Well, that trailer looks very promising. Really interested how the themes of the game will be played out.

"We are seeking for a new mythology." That kinda directly reminded me of the psychologist called Rollo May, especially his book called "The Cry For Myth". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cry_for_Myth

@MegaTen I'm guessing that means they're breaking away from the mythological focus of IV/Apocalypse. Although any in-game dialogue relating to humanity's need for belonging and how it adopts...

@Ralizah I think so too. I love games that deal with more mature themes. It's the reason why I regard this series among the best. They probably want us to create our own mythos within the game by...

@MegaTen The game will have a fantastic OST. Pretty much everything developed by Atlus in the last few years has had amazing music. I'm hoping this game goes back to the mystery and eerieness of the...

@Ralizah Yeah, that's indeed still amazing. I was pleasantly surprised Kazuyuki Yamai mentioned Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne in the interview with Famitsu (claiming they are aiming for the game's...

@MegaTen That was a pretty decent write-up. Nuclear fears are definitely at the heart of SMTI, with the demon riddled apocalypse being symbolic of everything that is lost to such violence. In that...

@MegaTen Well, thanks for that! Now I'm even more excited to get stuck into SMTV; I love a game with ambition.

@Ralizah Exactly, that's a nice comparison. I wonder what the significance is of the rose petals. In the first teaser they wen't really a substitute for blood. They may be the (obvious) symbol for life...

Happy birthday SMT!! Also, isn't Megami Tensei itself around 30 now, as in the original? And having just finished SMT 1, it'd be nice to get it on Switch. Or SMT 2 officially released in NA.

That's right, the original Megami Tensei title (as part of a duology) turned 30 years old this year. The Famicom version turned 30 on September 11. That wasn't the first version, as it was released...

@MegaTen That's why I haven't updated my phone ;) And I'd love to have SMT 2 on 3DS even instead of having to emulate. And I have Kyuuyaku Megami Tensei as my next in line after I beat SMT 2.

@xPH03N1Xx86 That's good to hear (you still being able to enjoy the game). :p And I agree. Would love to see a compilation on Switch...or anything, basically. I do own the first two games, for the Game...

Back on topic though, when was the Famitsu issue that had SMT V details going to come out?

@xPH03N1Xx86 Heh, that's cool. Very nice and fitting. :p The Famitsu was on the shelves a day after the reveal of second teaser (October 24). There's a lot more that was translated, just a couple of...
