it's literally called "Hanako vs Yosuke"
>>145754169
>Hanako vs Yosuke
Lol
>>145754340
A movie, Hanako vs. Yosuke. It probably will be as bad as any japanese horror movie
http://eiga.com/movie/84825/video/
>>145752453
Cause they don't bother dubbing it and it has no physical release.
>>145753181
I'm not surprised. Soejima loves Chie. He got excited when he saw a Chie cosplayer.
>>145754340
If you like either of those movies you're gonna watch Sadako vs. Kayako

No such thing.

Now that it seems that negotiating with demons is a thing, does anyone have any tips for how it doesn't get immediately tedious? I played SMTIV recently and I just got stuck in these endless loops with random demons where I'd pay them money and give them items five or six times and then they'd just run away.

Why is Persona 5 not on PC?
If Atlus released this, together with Persona 3 and Persona 4 Golden, on PC, their revenue would increase a million-fold.
Do Atlus hate money or what? They could have profited more by using Steam's potential and attract more people who are new to Persona series.

I wasn't giving into all their demands. Eventually they started asking me to kill my demons and I wasn't having any of that, and some of the items they asked for were resurrection or large healing items that I wasn't willing to part with.
>No Katsuya
Fuck you Atlus
>>145762383
Demons being untrustworthy is like their #1 personality trait across all cultures, you shouldn't get upset and call it a tedious feature.
Just Recarm the demons they "kill", its not like they disappear from your inventory.
In P5 you seem more in control anyway with the option to All Out Attack if it gets too much.

What would be the most stupid plot twist Persona 5 could have?
>>145777878
It was all a dream
>>145777746
It's been like that since at least Persona 3.I haven't played the first 2.
>>145777596
I think this is like most Persona games being E-10 while P5 getting a T rating
>>145763465
>>In P5 you seem more in control anyway with the option to All Out Attack if it gets too much.
In P1 I sent Nanjo to negotiate when it was getting too much.
>>145777878
Arsene is the bad guy
>>145777878
Everything was a game Yosuke was playing while waiting for Yu to arrive before the events of Arena
>>145777878
The MC you played as is the final boss, you get a new form for the final battle and defeating the old self is the last step in his rehabilitation.
>>145777962
In EP I set Paofu to negotiate if it was getting too much.
>>145761023
>>145761968
>>145762383
It's not a negotiation, you are trying to remind the personas that they aren't actually shadows, and it doesn't really make must sense to try and barter with a persona to try and remind it who it is.
>>145777673
>Oh my... Tee-hee...it's very manly, that much is certain.
What did she mean by this?
>>145778320
But personas are shadows. You're basically lying to them.
>>145777878
Phantom is Sho.
It's gonna happen.
>>145777878
Turns out it's man
>>145777878
You're playing flashbacks for the entire first half of the game.
Second half is bullshit god-related stuff after you or your friends get you out of jail

>We're not shadows-ho!
>We are beings who live in the sea of the human heart-ho!
Never imagined he'd use おいら
>>145778917
So do you think they'll explain why shadows no longer look like blobs and hulk-manias?
>>145779092
Better graphical capabilities, which increases the fucking magic.
>>145778631
Pretty sure that's been the twist of every persona game since P1.
>>145777878
It all takes place in the mind of an autistic child.
>>145779092
They didn't wanna waste time modeling those awful things and focused on making as many personas as possible
>>145779275
You do realize they already had the demons in 3D as far back as Raidou and Nocturne right?
>>145779292
Yes, but under different connotations.
>>145779326
You mean, it's all in the imagination of /pg/? We created it?
>>145777878
The Phantom Thieves were the bad guys all along
>>145778320
Doesn't P2:EPP's playable extra scenario says that demons are the same as Shadows?
>>145777843
Their shitty VA's have no range.
>>145779449
Yeah, but I don't think they wanted to use them in regular battles for some reason. There was some technical reason for it, I think.
>>145779549
Regular EP says the demons are not real. Demon Painter is searching for true demons. EPP states the reason they are changing into blobs is because of the human heart changing which was due to Philemon's weakness.
>>145779092
I want to believe.
It says that you're reminding shadows about their true form, and in exchange, they lend you their power.
And Palace has a master.
>>145777878
You were working for Nyarlathotep all aloooooooong!
>>145777225
Now I'm curious why. Is it because of blood or more explicit sexual themes? Mind that C doesn't mean anything REALLY explicit.
>>145779554
Same voice anyway.
>>145779773
What does Demon Painter hope will happen when he finds a real demon? Get torn apart?

>>145780276
>minor character raises the game's rating
Always amusing. Neptunia MK2 almost got AO because of a blatant pedo character
>>145779845
>And Palace has a master.
Final boss, obviously. But this good.
It means there won't be something something stupid like "Phantom is the final boss", I think this might rule out rest of the party and even Arsene as the mastermind.
And since it has a master, Personas being there possibly means that the master is catching them somehow and keeping them against their will. They're slaves and you are freeing them. Noice.

also all of that isn't too casualizing if the game is balanced around it

Also, no one plays these games for the dungeon crawling anyway desu.
>>145783762
>Saving in Dungeons
Nothing wrong with that
>Assist button auto targets weaknesses of enemies
SMT IV had that
>Switching party members within dungeons
As opposed to what? Going back to the main HUB, change members and go back to the dungeon?
>Safety mode available from the start
Nothing wrong with that, as anyone with some self-respect will choose Normal
>Baton Pass allows you to switch to anyone to just continue exploiting weaknesses, they also get stat boost
I'm sure it will be balanced around that
>You can do some pull ups during your free time to increase your maximum health
I'm sure you will have to spend a lot of days doing that to get a significant amout of HP.
>>145777878
It being Sho by some 2% chance would be the worst thing to ever happen, no doubt.
Other obvious options like 'Igor is the big bad', 'Arsene is the big bad', or just another Ookami would really kill me.
>>145781412
I have Makoto, Yusuke, and Ryuji. The others are too hard to extract in a clean manner.

It's still a MT game. What the hell are you expecting? The final boss to just be some douche in a suit?
>People aren't going to have their team be Yusuke Makoto and Morgana
Fucking psychopaths.
>>145784836
Even in Golden, you can't just autobattle through everything.
>>145784864
The best villain in the series was an abomination pretending to be a douche in a suit tho
>>145784960
>Not living in a world of streght with Ryuji, Makoto as heavy hitters with Anne being the heal slut
Step it up senpai
>>145785075
Still some random ass magic thing, just one pretending to be a jackass in a suit. The form will vary, but the random ass god-ness will not.
>>145784960
No boys allowed, not ever.
The best part about Kanji joining the IT was that you could finally just dungeon crawl with only Chie and Yukiko
>>145785145
I think morgana is the going to be the healslut
He has dia and patra, while Anne has dia and dormina
>>145785585
Is Morgana confirmed dude?
That sucks, I wanted a female mascot.A cat is fine too.
Finally caught up with all the P5 shit.
Goro will be the obvious fujo fan favorite especially if he betrays the team, right?
>>145785893
Him and Yusuke
>>145784960
This is my future team.
>>145784864
It's not that I don't expect that at all. It's more like I doubt the execution of it being another god. But maybe I'm just doubting Atlus' writing skills after the past few games.
>>145784792
Let's say Sho turns out to be the P5 MC.
What does that contribute to the story? 'Wow, some poorly written antagonist in a fighter game actually managed to become a decent person and is me!' Amazing. But why portray him as a blank slate for the entirety of the game instead of just recruiting him as a party member? How does this enhance the narrative in any way but circlejerk back to P4 again. Sho isn't even popular enough to justify it. It's just plain ridiculous.

Maybe she was wearing a Mitsuru cosplay.

Can't wait for the abuse pics of a bruised Phantom having his chin being hold and his hair swiped away by Goro's lether gloves while looking at him right in the eyes a mere centimeters away from a kiss.

Surprisingly Yusuke isn't very popular, at least for now.
I'm with the first guy, I have a feeling fujos will pick Goro over him, Yusuke might be more popular with otomefags.
>>145786312
Yusuke is already fujobait by default for looking like Jun.
>>145786438
The bait is stale, fujos aren't taking it
>>145786438
Dont fujo's prefer characters that arent gay, but instead get insinuated to be flamboyantly fabulous over and over again, like Yosuke was?

you should stop self Inserting
I have a leaked screenshot of Morgana's All out Attack Finish shot

Yeah, they like bromance, subtext and reading into things. That's why actual yaoi series aren't that big but shonens tend to have a big fujo following.

It would be nyaa or something

Given the history of shipping protag with detectives that this fandom has, Phantom/Goro will undoubtedly be on the level of popularity to MC/Adachi or MC/Yosuke. So very popular.
Yusuke is still a good second contender just by nature of his character design.

Untrue. Ignoring Phantom, Yusuke's the most popular male right now. Ryuji was dead last.
There's hardly fanart of anything but MC or Futaba and the occasional Makoto right now, but pairing-wise I've only seen MC/Yusuke get more than one art.

Good. Ryouji is for Anzu only

What are the chances of Morgana saying PURRsona in the English version?
50%?

About as likely as them making Yosuke say epic fail, or changing Aegis to Aigis, or something
