@Ralizah Glad your comment here is the first of the page so more people will see it.

Glad we get one more game to debate which will be the best in the end. Maybe they can figure out how to bring the series to the switch. Maybe make it handheld only so we can still draw a map or even split the screen display and have half map half gameplay.

@Spoony_Tech It's definitely more of a "greatest hits" sort of game than a proper sequel. The Monster Hunter Generations of the series.

Yeah the cover art is cool. I wonder what the time will be on localization since it comes out in Summer. Maybe by December?

Oh, good, so I'm not the only one struggling to find a cheap copy of Etrian Odyssey Untold 2. I n my case, though, it just doesn't seem like it'll be worth more than $20 to me...

Anywho, suuuuper excited that this will be featuring a mix of different classes from each game. It also seems to homage different gameplay elements from 3, 4, and 5, so I think this might just be a worthy sendoff for the series.

...With that said, I hope Atlus isn't planning on skipping western releases of Persona Q2 and Etrian Mystery Dungeon 2...

@CanisWolfred There has yet to be an Etrian game that wasn't localized. I think we're safe.

Yeah, I think if I had any worries, it was because it looked like the 3DS was going on the backburner, at least in the west. I finally read the article for 3DS releasing in 2019 and beyond, just from Nintendo, and it seems like I'm wrong, and they are still supporting it with first-party titles, so I would imagine there's still interest and sales for it. Plus, they are two brands that have been lucrative for Atlus...I guess you're right. I still got 'em on my wishlist, at least.

Sounds good but then again Etrian music has never disappointed me.

I always love how Atlus can do a special edition with no extra charge. Just about every 3ds launch has had something to go along with it. I'm so glad that Sega doesn't seem to be messing with how they do business.

@Spoony_Tech I was very apprehensive about how they would change with SEGA, but they've integrated the company into their fold beautifully.

I've been going digital with everything lately, but I think I'll stick to physical with Etrian Nexus. I love their precious launch editions.

EDIT: Punctual as ever. Thank you!
