Support NeoGAF

[Zareka]

So, Atlus...DAN now? Right?

Spoiler

Please? ;_;

 

[Stone Ocean]

Are you going to call up your Personas this time around? Or maybe you whip yourself to bring them in.

Maybe breaking chains instead of tarot cards?

Tearing up cell phone contracts.

 

[Nimby]

I actually already made up the calling scene in my head. Looks cool man.

Whips are the new evokers. Cracking them summons your persona.

Spoiler

I could actually see that.

 

[Tinfoilhatsron]

Possible, but I would expect more on your supporting cast a bit closer to release!

Yea, that's my guess, but I can hope! Probably going some secret characters only shown on release day.

 

[SenjutsuSage]

Tearing up cell phone contracts.

haha.

 

[wrowa]

The jokes are just as insufferable.

It doesn't really matter if it's a joke when it continually dominates threads.

Based on these replies I'm not sure if you're agreeing with me or if my English just failed me when writing my last post. :lol

"It's annoying despite being a joke" is what I wanted to say, but now I'm not sure if that's what I actually said.

You are slave, want fair prices?

 

[Commanche Raisin Toast]

i'm super pumped for this game. so happy it's coming to PS4. i hope they start revealing more gameplay stuff soon and also confirm a US release. (was it confirmed for the US before the delay?)

ever since P3, anime scenes on passenger trains/subways always give me feels.

 

[BasilZero]

Wow I am still gonna get it on ps3 though...May double dip xD

 

[Teknoman]

I don't get it, what is the theory?

In game selfie reveals the true self aka Persona?

 

[Afrocious]

Tearing up cell phone contracts.

Lmao

While we're at it, when the cast gets their Persona powers, they're each given an iPhone 6. Our evil Persona users will use google phones, while the main antagonist will be a giant Windows phone.

Of course, everyone will have AT&T.

 

[Love Deterrence]

So, Atlus...DAN now? Right?

Please? ;_;

is that still a thing? I hope so!

Maybe breaking chains instead of tarot cards?

I like it!

Tearing up cell phone contracts.

/dead

Yeah, I hear ya! Hope so!!

 

[Gbraga]

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.

That's really really interesting, so people being enslaved to their phones and stuff wouldn't be just metaphorical, but shadows would actually be influencing them? That's too interesting to be true, unfortunately.

 

[Deleted member 125677]

I think I'm most excited about how (or if) they'll improve on dungeon design and combat in this next entry. Those are the stand out weak points of P4G imo, which is so amazing in most other regards. I also hope I don't have to do as much chores as in 4 to improve my character

And I hope the music will blow me away

 

[Setsu00]

PQ doesn't use them. I'd actually like Minotaur and Dullahan to return.

There are some new Personas in there, though. I think they were designed by Yuji Himukai, character designer for the Etrian Odissey series.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

With sega publishing ultimax in Europe I wonder if they will do the same with this .

 

[Mr. Desu]

Oh man I really want that.

 

[Snakeyes]

Heh, maybe the Vita could be used as a display for the protag's smartphone as a cool little gimmick.

 

[desmax]

Don't you use your phone to summon demons in SMT IV?

Summoning personas with them would be pretty cool, too

 

[RalchAC]

I don't know if I like the main character all that much. I think they kind of nailed the aspect with P4 MC.

He is quite average even if characters say you're handsome at least two times per hour played lol. P4 characters are strongly asociated with colours (Chie is green, Yukiko is red, Yosuke is orange...) so using different shades of grey, white and black make him kind of look more "neutral".

Overall I think the design is not bad though.

Teacher: PERSONAAA!

lol

The video is totally awesome. I laughed a lot when Hermione uses God Hand against Neville lol.

 

[Imru’ al-Qays]

What're the odds there'll be a female protag? They added one with Persona 3 FES but not with Persona 4 The Golden, right?

 

[Superflat]

Wouldn't be surprised if there was a Catherine-esque texting/calling mechanic complete with a smart phone interface as a new method of contacting/interacting with social links.

Nah thats Devil Survivor 2. SMTIV went back to the traditional arm COMP's for demon summoning.

 

[Kurtofan]

Is husbando talk banned as well

edit: seems it is lol

 

[Deleted member 125677]

Yes

 

[-Horizon-]

I'll laugh if they go down the cell phone path to summon demons.

Spoiler

Yes.

Are there images of all of them?

NPCs do.

oh, right

 

[Canis lupus]

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.

That's exactly the list. I'm pretty good at predicting what will be my favourite games.

 

[Superflat]

I'll laugh if they go down the cell phone path to summon demons.

Spoiler

Devil Survivor 2?

Swipe your unique lock screen on the PS4 touch pad to summon Persona!

 

[ChosenPredator]

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...

Yeah, either direction would be fine but I am leaning slightly towards the catherine style

 

[-Horizon-]

PS3 version it is then!

 

[Curufinwe]

Y2Kev really renovated this thread. Nice.

I don't see the similarity at all.

There is none.

 

[-Horizon-]

Reminds me of this guy a little bit. Not a good thing. Easily my least favorite design since P1.

Ummmmm...

 

[Nintendoga]

What're the odds there'll be a female protag? They added one with Persona 3 FES but not with Persona 4 The Golden, right?

There was a female protag in P3P. Odds are pretty low. Only other time we had one was Maya in P2 EP.

Side note, as someone mentioned before one of the chains is broken on the chair on the P5 website. Wondering if that means there's only 4 other members in the party.

I really hope they go the P1/2 route and let everyone in the party fight at once.

 

[EdwardTeach]

What about vita? I suspect that would take more engineering as they might have to dial things down a bit for the vita. Still I hope it does make it to the vita as persona is synonymous with vita for me.

 

[Stone Ocean]

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...

Catherine cutscenes for major plot points like boss cutscenes, VN dialogue for daily dialogue.

 

[Love Deterrence]

PS3 version it is then!

Ha! I do wonder if this game will support second-screen functionality, seeing as cell phones seem to play some sort of role in the game.

 

[DeadmanV2]

So, Atlus...DAN now? Right?

Spoiler

Please? ;_;

Pretty sure it's still a thing since it's vaguely alluded to in Ultimax

Spoiler

and Rise even wears her Dancing outfit at one point

I'm just hoping that P5 is good, and that after we get all the Persona stuff released we'll get info on SMT x FE and Break Record... assuming the latter even still exists. ;~;

 

[Deadpandas]

That's not a dude, never, not in a million years. If that's a dude I'll set fire to my crotch. There's no way

 

[randomkid]

tell me more about community threads you've never read

For some reason that thread likes to pretend they're above this tired ass shit but the constant fanart and rankings you see in between the tumblr chatting tell a different story. Nobody cares if you are just having fun when it's the same "joke" for the thousandth time.

It's been a looooong time coming, but this time the thread infected was high profile enough for some new mods to take action, thanks Kev~~~

 

[Nimby]

Catherine cutscenes for major plot points like boss cutscenes, VN dialogue for daily dialogue.

Nice. This would work well.

 

[Love Deterrence]

Say goodbye to your crotch.

 

[Koyuga]

The main character looks really cute, they did a good job with the design this time.
So excited about it releasing on PS4 as well, that means I get to play it on my Vita too!

Looks like a dude to me. Same way a lot of other dudes in some anime/jrpgs look.

You need to post video proof of the crotch-lighting, by the way. This being GAF and all.

 

[-Horizon-]

That'd be cool to see but kind of expensive.

Welp.

 

[GayForMaster]

Anyone can confirm this is a Sony exclusive? I would think with the most recently released Persona Arenas on both platforms, this may be multiplat but I don't know.

Bloodbourne and this huh? Looks like I'm buying a PS4.
