I think this was the best article on it.

So it's a SRPG...? like Disgaea...? or like FE...? hard to tell from that trailer.

It's a dungeon-crawler RPG. Think something among the lines of Persona 3/4.

 

[ohlawd]

The battle system is actually really nice. The dungeons are not too bad either.

I'm allergic to dungeon crawling that isn't high quality, breh

I have a pretty high tolerance for genericness as long as there's something there that is interesting.

I also play a lot of games, so if I limit myself to 9/10 games only I miss out on a lot of stuff that can still give me an enjoyable or experience or a couple neat ones.

6/10s and 7/10s are worth a play too.

oh yeah I'm definitely getting this. I mean, if I can finish BioShock Infinite, I can finish this.

 

[PixyJunket]

Mmm, cheesecake and dungeon crawling, how can I not buy this?

The game looks like it might actually be decent too, so that's nice.

Damn right. If I were only after the high scored games I'd miss out on incredible gems like Nier, WET and Killer is Dead.

EDIT: Not saying this will be anywhere as good as any of those titles in particular, of course, just saying it doesn't have to be a very polished AAA product to have qualities, in Nier's case it's not even about "worth playing", the game is a fucking masterpiece.

Ah ok cool...might grab this for the Vita then...

 

[Immaculate]

i might grab it but the 3ds version doesn't sound all that good hmmm

 

[Ragingnight]

did this game get good reception in japan?

 

[R_thanatos]

Pre ordered ...
Is what i should say but for now whose girl will i choose ?

Thanks for the link.

 

[Parakeetman]

If how the prices of both games got cut in literally half at Amazon.jp thats not exactly the best sign for a game, which generally means folks want to get rid of stock now. Considering too its not like the title is super old too.

To those worrying about 2D 3D and whatever. Both games uses 2D sprites for normal VN-style dialogues and 3D models for interaction with the girls.
Difference, loading time, jagginess, framerate. Just go with the Vita version.

3DS and Vita version are the same in regard to "3D models", I don't know where the idea that the 3DS version doesn't have them came from. Ditto with the 2D artwork parts. The 3D models just look like crap on the 3DS (oh, and the 3DS's 3D effect is disabled when you're talking to the 3D ladies).

ok then, thanks for the clarification every one

Looks like Vita it is then

so its not that good is what you're saying

 

[vall03]

Hmmmmm.... April is perfect for me, been wanting to try the game out.

Also a bit off-topic, Demon Gaze doesn't have a release date right? I have a bad feeling that the game is either late-March or early-April. I think I remember reading somewhere too that both Demon Gaze and Conception II had the same place-holder release date, just can't remember where.

 

[dragonlife]

In for 3DS version.

 

[Parakeetman]

so its not that good is what you're saying

It depends, if you were a fan of the first one you should enjoy the second as it looks pretty much the same.

If you didnt like the first one, chances are you wont like the second. At least thats how I see it.

Lastly if you are unfamiliar with the game and 2 will be your entry point, just collect as much info and watch as many videos as you can about the first game and decide to pull the trigger or not from there.

If you do decide to get it and have both a 3ds and PSV. Id suggest the PSV version.

 

[Green Card]

I definitely want the Vita version but I prefer the 2D artwork for conversations. I wish we could choose what we wanted.

 

[Eusis]

It doesn't look like there actually is a choice, just some scenes use 3D models and some use 2D art. Or at least the 3D model was seen in the 3DS trailer and it doesn't make sense to go all 3D on Vita when they didn't on 3DS.

I hope it's April. That month is empty for me.

Thanks, I'll just Po it (vita) and wait for more news. Then i'll decide to cancel or whatever

Oh so both games use 3D/2D at different parts?

yep no problem. if you do get the game hope that you will enjoy it.

 

[eighty(one)]

Getting on 3DS.

Sorry Vita, but your game slot will be permeated by the FFX/X-2 greatness, which I will have been (by late March release) anxiously awaiting.

So yeah, I'll have other things to play on PSV, come mid April.

That's what every one is telling me so far in this thread when I asked.

 

[The Last Wizard]

Blonde waifu for me

 

[Dice]

I saw battle footage and have no idea WTF is going on.

 

[jello44]

JP had a demo ya? Hopefully Atlus translated that as well, so I can at least see how the game plays.

It looks so damn silly, yet fun.

Check out the videos that have been posted if you want this game I really suggest the Vita the 3ds version looks rough and is missing several features compared to the vita.

Yeah, there was a demo on both systems, so I'm hoping we'll get them. Maybe next month or March. Though I don't know how much the demo covered.

 

[Gonzo The Great]

That trailer really delivered.

Even though there was about five seconds of gameplay? Anime fans in a nutshell. This looks really bad, and I like Shin Megami Tensei.

I'll probably get it. I love Atlus localizations.

[ramyeon]

The frame rate and jaggies in that 3DS footage are really hard to stomach after seeing Vita footage. Might be down for the Vita version depending on the reception it gets.

 

[Man God]

Used to be a day one eshop kind of guy for Atlus games but considering every single one of their games has eventually gone on sale for around 20 bucks I'll only get the must haves on day 1. So...SMT, Persona Q, EO games....yeah, that basically leaves this. Oh, might wait on DS 2 port too.

 

[ThePeoplesBureau]

ImportGAF in the UK here. Dat 3DS region lock forces me towards Vita, but I think I would have gone with the same version had a domestic release been announced.

 

[CorvoSol]

Are we not getting the first game at all now?

 

[Zonic]

Are we not getting the first game at all now?

Nope. It was only on PSP, and the original was released in 2012, way after the PSP dropped in popularity in the US. Heck, the Vita just came out in the US 2 months before the game's release in Japan. It probably wasn't worth the time & money to localize it. & to be fair, the stories aren't really connected, so it's not like you're missing out on anything story-wise.

Ah, okay. No word on a translation project for it, either?
