tries to be relevant I hope they put them in the next Persona game

DAILY DEMON SHOWCASE

This showcase's demon is of the Deity race:

1656425153750.png


“I’m Deity Mahamayuri. With my wisdom, no harm shall come to you from this world’s evil.”

Alignment: Lawful-Good

Origin: Buddhist mythology. A bodhisattva whose name means “great peacock”. Although female in most traditions, some depict them as a man. Mahamayuri is also called "the queen of the secret sciences" and the “Godmother of Buddha”. The latter name comes from the instance where she ate Buddha, forcing him to cut out their stomach. As one of the five protector goddesses of Buddhism, they guard their believers against poisons and maladies.

Skills: Zanbarion, Mediarahan, Mabufudyne, Force Block

Next time, you will meet a demon of the Raptor race.

Now, this design is a gender. Mahamayuri is depicted as masculine in SMT, which is a bit uncommon but not unheard of. Their design is pretty close to what you’ll find in religious iconography: a benevolent smile and holding a citron, bael fruit, lotus flower, and a peacock feather in their hands.

Ah yes I'll be buying 5 games I already have on Switch cause console portability and I can't be ****ed playing them on their OG consoles.

The gaming version of "It'll take me 30 seconds to make me a sandwich but nah I'll walk 20 minutes to McDonald's."

I wonder if the reason it took so long for Battle network to get a legacy collection is because they were working out the licensing with Konami and whoever owns Duel Masters? Hasbro i think.

I will only complain about Persona on switch if they screw up the translation of 4.

How? It already got scripts for added languages in the Steam port but they didn't touch the English one. It's obvious that ATLUS West is fine with the work they already did.

Okay, but as Mighty said, they made Nier work.

Maybe they had problems with KH3 and just wanted the entire series to be in the same format? :drshrug:

My guess: Platinum Games are who ported Nier Automata on the Switch, as they have experience with the Switch already.

Asylum just stop already. You could be using this money to help the world be a better place. Help the poor and homeless, help the people of Africa, help the environment. Hell use this money to help Ukraine out yet you proceed to keep making these cheap low-budget mockbusters you call movies...

With how daft they may be if they think this would work, they should be locked up in their own asylum!

This man here is actually excited about the Barbie movie. I loved Barbie as a kid and from what little we've been shown, even if the script isn't good, it's at least going to be a fun time.

at least it can't be as bad as top gun

I actually do have fond memories playing with barbies. I often played them with my sisters, especially if they were sick and couldn't see their friends.

And trust me, it'll be 100000x better than Mickey Mouse Top Gun

The remaining movies coming soon. A few still peak my interest while the others are not. I feel that this year has exhausted its good movies.

I know people are pessimistic about the chances of P1/P2 on modern consoles but I think there's a good chance we can see an announcement for them in the near future.
Their PSP versions were not far away from P3P/P4G's release and if ATLUS wants to announce these in three-game packages, it makes sense to wait a while after all modern games are released. Plus, they made a ton of merchandise for the classic games, which is something they rarely do.
It might be too early for the Persona Super Live announcement but I believe we'll see them return in one way or another.

seeing Persona 5 showcasing Switch buttons feels weird yet nice. Not sure whether to stick to everything on the PS5 or to get 3 and 4 on the Switch…either way I’m satisfied, while Gotham Knights may not be bought as soon as I assumed it would

also…Sonic Frontiers…I would like to point out how it still looks pretty amazing compared to what most expected. Moves smoothly while looking more like Generations and Unleashed since it can’t go 4K. Definitely getting on the Switch

and not sure about Nier since I’ve never played it past the demo, which was nice, but don’t think it’ll be enough to buy

IIRC They are called Ashen Demon because of how they slaughtered their enemies with 0 emotion.

Also they are innocent because… reasons I guess? Considering they are much more mature in 3 houses from the get-go.

that helps, but then they’d just be called a demon only, or something else that still ends in demon. Giving her a specific coloring name is somewhat odd.

Also they may be a bit more mature in Hopes due to them spending a longer period of time without people to take care of or anything to lose w(like how she didn’t start smiling until months into the professor gig or crying until Jeralt was lost)

Hmmmmmm......3 things I can say.
1. You know the artists are going to work
2. She might be a part how the phantom ruby was created. Who knows.......
3. There might be a bigger threat other than her. Common choice is eggman. Although, the real answer might hide within cyberspace.

Bonus: she might have existance knowledge about the players. As her appearance represents like a program manifesting into a physical form

I know the Sonic games have kinda had inconsistent human designs, but I really dig this one. Doesn't look too realistic like the humans in Sonic Adventure or 06. And Unleashed humans kinda just looked like a completely different style in contrast to characters like Eggman. This is a nice design, haha.
