Is this game actually garbage trash shit or did I get filtered early and should give it another go?

for context, I really enjoyed SMT IV and IV Apocalypse, even SMT III Nocturne. SMT V just feels empty and a slog.

You were filtered. The game thrives when you're doing sidequests for demons exploring the world.

genuinely thought it was the best SMT game and a solid 9/10

It sucks

Game is excellent, story and human characters are garbage.

SMT V is actual dogshit. Don't let the yaoifags tell you otherwise.

I don't understand how an objectively great game can induce so much petulant hatred from people

Just because you jerk off to Nahobino porn doesn't mean it's a good game.

Atlus makes great games with great soundtracks and visuals but the writing has become abysmal over the years.

Oh so you're just a poltard tourist who doesn't play video games.

No, I played SMTV and from the discussion I've seen on Any Forums, people being horny for the MC is the only reason this game is defended here

grow up

>like game A, game B and game C, all of which are really similar
>but I don't like game D, which is also really similar
it isn't the game.
it's you.

The gameplay is fun, but they had to remove the story thanks to the coof. No I’m not kidding

Both. You certainly got filtered but it's one of the weaker SMT games due to being the first game on a new engine. It's decent but it lacks demons, dungeons and story

>lacks dungeons
oh no, you mean like SMT 3 Nocturne that made me want to cut myself from the endless, completely identical dungeon rooms?
>lacks demons
no it doesn't, not at all, and the combat / demon design is the best of any SMT game

SMT V represents the demon characters better than every other game in the series combined. It also has the best level design where every level is designed like a dungeon. The story is intentionally unobtrusive and emphasizes exploration like the rest of the game, with many key pieces being hidden in NPC dialogud and sidequests.

>you mean like SMT 3 Nocturne
No
>no it doesn't
IV has more than twice the amount of demons, yes its lacking

You first

and 1/4 of the depth with shitty design. The new Pokémon games have multiples more Pokémon than Red or Gold but they are still far worse games.

game is filled with hot demons but sure focus on one tranny spamming Any Forums

Arbitrary fraction, arbitrary opinion, deflect to another game not relevant to this franchise.
