by the way the MC summons his persona with an evoker before receiving the evoker from Mitsuru

Do you also dislike P4? Because the TV world is pretty much just Tartarus with decor changes, and the school slog is the same.

Did you try Persona 3 Portable

play FES. faster and extra stuff. fast travel and lication finding too.
it is already a big game.

>>337861189
P4 is way better and P5 will hopefully relegate P3 to P2 and P1 status.

So in other words you like P1, Innocent Sin and Eternal Punishment.

In other words, old school vs. current Persona. Which are very distinct from one another.

Yet you can't understand why you don't like P3. Really?

A game being in a series you like doesn't automatically mean you'll enjoy it if it's a distinct shift from previous titles.

Perosna, Persona IS and EP were school themed Tartarus / Shadow World centred games, though.

I like P3 but not P4, and if you aren't into it in the first couple months it probably won't get any better for you until way later in the game. The middle couple months can be a slog

I seriously can't think of a single dungeon in any SMT game where a single visual theme in a dungeon lasts longer than a single visual theme in Tartarus. And in Strange Journey the dungeons are actually well thought out.

It doesn't matter what angle you approach it from, there's no comparison between Tartarus and the dungeons in mainline.

Persona 3:
+Better characters that actually have character development
+Better atmosphere that worked well with the main theme
+Battles were harder as you had to occasionally use tactics and learn how the AI behaved (almost like you're "fighting" alongside other people)

-Pacing
-Characters sucking your dick 24/7 excluding Junpei at first

Persona 4:
+/-You could control your party members
+/-Main villain (not mastermind) has a (terrible) motive that makes him seem more like any average joe

-Hardly any character development; Each character essentially underwent the same cookie cutter "development"
-Dick sucking turned up to 1000%
-Absolutely no sense of urgency/Shitty atmosphere

I don't understand this. None of the characters suck your dick until the very end of the game once you become jesus. Mitsuru doesn't give a fuck about you, Akihiko-sempai does his own thing pretty much the whole time, and Fuuka keeps to herself. The only 2 characters that do suck you off for a significant portion are Yukari and Aigis.

If you liked Strange Journey I think you'll like IV. Like Nocturne, the "dungeon crawling" is braindead compared to SJ, but the atmosphere and the way the story is told in IV are very similar to SJ. Gameplay is top notch.

The extra $10 exists exclusively because they know turbo weebs will pay it. You are not "lucky" for it.

I didn't realize that every single person you meet will tell you their life story within a few months of meeting them and rely on you to assist them with their soul searching and eventually come to life altering decisions. Maybe I should move to wherever it is that you live.

P3 had moments where they showed the character interacting without the protag, P4 had none of that.
>>
>>337867962
Well yeah but the point of the Tower is that he's a prominent figure that basically set up his own ruination, and he's supposed to bond with you by fixing that, not by getting super crunked

If the Persona 4 bandwagon had started after the PS2 release Strange Journey would have sold well, and yet, here we are.
>>
>>337867870
Stop being dense. Compare it to P3 where each character actually has arcs that develop throughout the entire game. Look at how Akihiko's character isn't centered on you, but his history with Shinji, his sister, and Ken. His life isn't revolving around you, he's actually his own person. Same thing with Junpei, Mitusuru, and Fuuka. It's like if for P4 they wrote every character as Aigis and chose to let them do a switch flip character development during their dungeon and then stay static characters for the rest of the game who get no individual screen time participating in their own lives unique from yours. It's clear as day
>>
>>337868197

Strange Journey didn't have the new artstyle.

>>337868106
Holy shit, a game of fiction doesn't work by the rules of reality? No fucking way. This is a game where you can summon stands to kick the shit out of demons. Why the fuck are you only taking issue with the "hey, you're only here for a year so they trust you a lot faster" aspect?

That's only true for Yosuke and Rise. The point of their S Links though is that they're reacting to their revelations like fucking retards.

Every character, or rather the game as a whole through your relations with every character. All of them go far beyond relying on you for emotional support and you know exactly what I'm talking about but you're just ignoring it and saying it doesn't count give me some more reasons so I can say they don't count as well. It doesn't matter if it's fiction or not, every character very quickly becoming close to you, and as I said before, using you to soul search and make life altering decisions is definitely sucking you off hard. I don't even think there's any point in arguing since you'll dismiss anything I or anyone else says as not valid without supplying any reason of substance.

I'm not dismissing it. You're not being specific. You're saying vague shit with your own interpertation of what "dick sucking" means.

I don't feel like you hanging out with a guy whose sister is dead, who you persistently pursue as a friend, and who ultimately shows his vulnerability to you and decides to move on is dick sucking. I think it's character development.

There's no need to be specific as it's the entirety of their relationship with you. Perhaps a better way to put it is that viewing all the relationships as a piece of the same whole amounts to the dick sucking. All of them rely on you within months of meeting you, which alone isn't necessarily that strange, but the fact that it's like 9+ people definitely creates the fellating atmosphere and appears as if everyone you meet is destined to become dependent on you and each s. link you pick up is the same thing which reinforces that idea. You'd have an easier time counting the number of significant characters that doesn't apply to.
>>
>>337870417
So basically you dislike S. Links because of breaks from reality?

>>337870593
I dislike that it's a forced friendship simulator except not even friendship since everybody loves you no matter what. It makes it feel cheap and poorly written. I've only played vanilla P4 and even then my memory could be wrong but something that P3 at least had was that your relationship could be halted due to something you do/don't do. I don't believe you could lose progress by dropping from say 5/10 to 4/10 but maybe I'm wrong about that too.

It's not forced and they "don't love you no matter what" you have to go through 10 ranks, which takes several months. And reverse links are rare in 4, sure, but they weren't ultra common in 3 either.

You had to be an actual fucking dumbass to trigger them, or just avoid them all together for a long period.

It was forced. The entire game painted human relationships as sunshine and rainbows that never have internal issues and are only about relying on each other (or rather everyone relies on you) to get through any hardship.

I'm pretty sure in P3 you would stall them based on answers you gave and by just hanging out with other girls. In P4 there's no consequence like that.

Except that isn't true. Almost every major supporting cast member likes MC shortly after meeting him.

Stopped reading. Whoever wrote that never played P4 or PQ.

She is the most broken P3/P4/PQ character who isn't an MC or Aegis.

Most of the other points are retarded or at least out of context. She didn't known about the TV world yet when Adachi got inspired to throw Namatame in. It wasn't her fault.

The only two exceptions I can think of is that little brother of the girl Yosuke liked (who starts out disliking you but surprise surprise he likes you in the end) and also Yumi if you reject her. Which is you rejecting her, not something having as a consequence to your actions.
