What?
Etrian Odyssey Nexus is a dungeon-crawler turn-based JRPG developed by Atlus and published by Sega. Released in Japan on August 2nd, 2018, and in North America and Europe on February 5th, 2019, EON is the final Etrian Odyssey game on the 3DS, which makes sense, because the 3DS is rapidly approaching end of life.
In the spirit of being the final game on the console which really propelled the series from being very niche to not as niche, EON is a celebration of the series so far, with a whopping 19 classes, all but one of which return from previous games, and a selection of Labyrinth locales from previous games alongside a few new ones (though all but a very small amount of the layouts are new).
Why?
Because I love this series, and because EON is a celebration of it.
I prepared myself for this LP for a while by means of the Japanese version, so even though we’re a mere day out from the NA release date at time of writing, I’m ready to go.
Don’t worry about my EOU LP, by the way, it’ll be finished up as I’m doing this one, though given lower priority since it’s pretty close to the end.
Who?
Besides myself, joining me will be a few friends of mine: Reco, who also co-commentates EOU with me, Angel, my co-writer and EOU co-commentator as of very late, and Afilitaria and Mutie, new members of our team.
Oh yeah, all of the narrative characters were contributed by members of the EO LP Discord, which is a cool place for cool people and you should totally join it so you can listen to me babble about these damn games.
Where?
Glad you asked.
Oh, by the way, no spoilers. At all. Got it?
