[@datboilol3849]

Only thing that scares me about this game is a year later, Metaphor: ReFantazio; Vengeance Reloaded Royal Edition with no save transfer from the OG game.

[@akkristor]

Per a recent interview, ATLUS is moving away from Maniax remixes (SMT3 Maniax/Nocturne, SMT5 Vengeance, Persona 3 FES, Persona 4 Golden, Persona 5 Royale) and are going to focus more on DLC-styled expansions instead.

[@datboilol3849]

@@akkristor man that’s music to my ears. I was this close 👌🏾to buying SMT5 before Vengeance was announced like 2-3 days later. So glad I waited or I would have been pissed.

[@captainkirk5027]

Probably 2yrs later

[@eltonmsn]

Atlus games have high replayability, no save transfer is required

[@iangaskins3843]

I know he's probably the bad guy, but that Louis dude is seriously compelling.

[@corruptedteka]

They did say in the AX panel that they want the players to see Louis as a sort of secondary protagonist, despite him being more of a rival ( not sure that's the best term, but we do compete over the throne, so ).

I hope they can nail this game, would love to see other successful Atlus IPs other than Megaten.

[@lemon5000-tj6nv]

That’s what they’re aiming to do with this game, they want metaphor to be the third pillar next to smt and persona

[@kiranis2174]

@@Midori_270 Mostly yes, but it has some references to SMT3 (for example you can fight against SMT3 protagonist in DLC quest). So you can start right from SMT5. p.s.- though SMT3 in great game.

@@DashingPunkSamurai Microsoft paid them to omit PS from all marketing, at least in the West. In Japan and most of the east there's PS marketing, and not only that, they even show off the PS5 physical editions instead of the XB ones, since the XB fanbase there is literally nonexistent

[@dirtylaundry022]

Great implementation of the Trails through Daybreak combat in field battles

[@john_7000]

Yeah but better, trails through daybreak combat field are sooo clunky, and from what I have seen from this game the field combat is much faster as u immediately kill the enemy u don't have to spam the attack button.

[@Magnetite_Eater]

Louis... Cypher?

[@risepuffs]

I AM SO EXCITED

[@InfectedElite]

Hope the Protagonist has a somewhat given name/Default. But I also noticed in combat the player names aren't listed. Only their "job" of seeker etc. As for the mystery final party member, atlus said 7? they've shown 6. I'm guessing Louis. Act 1 is getting to face him, save Prince. Before realising that Louis isn't the bad guy, cue bigger bad guy for act 2 and 3. Hell, I'll even take a wild guess..The Prince is the real villain and Louis knows it so he tried to stop him, but when the player stops Louis, The Prince shows true colors/takes the throne and crown. Becomes main villain with underlings
