You will absolutely love Nocturne! It's my favorite JRPG of all time!
Some tips, since your videos have really helped me a lot and many find the game to be quite hard:
1. Buffs and debuffs can be stacked up to 4 times. Don't be afraid to spam these all the time, especially against bosses. You live and die based on your ability to buff, debuff and remove negative buffs and debuffs.
2. You're encouraged to attack weaknesses with magic, or critting with physical attacks, as both of these essentially give you an extra press turn to use. The press turn battle system is incredible.
3. Equipping magatamas change your strengths and weaknesses just like changing a persona, but it's also how you learn new skills.
4. A strength build is optimal, sprinkling in some endurance, agility and luck wherever you see fit. You can raise magic and it is good, but it falls off and loses out to physical late game.
5. Matador is a common early boss that is raged about on forums. He can easily be defeated by equipping the Hifumi magatama for the ability to null force and learn fog breath, an incredibly potent skill that acts as an all-enemies sukunda x2 for the cost of one press turn. If you still struggle, fuse Uzume. The Hifumi magatama can be purchased in the underground city before reaching Matador and is nearly impossible to miss.
Oh thank you, I'm sure this will come in handy a lot :D I hope I get to play it ^__^
I love when people get to revisit their favorite games in improved and updated versions. That combination of nostalgia and quality is pure magic. I'm definitely interested in Poison Control as well, so many new JRPGs this year and it's only going to get busier.
The only JRPG I played in April was Crystar.
I already finished Ys: The Oath in Felghana this month and I´m currently playing Atelier Totori and Bravely Default II.
I finally started Persona 5 Strikers! Been enjoying it so far.
I've been playing Nier Replicant ver.too many numbers and I'm loving it the story and music is sooo good
Fun fact: the numbers are the square root of 1.5
Playing Fairy Fencer F😌
Been playing through Trails of cold steel 4 and just finished Disgaea 5
warning, firis is surprisingly large, especially if you want the true ending. it can be a massive time-suck. doesn't mean it's bad, but more than any other atelier, it felt like it was a nearly endless open world like skyrim or something, with no ending in sight as you just run from quest to quest. bizarrely, it's also the only atelier i've played where you beat the normal ending and you have only half, maybe, of the recipes. and some were missable. that's an incredibly different pacing than every other one.
I really liked Poison Control. Like you said it was kind of a great stress reliever. Addictive!
Currently playing Crystar, Sophie, Gravity rush 2 and Death end request lol
i also played poison control, based on your review and a couple others. it was enjoyable. a few flaws, but overall unique and fun. a few levels were too long, and one or two hidden items are super difficult to find, and they really should let you jump in to snag an item and then leave and keep your progress rather than requiring you to finish the whole level. the platinum's grindy, i stopped working for it when i found that i'd have to play every level over again due to the fact that there's a unique secondary gun in almost every level, but you have to go in without one armed at all in order to pick it up. i wish i knew that at the beginning, as that's kinda discouraging to have to grind out.
In April I played the non human path of Radiata Stories. I want to go back to the split and do the human path before I review it.
This month I have been playing Tales of Xillia 2 and I'm already up to chapter 11. It's quite enjoyable but re uses a lot of stuff from the original.
I'm also starting the Mass Effect trilogy yet again tomorrow with the remasters, and I'm eyeing up a copy of The Alliance Alive HD Remastered which just arrived today, but I want to resist starting it until I'm done with everything else.
The more you talk about Atelier and Poison Control, the more it makes me want to dive into them sometime soon! This month has been mostly a Yoko Taro ride for me, as I have been playing the new Nier Replicant as well as going back to Drakengard for a bit to sort out my feelings about that game. I highly recommend Nocturne when it releases. I may not get this remaster for a while because I still have a working ps2 and the original game, but I'm very curious to hear your thoughts about it since you are coming to it from Persona like I did when I first played.
Right now I'm playing the Dusk trilogy, I will start E&L soon (I also saw your reviews from the games and the're great), and once I'm done with it I will move on with the Misteryous trilogy, now I'm a fan of the saga as well, they are entertaining games. Besides I've played 5-6 SMT games, apart from the Persona games, and most of the times they have a good script and combat systems. I'd say it's my favourite videogames saga. I'm looking forward to SMT III as well since I haven't played it either.
i am playing like 4 jrpg's at the same time, alternating between them: Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky FC, Advent Dark Force: Fairy Fencer F, Final Fantasy V and Phantasy Star IV(the latter one on Retroarch using a Sega Genesis Emulator) I really want to play the Atelier games cause of waifus and they look so much fun! I just need to upgrade my graphics card since I am planning to get them for PC XD
I subbed to you last month and binged through your entire series for what you have played in X and Y month. It has been so fun to catch up with the games you play. It feels like your own person game vlog/diary. Cheers to many more💖
Ahhh that's so cool you binged it :'D thank you! 💖
Oh wow, I didn't know the Blue Reflection anime was already going! For some reason I thought it was starting next season.
For April, it wasn't much new for me, I've mostly been working on the same games I was playing in March, Wild ARMs 5, Shining Resonance and Re:Chain of Memories. April (and the first part of May) have been pretty hectic, so I haven't had as much time for games as I would like ;~;
But for May, I'm gonna try to power through and finish at least one of these, especially since the explosion of games coming out over the summer (Disgaea 6, Great Ace Attorney, NEO TWEWY, NIS Classics Collection, Scarlet Nexus, Tales of Arise) is just going to cause my backlog to inflate to even more ridiculous proportions xD
I finished Lydie and Sue on switch and I bought all atelier games on switch and I am glad that I bought Lydie and sue twice because they are so great (:
But I haven't finished Lydie and Sue dx yet 🤔
I remember playing the trilogy on vita and ps4
I'm currently playing Sophie DX and I love it so far.
I wanna finish it before I go to Firis, but I know I'll love that one too.
On what system did you pick it up on? I'm playing Sophie DX on the Switch it's not bad but it's not great either: frame drops, and texture glitches here and their. Also heads up Firis has a time limit, pro tip synthesizing an item counts as resting. Or at least it was like that in the original...
Smt 3 Nocturne remaster is a must for me soon (never played an smt game) but need to try some of the Atelier games, will probably start with Ryza because your reviews have just sold me on it lol finishing cold steel 4 first though, great video as always!
I'm starting to tone down the amount of games i play to focus on other hobbies like writing/anime but this month I cleared: Blue Reflection,
Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters, Ape Escape 3 and Nier Replicant and oh boy Nier was a trip to revisit. May Plans are just Mass Effect Legendary Edition for me, waiting for June to come
Another great video. I've been playing Sophie DX of late; my trilogy pack came later than I thought so I couldn't play it in April. I'm finding revisiting the game refreshing since it was my first Atelier; the new content added gives more backstory on her grandmother which made the opening of the game much more enjoyable. On another note I'm up to date with 'Blue Reflection Ray' and after episode 5 I'm itching to see what happens next, before than I felt it kind of lulled a bit. Still good though. Also heads up: Atelier Firis has a time limit, pro tip synthesizing an item counts as resting. Or at least it was like that in the original...
It’s still like that in Firis, yeah :) I try to synthesize instead of resting everytime, I think I’m okay for the time limit so far but I’m also getting close to having -100 days left (20 hours in), so starting to get a little nervous lol but it’s a very interesting game so far :) and yes, I liked all the costume/grandma relayed content in Sophie too :) really fun game ^_^
@@JRPGJungle That's good to hear, that Gust kept that in. Let's see at the 100 day mark if I remember you should've already built your boat and be about halfway to the city where the exam is...
I finished Ni No Kuni 2 yesterday. I think I'm going to start the Caligula effect overdose next, I picked it up last week during the golden week sale.
Great video, I'm thinking about getting the atelier mysterious trilogy dx games for the nintendo switch, all three of them look really good. I'm also interested in the poison control game for the nintendo switch too. I'm also thinking about buying nelke and the legendary alchemists when it's on sale for the nintendo switch too. ^_^
Great video! I recently finished both Shin Megami Tensei 4, so I'm very excited for the Nocturne remake. Also, after finishing NieR Replicant I really want to replay NieR:Automata, which I will likely start playing very soon. I've also been playing Monster Hunter Stories, it is a great spin-off if you like monster collecting games. As for the anime you mentioned, I am watching TWEWY and I am liking it a lot. I personally couldn't get into the Switch version as neither the touchscreen nor the motion controls clicked with me and I dropped the game, so I am exciting to experience the story and characters through the anime version :) if I get time, I'll continue playing the Kingdom Hearts games for the first time, I'm currently in Birth By Sleep and I already did one of the three routes.
Waiting on smt:n remaster...I remember it on the ps2 and it was a great game. Definitely will be all on that game when it releases.
Oh yeah and now with voice acting 😊 I played the original game with a Double Jump Book strategy guide 😎 I wish they would release the first persona 1&2 on the Switch 👍
Shin Megami Tensei has some of the greatest stories to tell, can't wait to hear your review on it!
I'm pretty new to jrpg's, only last couple years of playing them. I really enjoy the content here and feel like you cover a whole bunch of really interesting and varied titles. I'm currently playing Shining Resonance Refrain and really have fun with it!
Enjoy dude! It's an amazing genre! I highly recommend that you check out the Shin Megami Tensei series and the Fire Emblem series. Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne is receiving an HD remaster on all platforms and I cannot recommend it highly enough. SMT, Persona and Fire Emblem IMO are the top 3 gold standards for the JRPG series.
@@2bussy thanks for the suggestions! I did look into SMT a little (based on your comment), looks pretty intimidating but maybe the remaster will make things more accessible?
Loving playing through and revisiting Nier Replicant and looking forward to Scarlet Nexus next month! Putting P5 Strikers on hold was unfortunate so I need to get back to it soon"ish".
I'm taking a break from JRPGs, as I'm currently playing Lego DC Super-Villains on the Switch. I oughta revisit those Idea Factory/Compile Heart games that I started but never finished on the PS4. :) As for anime, haven't watched much lately, yet I've been reading light novels, more specifically DanMachi (aka Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?). The novels are actually pretty good -- I already finished the first two books.
I'm a new subscriber and absolutely love this channel great content. I love jrpgs
Thank you for the sub, very happy to hear you're enjoying the content :) yay JRPGs! ^__^
I played a few visual novel games and some older jrpgs like exist archive. The new ones I played are neptunia virtual stars and fallen legion revenants which sadly had a bug that kept me from being able to move forward.
Right now I'm playing Ryza 2 and gotta say for as much as I didn't like Ryza, I am enjoying Ryza 2.
Thx for the video! I did play a few hours on sophie but i think i overdose with replaying ateliers. I'm a bit sad about that cuz i love ateliers games 😓
I'm curious about nelke dlc tho.
Gonna play miitopia in 2 days, when i'm done i'll go play smt nocturne on switch. Im excited about those 2 games ( i already played xD)
if you manage to find the time , i would also recommend trying one of the famicom detective games that release tomorrow on switch. im planning to pick up one of them myself and they look pretty interesting.
wow 20k subs already. 👍 gratz and keep growing 😘
Thank you! :D
Awesome info Love your RUclips channel🦋🙂🦋
april for me was mostly trails of cold steel 4 since the pc version finally released, also of course the Atelier mysterious trilogy DX, even if i'm taking my time since thats my current stream game, currently passed the halfway point in Sophie (which I had already played in the past) but Firis and Lydie & Suelle are completely new to me! since I also got a switch recently I'm probably gonna finally play Fire Emblem three houses!
Phone game wise, the pre-registration for the Atelier phone game in english has started so i'm looking forward to that while also continying to play bang dream and the english release of D4DJ when it comes out on the 27th!
Oh yeah I also played a bit of the new mainline Touhou game!
Nice! D4DJ has a very good song library, so I hope you enjoy it! I'm too into Bang Dream to get into another rhythm game hard (I also didn't hugely love the DJ slide mechanics when I tried it in a Japanese, but I think you can customise it to be as simple or hard as you want), but the character designs are really cute :D
Also hope you enjoy Three Houses, it's fantastic (as is the Switch ^__^)
@@JRPGJungle I played a bit of the JP version when it came out but stopped to wait for the English one! it was great!
I hope you get a chance to play Scarlet Nexus next month! I already pre-ordered.
Gonna play poison control on the switch 👍
My main achievement recently was getting the platinums for both Ys 9 Monstrum Nox and Poison Control. For the me the former was the better game. Since I am on a Falcom run I then turned to a game I missed when it first came out which is Tokyo Xanadu. I also played a lot of Octopath Traveler but can't say I think that is a great game (despite the hype). Shin Megami Tensai Nocturne is definitely at the top of my list for what to play next. I feel your pain over trying to get a PS5 as I haven't been able to get one either. I did get an Xbox Series X which is keeping me busy with non JRPG games that I also play.
That's good you could at least get an Xbox Series X, I just had a look and wow they are so much more accessible than a PS5 lol well done on the platinums, I Hope to get to Ys 9 still when it comes to Switch, so good to hear it's good:))
@@JRPGJungle Guess its the relative size of of Microsoft to Sony - they can just get more chips LOL! I think you would really enjoy Ys 9!
I have been toning down my gaming to focus more on game development in the last month or so, but I've been craving a good ol' classic JRPG, so SMTN Remaster is currently on my radar, I just bought yesterday and I've been sitting on it while I get work done.
Honestly, your love for Atelier games has really piqued my interest. I want to start with Eschelle & Logy (that's the name, right?) just to ease in, but I've always preferred a more open, explorable world, and it looks like that one is separated via a world map. I dunno, what do you think? How does exploration feel in general for that Atelier title?
(Not that anyone really cares, but my father in law, who lived in Paris, France for a few years, told me Atelier is pronounced At-uh-lee-ay, and got all huffy I was pronouncing it "wrong." Now I pronounce it in every way EXCEPT the correct way just because I like a good chuckle every now and then 😁)
The Atelier games aren't ever truly open world the closest they're been is in the Ryza Games and Atelier Firis. The later has a time limit and but the Ryaz games don't. I personally prefer Firis due to the synthesizing being more in depth and Firis is a (I'll get hate for this) better protagonist overall.
I really liked Escha and Logy’s exploration just because the time limit was pretty loose, Firis is actually open world though as it’s not separated by a mini-map and is very much about exploring, but Ryza is also a great choice if you don’t like a time limit :3 depends what you like really! I really liked the gameflow of Escha and Logy though (still one of my favourites) and since you can choose which missions/quests you want to do most of the time, it feels quite free too :)
@@JRPGJungle Yeah, so I bought Atelier Escha and Logy. Really looking forward to it! You 100% were the convincing factor 😁
@@PloysMaw good to know, they just seem so relaxing
@@maxexp They are. If I were to compare the feeling it's like that of a slice of life anime.
interested in a void terrarium review, havent played it yet on switch
I have a review up for it already if you haven't seen it FYI (just not for the PS5 version :33)!
Scarlet nexas demo comes out may 28th and aside from that I got this and that trying to catch up on ky growing backlog
I intend to play that too! (Actually meant to add it into the video as I saw the news about it while I was editing, but I forgot lol)
Good luck backlogging ^__^
I love the look and style of Poison Control but the gameplay just hasn’t clicked with me
Man I wanna get into atelier but the packs are hella expensive do they ever go on sale
Nier:Reincanation also release the EN trailer with some english dubs oh!!!!!!
I saw! I’ve pre-registered~ :D
can I ask where you're watching these anime without subs? I'm playing the dusk trilogy right now!
On Netflix and Amazon Prime (Japanese versions). Netflix has Japanese subtitles for TWEWY which is a small help too, but English ones would help more of course haha
@@JRPGJungle thanks I want to practice Japanese without subs on
Ah nice! Japanese Netflix and Prime have plenty of stuff to do that with then (Prime in particular usually doesn’t have any subtitles, Eng or Japanese)!
I'm so tempted to get the trilogy but a lot of people say the mysterious trilogy is kind of meh.
It depends what you like :3 now that I’ve kind of played all three (haven’t completed Firis yet), I really like the protagonists in the trilogy and the atmosphere:3 but yeah, depends what you play for I guess :33
Nah I skipped poison control because I don't like shooter's and games without an English dub makes me hesitant on buying them so I'll buy poison control on a price drop maybe
