Whoops, I meant right here!
Daily reminder that Countess Cagliostro aka Josephine Balsamo will be P5 final boss in true ending. In case you don't know her, she's the Mother of Thieves and also the lover & antagonist of Arsene Lupin.

It will be Izanami & Nyx all over again unless Nyarlathotep makes an appearance

Is the story of Persona 2 any good? The gameplay looks kinda awful, to be honest and there are no social interactions/free time as far as I know. But great characters and a nice story would be able to make it worth it.
>>148142812
It's okay
>>148142812
Story and characters are literally the only reasons people bother with it
>>148142812
Better than P4 for sure.
>>148142812
The stories and casts in P1/2 are miles better than P3/4. Or at least better than P4 anyway.
They're a slog, but they're worth it.
>>148142812
It's literally the best story and cast, except for the stories and casts which are better.

Damn, I didn't expect such an uniform opinion. That's great, looks like I have something fine to play again. I figure the way to go is through the PSP versions in the PSN?
>>148143593
How is that uniform? But the PSP version is best, yes
>>148143593
>>148143904
Can we take the time now to talk about what they tried to do with the PSP version of P2?
I played it recently and it seems like they tried to make the battle system a bit more like P1's but without actually changing how P2 works?
>>148143904
Not a single negative review.

I think you must have inhaled some toxic gases. She is not in your bed, she is a cartoon girl.

Why are short haired girls so great?
> Aigis 10/10
> Fuuka 10/10
> Naoto 9/10

Ok, Yukari is complete garbage, but they're still superior.
I love Anne.
>>148150404
What do you think of Makoto so far?
>>148150404
Fuuka's ugly af fàm lmao
>>148150404
Short haired girls are the best because they look more like boys.
In fact you could make them even better by just making them boys honestly.
>>148150404
Yukari... Had a hard life.
(Yu)
>>148151186
why is Yu in Persona 3?
>>148150568
You lost me.
>>148150505
She's an absolute godess. But that's just the Persona universe, where everyone looks divine.
>>148150538
Get your eyes checked mate. And it's not only the looks, but her character as well.
>>148150568
I'm not gay, my man. But something about short hair makes my hormones rage.
>>148150672
No sympathy from me
i hope the next persona mc is ugly af so i can relate. it always hurts playing persona, because everyone is so beautiful
>>148151186
>>148151186
He actually kinda looks like human Teddie with that evoker
>>148150494
S-stop that! You're not me!
>>148150538
Fuuka is very pretty tho.
I hate Anne!
>>148153563
That mouth looks really fucking weird
>>148153147
You're right. I love her more.
>>148153782What the fuck did you just fucking say about my love for Anne, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in Syujin High School, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on corrupt adults and I have over 300 confirmed "I love Anne"s. I am trained in persona warfare and I’m the top waifufag in the entirety of /pg/. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of phantom thieves across Japan and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my default persona. Not only am I extensively trained in physical attacks, but I have access to the entire arsenal of magical attacks and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

Yu's clones are not as handsome as the real deal
Wifey gonna kill me she the female OJ
>>148160178
True
DR's artstyle is pretty weird in general so that's not surprising
Arima either has fucked face or neck is too thick
I know that a lot of Tourabufags consider Ichigo a Yu clone but fuck them, Nakigitsune is the real Yu clone and he's the best one so far, though he's more cute than handsome
I can't really think of any more of them
Has this dude come back yet?
how similar are dangit ronpon and persona or is it just that DR is "inspired by" the persona series
>>148161753
It's not really similar at all. Danganronpa is basically a mix of Ace Attorney and Zero Escape only with high schoolers.
>>148161753
Nothing, it's Battle Royale on High School with Sherlock Holmes esque investigation.
>>148162459
>>148162606
Weird, I could have sworn someone in this thread saying the creator was a big Persona fan and DR is really derivative.
>>148162707
The only thing I could think of is you'll sometimes get to have what are essentially mini social links with the other characters, but they may as well not even exist most of the time.
>>148161137
Nope - I did Ryuji for him though since another anon asked

Leaving Danganronpa faggotry aside, which cast of the six main games would perform better on a Zero Scape like game?
I'd say P2:EP's cast just because Baofu, Nanjo and Katsuya
>>148172331
They all die

If short-haired girls are so great, why do they always look twice as attractive with long hair?
What is your plans for Persona 5's wait?
>Leave 4chan during two months and a half, starting September 1st
>Then, once the inital spoiler wave is finished, return to low-risk boards like /g/, /co/ and such with filters
>Beat P5 and finally go back to shitpost on /pg/
Sometimes I feel like you guys are shitposting in that community to get me to post it here.Stop it.
>>148173787

>get bored after just a few days
>cave in to the pressure
>come back
>immediately get spoiled
That's my plan.
>>148173787
>leave at release
>play FFXV for 5 months
>hopefully never come back
>>148173787
stay here and not give a fuck to be honest
>>148172913
They don't .
>>148173787
Leave pg when it gets fast until it calms down a bit, then come back. I don't really care about spoilers, I just don't want to deal with a pg that isn't dead or dying.
>>148174264
How much time will take /pg/ to "die" again? 1-2 years?
>>148174361
Probably a while. I can wait.
>>148174361
I'd say you're looking at 6 months or so of /pg/ being interchangeable with /v/, then not more than a year for it to fully die down. Depends on any post-release material too.
>>148171595
Don't insult the dead.
>>148174246
But they always do.
>>148177425
picture unrelated
>>148177425
But that's wrong. Yes, there can be some appeal, but it also goes the other way. A girl with long hair cutting it short can look good, too. It's not the length you appreciate but the change itself.
>>148177714
This. If he's trying to sell that a girl always looks better if she grows her hair, he's using the wrong artist.

Aigis was a mistake. Let's forget that she ever happened.

If you're from the future
In the middle of my first Persona game and playthrough. Just fused this fucker and maxed his magic. What should i invest in next? Agility?
>>148192138
It's usually better to fuse new personas then trying to spend all your time on one.
>>148192138
How did you max his magic?
>>148192346
Yeah but this is like the last Magic persona I think. He's the one you get from a social link and ragnarok is a signature move.
>>148192346
That's Surt nigga, he's better off keeping him for a long time.
>>148192378
Arcade in FES probably.
>>148192378
>he didn't go to the arcade every day to make his favorite personas overpowered
>>148192435
Signature moves in P3 can still be passed on to other Personas. Either way Surt is worth keeping.
>>148192525
That's social link time.
>>148192378
Wand of King items. I've saved up all my gems that I've collected up to level 54.my boy shinjiro got murdered recently if that gives you an idea of my progress.
>>148192525
>Seigfried with 99 str, just Vorpal Blade every encounter for the last quarter of Tartarus
Yuko is best girl.
>>148192629
Who needs S.Links when you can one shot and dodge every encounter
Ok /pg/ what was your main arcana you liked your first playthrough of Persona 3 and what persona carried you the most? Mine was Emperor and Odin
>>148192870
If you're not doing the S links, why even play Persona when you could be playing a real shin megoomi tensay game like Nocturne or Strange Journey?
>>148193003
I'm not gonna spend time with the fat fuck and the creepy jew If i can avoid it.
>>148193003
Anyone got the Morgana Shin Megoomi Tensay image?
>>148192991
I'm in the middle of my first playthrough now, and I really like the Star social link with Mamoru. It's extremely relatable for me. Haven't finished it yet though.
>>148192991
I liked Priestess, Hierophant and Hanged man personas the most.
Sarasvati was great thanks to buffs, healing and high ice damage
>>148193283
oh, Sun was cool too
>>148192991
What >>148192861 said, I just used Siegfried a lot.
>>148192861
>>148192991
same, Siegfried a best
i like how his design is (relatively) normal compared to some of the rest, it's got that classical look
>>148192861
>>148193417
Third for Yuko. Romanced that babe immediately. I was in tears when the MC actually got it in. The writing in this game has me kekking all day erry day.
I'm mad hyped to see if Persona 4 is better. I should finish FES tonight or tomorrow.
>>148193752
it's better in some ways, worse in others
your mileage may vary but they're similar enough that if you like one you'll probably like the other
>>148192991
Siegfried and Kohryu
I somehow never finish Emperor but Odin was freaking broken when I use him in the Answer
>>148193752
I think the Elizabeth portion is the funniest of the game. I've yet to find something that interesting even in P4, a game that is known to have silly stuff
>>148192138
So, what stat should I prioritize boosting with this Surt?
>>148193752
>I'm mad hyped to see if Persona 4 is better
Should we tell him?
>>148195245
Yeah everything about P4 is better
>>148195309
Did someone forget to tell you too?
>>148195245
Yeah. Tell him about Rise's lewdness.
>>148195245
>Should we tell him?
Yes. He'll be glad to know that P4 is pretty awesome.
Let's discuss Ryuji's ass
>>148195902
Let's discuss Ryoji's instead
>>148196073
Kaworu a shit
>>148196228
We're talking about Ryoji. Totally different character. No resemblance to Kaworu.
>>148196467
Who's the third guy? Still voiced by Ishida I guess?
>>148197336
Komaeda
Nope, Megumi Ogata. Same VA as Ken.
>>148198478
Should be replaced the white haired kid from Mirai Nikki then. He was voiced by Ishida and is pretty much a 1:1 Kaworu clone.
>>148198915
The only thing I remember about that character besides that Mirai Nikki was a guilty pleasure of mine is that he was turned gay by a time god or some shit which sounds like the title to a Chuck Tingle novel.
>>148198478
>Same VA as Ken.
and shinji (ikari that is), since we're on the subject of 7 degrees of separation
>>148201715
I want to fuck Nanako
Alright /pg/, what is Nanako playing?

Those are some really terribly shooped hands.

>>148209305
I want Trish to return. If demons get to come back, so should that She-Jew.
Wake up.
The fox was just as good at extortion as Trish, but only the fairy gets the bad rep. Probably because you couldn't pat Trish's head to have her cough up an item.
>>148211098
Fox was cuter, gave discouts, had fluffy tail and little foxes
>>148211098
The fox gave discounts if you bothered to do the SL. Trish never changed, even if you spread a rumor.
>>148211183
fox also provided a service to the community by maintaining the shrine, circulating money back into the local economy. trish's business model is purely parasitical
>>148212496
She's so greedy, Oberon kicked her out fairy kingdom.

whoevers playing mitsuru has got a good vogue
So I'm playing through P3 in Japanese as sort of a trial run to see if I'm up to snuff to handle P5 come SeptemberI'm not ;_;and I noticed something during the beach babe hunt segment.
When you approach the final babe, I don't think she's actually a tranny.
Like, it might just be a mix of my jap being weak and the fact there was some slang I didn't really get in the scene, but far as I could tell the scene played out like the movie where she was just really forward with the guys and they ran off like scared bitches in response.
Is this actually accurate? Was she really a dude only in the dub version?
>>148217128
That shit was retconned, who cares.
>>148217128
>one of the single most bitched about moments in the franchise might be a dub-only invention, thus absolving Atlus itself of any blame for it
holy shit please let this be true, I want to see Atlus USA get mobbed online for this shit if it is
>>148217128
Someone should look into the japanese version of that scene
>>148217128
This is fucking hilarious if true, someone needs to investigate it pronto.
>>148217207
I've never seen anyone bitch about it but then again, I don't pay attention to this kind of stuff too often.
>>148217128
out of curiosity, what was the slang?
>>148217301
Which NPC was that?
>>148218025
The final chick you talk to before Aigis on the beach, during the holiday to Mitsuru's resort
I don't know why, but P5's gameplay on the city feels very similar to Yakuza (Except the random thugs trying to beat you). I like it if that means we will have tons of stupid yet addictive minigames.
Are party member social links not available during the period whereNanako is captured?
I've played a few days past that point, and none of them have been available. Normally I wait to do the dungeon until the first rainy day after it becomes available, but does this mean I should do the dungeon as soon as possible so I don't miss out on a bunch of opportunities to increase social links?
>>148218523
Yep.
Yep. The only time you should wait with finishing the dungeon is in December,
>>148218523
Yes.
Also note that Dojima's and Nanako's social links become permanently unavailable after that point, so if you didn't max them by the time November starts then you're shit out of luck
>>148218271
http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm13044055
Then it starts at 13:31, I'm exactly not sure what they're saying but that anon might be right, it doesn't seem to play out like in English version.
LJ and that Nip talking make my head hurt.
>>148219175
>>148219175
Holy shit, yeah, it really does seem that she's just sexually agressive.
The tranny shit was made up by Atlus USA themselves, this is fucking delicious.
>>148219684

What artists out there have music similar to the P5 OST?
>>148226363
Try some stuff from the legends of Italian horror films, when 50% of the budget went to the soundtrack: I give you the band Goblin.
This one's from 1975's Deep Red:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pIF8goapapU
>>148227498
Feels a bit too 'prog', the melody isnt as strong or 'groovy' as P5.
>>148226363
Try Jamiroquai.
Wake up!
