Might just be the best modern blobber-successor game to date.

With its strong narrative and awesome combat, blows games like Stranger of Sword City out of the water.
And is actually hard as nails on Hard, at least early on.

This game has had the Japanese dialogues completely rewritten in places in order to please Twitter feminists

And one of the characters has had her butt completely removed from what I can tell

So yeah I'm not buying this unless it's a 70% sale or something

Not that I care about looking at anime butts that much, it's the principal of not rewarding this horrific 'localization'

Given how great it has been selling, this might be the direction of Atlus going forward for all of their games

Yes, I've seen the anti-woke brigade drama.
Hasn't bothered me, though. I haven't noticed dialogues sounding wrong or artificial yet. And sure as hell Gallica doesn't sound passive-aggressive, like I've seen claimed.

Note that, like with SMTVV, I'm playing with English subtitles over Japanese audio - if that could change anything.

The English subtitles will reflect what the people haired feminist localizers think the game should be

I have no idea what you guys are on about, are you sure it's this game version?! I mean, I despise all the woke shit and there's just none of it. The characters are all straight anime tropes and I really have not noticed anything wrong with the dialogue. No lecturing, condescending bullshit, the butts are fine. I dunno..

If that's what's stopping you from playing the game, maybe just give it try. It's fucking fantastic.

I will probably give it a try in the future, when it's decently discounted. I can't shake off the impression of it being a Persona rip-off with garish visuals. This might be one of the rare cases when I find art style and design in a JRPG off-putting. And I still have SMT/Persona to play, so they will take the precedence.

Did you sleep at the beginnig of the game? Your first arrival at Royal Capital Grand Trad is woke localizer sandbox. There is a combo of aburd amount of SJW key words spitted at you in first 15 minutes there, that it's not surprising you could think it's some kind of japanese Dustborn. Otherwise it's fine, thank God it's the only place where you experience it, but it takes a few hours to shake that feeling off. The game feels like typical nu Atlus production, no more woke then P5, with more light hearted/try not to offend enyone writing(at least for now, 50 h into the game).

Louis did nothing wrong.

Well, I haven't played Persona, so can't compare it well. Though I've heard its rather easy.
IMO the gameplay is much tighter, more interesting and challenging (on Hard) then SMTVV.

Though I guess if you don't like its style, then you don't.

I don't really understand. Yeah, there's lots of racism and prejudice and... racism = bad. Do you disagree?

Louis did nothing wrong.
Now that sounds funny. His motivations are one thing, but to go that far?

Racism is bad. To paraphrase MLK don't judge people on their race, religion or buttsex but judge people on their bank account.

Persona4&5 are just as easy as SMTV. The last JRPG I played that actually required tactical combat was Dragon Age XI with the challenges activated.

metaphors is not that great of a game while its nice that fitgirl compressed it down to its ps2 graphics origins. ps2 graphics and same 30-40 year old gameplay with a dumb 12 year japanese school children story made for adults. Drova foreskin is more fresh yes its the same 30 year old gameplay from gothic but more different then gothic games then metaphor is from shin megami games and its great for the skin as a night cream.

Also this game is really addicting. Its basically like heroes journey wandering sword without all the retarded grindy gameplay elements. The gameplay is fast pace and its a solid combat fag game.

The assassination of Louis thread was so retarded I've lost interest in this game. I can't remember if I was ever so disgusted by protagonist distorted morality in any game. What a bunch of weak faggots. If anyone, their are a treat to humanity and need to be stopped.

Why do we see a catboy being publicly executed in the first 30 minutes of the game? Is this some kind of new brand of weebshit?
