Never going to happen. Atlus doesn't want to get in hot water for allowing the player to dress up underaged girls and have them in suggestive situations. It's why SMT V censored Tao's panties and then outright removed them in VV.

100% this. Megami Tensei began on Nintendo and the franchise had it's best run (next to PS2) on the 3DS.
Soccer Guy is a total faggot for snubbing SMT in Smash by including Joker (A PLAYSTATION CHARACTER) from Persona, a game for incels, over an TRUE Shin Megami Tensei rep. Aside from music (and even that's lacking), Joker didn't even represent the entire Persona series, just normie ass P5.
Flynn was my most wanted character in Tr4sh, and Demifiend or Nahobino for Ultimate. In an ideal timeline, any of those characters would've been considered and included before an incel Persona character and it wouldn't be faggot Joker it would be based characters like Yu Narukami or Aigis

There's just that many more PC gamers in the past 5 years

Here's another:
SH2 was marketed a lot more in the west while Raidou got jack shit.
Remember how SH2 rented a venue in the west and no one showed up?
The marketing cost alone means that Raidou remaster is probably more profitable than SH2.

The Raidou remaster was advertised pretty well in the west and even got expensive figures, which likely backfired hard for Atlus since they expected the game to be a massive hit. That certainly does not make it more profitable than SH2.

I really don't like how raidou himself now is just a mage capable of using super powerful magic spells and abilities all on his own.
In the original titles he had to make use of special equipment like the elemental bullets, or use combo attacks empowered by his demons. They've pretty heavily changed the vibes of the character now imo.

Your favorite edgy work was always a midget compared to the not-edgy shit from the same period of time.
It's the same shit than console war:
Aiming for kids/family friendly stuff like Nintendo does is always going to sell more than edgy shit (unless your name is GTA but that's an exception).

The actual quality of the game itself has quite literally no relation to the idea that atlus choosing to not put devil summoner in its title implies a lack of trust in the market power of the devil summoner IP. This was a decision made BEFORE the release of the game and they had seen the reception to it. The game did not release with devil summoner on the box, and then have atlus scrub it off post release because people didn't like it.

While I am not crazy for this inclusion, Raidou using magic makes perfect sense because the Kuzunoha Clan practices Onmyodo and Onmyouji are capable of controlling the elements which implies more than just using magic bullets.

Interestingly I think sega may be the ones responsible for the lack of devil summoner in the SH2 title.
It was a while ago now, 2021, so you may not remember. But sega (not atlus) had an internal presentation where they were discussing which dormant IP's they wanted to revive, and in that list Soul Hackers was listed. Not devil summoner. Soul Hackers specifically. It was even listed separately from megami tensei.

Am I totally crazy or is the new Neutral ending in SJR really bad? Like yeah, all the new endings are dumb for being watered down, but I've actually seen some praise for the Neutral ending despite it seeming particularly bad. For me, the best part of the original Neutral ending was the uncertainty. You were shown how shitty humanity is and you had the balls to choose it anyway and give it another chance. Will they learn their lesson? Can they turn things around? You don't get an answer; it's effective in this way. The new Neutral ending basically definitively says "Nope they will keep fucking up lolol." Horrible.

He can already do combined attacks with demons in the original and King Abaddon. Giving him his own magic is completely unnecessary and takes away from his role as a Devil Summoner. Even Naomi has to use contracted demons to cast magic for fuck's sake.

and giten is partially done on pc98 and it's apparently fully playable but you have to do something weird to play through it fully and use glitches or something.
it's mostly done on windows iirc but it's really buggy so i don't recommend it.
pc 98 looks better anyway and you can use saveststes which i recommend because there's a lot of bs at the beginning.
i think the spanish translation for debisama is done or almost done.

I'm currently playing Raidou Remastered but also I am rather busy these days so I don't progress with the game as much + I'm taking my sweet time with it. I'm doing a stupidly high amount of fusions, to the point I haven't recruited a demon in a bit. Honestly I missed sinking like a hour per session fusing new demons, even if the game has added all these items that give skills and such without inheriting them. Only got one fusion perk so far, this Archangel came out with like 4 more ST or something. No fusion errors so far yet but I imagine those were more common in Raidou 2 due to the game's focus on Luck (I also have not gone to Goumaden at Full Moon yet).

Yesterday I finished Chapter 2 and 3 and io and behold, some bored anon on /smtg/ flat out lied that you find out about Raidou XL in Remastered's Chapter 2. I also saw that all the "incriminating" screencaps come from some xitter posters since I browsed it a bit through a frontend to look for fanart. So whoever is constantly bitching and shitting on the game isn't even looking at playthrough videos on his own, he's stealing from xitter, kek.
I'm still curious to see the shitty new changes for myself. I find that most changes so far have been good except for the handholding, but what do you know, Atlus thinks its fans have no reading comprehension whatsoever.

raidou remaster came out extremely mixed in quality along with it bombing. It's also raidou 1 but with a less interesting/whole aesthetic. It's purely for newfags to buy which is what most of the new ports/remasters Atlus has done has been focused on. modern atlus would rather spend lots of money to add dumb ass shit to rerelease a game at 50 dollars + DLC + tax. But Raidou remaster's content has half of it being pointless or actively undermining the player. They added a DLC to explain the plot and over explained the plot. the game is full of dumb choices that makes the game feel incomplete/rushed.

Because a game only ever gets sales the first two weeks of its time on the market, huh? Besides, those are also only physical sales, we have no idea how many digital copies have sold. I'd wait at least until the end of year holidays or the first major sale on the game to see if it really was a flop. We all know and have been saying that Raidou was never going to be a huge hit when its a high-effort remaster of a niche game in an already fairly niche franchise, especially with the weirdly minimal amount of advertising it got in the West. It's really not doing as bad as some would think.

>>529234801
>>529234556
Probably the reason the game isn't referred to as a remake but just a remaster, they clearly just took some assets from the PS2 originals and gussied up what they really needed to. It would have been nice to see some of the especially crusty demons get a few more polygons at the least, but I guess they had their hands full with everything else and couldn't get to it. I can't be too mad when its clear a majority of the budget and manpower was all put into gameplay and environments.

It's like Raidou 2's but refined. Raidou now can now use cooldown skills that range from elemental magic to get enemies into critical state but also he can use some buffs or heals; however they aren't as OP as it sounds, they're there moreso to make things faster and the fast pace is what's been the most fun thing about this battle system so far, it's addicting to fill up the MAG bar after your demons used it all up to cast Critical spells. The gun isn't very good or satisfying to use but I got it a bit more now, basically it's there to stun teleporting/flying enemies in place but it's too situational. Also, you lock onto enemies which I do not remember from neither Raidou 1 or 2 at all... it's not bad but it took some time to get used to. Same for the jump button (I don't use it much).
Fusion Autism is even better than Raidou 2's now that you can choose which skills to inherit... I already sank hours into fucking around with it because I plan to make perfect versions of my favorites through fusion. It's MILES above Raidou 1's sorry excuse of fusion.

You can see the glimpses of the PS2 game underneath but it got the polishes in places it needed the most imho
Raidou is now much more sword than he is gun, also has access to some magic, nothing too crazy but elemental 'signs' and a megidolaon if you craft the right sword for it. STR moves still seem stronger, though.

Probably make it an actual six-shooter and make it so you can buy or make magic bullets, make it strong but an actual commitment to reload (so you only reload if your demons got aggro, for example) or/and a money sink (the bullets) to even off it's high instant damage compared to sword slashes.
The mag drain system is simple, light attacks generate MAG, heavy attacks drain MAG but deal more damage. Your demons use your MAG for their abilities, so it's always good to have a lot of it or demons just won't do jack shit but basic attack.
During a weakness stun you get 2x mag from light attacks, too. Not sure if heavy attacks do more when that happens because who reads tutorials lol

Start with SMT 1 PS1 and then play whatever you want. SMT 1 shows you shows you the essentials on what makes SMT in terms of writing, alignments, and soundtrack.
SMT 3 & VV are awful starting points since they're intentional black sheep entries and nearly nothing else plays like them.

I usually don't play Japanese games with the English dub, but I wanted to know what it was like since I had seen the Japanese dub already. I think the performances are pretty solid, Narumi and Victor are two that stand out as pretty good so far. Everyone else is just okay, with no standout bad performances. The accents on Elfman (who is German I guess) and Rasputin aren't the worst I've heard, either.

I hate this post because not only it's fucking retarded, but comes to show how the SMT fanbase is currently filled with Gen Z and nusona fans that disrespects SMT 1 + SMT 2 by treating them like they're some unplayable mess that should not be touched akin to P1 & P2. You should not be playing SMT if you can't handle dungeon crawling or old RPG elements. You should be playing something else like nusona or other modern jrpgs than coming into this community and shitting up the place with your garbage takes.

FE has a similar situation as to SMT with how the art style and designs pander to make things more cute and or want people to drool over. Everyone has to have their own back story or look as unique as possible instead of accidentally having Glup Shitto and his brother Slup Ghitto into god killers because you got lucky with their growths.

A good way to experience SJR is to have your first playthrough be SJ (DS) and then have subsequent playthroughs on SJR (3DS). Lets you appreciate the changes in SJR more even with the adage it wasn't play-tested as well as SJ itself was (pretty much the new dungeon becomes your new main story as the original SJ part of the game can't keep up with the new mechanics/progress). I did it and don't regret my playthroughs.

I read the manga, tried to listen to the Drama CD and gave up because I don't speak Japanese hardly at all, and then read a machine translation of the novel. I've been playing the remaster but I've had my hands full with real life obligations and I also draw a lot of fanart.

Even with handholding, it's still more fun to play than Raidou 1. Nobody likes handholding but Atlus is convinced its fans are retarded... which I am inclined to agree when lack of reading comprehension is so rampant among SMT poseurs.
>ridiculously bloated hit points on enemies,
That's how I know you did not play the game and are just repeating what you read because this stops being a problem very early on.

Frankly, this is both the result of them going international (and not having given the west the chance to purchase SMT1 on a normal console) and the result of Yamai's multiverse bullshit... which was still present in Raidou 1 and especially 2, because isn't the masks thing a reference to SMTVV's own setting? I could be wrong because I have not played VV yet.

Already played it. The HP bloat is very much a problem because Atlus had the bright idea of making even the mob demons have ridiculously high health. It's boring as hell.

I didn't compare it to Raidou 2 because the remake would compare even more terribly with it. Passive skills such as Devotion and the exp booster skill are pointless because now demons that you're not using still get exp AND loyalty even though it makes zero sense. Phys skills on demons in general have far less punch in this game because Raidou can pretty much handle anything now. Elemental signs are completely inferior to elemental bullets and demon-enchanted bullets in 2, even if it doesn't make the magic demons obsolete. And even if magic demons are still useful in this game, it's ridiculous how early you can get the Magnetize skill (making it so that choosing the right demons for the right job matters even less), as if the game doesn't already shower you with Chakra chips and drops from the beginning. Buffs are also completely unneeded in this game.

They explicitly referenced shit like "overcrowded hospitals" so I highly doubt that it's just an SMTV thing. And "multiverse" stuff isn't necessarily a bad thing, but if they wanted to add references to SMTV, then they shouldn't have done it at the expense of references to the older games.

I would say Devotion was always pointless because demons gain loyalty extremely quickly in every game. The EXP gain skill is more or less the same as it was before, I never used it though.
>Phys skills on demons in general have far less punch in this game because Raidou can pretty much handle anything now.
No, I disagree. Though magic was and is always good to have around on your demons, having just Raidou on the field actually makes battles too slow because you can't get enemies in critical state as easily as when you have two other guys around. Having the better gun from 2 would probably help Raidou fight alone by a lot (frankly the new gun sucks).
>Buffs are completely uneeded
Maybe that's why your battle lasts so long, because I do not feel the HP bloat at all after the first chapter or so and I always have some guys that can use buffs. But even before you unlock fusion most battles go by very fast after Dark Tsukudo-Cho.
I do think Chakra items have become even more useless than they were already in Raidou 2. Regular MP items just make no sense when MP is so readily available from just playing. At least in Raidou 2 I had some fringe situations early on where I needed one. Still, I prefer the MAG gain this way, I think it makes the battles flow better.
>And "multiverse" stuff isn't necessarily a bad thing, but if they wanted to add references to SMTV, then they shouldn't have done it at the expense of references to the older games.
Frankly I agree but I see this as a problem with Yamai's vision for the series. Personally the way I liked Raidou was when it only dealt with two timelines, SMT1-2 and DebiSama. Raidou 2 though more or less implied Raidou can also go to Nocturneland and aid Lucifer in his desire to destroy the Great Will so I can see why they are shoving in SMTVV references. I don't like that they removed some of the SMT1-2 references for this but to me it's a problem that goes deeper than which game they decide to reference.

>having just Raidou on the field actually makes battles too slow
I phrased it badly perhaps, but what I'm talking about is how useless the Phys oriented demons are now compared to the magic ones. Even if you can't hit weaknesses there's no reason to summon them when Raidou can hit harder regardless of build, because now there are a ton of incenses lying around and Scavenger activates (way more frequently than in the past) even when your demon is in the tube.
>Maybe that's why your battle lasts so long, because I do not feel the HP bloat at all after the first chapter or so and I always have some guys that can use buffs.
I'm more annoyed by how even mob demons require a lot of hits to kill even if you were to hit their weaknesses and slash away. There is no reason at all why mob demons need such bloated HP. Used to be that with normal enemy demons you just need to be careful with their attacks and they die fairly quickly if you hit their weaknesses. Now they're just pushovers with high HP.
>I don't like that they removed some of the SMT1-2 references for this but to me it's a problem that goes deeper than which game they decide to reference.
I personally think it's a pretty terrible sign that they decided to remove references to the original games in the remake of the game that was most closely related to them outside of if... (and NINE maybe, but I never played it). I have no problem with them adding references to newer games, but if they're so allergic to references to games that the old team developed, then maybe they should've made a new game instead of making pointless rewrites.
I like some of the additions they made to this game, but I honestly think that they ended up breaking way too many things in the process.

Frenzy/Mighty Hit is the best thing a demon can do after hitting a weakness, they hit like a truck even when not hitting a weak point AND they can stun most bosses, don't underestimate them.

Not true in the late game, a 40 str, 40 magic Raidou cannot outdamage with a single skill a breath skill from a demon with 40 magic.

Raidou remastered improved a lot but also messed up quite a few things as you might've noticed by recent discussion. In my eyes it's not a definitive version of the game despite being a breeze to play through.
My main complaint is precisely that, the game is too easy. The enemies feel spongy, sure, but all it took for me to beat the game was dumping all of my stat points into STR and MAG and fusing a good Lilim early on.
She got to the endgame and having a second demon in battle was mostly optional. That's cool but all I had to do was give her MAG incenses, never I needed to tweak her build or put effort into upgrading her.
It felt like I never needed to plan or account for anything too, the game gives you so much "quality of life tweaks and improvements" but you don't have to pay them any proper attention. They really want to dumb down the experience and let people enjoy SMT/Devil Summoner the same way people enjoy Persona 5. Some boss battles will be a bit more difficult than the rest of the game, but you don't play the game cleverly solving problems like you would in Strange Journey or other games of the series.
Anyway, I will replay this game in the hardest difficulty in the future to see if then I'll actually be challenged and feel the need make better use of game mechanics to solve problems.
I still hope Raidou 2 Remastered releases and it's less brainded that this one.

There's nothing new under the sun, and even if I'm not a huge fan of the end product of SMT4 in totality, I think Kaneko's plot ideas were cool and drew from a wide enough variety of inspirations to be worthwhile.

>>529412787
Actually while I was reading up around the topic and doing the usual "comparative mythology hypotext hunt" that I love extending to art of all kinds, I was reading about the Quran's "Hamlet in Ruins" parable. One tradition states that it's a story about how Ezra/Uzair, on seeing the Babylonian destruction of Jerusalem and being driven to despair, suggested that even God could not restore such a place, and God struck him dead and resurrected him 70 years later in the restored Jerusalem to teach him a lesson, where no one recognized him until he cured the sight of an old blind woman who had known him. Well, that's kind of what happens to Hero and Heroine in SMT1, isn't it? In a twisted sort of way. I like to think about whether the well-read people at Atlus were aware of these kinds of things when making the games.

The DSP just automates a traditional summoning ritual, the kind you'd see in traditional literature with a pentagram circle etc.

Like >>529436885 is suggesting, as soon as humans figured out how to "play back" stored media, that ritual process could get easier. You need to chant something to summon a demon, like we see Raidou do? Why not just record that and play it back? Music rather than just words adds other layers of complexity, perhaps certain arrangements of notes and emotions can substitute for some of the other steps in a ritual? And of course culturally there's plenty of examples of "cursed tapes" that expose you to an evil spirit when played. Now what if you increase the playback speed to summon spirits faster? Can you get away with that? If you speed it up to unlistenable speeds, would the ritual still succeed?

We don't really know how Raidou's tubes work (I think they're like Solomon-era confinement, like shikigami paper dolls or genie in a lamp), but if there was an interim period of technical breakthroughs in devil summoning, I think that's what it would look like. Even just portable transistor radios could be a weapon if pre-prepared recordings could be broadcast, but the breakthrough for "back-alley summoners" would have been the advent of small handheld portable tape recorder and playback devices in the late 70s. You can imagine the Kuzunohas suddenly in a lot of trouble as any asshole with a Walkman can quickly conjure a pre-prepared demon, no extensive training required.

Huh, I guess I can enable money mitamas and farm early on. I mean my initial idea was to import demons purely to get essences for Nahobino Metatron for base resistances and Fallen Abdiel for Repel Phys and something else I haven't decided yet, not to steamroll through the whole game using nearly-invincible max level demons. So maybe it will still work.

Yoko's rant was clearly in there because the MC also bitches about cars in the same spot in the original and it was supposed to be more so a complaint about modern conveniences circling back to how Snakes hate modernity and want the caveman times again.

The character? No. His fans being mostly women, many amongst them fujos who ship him with Narumi? Not really his fault, he still has a lot of yume fans too. The fact that several men in 2 wanted to fuck him because he's that hot? Pretty gay but he never seems to reciprotate because he's too autistic about doing his job. However, the player can have him sneak into the women's section of the bathhouse to look at the naked chicks to adjust his alignment towards Chaos and also agree to an offer to have sex with an NPC woman that turns him down anyways because he's too young. Also getting flustered in Soul Hackers when Raido wants to ogle at Heisei era women seems pretty straight to me. V and VV are super fucking gay no matter how straight you try to make Beano act.

IV is the extreme opposite with everything dying too fast.

Chainsaw Man to me feels like DLC for Tokyo Ghoul (the authors have been friends for 15+ years anyway), but it's certainly a bit in line with the kind of stuff you'd see in Retro SMT.

Please, I was here for the DeSu2 shitstorm.

I would honestly rather have that than V.

IV is just SMT1/2, ie autobattle forever after an initial few hours of friction.

I did think IV was a good game until I got to Tokyo. IVA balance is better but the game is obviously worse in a lot of ways too.

Are estrogen pills SMT-coded?

Yes. Its literally a plotpoint in SMTIV that people are taking pills to change their form. The first guy you see take red pills even turns from a guy into a female demon, dullahan.
Don't shoot the messenger btw, I don't agree with that stuff, I'm just pointing out the facts....

I always love that god gets so sick of your shit he just leaves. Doesn’t die or even be defeated-he is sickened at the world and decides to go out to get milk for eternity
