Formas are used to create items (go to the Lab to do this).
Demon Fusing and Sources are how you pass on skills. Fusing now have pretty much set choices, so there’s no need to try cancel try like in Nocturne, but you can select, cancel, select for the Sources till you get what you want.
You get Demon Sources by analysing a demon completely then leveling them up once.
Note that it’s quite likely your main character will NOT be the main damage dealer. Due to the nature of the game, and by that I mean how he gets his skills, and you’ll realise why specialising in STR/MAG may not seem as good an idea as it normally is.
Oh thank Jesus ~ lol
I hated having to cancel and reselect over and over again to get the right skills. Granted, I’ll probably end up doing it anyway with the Sources though, it sounds like.
I read that skill changes on level up is still in, from Nocturne, which I kind of hated. I never really wanted to roll the dice on a change when I had no idea what it was going to become. Occasionally, I would just throw caution to the wind and do it, but then it would almost always change into something shittier, imo, then I’d feel dumb. : u
Man, I never got anywhere in Devil Survivor. I just kind of forgot I had that game after a while. : o
I didn’t even especially dislike it or anything. It’s not in my top SMT/Persona games, but I liked the idea for the storyline, I thought it was pretty interesting. I guess I just didn’t like the half-assed SRPG gameplay? I dunno mang.
I found Devil Survivor too tedious. It was alright at first, but essentially you’re playing an SRPG and then you have to play a mini-RPG battle and then back to the SRPG.
EVERY.
TURN.
Anyway, for SJ, I’m in Sector H. Not as infuriating as say, E or G, but daaaamn it’s long.
I really enjoyed Devil Survivor, but then again I haven’t played an SMT game or spinoff that I didn’t like. lol Devil Survivor did get tedious for me though. Not because of the battle system but because I hate escort missions where you have to protect people. Yuzu and Keisuke also pissed me off. lol
Anyway, I’m on my second playthrough for SJ. I’m gonna go for Chaos this time.
Not sure where else to put this info (can’t find a megaten thread) but Persona 2 Innocent is being ported to the PSP hopefully they do an English localization
