[/hide]Lol what is this monstrosity?
-
That's all I see whenever a question is asked in the Japanese history class, or any class for that matter.
-
Lol what the xD. I think the questions are pretty easy in general. Well at least in P4G I don't remember P3 questions that well.
Also wow fan stuff moves fast:
Funny comic where Tatsuya(Persona 2) and Yu(Persona 4) are "mobbing" the new P5 protagonist.
Tatsuya getting at him for having the theme color red which was already used in P2.
Yu remarks how he has guts for donning on glasses.
P3 protag doesn't care and says "it's fine".
P1 protag just comments on how this is them welcoming P5 guy.
–-------------------------
Just read a series of most ridiculous post concerning the P5 protagonists appearance.
Like ok I understand that at the end of the day the art style that Persona 3-5 employs is kind of near to what's generally prevalent and popular(obviously there are nuanced differences but it's certainly no JoJo vs any P.A. Works Anime). And there are general limitations within those art styles since they are supposed to be simplifications of the things they represent.But still I do wonder if people have some kind of handicap that state that the protagonists looks so generic he basically looks like Mitsuo from P4 or other dumb comparisons. I mean how do you register stuff in this way do people just take in the general shape of the hair and are blind to everything else? I only can scratch my head at that stuff.

Atlus needs to go back to Kazuma Kaneko. He at least brings a spin on the usual "animaaaiiii" character design formula.
Really miss the man taking the spotlight. Seems Atlus sidelined him a lot. At least give him a new Raidou Kuzunoha or something for those we enjoy his character (and demon) designs. . .

Shibuya shopping district eh?
Persona + World Ends With You crossover!

My reaction to finally maxing out my Academics in Persona 3
My reaction to finding out that even with my Maxed out Academics that I can't yet start the Empress SL
-
I just saw this and it would be one hell of a funny coincidence(I'm somewhat sceptic but this just feels so intentional like some kind of dev inside joke). Not sure maybe it's just them lining it up like this that creates some psychological confirmation bias but dunno I think there's something to it.
What car company logo will be retooled for P6? xDAh just in case if it wasn't apparent it's the high school crests of the different Persona games compared to some car company logos.

I'm a terrible person I just watched the valentines event in P4G on youtube when you choose lovers route with all the girls and just laughed. I always play P4G as an upstanding good friend to everyone it's just funny to see that you're able to be a bit of a scumbag and how the game pretty much tells you that you are with this event. -
Sega announced their lineup for TGS http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=129637103
among those and Atlus 1 hour presentation.…. Not sure if I really want to watch that given that the Persona 5 reveal event was so trollific but I'll probably watch because fuck me.

Here's crossing fingers for news on SMT vs FE game…or better yet...a new Shin Megami Tensei game or spin off that's NOT Persona.
-
I suppose I should find a lamb to sacrifice for anything involving a resurfacing of Break Record…

Oh come one :P I know we're getting pretty bombarded with lots of Persona stuff because spinoffs and shit but it's been like 6 years since the real last mainline game. Whereas SMT IV has been pretty recent. That said I wouldn't say no to some next gen Kaneko in form of Raidou Kuzonoha or Devil Summoner. Not that it would be very likely. No excitement for the crossover game I think I've yet to play one that doesn't suck.

It really feels like Break Record is dead.

I'd wish that they made the persona set of demons more "personaish" than just reusing the demons, I've been playing SMTIV and they do fit a lot with the demon family, but then we go to the arcana and.. it's not as good match.
Even when I played persona 4 of this whole series thing.

How can you even suggest that Mara isn't the perfect avatar for the "tower" arcana :ninja:
-
-_-
Yeah, it's perfect.
-
I always favor Persona over regular SMT, cause Shin Megami Tensei games scares the shit out of me.

I'm just hoping in vain that the SMT IV team is also working on remaking SMT 1-2 in the shadows while they were continously spewing out oversaturated Persona merchandising.
Or…anything that is NOT Persona related that will be also showcased with Persona 5. The lack of Kaneko has been remarkably depressing, but who am I kidding? The Atlus presentation will consist strictly of Persona related content.

So I've been thinking of jumping into the persona series. As someone who has zero sony systems other than a psp, I've been thinking of starting with persona 3 portable. Is this a good place to start?

@Purple:

If it's the only place you can start it's as good as any :D.
But the general rule of thumb is that each Persona is gameplay wise "better"(or rather friendlier) than the last one(it's all quality of life improvements).
Which makes it really really hard to jump back once you're used to those little gameplay optimizations. But then you might just be the type of person that gets really easily annoyed by clunky stuff so jumping back wouldn't even cross your mind.My perfect order would probably be P3 FES->P4 Golden/P4(if Golden is out of question) and if you then still don't have enough go back to P3P.
I say this as someone that started with P4 and went back and had a hard time enjoying big parts of the older games.P3P really feels like a nice supplement to P3 FES, I personally was really missing running around the more elaborate event scenes and the anime cut scenes in it also no epilogue.
But if you play it more as a fresh take on P3 FES it's cool.Ok but then you can actually ignore anything I said and just start there anyway because P3P is still pretty damn good and you might not even care for all that stuff since you won't have a point of comparison anyway.
-
Everyone knows Persona 1 PSP is the best place to start.
-
I started with P3P and I think it's a perfectly good starting point in the series, especially since you won't be constantly comparing the differences between P3P and P3:FES. You can just play through P3P then watch the important cutscenes of The Answer on youtube because honestly it not worth playing through Persona 3 all the way through just to see. P3P has pretty good replayability too with the FeMC (aka best MC :ninja:) playthrough which changes up a lot of the social links.
-
I'm near the end of Portable just finishing up the Vision Quest which is unbelievable hard to do without a guide, that fucking speed door man.
-
Yeah I saw a sale for P3P, but if it's better to start on an earlier one, maybe I'll pick up P1Portable first then and work my way up
-

Good luck P1 and P2 are really archaic(menu navigation feels slow/the way the menus are ordered doesn't feels smart at all). I still enjoyed P2 though.
Don't build expectations on these two games though the series does change drastically with P3. -

So eeeehm…. - 1 lamb? http://www.siliconera.com/2014/09/19/devil-survivor-2-break-record-lives-comes-japan-january-29/
-
Ha ha, yeah I saw that before I went to bed. Fortunately no lambs had to be harmed. Now, if it would help the English version get released at the same time like Overclocked then…
-
Finally finished my first playthrough of P3P was able to beat Margaret wasn't able to put the boots to Elizabeth though. Starting my second playthrough now.
Orpheus Telos
Eventually.

Mark the 4th February in your calendars for more atlus trolling.

They can't fool me again. I know it's just going to be 30hrs of Dancing all night, now featuring everyone's favourite Pochie - Marie
Maybe at the end they'll flash the Persona 5 logo on screen.
-
Sounds boring as hell.
-
Obviously they'll spend a chunk of that time on Dancing all Night, and some random trolling but clearly that's not gonna take the whole 30 hours.
Actually excited for it.
-
The Persona stream is on btw. Preparing for persona 5 stuff any minute now
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
That trailer has me so hyped
EDIT: HD trailer out
-
[EJACULATES EXTERNALLY]
-
Holy FUCK. That was the hypest thing ever. It don't get more stylish than this.
Goddamn. Sign me in right now.
-
I have to the philosophies that the interface designers at that studio have, I find them most agreeable.
Despite it all being a bit more busy compared to p4 it doesn't feel cluttered to me.Super surprised that Igor is back in the same form, since his VA died a while back.
Man super hyped. It's interesting that we only see a main party of 3+ protagonist might just be the first batch but I find the idea interesting to have a smaller party which leaves room to flesh that maincast out more and maybe put some more work into the optional social links.
-
Well if you look in the opening of the trailer that leads to the protagonist being on top of the train there are clearly 3 human figures seen before that all look different so there is at least one we have not seen properly.
-
Good catch! Also when the cats transforms the whole screen is filled with the seven sins in latin.
-
So, you're a high school student by day and a magic thief at night? Neat.
-
I just noticed the all out attack is against demons in the trailer. While the environmental enemies that you can bump into are shadow like.
-
There was no S-link option in the menus, instead it said Co-operation, I wonder how that will change things
-
I'd rather have a greater variety of shadows than demons, the unified theme of "masks" I find it more enjoyable than the randomness of the demons.
Unless you now use shadows as personas and battle demons, then I'm perfectly fine with the change.
Notice how the cat and the MC change eye color through the trailer, obviously the last time that the MC shows up is his shadow, but the cat goes from red, to blue in the cafe/bar, to black, while MC is usualy black, but in the higly stylized scenes are redish/brown.
And yes, there's another human character, with a catlike mask, left. Maybe the cat has multiple forms?
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
No, the other guy is more Tanuki/Fox style, he has something like a tail in his (let's say it's a he for now, it's hard to tell) costume.
Igor now has two little twin assistants. Left has a ponytail, right has leia buns.
-
I'd be 100% happy with them getting rid of the S-Link system or severely downplaying it. Not that I hate it (well, not entirely), but I can only take so many female characters whose main characteristic is that they all sooner or later fall by the main protagonist's immeasurable charisma and overwhelming personality. Tone that shit down and I'm happy.
Everything else, I'm loving. Heists? Catherine-level graphics? Fighting demons again? What looks like pretty impressive mobility? What looks like characters morphing into their personas, Digital Devil Saga style? Yes to everything.
-
All the characters while in dungeons wear masks, direct link to shadows and personas. And there's this:
-
Apparently, the characters will now use two weapons, a physical one and a long-distance one. The MC uses knives + guns, the blond guy pipes + shotguns, etc. . .
-
Pyro Jack…..............is back........ (and Sandman)
I don't even know what to say about this trailer other than it's fucking incredible.

Yeah everyone except Ai:silly:.

Except, and I'll quote the megamipedia here. . .
! But if the Protagonist rejects her proposal, Ai will remain his friend, but subsequent events will cause Ai to become enamored with him.

Yeah I wonder how many people knew that at the outset cause I sure as hell didn't.
-
I would prefer it if they slimmed down on the number of social links and expanded the characters a little more. Some of the social links in previous games felt really well written whilst others were a tad generic. Maybe also multiple choices that have real outcomes on both that character's story and also on gameplay mechanics (if you go down this route she learns fire spells, the other route it's ice spells).
Whatever they do i'm pumped, that trailer was fucking sexy.
-
Nice to see the classic demons coming back as normal foes; it was pretty awkward playing through Persona Q and gradually coming to the realization that there was only one common enemy unique to that game, with all the others being plucked right from Personas 3 and 4.
