Corrupted game input : the buttons seems glitched in the interface and they are not working properly (I must sprint with LT instead of RT, half my buttons doesn't work in menu, and at some point I couldn't even access menu).
Steam input doesn't seem to have an impact on the controller : happens with xbox one S, xbox serie, dualsense and switch pro controllers.

Already made a SEGA ticket support but if anyone here managed to had this glitch and find a solution, let me know : I already tried uninstalling aand installing as well as verifying game files.

EDIT : Just need to delete the syssave and launch the game ans do your settings again and now it works.

Having an issue where a boss fight is not triggering in the Save the Students quest. I run all around where she is and the quest marker, but it wont trigger. I have restarted the game, reloaded the save numerous times, verified integrity of the files, and uninstalled and reinstalled the game. Still does not work, and can't progress the story.

I have the deluxe edition of the game. Played it for 13 hours and now i can't play my 13 hour save anymore. Because I somehow don't own all the dlc for the game. Despite having all dlc. So what am I missing?

I'll assume your started playing on a family library account or something related? That account probably had the "pre order dlc" the 2 sacred treasure dlc thingie. But now your smt game doesn't have that, so your save is dead. Same as me.

Only if there's any hacky way to change your save files, which seems to exist but goes way over my head.
Or if Atlus/Sega ever decides to sell the dlc with those items.
What i recommend for now is taking this issue to everywhere you can and or ask for refund while declaring this was the issue.

Thanks for the help. I appreciate it.

Samael's pierce aura from his innate works properly (confers pierce status to himself and the other units it specifies) so Lucifer's innate skill is bugged.

Oversight: Guest characters added in the new route (and Demifiend) should scale into Godborne mode.

I've beaten the game first on the Canon of Vengeance. I'm trying to do a canon of creation play-through, but I'm stuck on the quest:

"Defeat the demon kings army". I can travel to the map fine, but the issue is with whatever quest / scene is supposed to trigger near the Nihonbaro pillar. The marker is there, but nothing triggers no matter where / how I walk around it.

I cannot start the hellfire highway quest because of this, and I'm at a complete loss.

I don't know if this is the problem you're having, but I do know that sometimes boss fights don't occur if you fail to trigger a side conversation beforehand. These aren't marked on the map, but are supposed to be along the route you would take to get to the quest marker. I would shift back to the first leyline on the map and walk back to the quest marker to see if anything happens along the way.

A few issues:

- Menus are capped to 60FPS when they have no reason to be
- Some UI assets and cutscenes seem very low quality
- Mouse camera movement seems to be smoothed. Would be nice to be able to turn it off.
