Atlus is making a survey about what to do next, at least they still remember they made RPGs other than Persona.

Atlus is making a survey about what to do next, at least they still remember they made RPGs other than Persona.

Did you miss the entire 3DS era? They've shat out tons of RPGs that aren't persona.

 

[Terra]

That first question though...

Hey, Experience Inc.'s horror adventure Death Mark is coming to PC too:

Blessed Experience Inc. The game is quite good, btw.

 

[Terra]

Seeing Growlanser on that list reminded me I'm still pissed Atlus didn't bring out the PSP remaster of G1 alongside G4. Criminally underappreciated series of games. Nice to see "PC port" options for so many of the questions too.

 

[Reinhardt]

That first question though...

No "mudcrab" option?

 

[Hirato]

Not a very good survey tbh.
Doesn't really tell Atlus anything beyond "There's lots of people who love our games, and a bunch of them want a PC/switch/xbone port!".

There's no room with which to provide any actual feedback about what they're doing well, doing poorly, or if you actually even liked the games in question, as opposed to the series as a whole.

Desu taimu desu.

A doujin RPG published by DLSite. Sound like a free-from RPG with world exploration:

Yet another KEMCO game. Is the sequel Cloudic Stories coming too?:

Something pseudo JRPG made by gaijins:

Now you can play with 3D-fied Terra on PC too:

• In DISSIDIA FINAL FANTASY NT Free Edition, you can play part of DISSIDIA FINAL FANTASY NT for free.
  
• In the Free Edition, you can play online and offline battles with four pre-selected characters. The characters change weekly.
  
• Story mode is not available in the Free Edition.
  
• Some aspects of the Free Edition differ from the full version of the game (in addition to the differences described above).
  
• There are two types of characters: the 28 from the full version, who appear in the weekly lineup for the Free Edition, and DLC characters, who won't appear in the weekly lineup. Please be aware of this when purchasing starter packs.
  
• You can battle online against users from the full version.
  
• You can carry over your Free Edition save data to the full version.

This doesn't sounds like a bad idea. More fighting games should do that, so we can know if the netplay is not shit before buying it.

 

[Rahdulan]

Story mode is not available in the Free Edition.

Almost had me.

 

[Viata]

Another game killed by censorship.

 

[Terra]

How convenient, the site is down and I can't view the changes & "improvements".

 

[Viata]

Perhaps because many people are trying to access it.

If the replies are accurate, they removed panty shots so resetera won't be tempted.

Here are the changes:

To ensure a release for the West, content changes will also be included in the localized PlayStation®4 and Steam® (PC) versions. To reduce content which could be interpreted as sexualization of characters depicted as minors, the following changes have been made:

• PlayStation®4 Packaging art
  • In order to conform to public storefront display standards, images that can be interpreted as too sexually provocative must be modified.
• Sachika Bedroom Scene CGIs
  • In the Japanese release, Sachika's panties are visible. In the Western release, Sachika is wearing pajama bottoms.
• Sachika CGI in the Opening Scene
  • In the Japanese release, Sachika's panties are visible. In the Western release, the camera angle has been raised to not show Sachika's panties.
• Child Rinko Extend Machine CGI
  • In the Japanese release, Child Rinko covers her chest with her arms. In the Western release, the position of her arms has been adjusted.
• All “Child” bedtime event cutscenes removed

Btw here are the removed cutscenes there is not only lolicon but also Grannycon.

And not buying the game. But I'll pirate it. I guess it's time to buy a PS4 if I want to play non-censored games.

[Viata]

Yeah, who am I kidding? Sony is censoring games even in Japan.

 

[Reinhardt]

Even this article is about Steam AND PS4.
