Correction, portrait DLC is free at launch (In Japan.) After that, you'll have to buy it.

Is it 300 yen each or 300 yen for the whole shebang?

Also I saw at least 2 alternate fencers (boxart fencer!!!). This is a good thing but it seems weird you can use her portrait when she's the final boss.

Omobono posted:To be honest, the whole game sounds like it might be just a little bit broken. What are we missing, Legendary Names confirmation or did I miss that one? Although I'm glad they're increasing the events' rear end in a top hat content, those seem amazing.

https://www.atlus.co.jp/news/8332/ Looks like the entire thing is 300 yen - or you can only buy the portrait set of a single game for 100 yen. Or get all of it for free shortly after release. Correction: The five sets for 100 en each are: EO + EOII EOIII EOIV EOV 10th aniversary special edition The promotional art pieces are in their respective games, even the EOV DLC portraits. It looks like aside from the EOV core and DLC portraits none will be customizable - so normal Fencer can get different hair, eye and skin color while cover art Fencer can't, would be my guess. werbear fucked around with this message at 16:51 on May 21, 2018 |

It's literally everything I was hoping they'd do. I don't even mind it being DLC 'cause hey, they feel like they gotta get money out of used copies somehow so whatever. I'll be getting it at launch so it's no skin off my nose. And Fortress gets a new portrait alongside Landshark. I'm actually not that surprised because Himukai himself has always treated the two of them like co-protagonists. And I used them both as the core of my team so I am super down. Also, as far as the gal hero alt portrait goes, blame Dragon Quest. Even more than just "oh Japan~~~" or whatever, it's specifically the place the DQ Warrior (and items like the magic swinsuit) have in the wider RPG Zeitgeist in Japan. The Hero is already very heavy with DQ references and is molded after that sort of leading RPG character, so if anything, if an outfit like that didn't exist, fans in Japan would be asking why it doesn't exist. It'll still seem dumb to a lot of us, but I am absolutely not surprised to see it, especially with how heavy the Hero is with DQ tropes as it stands. And good grief, it's not like we want for other options

Well now my only concern is how they're going to actually fit these portrait options in the UI. EOV and EO2U's portrait selections got a bit awkward if you had DLC, but I can't imagine having to page through 4-8 of every class not directly featured in addition.

I just thought it looked stupid. Don't think anyone was really griping about Japan or anything when they revealed that. As people already pointed out, that portrait seems hilariously  There are new portraits in the DLC, so they're not completely selling us already made assets at least. Better value than the singular portraits in EO5 at any rate. Handgun Phonics posted:Well now my only concern is how they're going to actually fit these portrait options in the UI.

Especially if they treat it like the generics in EO5 (Which are in this DLC pack, for the record) and let you use any of those portraits with any class. Given that we have stuff like Yggdroid portraits making it in, I'm pretty sure that's what they're going with.

I'm not sure if I'm more excited for the fact you can do a 5x protector-2 party again, or the fact the EO4 title landy portrait is in. I really like that pose, and think it suits the class more than any of the portraits actually in the game. It looks way more dynamic, despite being barely different.

I really dig the box art poses for Landy and Fort, though the new ones are cool too. It'll be hard to pick which ones to use. Oh, the joy of having good problems when previously we were worried it wouldn't happen at all.  On a related note though, I got to thinking: Pigtailed Fortress is now getting multiple variant portraits, and is even getting a Protagonist Pack portrait. It's safe to say she's getting high billing. And yet... Fortress isn't a playable class in the game, as far as we know.

Including a lot more player skills than the classes wouldn't be too far out of the question. Given that for EOU and EO2U, Atlus copied and pasted the entire monster skill table file into the player skill table file to make the Grimoire system with!  That said, it depends on how the guests are handled. The stream last night showcased the Medic guest providing a field effect (Passive healing every turn) instead of actually being a battle guest. (And eating up the 6th slot would basically shut down Hero entirely.) So if cross class guests happen, it would probably be in a far more limited effect compared to the rest of the series. I doubt they're doing unlockable classes again, because that model has several issues, and they've shied away from it entirely in their more recent games.

As cool* as it was to run a six-man party with a guest character, they usually felt sub-optimal and didn't necessarily mesh with your party except as another body. Turning them into a Mother-esque passive effect sounds like a nice compromise.

So, in EO4, how do you generally build a primary-class Runemaster? There's enough tiers of elemental spell that you can't really invest in all of them, but it's definitely worthwhile to have a bunch of different runes. For subclasses, the main synergy I see is Bushi, for a single point of Blood Surge.

The multi-hit skills are what people really focus on if they have a party revolving around a Linksknecht. Handgun Phonics posted:Do Runemasters have the stats to use Drives? I was somehow under the impression they were Str-based attacks. They don't have the stats to do so, and the drives are STR based attacks. The Imperial has a bunch of passives that helps boost the Runemaster's damage, though. Not as much as a Bushi does, but it's less taxing on their HP and TP.

Etria's japan, high lagaard is somewhere in north~westish europe, armaroad looks decidedly Mediterranean, but all I've got from Tharsis is that they apparently consider it the frontier. But Racoona is from Ontario, with it's exporting of maple syrup, and other maple products, her very obvious Canadian accent and the frequent mentions of winter, wouldn't put Lagaard in North America?

I used a Herald Shaman's Exorcism Prayer against Star Devourer's ailments and it kept my party rather clean. They are overall a great class for the fight since their buffs can counteract all debuffs SD likes to throw at you.

New video. https://twitter.com/SQ_kouhou/status/999575837878829056 Medics now have access to Heavy Strike and Star Drop from EO4. Their Force Boosts and Break are unchanged. Survivalist's force skills got changed. Their Force Boost, Dream Formation, is basically Airwalk from EO2, increased action speed and evasion for the entire party. Their Force Break is Mirage Arrow. A single-target Stab attack that lowers the target's accuracy and action speed.

The little kid heroes are really cute. I want them in my party, but I like the other hero portraits too. And once again, this series decides to make guild creation something I will waste hours and hours of my life on. Since we have like 60 guild slots, this game will give us something like the memory conch and training orb, right? Right?
