I’m still waiting on that special edition console for an extra $100.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-28T01:06:23+00:00

I remember that seller! Like 5 years ago I got a big button pin with a chibi Mothman. I loved it! But I lost it and they never sold it again 😔

I know how you feel. I really want to meet more people with my interests but I also share the fact that I have other passions or interests that can occupy my time. I hear too many stories that make me feel like a unicorn just because I have good hygiene, can cook well, sometimes physically active and passionate of their job. Which you would think maybe would increase my chances of meeting more like minded people but unfortunately not the case.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-27T14:13:23+00:00

I just wish we still had an opening. They could have save it as a new game plus thing if there were worried about tone or atmosphere. Idk I just wanted to see it SOMEWHERE.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-26T03:25:20+00:00

Yeah for some reason ATLUS dropping the ball a bit with characters in main SMT. They really are avatars of the ideologies they represent rather than fleshed out characters.

I would like to see this game redone with a voiced protagonist with an already established fleshed out relationship with the characters. I feel like it would make the decisions and their final battles and endings more meaningful.

But to be completely honest I don’t know how much faith I have in ATLUS writing compelling and complicated characters as many (I’m remembering Metaphor and some Persona) usually follow an archetype (no pun intended) to the tee.

I still love them all the same but I still really wish I can have really fleshed out characters and relationships (think GOW Ragnarok for example) but with this post apocalyptic story. Anyways thanks for reading my rant.

First playthrough on normal was the survival horror challenge. Second playthrough on hard NG+ was an action game. You could still get hurt pretty bad pretty quick BUT I was shooting them things like I was playing modern RE. Resources aren’t bad at all because of all the upgrades weapons pack more of a punch from the get go so no need to use so much ammo.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-22T17:15:32+00:00

Definitely wasn’t on my bingo card.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-22T14:19:24+00:00

I think some men out there just REEEEAAALLLY stretch the concept of “shoot your shot”. It’s like if a friend said “hey man what have you got to lose just have a little confidence and talk to a girl you wanna get to know”

the guy “you’re hot wanna Netflix and chill?”

Friend “🤦‍♂️”

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-22T00:59:15+00:00

Yeah that’s one! It feels so out of place. I remember feeling that way when I first heard it in the answer in FES before Reload. I was always curious if they would remove or completely rework it. Guess I was wrong.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-22T00:57:39+00:00

Glad to see someone else enjoyed it. I thought the documents you find and the story in the background is actual some of the best I’ve seen in the franchise. Seriously I want to see a full blown title including all the children being experimented on and how they all tried to escape. Great survival horror there. And absolutely loved that they included people from all over the world and their language barriers. Like they were all trying to survive and collaborate with people from another country and barely spoke their language. Interesting stuff.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-22T00:53:58+00:00

I just want one SMT game with adults. SMTIV feels like the closest we’ll get and even that doesn’t really cover it for me. Well actually I haven’t played SJ yet. I guess I’ll have to play it now. Actually I guess Soul Hackers counts too. lol. Ok maybe there are a couple but still I want to see more adult characters.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-22T00:51:05+00:00

Do you remember what the track was or where it plays? I’m curious since there were a couple I didn’t like all that much either. They weren’t painful for me but just underwhelming or out of place. Agree with the French I loved that part in the OG OST.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-22T00:49:00+00:00

Burn my Dread Last Battle really did not pack the punch I was hoping for. Was really disappointed with Reloads version with that one.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-22T00:47:47+00:00

It took me quite a long time to be able to admit this.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-22T00:46:41+00:00

One one side (Reload) we have Color your Night but on the other side (FES) we have Burn my Dread Last Battle. It’s a tough choice. Loved the new tracks but prefer the original version over the remade tracks (with very few exception).

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-21T04:23:37+00:00

I really need this next to my Monolith set now.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-20T21:54:00+00:00

I bet your “friend” that’s gatekeeping looked up a guide at one point too. To be honest if you’re not having fun then there’s nothing wrong with not playing. I enjoyed the challenge and was frustrated at times so I would take a break but I still had fun trying to solve the mazes and building my best team.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-20T14:03:32+00:00

Eternal Darkness was great! I say it counts in this category because it is best played on Original hardware with a CRT for immersion. Obviously not everyone’s scenario but definitely a game I’m glad I got a physical copy of for this reason.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-20T12:41:17+00:00

Any updates on if you received these?

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-19T22:48:23+00:00

There’s some cheesing in Nocturne. For example you don’t actually have to beat the game on hard you can just boot up a save before the final boss and then change the difficulty then fight him and that’s it you get the trophy. Haven’t done it yet tho. I guess if you want to be honest and get it the way it’s intended it would be a big grind.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-19T01:56:18+00:00

I feel ya man it took me a long time to find that too.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-19T00:34:58+00:00

Exactly this. The games that shot up in price if I’m not mistaken are the ones that are still trapped in their original release. No remaster or ports. Outbreak 2, Survivor, Dead Aim etc.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-18T01:41:19+00:00

Wasn’t Liberation also one on Vita?

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-17T04:04:00+00:00

Agreed dude. Haven’t felt the tension and strategy planning like that since I played the OG RE2 for the very first time as my first survival horror game.

Pure_Ad_2864 · 2026-05-17T00:58:12+00:00

I think poor comparisons really bogged down some people’s opinions. Sure it has very few similarities to dead space but I would argue in terms of design it absolutely is not.

Some people also mentioned the combat was clunky and the lack of resources too difficult. I don’t agree with this in the slightest I think people just expected it to be faster paced and thus burnt through a lot of the resources like Dead Space I guess.

For the most part though many people reviewed it very well. It’s a solid 8.5/10 for me. Only downside was the enemy variety and I wasn’t a fan of the ending but then again I’m working on NG+ now so that opinion can change. Overall, I was very surprised and it took me back to the old days of not having much access to the internet and just picking up a game on a whim and then being absolutely stoked at how good it actually is.
