Sigh…. EU4 is the "new" EU game. You haven't grabbed it ? Been out for awhile now. HOI4 only came out this year I think though.

It's working fine for me. And don't worry, the New 2DS just came out, it's selling well, and Nintendo is still releasing new games for it, so I doubt the servers are going down any time soon.

Someone translated the Chronicles version of SMTIII if it is of interest to anyone. It replaces Dante with Raidou Kuzunoha.

I hope so, Granzella isn't a very big studio and they have always suffered from it (>>14423) but they are remaking this from scratch and working with the Kobe fire department to make it realistic, the trailer itself looks great so far and as you've said, very real.

Are the Xenosaga series good? I liked Xenogears and Xenosaga were supposed to be the spiritual sequel. Xenogears were supposed to be a trilogy but because of the relationship between Square Enix and Tetsuya Takahashi, he had to remake it as Xenosaga instead but I've heard that it's not as good as Xenogears.

I haven't played the games in years, so this just may be my nostalgia speaking, but I absolutely love the series as a whole. I would at least recommend playing the first game. Xenosaga II wasn't as good, but the third game makes it worth getting through.

So Mega Man 11 was finally revealed.

I'm not a really big fan of the whole 2.5D thing. That style always puts me off. I won't write off the whole game over it yet though. Can't be as bad as MN9… right?

oh finally monster hunter is returning to sony! I was really sad when I got a vita & ps4 and capcom decided to stop making monster hunters for sony. I haven't played a monster hunter since freedom unite 2. Is it possible to emulate the ones they released for the nintendo consoles yet?

The GC/Wii emulator, Dolphin, is really good and could probably handle MH Tri. Of course you'll need a computer up to the task as well.

The developers for that WiiU emulator only seem to care about getting Zelda BotW running perfect on it. I don't know if you'll have any luck playting MH 3 Ultimate.

oh i really wanted to try tri, underwater battles looked really cool. i think ill play it after i beat mario sunshine. do you know if you can do any of the online missions? i think there are supposed to be some bosses that were online only, but I guess I can live with just beating the solo bosses

XX is quite fun. Some people say the flashy skills are too anime but I enjoy them. It's great to hear (read) someone say something cool as they fly past!
The nicknamed monsters do not play around too.

>>19326
Same. But I hear MT Framework is like magic so who knows, it just might run. Maybe on low settings.

>>19327
The combat's about positioning, timing and patterns.
It's quite common to forget all that and get tossed around if you're having a bad day or tired.

I think you can emulate 4U on citra as well and online for 3 is coming soon

I'm kind of worried about what they're going to do with the scaling difficulty in World. They have said that difficulty scales to the amount of players, which I guess might be a good thing for the average player, but I and many others enjoy playing the game solo rather than multiplayer and we enjoy that level of challenge. In fact I really didn't like 4U's village quests because of how easy they were. So if they've suddenly made it impossible to have that challenge it might just ruin the entire game for me. Hopefully it's just scaling HP and not damage, because that I can probably live with, but as far as I know they haven't really specified how it works.

Other than that though, World looks fun. I mean there are other things I don't like, like the new skill system which seems to take all the fun out of mixed sets, but I can understand why they want to simplify it for new players and it doesn't affect the core gameplay too much. The new monsters do look really cool and fun to fight and the changes to the weapons seem fine for the most part, and at the end of the day I guess that's what matters. I guess things like no loading screens between zones will be an interesting change too, although I'm not convinced that it's going to make as big a difference as everyone seems to think it makes. Same with monsters attacking each other, people make it sound like this has been some massive flaw in all the games that has been long overdue to be fixed, but I don't see how this even makes that much of a difference other than making you not have to dungbomb when a monster enters the area. And all the environmental stuff, sure it might be a fun gimmick to stun a monster using some environmental thing or whatever, but I don't think it's going to be as big of a deal as people act like it will be. Not to mention healing, which seems like the kind of thing where if you asked a lot of these people before World was announced what they think of flexing I'm sure they would have said it was a good thing and synergised well with the style of gameplay MH has, but now they are all acting like flexing was this horrible mechanic that should have been taken out ages ago and that World is going to be amazing now that it's gone.

Sorry this post ended up being so long, but I've had quite a few thoughts about this game and about what others are saying about it for a while. I know I sound pretty negative but I do think the game will probably be fun, I just have some worries and I feel like the game is getting a lot of undeserved praise, and I feel like so many people are just ignoring a lot of potential flaws and instead just saying how it's going to be the best MH game ever because it's on better hardware now.

I remember when all the Wii hacking stuff started up, someone made a mod that added all the online quests and bosses to the single player mode. Don't know how easy it would be to find, if it even still exists.

I heard blade and gunner armor got merged which kinda sucks. I like a lot of the gunner designs (I'm a bit annoyed you can't transmog blade armor to gunner and vice versa in XX). And don't forget about the regular updates. I hope band wagoners and cry babies don't run this into the ground.

I want to play Shin Megami Tensei and Persona. Anyone know where I should begin?

 No.19365

>>19362
What are your preference and what are you looking for? If you're not put off by older graphics then Persona 2 would be a good place to start, or you could play either series chronologically. Otherwise the easiest entry point would be SMTIII:Nocturne for the SMT series or any of the Persona series from 3 onwards. The Devil Summoner series is good too, it's often overlooked.

Personally Nocturne is my favourite and if you want something with deeper plot then I would suggest playing it, the Persona series is more easygoing and there are a lot of social aspect to it.

Incidentally, I just came across this.

http://game-dl.cdn.nicovideo.jp/game-dl/mgtnsynchro_1.01.zip

It's an omake side-scrolling game featuring Jack Frost and Jack o'Lantern that was originally a fake game in the trailer for Strange Journey titled Shin Megami Tensei: Synchronicity Prologue. It's free to download until the 24th of December.

This is fantastic advice as long as you're not the type of person that burns out or gives up easily, and as was already said, you don't mind old graphics. I'd actually expand on the old graphics to include heavily dated ui and gameplay too. I mean this too, follow this advice if you're willing to keep going with the series and don't mind how dated the games are.

Otherwise, just play Persona 4 Golden or SMTIV first, then move to Persona 5. I'm skipping even Persona 3 here cause a lot of people aren't used to gameplay like working your way through Tartarus anymore. This is what I would recommend to someone that wants to check the series out but clearly won't play through any of the older titles.

Deep Strange Journey is out in Japan and we should be getting a NA release soon as well.

The SMT and Persona series are independent plot-wise in each entries but there are direct connections between the SMT series and especially Persona 1&2(takes place in the same world and shares characters). You don't have to play the older ones to understand the newer games but it makes a nice addition to know the reference alluded across the series.

I'd recommend starting with the later Persona games since those are a bit more beginner friendly, 3 and 4 are usually recommended to beginners, haven't played 5 yet. Digital Devil Saga is pretty beginner friendly too but not nearly as popular as the Persona games although it's a good alternative if you're looking for a different setting.
If the social stuff and modern setting isn't your thing and you're more interested in the gameplay aspect then Nocturne is probably a good starting point but keep in mind that it's one of the more difficult games in the series.
There's no real reason to play the games in order since they are only loosely connected, at best, story wise and the only localized versions of the first SMT games are for the iOS as far as I know. If you want to play the older games in the series then Persona and Persona 2 for the PSP are probably your best bet.

>>19369
From what I know the two companies made a deal, they get to put Dante in the game and in exchange one of their artists designed the devil trigger forms for Dante and Vergil in DMC3. Very stylish!
