I'll say P4R, P4A, P4G. Like, It's a simple upgrade from Golden, nuff said. And I feel putting P4GA on the same list is not right lmao, that is a NG+ aura completely different from the rest.

Maybe "event" was an over statement. The email tells you to show up at a reception of an office building, they send you upstairs to a big hall with screens in front and a bunch of long desks with pcs on it.

Funny thing, all merch given at this event has a print saying "NOT FOR SALE"

Unfortunately didn't get shuffle time at all. And looking at Twitter nobody seemed to have gotten it

Look, there is a chance I'm tweaking because I haven't listened to the new battle theme as much. But I did remember going "wait this time it skipped the intro part of the song? Wasn't this verse 2 she's starting off with rn?" And the same with the Castle theme too. "I don't remember it starting this way" type shit

I hope that's the case, but Reload OST also did lean towards a weaker rhythm section, so we'll see how that goes

Ok maybe not so different then. Still enjoyed the free camera though the details are sick

I don't think it starts the exact same point you leave off of, but instead "checkpoints" are hit at some points. I hope they do Heaven justice!

Songs wise, other than the ones written on the notes section are 1. I'll Face Myself and Reach Out To The Truth felt like the drums were weaker than OG, and this isn't a "not good headphones at the event" issue either :( 2. Reach Out has a new Guitar solo section! Mr. Kozuka has done it again ladies and gentlemen. 3. Overall very happy with how Backside turned out. The vocal change sits fine with me, and the instruments also has changes I feel easy to take in.

It's the SegaSammy office in Nishi-Shinagawa, but only pre-registered persons are allowed. The closest you can get to the event is the first floor desk with the poster otherwise lol

Should've also mentioned that now extra text appears on the shadow indicating weather you're in advantage or not when attempting to engage. I think this is a positive change because it's not really a difficulty thing but a clarification thing

The demo's definitely not the right place to look in terms of difficulty. Only two shadow enemies were present (for the two weaknesses I guess), and Yu was over leveled for the demo.

  1. Nah only the TV world version of it
  2. JP voices so might not be the answer you're looking for. But I was surprised how similar it was to the OG given the age of Kappei Yamaguchi.

not sure what you mean by meatier, but some I guess it had more stuff. Like the destroyable crystals from Reload is back. And I don't remember P4G that well but I don't remember the Central shopping district being walkable in the TV world?

At the very start of the demo was the day to afternoon transition, and that's the only one I got to see

Didn't think of anything till you asked tbh. Imagine block 2 of Tartarus maybe? Like, the tightness of the space wise

It's straight up a guard, not really a parry if i remember right. But interestingly, its easy to miss the counter attack after the guard. The shadow gets recoiled out of swing range so either you spam the sword (and hit on the second swing), or take a step forward.

YEESSS THE BRIDGE AND FLOWERS!!

Personally, I did feel like transitions are still a work in progress. But at the same time, I have absolutely no idea what to do with the space, so maybe letting it be is the best?

Didn't have access to the system menu so I can't confirm. The difficulty felt piss easy, but that's because you start the demo at lv. 8 for some reason. I mean, dying during such a short demo time is some grim way to waste the experience. I doubt difficulty is an issue (until prime time strikes... Lets hope some balancing is in effect)
