      @TehNSF Pƙed 19 dny

      @@singularbear8656 I haven't played SMT 3, so I can't tell you if that comparison is right. But the way it worked in SMT 5 is that all damage was reduced if your enemy was a higher level than you and just a couple of levels was enough to reduce your damage quite drastically. So no matter how tactfully you played, beating higher level enemies and especially bosses was a chore or even almost impossible.

    • @localidiot450

      Kind of a shame, some of the most memorable fights I had in SMTV was against bosses in higher levels than mine (could take up to 1 hour or more to defeat), I hope they didn’t spoil too much the fun with this change, so we’ll see

    "We're making the gameplay more accessible!"
    ... Why? Accessibility runs counter to the idea of difficulty. Giving the player more options can be good but...a key aspect of SMT is its difficulty.
    Also, 'demons are the focus of the series'? Since when? Nocturne focused on the player character. SMTIV focused on the world and characters. Devil Survivor focused on the characters. Strange Journey focused on the characters.
    I can't remember a single SMT game I played where demons were the focus. That's Pokemon's wheelhouse, forgoing story for power fantasy most of the time to make all the Pokemon look cool.
    Please do not turn into Pokemon. SMT is its own thing.
