Persona 3

Yum, you might wanna clear up some space of your PM storage :P

It's probably all those PMs I sent her that she never responded to after she vanished to Valhalla or wherever she went ^_^

And, fie to games that require me to read and comprehend simple kana, let alone kanji!

There should be a all-kana version for grade-schoolers or something. Also for stupid people.

:(

More like vanished into tokyo AD 20xx

arc! You interested? It's playable even if you can't speak jp at all... You can read guides around the net and it's pretty fun...

hima, use my friend's account. ill message it.
 
I got it... but I'm stuck on floor 16... Do I have to wait for the full moon?

Also, anyway to level faster? Since the enemies are so weak by now(level 7), I just solo around, trying to get as much exp. as possible, but I don't get that much. I want to level up so I can get some kickass personas lol. Right now, I'm using Forneus, and he's pretty cool. Decent stats, Dia and Bufu.

Orpheus looks pretty cool though... Any like him?

The enemies will get harder. ;) And you do have to wait till the full moon if you found a place you can't go on.

And I love Orpheus! :D Sad he only has like three skills. >.o <-- actually, he has another one if you get Asparas or something like that. Combo healing spell = <3

Usually once you've killed the bosses for that section and finished the quests, your level is enough for the full moon boss. Try not to level grind and establish social links/ raise your charm, academics and courage instead. If you're getting low exp, that means you should be able to take on the full moon boss. In fact you'd benefit more from a practical standpoint by befriending people because of the bonus exp provided during fusions.

And 75% of the demons in megaten look cool...

All of them are here http://www.popanime.net/megami/wiki/index.php?title=Demonic_Compendium

although they're not categorized by arcana there until you click on a specific one... most of them are included in Persona 3 anyway.

I think the angels look cool, in an ironic dominatrix kinda way...

http://www.popanime.net/megami/wiki/index.php?title=Angel_(demon_-_divine)

Or something. Me, I'm a goddess / divine fan myself. Ame no Uzume, Kikuri Hime and Dominions just look so cool.
 
I like the justices and magicians so far. Right now, I'm using Principality, Jack Frost(he freaking owns), and Pyro Jack(He rocks just as much as his bro). Just beat the second full moon boss. Pyro and Frost do their magic thing, and Principality's attacks are all pretty useful(except for Hama... it never works). Dodge Slash saved my ass against the boss :D

I guess you're dating Chihiro too huh... :-/

EDIT: A question for you hima, I just finished the Kyoto vacation... Does it make a difference if I successfully evade capture in the hotsprings or not?

This game is a definite step up from the only-slightly-better-than-average Devil Summoner CRAZY JAPANESE NAME vs. CRAZY JAPANESE NAME.

Atlus needs to find a way to localize Innocent Sin. I just can't appreciate the Persona series with that piece missing.

I'd also like to address supplementary material (or filler... whatever). More games need this. 60 bux should get me more than the game burned on a disc. When I buy games, I'm also buying the packaging and I really appreciate it when publishers add in extra material. The game's great enough; an OST and Art Book is just pure gravy.

Actually some Americans I know like the fact that Eternal Punishment has missing pieces in it (makes it more mysterious). It's set in an alternate world anyway and despite the fact that gamers might not be familiar with the world of Innocent Sin, they'd still be able to enjoy it to a great extent... And Persona 3 is just totally unrelated to Persona 2 storywise, so it's a good starting point for new megaten players. Although to be honest if one wanted a true megaten experience, they'd be better of playing Nocturne. THAT is SMT.

Think of it like Persona series = vodka mudshake

SMT series (pure SMT such as Nocturne) = sophisticated wine.

Devil Summoner: Kuzunoha Raidou = rootbeer float

EDIT: Digital Devil Saga = Beer! This one's beer. Atlus' answer to final fantasy...

All of 'em are nice but the second one's more... mature? The third one's just plain lighthearted fun.

@ Hima: I've got a question for ya, refer to my previous post.

If anyone wants to experience how an RPG should handle it's atmosphere and story telling through characters rather than lame plot devices, they should just play Nocturne.

It's a shame Atlus doesn't advertise. I can understand "limiting sales" to recoup for any potential losses but they're just alienating any potential fans. I didn't even know Revelations was released in english until Eternal Punishment came out in 1999 or whatever and I managed to find a used copy of both of them.

And EP came with a developer interview cd... how many other games did this? I remember one of the developers wearing these massive sunglasses and he spoke in this deep voice and was all cool and shit. i wanna be him.

As for Atlus' advertising, well, they've got me ':|

And it's not that they don't advertise, it's just that put simply, it's hard (and scary) to market a game in the West where the final boss is the judeo-christian God and Adolf Hitler is a major character.

Try Megaten online Marcus, if you're a fan. It's got everything in an SMT game, talking to demons, exploiting weaknesses and all that.

EDIT: Just read the wiki, 1999 - I guess that was still elementary school.
 
@Yum
Only the outcome at the end of the trip will be changed, but there are no major different. So you might wanna save and try both ways to see the result. Both of them are funny XD

Oh also, I eventually managed to create my account by using yahoo email (I was trying to check if other emails than hotmail work :P But Thanks you anyway Yum! You are so nice XD. What's your character name in the game?

@Marcus

I kinda agree that they should translate "Innocent Sin" too...but it's probably difficult when Hitler and Nazi are in the game @_@

And yes you should try Megaten Online! We could go explore the dungeon together :) I went there alone once...not cool at all X( I got killed by Jack Frost and Nekomata so many times.

Let's play tonight. Will you be online in about 30 minutes- 1 hour? Let's clear a dungeon or something. My name's ルクレシヤ

(lucrezeea) yours?
 
@Yum
I will! My name is イラッド :) I'm only level 8 though. Oh, I'm in channel 6, by the way.

@Fafnir
