AHHHHHH SEEEEEEEEEX
she should not wear those on her feet, that is too lewd
are you suggesting she doesn't wear shoes at all then
Stupid brat, turning tsuntsun after already confessing
I might think about replaying it when they release the PC port
I won't until then.
>emulate on yuzu
>crashes constantly
>emulate on ryu
>crashes constantly but also stutters
It’s been a couple years, did ATLUS say when/if it’s coming to PC?
I've finished the game on ryujinx recently. There are some stutters atfer you load the area for the first time for shader compilations, but finishes quickly and it's smooth after that. And I had maybe ~two crashes per ~80h playthrough. I'd say it was a perfectly fine as far as emulator experience goes.
have you tried playing it on a nintendo switch
The PC version has been leaked a few times, but no official word on when yet.
I tried it a while ago and one of them would run like shit independent from graphic settings and the other ran perfectly but would crash. Maybe it's been fixed by now. I can deal with the stutter from shader compilation but the lag wasn't that.
You forgot to mention the homosexual robot that wants your ass and says nice things to you all game.
>but I just spam A during all his dialog
You are weak.
>the homosexual robot
he is (You), fool
Yes he is inside you at all times.
I'M DA JOKAH BABY
For me, it's Nuwa.
How do Nuwa gays even feel about her being completely taken? Don't waifu gays sperg over that shit? She might as well be married.
Idk I just really like legs and feet and hers are top tier.
Maybe I just don't understand when it bothers people and when it doesn't.
>character is a bawd
people dislike her
>she is taken and the game never pretends otherwise
nobody cares
Oh so it's only when the possibility of cuck shit exists.
I thought not!Raidou was more like her great(x a few dozen times) grandson
He's her lover. Also his childhood friend, she used to larp as a schoolgirl when he was growing up.
better game than FF13, FF15, and FF16
why did they give ose such a firm looking asd
Is this a good entry for someone that never tried a SMT game before?
sure
Just don't expect a good story, otherwise it's a pretty fun game
The story is fine. I'm tired of pretending it's not.
fine?
sure
good?
no way
>Just don't expect a good story
Is it mediocre or bad?
Because i can live with the former.
It's just barely exists for 90% of the game and goes to shit at the last 10% but it's not like at that point you should even care too much about it, the main draw of V is the gameplay
>It's just barely exists for 90% of the game
Cool, i have played jrpgs with even less than that.
It's not bad at all. In between all the story beats there are plenty of demons to talk to and lore to read about given to you in bits and pieces. I will not pretend like it's bad to read about shit characters did off screen when you're not talking to or walking in on them.
Not bad at first but the final act just kinda shots itself woth plotholes and way too sudden character developments. Probably because the game was in development hell and would have dealt with other topics that never made it in other than a bullying is bad subplot that ends quickly
Law: God is dead, frick it we ballin' anyway
Chaos: We'll make our own casino with blackjack and hookers
Neutral: Snek waifu and her not-Raidou simp
It's not a bad story, just not a dense story.
You'll probably have fun, but I think any other mainline SMT works as a better example of what the series is all about.
Im not normally into hags... HOWEVER
What does demon snake pussy smell like
Like wet clay.
I'm playing SMT IV
FRICK smirk
never understood why people hate 4's smirk so much. the actual issue with 4 is how moronic the damage output is
It's annoying that it make that character practically guaranteed to dodge everything and there's no good counterplay once it's up.
4A making it just block weaknesses and introducing Magaon fixed it entirely for me
>there's no good counterplay once it's up
ailments. smirk doesn't grant ailment evasion and the default hit chance is absurd. they're really fricking good but get slept on because 4's damage is overtuned
even without smirk that would still happen because everything in 4 kills you in 1-3 hits. just a single press turn gained from the initial crit can result in a wipe in early game
I feel like the overtuned damage was intentional for the river styx mechanic but it's still really annoying and the only way to offset it is by grinding
river styx is a really moronic addition. you're already starved for macca as is and the system is pointless since you can save anywhere
>never understood why people hate 4's smirk so much.
>bring an optimal party for a boss and play perfectly
>but the boss lands one crit and activates smirk and wipes out your entire party
it's just complete rng bullshit
Because it already does exactly what press turn does: rewards hitting weaknesses and punishes hitting resistances. There was no reason to double down and tip the entire battle one way or the other right away. It's pointless.
Beano has a surprisingly high amount of art
He would have has 50 times more art if Fatlus wasn't moronic and had just made him a female like they originally wanted.
source?
There really is no source other than Doi saying right after IV he would like V's protag to be female but there is no way that would happen because the "old guard" at Atlus will never allow mainline to have a fem protag. Also V wouldn't change at all if the MC was female (not the Nahobino itself) it would actually make more sense since most of the games are male/female anyway.
so there is no source.
There is 100% a source on Doi saying that though.
You're thinking of Doi saying Nahobino is androgynous because androgyny is associated with divinity in Jap culture.
Well if I had the link to the interview I would send it to you, it's old. It's not the famtisu shit he said about V.
There isn't. They never intended for bino to be a female. I know every single piece of info about V they ever published, Doi says there's an element of femininity to the protag and bino, but never says they wanted him to be female.
I already told you this interview came out right after IV came out. It was like 10 years ago, before V production even started.
I mean pretty much all I can see changing is Young Man becomes Young Maam
Young lady.
What's up with this artist being so secretive with her works?
>Pisaca drooling
I thought he was doing the dicky-crying face at first glance.
I'm mindbroken
I wish she were viable in the lategame for any of these games. can't never bring myself to fuse her away ;_;
She can be viable for end game. She's just not broken like some of the end game demons. But you can make nearly every demon viable in 5 including her.
Sounds good
Sell me the game , is the plot good?
Nah, it's just a retread of Nocturne's story but worse.
III is very overrated.
I will replay it one day. I still need to do solo run under hard diff.
>you choose the alignment at the end
>the true ending is just doing shitty demon quest
>shitty combat tied to the level
the FFXV of SMT games but XV was better
How many times do people go into smt wanting to get a certain ending and making sure to pick the right choices? The amount of people that actually go into smt games and want to get a ending blind is so incredibly small it might as well be comprised of the anal purists that pretend they don't go into an smt game already knowing what alignment they want to go for.
>muh difficulty
Majority of the time you can tell what alignment you're getting pushed into when given options. The only time you'd get surprised or "forced" is shit like in smt1 where if you enter a certain room in the main church towards the end you'll be locked into law or if you had limited options for healing because even that would change your alignment. This shit never came back in the series because people hated this shit.
Options in smt should focus on changing the story path but the ending should be something you choose because it just makes more sense that way. SMTV's fault is having a lot of choices that don't change much about the current story while also having endings you can just pick.
How is the handheld performance?
Also eshop sale when
sex with demons
>it's over, Nahobino-chan
>I am become the Shin Megami Tensei V
>SMT is a coomer franchise now
Why did they ruin it???
>Acting like there weren't sexy demon ladies in the series for decades
>now
I'm cooming
always has been
Whoa... is that an Alice in Wonderland reference?
Enslave and frick demons. Especially the one in the OP. Sexy little flying homosexual.
I made it to level 20 with a MAG build then got really bored since i did MAG in 4a and that game was more in depth about it, even at that point. How's LCK?
>leveling mag
>in a SMT game
shiggydiggy
MAG is op in smt 4/4a
say that to enemies with no mag weaknesses
PIERCE?
i dunno, i had a strength build
it's not a matter of getting around resistances since mag can just use almighty. rather it's that you lose out on exploiting weak/crit and thus the press turn and potential smirk.
also MC can't learn passives
>no element coverage in early game
>gets outperformed hard by phys/dex in lategame
>phys in smt 4
lmfao
really baffling that they never patched it
SMTIV would literally be the best SMT game if the combat had all the improvements from IV/A. So close to being perfect and yet so far.
What was even achieved in the true ending? The narrator implies the new world won't last forever, so what was the point of Lucifer's final boss battle?
It may not last forever but it also might. You are choosing to have faith in humanity not to make the same mistakes again and summon demons into their world.
V's endings are so fricking empty
4 was so bad it permanently killed my interest in future entries. Nothing I've heard about the games after it have changed my view.
I'm curious, what's your favorite SMT? I can definitely understand feeling that way after 4, it's my least favorite too, though I did enjoy it.
I just don't understand why they had to make him look so gay.
Seriously what's with modern Japan and their obsession with wimpy feminine looking MCs? It plagues like 95% of shonen nowadays.
I thought Nahobino looked a little gay too at first. When I saw him in motion in game, I thought he ended up looking really cool. SMT1 Hero and Aleph are still the coolest designs imo.
>coolest mcs only get shown in art outside of the game
it hurts
It does. I'd of loved to see all the cool armors they get in game too, all you ever get is a name. Seeing illustrations of things like the Jesus Armor just makes me wanna see them in game even more.
>I just don't understand why they had to make him look so gay.
Because they have good taste and it's a good design.
Why?
My penis says so.
Definitely a you problem
have a nice day, homosexual
Very uncalled for
blame fujoshi
Most of the tropes that inspire bino's design are pretty old actually.
I've always loved the long haired swordsman with a "hair cape" since playing Megaman X4 growing up. Nahobino my favorite protag.
Because their chief father god is a fricking femboy. Men with feminine traits have divine qualities. I am not making this shit up.
What happens if you touch the clit?
You'd get conniptions.
I got bored and quit during the snow world. everything looked the same with different paint. also exploration in this game fricking sucked. traveling from point A to B was always needlessly convoluted
You quit in Ueno? You were right at the end man. I don't blame you for getting bored by that point but you weren't far from finishing the game.
yeah I think it was the 4th world or something, definitely far in. maybe i’ll pick it back up sometime
Unleash your inner LawChad.
I always thought Law was boring until V.
Law has the coolest demons but never has the best rep besides SMT 1
He WON.
Law gays aren't supposed to win. They aren't supposed to get the girl and turn into a chad. That's not what law gays do! I'm gonna go insane!!!
DAS
RITE
What is the Christian mythos's opinion on SMT series?
smt is still too niche to piss off anyone but china with it's religious use
>China
Aren't Chinese deities in this game rather alright?
In V, yes.
IV was the bigger offender.
You're not allowed to show skeletons in China and there's tons of demons like that in SMT.
>You're not allowed to show skeletons in China
what the frick
why
Makes people remember the times the government turned like a third of the country into skelertins which makes the public not like the government as much
what happens if you get an xray
You can if you thread the needle right. Skeletons on their own are technically allowed but they're really close to things that are banned. Things like dishonoring ancestry and promoting superstitions will get the skeletons banned but there are games made in China that have depictions of skeletons in them.
Something about being disrespectful to the dead or some shit. Here's the Hell Biker from the Chinese Persona mobile game. They just made him wear a Doctor Doom mask.
Ancestor worship is moronic.
Mermaid, Alice and Idun for me.
Game is too difficult for me.
My brain is dying.
use ailments
I liked Apocalypse the best because I could kill everyone and become god and get sick yellow eyes
nocturne had piss easy dungeons except for tower of kagutsuchi with those dumb teleporters, god I hate teleporters so much in smt
I've beaten it 3 times, think I'll go for the fourth so I can have all four game clear marks. I've already seen destroy when I did true so it'll just be a relaxing jaunt.
>Still no ports in sight
Buh muh Nvidia leakerino!
okay so you wake up one morning (afternoon), decide to check your email and you get this weird one from some dude named Stephen.
Attached to it is the demon summoning program and some warning about the world being about to go to shit.
Under this dire circumstances, which demon would you try to frick first? Pic unrelated, unless it's a very hot day.
Flat bdsm Angel, they're weak enough for me to at least get it in
For me, it's Battle -humans, demons and...-
When they add an ending where I can make a world in which I live in a big frick off mansion with mermaid, pixie, lilim, angel, nekomata, idun, leanan sidhe, hua po, succubus, atropos, kushinada-hime and Masakado THEN I'll play
That's just how Nahobino retires after Destroy.
>masakado
What is he doing in your mansion?
Hanging out. He's a pretty cool guy actually.
>Hanging out
Hopefully not on a pike this time
Nah it's too nice a mansion for that
How did nahobinos reproduce before god's massive spergout?
But I already played it 7 times including a little girls only run
>including a little girls only run
Chad
actually don't because a complete version will come out soon and people will forget about this version
>""""""""""soon""""""""""
2 more weeks
>their big announcement this year was ANOTHER ost collection re-release, but worse than every previous version in every possible way
the frick is these homies doing
the anniversary was thrown together last minute with no planning, but they did indicate it's not over and they are working on games, but whether or not we'll see them soon isn't clear
Why would I play the most boring game in the series again? You can shove your Ubisoft tier "JRPG" and your mimans up your ass.
IV:A is way more fun
Hard disagree, V is all the best parts of IVA with none of the baggage. V is the most fun game to pick up and play.
more demons = better game
Better quality demons with more soul put into them>more demons.
It's literally the main reason why IVA is so much better than IV.
The main reason is The Dagda is cool as hell dude
sure, but more demons on its own with anything else comparative gameplay-wise means the game is better
otherwise, I thing magatsuhi is a better system than smirk, but how few demons are in it makes it so plain and unexciting. and it's not even few, it has the most demons in any 3d megaten, they just feel less because you don't really go out of your way to discover them or go on fusion sprees to get to one few combinations get you. once you recruit a few demons you see everything the game has to offer. it didn't feel like this in nocturne, possibly because some demons were evolution only.
So many demons in V are unlocked by doing sidequests, it feels like you're constantly unlocking new demons and it plays into the game wanting you to explore every corner of the map. On the subject of demon evolution, the mechanic exist, well predominantly to ape Pokemon, but it exists so you have a reason to hold on to crappy demons you normally wouldn't use in the hopes they become better ones. For V you have such a strong abillity to take weak demons and make them viable the mechanic really wouldn't work, and I much prefer the new model.
there are also many mini boss quests that you could have them in your team already if you get to them later than the game intends you to. plus they are now underleveled and pushovers. I was actually nervous about getting to these quest fights overleveled because the way they balance your damage output to your comparative level difference could make them completely pointless.
On the flip side, quest recruit demons are almost always rockstars when they join you're party because they're normally much higher level. They kind of took the place of evolution demons from Nocturne.
true. I love having demons higher level then myself in my party, but I wouldn't say it makes up for evolution.
Main issue with 4A is how many demon are pretty much fusion fodder.
I often fused demons only to immediatly fuse, and forget, them away.
I don't have any issues with demons being fusion fodders. one because most demons arent definitive fusion fodders, on another play through someone might end up using them, and two because being fusion fodder is itself a utility
sure I like the way V made demons pass experience so fusion a demon you've been using for long would be much more meaningful, but this kinda pushes over specializing your demons which I don't think is good. learning to utilize demons who are good enough on the run in an unexpected encounter or when a boss obliterated half your team in the previous turn is half the fun of these games for me.
I personally was using my stock demons all the time in V. Since every demon can swap, and swap is only a half Press Turn its almost FFX levels of useful to just switch your party instead of making jack of all trades and swap in when demons die instead of reviving.
Not really that more fun but the characters are way better which goes a long way
Totally banana homeslice. I was crying when Hallelujah revealed he was half demon and unlocked his true power to save his aniki it was so moving.
It was at least more than nothing at all
PC release when.
>didn't like the game
>plot didn't pull me in like a normal smt
>even mroe bear bones than nocturne but without the awesome atmosphere
>waiting for a the re-release to fix this and come out on pc
I love the atmosphere in V, feels really comfy just running through Tokyo exploring the ruins while demons dick around and lie in wait. The game feels simultaneously menacing and warm and inviting, it makes you feel like even though the world's gone to shit Beano loves being there. I don't think the re-release will go out of their way to change that, if anything they'll probably just more demons, a new area or two and give team chaos a few more cutscenes.
>PLAY SMTV
Can't. I'm busy playing SMT4 right now. About to go side with Jonathan for now but ultimately plan to go Neutral as I always do
