If it follows FE tropes then it should be 25 chapters more or less.

Depends on how lenghy each could be but the game seems like it's pretty long.

Tsubasa's swimsuit is also very expensive, damn, I could buy the bundle of the game and have an extra 10k yen left for the price of that.

Tsubasa skin is precious.

I think 8 to ten would be much more reasonable due to dungeons being unique.

Are there S Links?

I think 8 to ten would be much more reasonable due to dungeons being unique.

Considering Atlus's track record, the number of side chara, sub bosses in each dungeon there should be at least that many. But maybe more because potential branching endings and final boss archetypes.

Persona had ~10 dungeons that are randomly generated. But that doesn't include other things you do on the side. SMT has quite a few dungeons and subplots as well.

Like I would be surprised if this game was short because it's Atlus doing the game.

We already know everything from Prologue up to Chapter 4. Other than side stories of course.

Are there S Links?

Not the same, but there are supports and side quests in the form of Side Stories that you do on the gamepad through the Topic feature. It gives you new costumes and skills and what not.

 

[Ōkami]

Side quests do look pretty meaningful, wonder if there are some that can only be accesed on certain chapters?

That could further extend the lenght of it, seeing how they mostly take place outside dungeons.

 

[Oddish1]

The developers said the game would take about 30 hours to beat the main story http://personacentral.com/genei-ibun-roku-fe-will-be-30-hours-long/
So I would guess 8-10 dungeons at most.

[Thoraxes]

Watching Hamayama's stream and man.

ATLUS RPGs on HD consoles look so fucking good. The presentation is so stylish and smooth, and the way everything gels together in presentation is just outstanding.

Not to mention that music is great, especially the battle theme.

I also like that he got Tsubasa's bikini lol. Ayane Sakura sounds great as Eleonora too!

This game looks really stylish and just really cool. Can't wait for the NA release.

Does anyone know what the filesize for the digital version of this game is? Just wondering if there will be enough space left over on the Wii U disc for dual audio, even though that alone won't guarantee dual audio in the western release...

[Toadthemushroom]

Thanks!

 

[HGH]

Impressed by everything so far. It's been so long since I've seen a good traditional turnbased game on a major console, everything's moving towards real-time/action sort of style for gameplay.
But man this game seems impossible to translate. Can't wait for FExPersona:4kids edition I guess...

 

[Leiru]

Is there a gif of when the characters are in the sky doing poses?

 

[InternHertz]

Tomorrow is the day! I hope the eShop will enable us to play at midnight Japan time, this would leave me the end of the afternoon and the evening to experience it.

 

[JoeyJungle]

Is this normal packaging for a Wii U game in Japan? It think it's really cool, it looks a lot like a SNES box.

Nah, it's a collector's edition.

Nah, it's a collector's edition.

Ah that makes more sense. Gave me some nostalgia for opening up new SNES games though.

Well that took a while. I remember him streaming a lot of games he got early (and teasing that damn Persona 5 trailer, lol).

 

[demonkaze]

Have they said what time the eshop download will unlock? Preloaded already and can't wait to start playing. Also noticed that the eshop version came with a download code for a costume pack.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Game looks pretty rad so far... I want to believe this thing is going to deliver.

I keep forgetting it's on the way next year. The number of JRPGs in 2016 is disgusting.

You're safe to stream after the release date, right? No idea how Nintendo stands in regards to their games.

The eShop preloads can usually be played from 12AM JST on the day of release, in my experience. Sometimes earlier, though. I think it's whenever you can start downloading the full game from the eShop (not preloading, but normal buying).

And the costumes are for the 'early buyers', the 4 Atlus collab costumes.

of course this means swimsuit DLC, with the boys swim suits being cheaper than the girls. Plus extra paid quests to make the game easier.

Beginning of first chapter, just unlocked the making of new weapons. Played for 2 hours right now.

Can't say much right now of course since I've seen almost nothing of the game but I really like what I've played so far.
Battle gameplay is Persona, so it's really nice. Graphically, I really like it so far too, very nice looking with nice colors everywhere. Sound is good to, the music is really engaging and there's a lot of voice acting of course.

For now I have one minor nitpick, concerning the bestiary accessible from the menu, it seems you can't see special enemies in it, which includes bosses. You can only see "farmable" enemies.

Otherwise I'll have to play quite more before saying anything else.

can you actually craft multiple copies of same weapon?

 

[InternHertz]

I know the first weapon you get is in the list, and has ingredients.
So I'd assume so, but if you want to know for sure, I'll try tonight after my dinner and report

thanks... they should allow multiple copies (since it's really limiting if it isn't) but it would be interesting, min-max wise if it isn't

 

[expel]

Juggling between an MMO and this game...finished the prologue, i like how the menu feels very stylish n snappy...as expected from Atlus I guess

 

[kuroneko0509]

Should've known this is Atlus game... now I wonder if I should bother with

Hard on 1st playthrough since Lunatic is unlockable after game clear

You cannot, I've tried remaking the first sword and (character name for the person doing the crafting)

Any word on how presales for the game are looking? It should be a good seller, right?
