't in the Metaphor trailer*
Doesn't Metaphor have not-personas?
I agree with him tbh. I'd say this is in the same genre as persona but 'persona clone' is just being hysterical.
You're insane.
You don't think of Jap HS when you think of Persona?
Persona is defined by the modern high school setting and a focus on character's inner demons and societal issues. It was created in contrast to SMT's post apocalypse and Law vs Chaos autism after the success of SMT if.
>turn based combat
And thank fricking god for that. Atlus suck at everything else.
>"Archetypes" which are what a character uses to fight, like a persona
We've now gotten to the point where a character summoning something to fight for him is now considered copying Persona and not SMT. Amazing. Plus there's also the transforming aspect that you can consider to be a copy from DDS.
>long story stated by studio zero themselves
JRPGs don't have long stories?
>social sim elements
The only actual thing you can consider a copy from Persona, but we don't know how deep it is.
>We've now gotten to the point where a character summoning something to fight for him is now considered copying Persona and not SMT. Amazing.
when it is a certain character specifically summoning an otherworldly entity while remaining their own character, yes, that is Persona. SMT is summoning the entity itself, not summoning them via another character like a stand. ex. demi-fiend summons [DEMON] to fight, Yu summons Izanagi himself to fight with him
>transforming aspect that you can consider to be a copy from DDS.
didn't even know re:fantasy had transforming.
>we don't know how deep it is.
there's literally social stats, they didn't even try to do something new
>Same combat
>Similar UI
>Same starting party (male rebel, hot girl, animal-like mascot)
>Same director and music score
>Same gameplay tropes (Social Links, calendar cycle, five non-combat character stats)
stop staring at me with them big ole eyes
you're right, it's definied by turn based combat, character's having an alter ego to attack called a "persona", a long intricate story with social simulation elements.
re:fantasy has

>long story stated by studio zero themselves

nusona is however defined by
>slinks
>social stats
>calender system
>megaten combat with one more and fixed members
the only hope I have for refantasy is that it will finally unfrick the calender system by condensing it to a few months at most
Looks sick, I'm quite excited to see more
Didn't like P5 or SMT5.
Want a blobber
Wasnt the tagline for refantasy
> This is not Persona
> This is not Shin Megami Tensei
> This is a new type of game brought by studio zero or whatever the frick
And it ended up smt x persona.
Blame SH2. Soul Hackers was supposed to be the 3rd core franchise but it was such a tetraflop they had to make Refantasy fall into that niche instead
Yep. And homosexuals are still wondering why we're pointing out its similarities to Persona.
I would be fine with it if they didn't take so much from Persona. The character designs look pretty shit though I wish they kept the medieval look from the original reveal.
>calendar
>social stats
>magnetite
That menu design exudes the feeling of trying too hard. Also, the character designs are shittier than the usual personaslop.
The UI always looks like it's going to poke me in the eye.
>Atlus has made nothing but SMT and Persona in the last decade
etriam bros forgotten yet again...
>show cool concept art
>say it wont be persona
>years pass
>game revealed
>it's persona
im just mad they aren't releasing it for playstation, nobody plays atlus games on pc
I do
Is it on PC? I can't find it on Steam
it has no release date, so you won't be able to pre order yet.
Don't even want to pre order it just put it in my wishlist so I don't forget about it
it was shown at the xbox showcase you dumb fricking Black person, just wait a few days
this is a stupid argument and you know it. they have zero reason to announce a ps release separate
Black person are you moronic? MS has a media blackout on mentioning other platforms just wait a few more days homosexual
it's bait, just don't reply nobody is that stupid
We'll have to wait one more day or two. They'll announce its multiplat and then what will you do?
Laugh at the other guy for being an idiot, and you for quoting the wrong person.
LOL, Well I hope that homosexual sees it. I got the wrong preson
didn't figure they did this, ngl. most other companies don't give a shit and i don't keep in the loop about them
rude
see THIS is what i meant by
>zero reason
>MS giving them a shit ton of cash
dumb fricking Black person
It's always like this man. I've got an XboxSX and I can tell you, the thing has zero exclusives. Every game announced by Japanese companies will be on the PS5 too.
I do
Love the fact we get to play as the last human in a fantasy setting, sounds dope.
>What?
Because the promise of this game was Atlus doing something different, and they spent all these years on it only to look exactly the same as all the other stuff they do.
>Group A is appeased
>Group B complains
>Group B is appeased
>Group A complains
Why do you morons get surprised by this phenomenon?
What kind of armor is this supposed to be?
Armor fit for a king.
Metaphor on Switch NEVER EVER
I just hope the game releases finished rather than missing the entire second act like pic related
I hope the game releases with an OST that isn't fricking dogshit like SMTV. no idea how Kozuka thought V's OST good in anyway
So what exactly is the setting for this anyways? Trailer looked liked the world kept flip-flopping between generic fantasy land and something more modern.
It looked like the modern world but then all these fantasy jerks showed up.
I need to learn more about the game before writing this off as a Persona spinoff, but I also saw nothing in the trailer to get exited about so maybe this game just isn't for me
>company I like says they're making something new
>its not actually new
>y mad?????
I dunno, it looks neat. I'll probably play it.
Atlus took all of the worst character design aspects from Persona 5 (the stupid Phantom Thieves outfits) and applied them tenfold on the right.
that was the most popular aspect of the game
expect P6 to also have dumb outfits
