they went so hard on metaphors combat system btw

oh? do eIaborate

it's on hard mode so far substance over style

you even have to manage rows

your party member can go a row back to decrease damage taken

but they will also deal less damage

you need it to survive attacks

and on top of that you can still guard

I Iike that quite a bit
about time they put that in their games that aren't smt cuz idk if they have this

I aIso appreciate the game actuaIIy teIIing you about their existence

That's just for close combat people like warrior

Long range ones like mage still does full damage from the back

true! magic users deaI the same amount of damage

nice

that too

also atlus improved their cutscene technology

It's pretty useful to have a tank for that reason too

the camera can now follow characters during conversations

which means they can make cutscenes where characters are walking and having dialogue

no more these weird blackout scenes like in p5

(bIackout scenes?)

I noticed they Iike, actuaIIy use depth of fieId now
it's in P5 too but it's not used often, nor that weII

yes p5 has these weird scenes where scene transitions with walking are made by a black screen so they don't have to animate the characters moving

and then the new scene happens in a new area

in metaphor you see the characters walking

ohh
hey yeah it does do those fade-to-bIacks way too often

also this game is not a full turn-based game

they have multiple sections so far that use the action combat

The action is just to give you an advantage

Or to bulldoze them to get exp and money if you are higher level than them

holy firetrucking shit I am not even 5 hours into the story and Strohl already gets a banger arc

If you are gonna farm use the mage one. It's attack is an AoE one and you get MP back for every hit you deal.

It goes hard

where did the demo end?

Another hour or two from where you are

holy shit that's big

Yeah it's beefy

You the whole prologue and then 3 extra days to do whatever you want

You get the whole prologue and then 3 extra days to do whatever you want

holy shit I love Strohl

😭

if they all get limit breaks

in the later part of the game

it's joever for me

this evangelion shit is so cool
