[Idon]

hey Idon

how long's it been since the next SMT was announced?

Eh give or take... 830 days?
Etrian Odyssey is lookin' pretty tempting right about now...

It's been since January 2017 since SMT V was announced at the Nintendo Switch Presentation (the same one that revealed Splatoon 2, Xenoblade 2 and Mario Odyssey) if I recall correctly.

You know it's bad when I, of all people, actually remember this.

**** that feels like an eternity ago.

That would be funny, if it weren't so sad.

Since I dunno if I missed P5 Scramble roster talk, I'll just give my take. I'll take into consideration a range of around 16 characters.

Spoiler: Persona 5 Spoilers just in case since I'll talk about the final parts of the game

Cast obviously is going to be major part P5 + OCs. There was an OC revealed already so starting roster would include at least:
-Ren/Joker
-Morgana
-Ryuji/Skull
-Ann/Panther
-Yusuke/Fox
-Makoto/Queen
-Haru/Noir
-Akechi/Crow
-OC Character in the video

Given how P4 arena managed Rise and Warriors titles taking liberties, we would most likely have the possibility of Futaba/Oracle either in the starting roster or as DLC. Same with Kasumi, depends if the game is based initially on vanilla P5 or the Royal.

Villain-wise I would think that they will do what they did in Arena in creating shadow versions of the characters, still given other games like HW, PQ and P4AU that there is a high chance that we would have a OC villain. Unless the OC in the trailer is the villain, I would imagine that we will have another OC villain for the game.

More or less this leaves us around 12 characters, which I would think its possible if they go with the HW approach and give Joker, the OCs and Goro multiple personas to use and vary their moveset.

If they go with other Warrior games approaches, we would have 16 characters and we would have extra characters from P5 like Caroline&Justine/Lavenza or guest characters from other Persona titles (let's be realistic, only from P3 and P4). In which case I would think Aigis would take priority for P3 and Yu for P4. They would be followed by Mitsuru and Akihiko from P3, Teddie and Yusuke/Chie (dunno honestly who would make a good choice here it can change a lot) from P4.

Worst scenario is if they go with FotNS:Ken's Rage route where there was only 10 characters, I dunno much about this one but there could be a reason as to why so few but it seems like an exception.

Most confusing aspect is if Tecmo-Koei decides to add separate versions of characters like Black Mask and Lavenza (or the twins depending if another one gets in), but still I would imagine we would be getting at least 4~6 DLC characters. Which they could more easily use for guests in case they don't appear in the base game.

i'd say Kasumi is pretty likely based on P4 spinoff precedent, at least as DLC - Marie managed to squeeze her way into PQ/2, as well as Ultimax + Dancing as DLC (and this was when she wasn't a central focus of the reworked story like Kasumi seems to be)

Teddie and Yusuke/Chie from P4.

Do you mean Yosuke?

I'd add Naoto to that list, too. Considering there's a supernatural framing case, wanting the Detective Prince to investigate it is plausible.

I think that's what "died for this" means.

I was talking about lordofwood98 .

Why does Demi-Fiend have boobs? I assume it's them at least with the Tattoos and hairstyle and all it reminds me of them.

Why does Demi-Fiend have boobs?

Because...


Because why not?

****, do I have a soul?

 

[Idon]

Why does Demi-Fiend have boobs? I assume it's them at least with the Tattoos and hairstyle and all it reminds me of them.

Because the artist willed it to be so, and so his will was done, and the Fiend was Boobed.

And also a bunny girl, because the artist was like, double degenerate.

WAIT WHEN DID FAYGO GET BANNED?


WHEN DID IDON GET MORE LIKES THAN ME?!



WHAT YEAR IS IT?! WHO'S THE PRESIDENT?!

 

[Arcanir]

I honestly like Z-Moves more than I like Megas.

Z-Moves are a one-time super nuke which, I dunno, I've always felt like it feels like a natural progression in a game where you have moves that have critical hits.



Megas though are just.... bleh. There are so many Pokemon who didn't need theme that only got them because they were popular, and soo many popular Pokemon that didn't get them at all. I hate saying it but Megas really are the closest to Digimon that Pokemon's ever become.


If they were more balanced but, usually it's just "SLAP 100 EXTRA BST ON EM AND PUT EM IN THEIR BEST STATS"

Agreed for the most part. Z-Moves get a lot of flack, but in terms of execution and what it set out to do it did its job better then Mega Evolution did. It allowed every single Pokemon access to the moves so any Pokemon could be used with the right set-up and there wasn't as much restriction to it. Additionally, since every Pokémon had access to all except a handful the moves were in general more balanced as you didn't have any that truly centralized the metagame around them, and even the special ones didn't break the game in half. Finally, in terms of implementation into the games it was fleshed out better with a clear origin (their power originates from the portals), integration into the plot (The Z-Ring, Z-Power, and the gems all of that plays into the character's journey), and there's easier access to them for the player as most are made available as you play through the main story. There was a more consistent integration of the concept into the game and its gameplay, and it allowed it to fit into both without it feeling haphazard.

For the reasons you said, I can't say the same with Megas. As you said, a number of Pokemon that could've used it for the power boost/updates to their designs were ignored for popular favorites, and in terms of gameplay there were clear balancing issues as some had abilites and stats that were metagame centralizing (Salamence) while others were very undertuned and couldn't even carve a niche (Audino). The execution made the good concept behind Megas fall short of the potential it had, and it could've used another go through the ironing process to even out the power creep of the forms while also better distributing them across a better variety of options.

1. Artist wants to sexualize a character
2. They aren't attracted to said character's gender and/or don't want to admit they do
3. Change said character's gender to the one they are attracted to
4. ???
5. Profit
