I could see that being the case. I feel like Soul Hackers wasn't as impressive as Atlus's other English voice work.

I really want the crossbell games to have an official translation, they deserve it for how good they are

This is completely different though, Falcom doesn't translate their own games, other companies do it for them. You would never play a Ys or LoH in english if they were taking care of the translation (also LoH scripts are infinitely bigger than any SMT game, so eh)

They're adding english voice acting, add that with the pandemic, and I can see why it would be a problem. China and Korea don't have to wait because their versions just have the japanese voices. Now, to nitpick the simulcast thing, they don't actually translate the episodes of anime in 1 hour. Translators get ahold of the literal script for the episode at least a week in advance. While you can get translations kinda fast, high quality professional-grade translations take time.

Atlus fans are truly the simps of the gaming world

A lot of people have pity parties for Atlus and I don't know why. Nocturne doesn't even have long cutscenes or that many instances of voice acting assuming generic npcs aren't voiced. Atlus doesn't need to overcharge us for DLC either. At least when NIS does it they were on the verge of bankruptcy, but Atlus just does it because they know that fans will let them get away with scummy practices.

Lol Final Fantasy VII Remake wouldn't be my first choice as evidence for your argument..

Simulcast translation quality can be really spotty. Unless it's Funimation or something where they can get the script ahead of time. And that's really it, it's about coordinating with international teams. I feel Japanese developers don't really hand anything off until they have the game mastered and ready for production.

@@jazzhands8525 I'll say yes, get it. The game is an amazing experience by itself and having access to it on modern day consoles is great. The game may lack in some areas but it doesn't change the fact that Nocturne is a good SMT game. I'm getting it for the switch just because I want to have it portable and many friends want to have a taste of SMT so I'll lend it to 'em when I done with it. However, I won't deny the fact that this could have been much more if Atlus had put more effort and maybe waited a little more before releasing it.

to be fair they also had to rebuild the game in another engine because renderware died/EA

They didn't want to make any significant changes, but apparently still had few qualms about charging $50+ for what is basically just a reskin... Then again, that's pretty much modern Atlus in a nutshell..!

exactly, I can see why they would have this feature in like Nier: Automata for example, but in games like Smt or Persona, the difficulty is a part of the fun. Having to build a team and form strategies to win is what makes the games good

etrian odyssey does the same thing with pinic mode. it's basically a joke difficulty that's impossible to ever lose in and you can autobattle everything. eo at least has a story mode to look to but nocturne only offers like 5 minute blips every few hours, so besides grinding for the last magatamas i can't see a use for this, both casually and as a hardcore fan of the game

I kinda feel that way with Fire Emblem and the casual mode option Being able to keep a character that died in combat in a game that was intended to make you feel the emotional weight for losing a comrade in the battlefield is just... weird to say the least So yeah I don't like this kind of option either

@@RonaldoVODS Smt varies in difficulty, the thing with building characters in 4 and persona is that you have to play on the highest difficulties cause if you don't any form of strategizing or building completely ruins the difficulty. I guess it's mostly a balancing problem but I wish the difficulties did more then simple stat tweaks too

That was explicitly the developer's intention. They wanted to make it easier to get all the endings.

@@OrmylLP oh yeah i remember that. european versions crashed when you summon a demon a demon in battle if i recall correctly. bs

@@DengueBurger true but if the goal is to propose "play the original" it s not that difficult to just make an emulation in the newest console(like virtual console in nintendo product).I don't know how the switch or p are coded so there might be bugs that arise from that but at the end of the day a console is a computer and can emulate(how good can it do it may be a problem though)

Dragon’s Dogma isn’t like this. Shoot, it didn’t even brand itself a “remaster” when it ended up on PS4, Xbox Once, and Switch, but it looks and performs WAY better than the original version

@@DengueBurger Don't say based, that's fucking cringe

Again with the culture explanation which is a tautology that explains nothing. Grow a brain.

Its probably not going to be fully priced. Japanese versions of the games are always overpriced. Catherine Full Body on the switch is $75 on the Japanese eShop but $50 in the west. Persona 5 Royal is $90 on the Japanese PSN Store, but $60 in the west. This'll probably end up somewhere between $30-$40.

PCSX2 is very hardware demanding, im finding it hard to believe a 12 year old laptop could emulate Nocturne in a playable state.

@@TheSonic497 it got the work done.... it isnt really 12 years old tho. It's just trash

As long as it does well in Japan it will be fine (to Atlus), and it will have at least a few months before they get SMTV there. I am also concerned that this game won't do well outside of Japan, but maybe the nintendo direct push and general goodwill toward Nocturne will help it sell decently...

Debut sales for physical in Japan was 100k. That's pretty decent sales for Japan and Atlus' priority when it comes to a successful title is always Japan. So Nocturne remaster having good sales alone in Japan is enough for to consider bringing older SMT games and whatnot.

It's also simply the difference between Nintendo money and Atlus money; Nintendo's gonna push their shit out when they want it out, pandemic or no. They'll make absolutely certain they create a safe environment for their localization team and get it done ASAP. They have the money to do that. Atllus not only doesn't have that sort of money, they also consistently underestimate the impact of their games in the West. Nintendo is a worldwide sensation and household name, and while they've gained popularity in recent years, Atlus still develops relatively niche games designed predominantly for a Japanese market, whether they're owned by SEGA or not. Likely they and Koei Tecmo WANT to get Scramble out in the West, but there's too much else going on right now. Underestimating the effects that a pandemic has on a company that already takes forever to localize products is pretty foolish.

This was my first smt game besides persona 3 years ago, got it for 10$ on psn for ps3

Hell yeah. Have fun.

Nintendo is the biggest offender of this, bar none. This is painful to say, especially as a lifelong Nintendo loyalist.

Apart from the terrible market decisions, limited releases and bad online, how is Nintendo getting worse? The switch has their best line up of games since the 3DS back in 2012. As a company, yeah they have gotten worse. But as game publishers? They keep getting better.

I think atlus and Nintendo as consumer friendly companies have gotten significantly worse over the years but I think their actual developers have gotten better. This is just a cash grab but stuff like nintens fe 3 houses or atlus p5royal are the best stuff they've made yet imo

@@Robotta Look at how many ports they have on Switch that they charge full price for, and then subsequently remove from the WiiU eshop. The joycon hardware lawsuits and Nintendo outright denying there's any kind of defect while offering free repairs, for said defect. Their hardware QA is seriously lacking compared to previous generations, there's videos out there of wiis and gamecubes surviving crazy falls and the Switch can't survive a few knocks from chest height. The thing outright frys itself being charged in a non 1st party dock; they coded it that way so consumers have to buy an overpriced dock. Do you not remember how bad the Switch's launch was? They're as bad as apple now, entirely anti consumer. Those 3 points you mentioned are huge, especially the marketing practices; they constantly sell lackluster ports for MORE than their competitors. Look at the recent case with the one user on reddit who sent his Switch out for repairs and they sent him back a BANNED console; which took a massive twitter/front page campaign to even get corrected. They ignored him for months. All this being said, I enjoy my Switch, but the past 3 years has really opened my eyes to just how awful game publishers can be.
