      Honestly kinda sucks they won't be doing it anymore because the whales who bought in were making it cheaper for the rest of us who buy later.
      Since now instead of buying Persona Royal with all the BS side DLC Atlus sold in the previous version included we get to pay for the game, the BS dlc, purchase the expansion, and then the BS expansion DLC.
      Atlus is changing it probably because they realize it's gonna be more profitable in the long run.

      @@GameBooAdvancePlus I mean go off but you're yet to explain why Ultimate is so different from Royal/Golden/Vengeance/etc.
      Also no they do not have an entirely different story they have an additional story tacked onto the end of the original story. Y'know, just like FES/Golden/Royal.
      Also no that hasn't changed with DLC like Sunbreak, Sunbreak/Iceborne in fact do the same thing. You finish the base story, now do the ultimate story. The big difference being that there is no village/hub separation so G-Rank is now singleplayer available and has an actual story.
      Also MH only stopped with that method with the release of Iceborne. Monster Hunter GU was released in 2017-2018 depending on territory meaning they were still doing this stuff a year before the release of base world.
      That's not even getting into Ultimate versions for fighting games which I'm aware of but don't talk about because I don't play them.
      My whole point here being that no Capcom doesn't get to be excused just because they did it earlier, they were still 4-5 years late. This isn't just an Atlus thing.

      It most cases its an entirely different village with a different main monster harassing them wth do you mean, and usually on different consoles. Putting nintendo aside because they're the absolute worst about this, ATLUS has been exceptionally bad because it would even be in the same console generation. It tells me they treat the rerelease as a big patch instead of new content. And yes, objectively speaking they're moving away from the rerelease style by making it DLC instead. I'm agreeing with you.

    The thing about the Atlus rereleases was that they were originally just a way for the compamu to make more money and escape a looming bankruptcy brought on by the financial failures of NINE, Digital Devil Saga, and Nocturne. P3 (and the Persona IP which already sold well in general) was the game that changed that trajectory into an upward climb. Ths problem is they didn't stop after they were out of hole.

    Having played vanilla P5 at release, I can tell you I didn't get very far into P5R. I just couldn't dude. I played vanilla back when I was in medical school and barely had time as it was. Took me a whole two months to get through it. Now I'm a resident and though time is still an issue, I STILL manage to squeeze in the RPGs somehow... but the caveat is that shiny NEW games take precedence. I just could not be arsed to play through a game I was already too familiar with, even with all the new changes. I think one of the reasons why P3R was so easy for me to play through, despite being familiar with the social links, story twists, and everything.... is that I last played P3 back in freakin 2008. Compare this to the much shorter time gap between vanilla P5 and P5R.
    Game's just too fresh in my mind, tbh. That was pretty much it.

      It is a successor in a sense, but Death Stranding is the actual literal Silent Hill analogue, it takes from plot elements of Silent Hill 1-3 while PT was heavily influenced by 4.

    Oh for pat if he ever reads. Pathfinder does this cool but weird thing with the dlc where it works like a bonus in the main campaign. Where if you replay it the dlc you often play in a separate mode will give you a main game bonus. With every season adding at the end a new expansion or ending/s. The key is to just play the story and replay it when the new chunk every year or so happens and finding all the dlc bonuses for beating the dlc stories.

    I totally disagree about the Atlus thing;
    I generally consider every version of an Atlus game an artistically complete and separate work (other than SMTV and the annoying feature spread between each P3 version).
    By parsing out the new content into multiple DLCs over the course of a couple years, as opposed to just waiting 2-5 for a big updated version, they can easily charge you more in the long run. How much is that Aigis DLC gonna be? $20-$30? Are they gonna do FemC? They could easily justify that being $40-$50 by calling it an expansion. Doesn't take too many of those to exceed $60-$70.
    It's also likely to limit the insane left turns they can take with new story content, like the entire latter 20 hours of P5R. That's the sort of thing that I don't think gets cut from the base game for time, I see that as a situation where they got to think "Okay, now that it's done, how can we go totally nuts with it?"

  • @6lbsofshrimp

    My only defense for Atlus is "profit wise".
    People will probably get mored hyped/more likely to buy a "new" game rather then hearing dlc is coming to a game they may or may not have finished 2-3 years ago. It gives people a reason to
    A: Played it, come back and check it out
    B: heard about it but never got around to playing it for the first time
    C: Hear about it for the first time
    Like these are all net benefits to Atlus, the Company that just cares about money and isn't your friend vs the like 30 dollars they'd get from whatever number of player base would be interested in golden/royal upgrades via dlc

    • @Vanity0666
      @Vanity0666 2 месяца назад +7

      Yeah, they're just doing over here what they have done in their home country since the 2000s
      Nocturne alone had like 3 different versions with different content. The west just didn't get it until the final version had come out.
      On top of that SMTV was not rushed or unfinished, people just didn't know what the game was going for and the general audience is really fucking stupid and needs to have their dumb ass hands held while they are being told whats happening on screen in grade-school terms.
      The original story is really great if you have the knowledge of what is being portrayed from outside of the game which is explicitly what they were going for, and said as much in developer interviews and such. The whole game revolves around the concept of knowledge being power, and the people who went into the game not knowing anything about world mythology, scripture, religion, etc while complaining about how there was no story were actually playing right into the story's core plot elements. It was literally the prime example of show not tell.

      The words of the producer, Kazuyuki Yamai are as follows:
      In ordinary RPGs, the hero who helps troubled people and destroys evil is considered the good guy. But in SMT, you will be asked things like “Do you really want to rescue them?” or “Do you think you want to save this world?” There ought to be not few people in the world who want to answer 'No', and I think this RPG is like a life simulator that can be enjoyed by such people.

SMT V on the other hand was rushed and absolutely felt like it came out half baked, so to then sell a more complete version of the game at full price, offering no discount to the people who bought the disappointing base version? Yeah, people are gonna be rightfully pissed. I got base V and ended up playing through Vengeance, but only because I had access to it through a friend's steam library, no way in hell I'm droppping $80 (I'm in Canada) for the finished version of a game I already bought.

    The first time I ever had this was Dark Souls 2. I got the collector's edition, and bought all of the DLC separate, meaning I pretty much spent about the most that a consumer could spend on that game. Less than a year later, they turned around and said "hey look, we changed up the game with better graphics and enemy layout and integrated the dlc completely into the main game, and also bumped the PC version up to DX11!" Great, I thought. Do I get this for free? "Nope, but here's a 50% discount, pay us more loser lmao" Still to this day do not own SOTFS.

    Paradox is the worst offender for prolonged DLC. Europa Universalis IV got new DLC this year and it came out in 2013. I thought about going back to Crusader Kings III but its DLC tail is so long that it's just out of my price ranger. I realized that grand strategy games aren't story based in the traditional narrative sense so the DLC framework is structured differently than in an RPG, but at some point I would like a book end. It's great if you get in on the ground floor and follow along from release, but otherwise you're stuck sifting through a bunch of stuff that may or may not actually be worth it.

      Silent Hills would have likely been exactly like Death Stranding in terms of gameplay with the only major difference being you transporting items across large areas in order to solve puzzles in whatever order you want or whenever you come across a new key item.
      The remnants of the original design are all present in Death Stranding itself. Every BT area uses Silent Hills assets that were already developed prior to Kojima's split from Konami.

    The reason Vengeance exists is because the game went multiplatform instead of being switch exclusive.
    Nearly all of the people whining about buying the game twice didn't even buy the game the first time.
    There have been approximately 134 million Switch units sold worldwide. Smt5 sold about 1 million copies give or take on its initial launch. That means less than 1% of switch owners bought the switch exclusive game.
    The stats don't add up for their complaints to be valid.

No one was upset about RE set in Africa, it has everything to do with the tropes used. In RE4, the Spanish antagonist is small, charismatic enough to do one-liner-offs with Leon, and has two badass henchmen. In RE5, the African victims had no agency whatsoever and are reduced to stereotypes.
