>10 yearsI'M NOT OLD
no way it's 10 years old haha u got me OP good one
>>747650220You picked the right ending didn't you?
>>747650220>10 years agoMake it stop
Ann love.
Has enough time finally passed for us to finally admit that Haru is the best P5 girl?
I’m turning to dust and everything I can perceive and comprehend is decaying and falling into entropy in real-time
eating teacher pussy
>>747650220>10 years oldOh no, most zoomers can't even play the game anymore without being hypocrites, since most of them are adults now. And they would never spend time with teenagers!Oh, forgot, most zoomers only watched let's plays on youtube and never played any persona game.I wonder what they would think of the IP considering Hitler is literally in 2?
>>747650220dogshit "game"
>>747650220It's my favorite JRPG of all time (I do like Royal a bit more, but it's still P5), so yeah I had a pretty good time with it.Funny thing is that I got into Persona at just the perfect time>Played P3FES because some anon here recommended it to me>Liked it, went onto P4>Liked it more than P3, checked to see if there was anymore after finishing it>No bullshit. That specific day I checked was the day of the western release of P5 and I had no idea, so all that shit about the massive delays and localization timing completely missed meBut yeah, shit was cash. I still find it kind of hard to go back to the original 3 and 4 these days because the gameplay quality leap is so massive that those previous 2 games (especially 3) feel so lacking in comparison.Futaba best girl, Kawakami a close second.Best character overall is Sojiro, I can admit that moment where Futaba calls her dad actually made me shed some tears.
>>747650220I was told the game was good and it was kinda just ok.
>Dood.... adults are like evil or something>Dood... God is le bad>Dood..... Laws are hecking evil because they don't allow me to turn my children transIs this the dumbest game ever plot wise?
The cast are now old enough to be my children.
>>747650220I like 3 better than 5, specially fes, has much more soul even though it's outdated as hell.
>>747651672Hitler with shades is the what most people associate P2 with, so it's normal.
>>747651839no but you might be the dumbest person ever for being too low iq to understand the extremely simple messaging in a persona game
i got kicked out of med school because i played p5 for 5 days straight which led me to failing my final exams
>>747651839Nice try jew. Upset Atlus keeps pointing out your bullshit in every single game?
>4/7/2027 will be 10 years since P5 released in America>Remember having 2007 nostalgia threads when it came outI remember thinking how little I accomplished in 2017, too. In retrospection, I did a lot more compared to this past decade by comparison.
>>747650220Game literally starts off too strong and the rest of the game couldn't keep up with a villain like Kamoshida.Ryuji is shit compared to Yosuke.I actually cannot remember a lot of themes from it aside from Beneath the Mask, Kaneshiro's palace, Futaba's palace, and Sae's palace.I also laugh at dubfags who would listen to a dude named Xander voice Joker when in JP we got fucking Lelouch.
>>747651792>It's my favorite JRPG of all timeThat's sad
>>747650220Starts out pretty interesting and kinda fizzles out by the middleOST blends well with the game although I’m not too fond of it The cast is mediocreSumire is super cuteSolid 8/10 enjoyed metaphor more.
>>747651174Akechi is forgiven lol?
It was fun discussing things with vee as we all progressed through the game.Kinda funny how the threads died down the more burnt out anons would feel. I think the game would be a whole lot better if they had cut Shido's palace and maybe Yabaldaoth or whatever final dungeon.
>>747652074I'm playing through Royal now and was Kamoshida's Palace always thus padded abd hand holdy? Its like every progression is followed by a shitty engine of Morgana wanting to teach you something that you can't skip.
>>747652103Name your favorite JRPG.I'm not going to call it shit, just want to see if it's one that I also really like.
>>747652258Sands of Destructionjk
You should've been able to romance anyone in the game
>>747652074>Game literally starts off too strong and the rest of the game couldn't keep up with a villain like Kamoshida.God I hate niggers who can't understand the point of shit like this.I'm tired of saying it but whatever:That's the point. YOU become less personally involved so you don't care anymore. The constant viewpoint of the faceless NPCs is you. It mirrors how you only view it as entertainment. You don't engage yourself with any meaningful amount of thought into the progress of the villains. You just want drama. Rape! Confrontation! Vengeance! You stop giving a shit as more and more victims become involved, as the villain gets more distant and hard to nail down. Less personal.Having every single villain be a personal encounter would ruin the message of P5.
>>747652074>Game literally starts off too strong and the rest of the game couldn't keep up with a villain like Kamoshida.In terms of the villain, I kind of agree, but I think people only remember him more because he's one of the few that specifically fucks with Joker from the jump and you get to see him be an ass for way longer.Gameplay-wise that first dungeon fucking sucks and it gets blown out of the water by the later ones in the game.Also he doesn't even keep his best villain title in Royal because Maruki is gigakino.
>>747652253I think you visit it at least 3-4 times and have to spend at least 2 days on it before you're given the clear to beat it entirely. A number of palaces have that roadblock.
>Just realized we're 2 years away from Persona 4 being 20 years old
>>747650220P5 was pretty good. Sort of fizzled out towards the 2nd half with how weak of an antagonist Shido was. The reverse twist with Akechi was very kino though. P5R is absolutely fantastic though. The new chapter with Maruki is the best part of the entire game and Maruki is one of my favourite final bosses of any JRPG ever.
>>747652319Fuck the game even says the exact same shit. The retard NPCs viewing the phantom thieves as entertainment lose their sense of justice as time goes on. It's easy to get emotional about a teacher violating a student.A CEO abusing his workers? Crime syndicate? Politics? Who cares. Doesn't involve me.This sort of sheep like mentality is the entire core of the game. The deeper the corruption runs, the more catastrophic it is, the less people care.Bring back the funny rape teacher hehe!
>>747652074Persona dubs are very good.
>>747652319>>747652553>its supposed to be shitHere we go...
>>747652537KINO KINO KINO KINO and KINO. KINO is coming home soon. I can't wait to play P4 Demake and I especially can't wait to play P6. Something to look forward to.
>game releases>bought it day one as it got its western release>had a shitty job and the fact that I had p5 to play at the end of the day comforted me>would sleep to behind the mask playing >intentionally made it so it took some several months to finish itI really miss having an experience like this.
>>747652625Nice joke.
>>747652425Kamoshida himself is not interesting its just the setup and scenario for him gave a sense a weight and tension that none of the others felt
>>7476526254 landed a lot of good ones who became too big to bring back in Revival but that doesn't take away 4 having a ton of good JP voice casts too.>Yui Horie>Ami Koshimizu>Romi Paku>Rie Kugimiya>Kana HanazawaEven girls like Yumi was voiced by Kanae Ito.Kanji is fucking Gilgamesh/Domon
>>747650220what do you mean 10 years old? it's a modern jrpg and it came out last year
>>747650220i cant for the life of me understand the weird negative reaction this game gets here sometimes lol. the style and presentation are great, it has some of the most fast and fun turn based combat in probably any game, the dungeons btfo past persona ones easily, it has a lot of the best npcs and social links, idk what problems people have with the party members but personally i liked them, i thought the way the story escalates to bigger targets and an interconnected conspiracy was cool, and royal just makes it all better. its obviously not perfect but its a pretty well done and enjoyable game, it wasnt even my first persona but i think its my favorite by far. pretty kino game
>>747653040>i cant for the life of me understand the weird negative reaction this game gets here sometimes lolPeople have taste
>>747653040P5 is what exposed Persona to the masses and /v/ just works like that.Believe it or not /v/ was generally positive towards undertale when it released.
>>747652782lmao mad
>>747653040I don't think it's hard to see why the game has so many that hate it, especially with how it's blown up in popularity. But the fact that we still can't shut up about it a decade later does showcase that it left a major impact.I don't think you'll see too many anons that will just say it was okay, it's either the death of JRPGs or one of the best video games ever made.
>>747652074>>747652792
I remember how unbelievably hyped P5 was, seriously the wait for that was truly agonizing. I hope P6 captures some of that magic.
>>747653040This is /v/. Popular = bad.
>>747650220>No Persona 6 in 10 yearsEven AAA slop doesn't take this long
>>747653040I like the UI, it's frankly the biggest contribution to the franchise, and the updated battle mechanics like Baton Pass. I just think 3 and 4 did some of the story elements, cast dynamics, and social links better. It's funny to see that once Revival comes out then Royal and Reload can stand next each other and not be compared by UI and gameplay modernization and instead be more accurately appraised for how it executed its story and characters.
>>747653252You missed one
>>747653281The leaks kinda ruined the pre release magic persona games usually get.For P5 all we had for the longest time was that poster with the chairs and that was it.
>>747650220I'm going to sleep right after reading this. Fuck me.
>>747652074P4 had the better party but P5 had the better side characters
>>747653281P6 is going to be the biggest JRPG release in some time. Don't know if its possible to deliver on 10 years of built up hype, but this place is going to go bananas once they properly start showing it off.We already had the board get flooded with P6 threads just from some fucking leaks lmao
>>747653281>Almost everything got spoiled before we've seen 1 second of footage
>>747653515>better side charactersIn P5 I liked>Sojiro>Yoshida>Takemi>Iwai>HifumiIn P4 I liked>Kou>Shu>Nanako>Dojima>Naoki>AiHaving everyone relatively close together in a small town did enhance the experience for me in 4. Especially how frequently Yosuke pops up to help you out. Nanako and Dojima did a lot of heavy lifting too.Adachi is also superior to Akechi who getting painted as your rival felt laughable in vanilla 5.
>>747653483We still know very little about P6 even with all the leaks. The leaked cheevos tells us almost nothing about what the story is about or who the characters are.
>>747650220Kasumire best girl
P4 having a whodunit plot alongside the whole "this is what everyone wants" greater scope villain also helps out a lot.That scene at the hospital where you can fuck up and get a bad ending also enhances this.
I'm one of those people that also have it as one of their all time favorite games.The biggest compliment I can give the game was that I spent 100+ hours on my first run and I still wanted more when the credits rolled, I genuinely would've been okay if the game lasted another 100 hours. Never before or since have had that feeling about any game that long.Knew right at that moment I had played something that I really loved.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghmaEb5mThw&list=RDghmaEb5mThw&start_radio=1
>>747653040>i cant for the life of me understand the weird negative reaction this game gets here sometimesThe game brought in a slew of tourists and larpers who only care about its presentation and thats it and its why any discussion towards P5 reveals that a lot of people defending do so because it was the first game that got them into the genre whereas its biggest detractors were already hard-core fans to begin with.>it has some of the most fast and fun turn based combat in probably any gameIts also insulting piss easy and requires no sense a thought or skill because the game doesn't want you to ever fail>the dungeons btfo past persona ones easilyThey're literal hallway simulators with no sense exploration because the game frequently roadblocks you from doing anything off rail for too long.>it has a lot of the best npcs and social linksThe only way you'll be saying this if P5 was the only Persona game you've played or the first one because this is straight up bullshit >i thought the way the story escalates to bigger targets and an interconnected conspiracy was cool, and royal just makes it all better.And then it all falls apart.>>747653241>But the fact that we still can't shut up about it a decade later does showcase that it left a major impact.Eh? A lot of P5 discussion is about its sales and thats it whereas P4 which is older keeos proping up because people found something new to discussion about years later for better or for worse, the fact that people are afraid that Revival will fuck up the characters is proof of this.
>>747653743>Iwai>HifumiThese characters a boring. People just like them because of their cool designs
>>747654049>Detractors were already hard-core fansWho are the hardcore fans you're speaking of? those who were fans of 3 and 4 likes 5 at the very least. SMT fans don't count and they should stick to their being delusional about their series not being dogshit. JRPG fans will for the most part tell you it's good so once again I ask who are these hardcore fans you're speaking of?
>>747653040Jarpigs being anally hurt about P5's success is reminiscent to OOTsnoys seething about BOTW.
>>747654483>those who were fans of 3 and 4 likes 5 at the very least.Lmao this is how I know you're a newbabby because nobody hates Persona games more than other Persona fags
>>747654689Go back to the famitsu thread schizo
>>747654815Good argument you got me.
>>747654483>those who were fans of 3 and 4 likes 5 at the very least.3 and 4 fags have been going at it for years zoomie and when 5 came out people took turns shitting on how absolute garbage the writing and characters were and how clearly they were just reheating aspects of P4 again but doing it worse.>JRPG fans will for the most part tell you it's goodThere's literally a fucking meme about how P5 is so overrated that fans genuinely believe that JRPGs didn't exist before it existed. Its literally were the JRPG for people who don't like JRPGs came from.
>>747653040>i cant for the life of me understand the weird negative reaction this game gets here sometimes lolJRPG tribalism and pure envy.
>>747654339You're not wrong. I just like Iwai's ex-yakuza history and Hifumi's looks and actual gameplay mechanic unlocks.
>>747650220Ah this marks year 10 of me having it sealed and thinking "maybe tomorrow"Jesus Christ>>74765129
>>74765022010 years of Makoto being best girl!!
>>747655253People mocking P5 zoomers for being ignorant did not mean people were calling P5 overrated and It wasn't JRPGS for people who disliked JRPGS since nothing about it strayed away from how JRPGS usually made. Nice pic of yourself you got there you nigger.
>>747655387>metacritic
>>747655489>People mocking P5 zoomers for being ignorant did not mean people were calling P5 overratedActually it does because nobody seriously believes that bullshit
>>747655489>and It wasn't JRPGS for people who disliked JRPGS since nothing about it strayed away from how JRPGS usually madeYoutubers like Dunkey and Scott praised it for not being like other JRPGs.
>>747650220P5 is amazing, that's why I played the other spin-offs including P5X
>10 years later>still best girl
>>747655489>People mocking P5 zoomers for being ignorant did not mean people were calling P5 overratedZoomie, who the fuck do you think overrates P5 to begin with?
>>747655769>Jewtubers liked it so It's bad
>>747655987
>>747650220I've never played it despite playing and enjoying 3 & 4
>>747656276Keep it that way
>>747653040There are people here that will dedicate their lives to hating something because it is. This game was loved when first came out
>>747650220it goes for too fucking long, by the hour 80 of P5 i just want it to end
>>747653040because the narrative is boring and plain as fuck, and when you have to read for 90h+ it doesn’t matter is the rest of the game is good, people are going to bitch about it
>>747655949>Hollywood bonus>realism bonus>woke bonus>Persona 5 got the same score without any bonus
>>747653483The leaks to me just confirmed that is more of the same which is exactly what I personally wanted.
Can't wait to see Persona 6 raping FF fans again.
>>747656743Nah it was cool, way more interesting than p3 at least where literally nothing happens until the end
>>747657160I am almost sure P6 might win rpg of the year in 2027
>"villain" is le bad because.... suffering is le good
>>747652867It's weird playing SMT 5 and Naoto is the voice of Abdiel
>>747659880I think Metaphor stole a lot of the unthinking good will Atlus had build up from game criticism shitters
>>747655780people are going to miss Hashinocore Persona when Atlus actually takes spinoffs seriously and does worldbuilding you're supposed to care about or remember
>a game can't have presentation AND quality.Buncha assmad western devs itt seething that the japs can actually deliver.
>>747653040Persona 5 much like Final Fantasy VII made jarpigs seethe with how massively successful they are.
>>747660570>Hashinocore persona>the biggest dogshit ever that has literally made people think Persona is wokeslop lmao nometaphor is dogshit too
>>747660586It's not westerners It's raped jarpigs who hates P5.
>>747650220>Share your thoughts and memories of playing it.
>>747660586Watching Ubisoft devs go fucking ballistic over how people could fathom playing Elden Ring without DLC news, quest markers, and all that bullshit littering the screen was a riot.
>>747660187Why'd he filter /v/ so hard
>>747660187If you agree with maruki you are a fucking hypocrite
>>747660663Metaphor is better than most JRPGs that came out recently.
>>747660614>Persona 5 much like Final Fantasy VIIWhy would anyone be seething? Look at the state of both series. This is exactly what anon>>747654049 was talking about people don't discuss P5 they just want to larp about how successful it is
>>747661028I mean, 1 being better than 0 makes it the default "better" when no fucking JRPGs have come out recently other than what? Fucking FF? That one forgotten game by the old Persona dev team?
>>747650220It was my first persona and I only finished two or three social links.The so called gameplay got pretty stale halfway through the game.Learning trivia in school was neat and the coffee theme was nice. I bought some jamacian blue beans just to try it but I expect you need to be good at coffee to make the experience special.I went with the teacher because I had a crush on teacher back when I went to school
>>747654049>They're literal hallway simulators with no sense exploration because the game frequently roadblocks you from doing anything off rail for too long.I was maybe with you until this but shut the actual fuck up you worthless contrarian faggot. Saying this has just exposed you as having no genuine opinions. You don't hate P5 for any logical reasons. You're just a contrarian who hates it for being popular and this statement is proof. This is not an opinion a logical mind can hold.
>Played P5 on release while I was in highshcool and romanced kawakami because I had a crush on one of my teachersWhere did time go.....
>>747661208Play a game with actual dungeon exploration and you'll see that the Palaces in P5 is a joke
>>747650220This game has been on my backlog for a full decade, huh? I should get to it one of these days.
>>747661470Most of P5's dungeons are good what are you on about?
If P5 did anything better over the previous persona games is that its dungeons had an actual layout compared to P4's 8 floors of RNG and 2 floors that stayed consistent.But I do agree, they're still pretty unremarkable compared to actual dungeon/enemy placements in other RPGs.
>>747661557Persona 5's "puzzle" dungeons were tedious as fuck. Id much rather have the simple hallways of 3 and 4 than have to slog through that shit.
>>747650220I'll just leave this here for no particular reason
>>747661147>people don't discuss P5This is just a straight up lie. People always wanted to talk about P5 strength and weaknesses. The people who go on about P5 success are contrarians who wants to stand out after it got more and more popular since Joker's inclusion in smash.
>>747661470Like what? You bitched about hallways so which game got dungeons are that not hallways and are made unique?
>>747661557They are fine in your first playthrough, then they become the most annoying thing in the game.
>>747661470Play literally any Persona game outside of 5 you god damn larper faggot.
>>747650220killed the IPwhich is funny because persona killed SMT
>>747661557>Most of P5's dungeons are good>Go down this hallway>wait Joker do this gimmick>now go down this other hallway>wait Joker I sense something >Now go down this hallway >Wait Joker let's not go down there right now
>>747651174>tfw i dont wanna disappoint akechi>but also dont want a world without himIts not fair..
>>747660737/v/ is a bunch of delusional NEETs and actual jews from israel desperate for easy gibs. No self respect or dignity, just diapershitting babies with no sense of free will.
>>747661891>Persona killed SMTI wish it did, nothing of value would be lost if SMT died.
>>747661771>This is just a straight up lie>Read this thread>nobody is actually discussing it
>>747662017SMT VV is not SMT in the same way Metaphor is not EO. SMT is dead, they are simply raping the corpse.
>>747661860Yes and they're being for being straightforward dungeoncrawlers and not wasting your time
>>747650220I got it on release day for PS3. Still haven't finished it. I got to Sae's palace and just stopped. Got Royal like a year ago and I'm halfway through it, I'll finish it eventually. It's just too long.
>>747662057This thread is about P5's 10th anniversary so naturally people will discuss the overall impact the game had on the genre and memories of it, not just mechanics and story.
>>747661831Honestly I half agree, I wonder how P6 could fix that, if they make them unique again they will also be a slog on ng+ but I don't think they will make the main dungeons random again like p4 and p3 so I wonder how they can fix the dungeons in ng plusMaybe a ng plus exclusive shortcut or something? Also did metaphor suffer with this issue too?
>>747661782The Palaces aren't dungeons retard. You literally have a fixed route and you get roadblock if you go outside it, the only difference between them and the ones from P3/P4 is that they're way more slower to transverse through due to all the cutscenes
>>747662268>people will discuss the overall impact the game had on the genre and memories of it,It killed and raped the IP.
P5 is not my favorite game and It's not as good as 3 and 4 but good God, the way people talk about it makes me want to defend every aspect of it
>>747662375Then the discussion is useless as mementos is literally p3/p4 2.0
>>747662493You sound like you love dogshit demakes. Cattle.
>>747662358I doubt they'll do anything but the most simple solution is having the dialogue and scenes turned off for ng+. Having a shortcut kind of defeats the purpose of having dungeons.
PERSONA 5 2
>>747662512Yeah and nobody complains about that because its "we've been down this road before".
>>747662637You like and dislike games based on how much they sell. You have no right to call anyone cattle you mutt.
Let P6 give me the opportunity to just pay to create personas beyond my player level.I really did not care to play through P4G a second time just so I could get to Level 91 to fuse Izanagi no Okami. P5 did that right, even if buying back high level personas did necessitate me farming money off of confused demons for like 2 hours.
>>747662813if it caters to everyone it caters to no one. Popular things can't be good.
>>747662884P5 catered to those who liked P3 and 4.
>>747662945 PQ did, P5 did everything in it's power to move away from P1-3
>>747662493same, but that’s just nu-/v/ in general, you can’t discuss anything here in good faith without a schizo having a melty
>>747663067How can you group P1 and P2 with 3 and then say 5 strayed away from the formula that 3 started?
>>747663067Retard, if anything p5 went back to its roots of p1 and p2 a bit with gun, Shadow taking demon forms in battle and negotiation all coming back
>>747663491P1-3 have a similar tonePQ has a similar foruma to 1-2.P4 "saved" atlus but it's a game that was no longer made for the fans, which is fine because we had other entries. P5 is 10 times worse and now the spin-offs are dead.
>>747663778>P1-3 have a similar tone>PQ has a similar foruma to 1-2.Not even you believe that
>>747663651Royal's third semester shares lots of similarities to the first game as well. P5 was an homage to the entire series.
>>747650220I remember thinking it wasn't as good as P4 when I finished it.
>>747657160>>747659880Step aside
>>747663835
>>747663778I'll give you P1 being dark but 2 literally has lots of silly anime moments similar to the newer game and PQ is an EO game, not a throwback to 1 and 2.
>>747663960>trusting monolith soft after xeno3 and X epilogue
>>747663963Now post the part where we draw the map in p1 and p2
>>747650220I'm glad Atlus ported some of their games to PC. I wouldn't have played P5R otherwise, fun story, kino OST. I hope P6 will be good.
>>747664023I trust them more than Atlus after P3R, Metaphor and how P4R is shaping up, and SE after FFXVI, FF7R and Rebirth.
>>747661660
Imagine a world where P5 actually released on time.
>>747663778>P4 "saved" atlus but it's a game that was no longer made for the fans4 was all of the goofy Innocent Sin was, shut up.
>>747664361Western fans getting anally blasted by this will never not be funny.
>>747650220P5 og is where Persona gameplay peaked..the story wasnt as good as 3's and the party lacked the soul of 4 but the gameplay and dungeons were vastly better...shame royal made it too easy but Sumire and Maruki were still very good and fat better than golden's attempt with Marie.
>>747664361I still can't believe people got mad their anime game got anime fluff in it, like wtf, people would kill themselves if P5 had a hotsprings scene
Anne doesn't really feel like a "Lovers arcana" girl in comparison to the other two.
>>747664808I feel like I wouldn't have paid attention to KaSumire nearly as much if it weren't for the leotard
>>747664808>but Sumire and Maruki were still very good and fat better than golden's attempt with Marie.I at least have the option to ignore Marie unlike Sumire
>>747664912She made me diamonds throughout the game leotard or not her design was peak
>>747664808Sumire was worst than Marie
>>747664808>but Sumire and Maruki were still very good and fat better than golden's attempt with Marie.>Dude, your sister died. Why not just. BE your sister?And people will really sit here and tell you a retard like Maruki should be in charge of mankind
>>747651672retard millennial
>>747664808please don’t pair dogshit like Sumire with good characters like Maruki

>>747665257She's better because she's not an annoying cunt like Marie but she's still pretty shitty.
Persona truth megido tier list
>>747665705Marie is less annoying by virtue of being only limited to the Velvet room and non existent in the story. Sumire is literally unavoidable
I didn't really care about Marie until the epilogue where she had the suit on.
>>747665867But I want to be a high school girl
>>747650220It's a dogshit game that exposed the franchise to normalfaggot troons that now do everything in their power to castrate the franchise
>>747665867Where's p5 tactica
>>747666452No interest in playing it.
>how it feels living long enough to see people actually play these games and realise that 4 is the best one and 3 is complete garbage that was shilled by everyone on /v/ because of le safe edgy aesthetic
>>747666523People still shill 3 here and then(It's still a great game) but yes 4 is by far the peak of the series.
>>747665867PQ1 and 2 are the best personas
>>747665867>P2EP that lowthe beholder of rancid taste
>>747666523P4 is not the best as the story literally needs the whole team to be retards to work, don't forget Yukiko knowing Adachi was guarding the report ever since the start
>>747666720Outside of some gameplay improvements It's worse than IS in every way.
>>747666523the demake completly ruined p3

Does anyone have that "Persona fans be like" video from years ago?
>>747666892It's the opposite actually. People kept screaming about how much sovl FES had.
Despite all the fighting, your faggots are cool, let's hope P6 delivers and the we fight about which of the 6 games are the best
>>747667746P6 is the most anticipated JRPG in recent history. It's FF8 to P5's FF7 so yes their will be lots of threads and infighting.
Still haven't played Royal because I can't be bothered to replay post Yusuke arc
>>747652226In the Royal timeline he survives, but I think he's been arrested.
>>747667746The leaks have made me quite comfortable in what we are seemingly getting and I am really glad that Atlus didn't go and reinvent the wheel. Paranormal Cops also seems like a theme that will be fun to watch play out.
>>747666523P4 was always /v/core
>>747665867trvthnvke
>>747667746Thats what I like about this fanbase is that its among the last few with any sort of ribbing is a commonplace because tastes are so different that of course people will prefer different games over others for different reasons its why people hate homogenization of making everything the same.

You didn't romance this stinky gremlin, did you?
>>747668686We romance kino here sir.

Royal saved this game.>>747651174Yes. Maruki did nothing wrong. Mostly. Love for Akechi.>>747666523P3 was never good besides the cutscenes.
>>747665504Can someone please explain this to me. How can this photo exist if once Maruki was defeated the fake world disappeared which means Joker turned himself in and thus would be locked up during New Years. Or did I miss something
>>747665536Don't pay attention to them. We have one or two queen schizos from /pg/ who hate Sumire for stealing their waifu spotlight.
P4 has a short spin-off manga with Yosuke's initial arrival in Inaba and apparently Naoto has a light novel mini-series.Did P5 just prefer the gacha model instead of the multi-media approach?
I love her so much bros
>>747665504>Senpai, I’m here to assist you in a fight and be all mysterious in the prologue to hype up my appearance!>Senpai, what a coincidence to bump into you and somehow not know the rumors about you that were spread on your first day despite everyone else knowing them.>Senpai, let’s start a confidant but also have it blatantly show that there’s more to my character since it only maxes out at 5!>Senpai, let’s keep bumping into each other but I won’t participate with the rest of the group because I’m busy! But I will hang out with Akechi-kun!>Senpai, now that I awakened to my Persona, I’m going to do absolutely nothing because joining the Phantom Thieves would require the writers to somehow fit me into the main story.>Senpai, I’m sorry for failing you into the palace! I just needed to show how incompetent your team was on the day of your most important plan!>Senpai, now I actually want to join the party! But you won’t let me because that would require making new animated cutscenes…>Senpai, now that you’ve maxed out my confidant and we’re dating, we can only go on 2 dates despite every other girl getting more.>Senpai, allow me to be the last person to say farewell to you in an animated cutscene, and because of that you won’t even get a farewell gift from me and I won’t even acknowledge that we’re dating when I say goodbye.
>>747666452>p5 tacticanophono played that shit
Will Revival do justice to Pursuing My True Self?
>>747669706I hope so, i am still curious about Heartbeat, Heartbreak
>>747650220Has it really been 10 years already...
>>747669706They already fucked up I'll face Myself.
>>747650220I recently finished Royal for the 1st time after getting hooked on SMT/Persona last year. Overall, I really enjoyed P5. The story felt more apropos now than I reckon it did a decade ago. The civilians in game growing more apathetic and using the Phantom Thieves to vicariously express their frustration without enacting real change felt very true to life. I also liked how the game emphasizes the importance a change in perspective has in changing your own life. The final vanilla dungeon shows how ordinary people are in a prison of their own design, and that only you can break yourself free from it.I graduated with my BASc this summer, but I still felt awful for living like a recluse and spending the last five years going through the motions. P5 and NHK (which I also watched recently) came at feels like the right time.As for general thoughts and opinions, the game looks fantastic. The game got several laughs out of me: the maid reveal, the boat ride w/ Yusuke, Ryuji no-way-fag'ing Ann at the gym, Mishima dying in the bathroom during the Hawaii trip. Maruki may be tied with Adachi as my favorite Persona antagonist. Akechi dropping all pretenses and embracing his violent nature was fun; it reminded me of Raiden during the Monsoon fight. The music was excellent. Lastly, the setting and music for the casino made for one of the coolest scenes in a game ever.Also, my picks are Hifumi, Makoto, and Sae. I like the classy/intelligent types.>>747652319I'm glad someone else picked up on that. The whole Haru arc felt like the Thieves were acting out of obligation to an emotional/irrational public, which of course came back to bite them post-assassination.
Teddie > Morgana
>>747668023>P6>more anticipated than FF7 remake finalekek nice try
>>747669685Game is good though.
>>747672271>implyingImagine P6
>>747672413oops, i fucked the pic up
Have the time jannies in FF7 remakes actually done anything in the 2nd game?
>>747664361>let's beat up our friend who saved us for making us think he died even though he didn't do it on purposeHow was this supposed to be funny?
>>747650220It was good but their are flaws for sure. There's a lot of repetitive dialogue, middle part drags, Makoto and Futaba are pretty shitty characters that hog the spotlight, Haru's intro is weighed down by Morgana's bitchfit. But it's overall a flashy good time and it got me into Persona/SMT and fusion autism.Kawakami, Tae, Ann best girls.
>>747650220I'm still playing it, the game didn't click for me at first and I played Persona 4 in 2011, loved Arena and everything that came in between. Snoys were so annoying with it since they had no other exclusive despite never playing Persona before, I was a bit put off but in general the game just didn't do it for me.But now, after the Madarame palace it really picks up and I've been having a, dare I say it, heckin blasterino with it, 60 hours in so far, I really don't want it to end.
>>747669294Are any of the PT strong enough characters to hold a spin-off?
>>747671318>They already fucked up I'll face Myself.Its not easy being deaf
>>747650220I just hope they don't fuck up the music for Persona 6.
>>747653281I'm looking forward to it, too. I just hope there aren't any more big leaks. While posting during the build-up to release is fun, I'm willing to take an Internet sabbatical if a bunch more stuff comes out prematurely.
>>747673101>But it's overall a flashy good time and it got me into Persona/SMT and fusion autism.I will always appreciate P5R for adding the "traits" to each demon even if some are generic and also making that fusable, i hope SMTVI adds them to the demons too
Is Strikers worth it? Is the story good? I wanna pick it up after I'm done.
>>747673236They're all socially shunned as outcasts by design so the only one I can really think of is Ann, Ryuji, and Makoto dealing with Kamoshida before the protag arrives.Maybe something with Makoto and Sae.Akechi to bank on the fujos maybe, make him less of a laughable rival.
>>747673509>Is Strikers worth itIf you can deal with Musuo slop its actually solid.>Is the story good?The general consensus is that its not only the best P5 spinoff in terms of story but its actually better written than the main game story
>>747667721fes does what the demake don't
>>747673424>I'm willing to take an Internet sabbatical >he thinks that's possible in 2026just use filters man
>>747650220I stopped playing after the second Palace.
>>747664808I still don't understand what the fuck were they thinking with Marie.
>>747674794She's basically supposed to be a stand-in for Izanami, fulfilling a character niche that Persona hadn't done at the time (Tsundere) and trying to make her hip and trendy by giving her hot topic whore clothes
I like metaphor more these days but the original p5 is something I'll always remember fondly, shame what's happened to the series and the community around it since, hopefully P6 can turn it all around
>>747673697lollmao
>>747675014Its funny because Marie its a quite big reference to Megami Tensei, where the Mc was Izanagi's reincarnation and the heroine was Izanami's reincarnation(thus giving the megami tensei title), so in P4G we got the Mc with Izanagi as a Persona and Marie with being a reincarnation technically of Izanami
>>747675542Its funny because its true
>>747650220When's the remake coming out?
>>747650220>10 yearPretty sure it came out 3 years ago.
>>747675825After P6
A WORLD WHERE SHIHO IS NOT RAPED IS A WORLD THAT DOES NOT DESERVE TO EXIST
>>747650220I thought it was a 2015 game so I thought it was already 11 years old.
>>747676278>
>>747676278you can't unrape the raped
>>747672712SEETHING gaijin-san wwwww
>>747673489>Traits Those are nothing compared to the crazy shit you can pull in SMTVV with passives
Rape is bad
>>747676836I feel like VV is only halfway there. There's only a tiny number of actual CCG style combos and the vast majority of traits and magatsuhi skills are just +1% sloppa
>>747676802>DO NOTU INSURTU JAPANESE HUMORU IT IS NUMBAH ONE COMEDYU IN THE WORRDU!!!!!cope more slantoid
>>747677876>
>>747678783Hory shit, anon-san is positivery FUMING
>>747650220Cringe for 70 hours but I played because I thought there must be twist that changes how lame and retard it was. It felt like getting lectured by a teen about comunism and why it works.
This game literally saved japanese games and rpgs. Before P5 japanese rpgs were relegated to handheld hell or were total kusoge for the entire ps3 and ps2 generations.
