I'm retarded?
story prolly will be good, UI looks awesome, combat looks good, but dungeons and other activities seem pretty fucking shit ngl. when will japanese devs outside of From, learn to make good level designs, jesus. Looks worse than P5 in that aspect.

Beyond excited for this. The art style is incredible ...
I can't get enough of the side-profile view of the characters on the menu screen. It looks neat! :pie_starstruck:

(For anyone that's confused about what I'm talking about, it's the trippy animation on this screen.) ↓

Sega Atlus has been on an epic roll since last year. Gaiden, LAD 2, Unicorn, Persona, and soon this new IP. In less than a year, theyre keeping a large portion of my faith in videgaming alive.

These menus look SO CRISPY, ugh I love it. :messenger_fire:

There's something about the subtle changes between frames that makes it look so cool.

Also, don't laugh at me too much TTSL, but I'm getting some *serious* Final Fantasy Tactics vibes from the menu music ... both my eyes and ears are obsessed with this game :messenger_sunglasses:
Atlus is absolutely master of stylish UI design.
 
Less than a month to go, haven't seen any footage since last year, going to be so many surprises. Astrobot and Metaphor were my most anticipated games for the second half of 2024, I have no doubt this will rank high in my top 10, can't wait!
 
I loved Persona 5. Masterpiece.

SMT5 was frustrating and boring. Hated it. Quit after a few hours.

Will I like this game? I go in completely blind to all games, so I haven't watched any videos. I do have it preordered, since JRPGs are my thing.

I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
This thing is barely 4 weeks away. I already secured a cheap key and hope to be able to jump in day 1.

You seem to dislike good videogames, so I'd advise you stay away from this one. :lollipop_tongue:

Watched a few B-roll videos.

I just can't stand the outdated af look of this game, by which I mean the art is good (characters, illustrations), but 3D realization of it on a level of PS3/X360 at best and it's just abysmal and bad, along with UI and stuff. There's literally no lighting, shadows, any kind of AO, textures are terrible and... Man, how can you release a game looking like this in 2024? Persona 5 even looks way better with its excellent combination of 3D and 2D illustrations with incredibly slick overall look, UI etc. where as here everything is brown, grey, bland, dead and devoid of color.

Well it's a PS4 game..

-edit-
