Summary

  • Metaphor: ReFantazio includes references to Atlus' past titles through its Archetypes system.
  • Some of the evolved Archetypes in the game have names that reference the likes of Persona, Devil Summoner, and Soul Hackers.
  • Metaphor: ReFantazio also includes achievements/trophies that reference other popular franchises, like The Legend of Zelda and Monster Hunter.

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Metaphor: ReFantazio has now been officially released, and just like Atlus' other games in recent years, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:it's an absolute banger. We can safely say that Atlus would not have been able to make such a good game if it hadn't tweaked and perfected Metaphor's formula without years of experimenting with other JRPGs like Persona, Soul Hackers, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Shin Megami Tensei, and Devil🌜 Summoner, and Atlus has acknowledged this by including little nods to each series in the game.

One place that you'll find a bunch of references to Atlus' other titles is 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:in Metaphor: ReFantazio's A😼rche🎐types system, which is 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the game's own take on the classic J꧂ob system. Afꦛter you've spent a considerable amount of time in Metaphor: ReFantazio, you'll be able to evolve the Archetypes that your party members use, and these evolved Archetypes are where 🐬you'll find your neat little references.

Metaphor ReFantazio Archetypes Include Persona And Soul Hackers Easter Eggs

A skill tree of an archetype called Persona Master

For example, players will eventually come across a character ꩲwho has a special ability to create masks (we're being as vague as possible 🅰to try and avoid spoilers here), and the mask they equip gives them the skills of specific Archetypes. These masks will have pretty familiar names for Persona fans, and familiar tarot art will flash across the screen when they're forged. If that was too subtle for you, the name of this person's evolved Archetype is "Persona Master".

Metaphor: ReFantazio even manage💎s to sneak in a couple of references to other massive franchises, as you can nab achievements/trophies called "Hey, Listen!" and "Monster Hunter", referencing both The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Monste🍸r Hunter respectively.

During our time with the game, we also managed to spot another couple of cool nods to other At💖lus games too. For example, the evolved Archetype of the Summoner tree is called Devil Summoner (after the series of the same name), and the class can even be used to summon various monsters that will be v💛ery familiar to Atlus fans, though they have different names.

Finally, another reference can be found in the game's Seeker skill tree, as the name of the evolved Archetype is Soul Hacker, again a reference to the series of the same name. They're not very subtle Easter eggs, but they're still cute little nods to Atlus' past titles that have help💖e🥂d shaped Metaphor: ReFantazio into the brilliant game it is today. Here's hopi🌳ng that ℱMetaphor becomes a series that's looked back on just as fondly in the future.
