But that was still over 2.5 years ago.

i am not familiar with the series. What's the difference between SMT and Persona and how is Persona a spin-off?
Aiden Collins
free rent
Aiden Allen
smt mainlines are inferior to persona except for the soundtrack
Jonathan Parker
one is a grindy barebones dunegeon crawler and the other is a jrpg with dating sim elements written by people who read the back of a book about Freud and Jung
Benjamin Hughes
Persona is highschool waifu trash, SMT is more of a post-apocalyptic cyberpunk scenario
Elijah Wright
SMT is the original mainline series and Persona originated from it. Instead of demons and angels killing each other in a post apocalyptic setting in a battle between chaos and law, it's high schoolers living their life with the gameplay dungeon crawling of SMT with demons summoned for battles.
John Ramirez
Mainline has better atmosphere and also dungeon design excluding 4. It took until P5 for them to finally do real dungeons and they're still only average at best and nothing compared to usual SMT dungeon design.
Kayden White
so the only difference is the setting and persona is more popular just because of highschool waifus, correct?
Owen Lee
Once they finish the game they're going to bash out like 2/3 more real fucking quick I bet.
Easton Murphy
SMT games are boring to be honest, just like Persona.
Asher Rodriguez
Yeah I guess you could say that.
Jason Ward
SMT is focused more on combat, fusioning demons and dungeon crawling. Also, the choices you are given to get different endings. Persona from 3 and onward is half that (in many cases, its a light version of smt in those respects) and half high-school life simulator/romantic vn.
Christopher Anderson
Persona became the mainline series almost a decade ago.
Thomas Gonzalez
pretty much

>friend dropped smt sj because he got destroyed while trying to do a pacifist run
Brandon Evans
>pacifist run
Is that even possible?
Aaron Nelson
It's a combination of "Slice of Life highschool adventure" and "Waifuism"
Blake Harris
P5 BTFOs every SMT dungeon, it's not even close. SMT III and "JIMENEZ" had especially shit dungeons.
Cooper Brown
Didn't Atlus say they'll announce news about this game this year?
Don't worry I'm sure they'll reveal the game....unless covid ruined all of those plans and the game is further delayed.
Brayden Powell
SMT is a series of hyper repetitve grind crawlers with the exact same 'plot' and the exact same 3 shitty 'choices' every game.

Gee, I wonder why...
Colton Lewis
Persona has this anime-y thing to it, more like a visual novel. It has this calendar system, and side activies, specially of the type that trigger sequences between characters to develop bonds between them. But the ending is the same either way.
Liam Jones
Name one place where you grind in SMT IV.

>P5 BTFOs every SMT dungeon
P5 has shit dungeons, atleast SMT dungeons are somewhat tricky, the ones in P5 are easy as hell
Anthony Anderson
>dropped a game after trying an autistic playthrough
He isnt a smart kid, eh?
Eli Lee
Shinjuku
Adrian Sullivan
ALL, literally all dungeons are super easy in all SMT games so it's irrelevant. And even then P5 is the only one other than SMT III to have some challenge.
Michael Torres
Why the asspain?
Benjamin Clark
Grind where and for what? I never grinded and easilly beat the game. MC as a mage is too OP to grind.
Wyatt Barnes
>atleast SMT dungeons are somewhat tricky
Well they're a series of hallways and teleporters. It's not exactly tricky but it is a slog as you just have to progress through trial and error as the high encounter rate of mobs whittle down your resources.
Noah Mitchell
>pacifist run
did he try to talk down every encounter?
Nicholas Morris
Amazing
Ryan Wright
a lot less unecessary dialogue, a lot more focus on actual gameplay and a much better gameplay loop
persona is really just SMT-light, with focus on visual novel aspects and a lot of the combat is all-out-attack spam, while SMT is more focused on good combat and dungeon crawling like others have said
you also don't have a fixed party of people but rather you and your always-changing demons, kind of like pokemon but more hardcore and you're using all the demons at once
