And I'd do it again.

i mean any purchase anywhere funds atlus as a whole and SMTV started development before the switch was even out. The game was always billed as a switch exclusive, no one has lied to you here.

[Leinad]

SMT 5 was a Switch exclusive since it was first anounced like 3 or 4 years ago

[decizion]

SMTV will probably come to PC after 6months or a year of switch exclusivity.
The game use Unreal Engine so that would be strange to not see a PC port...
Kinda like Daemon X Machina, just a timed exclusive.

[FhqwhTODD]

I hope so.

except DXM wasn't made by Atlus xD

If it would actually come i would laugh

like we have only P4 and SMT3 after that SMT5 like screw order go full chaos release route

SMTV i only hope that demons have more unique skills and traits because i literally carried my Daisoujou from lvl 30 to 99 because of Meditation on Nocturne and Samsara in P4G and is now my undisputed favorite demon

The unique skills are neat but it's just ♥♥♥♥ that you cannot pass them on. (yeah I know unique means unique)
Hassou Tobi from Persona 4 would be perfect for my MC in SMTIV. It's just called something else and DLC demon only.

Now you are wanting too much haha

i mean it was cool on Digimon Cybersleuch that every single digimon had a signature move the bad was that only the final forms digimon had completely broken skills hahaha turned completely pointeless trying a lower evolution team when even their unique moves sucked

^ This. SMT V was announced for Switch literally before the Switch released. The HD Remaster of Nocturne didn't begin development in earnest until 2018, and, lest people in their PC bubbles forget, was multiplatform. So the PC sales would've only figured fractionally in any such calculation on their part anyway, to the extent it would even be the case (which it likely wasn't, since SMT V was already in development for Switch prior to it.)

I promise you guys, publishers and devs are not sitting around thinking to themselves, "Haha! *Twirls evil mustache* How can we screw our prospective audience on X platform over to fund our efforts on Y platform today?"

releasing smaller, simpler games to finance your big dream project is quite common. But I doubt they needed to after Persona 5.
