What is the canon name of the protagonist in Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance?
Posted on 6 months ago by Dawn in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
If you’ve been playing Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, you might be wondering what the canon name of your player character is. With a little digging, we’ve managed to uncover a tentative answer.
Like many RPGs, Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance will allow you to name the protagonist yourself. However, the game does not provide you with a default name to use if you don’t have one in mind or would prefer to go with a canon name, and in-game he is referred to only as “the Nahobino” by party members, or “young man” by Aogami.

[Rapid Review] Monster Hunter Stories for Switch
Posted on 6 months ago by Dawn in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: June 14, 2024
Developer: Capcom
Publisher: Capcom
Monster Hunter Stories was easily one of my favorite titles on the system. The franchise lent itself surprisingly well to the monster taming genre, with a solid (albeit somewhat cliche) story behind it, an accessible rock-paper-scissors style of combat, and a gene system that added an unexpected amount of depth. But it was something of a sleeper hit, and most likely didn’t experience the franchise until the sequel, Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin, arrived on the Switch nearly four years later. Now, just in time for the franchise’s anniversary, Capcom has finally brought the original to the Switch. But is it too little, too late?

Posted on 6 months ago by Dawn in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
If you’re wondering which Miracles would be the best to spend your Glory on in Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, we’ve got you covered here.
Unless you’ve purchased the Mitama DLC, Glory is easily the scarcest resource you’ll have in the game, which is obtained sporadically in small amounts. You’ll have to be very selective about which Miracles you purchase, so it’s important to pick the ones which will give you the most value, especially during your first playthrough.

[Review] Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance
Posted on 6 months ago by Dawn in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: June 14, 2024
Developer: Atlus
Publisher: SEGA
It took almost five years for Shin Megami Tensei V to release after it was first revealed and now, less than three years later, Atlus are re-releasing it as Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance. It’s an extremely bad habit the company has maintained over the years with both the Shin Megami Tensei and Persona series in particular, but it’s difficult to be angry when the amount of additional content added, combined with the quality-of-life changes, transform the game to feel like a completely different title. Any ill will I felt towards Atlus for doing this yet again evaporated within the first half hour, as Vengeance proved to be yet another case of fixing something I didn’t even realize was broken.
