There's a zero percent chance a sequel to a game released near the end of console life in a genre the creators aren't known for is the second most selling game in the franchise

i think raidou is gone for good because they can't sell those games to any of their neighbors

Doing a little bit of research on Japanese sales shows me that two years after release the game was estimated to have sold 162,041 copies overall with 37,316 those in its first year. Looking at Atlus games released around the period for comparison: Devil Survivor 106,000 copies in its first year. Persona 3 Portable sold 183,283 first year. The Persona 1 remake sold 149,740 first year. Strange Journey sold 127,946 first year. It's only not the worst selling overall Atlus game from 2008-2010 because Yggdra Union exists - and it still sold more in its launch year than RvKA did in its. That's why the series is dead. e: Nocture did 200,000 in its first two weeks like c'mon Blockhouse fucked around with this message at 06:22 on Mar 28, 2021 |

There's also the thing about not being able to use Raidou's design in China and Korea. Even if they wished to revive the subseries, they'd probably reboot it with new characters in a new setting.

Is Devil Summoner: Raidou and Devil Summoner: Soul Hacker two separate things or are they both considered under the Devil Summoner banner? Never been sure since they both have different gameplay.

Altho i guess they had to create new models anyway? Not actually sure how remasters like this work lol, since tbh they look super similar to the original game to me. I have bad eyes

Tired Moritz posted:Just put him in a different outfit? Just because the outfit is the only problem with him in Nocturne, doesn't mean it would remain the only problem if they made another Raidou game. It's set in a part of Japan's history that REALLY doesn't play well in China and Korea given their places in it.

Never been sure since they both have different gameplay. They're all considered part of the same Devil Summoner series, though Raidou was a PS2 era reboot of Devil Summoner to turn it into an action RPG and give it more of a distinct identity; sort of like Persona 3 was the PS2 era reboot of Persona that turned it into the life sim/RPG hybrid that it is today. Though there's barely any common elements to all the games in the overall Devil Summoner series; all I can think of is the "normal" setting as opposed to the SMT post-apocalypse, the presence of the Kuzunoha devil summoner family, Victor and the Gouma-Den as the demon fusion location, and demon allies that talk during battle and have a Loyalty mechanic to manage.

The Sub Series all share the conflict between traditionality and modernity, just expressed differently per game.

May Raidou's successor is Raiho, who is clearly cool, not hot.

Raidou gets called out of retirement for one last job when a demon possesses a container ship and uses it to block the Suez Canal.

You can change the setting all you want but we're still running into the problem that Raidou Kuzunoha is not a brand that moves numbers and there's no compelling reason for Atlus to bring it back

We've had three completely separate branches of the SMT franchise with a talking cat, when are we getting one in a starring role.

Actually Mona will show up, but these cats talk for a completely different reason and thus can’t understand him, so they don’t ever realize he’s also a talking cat
