Persona 3:
>tarot themed monster of the month
>hard time limit on quest
>dog party member
>introduced having a single, personal, unique persona for anyone that's not MC
>characters evoke their persona by shooting themselves in the head
>Big bad is defeated by the MC spontaneously generating the power of The World, which allows them to win an otherwise unwinnable fight
Persona 4:
>single small town setting
>story focuses on a central murder mystery
>all perpetrated by a sadistic guy that accidentally gained supernatural abilities
>most party members only join after defeating them in battle
>MC is a 2cool4school popular-with-the-ladies optimistic rogue that starts with his own persona right off the bat, while everyone else must gain there's through an arduous and painful trial
So given that the previous 2 games have just been Stardust Crusaders: The Game and Diamond is Unbreakable: The Game respectively, what can we guess about Persona 5? The obvious choice seems to be Stone Ocean, as it takes place entirely within a prison and all the motifs we've seen so far for P5 point to emancipation being the major theme. If it is SO themed, could Potter-kun not be the MC, but instead be the Anasui character? Will we see a female MC? Or maybe it's not SO themed, maybe it's based on Vento Aureo or hell SBR or Jojolion based. Clearly cell-phones are important, and those were used a lot more in VA and Jojolion than SO, so that could be evidence for either of those.
Thoughts?

Or it could take place in italy
>>275815885
The teaser trailer they put out looked pretty clearly like it was Shibuya though.
Italy would also be cool, but I doubt it's happening.
>>275815668
>So given that the previous 2 games have just been Stardust Crusaders: The Game and Diamond is Unbreakable: The Game respectively, what can we guess about Persona 5?
Vento Aureo: The Game. Potter-kun confirmed for generating an even more powerful Arcana than the World/Universe in the end and fucking up the Big Bad effortlessly.
Also, the best character in the game will die.
Also
>game's theme is freedom
This is going to be so 'Murrica.
Aww man, I would kill for an SBR-based Persona game. That sounds amazing.
There is a twist that makes the whole game worth it, and /v/ will leak it and ruin it for everyone
>>275815668
It'll try to pander to the same crowd that bought Persona 4 Golden.
>>275815668
Black antagonist? Will a character get gangraped by the KKK?
>>275816476
What's the difference between the crowd that bought P4G and vanilla P4?
>>275815668
>Persona 5 is all about being Gangstars
I'm cool with that.
>>Big bad is defeated by the MC spontaneously generating the power of The World
>Stardust Crusaders: The Game
Shit. The parallels go deeper than I thought.
>>275816928
How so?
>>275815668
>Thoughts?
tl;dr go back to tumblr with your shitty speculation and wait for some actual info to be released
>>275817884
Ah, that makes sense.
Can't wait for Stone Ocean, then.Everyone dies at the end and a side character brings everyone back with the power he got from his friends?
It's going to remove RPG elements entirely and dedicate all resources to being a VN waifu simulator
>>275818325
So basically Katawa Shoujo?
>>275815668
>If it is SO themed, could Potter-kun not be the MC, but instead be the Anasui character?
This picture begs to differ.
>>275818426
According to Atlus, the Persona series started at 3.
>>275820279
>he's looking away
It's just Atlus reminding us that we have to go through more P3 and P4 merchandise before getting to P5.
Dont we get info on the 21st? or something?
So I've never played a Persona game(let alone an SMT game) but I am looking for an RPG for my Vita. Is P4G good for someone who is inexperienced with JRPGs?(my favorite is FFXII)
It's been mentioned a few times before, but I think it's obviously going to be Persona 4 with internet subbed in for the TV world. It'll be about the loneliness that social media and the internet age have created.
>>275821343
Yes. It's very unique. I'd recommend playing Persona 3 FES first, and not playing the PSP version until you've beaten FES.
But there's nothing wrong with jumping straight into Persona 4.
>>275821343
Persona 4 is pretty accessible. You'll probably like it.
>>275820914

Februrary 5th. Where did you hear about the 21st of this month?
>>275821343
see pic related, but yes to your question.
>>275821372
I just hope it's not a smartphone app, that would be dumb.
>>275821343
If you were open to playing the inferior version of P3, P3P, you could play the entire main Persona series on a Vita.
QUICK!
Atlus wants you to decide what item the characters should use to summon their persona.
What do you pick?
>>275822282
Dildo.
>>275821881
>inferior
This is what FES-kiddies actually believe
>>275823320
Suck my dick.
>>275816406
but that was only true for P4 because the whole game revolved around a mystery
>>275822282
Breaking chains.
>>275822282
nothing
just have them appear out of nothing like they used to
also make them have uses in the real world so there can be wacky misadventures about using a persona for personal gain
>>275824046
I think being spoiled on door-kun dying was a bigger deal for me than Adachi.
The whole last few months of P4 are a mindfuck even if you know who the murderer is. In P3, the story was less complex and so knowing that he sacrificed himself basically spoils the entire twist.
>>275821854
Jump Festa or some rumor.
>>275824179
You literally just described Persona Trinity Soul.
>>275824716
but what if it was good though
>>275822282
posing
>>275820421
That's sad, because Persona 2 was the best one (I liked 3 and 4 a lot, but 2 was way better).
>>275821343
There's ff6 for psvita, also chrono trigger and chrono cross.
But yes, you can start with p3 or p4.
typical jrpg friendship is magic theme
>new student to school
>meet a wacky cast of characters
>some midnight tower
>menus are probably phone-themed
probably the most 'mature' theme in the game is going to be characters have something to hide, it gets revealed, and then they gain some additional power.
>>275815668
>Persona 3 MC spontaneously generating the power of the world
He's the universe you retard Yu is the World
>>275825842
The Universe is another name for The World in tarot decks. Decks either have one or the other.
>>275826383
In Persona The Universe is different from The World, it's much stronger
>>275826869
And Star Platinum's World is stronger than Za Warudo
The reference pile just doesn't stop from getting taller
>>275827056
Why can't we just admit SMT, Persona and Jojo are both good series?
So was that flaming figure in the trailer his Persona, or a Shadow/Demon?
>>275827283
I didn't say they aren't. In fact, I think all the Jojo references in Persona make me like it even more.
