Just finished the first Vision Quest.
Wow, combat is LIGHTNING quick now, almost too fast.
Story stuff,
I'm surprised there's so much VA, even NPCs in the dungeons. Haven't been this ecstatic at playing a localized game since Sakura Wars V.

Boy does it suck to be Urabe. 
They nailed Finnegan though.

Damn...Anyone in Singapore awaiting this game?
Just got an email from the shop i pre-ordered from, saying that the local authorities (MDA) are still not allowing the release of this game. So stupid... I hope no silly bans
The last time it took them like more than a week to approve Demon' Souls. Lots of jokes about how the testers kept dying and are unable to finish the game.
EDIT: It is kind of weird because the chat support on the store's side says they're letting those who pre-ordered know whether they can get the game first. Probably to those who paid in full already (I didn/t). Hope they ahve enought stock but they probably don't. Oh well.

What time is this due out on the e-shop? I got a notification on my 3ds that items in my wish list are now available, but when I pull up the wish list and open Soul Hacker's store page it just says "coming soon"
Since its the same for every 3rd party releases, it wont be up for another 9 hours.
Looking forward to summoning things with my Dualshock 4
I would be okay with always-online if it allowed demon summoning.

So antsy to play this. Hope it gets here tonight like amazon said it would.
I'll be streaming the game sometime tonight (though if work is any indication, won't be until late tonight CDT) at my Twitch channel. Should be neats.

No dungeon in SH is even remotely as bad as Eridanus in SJ.
Is it normal for the auto-map in Algon NS to be completely filled out? I'm hoping it's just the first dungeon.
And yes I have the automap hack off(a really weird hack to include).

Well that's good to know at least.
Still, I dunno. I would have considered it if SMT 4 wasn't coming out this summer, don't want to burn myself out on those.
So outside of playing the beginning of Persona 2, and all of 3 and 4, I have no experience with these games. I have been looking at playing the other SMT games for a while now though, but I just decided to wait for Soul Hackers so that I didn't get burnt out.
Does anybody know about how long this game is going to be? I heard not as long as the Persona games, which should be good since I find that those games are a bit too long.
So excited, store opens in 40 minutes here. Now I just have to get through this last exam :l

Aaaa shit encounters my 1st level up screen. Is it better to go magic or strength for this game, anybody here can give me pointers? Can't decide.
Magic is useless for the MC, increase vitality, agility and strength. Wisdom too if you want to have a better magic resistance.
Magic, agility and wisdom (to increase the magic hit % and bad status effects) for Nemissa.

Do the people you StreetPass have to have the game as well, or just any StreetPasses will trigger unlockables from the shop(s) in your game?

Hooo, so strength focused then for the MC. I almost decided to go Magic like in DS Overclocked. Aaah this means my MC will be like in Nocturne all Punch Punch Smash Smash, very good =)
Thanks for the pointers man.
I think they have to have it as well.

The way I read it was that they would also have to have a copy of the game, but that you could use the PlayCoins gained by walking with the system to also buy the same kind of demons. Don't really know for sure though. Hopefully someone with the game can enlighten us soon.

Supposed to come in today, but whether it'll be this morning or after work I do not know. Checked the mailbox as soon as I woke up to no avail...

3 hours in, and game isn't clicking yet. Story is interesting, graphics are fine, but some of these mechanics are souring the experience.
For example: when fusing, why can't I see what skills, spells, and stats the new demon will inherit?

Man, I don't think I'll ever get used to seeing Parish on IGN.
uh, tried linking to that hardcore gaming 101 page, but is that a banned sight?
Anyway, check out hardcoregaming 101 for some details. The short of it is that some relate to each other, the long of it is, well, long. And explaining the short, sort of leads to spoilers.
They're mainly standalone outside of Digital Devil Saga 1 and 2 and Persona 2 Innocent Sin and Eternal Punishment. Some have minor references to each other, but you can normally jump right in to any of them. Starting with either DSO or SH is perfectly fine. Just choose the more interesting game to you.
Also, I barely have Play Coins because I don't take my 3DS anywhere. Shit. Now what? Shake it like a maniac?
Demons can only inherit skills at the Goumaden. Unfortunately, it won't highlight which skills are being passed on, but if you use the feature that lets you search through fusion results per demon, you'll be able to easily see which combinations yield which inherited skills. The only skills that can be inherited are magic-based, so no physical skills. Stats will not increase with fusion unless you're using Mitama, and you're nowhere near there yet.

Ha ha yeah I suppose that's one solution. I have had 300 coins for months now, simply because I rarely play the Find Mii or Puzzle stuff anymore. Hopefully the cost for the Demon stuff is fairly reasonable.

Just got my copy. It started pouring when I went out, and stopped once I got home. Figures.
I should have taken today off of work.
