Persona grew too big and they got a taste of that big money so now they're more adverse to making smaller titles more often. You have developers like Atlus and Gust that once weren't as big in the previous era but once devs like these get a big success, it fucks with them. Devs like these function better when they're constantly on the verge of bankruptcy. Atlus was one of the bigger niche devs but the success of P5 in particular really screwed with them.

They got too popular. Atlus games were always somehow niche in the west. With P5 they exploded.
Same thing happened to Gust, the games gained in production value but Atelier lost its charm and appeal once it went mainstream. All the characters are hags too now because cute girls are icky to the normalfag.

Ryza was super popular and put the series under the spotlight. It might not be Persona 5 tier mainstream but compared to where the series used to be, the Ryza series sold over 2M copies, in the past Atelier games barely managed to break 100k in the past. And that newfound popularity led to dumbing down and appealing to "the global market".

You mean the game that got to 2 million faster than any other game Atlus ever put out including P5? And greatly outperformed the last Persona release in the same window? Which was not 8 months btw, but slightly less than 6
P5 would probably have that achievement if it was multiplatform at release but the only people looking at Metaphor and seeing something inherently beneath the other games are butthurt SEAs and FF/E33 braindead shills

Transitioning to the HD era stifled creativity and they became very risk-averse. Couple that with P5's success and now everything has to either literally be P5 or be P5-inspired to a fault. Their games are likely selling better than ever before but no one remembers them. P5T and strikers? forgotten. Soul hackers 2? forgotten. Metaphor? Sold and reviewed very well but was memoryholed within a couple months barring the occasional schizo thread where the resident pro and anti FF retards hash it out.

That’s because they showed basically nothing in the teaser. The P4 remake was what everyone was most looking forward to in the Xbox direct from what I noticed in the sticky thread. It was also the most viewed video out of everything else they showed.

They got a bench. 2 quests clarify they are in love with each other. The MC tries to inch closer to Aogami in the bench through the course of the game. And even without the bench, one of those quests has been around since the original game on switch. You didn't pay attention to shit.

Your tastes are just too dogshit, you're a braindead doomer shit poster that thinks 95% of games are bad in general or you can't appreciate anything that isn't from your youth.

Metaphor and SMT VV were both last year and both good games.

Yeah, and all bench scenes are like:
>"Well, this story story thing happened."
>"I'll keep supporting you, shonen."
If this looks gay to you, then it's (You) problem.

Persona 2 is my favorite persona game and I'm tired of being drowned out by retards shouting "persona started at 3" whenever I bring it up. P4 is my favorite of the NuSona

>2 quests clarify they are in love with each other.
Sure, a character declaring that he wants to protect another character forever 40% of the time in side dialog isn't gay unless the game makes it explicit or clarifies the intention. The game does that. You are upset you played a gay ass game, that's the only reason you could be bitching about this or even care.

I've played worse desu. I enjoyed SMT If.... I'm not going to say persona 2 has good gameplay, it frankly doesn't, but its still worth a playthrough for the story and demon conversations, I liked that system.

So spending the whole game running around doing little unrelated and inconsequential side quests, with next to no main plot, is good game design?

What's gay about protecting your comrade in arms in a dangerous situation? Stop being obsessed with turning everything gay.

The entire talent that actually made Atlus good in the 90s and early 00s being gone for starters
But it all began as soon as Okada left

I would rather replay SMT If... 10 times more than I want to replay Persona 2. If... has much better gameplay and I'm saying that unironically, it's just the map design is shit but at least it's not boring (outside of Sloth but Persona 2 is basically sloth 24/7)

Strikers is such an unfortunate game. Atlus did it dirty by making Royal storyline basically "Strikers 2.0".

VV is leagues better. Much better skill balance, demon balance and infinitely better designed bosses.

I know people normally hate musous, but Strikers was the only musou I legit liked from start to end. I never could stomach Dynasty Warriors or the Legend games from Switch and I never played Persona 5 before.

VV instead of being a give everyone the same active skills game like IV is a give everyone the same passive skills game
Then there's the unique ability shit which is just a matter of who generates press turns the best
I'm not thrilled with either version of V

What you're describing is pretty much a post-game stuff.
But during the first playthrough those new innate passives and low-ish level unique abilities are great. And they massively improve the combat compared to original V.

they used to have a pretty diverse library of games but once persona 5 caught on they spend the next 10 years trying to replicate its success

No way, they had 0 impact on the game at all until you got to those endgame ones, and until endgame the base magatsuhi skill is still the only one you'll ever use until you're ready to evade or ikuyumi spam everything to death
Metatron is literally the first demon I identified as having their unique ability contribute to a boss at all (and that boss? Masakado)
Arioch is still the same abysmal shitfest he was in the original and everything before that is still either steamroll material or painful for no reason like the ubisoft towers before the Surt fight, and the new route just generally has better bosses from a design perspective. The combat changes really did not do much besides reinvent the endgame into something that borderline feels like a gacha

Nah he doesn't lead Yoko or Tao anywhere. Anything outside of demon negotiation, he's after Aogami's dick or crying over it. In the haunt demon women flirt with him and then bitch he doesn't return their affection. When male demons like Zeus ask for sex, he's disgusted. In demon negotiation though he's a fucking whore which explains why demon women get upset when he stops caring after they're recruited. He tries to screw female and male demons.
