I liked the combat for tales of arise. But I also liked scarlet nexus combat. Hopefully we get something similar to either of them.

The moment they told us there would be no multiplayer in Arise, me and my friends simply didn’t buy the game, still haven’t, even if they would add official multiplayer, we’d need a massive discount to buy it now anyway (haven’t even bhought it when it have been sub 10$).

…then why don’t you go and create a game from scratch – plot, story line, script, coding, graphics, etc. Let’s not forget marketing and turning it into a brand known worldwide that the majority will enjoy playing.

Try being an etrian odyssey fan, almost 8 years lol.

4 years in comparison doesn’t seem so bad.

I get the frustration 🫤

I’d love to see an article here about atlus, its obsession with smt/persona getting in the way of a game fans have been waiting for almost 8 years since the reveal trailer.

I’m talking about Etrian Odyssey. Just short of 8 years ago they revealed a few seconds long video for what everyone expected to be the first EO game on switch. Now switch 2 is out and we’ve had pretty much no news since, just “the team is delayed helping out with the new smt” which has come and gone, as has multiple persona games, a smt remake, a new ip game in refantazio, anothe remake of persona game, spin off, the list goes on.

What have Etrian odyssey fans, a group of fans who aren’t small, have a subreddit very active daily even to this day, gotten?

Nothing. We got the EO 1,2,3 HD games on switch and pc, and I think we’d be happy with a 5, 6, N HD if they must make is wait more, yet nothing…

It is the 20th year anniversary of the IP next year and frankly I’ve placed bets on us getting news in the form of a nothing burger.

I see so much marketing news for stuff, please consider making an article on EO and the long wait for us fans who seem neglected and ignored. Just like how the silksong articles were popular, it’d be nice to get some fellow gamer support because…

8 years…

There comes a point where patience has done its due diligence and is being taken advantage of.

It’s just a JRPG bruhhh, not GTA VI. No way they need time that long for a game that has only 2 digits of gameplay hours and map that is far less than RDR 2, Skyrim, or The Witcher 3. If all they can do are just releasing remaster again and again, the franchise deserved to be axed/stopped and the entire studio needs to be dismantled, the entire employees+leaders/producers deserved to lose their jobs

All I ask is you build off the previous game.

I liked Arise but it did feel shallower than prior entries due it really kind of starting from scratch.

So now just take that and give it more depth. More enemy variety.

And please … Just pace production so there aren’t obvious cuts in the story.
