Bro said lemme play some of the main theme and I was hit with one of the best fantastical sounding epic bangers I’ve heard from a game in years, only for him to go “yea it’s good, idk if people will like it” I see your point, but as someone who thought it sounded incredible I was like uhhhh😅

Been hyped for this the whole time but especially after the second showcase yesterday

I wouldn't call Metaphor ReFantazio a generic name

Bro switched up on FFXVI😂🕊️

My most anticipated game! A culmination of Atlus's history of games, I can't wait!

The GUI and visuals are so insanely stylized and beautiful

About the ost. You said that it’s departure from mainline smt and persona ost, but if you ask me the ost is quite reminiscent of SMT: Strange Journeys ost which Meguro did compose. So I wouldn’t say this isn’t completely uncharted territory for SMT.

Tbh the whole becoming king idea and the removing the piece of heart glowing tattoo reminds me a lot of smt

My friend has been trying to get me into Persona for like 6+ years now, the past month I finally fell down the hole (even though I had played 20+ hours of P5) I am just NOW addicted. I saw this on the showcase and was instantly sold on blue male Aigis in this weird hybrid ARPG/TB fantasy game, Idk why but I feel this will be an underrated gem and so I'm so close to pre-ordering, I really want it to succeed

Getting it day one

I see Atlus RPG I buy it, I am a simple kind of person.

looks interesting, a mix of different atlus game features. will give it a try when it comes out!

The music is really Final Fantasy

It’s basically ye old persona but still looks cool

Turn order isn't set by the player in SMT. The demon with the highest agility gets the first turn. Or at least that's how it was in SMT 3 Nocturne when I played it. I haven't played SMT 5 yet, but I will be picking it up when it drops on PS5 on June 14th

The battle system for me is like if Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy X-2, and SMT all mixed together EDIT: The game feels like an Etrian Oddyssey successor thematically. Personally, I an extremely excited as I am a fan of all the series mentioned lol, Persona, SMT, Etrian Oddyssey, and Final Fantasy

I swear if they somehow try to sneak demi-fiend as a secret boss I'll lose it I've been bullied enough by demi-fiend already with SMTV^2 I do not need another one

I do hope new sidequests dont pop up after clearing a dungeon a different sidequest The pain of clearing several quests in P5 Mementoes and the literal next day a new sidequest shows up

I'm a simple man, I see a job system, I buy the game.

it releases on my birthday!!

Tbh while SMT is something that could be marketed fairly easily, Persona from 3 onwards is a harder sell. The games look and sound great. However, in terms of the appeal of the gameplay, isn’t obvious until you sit down and play it. Given that Metaphor’s gameplay is rooted in Persona 3, 4, & 5’s social simulation, I imagine that it’ll be hard to sell until it’s out to play.

I'll definitely get it in a year or two when they release the definitive vengeance royal golden edition

Honestly, I'm kinda bummed that it's a medieval looking game. The reason I don't play much Jrpgs is mainly because I don't like that setting. But that's just me, and if the gameplay and characters make up for this it'll be fine.

I am beyond pumped for this game. I hope its as good as Final Fantasy XVI is. JRPG fans eating biggg

Great video was already interested cause I like Altus but this kinda sold me

Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme

at first i thought what atlus was doing is stupid. they are basically branching out smt(the mother brand/) into different branching off franchises. but if you think about it, it gives them the freedom to utilize the same base principles and elements of the mother franchise to different flavored branched-off franchise. those branched-off franchises could then target different audiences and can be used to experiment without harming the overall mother brand. if the final fantasy franchise starts implementing this, it would most probably lighten the burden they are facing with it. final fantasy as a brand has became too big and heavy for its own good.. but if they start segmenting the mother brand into different branches, they could still use the same elements from its bigger franchise but the branched-off franchises could have different flavors. ie, they could now target those who liked the battle system of 16 and the battle system of 7r, both at the same time with different branching franchises. all of which could still use the same elements, all of which could have a character called cid etc without harming the bigger final fantasy brand.

Idk how i feel ab the music

Rpg fans should be excited, yeah

I would get this game if I had any clue what the game is like

Persona 5 Strikers combat crawled so action combat for Metaphor: ReFantazio could run

Does anyone else think that the main character look like Minato/Makoto from Persona 3

I'm super excited for this game. But, I don't entirely agree with you that this game is being overlooked. The vast majority of people I know seem super interested in it. And even general gamers I don't know seem interested in this and will be picking it up day one. But keep up the GREAT content!

already preodered.

dont tell me how to feel

Hoestly, i’m kinda bumed that we have these social sim mechanics in Re:Fantasio. I kinda hoped we’d have a more serious story with good pacing. I despise the fact that persona like mechanics and themes have encroached themselves into almost every game atlus makes nowadays. Notable casualties of “Personafication” i can think of are: -Devil Survivor 2 -SMT 4: Apocalypse -Soul Hackers 2 -and now Re:Fantazio

Do people really don't talk about this game? Just because it's not called PERSONA, when for all intent and purpose is absolutely Persona 6 anyway? That's beyond pathetic.

Honestly the only thing I would've changed so far for this game is the name. Keeping it as Re Fantasy would've been better or just calling it "Archetype" after the games main power like Persona. Metaphor just don't stick with people I feel.

Dude i have been excited for this game since they announced it 7 years ago, waiting 7 years for it so there is nothing for me to not get excited and plus people are just so one note they just don't like something different that's all, and screw p6 idc about that game i am really over the persona series, but i love the time management gameplay and plus anyone says the time management gameplay is a persona gameplay just really speaks that they only played 3 and 4 and 5, cuz u see persona usually doesn't have that time of gameplay it was just a generic dungeon crawler, until katsura hashino came with p3 and introduced that type of gameplay, so that type of gameplay is more of his thing so of course it gonna be in his new game and plus this game is an anniversary title and a really big thing for atlus, people who demand p6 should the the F up!! I am starting to hate a game that not even announced cuz of the people, and u said it if this game called p6 people would be excited just speak how biased and one note people are, but yeah i think this game looks better then any persona game and the time management will work different then a persona, cuz it focus more on travel and ahh i am getting excited just thinking about it, idk why u said the marketing is not good dude they literally explained everything perfectly, people are just dumb so instead of questioning the market maybe u should question the people themselves, there is no more dumb people in the world then the persona fanbase i fucking hate that fanbase and tbh jrpg fans in general, and also the music is gonna slap idk why u said there is not gonna he hitters like persona music dude the persona music is getting old now and i diffently love this more like the battle theme sound better then any video game soundtrack i heard , so yes people are just so one note and so dumb they just can't understand anything

tbh, i'm excited about the game but not having the smt demons is a really huge turn off ngl.

Stop

Unpopular opinion: Persona 5 is extremely overrated

Ill be honest ho I despise the persona mechanics in a game thats different then persona :/ It feels unoriginal or unfit somehow haaaa I might not get the game anymore Ill see... Also i thought they transform in those beings during battle not controling them from behind like all the trailers seemed to show :/ kind of a meh choice in my opinion As for the UI i think its awesome kinda makes me wish smt 5 got the same treatment the UI in that game during battle its just a carbon copy of Tokyo Mirrage Sessions and its disappointing ;C hoo...
