Calling it now. /v/ will seriously hate Makoto (fist girl). She looks like she's always angry. She's gonna be called the bitch here for sure.
>they add a milf to every single persona game
>can never romance them
i hate these cockblockers
>>337245595
Best girl confirmed.
>She's a slut even though she's never fucked or done anything sexual with a guy
Personafags really retarded.
Also posting best Main 4 party.
>>337245595
I bet they'll call her a feminist, dyke and a cunt for no reason whatsoever.
>>337245829

Aren't you able to use your whole party in battle now?

>>337246281
>muh i play for waifu's
Fucking cancerous shit eating faggot. We got persona for that shit, no one plays FF for that.
Also there will be girls but no main party retard.
>>337246939
Sorry, I was just hoping for more variety in characters design than simply "White man in a black shirt" "White man in a black shirt #2" "White man in a black shirt #3" etc
>>337246735
Futaba - Necronomicon
Haru - Milady (Milady de Winter)
Makoto - Johanna (Pope Joan)
About time we got /u/ stuff.
>>337246106
It's not. Checked it out myself and it's more that Anne passed her turn to Narutokun and he got a buff.
>>337246735
what did the shirt originally say before the edit?
>>337243885
Remember when Hitler showed up with Nyarlathotep as his persona? Those were the days when Persona had some root on reality.

she's perfection
seriously is there any game that will come out in the next 5 years that can compete with persona 5?
i don't think so
persona 5 will literally the last game i will play
>>337247607
Nice manjaws and manshoulders
>>337244698
I love the new battle UI. No menu to scroll through, everything is mapped to a button. It will take some getting used to, but it should make fights flow smoother than any other turn based system.

Yeah, when the DEVA machine connected to sick Maki sent part of the town to another dimension based on her mind and feelings and few months later everyone in that town forgot about it. Come on, I love P1 and P2 but don't be a fucking nigger
>>337246939
ALL previous Final Fantasy Had girls you idiot its or was part of its charm
>>337243591
Don't care about that slut either way. Futaba all the way.
>>337250669
Man that game was a cluster fuck. I wonder if EP is the same since I haven't played that one.
>>337244354
My fucking waifu.
>>337245829
But that is my party.
>>337245829
What do you expect from a fanbase that was shouting cuck because she rested her arm on Ryuji's shoulder, and was standing next to him in a reaction shot?
>>337251789
That's what you get when rumors become reality. Imagine how fucked we'd be.
>>337252329
Fuck Off faggot and go play western games if you want ugly sluts with diseases.
So the cat's gonna turn out to be a cute girl, right?
why do all the girls except futaba have ugly ass hair rofl
>>337244698
So what's up with the fucker to the far right? Where's his bio?
>>337247607
But /u/ is shit.
>>337243591
Makoto is already best girl.
>>337256345
Makoto is inferior to her mother.
>>337255957
He looks worryingly similar to the guy from Trinity Soul.
We are praying this is not the case.
>>337256442
Oh fuck.
Was Trinity Soul that bad? I never got around to it.
>>337243591
At first I thought Makoto was their class' teacher or something. She looks pretty old tbqh, still a cutie tho.
>>337256595
From what I hear it was dreadfully boring and it was essentially retconned because it said that adults couldn't use persona.
>>337244354
The pic with the Interview caption looks like a casting couch
>>337244882
kid squid best girl
>>337256821
>The pic with the Interview caption looks like a casting couch
Nah, looks more like the interior of an expensive car.
>>337256923
Doesn't really change anything ;^)
>>337246939
I don't, I do play for more than one playable character though.
>>337245829
>>337243885
this literally looks like persona 2 shut the fuck up
>>337252329
The moment she rested her arm on his shoulder she was dead to me
>>337250783
FF1 didn't have girls.
So essentially they took Mitsuru and split her character into two: a serious cuncil prez riding a bike and a detached, naive and elegant daughter of a local businessman.
B R A V O H A S H I N OAt least we got two best girls instead of one this way.
futaba is best girl for those who have patrician comfy taste
>>337256442
>>337256595
It can't be him. TS had a different version of Akihiko than the one in Arena and Ultimax and those are canon.
>>337251789
EP is much more mature on account of them not being allowed to bring about the end of the world again
>>337256595
>Was Trinity Soul that bad?
Bad is being nice. It's awful.
The plot was pieced together so poorly you had to pretty much take notes to really understand what was going on in it, the characters all sucked and had no charm,the persona battles visually sucked and were more of a Monster vs Monster thing than a Stand thing that Personas try to be.
And that shit was generally just like Monster of the Weekish as fuck. Felt very episodic in structure and did not do it right at all as each incident pretty much went back to the standard "HIGHSCHOOL WITH PERSONAAAA" thing.
>>337244882
Christ I wannamax out the S Linkof that detective so much.
>>337261498
>The plot was pieced together poorly, the characters all sucked and had no charm,the persona battles visually sucked and were more of a Monster vs Monster thing than a Stand thing that Personas try to be.
So just like Persona 4?
>>337261002
Their similarities to Mitsuru are purely superificial. Makoto may be a Studet Coucnil President, but she seems to adhere to her own rules much more than anything, probably only using the position to better serve out justice, while Mitsuru followed the rules and didn't really cosnider stuff not related to her job her responsibility, nor did she give severe punishment to rule breaking students. Not to mention Makoto's severe anger as opposed to Mitsuru's calm and collected demeanor.
Haru is a rich girl trying to find some fun in life to escape her gilded cage, Mitsuru never had any feelings like this and seemed quiye accustomed to the wealthy life.
A lot of this is still speculation, but it's a huge oversimplification to say these characters are just Mitsuru 2.0.
>>337262626
>source: my anus.
>>337262779
Except Makoto is clearly shown doing rule breaking and deviant behavior when she's council president
Mitsuru always followed the rules
>>337262626
Mitsuru's escapism is clearly shown several times, at one point she even admits it's her bike. Hanging out with MC during the SL is another form of escapism for her, that's why at the end she gives him the bike keys, as she no longer needs it.
>>337262979
Mitsuru broke into her own school at night.
>>337263081
And then told Akihiko and Junpei to not get answers for tests
Should I bother playing persona 1-2 or should I just play 3 and 4
What's different between Persona and mainline SMT
>>337262245
I didn't watch the P4 anime because I fucking hate P4 and consider it one of those "mechanically upgraded but worse everything else" games so I don't know.
If you mean the games though,no. At least P4 knew how to do its slow ass plot and had one or two decent characters in thereAlthough now that I remember there was one character in Trinity Soul who wasn't completely charmless... But she fucking died because all of a sudden SHES AN ANDROIDLOLANDHERBATTERYISRUNNINGOUT plot twist at the ending half of the fucking show and she is not saved
>>337263126
And? What point would that prove? It's clear she's ready to break the rules if it's for a greater cause.
>>337262779
>A third year who attends the same high school (Syujin High School) as the hero. She has a strong sense of responsibility and morals as a student council president, and she is a very serious honor student who doesn’t compromise.
We know she gets in trouble because it said in the PV that she didn't care about her report card. Put 2 and 2 together, it's not hard to imagine that she gets in trouble for severely punishing students due to her strong sense of morals and clear anger. Again, this is speculation, but she is clearly not just another Mitsuru beyond being a third year at the school and being Student Council President. If anything, she's Hidetoshi 2.0.
Most of what I said as out Haru is grasping at straws, she's not very social and is very naive, but the way she was acting in the PV made it seem like she found thieving to be a lot of fun, seeing as the gilded cage cliche isn't too uncommon, I don't think it's unlikely for this to be the case.
>>337263195
SMT is killing your friends for the sake of LAW/CHAOS/WHATEVER
Persona is about BONDS OF FRIENDSHIP ARE THE TRUE POWER
>>337263081
That was in her S. Link, not to say that invalidates it, but her actual development occurred in the story. The S. Links for the girls in P3 are pretty insignificant to their development and only exists so the S. Link can have something happening, the parts of her character that were actually relevant were all in the main story and she never had any desire for escapism outside of her S. Link, not to my recollection anyway.
>>337263081
She had no choice and was trying to save a life, Mitsuru would never break the rules if it could he avoided, it would seem Makoto would have no issue breaking the rules to get the exact outcome she wants, even if a situation could be resolved without breaking the rules. She also wouldn't hold back no matter the circumstances due to her strong set of morals, whereas Mitsuru only broke the rules because it was literally a matter of life and death.
From what I can guess, a teacher gave Makoto the choice to improve her grades for sexual favors, and she refused. The teacher slandered her or spread rumours. Her being a thief is her revenge.
>>337263195
P1 is like mainline SMT, but shittier in every single way. P2 games have a tedious combat and most retarded demon obtaining system in the entire franchise, but the core gameplay, plot and characters are really solid. I'd recommend you start with 3 FES version, move on to 4 and the 2: Innocent sin.
Mainline SMT is more dungeon crawling oriented, often based on judeo-christian themes and symbolism and moral choices play a massive role. Persona is based on Jungian psychology with elements of various mythologies, depending on the game and, in case of 3 and 4, incorporates visual novel elements which is what made them popular in the first place.
>>337264102
SMT is now also about BONDS OF FRIENDSHIP ARE THE TRUE POWER
>>337264102
>your friends
People you met during the week.
>>337245829
Nah it's gonna be MC, Makoto, Ryuji and Generic.
Probably going to focus using everyone though until endgame when I stick to this.
They really are spoiling the shit out of their own game now. I just wanted a release date goddamn.
