3 more hours! I'm only going to be able to play a couple hours tonight, but I'm going to dig in hard after work tomorrow.

This is about V and thread started in 2017.

VV is the sequel game and released now. Seems like it's worth discussing the new game and isolating spoilers to a new thread.
It’s not a sequel, it’s a rerelease that includes a new route.
I do see your point now that I’ve thought about it a little longer, it would make sense to have a separate thread for it given the fact that IV:A got it’s own thread.

I keep checking and rechecking Steam (I hate how Steam’s release timer doesn’t take minutes into account, it always rounds down, so it says 2 hours :negative:), like that’s somehow going to get the game to release faster.

Re-release or "definitive version with new content"? I don't know. I have been trying to avoid any spoilers so I'll leave it to you all to decide if VV is a "new" game and deserves a fresh thread or not.


At this point I'll problem dismiss myself from this thread until things cool down.


Check this spoiler for a download that might expire.

This game looks so fucking good in 4K.

And runs at 144hz too! Cutscenes and menus are @ 60hz.

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Beat the first boss and met vengeance waifu. Hard is decent so far, i need to engage in push turn system even in regular encounters. I hope the curve stays more or less the same. Game looks excellent and honestly seeing demons roaming the world in an accurate size scale is so awesome.

innate skills are good. I remember similar system in persona 5 royal but there are more variety so far like my slime has skill that give accuracy bonus against foes with affliction. I was beaten by the first boss because my attack missed once, but i was able to prevent unlucky roll with the accuracy bonus from its innate skill. The battle system is gonna be awesome as long as they keep the curve balanced.

Damn, they removed the original game from the Switch store. It's not even possible to buy or download any of the DLC even if you own a physical copy.

I like how all the little improvements are apparent right away, but Jesus Christ do they really give you +3 attributes each time you have a chat with Aogami. It'll be interesting to see how this balances out once you get out of the first da'at.

Mostly after important main story advancements (for example killing Hydra).

Uh, yeah? I've beaten the Hydra and already have 6 extra attributes. That's a shitload of power creep.

Barely started it, playing on Hard.

Game is very deadly so far, but I'm even using early CC spells on fights which is a good sign, lets see how far we go!
