Forums - Gaming - Why I think SMT x FE will be a lighter version of Persona 5

When they first announced it, they said SMT x FE. THAT IS IT.

They didn't say if it was JUST ELEMENTS from those games or not. They didn't say what type of game. They didn't specify anything.

The image that was shown at the end was of a city from a distance. THAT IS IT.

They didn't show what was going on in the city.

They told us there was going to be a crossover, and they did do it.

Enough of your BS already.


That wasn't it. The teaser had implications. The teaser showed characters from SMT1, 2, 3, 4, and If as well as characters from various FE games. Then they showed a teaser image from neither series, meant to imply that it was a teaser image specifically for this game, which showed an ominous scene of a modern city at night with ominous music and an ominous screen effect implying that something was wrong and implying that that is what players shoulg expect from the game.

They then release a trailer after two years to a bubblegum JPop song that doesn't song like anything from any of the games represented in the teaser in an artstyle and art design design that doesn't look like anything from any of the games represented in the teaser with gameplay that doesn't look like anything from any of the games represented in the teaser.

If they didn't want the reaction they got, they shouldn't have released the teaser they released.

1. That does not mean the characters aren't in.

2. Of course it won't represent the same artstyle as the original characters, it is not done by the same artist.

3. Maybe if you shut up and do more research on the freaking 2 minute trailer you will find there are several elements of both series.

4. ITS A TWO MINUTE LONG TRAILER. We practically don't know anything of the game yet.

5. When they released that first trailer, I'm pretty sure all they had to show was the artwork. They had to show something to show us it was a crossover other than a name so they just showed us the main characters of the series.

6. Stop with this. You're embarrasing youself.

They didn't really promise anyone anything, except for the fact that the title will be "SMT x FE", that's literally all that happened. But they have now promised that a WHOLE WORLD in the game will be dedicated to the FE setting, and I don't see that as a bare bone element, plus, we haven't even seen much of the game, that would've been the opening chapter for all we know. The rest of the game might be just what fans wanted, but we don't know.

The only thing we know is that the game is called SMT x FE, and that the game will be healily inspired by those games, but will not neccesarily be those games.


The title SMT x FE was not all that happened. The clear reaction people have proves that. Everyone was expecting similar because the teaser implied something similar.

And I've never in all my years of gaming seen a game other than Spec Ops: The Line that was ever different from the game the trailer made it out to be. If the trailer only meant to imply the "first chapter" of the game, with the rest of it being completely different, the trailer wouldn't have been made in a way to make is seem like that's how you'd be spending most of your time.

Also, all of the charaters are around level 30 in most of the trailer, so it's not "the first chapter." It's well into the game.

i honestly it can't help but wonder what the reaction would of been if this game was just annouced for the first yesterday?

It would be a big positive surprise.

The January 2013 Direct always gets a lot of praise, but I think that they did lots of things wrong there. It was "please understand" for the early 2013 drought and too early announcements of Xenoblade, Yoshi and SMT x FE. They should have been revealed at E3 2013/14. People are expecting big announcements in Nintendo Directs since then, but it's really not the right place.

The teaser implied a game with SMT and FE related to it in some way, shape or form. Nothing more, nothing less.

Well, reception has been positive so far, with the obvious share of skepticism from fans that expected a fantasy game similar to Fire Emblem titles, charged with depressive temes and stuff. 



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

I think the reception is more mixed than positive. I'm just being critical and I intend to buy it. I'm seeing a lot of people legitimately shitting on it everywhere. And I don't blame them being upset.

yeah has much as i loved that direct games like Xenoblade, Wind Waker HD, Yoshi and SMT x Fire Emblem plus other games that weren't annouced at that direct like A Link Between Worlds, and Pokemon X and Y and not telling us about the new Mario Kart or 3D Mario or Smash being there would been awesome surprises for E3 2013 which was why that E3 was so lackluster for Nintendo cause of the lack of any real surprised.
