You know what I want to see? Shin Megami Tensei: Seattle. I want a megami tensei game like SMT4 but in locations other than Tokyo. Shin Megami Tensei: New Jersey. Shin Megami Tensei: Sydney. It would be really nice if they could do this.

I doubt they'd do a good job of it. It'd be like setting the next Metro game in Canada or something.

Manatee Cannon posted:I doubt they'd do a good job of it. It'd be like setting the next Metro game in Canada or something. I seem to recall one of the devs answered an interview question about games set outside of Japan, and said the team would only be comfortable doing it if they had at least one person on board who had experience living long-term in the city they were using as a setting and was very knowledgeable about it. So they're not absolutely ruling it out but in practice it's not super likely to happen.

The next Persona game being in a large American city is about as likely as the next GTA game being set in a small rural Japanese town.

I'd settle for making the mysterious transfer student whatever the boys in the back room at Atlus think a Very American dude is. Instead of Ryoji and Naoto, give us President Camacho the Persona user.

Neeksy posted:Bebe was what they thought French people were like. Speaking of old Beeb the Weeb, does anyone know how his writing was done in the Japanese version? In the English he has a strong accent and peppers his sentences with French and Japanese words at random. Does the Japanese get any of that or does he just talk normally?

I think that he spoke like he was in a samurai flick, using outdated expressions.

Bebe speaks like a foreigner and occasionally uses outdated/overly honorific expressions. He's still a weeaboo though.

Kind of, but the location it takes place is Cyberspace and (very minor spoiler)you are the demons. It would be neat to have an SMT game take place in another city, but I don't think that's likely to happen anytime soon. Strange Journey seems to be the only one that was developed with the thought of 'oh someone from America might play this'.

Re: DDS2 location I don' think they ever mention the exact location, but the currency is $ and names would be unsurprising in either US or Canada. Actually, IIRC, there is a French last name character that uses "Madame" in her title, so Canada might actually be more likely?.

Eh. It's incredibly goofy, and not in a good way. It was easily a step down from DDS1 which was all around pretty great.

The gameplay received a ton of tune ups and probably features one of the better balanced examples of the Fusion Attack system and the story is a rather logical end to the series, especially since so much of DDS1 alludes to stuff in it. The ending dungeon is really bad though, like jesus does it go on forever.

The DDS games really benefit from being played back-to-back though. The first game is all the questions, the second game is all of the (very odd) answers. The first game has more sidequests, the second game has better optional bosses. The first game is more open and gives you increasingly more ways to combat situations, the second game takes your options away more often than not, and forces you to adapt your strategy. The first game is more traditional RPG, with towns and downtime--the second game is really a string of dungeon crawls punctuated by The Biggest Dungeon Crawl. Both games feature simply gargantuan final dungeons, perhaps the largest of any Megaten game.

DDS2 is cool (and has a sick soundtrack, just like DDS1) but it definitely fell completely apart at the end.

I've lovingly crafted the OP to a DDS 1 LP for the subforum, and I have the first post as well. However, I am unsure of how to progress with the game going forward. Does anyone have an awesome Walkthrough / FAQ that I can use to full clear? What stats are good to increase? Its pretty easy for most the SMT games, especially the ones where you never get magic, but it seems like you need more of a mastery of what each stat does in DDS to make your life easy. Last time I played DDS I got pissed off at the sewer dungeon underneath the Vanguard outpost and quit.
