So I just beat Persona 4 Golden and loved it and I want to go and play other smt games and I hear Persona 3 is also good but here is the problem there are two versions of the game. The fes version you cant control the other characters so here is my question does the ability to only control yourself make the game harder and a hindrence or is it not a big deal?
>>345253432
It can get annoying but it's not gamebreaking. Don't play P3P first.
go with fes
The game is harder than P4 because the bosses actually require you to make personas that benefit the situation. Not just a jack of all trades persona like 4. Proper use of tactics will get you the outcomes you want.
I played P4 first and thought I would hate P3's gameplay and ended up liking P3's gameplay more and the game overall.
>>345253432
It works fine, and also fits thematically with the game since instead of a group of bestie friends the P3 group is a lot more individualistic and often hate each other's guts, so fuck taking orders from you all the time.
it's fine if you can use your brain
If you played P4 first, not getting to control your characters would probably be really annoying. In that case, maybe it's best to play P3P.
>>345254648
>maybe it's best to play P3P
It's never best to play P3P first, learn to deal with the AI.
BABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABY
>>345253432
Play FES. Not even a fucking question. I agree with other anon who that says it makes more sense based on the characters relation to each other. The game needs to be somewhat challenging for the story as well.
>>345255096
yeeeeaaAAAAAAAHHHHH
>>345253432
FES first anon there is no other way, it has more content and a extra episode.
P3 is built like a visual novel, without the extra episode and the only "plus" is that you can play as a female version of the mc and gutting the personalities of the cast in the process.

>does the ability to only control yourself make the game harder
Not really. You'll get used to it really fast. You basically do have control over them, you can give them instructions like 'heal' or 'knock down enemies' or 'assign target', and they (usually) do what you would have done anyway
>inb4 marin karin
>>345253432
You can influence the actions of other party members (i.e. focus on healing, target enemy weakness, etc.). You can also force them to do a regular attack by abusing the auto battle. Just switch it on for their turn and switch it back off before yours. I abused the shit out of that to keep Mitsuru from being a dumbass.

You have all the information you need OP, if I was you I'd get out of here before you're spoiled
>>345256130
This. The only people who struggle are people who can't improvise. As well after a couple of months and some smart fusions MC becomes a one man wrecking crew so most standard battles will be over before the AI has a chance to fuck up.
>>345256786
I WON'T MISS
>>345253432
do FES if you only really plan on one playthrough so you can get the full experience
controlling your party is nice in P3P but the game isn't balanced for so it makes it a lot easier
>>345256786
Yukari is a bitch. Mitsuru is a stone cold hottie.
>>345257224
fucking Ikutsuki
>>345254131
This. Also it's more immersive since you're only controlling the protagonist so it would make sense that if he died it'd be Game Over.
>>345256786
MC, Aigis, Mitsuru, Akihiko is best party. Yukari is the best healer, but ultimately unnecessary.
FES is a straight up improvement in comparison to P4 golden which made very questionable decisions (fuck Marie).
The dungeons and shadows aren't nearly as interesting compared to p4 however; p4 is much more fleshed-out and unique in that regard. It is a bigger game though, bigger in the sense of story, setting, and importance. Gameplay is debatable, both games share and have different flaws (quests still suck, if not better than p4), and some of the bosses are just bullshit that require grinding on harder difficulties. It's a different game, but I don't consider it worse or better than persona 4.
I played only P2IS, P3 and P4 and P3 is my least favourite of them. It's too, idk, edgy on the endge of being cringy. P4 feels like something simple and I'm ok with that.
P3P is better, you'll like it even more if you enjoyed P4G that much.
>>345258696
Akihiko, Aigis, and Yukari is the best,
>buffs
>debuffs
>sick ass melee attacks
>best heals in the game
>>345253432
I think it's easy to get the party members to do what you want them to 90% of the time. Getting Yukari to do group heals instead of single heals seems to be a problem though.
>>345253740
100% agree. Some personas feel like they were almost made for specific bosses, like Narcissus for Intrepid Knight.
>>345253432
>>345253432
>started with 4
Of course.
You know what? Don't bother.
>>345260171
I would say 4 is a better place to start SMT than 3 because 3 is like the only game in the franchise where you don't have control of your party.
>>345253432
It makes the game better as the very core gameplay promotes one of the games central themes of individuality.
play FES
>>345260334
I don't agree, people build unrealistic expectations of the rest of Persona (and SMT as a whole) based on 4, since it's the only one they've played. And when they find out none of the other games are at all like that most just give up.
P4 is the FF7, or Resident Evil 4 of this series.
Why should I play P4G? Give me a good reason. I can get my hands on it for free, but I tried it once before and it was so fucking slow and boring.
>>345260624
Other than some dumbing down like only one physical type and removing some status effects it's much more in line with the rest of SMT than 3.
>>345260758
how far did you get the first time?
>>345259741
Her heals are unncessary though. Mitsuru can do fine single target heals, and has great damage output with her ice spells.
>>345261175
Not very far at all, I can't remember exactly where I got to. Definitely the intro still. That was the PS2 version by the way, I just got access to the Vita version now.
>>345260758
Could be it's just not for you.
>>345260758
You should try P3FES or P5 instead to see if the beginning and characters hook you more, then come back to P4 later.
>>345261514
The into is brutally long and it's going to be a bit before you get to any game.
>>345255948
>P3 is built like a visual novel
This isn't true and I hate that info pic that this idea originates from. They didn't add any descriptive text, the story and all the events are told as in FES but without the animations to tell you what the hell is going on.
>>345260928
I played P4G first and kept wondering why there were so damn many physical skills that basically did the same thing. Now when I'm playing P3 and they're divided into 3 different kinds it makes a lot more sense.
>>345261403
I don't want my healer blowing SP on damage spells when the rest of the party is fine at killing things.
>>345253740
lolwut? That's completely false, if anything it was even easier to use one persona for everything because skills weren't unique to some persona like in 4.
>>345253432
Yes the being able to control your party members is a huge deal, you can still beat the game without it but some characters (namely Mitsuru) will often waste their turns doing the most useless shit.
>>345261747
I think most of them were just an excuse to have more than one phys character.
>>345260624
>It changed things for the better so I hate it
>>345261813
Don't need much healing when she's blasting through everything with boosted Bufudynes.
>>345262316
>Chie gets Rainy Death at lvl 67
>she gets God's Hand at lvl 70
Fucking why Atlus?
>>345253432
If you aren't retarded and don't leave your entire party on "act freely" you won't have any issues.
If you could, would you have used him all game?
>>345262857
Aside from Mitsuru that is.
I think my best advice for you if you want to have a painless experience with the AI is to just not use her....90% of the "AI doing something useless" related issues you'll have are with her.
Reminder that mitsuru is still the best girl to come out of the persona series.
>>345262956
They got me good. I already knew he was going to die, but I thought it would be much later because he had so many skills to learn.
>>345255096
MOM'S NOT HERE GONNA FIGHT(ALL NIGHT)
>>345263097
How could one make so many mistakes in one sentence.
>>345263060
She get's really good once she leaves her "Marin Karin" and "tenterafoo" phase. Then she just mindcharges and mabuyfudynes everything. It's similar to chie and her "Black spot" phase.
>>345263398
Tentarafoo is fucking great against anything that doesn't resist it at least. Charm is just useless for the most part.
>>345263398
Did we play the same game? Even at 99 the bitch would often go as far as mind charging THEN casting Tentarafoo. It was next level stupid and I didn't want to deal with it. Yukari never gave me the same issues
>>345263371
Chie is pretty good, but she isn't goddess levels like mitsuru.
>>345263598
Guess I just got lucky or something, but she has been consistently good for me over multiple playthroughs.
>>345253432
I liked P3 FES, but I'm fucking terrible at balancing my dungeon grinding with taking tests or whatever. I guess I never was good at highschool.
>>345263598
It's just you. I've never had problems with her going for status spells. She always just mind charges and starts nuking.
Persona isn't SMT, it's Megami Ibunroku Persona; a spin-off of the Megami Tensei franchise and sister to Shin Megami Tensei. Atlus changed it to SMT Persona in the West along with other MegaTen titles to sell more copies.
Gay history lesson aside.
>Playing Persona 4 and 3
OP, I get it. You want a stylish, fun, feel good JRPG. I'm going to tell you that Persona 3/4 applies to the lowest kind of RPG fan. It's barebones at its core and it's slice of life segments take away even more from what could have been a decent game.
Compared to their older installments, P3 and P4 actually removed more content than added.
>Removed inflicting charm as a status effect, a MegaTen staple
>Changed dungeon layouts to a random dungeon generator that doesn't change the feel of the area, just that you may have to backtrack for no reason
>Only the MC can change Personas. In 1 and both installments of 2 everyone could
>In addition to the last complaint; the Arcanas that the main characters had correlated with others, both restricting how effective your personas are and what role each person takes in combat
And finally
>The "plot twist" is that some unknown force was manipulating shit right up until the last month. It wasn't shocking and both final bosses of 3 and 4 were bland
And just look at this thread. You see the handful of anons waifuposting? This is a slow day. Most of the time you can't even discuss the mechanics of Persona here. Because waifuposting is all there is to salvage from such a lackluster JRPG.
Do yourself a favor and look at this list, play something besides these god awful games.
>>345264602
Yeah secret club rpgs amirite?
>>345264602
ok thanks ill check out nocturne DDS SJ DS 2 and IV
>>345264947
Great retort. You get a writer for Persona Q to post that for you?
>>345265068
Good luck anon. You're in for a crazy ride.
>>345265185
M8 P3 and 4 are good games no one really cares if they are HARDCORE and REAL smt. They're fun. And half if not more of the games from your listed are either dated or just meh.
Neither of those games are SMT you fucking murrikan
I'm living overseas so I only have access to P3P on PPSSPP. Its my first Persona game, how fucked am I for starting with it?
>>345265456
I gave reasons and examples as to why I believe P3 and P4 are mediocre. Not once did I critcize it for the lack of difficulty, but for the effort they put into making it more steamlined by limiting what the player can do with Personas. I'm judging it for being a bad JRPG, not being a bad game.
>>345265961
Why not try p3FES on pcsx2?
>>345264602
I always find it puzzling when people shit on the gameplay in P3/P4 yet overlook what a huge improvement it was over P2 in that regard. You really have to go straight to the bottom of the JRPG barrel to find games with worse gameplay than P2. Even the elements borrowed from SMT, like fusion and demon negotiation, were somehow made completely unenjoyable in P2.
Also, charm still exists in P3. It's not even that uncommon of a status ailment, so I'm not sure how you overlooked it.
>>345266069
Computer is AIDS and can't run it. Though I may give it another go considering I haven't tried in like a year.
>>345266236
Visual Novel is an irredeemable mistake, no way P2 has worse gameplay
>>345266236
I almost beat P2EP. Went as far as some huge castle with portals. It was almost painful.
>>345266490
Did you even play p2? World exploration is nearly on the same level in both p2 and p3/4 but later also have that "visual novel" and social links stuff. P2 only had rumors and they were not great really. The only ggod thing about it was character sprites.
>>345266236
>Also, charm still exists in P3. It's not even that uncommon of a status ailment, so I'm not sure how you overlooked it
Appologies. I mean charm in P4 as a status on enemies was removed.
As for gameplay between both P2 and it's sequels, I don't see any reason for us to even argue about it. It's clear neither of us will agree on each other's opinion even if we bring up valid points on both sides.
Is Persona Q any good? What about the fighting games? I'm new to the series and have only played P3 and vanilla P4. My friend says to try Golden if I get the chance too.
>>345268214
I would say don't bother with golden unless you are into tsundere fetish fuel.
>>345268736
that's fair. what about all the other spin-offs?
>>345269279
Q has much better dungeons and puzzles than 3/4 and you can actually customize party members with wild card Personas. It's a good intro to Etrian Odyssey, only downside is characters aren't as detailed as 3/4.
>>345270448
Cool cool. I'll probably pick it up then. Are the Arena games good? I heard they're direct sequels plot-wise too.
>>345269279
Persona q is "okay" alot of the cast goes through alot of flanderization, but I won't say I didn't get a laugh out of the "destined partner" quiz.
Arena is again "ok" the gameplay itself is good but online is dead and the story is pretty shit.
>>345263097
Mitsuru was great, but I think Aigis was the best girl.
>>345271250
The only reason I never really liked aigis isn't even her design or her personality. It's the same problem liz has. Besides her s.link there are no other events with her involving the romance. Mitsuru may not have gotten an event during the summer like the rest of the girls (Atleast in fes) but she atleast had christmas. Aigis didn't even have that.
really makes ya think, even though the meme is irrelevant, namsayin? I mean I started the series with persona too but never made the mistake, you know, it ain't that confusin
>>345271501
I am so sad she didn't get a Christmas event. She did have a good amount things pointing to romance, but no events. She really doesn't realize till like the end of the game she is in love or what love is.
>>345271517
I don't think most of the people who get anal over people calling persona/other spinoffs SMT are 100% serious.
>>345272919Well she was still getting repaired during christmas but that doesn't mean there couldn't have been another event to make up for it
>>345272919
She has no content in P3P either but the way they changed her route is amazing.
>spaghetti's over forbidden love and runs off
>still get to do lewd things with her
>>345274278
They did let you go with her and mitsuru to the festival as a male in p3p. Which was a great improvement over the "Raise hand but nobody notices you" we had in fes.
>>345274278
God her spilling spaghetti was so cute in P3P.
>>345274504
I wish there was a version of P3P that wasn't so cut down.
Yes! My skill level has increased!
>>345274717
Junpei had the best level up dialogue.
>>345274880
Too bad I benched his ass fast.
>>345274975
He only really got useful later in the gameAfter his girl dies
>>345275128
I usually bring him back during the part where Aigis can't join your team.
>>345275287
I do more novelty party set ups so for a couple playthroughs he was there all game for me.
>>345275483
I would use different party members but I can't stop myself from minmaxing, it's in my bones man.
>>345275483
Was he useful for anything but Vorpal Blade spam?
Koromaru was my favorite party member
All of a sudden he starts getting mudo skills and just randomly killing everything but was still competent enough to use fire and physical more often than mudo
>>345275990
Well he pretty much never needed healing to counter his physical spam.
best
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Wi1Y8cmjyM
Did anyone actually use him in there team?
>>345277154
Please... I don't need these feels.
I used to deny the answer exists and made my own ending until I realizedI completely ignored the theme of the game myself
>>345277208
Nah he's a pretty shit member.
Posting best girl.
>>345277414
>Mfw he has a whole huge number of abiltites at higher level including God's hand
>It was done to trick you into thinking he would be around forever
>>345277414
Best guy maybe, but not best girl when there was so many good girls.
>>345277208
Me. First time I played P3 I leveled up everyone evenly and it took me105 hoursto complete
>>345277208
literally no one uses hama or mudo as their main attacks m8
>>345277603
I always wondered something in universe. They explain aigis was made humanoid, it's because it lets them have emotions to use a persona, but why give herrobo tits?
>>345276067
I used him on my first playthrough, but never really went back to him. I did like him, unlike Ken who I purposely avoid using, but it's hard to pick him over Yukari, Aigis, Mitsuru, Akihiko, or to a lesser extent Junpei.
>>345277837
You don't just build a qt robogirl and not make her curvy.
>>345278027
But... she was made by a group of grown men why would they even bother toI think I answered my own question
>>345277540
Yeah, I poured a lot of resources and time into him to grind up the first play through. Only made it more painful when revolver jesus paid a visit.
>>345277837
Too make her feel more human since picking a gender for her would help in manifest a Persona since having and gender to identify yourself as makes you part of who you are.
>>345253432
P3 was balanced around only controlling yourself, so the PSP version fucks up this balance royally. Certain mechanics, like knocking down enemies and All-Out Attacks, work a bit differently in P3 than in P4, so don't think it's a flat-out removal of features, since the game does cut you some slack to compensate.
>>345278309
It's been a while since the last time I played it, but didn't P3P use P4's knockdown mechancs, which made you unable to do silly shit like stunlock the Reaper infinitely?
>>345278172You can save him as FeMC.not canon of course
>>345278457
You can still stun it and make it skip a turn.
>>345278560
>not canon of course
I wish FemMC was canon becuase her S-link is about 10 times cuter with Aigis becuase Aigis spills her spaghetti all over the place so hard in the version with becuase of forbidden love and such.
>>345278982
Forbidden on two ends...
>>345268214
P4G is a better P4, simple as that. There are people who don't like a particular character that Golden introduces, but you can easily ignore her and the story doesn't really change if you do. Not ignoring her adds more content after the original game is supposed to end, at least 10-so more hours worth.
Persona Q is different, but great. The dungeons are its strongest asset, and the aforementioned P4G character shows up there too so maybe play Golden beforehand if you want to.
>>345278982
I don't care if they just treat her as some alternate universe thing but leaving her out of a fanservice game like PQ is horrible.
>>345279170
If you skip that particular character you also skip a good chunk of the new content and some of the best music in the game.
>>345279187
>mc and femc meet
So do they immediately just jump into each others pants?
>>345279170
My only real gripe with Persona Q was how unbalanced the characters were. I mean for some reason they decided to make some characters and some were useless.
Like take how broken Aigis was for example having pretty much everything you could ever want in a team member and then we have Mitsuru who is pretty much a joke with a joke final move.
>>345279364
The toaster gets confused because she doesn't know which one to bone.
>>345279636
Pretty much this would happen
>>345279364
I imagine a canon FeMC would be distraught over nobody being able to remember who she was if she came in from an alternate universe. It would make a great premise for another spin-off.
>>345279636
I assume it would just end with her having to go with both. Beats my fanfic
>>345279879
At the same time?
>>345279978
Whichever they prefer.And considering most people play the femc as a slut she would most likely go yes
>>345279593
They should have gone with what P4G did and let you swap their primary skills with alternate ones.
>>345279593
Chie with a boosted Crit rate is a nightmare. Charged up Aeon Rain crits are incredible.
>>345280079
My FeMC was a pure maiden who only banged two chicks.Would have been more if Atlus wasn't full of prudes.
>>345280276
Ya I like Chie and I would chain her into Aigis since Aigis is the 2nd slowest character in the game. I just like have no idea what they were think giving Aigis the passive abilities and just general abilities they gave her. Plus her stats were all pumped into str and end giving her the highest in both of those in the game when all of the other stats were sort of not useful to her.
I just don't understand there train of thought handing out moves and stats in this way.
>>345280831
Probably to make the sub-persona gimmick more appealing.
>>345280798
I don't really understand this. If they were going to let you go full yuri with 2 girls they might as well just let you do it with all of the girls.
>>345281427
Maybe because those other girls aren't lesbians, you dumb slut
>>345281427
I get not letting you bang the original cast because they aren't into forbidden love but then they add new girls exclusively for femc and you get nothing with them.
>>345281427
Most girls are straight. It wouldn't make sense. I don't think Mass Effect even does this.
>>345281801
They made one of the guys from the first game gay in the third one because they were too lazy to make a new character.
>>345281723
I could see Mitsuru and Yukari maybe being Bi.
>>345282142Kaiden was so terrible I wasn't surprised he was retconned into that.
>>345282194
But they aren't, so go masturbate and cry in a corner.
>>345282297He might have been boring but I regret saving that one bitch over him.
>>345282363
>he doesn't remember the scene where Mitsuru gets flustered when Yukari asks her to take a bath with her
>>345282363
Mitsuru and Yukari seem pretty gay sometimes anon.
>>345282509
>>345282639
Can you romance them as the girl?
No?
Then they aren't gay.
Deal with it, dykes.
When is the final P3M BD being released?I want to feel bad when MC dies in Aigis' lap
>>345282951
They do it in the base game too big guy.
>>345283020
My point still stands.
>>345263371
It's ironic, Chie and Kanji are probably my favorite party members of the series, but P4's plot would hardly change if they were removed.
Hope P5 brings back the character arcs throughout the main story.
>>345253432
>The fes version you cant control the other characters
Honestly this isn't much of a problem in any version of p3 or p4.
The games ai controlled party members USUALLY perform fine unless you need them to do extremely specific things at specific times, in which case sounds like you're already fucked.
Not to say they wont do dumb things once in a while, there's a reason MARIN FUCKING KARIN is a thing.
Here's the thing though, in P3 at least, many boss type enemies ARE susceptible to certain status ailments.
Poison is surprisingly effective when it's suddenly your largest source of damage against their truckload of hp.
>>345283643
>>345283643
I liked the girls in P3 a lot more maybe becuase they felt a lot more fleshed out, but Chie was nice. Kanji was over all the best character in P4 for me though.
Play Devil Summoner
>>345284175
Ai was my favorite P4 girl because of how fleshed out she was. I would put her above most of the P3 girls too.
>>345284175
I thought P4's characters felt more rounded upon introduction, but P3 had a stronger sense of what to do with its cast over the course of the rest of the story.
>>345284669
P4 character development isn't reflected in the main game because it's all contained in their social links which you can do any time.
>>345284552
Ya Ai was fleshed out pretty well considering she only really had her S-link going for her. In P3 Aigis and Yukari got a lot of screen time in the story, so they got fleshed out a lot through P3 then most.
Maybe they will do more things like that in P5 again
>>345284669
P4s problem was that characters and the stuff they went through and stuff you did with them didn't matter or didn't see anything outside of S-links sadly.
.
>>345282194
>No option to try and go for a threesome as a "last thrill" the night before the fight with nyx
Who did you spend your last possible day on earth with?
>>345284843
That's something I've hoped Persona 5 could improve on.
I don't expect major branching shifts in the main story, but little acknowledgements towards where the different characters are at in regards to social links and relationships would be nice.
>>345269279
Don't listen to that anon. Get Golden. Marie is not enough reason to just drop the game entirely.
>>345285316
It would only work if they lock them behind game events like in P3.
>>345285131
>the stuff they went through and stuff you did with them didn't matter or didn't see anything outside of S-links sadly.
I thought Dojima and Nanako's tied into their development in the main story quite nicely if you didn't choose to ignore them at night.
It wouldn't have hurt to have changed the main party's dialogue up a bit for whether or not their social links were completed or not though.
>>345285773
As much as some people didn't like this it made the characters feel fleshed out and let shove important events and things that happened through out the game into their S-links and this was a good thing.
>>345285316
>acknowledgements towards where the different characters are at in regards to social links
I'd settle for Chie acknowledging that she's dating protagonist-kun rather than acting all surprised when he says that he'd be interested in someone like her.
>>345285904
>I thought Dojima and Nanako's tied into their development in the main story quite nicely if you didn't choose to ignore them at night.
Does it actually change the game if you ignored them?
>>345286358
Nope.
>>345286280
Them all acknowledging they know you are going out on valentines day if you were with just her was a nice start.
>>345286358
Nah, I just think it adds some solid context for the family's relationship and grants a sense of reconciliation that actually brings something to the weight of the final arc.
>shoots you in battle
>don't die immediately
literally why
>>345287985
Well, you do fight him when you are stronger, and wearing armor that would probably actually block armor. Shinji and ken had no reason to wear their armor since they weren't going to fight the full moon shadow.

Aigis looks cute in that. I wonder if there is any Aigis bunnygirl out there somewhere.

FES is the superior version, just emulate P3P because it's not worth it
>>345290250
>>345291156
Absolute perfection
>>345289212
How are the movies past the first one anyway? The pacing was shit, the animation iffy, but I did like how they actually fucking had the characters fighting alongside their Persona instead of having it play out like demonic Pokemon battles like the P4 anime.
>>345291867
2 and 3 were worse desu they rush through some parts like Ikutsuki betraying you with no sense of pacing compared to the buildup in the first movie.
Only good for some top notch Yukari fanservice like the opening scene of movie 2.
>>345291754
I'M GOING TO EXECUTE YOU!
>>345291867
The first one was the best, the 2nd and 3rd movies are rather boring, even more poorly paced and try to force Aigis in to every scene, kinda like they did with Marie for the P4GA.
>>345292279
>She asks if you want another one if you talk to her after getting caught
>No option to say yes
Why is the music in Persona 3 so shit, but so enjoyable and catchy?
>>345292186
>>345292346
That's actually pretty disappointing. Is MC at least as big of an autistic cunt as he is in the first one?
>>345292679
What do you mean? How can it be shit AND good?
>>345293163
Moreso. His manga adaptation was probably the most accurate to his character.
>>345256973
>I WON'T MISS
>Has the least accurate weapon type in the game
>>345275990
He learns Marakukuja which is super useful
>>345293163
At least movie 3 ended with the Ryouji arc nearly done so they can devote the entire last movie to the Nyx fight, might turn out decent if they put an effort in.
>>345293273
>>345293590
>yfw the last movie just has a huge tone shift and it is just the mc romancing all of the girls
>The nyx fight lasts ten minutes of the runtime
>>345292346
I know they wanted to pick a main girl for the movie and Aigis makes the most sense, but I would have liked them to go a little more into some S-links of the other girls maybe.
I love Aigis and am happy she got a lot of screen time, but I would have liked them to you know at least not forget about the other girls.
>>345293853
Nah it pushes Aigis hard in the last movie still and it ends with Lizz leaving the velvet room too. The Nyx fight pretty well done at least.
>>345281723
Maybe all the women don't like guys in the MC route. It's the same thing.
>>345282194
this guy gets it
>>345293994
I think we got a glimpse of the direction they wanted to take the S links, with Fuuka's arc in the first movie, unfortunately, a change of plans must've happened when they switched directors for the 2nd movie.
>>345294215
That makes no sense you bimbo
What to play first? P3 or P4?
>>345294215
>liking women who aren't attracted to men
I will never understand /u/
>>345294364
its makes perfect sense.
>>345294412
P3FES first. Then P3P. Then P4G.
>>345294483
/u/ doesn't think, they just want to see girls being mindless and horny.
>>345293994
I still want to know why the fuck they didn't give the other characters Persona evolutions
Fuck they even had the scene where Akihiko breaks down at the funeral but just decided to not give him the powerup at the end of it
>Localize game
>Keep the questions about some nippon history and culture in the game
How the fuck are you supposed to know any of those unless you cheat and look up in the internet?
>>345294625
They tell you before, you need to pay attention in class you idiot.
>>345294580
The persona evolutions happen near the end of the last movie, during the heat of battle against Nyx.
>>345294625
You pay attention in class.
>>345294751
That's not how Personas work you stupid shit movie
>>345294751
That's fucking stupid I hope the director dies horribly
Rise is a slut by the way
>>345296228
Fuuka is better by the simple fact that she can scan.

>>345263371
>liking meme "lol meat xD" girl
>>345268214
It's an Etrian Odyssey game with Persona slapped on it with a tumblr fanfiction-tier story and writing. It's not terrible but easily the worst spin-off. Get it if you want but I'd wait until it's like $20 on the eShop.
>>345253432
>play persona 3/4 and love it
>hear it's not a real SMT game and I should go play something like Nocturne or Strange Journey instead
>go play Nocturne
>it's basically exactly the same as P4 except instead of personas you have demons and the demons are your party members instead of being your ability pool
>demon negotiation is cool, really like the personality it introduces to the game but still not seeing any meaningful differences in how the combat plays other than random encounters
>random encounters
>random encounters
>even get random encounters in "town" areas
If you don't think being able to choose when to enter combat or not by having the visible shadows in Persona was a good thing you actually have no taste and have no place telling anybody what games they should and shouldn't play because you have no idea what makes for good game design.

This stupid bitch almost killed everyone in the world, she's the last person I'd trust my life to.
play fes. don't play the psp cucked version until you have at least played FES and even then only play the psp version of you want to see the new dialogue when you play as the girl.

I kinda wish Strength and Hermit had 15 ranks. Yuko and Toriumi were perfect, and I wish there had been more.
>>345280079
I played her as a bubbly, friendly girl with high charm/courage and good academics who dated Shinji and stayed loyal to him even when others asked her out. Man, that was a lot of fun.
>>345277208
I didn't even level him up. He's a little shit who killed best boy.
test
Is P4G worth buying a Vita?
