His job is to deflect questions the company doesn't want answered, re-answer the same questions over and over again, write press releases, show off the game to journalists and generally maintaining the public image of Atlus USA.

What his job is most definitely not: shitposting on twitter so he can be a pantomime villain the public can get angry at. If he hadn't so smugly and assuredly reiterated that game would release in 2015(as late as SEPTEMBER) and then did the same thing in 2016, the fanbase wouldn't be remotely as angry over the delays. Pissing people off is the EXACT opposite of what his job is supposed to be. his actions reflect on the company.

He couldn't have said anything else because Atlus USA knows nothing about ATLUS' intended release date and localization plans.

You're forgetting that Atlus USA is a second hand source of information and anything he says he's getting from Atlus JP, who are most certainly the real liars in this case.

Atlus USA does the actual localizing. They would have known there was no way Persona 5 was going to be released in 2015 way before the delay was annoucned.

But even if there was uncertainty there: Hardin should have only said the things he did, if he was absolutely, 100% certain the game was pretty much finished. Like "we're getting ready to go gold"-finished.

Competent PR:"we have nothing to announce at this point about the release date of Persona 5"

ATLUS: "is persona 5 coming out in 2015"? don't be stupid lel

same here fampais. I don't think this feeling is going to go away like it did with the Summer 2016 disappointment. why do the japs hate us? They would really rather make less money than share the game non-Japanese fans. I've been caring less and less about games in general and I wanted P5 to be my last ride on the game hype roller coaster but fuck, it really has been exhausting.

I guess this is the power of Japanese isolationism

Yeah if people could step back and look at it with a non-biased eye they would probably see that while Sarkeesian isn't some revolutionary thinker in women's rights and her points are pretty commonly thought they're still good points.

Though she also has some very questionable ones especially in relation to violent female characters being anti-feminist.

let's say I'm so delusional that I actually think that I can learn japanese to a decent enough level that I can play the japanese version of Persona 5 before it comes out in the west (meaning that I might be decent enough to play it before february, not when it comes out in September).

Where the hell do you even begin? What do japanese games like Persona use as subtitles? Kanji, Katakana? I don't know shit

So, to recap: This man willfully and willingly chose to not send Atlus USA any material to work with, knowing full well that if he didn't it the NA version would take atleast half a year to get done. No scripts, no alpha version of the game, no nothing. Even though we know for a fact that 90% of the stuff that needed translation has been done since basically late 2015, if not earlier.

Give me ONE (1) good reason why we don't hate this man?

What? I don't understand how anything will make up for it.
>>
>>144887328
I won't, unless they add dual audio, neither the delay or english only is alone a dealbreaker for me, but those two combined makes me pretty fucking pissed, not only do I have to wait 5 months more than the japanese but I can't even get the original voices, fuck that. If they would decide to add english voices again I would reconsider but as it looks now I will be skipping Persona 5.

>>144887387
>delayed to 2017
>no english audio
>CE is worse than the japanese one and doesn't even contain the DLC
All these things combined have made me lose all interest and hype I had for this game. And sure, people can say that the english dub is great, but I'm not looking forward to hearing Yuri Lowenthal and Troy Baker AGAIN.

>Its all your fault for making retarded assumptions without realizing that none of these things ever happened before with a Persona game
Last Persona game came out 8 years ago, times have changed, pretty much every JRPG nowadays have dual audio, there is no reason for Atlus to skip out on that, especially when they have spent alot of the budget on hiring top tier voice actors for the japanese version.

Must be some fuckery at the Japanese branch or something. Atlus USA can't be that inept. They got SMT IV out a month and a half later.
>>
Why did they reveal the release date now and not in E3?

Where they afraid the negative feedback from the release date would undermine their presentation?
>>
>>144890330
The most probably answer, to me, is that the voice actors are lobbying for the japanese voices to not be included. There's simply no other way. Atlus USA is writing an english script anyway so the VA can use it, why not use it with the japanese dub too? Makes no sense whatsoever
>>
>>144890856
I presume they have absolutely fucking nothing to show at E3, and wanted to get the disappointment out of the way rather than crowning fucking nothing with a punch to the gut.

See the 2015 to 2016 delay debacle where they put out the trailer, capping it with the delay gut punch, before the Persona dedicated event which then had absolutely nothing.

>They got SMT IV out a month and a half later.
To be fair, I'd think there's far less to translate/do for SMTIV. Less voicework and less translation.
>>
>>144891130
the english ones. I absolutely refuse to believe that licensing japanese VA costs that much, especially given the fact that games that are really niche (unlike Persona) also get some top tier japanese VA. The american ones and atlus must be friend and don't want their work to be considered shit or something like that
>>
>>144890856
Apparently a lot of studios drop bad news prior to E3 so it later gets drowned out and sometimes they then overshadow it with other news at the show.
>>
>>144891197
Less work, but also probably a lesser priority. This is their biggest game yet and it's taking just as long as it took when it was fully niche eight years ago. They've made no progress.

>>144891278
I believe the licensing of Japanese audio is expensive...unless the contract with the agencies say they can use the audio as much as they want. Which is what just about every company does these days.

I don't think the English VAs would care, or have any weight. They're replaceable non-union types who are hired precisely because of how cheap and disposable they are. English dubbing will also always be in demand no matter how low quality.
>>
>>144891278
>I absolutely refuse to believe that licensing japanese VA costs that much, especially given the fact that games that are really niche (unlike Persona) also get some top tier japanese VA.
That's assuming both cost the same.

>>
>>144894918
The same reason I want to watch a Russian film in Russian with English subtitles, not dubbed into English.
>>
>>144894918
Because with the Japanese voice actors they can put the fact that they're listening to cheesy shit anime dialogue out of their minds since they're "listening to it in its native form," which they can't do with English VAs.
>>

>>144895005
>The same reason I want to watch a Russian film in Russian with English subtitles, not dubbed into English.

Because there are lip syncing issues and the dialogue seems disconnected from the characters' actions? Video games don't have this problem.
>>
>>144895186
It's still a violation of the original recording. When you listen to dubbed anime, or play a Japanese game made mainly for the Japanese with Japanese actors dubbed into English, you're listening to a bastardization.

Even if film dubs worked perfectly I still wouldn't use them.
>>

If you want the original version that badly, learn Japanese and stop reading translations.

Do you realize that this is a tantrum worth of a 5 years old, right?
>>
>>144895608
To an extent, yes. It is a filtered experience. But that's better than nothing. It's unreasonable to expect everyone to learn every relevant language just to experience everything in its purest form. Do I have to learn Russian to read any of their classic literature?

The reality is that every other JRPG publisher is giving Japanese audio, often at no cost. Atlus is alone in their refusal, and they don't have any excuse.
>>
>>144895589
I'm being serious. If the original version is so important, why are you playing a game in a language not tied to the game?

If someone tells me they prefer the Japanese audio because I just think it sounds better, that's one thing. But people who tell me that the Japanese audio is better because it's the original all while playing a game whose text doesn't match it's audio are silly.
>>
>>144895792
>Do I have to learn Russian to read any of their classic literature?

If you don't want it to be a violation of the original text, then yes, you do.
>>
>>144895792
I mean, they have excuses. Whether or not you want to believe them is up to you but it's not like they're taking dual audio out just to fuck with their consumers.
>>
>>144895749
You are the only one throwing a tantrum. You are defending anti-consumer practices and cheering for fewer choices and lesser treatment.

>>144895904
Because that is the only option other than learning the language and being Japanese, and that isn't reasonable. It should also be noted that there are situations where I might be inclined to listen to the English dub. A highly Japanese game like Persona with mediocre at best English dubs is not one of those games.
>>
>>144895948
No, actually, they don't have excuses. Hardin, or anyone else at Atlus, has never actually given a reason for the lack of Japanese audio. He's always deflected the question because the real reason, whatever it is, is not a crowd pleaser.

If you are arguing against the inclusion of dual audio, or attempting to placate those who want it by shaming them into settling for a dub, then you are cheering for fewer options. Your exact reasoning and intentions are irrelevant.

It should be on disc if possible, and free DLC if not, but even paid DLC is preferable to not having the option at all.

>>144898832
No, I never said that. There are some Japanese games I'd prefer in English because it works better that way and may even be the creator's true vision (do Metal Gear for example).

And I'm absolutely fine with people playing Persona games in English even if given Japanese audio as well. I don't want to, for reasons many share, but I wouldn't try to take it away from anyone.
>>
English dubs are quite cringeworthy, specially when they try to pronounce japanese names. Also the girls sound like twice their age.
>>
>>144899263
This is true, but by the same token in Japanese games the girls sound half their age. Toki in SMT IV Final is 14 but she sounds 4. I'm sure her English VA will sound 40.
