P3 > P4 > P5

Any true Atlus fan knows this is true

P2 Duology (story only, gameplay is meh) -> P4 -> P4G -> P3 FES -> P3R -> P3P -> P5 - P5R -> P1.

Personally Raidou 2 and SMT III are also some of my favorite Atlus games depending on the mood.

Take notes Square and make FF great again with turn based combat system…

This new system in Trails through Daybreak and Metaphor really is the way to go. Action when you want it, turn based when you need it.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

Are you looking on Metacritc? Those 34 reviews are just for PS5.

Just seems like many outlets passed up on the game?

For comparison: SH2 (68 reviews on PS5), FF7 Rebirth (151 reviews on PS5), Astrobot (135 reviews on PS5), Dragons Dogma 2 (91 reviews on PS5), Star Wars Outlaws (91 reviews on PS5).

Maybe more will come which would be good to give the game more coverage.

Nah let different artists at different development houses create what they want. No need to make everything the same. 7R's combat system is wonderful. As is Metaphor's, DD2, and Like A Dragon's too.

Xbox 60GB vs 23GB on PS5? DAT Cerny compression magic

Scores are way better than expected! This gen gears started rolling! Fantastic

I don't necessarily think so. It's just a very long game, and it will take a while for most outlets to finish reviewing it. If we revisit this in 2-3 weeks time, I bet the game will have 100+ reviews spread across all platforms.

In any case, good word of mouth will have a greater impact on the game's sales success than the sheer number of reviews.

Basically just like 13 Sentinels and Unicorn Overlord.

Yep, exactly! I'd also include the fan service-y stuff in case of Vanillaware titles.

Spoiler: 👀

 

[TheDarkPhantom]

So hyped

Goal is to finish at least one playthrough of Silent Hill 2 then dive straight into Metaphor. Will be working all weekend but I'll make the most of it, Euchronia needs me!

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Since no one has said they'll be working on an OT for Metaphor, I guess I'll have to take one for the team here...

Don't expect anything extravagant since it's on a short notice, but I'll hopefully have something ready by tomorrow at the latest.

 

[TropicanaTwista]

Really enjoying the demo. Was debating about this or SH2, think I'm gonna go with this as it's gonna take a LOT of my time

Anyone have good phone/ipad wallpaper for this game? I need to replace my Visions of Mana (disappointment) wallpaper.

Heh, what was this? You posted two minutes ago and it's already deleted.

Metaphor Launch Trailer

 

[Shake Your Rump]

I don't usually watch trailers due to spoilers, but that was cool. The part where someone is going to kill the MC and the chains appear is a spoiler of sorts, but I guess it was obvious since it's the MC.

GodDAMN I need this game asap.

 

[MagiusNecros]

1:17 in that trailer giving me the Majora's Mask vibes with that Moon/Floating Rock.

That sorta thing happens in the demo to someone so that at least makes sense it would happen to the protagonist

 

[nikos]

My hype for this game has somehow been restored after being really disappointed with the demo. I disliked so much about it at first. Wrote a pretty lengthy rant that I decided to hold off on posting before giving it another chance, or three.

There are still some things I don't like about the game and others that are unacceptable, mostly technical (somebody please buy Atlus an ultrawide monitor) but I'm warming up to it and I sort of can't wait to really get started.

 

[Danjin44]

I’m not gonna watch this but so fucking excited…..Hashino doesn’t miss.

 

[nikos]

That said, the UI and VFX are obnoxious. It's as if a bunch of ideas were thrown on the table and they used all of them. It's way worse at 16:9, which I'm forced to play at. Don't know how people do it.

Also, does this kid have to grunt every time he sprints?

Still excited for the game though.

 

[Labadal]

A bit disappointed about performance, but I did read such impressions in the demo thread. I ended up deciding to keep my preorder, despite some doubts about translation, too.

In the end, I do enjoy Atlus games, and will give them the benefit of the doubt for this one.

 

[yogaflame]

Along with Silent hill 2, I will purchase this game. I have finish Stellar blade and still playing FF7 rebirth. Now I will have a more good games to play with SH2 and Metaphor.

I hope for the success of Metaphor to save gaming from Western twisted woke agenda games.

This might be standard fare, but that wording is pretty upfront.

Looks like they are trying to circumvent the incoming legislation from the UK that will undoubtedly spread to the EU.

English too. Try headphones if you can. The zero delay bothered me too, but like I said, I think they are just inserting that confirmation chime where the dead space should be.

I just wanted to mention that I think I found the cause.

I play using 5.1 speakers. The dialog comes from the centre channel. The click you hear comes from the main speakers. This is why I didn't hear it, as it was masked by the music, and I am listening to the dialogue from the centre.

So, if you are using stereo speakers or headphones, I guess you will hear the clicks mixed with the speech.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

80-84 range. I have a backlog of games to play, so gonna wait for a sale.

You've made a series of incorrect predictions for this game.

You're annoying and give me GaaS.
