Playstation Tablet 1,725 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 (edited) It's so bad that I recommend even hardcore JRPG and Atlus fans skip it. It feels like a fanmade mix of Persona and SMT for casuals that they want to appeal to. Not only is it Terrible but it's practically impossible to die even on hard. The level design is simply another level of mediocrity. Edited January 10, 2023 by Team 2019 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Twinblade★ 3,893 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Even though I liked what I played of SMT4 it made me realize that im pretty sick of SMT games at this point. They all blend together and it feels like im playing variations of the same game. The only exception ill make will be for Persona. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. House 3,371 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 YESS. I'm so happy someone else gets to share my pain. It's the most grindy, insulting Atlus RPG I have ever played and that's quite the achievement. The fucking nexus dungeons or whatever it was called is a slap in the face. The combat system is great but that's it, just about everything else is flawed in one way or another. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's called the Soul Matrix and you need to finish it for the true ending. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think my brain is trying to forget, it hasn't been that long but it feels like ages ago already. It pads the game length so much and the worse part is, it doesn't even have unique enemies from one dungeon to the other, so you basically repeat that boring ass process 3x times and the side quests related to them will pad that even more. It's like the most grindy piece of shit I ever seen. I had to use the dungeon skills that makes the character run faster because I couldn't take it anymore. The side 'quests' in this game are also just filler. Boring ass tasks that makes you go back to some old ass dungeon where all the enemies are under leveled. So much fun.

Playstation Tablet 1,725 Posted January 10, 2023 Author Share Posted January 10, 2023 The game has only three dungeon themes. Standard dungeon, final dungeon and soul matrix. It's pathetic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Devs at Atlus: ''Yeah, our game is amazing, let's find a way to artificially increase it's content for another 50 hours with boring, repetitive content.'' ''Shouldn't we make new assets and content, sir?'' ''No, this is fine.'' Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hope you enjoyed being disappointed Look man, most reviews don't even point out how big of stinker this actually is. It should be in the 50s or 60s range at Metacritic but it's in the 70s. This is why I play shit for myself and make my own conclusions. I would have still bought the pos either way, I was one of the first person tor truly trash this game for what it is. Can't trust anything out there, just try it yourself, worst thing that could happen is you've wasted 60$. I think I'll live, at least now I know how bad it is. I always wanted to play part 1, I have no idea why I never bought it for the DS. The 'sequel' has very little to do with that game anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

From reading the previews of the game it didn't sound appealing to me. Always look like shallow "sequel". Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Playstation Tablet 1,725 Posted January 10, 2023 Author Share Posted January 10, 2023 JRPG reviews are generally trash, so you got to take chances like David said. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
