Previous thread:

Are your ready for the dark souls 2: crown of the hevory king of Persona?

Wow this place is deader than usual.
I guess Persona really did win.

>making a new thread

...

It's just lack of announcements of SMT at E3.

Give it a day or two and the board will be back to its usual pace.

There is no way a new SMT game would be announced at E3. Considering how the series is still heavily centered in Japan it is fairly obvious that most of its announcements will be made at TGS.

>not Akihee-ho

what are the names of the nine pillars found at the Cosmic Egg again?

"Hello, YHVH?"

"/smtg/ dead again"

How atlus can make SMT more popular in the west without making it demon dating simulator?

What if your demon summoning smartphone was a grill?!

Make SMT HD really good.

They're named after days of the week in the hindu calendar. So Shani, Shukra, Budha...so on. I don't know about the last two, though, you might want to look up vids.

Strange Journey FPS.

And market it properly.

the last two are the problem, it's not showing anywhere in a cutscene. if it is after defeating Vishnu-Flynn in Anarchy route, there' still one pillar short

"Hello, SMT HD?"

"E3 broke"

Buroughs man

Appealing visuals and go multiplatform. I think they should pull a Nocturne again and try fresh approach but if the teaser actually has to do something with the final product it won't be the case.

I think I got a hold of all of them:
>Budha
>Shani
>Mangala
>Shukra
>Brihaspati
>Chandra
>Surya
>Rahu
>Ketu

to those who finished Apocalypse, are the last two correct?

>if the teaser actually has to do something with the final product it won't be the case.
Why? Because there's a building? Because there are demons?

>Stomach ache
>Ever a problem
It wasn't that expensive to get Iron Stomach.

>tfw no cute Burroughs art

Burroughs was the best IV girl.

even without Iron Stomach I've got ache maybe 2 or 3 times through DDS games
agree

yes. bring more Walter memes

The lack of Hoyposting lately made me miss it desu.

Hi folks, I'm playing Nocturne for the first time (I know I'm really fucking late) and I was just wondering as a first time player if it's bad to get the true demon ending first? I feel like I'm heading that way just because I'm doing the amala labyrinth, but I'm wondering if I should get one of the original non-maniax endings first, like if it'll make the story make more sense. what do you think?

I want to keep calling the new Stange Journey DEEP.
Redux makes it sound like garbage.

Yes. Fiends are broken.
Do Neutral and then go for fiends.

TDE is canon

You don't miss much by going for True Demon End first. If you want to see one of the other endings just make a seperate save file before clearing the final floor in the Amala Labyrinth, your route doesn't get locked into TDE until you finish the entire thing.

any Jimenez version of this?

There's not even any new content on non-TDE endings, I'd just youtube them.

I guess that's not a bad idea if you're the kind who always plays a game twice. Otherwise, don't listen to this.
There is no canon.
This. If you do it this way you'll just have to do the final dungeon twice. I don't know if it'll make the story make more sense, though.

Soul Hackers has some pretty funny negotiations

That's good to know, thanks. I was worried the split would be really early.

>make a seperate save file

Or just watch them all on Youtube, there's not even much difference between the Reason endings.

Content wise, there's literally no reason to not go TDE ever.

i gotchu

There's different dialogue and small variations going through the final dungeon as well.
You are right though, there's really not much point unless you just don't want to watch them on youtube for whatever reason.

not as good as the Walter one but tnx

Soul Hackers has some great negotiations in general. I like the concept of gifting things to demons (party and scouts) in general.

wut

Holy shit, was this woman built for my dick?
>smart
>cold and bitchy
>obsessed with research
>enormous tits
>cute
>pigtails
Why don't girls that have all of these traits exist in real life, anons

I've only gotten ones that one or two, maybe three if I'm lucky, but never all of them

You forget
>make Trumpeter her bitch by throwing laptops at him

>le cold and calculating research woman
You don't want a person, you just want some cookie cutter #23423

Am I wrong but could you somehow change to SMT4 music in Apocalypse or is it just in certain bosses

Just certain bosses.

Only certain bosses, like Merkabah and Lucy

>Fumi will never massage your prostate while you suck on her enormous gravity defying tits

Why continue to struggle?

...

At what point can I safely start to take on Twisted Tokyo?

First cycle around lv80 is fine. For anything after that you pretty much need the incense DLC and grind that so your level becomes pretty irrelevant.

W-when does this happen in the game? I need this for research purposes

you sound like a homo bro

>He wouldn't cum in a cookie cutter
How else you gonna make them cum flavored cookies?

Is the persona 1 manga worth reading? Where can I get the translation

Is Krishna best used as a support and a healer?

>not mixing the cum with the cookie mix
I bet you use butter, faggot.
You know how much saturated fat butter has?

For his Ragas, Combat Tara, and Salvation alone, yeah. One of the best supporters you can get late game, especially if you also give him Doping.

Might want to give him Healing Knowhow or something to help restore his MP, but that depends on how long he'll last w/ YHVH. Also whether or not you're fighting him on Conflict/War, since War iirc loves to suck your MP at the last 1/3.

You can give him Deadly Wind and Thunder Gods, but he barely ever uses them since so many endgame bosses love unbuffing, debuffing, and generally doing shitloads of damage even with +3s across the board in everything.

alright well i will then fuse him as a support healer and use nanashi and two other demons to do damage

Pretty much, yeah.

Venomous raga is amazing, and Combat Tara is a bit more MP efficient than Luster Candy, I'd try and give him Mediarahan instead of his learned Salvation though, and Healing Knowhow for Dekunda/Dekaja stones and ailment removal/MP restore. He's amazing for YHVH and Stephen fights.

You can slap a damage skill on him if you want, but it probably won't see much use.

>not having Black Maria in your team

>having Black Maria when you can have White Maria

>having either when you can just have a cute Jack Frost variant instead

Do you even hee, ho?

does his involvement in Apocalypse story mean he cant appear in any other SMT game again, much like with nyarlu and philly?

Why would his involvement in the story prevent him from reappearing?

describe your three-demon team of badasses

If Odin is making another appearance in the upcoming game (granted we're assuming that it's not yet another IV spinoff), I don't see why Krishna can't.

Vishnu in IVA on the other hand, most likely not for obvious reasons. Shame because his design is pretty gorgeous.

me, my demon waifu, and my dick

>Demonee-Ho
>Pixie
>Mara

...

It's not the first abadonned Vishnu too

>sample
user save your stuff correctly.
Also, i don't know why but danbooru filenames bug me for some reason.

>danbooru filenames bug me for some reason.
they're pretty useful if you use the site to save a lot of porn, since they always come with the name of the character/artist
n-not that i would know haha

There is not enough Pyro Jack

The OG needs more love.

Can Hairy Jack come?

>all those kino P1/P2 designs we'll never see again

Great job.

Doesn't tell me if it's sep or tri arc, whose fate event it's a part of, what I have to do to get it...

Just thursday, 730 hours. Thanks, user.

It's Jack O'Lantern now!

I'm very glad they made that change, hope it sticks for SMT.

Probably for SMTHD, not sure about DSJ, don't know if they can fit it.

That's fair, I was kind of thinking DSJ would go with Pyro Jack since the original game did anyway. At any rate I always though Pyro Jack was weird as hell in the context of the jack bros.

>I always though Pyro Jack was weird as hell in the context of the jack bros.
It is, I don't know what else you could do to convey the point within Nocturne's character limit though.

In kind of weird that we have gone back to that after all these years.
I don't think it's all that bad though.

At least it's not Nyalatotep.

I still can't understand why Eikichi's Hades is in a female outfit

>Crawling chaos
>Law

Has anyone in here played NINE?
What is the story all about?

>pop magnetite bonus, decide to check what skills i got
>multi-hit based on agi
>"huh my Garuda has a pretty high agi i wonder what will happen heard multihit is a decent skill"
>rare Rangdas that don't die to holy dance can't deal any damage anyway
I never felt more confident cloning shit through a compendium. Good racial, 3 open passive slots so you can put pierce and still have 2 more slots. Garuda is best boy. I assume multi-hit is just as broken in DeSu 2 or did they tone it down in Record Breaker? Just wish my favorite green blob wasn't level 40 so he'd be viable late game but oh well.

I'll saturate your butterfat

have you guys heard? apparently sega is looking to bring persona to PC

let's hope this influences atlus to release more stuff for PC

>Sega ports Persona 5 and SMT Nocturne to PC
>It's a Automata-tier PC port and needs fan-patches to properly fix
>except Nocturne is never fixed because the only hackers in the SMT fanbase are too autistic to get any work done
