I certainly don't think anyone takes it seriously, although that might reflect my opinions on it. Persona 4 Golden had costumes for dungeons but I doubt they will let you change clothing if you still go to school which it seems like you do as you're in uniform.
That sucks. You'd think a game designed to emulate the school experience would let you choose what to wear. Even with uniforms, there's always something you could do to personalize it.
 
So that whole "slave" thing, and wanting emancipation. This trailer makes me think maybe it's how we are a slave to technology, or more specifically cell phones. Phones are prominent in every scene shown, with multiple characters holding their phones, staring at their phones, or talking on them. Possible that the plot has something to do with freeing yourself from the technology.

Or it's just a realistic interpretation of Japan and I'm just reading way too much into it.

EDIT: And I'm way late to this.
 
For some reason the lens flare made me think PERSONA 5: DIRECTED BY MICHAEL BAY!

nice though, looks convincing enough to be a advertising campaign type thing or something

thank you thank you.

Actually the amount of lens flare in the trailer itself made me think of Michael Bay :D
 
To show my support of the selfie theory, I made a selfie:

Ha! Nice!!!!!! That scene towards the end gave me chills.

I think it's a general slave to modern society and social norms, with technology being a major factor.
 
I can at least kinda understand why people wear down they keyboards talking about characters like Chie, but that guy in the trailer looks about as charismatic as a piece of crustless toast.

There was that thread a while back about why SMT fans and Persona fans don't get along. This is the reason why.

Demonica suit is TOTES ADORBZ :3 :3 :3
 
Can I discuss the possible archetypes of the female leads? I sorta can't tell and would rather not risk angering mods this week
 
visually do you think this game is going to look as good as catherine you know when you're walking around the bar and stuff..just trying to picture how it will visually look since it can go above and beyond on ps4

I'm torn. I think if they went with Catherine-style graphics, they'll want to do away with visual novel dialouge, which I like very much. But, Catherine...
 
What kind of list is that then?

The trailer looks good. MC design is meh. Return to big city is meh too. I quite grew fond of Inaba combared to Persona 3's setting. Oh yeah and PS4 release is good news obviously. Step closer to PC release and superior option to PS3 anyway.

The kind of list we have each year? Also not sure how it's a step closer to a pc release because it didn't move 1 cm towards that direction.

Never played a Persona, but I might give this a try. Is it turn based on action RPG?

turn based
 
I don't know, that shot of the eyes is pretty iconic now. Don't think there's any deeper meaning to it.

If they did have to take a selfie to summon their Personae it would have to be in some sort of super stylish, all in one motion type of thing. Cuz boy it would look lame of that just hold the phone up to their face like people normally do.

I wouldn't get your hopes up for a PC release. How many Atlus games have ever launched on PC before anyways?

The list where you put the games based on your experience from playing them? You're right it's not actually closer to PC release but PS3 to PC port takes more resources than PS4 to PC port.

I wouldn't get your hopes up for a PC release. How many Atlus games have ever launched on PC before anyways?

You're right. Not many. Then again Atlus has been publishing on PC for quite some time now and Sega Sammy has had good experiences with PC before so who knows? I wouldn't say I'm getting my hopes up but I wouldn't surprised to see it happen either.
 
I find it sad that the whoring of Persona 4, culminating with the current anime, has kind of dulled my interest in the game. But at least they're putting it out on PS4.

And still no Female MC? Boo.
 
I don't get it, what is the theory?

Possibly that taking selfies can somehow lead to the kinds of strange happenings that take place in Persona 3 at midnight or in Persona 4 while the midnight channel is on.

I'd love for the smartphone to be used as a way to call in personas somehow. Also, the PS4 touchpad could have some creative use in this game. :D
