I can also go NG+ from classic to Story Mode, right?

Yesssssssss
I'm interested in how they've redesigned the dungeons. I really like some of the things they did in EOU:1.
Beautiful OT, good job.
Also, beautiful game. Went through the demo 100%, now just waiting for my preorder copy to get here from amazon.
I love this EO because of how heavy the focus is on my favourite tree of all time (Yggdrasil)

at least most is free if you get the game early, but yeah it sucks.
I need to go to bed, but I'll fix it tomorrow.

Mine is still EO1. The first, third, fifth, and final stratum give me chills.
Taking a rest. They'll return for V.

Excited to start playing this tomorrow. I recently beat my first EO game, EOU1, and I'm hoping this'll be just as good.

I can't wait to get this. I've been enjoying the demo, it already looks to be far better than EOU, and a big step up from the original EOII.
I think I'll be going with story mode this time, if only because the Fafnir Knight looks like a far more interesting class than the beast, that and I need the Fafnir Knight's force powerup theme music.

EVERYONE needs to get this. It isn't just the best Etrian game (also it is multiple times better than PQ in every gameplay aspect) but it is one of the best RPGs on 3DS. I love this game so much.
Great OT!

Doubt it. 3rd party E-Shop titles usually go up about 8 hours from now (give or take an hour). Will check though.
ETA Nope. The usually time is midday EST for 3rd party titles (about 8.5 hours from the time of this edit). Its usually only first party titles that get midnight releases.
The Etrian Odyssey IV demo didn't click with me, as I don't usually like dungeon crawlers. I really want to try this one, so I guess I'll check the demo. Is it available on EU eShop yet?
Since this game has auto-mapping, I guess I can give it a try. Mapping a game by myself is something so tedious I don't want to bother trying.

Actually I did read the OP. I must have glazed over that answer in the FAQ. It was a lot to read, and I'm distracted often.
Sorry to upset you so much.
Just got back from work, game is not up yet. Guess I'll just have to wait for an hour or so for the download. I'm not early tomorrow anyway.
Also, people might find this weird and I already said this back in the review thread, I guess I'm one of the very few people who is not bothered at all by the DLC even if they are paid. And yes, that includes the EXP/Money DLCs, I always buy them if possible.

Feel like EXP/Money DLC makes it much easier to experiment with crazy shit in games.
I have the willpower to not ruin a game with it but sometimes you just want to do crazy shit and that crazy shit costs time to grind or money to do.
Also I hear picnic in this is even easier than previous installments to a hefty degree. Like it is almost impossible to fail playing picnic this time around.
edit: I'm like the most casual ever. Story mode and let the game handle some of the mapping for me.

Can someone rank all 4 EOs?
I played 1 and 4 but suffered fatigue midway through in both games sadly. I'm not sure if I could just get into EO IV again if I booted it. I was in the 3rd realm if I'm not mistaken (the ice landscape) but I dunno if I should just play EO Untold instead and start fresh.

Yeah, I just noticed that price on the eShop. I'm having a bit of a moral dilemma, since I want all that free DLC, but really don't want to pay $60 on principle.
Huh?
That seems really low it's less than a gig. Can anyone else confirm?
Haven't played the original version of II and want to reserve judgment on Untold 2, but I'd go:
IV > III > Untold 1 classic mode > Untold 1 story mode > I
Me too man...

I see. Should I just try to get into EO IV again?
Just play this game if you have it. The differences aren't drastic enough that if you can't bother with one game in the series, you'll somehow love another. It's too easy to get burnt out. What's more is that this game by far has the best UI/UX design. Simple things like increased battle speed options or being able to see the buff/debuff timers and even more strength/weakness details on enemies is new to EOU2.
If you haven't bought this game already, I'd say IV would be the best though I prefer EO2 of the four in my memory of the game. It's hard to evaluate because there have been subtle improvements to the general UI that is easy to forget how the games actually played.

3 > 4 > Untold 1 classic > 1 > 2 >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Untold 1 story mode
Order that I'd recommend them to be played: 4 > Untold 1 > Untold 2 > wait to see if 3 is getting remade or get it already because it's the fucking best.
