oh
SMT 2 came out in 94
Nocturne 03
SMT4 2013
It's not looking good, 2022 is my optimism that it's not a development hell. They said they are using unreal engine 4, which is new to them.
Not to mention their teams started working on it when they assembled a full staff in January 2018.
Add in Atlus development time, looking like another two years.
I assumed when it was announced they were atleast 6 months into full development.
if they didn't really get into it until 2018 then yeah I agree with you
