What's /v/'s opinion on persona 3? I'm on January first right now and I'm close to the battle with Nyx. Persona thread I guess.

It's shit. But at least it's not P4.
Fun dungeon crawling RPG with a story that is actually interesting. Good luck with the final boss, it'll be a long one.

Minato is better than brotag, because unlike brotag Minato's a character with some modicum of interesting traits where brotag's just an idealized faggot with zero flaws. Beyond that, great game overall, but I wish the guys had social links outside of P3P FeMC route. Hanging out with Kanji was fun in P4, and I would've liked to spend time with Shinji, Akihiko, and Junpei. Maybe Teamkiller too, but eh, could take that or leave it.

Play a mainline SMT game, It's always fun to see a games roots, and who knows? You might just like it.
Played it like two hours and quit
I knew it had VN parts and all but shit was taking too long. All I've done in that time was go into the stupid dungeon and fight the same lame ass shadows that are weak to my only attack, three fucking times. The rest was all text/cutscenes.

I started devil survivor over clocked and smt 4. I gotta say they're pretty fun games. I got stuck really early on though on Medusa in 4. I might just get back to playing it when I beat p3.
>>321918158
I liked it but never got too far because i just couldn't handle not controlling my team. I also refused to play portable.

Why is this so funny
>>321918158
It'sworsethen P4 but it's still pretty fun.

It's great but only play FES

>mfw the first time I checked the date
Persona 3 has such a great soundtrack. I love how tartarus's music changes slightly on each level leading up to the 6th floors track. It really shows pregression through the game.

I'm playing fes now actually. Is the answer any good? For reference I already hate Yukari but I hear she gets worse.
I got to the second section of Tartarus and just stopped playing. No longer fun. More work than play. It was my first time playing and I was using the social link guide anyway because I could not be bothered with the random bullshit. Why the fuck should I miss large portions of the game just because I didn't see someone on an exact day.

If 20 more hours of tartar sounds fun, go for it. Don't play it for the plot. And when you don't care about the plot, Yukari's shit is actually amusing
Warning: No Persona Compendium, so make retaining Boost/Amp and Resist/etc. across your Personers a priority (if it wasn't already)
BABY BABY BABY BABY BABY
It's a very fun game, i've played it like 4 times
Wish they would bring multiple weapons and weapon fusion back

>using a guide
There's your problem
You're supposed to do the ones you like, not every single one, that takes away all the fun.
If you want to do others you can always play again in NG+ an do them
I dumped over 320+ hours into it and didn't put it down for almost 2 years when I had no friends, family, or job to keep me occupied

Accurate representation of having max social stats
P3 was too annoying, not controlling your party was the worst.
P3P was okay, the VN stuff is not that bad since the animations in the original are kinda shitty anyway, also, you get to play as a qt

By far the worst Persona, compared to it Persona 4 is... "Golden". The "Dungeon crawling", if we can call like that a fucking tower 200 floors high, is obviously the most linear ever seen in the whole MegaTen franchise. Social links are introducted here but they are too fucking complex. The wrong answer can fuck up all the work you've done until then. The fighting system is just confusing and YOU CAN'T CONTROL DIRECTLY YOUR PARTY. That's the biggest flaw a JRPG could have (Yeah i know P3P solved this, but what if someone wants to play FES?).
Also Minato is an edgy fag with the characterization of a chunk of wood. Yu at least has that special something that makes you empathize with him.

But the MC's are blank states. Both games allow you to be straight up douchebags or a kind hearted person. The only difference is the attitude shown in their designs.
>>321929091
They are blank, indeed. But while Yu gives you a pencil, Minato doesn't. I don't know if you catch the drift. If you don't too bad because i can't explain this very well, it's a thing coming from the inside. Nothing objective T B H, just a side note.
