Demons ready for summoning, Shin Megami Tensei: Imagine goes open beta
Filed under: Betas, New titles, News items

For anyone whose played Persona 3 or the more recently released Persona 4, an MMO set in the world of SMT is a very interesting proposition. The game has all the demon fusing and combat from the other games (beyond even the Persona series) but it's all done in real-time instead of through turn-based combat. We're curious to see how this handles, as our guess is that it's likely more of a quasi-real-time ala standard MMO design in games like World of Warcraft.

It's kind of a mix. There are moves that require exact timings on your part, but some other things are handled more automatically.

pet ai is actually really good in this game. its very dungeon grind oriented but the demon fusions keep it fresh. (at least for a while) it is a harder game combat wise, where timing and knowing the opponents weakness is key.
