Still trying to get through the end of P1. It's become a bit of a slog.
>>146417880

It was a fun ride
>>146417742
Katana's aren't really a gendered weapon. Although for added irony you might as well making it the washing pole.
>>146417742
Male or not, I can't really imagine Yu with any other weapon than a katana.
FeMC already called dibs on naginatas and doubling her like that would feel off.A paint brush would be nice, even though it wouldn't make sense at all. I just like unconentional weapons.
>>146418698
A paintbrush is more of a Futaba weapon.
>>146419047
Too bad she's just a navigator
>>146419047
No, it's more of a Yusuke weapon. Why the fuck would Futaba have a paintbrush?
>>146419174
For now. Wait until P5 Arena.

>>146420095
>Are people actually hyped for that?
I've been hyped for it since I learned it was from Tadashi satomi and the game sold out in less than 24 hours, also nips seem to be liking it a lot.
>>146421384
Well, I meant more are people actually hyped because the game actually sounds/looks cool or if they're hyped because Tadashi.
New dengeki scans says that "auto recover" button is actually to recover you to Full HP. Doesn't precise if it has limited uses or not, but it obviously does or it'll make the game too easy.
This+the ability to switch party members anytime must mean the game must be pretty hard if you're not playing on safety or easy.
>>146421575
No idea.
Though the name and artstyle was what caught my attention in the first place.
>>146421627
I mean, I don't know what the actual text reads, but are you sure it's not talking about a system like easy mode from P3/4 where you can revive during game over?
>>146421627
It probably just means "cast dia/media from the character with the most SP repeatedly until all HP is 100%"
Or it's a navigator ability and Futaba has a SP bar or set number of charges.
Or it's a microtransaction ability.
>>146421627
>This+the ability to switch party members anytime must mean the game must be pretty hard if you're not playing on safety or easy.
Or that the game is casual as fuck like Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden. Their latest Persona games.
I think the answer is pretty obvious.
>>146421987
>oh no this dating simulator is casual
I'm out of toilet paper.

Damn it, anon. Don't you know that this anime male power fantasy has to be a hardcore RPG like mainline?
>>146421987
Well, considering they're adding in more elements, that obvious answer isn't dumbing shit down.
>>146421384
Is that a fucking GUMP?
>>146421834
>It probably just means "cast dia/media from the character with the most SP repeatedly until all HP is 100%"
It's mentioned alongside the dash function and says it's to make your dungeon experience smoother and faster like real thieves so I think you're right.
>>146422665
>like real thieves
real thieves can't heal themselves like that and that fast

Who will be the first Persona character that isn't already dead to die, and by what?
I think Naoto will be shot fatally while apprehending a criminal. Or perhaps Chie by heart disease.
>>146434080
Koromaru, because of old age
>>146434080
Naoto is already dead, that's why there's a new detective prince.
>>146434150
>who isn't already dead
I thought we already agreed that he's dead by the time Persona 5 takes place.
>>146433415
It's even better than the FFXV demo.
>>146434213
He's alive until confirmed dead
But since we all know he's getting pretty old its easy to asume he's dead and buried
But maybe atlus will come up with some magic bullshit making Koromaru aging slowly or being inmortal or whatever.
>>146434080
Naoto can't die. She has already died plenty of times but keeps on coming back somehow.
>>146434213
Are you stupid?
>>146434475
Naoto is the killedest woman alive.
>>146434384

This sure is a hard decision.
>>146436987

Though there may be a outside party romance, like an old flame for Ryuuji or something. The difference has to be that the romance has to be outside the player's sphere of influence.
>>146437482

No, just some autist.

After the popularity of Yu, I dont hold any hope for anything protagonist related.
At least the girls seem cool, and Ryuji might be funny.
I have a copy of persona 5 in my hands right now but I cant take a picture because it would put my job in jeopardy
Rise is the better support.
>>146441463

Hey is this thread alive ? I was hoping you guys could help me with an Image I made forever ago.
Its a Doraemon edit where Yu is holding a Revolver to his head while Makoto tells gim to pull the trigger. heres the base image.
>>146441193
There's a difference between that and party members having little to no personal dynamics with eachother (pre-existing ones like Yukiko/Chie not withstandng) in game. Or the entire cast literally reverting Personas and losing development after Narukami leaves in Arena. The P4 cast hinged way too much on the protagonist to keep them afloat.
>>146441216
Yeah, I do think P5's cast feels fresh and has alot of potential, but as always, Atlus will ruin atleast some of it. I'm not expecting too much or too little either way.
>>146441463
Hey I got it too
>>146441640
>Or the entire cast literally reverting Personas and losing development after Narukami leaves in Arena.
This isn't a thing. It's an aesthetic choice by Atlus with no actual meaning to it.
That, and people seem to forget these games have always had perfect silent protagonists that everyone loves (or learns to love, or is just evil)
>>146441463
I hate when that happens, I'm also in the exact same predicament
>>146441859
They still basically go through their character arcs all over again in their Arena routes. I know about the stylistic choice holding no baring on the Persona themselves though.
>>146441539
>forever ago
How is that possible when Makoto was only revealed in May.
>>146441463
I'll trade you for this rare MN9.
>>146441859
>perfect silent protagonists that everyone loves
While they basically serve the same role, the different between Peircy and Yu, is astounding.
And on top of that we have to deal with the spin offs that try to make him more than just a blank stand in for the player.
Anime protags are usually shitty in that way, but Narukami is on an entirely different level of awful that the others aren't.Aigis is still the only good persona protag.
>>146442012
>They still basically go through their character arcs all over again in their Arena routes.
I don't really see that as a problem from a character stance. Persona 4 made it pretty clear no one in the game was cured or something. Every last one of them was still holding on to some of the regrets/troubles they had in the game, which feels pretty true to life to me. And the shadows/fakes in Arena tested them.
Of course, from a story-telling perspective this is a problem, but that's what happens when you make a game starring nothing but characters who already went through several entire arcs already.
>>146442205
Death to Aigisfags
>>146442205
>While they basically serve the same role, the different between Peircy and Yu, is astounding.
Yeah, Yu never met his shadow and had his shadow tell him that he was a real cool guy who totally had it all together.
>>146442205
>Aigis is still the only good Persona protag
The Answer did well for her but only because she was already an established character to begin with. In the Journey, she was a parrot. In The Answer, she became a true character. In Arena, she became her own.
>>146442205
>Aigis
>protag
>>146442036
the P3 protag ?
>>146442402
>In Arena, she became her own.
In Arena, she transformed from a robot into a troll.
>>146442353
1 short scene with Shadow Peircy is pretty different from and entire cast hanging on his every word and movement.

What are you talking about? Is there a different Makoto in Persona?
>>146442685
>implying I didn't
I enjoyed getting vorpal blade to death by Mitsuru
Aigis is still not a protag
>>146442520
The real difference is Pierced Boy is hardly even a character. There's comparatively so much less story/dialogue in P1 compared to the rest of the series, with Pierced Boy only getting the occasional choice (mostly leading up to said meeting with his shadow).
I generally find the topic to be incredibly silly. Persona has always used silent protagonists. The problem with this is it's hard to have any real meaningful relationships this way. If people like the character it feels hollow because the player didn't do anything, but if they fight with the protagonist, characters come off as ungrateful assholes because again the player did nothing.
>>146442890
Makoto/MC is now officially the new "MC/Naoto/Kou/etc."
>>146442754
>people still call the P3 protag MC or Minato instead of his official given name from the creators.
the fuck ?
>>146443028
But Makoto looks nothing like MC.
>>146443071
But his official name actually given to him by Atlus is "P3 Hero"
>>146443126
I mean deliberately mixing them up as an overused joke. In this case based on name rather than appearance.
>>146443071
The name Minato Arisato rolls off the tongue better.
But seriously though, they should give the protagonists a default name in-game all the time like Tatsuya so they stop this confusion.
best Makoto
>>146443219
It's not even confusion. People are just deliberately doing it wrong.
Well, then again I'm sure there are some idiots out there who take anime/movie/manga adaptations as canon.
>>146443071
Creators of what, fanfiction? Last time I checked Atlus never gave him a name.
>>146443071
No game has ever named him, He's still MC since he isn't refereed to with any name in any of the canon games.
>>146442685
I did. I completely understand not playing it but I'm masochistic and it actually went really smoothly. I will never understand why Atlus thought anyone would play it given how easy it was to die though, or the minuscule amount of story proportionate to grinding.
>>146443071
Makoto yuki is so lame and generic, at least "Yu Narukami" has a meaning that relates more with Protag even if it's sillyI like Souji Seta a bit more.

Following this speech the rest of the demo was entirely in Japanese, a sure sign that localization is in the works and the cast in place but with work still quite a way from completion. Atlus confirmed with us after the fact that the English introduction portion of the demo was something they put together on very short notice just for E3, but despite that it left a strong impression that the English dub of the game will be as fantastic as Persona 4's.

Souji Seta is a shitty name that has no meaning, looks ugly written in our humanspeak and moonspeak, and Souji is a lame character in general. The only good thing you can say about Souji is that he isn't P4GA Yu.Kousuke Tsukimori master race.

I feel the manga actually gave Souji some flaws and weaknesses unlike Yu who was Mr. Perfect.

Source on that? Because we already know that the lead translator knows so little about the game, she had no idea if the VR is still a thing.

Are we talking about anime Yu or spin-off Yu now? Because anime Yu sure as hell had flaws and weaknesses that actually had a bigger impact on the story than Souji's just moving around a lot.

Why do people keep calling Namba's wife the lead translator?

>The name Minato Arisato rolls off the tongue better.
I disagree, Makoto Yuki is easier to say, and sounds better imo
