Etrian Odyssey General

EO4 then EOU1 EOU2 imo

Only way to experience it is from the beginning, so you will get full understanding of the series and all the nuances of each game.

>replying to a hours old post

uhh

Why 4 first?

Yeah, that might be good. Thanks.

It's got the perfect amount of difficulty for a beginner.

Because it has a demo and it's the easiest. I'll never understand why people recommend it as a first title. Not only is it easy, it's the black sheep of the series when it come to almost every aspect other than mapping. I just think it would give people a skewed view of the games

it's the easiest while still being moderately challenging for a beginner
it's also a good way to ease you into classic mode so you don't accidentally slip into story by playing eou first

rather have an easy -> hard progression than the other way around imo

Classic skill trees hit like a brick after playing EO4 though.

EOU1 classic, my medic is running out of things to use skill points on and cant find any EOU1 character builder:

Clear Strike or Caduceus?

you got poison right?

No. p/dh/r-m/t. dh poisons already. but for future playthroughs or story mode, is it good?

I think it does 800 damage per tick when boosted, 500 without at max level without any grimoires. So yeah I found it quite useful for the normal game.

age

This age?

nay

This will never be.

>I just think it would give people a skewed view of the games
Going from one of the harder games to IV is actually pretty disappointing. If IV is your first game, you don't realize how tiny the dungeons are, for example.

Why do I find the camo skirt and tights so good?

Dragon Age

I hope Japs draw more Brownies as other classes, those cute little thick thighs are great.
Also CUTE

I've only played EO4, Eou2 and Strange Journey. Finished SJ, at the second stratum of the other two. I really haven't noticed any large drops in quality. Strange Journey is my favorite so first; but that's probably because I played it first.

Brownie Necros would be pretty weird, since those coffins are about twice the size of them.

Still want a Brownie Cestus though, I want my shortstack brawler girl.

They can just use the coffins as stilts.

Or small coffins.

Finally killed Overlord in EO2U. But the game ends there, while i've heard theres a 6th stratum. Is it Story mode exclusive or what?

I think you need to do a quest to unlock it

it's that chalice quest you get that unlocks it

>chalice quest
What chalice quest?

You can get to the stairs right away. It's just that the teleport later on doesn't work until you complete the quest.

but the game just ends right after i kill the Overlord, i dont get it. I'm on classic mode btw

You save your cleared data and now more stuff is unlocked. There should be new quests at the bar

Do you remember what you did after beating Chimaera, Flame Demon, Scylla and Harpuia to get to the next strata?
Just do the exact same thing again.

Borked as fuck and glitchy as hell, but it's a fun little game.

I just wanna tug on a runemaster's poof!

I hate how the newer titles handle status effects.
In the 2D games the "snap" sound dosen't happen unless it hits.
But the 3D ones it just snaps when it's cast.

I also miss how enemies shook when you land a critical.
Really gave an impact on the attack.

I honestly miss the effects of a critical, yeah.
It feels so much... Less interesting that you just did a load more damage if you land a crit.
Like give us SOMETHING more visual. I don't care if it's just an exclamation mark after the number.

So, general.
What is your Arcadian guild going to be called?

Shinsei. That's what I name all my guilds because I'm lazy.

ARKS, as usual.

Enemies always shake when they get hit, the only different thing in crits were the SFX and the bigger hit effect, something that is also present in the new games. I'll give you the ailment thing though.

ルシファイブ

If I can't think of something else by the time the game comes out, they're the Lucifive.

If QR rent-an-explorers are still a thing, will you make your party members have goofy specialization names for when people upload or Streetpass you?

My party will only have goofy specialization names either way.

Your reapers better have the lamest, edgiest specialization names possible then.
I want you cringing every time you open your status menu

Highwind
It'll be either goofy, edgy, or some abominable combination of the two.

Not him but my entire party will be pure edge.
The guild name will be Chuunibros for a reason.

Dark Death Edge of Eternal Bloody Moon
Too bad the western character limit will not be nearly enough for them.

Loki Necro will have Star Platinum as his specialization.

user the dodge fencer base specialization name is Illusory Swordsman
I think you're good.
speaking of, would Vision Thrust be in the dodge skillset? I mean it makes sense, doesn't it?

What if you could name spirits?

Wait, you can't? I remember reading somewhere that people plan to name the spirits Teach.

Then Loki Necro will be a stand user.
Labyrinth of Bizzare Adventure.

I don't think it'd make a lot of sense, due to them violently exploding for more than half your skill set and all.
But if I could name them, I'd probably go for haunt demons from SMT.
Dybbuk, Vetela (specifically the exploding one), and Mou-Ryo

Blue Rogues

I'll probably just what I always do and combine a character's name with the town name

I'll probably go serious with names.

the lunatic dance that invites death

>Not using necrololi as Alice with Die For Me as specialization and Belial and Nebiros as Ghosts.

You can have three ghosts though.
And Alice isn't an elf.

name the ghosts after the three magi, that's pretty edgy

From my perspective, that's exactly as edgy as calling them Santa Claus, Rudolph and... Nick, just for filler.

Gonna go full chuuni on the specialization names. No regrets.

>not Goggie, Lukoje and Bugs

Really now.

What about Clotho, Atropos and Lachesis?

I hope you can name and recolor ghost portraits, as well as give them voices. Same for birds and dogs.

envoy of life's twilight

What about Necro as Sanda with Ojamas as ghosts.

Porthos, Athos, and Aramis.

Needs more edge
Bringer of End
Night edge
Slumbering Demon
Black Luster Slayer

And now truly begins your Shinkaiju no Meikyuugami Tensei: Peculiar Expedition

I still hope there are any artists ITT who'd be willing to draw generic Therian girl in a bunnysuit

Would it just be EO Characters + SPACE MARINE + Stands VS Demon Stands and DIO/YGGDRASIL CORE/MEM ALEPH?

streetpass doesn't exist here

W-what?

user probably lives where very few other people live. Nobody has 3DS but him, and nobody plays EO but him.

Poor user.
But still QR rent-a-characters will still be a thing, right?

>all character portraits have ridiculous poses
>Only supernatural classes can see/affect supernatural enemies and F.O.E.s
>Paranormal modern/completely obvious post-apoc setting
>Classes are stuff like Bancho, Space Marine, Mad Max-style Bandits, and Devil Summoners
>LAW/CHAOS split gives you COMPs and Demonicas as equipment to fight, or unlocks the potential of 「Stands」 for your party as a sub system
>Unlockable Vampire/Demonic Possession class

>Stands are skill progression
>Possibly Samurai, Devil Summoner, DEMONICAs, Demikids, Persona user, but in ridiculous poses
>A Force Break sound effect is probably ORAORAORAORA
>Mem Aleph-Abyssal God Fight
>F.O.E Negotiation
>Stand Fusion?
>Demonic Pillar Men F.O.Es
But does it have
hoys?

I've gotten one EO streetpass in my life and it was from a lesbian

Are we so dead that the /smt/ crowd is creeping in? EOV needs to hurry up

I'm not surprised EO and SMT share fanbases.
In the earliest cases, SMT was Atlus's DRPG series.
Now EO is.

>doing the same thing as that user

You sure showed him buddy.

JJBA is also creeping in.

>creeping in

how did you know that was a lesbian?

Crawling in?

Why not something like PQ but SMT characters each with their own skill lists and a demon they can each summon?

I've only ever gotten 3 street passes. A kid who played Mario, some woman who played animal crossing, and one guy who streetpassed me in every game I have active. I wonder if he was as surprised as I was considering I live in a pretty small town.

>implying everyone is a newcomer who didn't start his map drawing from MT

Stop being so new.

Because then it wouldn't be SMT X EO X JJBA.

>stand demons
>SMT characters
>EO gameplay
But for the added flair
Araki does all the art
