That feel when there are multiple pathes and you happen to choose the one that progress locks you first.
This game is incredible though. I feel like the story in this is significantly more intriguing compared to previous Vanillware games.
Not to say they're bad, but it feels like there is a much stronger focus on story and characters.

Man just when I think i got it figured out and just call out some bullshit idea only for it to actually be the thing is such a BWWWAHHHHH moment for me. I haven't had this many since VLR in a good way. Its been a while since ive had a good Visual Novel to sink my teeth into.
Beat the final battle on Intense with a D. I'll take it. Spent almost 2hrs reading the Mystery Files after the ending to fully digest wtf just happened. See you all on the other side.
That's when you unlock an additional type of upgrades for your Sentinels. To access them, bring up the Customize menu with Triangle before a battle, then press Left on the D-Pad to the Sentinel Upgrade tab. You'll see some stat-based upgrades for each character's sentinel there.
How deep has everyone gotten into the battle system? I never used the system to upgrade my raw stats much after putting a point into the stat that says decreases brain overload and it definitely did not do that. I primarily spent my points on first the terminal upgrades and then unlocking/enhancing skills.
The interaction between Miura and Hijiyama about Hemborg vs Yakisoba Pan as the greatest foods ever conceived was the best. Hijiyama also has another great line about it after one of the Area 3 battles that made me laugh as well. I love this game's writing so much. Atlus did a great job with the localization too.
If you put 2 points in that it lets you do 3 battles from fresh with a character. It takes a lot to effect it more though
😆
That could literally be in response to any one of at least 50 different story beats in this game.
Oh dammit, it needed 2pts?? Yeah, I just wanted to minimum amt of investment to make it 3 battles. Argh.
For real. How did they manage to write a story, where every 15 minutes has a shocking twist or moment. It's insane.
I started Iori's story and it surprise me how much different the "progression" is for her than for Juro. I wonder if each character will have their own gimmick, and if this is consistent from the start until the end.
It's not to much that characters' stories all have a central gimmick, but they do all have a distinct atmosphere from each other to some extent. And some do have a kind of structure or mechanic unique to themselves, although it doesn't always run through the entire course of their stories.
What does the game mean by armaments is that each characters skill? I maxed out the terminal.. please help lol
Or when Tomi gets mad at Ogata lol
For the trophy? I think you need to unlock all the terminal stuff and unlock every piece of equipment on each character
I gotta do a lot of combat missions tonight if I want to really progress at this point. The Combat is fun for a bit, but I just don't think it has enough depth to make me want to grind them out. I have no choice though, cause I really want to see how this all ends.
Okay the event archive not letting you play some section fully is quite bad... like i couldn't replay the very first part of ogata in the train station
and you also can't rewatch the dreams and flashback (like when you get the option to recall something and so on)... Like i can't rewatch Shu's dream about the future...

You sure dreams/flashbacks just aren't their own separate scenes in the event viewer?
Things you're getting rated for are listed at the end of the fight!
ok, i'm not currently at the end of a fight, what are those things? or is it different every fight?
Can anyone who bought the game from Amazon or Best Buy after the release date verify if their copy still came with the artbook?
Thank you in advance to anyone who responds.

So I caved and bought this and it's way better than I expected, but damn if I'm not confused as hell right now. Still in the character prologues (and have actually been playing for a decent amount of time, how long is this game anyway?)
Not near the game now but the things I remember are the damage you, the terminal and the city take are main factors but there's also a combo counter thing and how many enemies you defeated. Dunno if time is a factor, but "finish in under ... seconds" is a bonus objective in a lot of missions. I th
Very true. I really like the way they do it in this game. They know when and how to do them.
I am really close to making this my GOTY now. Doom Eternal, Ghost of Tsushima were fighting it out but now this game comes and added a twist to that fight.
yea those three are listed last and separated from the score, wish the game were a little more clear on what's what, but keeping everything low seems to do the trick, thanks
Oh, if you're confused during the prologues then buckle up for a wild ride. You ain't seen NOTHING yet, believe you me.
Haven't started up the game yet, but no-spoilers, to those who played it: is the story as great as you expected it to be?
It's one of the craziest stories I've encountered in a game.
Wow I feel dumb now. I got the 30-S Rank trophy so for some reason I thought I S-ranked every stage, but turns out I was missing an S rank on the final level. Thanks for the help. Feels nice getting that trophy.
i expected something pretty great familiar like a Persona-ish game with pretty backgrounds, but got something completely different and one of the best game stories in a long time for me, with sick arcady turnbased gameplay and great OST
Yeah it's very good. If you've played a lot of Visual novels you'll see a lot of the twists coming but it's rare that they are done so well. And obviously the presentation is way above most VNs.
OST is great. Can anyone list all of the battle related tracks? Was looking for the area 02 or maybe area 03 track?
Story is bonkers and tropey as hell but I'm loving it.

3-6 on Intense is the most hilariously excessive frame rate plunge I've seen in a PS4 game, but that fight really sells the scope of battles that is allowed by going with the abstract strategic view map.
what influences the first turn? does the cpu always go first? i'm not fond of starting out with a few units at half health before i even get a chance to do anything
Nobody answered this yet, but... it is an RTS. You select your units with L1 and R1.
You'd have to elaborate on what parts you're not feeling. A lot of the characters come from various different perspectives but there's an overall plot that connects everything together.
Were you aware of the game basically being a visual novel going into it? If you're saying you aren't feeling the combat portions of the game, then I'd say that maybe 5 hours tops of the 30 hours this game lasts are dedicated to the combat stuff. It's very largely about the story and how it unfolds.
The story starts off really confusing, disjointed, and frankly quite intimidating. And I think that some of the best characters are not the frontloaded ones. Maybe give it a bit?
How much did you pay for this game where you're thinking of shelving it 1/3 through the tutorial?
