This game looks like a financial flop

[AsuraStrike]

3k on launch day, maybe 5-10k during peak hours later today. Either way it looks like a financial flop. The game itself looks good, but the P5 spin-off fatigue is really showing. Just saying...

At least we're not still in P4 spin-off hell.

I'm put off by the art direction for this one. Gameplay does look interesting - but I will leave it for a time, when I will have nothing else to play

I'm not too bothered by the art style, as I think it adds a touch of light-heartedness to it - it's a spinoff after all and is not to be taken super serious. It's a step up from Q2 imo, but I can see where you are coming from. XD

Thats because smart people got it on game pass and since like 7-10% of the population has an iq of less than 85 we can use that data and assume that everyone who bough the game on steam falls into that category. So we can then assume that everyone else got it on game pass so using steam as the 7-10% the real number is probably around 35-40k

On the 3ds.

Whether it's a success or not depends on the budget it took to make the game compared against the profits. If the game didn't cost that much to make it'll still make a profit if the sales are modest or decent.

It's also being sold on various storefronts so we don't know, exactly, how successful it is based on Steam numbers alone.

I would like some new persona or smt game but honestly.. this is not it.

[xcenic]

I got to be honesty, im kind of tired of persona 5 already. There is already too much game and spon off and even when i love the soundtrack we need to move on already. I think im skipping this.

very glad that it's a financial flop maybe they will finally realize that prices they are setting on their games are dumb as ♥♥♥♥ (except persona 4)

only 1000 in total of feedback. not really a good sale so far.

My topic about "How about Persona 6" isn't looking so bad now is it? lol.

[Konachibi]

Persona 6 is in full development, in fact if rumours and leaks are to be believed, it began development at the same time as P3R, and is due to be released either later this year or early next year. SMT5 is coming to steam next month, and there are apparently a number of other SMT/Persona projects also in the works.

I love P5 and I love tactics games but this game fails on both fronts with terrible art (I love Disgaea and other games that use chibi only for map models but this is just plain bad) and puzzle-like gameplay. Even playing it on Gamepass for free I cannot wade through it, playing 2-3 chapters then closing it down due to boredom. Atlus set this up to bomb themselves unfortunately. They did the same for Persona Q, they seem to loathe tactics since they always put their weakest effort and worst art for it.

[Kamos]

I admit, I haven't played it but I was looking into it, it's pricing is higher than P5R at the moment with not even half the content of P5R it seems like a waste of money unless it's on a 50% sale.

I really wish they'd stop milking P5 if they're going to continue at least give us a full blown expansion that isn't a dynasty warriors collaboration or this.
