P4G on Vita was my first Atlus game - while P5R is my favorite Persona game (and one of my all-time favorite games), I find the P4G cast to be the most cozy.
Omg dude you are amazing, thank you so much for showing me you can actually even defeat bigger enemies in real time not just weaker enemies I am even more hyped for the game now!!! Cuz nobody showed you can actually do that, but glad you did now I am so excited this gonna make dungeons so fun to explore.
Thanks for the info. I saw a gameplay video on Gamespot's channel showing the first boss fight and it felt kinda boring and I thought it'll quickly get too easy and repetitive. But thanks to you I understand there's more depth to the combat than I had originally thought. Btw in terms of charaters' relationship, can you romance characters here? I remember it was possible in Persona 5.
God, there's just so much in this game, I hope I enjoy it enough to NG+ it, because I'm gonna need the extra playthrough to really dig into everything. My first Atlus game was P4G.
I'm very excited for this game, I've been waiting for years ever since their weird trailers. Frankly, the only gripe I have is the choice of no romance, because it just bugs me out that there will be bonds you can level up but never get past friendzone x)
10/10 menu swag - can’t wait to see a new IP, feels like we so rarely see them, especially from non-FromSoft developers first Persona game was 3, still have the PS2 steelbook in my office
Inb4, Regicide difficulty DOES make it a gameover if the MC is defeated Everything about Metaphor is exactly what I envisioned *A medieval Persona* High school setting does get boring after 5~7 games 😅
Man this sure seems like a Persona game. Fine by me; it:s different enough to be it's own thing. For people who want something that breaks away from the Persona/SMT formula are going to be disapointed
The menus are a 1/10 to me 😅 they are way too busy. Though I'm not a fan of the busy UI I'm still looking forward to this game. I hope their are options to minimize the turn based UI animations and remove that Squad prompt on the character.
Very excited and really hoping this comes to the Switch 2 (as per the leaks). In my opinion, these games are best on handheld and on the go. I'm sure it'll be perfect on Steam Deck. My first persona was Persona 4 Golden on Vita. From there I went back to Persona 3 and then Persona 5 at launch.
I'm not sure how I feel about not having to do turn base combat. In my opinion that is the best part of these games. People like myself will always take the quickest patch which is avoiding the turn base combat and will get boring.
I mean, you could say the same thing about Elden Ring and the dark souls franchise, but it was still an amazing game. And no, if you actually pay attention this isnt a reskin. This game seems vastly different than persona imo
@TheMasterwitcher true, there is turn based combat, but there is also the new addition of real time, action-based combat. Also when it comes to the turn based combat, now all party members can change their "forms". No more "summoning" to fight enemies. As for the art style, I'd gladly take any game that looks this good, so it's not a negative for me. Game Studios have styles and I honestly wish more games looked as good as this one. As for the story, it seems vastly different than your average Persona title. There also appears to be branching paths to some degree, and the story seems to have more depth than the other series. I've watched just about every bit of trailers and reviews for this game and I can say with high certainty that this game will surpass the initial thoughts of it being "a reskin". Just because a game has some features that are present in other games that the studio made, doesn't make it bad. Pretty much every single developer does this to various degrees
There is also the fact that the combat is more SMT based, at least the bases because they know if they integrated smirk in this game would be deluxe hard@@TheMasterwitcher
It's feeling more and more like a mobile game with Auto combat and the action combat to avoid turn based combat. I have a hunch this will get boring after a few hours.
Before playing metaphor know this….. I will be skipping every cut scene and ounce of dialogue to get to the gameplay in the grind like I do every atlus game.
@@punani_slayer4209 this game would be big in scale regardless, but in more capable developer, the size prolly could be just 40 gigs. Lol. Yes this game looks very ps3. Its a shame they didnt switch to Unreal when they started working on this project in 2017. Persona 3 remake was made on 2019 using unreal, it looks so much better than this
*What was your VERY FIRST Atlus game? Mine was actually Persona 4!* -BoomstickAlex
Persona 4 on Steam. Then P5R and I haven't beat yet P3 Reload, but I am very close. Both on PS5
P4G on Vita was my first Atlus game - while P5R is my favorite Persona game (and one of my all-time favorite games), I find the P4G cast to be the most cozy.
My first Atlus game was SMT III Nocturne on the PS2. What an amazing game, I'm getting nostalgic just thinking back on it.
My first and favorite Atlus game is and always will be soul hackers 2
Persona 2 Innocent Sin
My first Atlas game was Persona 3 FES. I found it on the PlayStation store and spent my whole summer just addicted to that game
Can't wait for those 10/10 menus!
Damn, this game is sounding more and more like it'll be my game of the decade and it's not even out yet. Eating this hype by the bowlful
i need some 10/10 menus in my life pls
Omg dude you are amazing, thank you so much for showing me you can actually even defeat bigger enemies in real time not just weaker enemies I am even more hyped for the game now!!!

I think this is the game that I'm most hyped for this year. I love JRPG and can't wait to play it when releases.
Excited for the game, just worried about Atlus' business model of re-releases and not wanting to ppay full price for the game twice
I think they will go with the persona 3 reload dlc path.
They have changed their bussiness model as seen with P3R
Aww this is sick I accidentally clicked the notification of the video and looked down, I thought this was a new persona! Buying this forsure
Wait a minute, Tarukaja was in the skill list, this is so much Persona/SMT inspired and I like it haha
Persona 4 too was my first and till this day my favorite. I cant wait for a remake like they did with 3. I need itttt
Ok, based on your insight this is going to be my first Atlas game. I've been on the fence since Veilguard also drops next month.
Super hyped for this game. I've never played an atlus title before this will be my first 😂
Thanks for the info. I saw a gameplay video on Gamespot's channel showing the first boss fight and it felt kinda boring and I thought it'll quickly get too easy and repetitive.
But thanks to you I understand there's more depth to the combat than I had originally thought.

No romancing in Metaphor
Damn, still playing SMT, didn't even touch Reload, but this looks amazing.
Reload is one of my favorite game's from 2024. It's ALMOST Persona 6
@@BoomstickGamingit really isn't. Other than the improved visuals it's mostly a step back from persona 5
God, there's just so much in this game, I hope I enjoy it enough to NG+ it, because I'm gonna need the extra playthrough to really dig into everything.
My first Atlus game was P4G.
How was the performance? Being an Atlus game, I imagine it runs pretty well.
I love games with job classes and this one has over 40 with job class fusion I cant wait
I think my first one was Digital Devil Saga
I'll wait for the complete version next year. Royal/Golden/FES style.
You know it’s going to happen lol
I'm very excited for this game, I've been waiting for years ever since their weird trailers. Frankly, the only gripe I have is the choice of no romance, because it just bugs me out that there will be bonds you can level up but never get past friendzone x)
My first was Persona 4: Golden on Vita.
10/10 menu swag - can’t wait to see a new IP, feels like we so rarely see them, especially from non-FromSoft developers
first Persona game was 3, still have the PS2 steelbook in my office
8/10 menus.
you gotta back that up. What's a 10/10 game menu then?
Game looks amazing but I just wanna know what portion of the game will and won’t be voiced. I hope social links are voiced
Inb4, Regicide difficulty DOES make it a gameover if the MC is defeated
Everything about Metaphor is exactly what I envisioned *A medieval Persona* High school setting does get boring after 5~7 games 😅
Great vid
where was regicide confirmed ng+? I wish hard is hard enough if so... feels like hard is "normal" nowadays
No Insta-Game Over when the protagonist drops? I already like this more than Persona. :D
10/10 Menus
Is the calendar system as restrictive as persona? Most people wouldn’t be able to 100% persona on their first try
10 out of 10 menus ^_^
Feel good
With how undercooked Persona 3 Reload was, i'm happy this game looks like it's going to be a smash hit.
Undercooked LOL…..
The time limit stuff for the main story seems like it would make me feel like I'm going to mess it up.
This is just the kuro no keseki combat formula
Excatly. Not sure why everyone is acting like Atlus were the ones who came up with it. xD
Never heard of em tbh. Gonna check them out now
@@redoredo107 Legend of Heroes Trails Through Daybreak
10/10 menus!
Thanks for the video, Alex. This and Plucky Squire are my most-anticipated games this fall!
10/10 menu. And Catherine & Dragons Crown was my first Atlus games. Thanks for the video!
Man this sure seems like a Persona game. Fine by me; it:s different enough to be it's own thing. For people who want something that breaks away from the Persona/SMT formula are going to be disapointed
I wonder what the name will be when the game is rereleased in 2 years
Persona 3 ❤
Ah, the 10/10 menus are balm to my wounded soul from the bland 7/10 menus that are all the rage these days
The menus are a 1/10 to me 😅 they are way too busy. Though I'm not a fan of the busy UI I'm still looking forward to this game.
I hope their are options to minimize the turn based UI animations and remove that Squad prompt on the character.
Great vegetables!
This game is look so good but i hate atlus re release strategy. So i think i will just buy offline accounts. So sad they don’t just release a dlc
Very excited and really hoping this comes to the Switch 2 (as per the leaks). In my opinion, these games are best on handheld and on the go. I'm sure it'll be perfect on Steam Deck. My first persona was Persona 4 Golden on Vita. From there I went back to Persona 3 and then Persona 5 at launch.
This game is also available in PS4/PS5 and PC. No need to buy an Xbox.
its release is still so far away :(
10/10 MENUS

late fish
Isnt this just the reskin of persona or vice versa???

Whats the point then
@@safatimtiaz6641 gameplay is the point.
The real time combat is super disappointing to me. I play Atlus games for turn based stuff.
This game takes up over 95GB of space that's more than double the size of persona 5 royal edition. This game is gonna be huge
Sometimes it only because theyre using old engine which makes the files become heavier than it should be & poorly optimized.
@@hmmmm6157 yeah atlus has always been lazy when it comes to optimization. This game looks like it can run on the ps3 easily
@@punani_slayer4209 this game would be big in scale regardless, but in more capable developer, the size prolly could be just 40 gigs. Lol.

Hate persona but this looks great.
My first atlus game wasn't persona or smt it was "Luminous Arc"
