Pretty smart move by Atlus. Not that there is any chance in hell I could finish this game in a week, but it's still good news.

Thank you Elden Ring! I'll take it! I'm looking forward to this one so one less week of waiting is good.

Nice. No reason to be the same day as Elden Ring during a not as packed month
Atelier Sophie 2: Cowards.

www.resetera.com

Should Elden Ring move its release date to prevent being overshadowed by Atelier Sophie 2?

With the recent news that the Saint's Row reboot has been delayed (Here). Only two titles are left standing for a February 25th, 2022 Release date - Elden Ring & Atelier Sophie 2. These are two absolute juggernauts in the gaming space and I feel there isn't enough room for the two of them to...

I really hope they are able to bring this one up to par with the rest. Mainline SMT games are always something special and this one just felt lacking.

All my complaining on Twitter worked! :D

1 week isn't that much but it's still better than the literal same day. Props to Sega for actually doing something about it this time.

I mean it wouldnt be a problema at all for Switch users but I guess this version mostly exists to sell to other platforms that do have ER

One week doesn't seem like a lot but I'm sure it's a real easy decision to sign off on compared to even two weeks. And I'd be willing to bet this guarantees at least some day one buyers they'd not have otherwise had.

Good move.

I'm trying to understand based on the new info if the humans joining you will still do that in Canon of Creation. It would make sense, especially Tao in the second area.

Glasya-Labolas (Per wikipedia: (Count/President) Glasya-Labolas (also Caacrinolaas, Caassimolar, Classyalabolas, Glassia-labolis, Glasya Labolas, Gaylos-Lobos) is a mighty President of Hell who commands thirty-six legions of demons. He is the author and captain of manslaughter and bloodshed, tells all things past and to come, gains the minds and love of friends and foes causing love among them if desired, incites homicides and can make a man invisible. He is depicted as a dog with the wings of a griffin.)

In combat, Tao uses Healing and Support magic, Yuzuru uses his COMP to summon That Doggo Character (I don't know what skill he's using in this screenshot), Dazai uses "unique" demons like Mokoi and... the little dragon thing whose name I can't remember)

Slayhori's art is tentacle free, I don't know did they have a tentacle free version of it in the original?

I know it's the same art, I just didn't know if this version (tentacle free) was ever used for the original release.

Anyway: Chain battles are in, sometimes after defeating an enemy group, you'll get sucked into another battle immediately like in previous game. This is more likely to happen the more enemies on the map where you initiated the battle. You receive bonuses for completing chain battles.

Senri is back, and sometimes in negotiations, demons will pull a Who's That Pokemon? on you by showing you a silhouette and asking you to identify the demon. This is pretty easy, it asks if the demon is a Slime, a Preta, or an Onmoraki (the answer, of course, is "Jigglypuff from above")

Oh wow I skipped right past the Magatsuhi Skill stuff. I think it says that there are over 50 Magatsuhi Combo skills?

this is giving Catillac Cats

I don't know if this is a new racial Magatsuhi or if it's a combo gig, but Rain of Chaos has a chance to insta kill and reduces the enemy team's number of Press Turn Icons by one the next round.

2 weeks would have been better. Shit 3. I'm not gonna take less than a month the way I play games nowadays.

I'll accept this W though.
