JRPGs |OT| The Grind to Level 99 is Paved With Good Intentions

Hmm…

+A convincing mock up for SMT IV on a single screen.

+Made sure to mention “Windows” as one of the platforms

+/- None of the art is new. Would think they’d do some new renders for those characters like Etrian Odyssey HD

+/- Game Pass isn’t listed as a “platform” when most times it is on these kinds of things, unless they’re skipping Game Pass at launch.

+/- Having a slide with all 3 games shown and also the platforms, when two of them are already on Switch (3 and 5) is a bit odd

+/- Not that this is impossible, but unless it’s cut off, they’re skipping Playstation (SMT IV and V, III HD is already there)?

+/- No “HD remaster” tagline on SMT IV. SMT III of course, has it, and Etrian Odyssey HD has the “Origins Collection” tagline, and in Japan actually also has the “HD Remaster” tagline.

+/- Comes from 4chan

-SMT III and V’s screenshots appear to be Switch screenshots. SMT III PC with an Xbox controller gives “colored” Xbox buttons, which this screenshot lacks. Those button prompts on SMT V also match the Switch version’s X and Y prompts, when they should be swapped.

-Maybe the biggest giveaway: The SMT IV Final Protag’s art is mirrored. His sidecut is now on the wrong side and the “NO WAR” on his jacket is now mirrored text.

-Picture of monitor leak (but didn’t go overboard with making it blurry)
