So we now know the stakes of this tournament. The two leading competitors have their own ideals that would taken to great extremes if either becomes king.
Forden is the leading representative of the religion that created the notion of "superior" and "lesser" races and therefore is responsible for the now rampant discrimination and abuse of the "lesser" races. Louis is a ambitious military man who would eliminate members of the royal family to achieve his goals.
So basically no matter who wins the kingdom will be forever changed for the worst. If Forden wins the kingdom will become a place where "superior" races rule over everything while the "lesser" races are their livestock/slaves. And if Louis wins the kingdom will become a militarized dictatorship. The protagonist's main goal may be to save the prince but it's also good to think that he's also preventing these two extremists from taking the throne and transforming the kingdom based on their warped ideals.
I love this. This is Law vs Chaos in a unique fantasy setting. The Travelling Boy represents the Neutral dreamer ending and that's why this will be Atlus' anniversary game. This will be a masterpiece.
You can hide the law/chaos route split from me atlus
I like this idea already
Sound like an smt game
Louis = Milei (Argentina)
Thank god im watching this at 3 am, gonna forget everything
I love the artstyle. Atlus never disappoints
Junah definitely seems to be a *interesting* character so far.
Yeah hahaha 🤣
2:12 damn. Tha MC got KABE-Donned
I really like Heismay. I enjoy when people make characters look more animal than human.
I also respect that he has a deep voice instead of high-pitched, squeaky one like you'd expect.
basically… furries
@@Mitsux31 Yes...bats have fur...?
Riku Xenoblade comes to mind, but unlike him, Heismay's voice is deep both in japanese and english !
I have a feeling I'm really gonna love him.
@@Mitsux31 not the brightest huh?
Haha
This game has Final Fantasy vibe with Megaten elements.
Heismay and Junah are my favorite characters so far. They said there will be 7 playable characters but they only mentioned 6, unless im counting wrong
I bet you it is Akechi.
Get that shit out of here @@user-pd7xw9iv3l
MC, Strolh, Hulkenberg, Heismay, Junah, Neuras, and the three eyed girl. There you go. You can see a shot of the full team in the past trailer of this game where they stand on a cliff looking at a scenery together
@@date5960 Neura is not playable, though. The last guy to join the party fighting is Basilio.
Right, and I'm pretty sure the three-eyed girl's name is Eupha.
I love the mod fashion inspiration, what a unique choice for a fantasy setting
Its fascinating to see the thinking and inspiration behind such a cool looking game that turns a lot of tropes on their head. Cannot wait!!
Looks like door kun and Aigis had a secret love child
Heismay and Junah are instant favorites of mine already. Heismay's voice sounds similar Cidolphus from Final Fantasy XVI. And Junah is Waifu material!
Nice to see that they've fixed the aliasing issues. That was driving me wild.
this is gonna be huge
I cannot wait for this.
This game and DQ3 os my most wanted games this year
Mine too along with Vision Of Mana Too bad though I was not able to preorder the limited edition of this game 😢 I’ll have to check the website later today.
12:00 - I Know More Now.
I have spent almost a 100 hours on SMT5: Vengeance and have beat Persona 5 a couple years back, if this game is a good mix of both of them while pushing the Atlus JRPG style forward then it's going to be a genuine masterpiece.
you should play P3R and P4G too
@@kristof910k I have played P3 Portable and P4G too but as enjoyable as the social aspects (Hell, I'd go as far as saying P4G has superior and more natural slice of life scenes than P5) of those games were, I found the dungeon crawling atrocious so I have quit both games about the halfway point. P5 luckily had very well crafted custom dungeons, and SMT5 is a different beast entirely with maybe some of my favorite combat/exploration in a JRPG, but the ~3 dungeons in it were quite lacking too sadly.
Than you not a persona fan for real just a p5 fan.@@Dwesk
@@mikethepokemaster2012 Sorry for not enjoying procedurally generated dungeon crawling (where the only worthwhile combat is boss fights and golden gloves) which is quite literally half the game I guess? SMT5 and P5 as well as most other JRPGs don't have this issue. :) Metaphor won't either.
@@mikethepokemaster2012 their grievances are valid, The P3 Tartarus is shit and boring, P4's TV world is literally worse than that, and is an abomination of boring level design.
"Humans" as the enemy, a literal monster in this world, i can't wait to know if there are any story behind the name
ohhhh can't wait
Magic is made out of anxiety, goddamn
If that’s the case then imma magical being
@@Lonewulf321same
that's why the protagonist is so strong
Finally I can be powerful and useful
I know some people that would be an infinite magic source in this world.
Cant wait for it! 😊 Very Interesting Characters und Tribes! Story Drama interessting so far. Will play IT day one!
This game comes out about a month before the American election where anxiety is quite high. We must seek our inner archetypes and vote or something like that😌
Glad i get 1 last month to play this before the civil war
Yes!!!
This looks amazing
im gonna name my protagonist.."Legoshi".
heismay is gonna be a favorite of mine.
PERSONA! 8:53
Louis reminds me Reinhard Von Lohengramm :)
Day one for me. Thanks Atlus.
so hyped cant wait for this game
Red Elf is best girl
Junah-chan ❤❤❤❤
Okay so basically the magla anxiety magic particles are basically Minovsky particles from Gundam/Magatsuhi from SMT right?
Louis means business damn
Is the prince a secret or something? At one part of the trailer, they say that the aging king has no heir, and then later they talk about the prince being the heir to the throne. Anyone else catch that?
As far as the public knows the prince was assassinated years ago when he was in fact cursed and the protagonist goal is killing Louis because of it.
@@robotmaster1207 Aaah gotcha, the curse happened in the past! For some reason I interpreted the info as Louis assassinating the king and cursing the prince in the same night. Thank you!
Awesome Metaphor: ReFantazio "ATLUS Exclusive" Showcase Story Video.
Future me. Check back after you finish this game. See if Louis has a last name. Maybe something like “Eifer”
please i want the switch 2 right now so that this game comes to it i realy hope it's true that they release it on switch 2
When she Re on my Metaphor til i wake up and realise it was a Fantazio
I guaranteed you that
1. Gaius going to die early.
2. Plot twist mid game is "Louis is not the one that cast Cursed on prince"
Or both of the two leading candidates were in on it. I also wouldn't be surprised if, because the enemy monsters are "humans", this ends up being the "shadow world" from Persona (where your Personas are summoned from).
Junah working her way up to best girl status iktr
Tiene muy buena pinta.
Ya quiero jugarlo en mi xbox 💚
Got a feeling the prince and the MC are gonna get shipped a lot. Dunno why.
because they will
Cause they will.
As a general rule of thumb, non-background characters who have at least one positive interaction with each other (context and subtext be damned) will likely be shipping fodder. Shipping intensity increases with more interactions (mainly but not always positive) and screen presence.
Both of these characters were described as childhood friends and are critically important to the story (one as the MC, the other as a living inciting incident). So outside of the main party the prince will likely be the MC's most frequently shipped partner.
What are two twinks gonna do with each other
Louis x protagonist
Akademeia was said so zesty
the zestiest of academies
@@SodaPopBot i mean have you seen who runs it, it's only fair
Cant wait for fall and winter!! I am loving this game so far
had to end at 3:51 cuz I wanna go in fresh
Whenever Atlus makes games like this, I'd only recommend hard mode and max difficulty rather than normal more cause i've had my own hardships to endure longer than everyone else.
Nice hope they stay a bit more vague and dont show to much
Least you don't get a Game over if the MC dies in battle.
Let me guess Catherina is Rin(Catherine) easter egg. Loise is Lucifer reference. Chihaya(P5 fortune teller) isekaied as Junah. Gallica is SMT3 pixie. Nice
Yea, it feels like Atlus decided ti just rip and tear their past IPs into the new one.
Lucifer as the main villain(on surface), Door-kun as MC, pixie redesin as first companion, personas but with SMT combat, slightly altered social links... like, really, world is the most(and only) unique thing here from what I've seen.
This looks pretty decent.
Brutal it's the trifecta law, neutral, chaos again 😂.
Not against it but it's obvious and will be interesting.
Louis isn't unfamiliar either especially with how it's helel lucifer in design
I hope they'll finally release it for Switch 2.
The art and graphics seem worth it. Even though this game looks so different and strange.
i know he's the enemy but can we like... smooch Louis...
Where is the demo
Louis, a beautiful blonde charismatic leader who manipulates things behind the scenes. This team couldn’t help themselves by injecting “Louis Cypher” into another game huh? At least make it less obvious next time.
My GOTY.
😍😍
0:02
Oh gOD is ThAT gRIFFITh
He did no wrong
Junah is my favorite 100%. I doubt it is true that there is no romance in this game.
I can't pre order it cuz it's not available in the playstation store
It is actually. I literally pre-ordered this less than a month ago
@@DonnellDavis-fc9tw well am holding my controller and am in the playstation store right now and I can't pre order I can only wishlist I can't send screenshot but yeah it's available for me yet
@@lyonchemsou1827 might depend on where you’re located.
Here in the west coast of the US it is already available for preorder on the PlayStation store as well as physical preorders everywhere else.
It should roll out to you soon i’m sure.
Where is the thing where "are world is there fantasy" is that plot in their or not
Our world is a story in fantasy novel that protagonist has.
Luise looks like the guy who did no wrong
so does the protag have an actual political platform or does he just want to kill louis
Protagonist want that his kingdom has peace , harmony and equality like "the world" in his fantasy novel.
Knowing Atlus I'm sure there'll be a "definitive" edition in three years with +20 hours of gameplay or so. I'll wait for it to play it
It'll most likely be multi platform too.
for sure.
but i cant wait 3 years to play it
il get it now for pc/deck, and later on switch for definitive edition
No dude, it gonna comes out a full experience with complete story just like p5 did, p5 the original was a complete experience and it even won rpg of the year, these enhanced Verisons are NOT the complete version they are basically if the game succeed, it another opportunity for them to improve and add more content, but on release they always release a complete Verison with like 100 hours of gameplay.
@@john_7000 literally P5's true ending is only obtainable in Royal
@@sonjesus2013 The original P5 always had a true ending. Royal just added a different true ending that can only be obtained if you play through the new scenario.
Looks great but if the bunny girl isn't a party member I'm going to be very disappointed. That would be a huge oversight seeing how popular bunny girls are and how often she appears in trailers.
Catherina is one you bond with, "Brawler", and also someone who is competing for the throne.
One more playable char who
The three eyed girl. They already showed her in the past trailers
@@date5960 Eupha
god i hope that this game REALLY revolves around some battle royale for the throne. People with different philosophies of how to lead, or what they deserve. And I hope it STICKS TO THAT. Please don't turn into 'all other king-candidates become my friends and together we kill god' simulator
It none of ur business I love that stuff and other people do too, and it will diffently be that if u don't like that don't play it, there is a lot of meanings behind that stuff but u people just don't take it seriously.
@@john_7000 you have no clue
Louis huh?….Are they related to Louisafair by any chance?
Can't wait to play this on my PS5. Thanks for doing the marketing for Sony too, Microsoft.
Lmao, looks like someone's salty that Microsoft has the marketing rights for an Atlus game. What's wrong, are you mad that Microsoft paid Atlus to put the Xbox logo over all the Metaphor/Persona trailers and not mention the PS5 version?
You've been crying about Xbox on every Metaphor video on this channel. I can practically see the tears in your eyes as you wrote this comment. Get some mental help.
@@jimmythegamer2231while I agree he’s a Sony pony, you on the other hand are an mad Xbot. Relax
I can’t imagine fusing my being to a brand like this. None of them care about us you know. Just pick a box and play games. It really doesn’t matter trust me.
Are you crying?
@@shincifer lol so making fun of someone who's losing their mind over Microsoft marketing an Atlus game makes them an Xbot? Sounds like you're the one who needs to relax and get your head straight.
The protagonist looks A LOT like Makoto Yuki. Humans being the enemy makes sense.
Guarantee you this is a secret Persona universe game.
Only his facial features yet but everything else no
This is more like a presidential election simulator rather than a fantasy rpg hahaha
I've never wanted to buy a game less.
were we supposed to know that Louis is a traitor?
Yess it basically the beginning of the story, none of what they showed is a spoiler everything they showed is basically the beginning of the story, and plus they gave u a notice if u don't want to know what happens in the beginning u can just not watch but u did.
need more waifus
Gallica feet 🤤
Seems to me like one of those projects where the effort clearly exceeds the appeal.
God forbid some companies still have passion left in their work right?
gonna wait 3 years for the better ver 🤡
damn Atlus, yall ain't gotta embarrass Squreenix this damn bad. I'm kidding yeah you do, show those idiots people aren't over turn based combat, they just need it to be good.
Thanks for the spoilers, atlus lol this story sounds fantastical
I don't think the animated cutscenes look that great sadly. But the art direction and in game visuals look amazing.
Pertamax 👻
🤡
Keduaxx
pengemar RPG🤣👍🙏🙏
Anjay ada indo juga cuy
@@jesterzubrata salam kenal boi🤣✌️ games RPG yg di nanti kan ini.😁👍
Damn the guy least stop talking during character dialogs
Okay so you can romance June’s and Gallica-who else?
There is no optional romances in this game
There's literally gonna be no romance in this game.
Okay we get it, im already copping this day 1, no need to put the whole game out there
Okay we get im already copping this day 1, no need to put the whole game out there
U really don't have to watch, they even give u a notice if u Don't want to watch, stop complaining this for us who want to to learn more and I want to see more, if u don't want to don't watch, plus this is literally only the beginning of the story and this game probably gonna be huge
so its a linear story after all? It would have been a perfect chance to state otherwise
Most likely will be structured just like in persona: Main events with deadlines and you can do whatever you want between them with a couple of bad endings if you fail
@@CloudBringer which is a shame, i hoped it would be structured more like smt. Well, there is still a small chance i guess, they might just not tell as this if its something at the later part of the story
Why would it not be?
@@rotonek2887 Just because it has a calendar doesn't mean it'll be structured 1 to 1 like persona, which is based on a contemporary setting. We have zero idea how days, weeks, and months are structured in this world. The ideal structure is to not be like persona OR smt, tbh.
I thought we already knew this? 😅
bro, let us clap the lil fairy cheeks atlus PLLEAASEEEEE!! peak fiction!!😩😩😩
You’re weird.
Do not buy until they release the enhanced version. You are warned!
Screw that. I've been waiting for this game for months and I'm not going wait three years (at least) for an enhanced version that may never even happen. This is a day 1 buy for me.
@@LoneWolf982 Months? This game was announced in Dec. 2016 when Studio Zero was announced.
@@RionAgrias But I didn't even know about it until a few months ago. It also didn't help that the marketing campaign made me think it was Xbox exclusive. When I found out that it was also on PS5 I was overjoyed and actively started following it.
@@LoneWolf982 Before Xbox's monetary marketing support of Atlus, there was only Project Re:Fantasy, and its efforts reaching its climax every December. The climax being a video of a knight (probably could be Grius) eating a pigeon.
Why no romance options?!
Oooh nooo
I hope it´s because our protagonist is in a relationship or in love with the prince.
@@Haruka_Watanabe💀
Because our protagonist is only focused on saving his best friend. No time for romance.
@@Haruka_Watanabenah that ain't doing that lol. It's Atlus
this looks like a switch game
Just give us a 2 hour demo already all this showcase is ruining my interest in this game
Emmm... plot in its base is like flashback to b-tier games of 200X. We are shown the main antagonist from the very beginning and, somehow, it seems only we know who is to blame in entire game universe))))) Some nonename guy discovered thuth from the beginning))) and the rest of the game we struggle to reach this guy.... Where is intrigue, where are plot twists? What a bullshit
So, you already played the game and know that there will be no plot twist or you are taking everything they're showing you at face value.
Also, you are assuming that the protagonist is a nobody when it explicitly says in the video that he and the cursed prince were best friends and even if that were true, only with this video we are obviously lacking a lot of context. It's like you are watching a trailer for a movie and assume that's the whole story.
Seriously, either you skimmed the video or are purposefully ignoring it just so you can bitch about the game.
They haven't betrayed their style; visually, it still looks like a PS3 game. And you can't look at the facial animation without feeling pain.
sadly yes
What if you think this look ps3 your really dumb
Art direction>>>>>graphics
@@jacopom.7477 yeah, when you apply art over graphics. But take a look at the travelling across some desert moment. It looks like san andreas landscape in 2024. No art, no graphics
I think they tried too hard on some enemy/boss designs, and they look more goofy than scary or cool
Lol 😆 dude they based on an actual artist, don't talk if u don't know anything
"Look at me, i'm a cool kid."
So you're saying Hieronymous Bosch tried too hard with those designs? WTF, bro is waging a war against art history right here. I pray for you my friend
I hate the MC voice
PlayStation players should absolutely ignore this game, since they are trying by all means to make people think it’s not coming out there
Geez, no, don't. It's really not the dev team's fault that the higher up in marketing have a deal with Microsoft.
Support new IPs, folks !
@@corruptedteka I’ll make sure to play
This on gamepass and never touch it again. I’ll never buy this game. And this is their fault. I won’t support a game that doesn’t even tell me it’s coming out on my platform of choice
@@Norightnowrong1 it’s just a dumb marketing deal. If you want to prove a point, don’t support this game on Xbox or Game Pass and instead buy and play it on your platform of choice. Whether that be another console or PC.
This game is DOA. Perfect for gamepass.
What o.o irs also Not part of Gamepass xd you Just called a high goty contender dead on arrival xd
Something a philistine would say. Grow up and realize you NEED to get the collector's edition if not to resell it after it's price skyrockets in the near future
Bait used to be funny at least
