Bloop-a-doodle, doo!





AdministratorGod of YaBBPosts: 4888Bloop-a-doodle, doo! Fan interview - Devil Summoner! « on: August 21, 2006, 03:33:10 PM » We don't have a lot of time for this one. We're going to put a deadline of 9/1/06 for getting your questions in for consideration.



It is a DoubleJump tradition to feature a fan interview in each of our strategy guides. We're ready to start accepting questions to go into this official strategy guide as well! You can ask questions directed to anyone at Atlus and we'll do our best to get them answered.



It's time to be heard and get your name in print at the same time ? whether you want to practice for the day you become a professional interviewer or simply need to get that question answered that's been burning inside your skull!



Some guidelines and things to remember:



. You won't get paid.

. You will get credit. We can credit your alias or your real name if you tell it to us.

. Questions about what to expect in the game should be avoided. Anything that's going to get answered will be printed in the guide, which will ship around the same time as the game. Therefore questions about what will be in the game probably won't be used since the game will be out by the time the interview has run and everyone will have their answers by seeing it first hand in the game themselves. There may be exceptions to this if it's a good question.



The deadline to get your questions in for the guide is 9/1/06

I was getting tired of that picture too.

Is there a chance of bringing the first two Shin Megami Tensei titles outside of Japan? I know the subject matter of these games, particularly the second one, is in a level of controversy, but it's likely that there are many fans and gamers who want to know the whole story.



If any of these get in, credit me with 'Shinogu126'. « Last Edit: August 21, 2006, 10:47:22 PM by Shinogu » Logged Quote from: Erdrick on May 07, 2008, 02:35:12 PM Thank you for your continued support of everything that is wrong with game design today.

However, does this mean we won't see any more Devil Summoner games set in modern/futuristic times, like the original and Soul Hackers?

Re: Fan interview - Devil Summoner! « Reply #4 on: August 21, 2006, 07:09:04 PM » As far as designs for his characters, both human and demon, are there any that stand out as Kaneko-san's favorites? Also, does he ever find it difficult to mesh the mythological roots of the various demons with his own unique style? Logged

Will we see more of that in this new installment, and might there be any future plans for a SMT game that focuses on a character that transcends all previous SMT worlds? Logged

Just credit me as Angelous. I'm looking forward to both game and guide. Many thanks again Doublejump! Logged

God of YaBBPosts: 659I simply own @ the Atlus Community Re: Fan interview - Devil Summoner! « Reply #9 on: August 22, 2006, 03:00:08 AM » Are there any plans to release Devil Summoner in the US for the PSP? Or Shin Megami Tensei Nine for the Xbox?



Is there anything that had to be edited, changed or removed for the US version?



Will there be any extras or bonuses added to the US version?



Concerning the US title, why did you choose to go with the Soulless Army instead of the Super Power Army? « Last Edit: August 22, 2006, 03:10:03 AM by Dead to Rights » Logged "Give a guy a gun, he thinks he's Superman. Give him two and he thinks he's God."

Where did the idea for the Megaten games come from?



Has the SMT series sparked any controversy in Japan?

What are the chances of getting some of the niftier MegaTen schwag (such as the various manga, card games, or the gorgeous statuettes made by Kaneko-san) in the US? Perhaps even in some sort of collector's set with this or a future game? <3 « Last Edit: August 22, 2006, 11:46:57 PM by Erdrick » Logged
