"Stuff it, sponge brain!"
Not sure if there was a thread for this. Not very hyped for it because it looks 90% generic anime 10% Fire Emblem. At least I saw Ephraim.
 
Re: Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem

You haven't played a Shin Megami Tensei game before?

I mean, I haven't either, but I watched my brother play something similar to that style, Persona 3. Don't know how you can say it's 90% generic anime that way...
 
Re: Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem

No but I've seen it's style. It's supposed to be about demons and it's overall very dark. I would say it doesn't look like either of them at all. When I heard about this I thought it would be awesome. This just looks as generic as hell.
 
Re: Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem

It looks generic from an Atlus standpoint. Honestly, when I saw the first trailer for it, I thought it was Persona. SMT are much darker games than this looks to be, with all the fluffy anime and pop music, although I am kinda missing seeing the demons from SMT. Maybe they'll show more in the future, or maybe they're not using that mechanic for this game.

persona series isnt really that dark at all.

If they aim for megami tensei and shin megami tensei though, it will be dark. Although to say something is generic anime is pretty ignorant, dont judge things you know nothing about, kid.

Of course I know nothing about the game. But based on the trailer, it looked pretty generic.



I would say it's about 10% Fire Emblem because the only characters I regconized were Tiki, Chrom (but it barely looked like him) and Ephraim. I could probably find more if I payed closer attention, but as of right now this isn't selling me.
 
Re: Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem

well if they're just going for persona then meh

like the series

but 3 and 4 combined dont have anything on nocturne or the devil survivor games

and btw persona is a smt series
 
Re: Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem

I watched the trailer again and I saw Caeda/Shiida and Cain (but barely regconizable).
 
Re: Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem

I don't know, it seems to me that you're labeling characters you don't recognize as "generic".
 
Re: Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem

It's not the characters that make me feel that way though. It's the vibe I get from it. How do two series, one about war and the other being about demons combine into anime girls singing? It doesn't feel like a crossover between the two franchises, but rather a completely unrelated. If I hadn't seen the title and a few characters I wouldn't have even known it was SMT x FE. Maybe I'm disappointed because it's nothing like I expected.

I feel like you're just basing these from gut feeling and perhaps it's not what you expected. Just remember that Atlus doesn't release a lot of information for their games, generally, if I'm correct.
