I prefer P4 over P3, but I still really love P3 and the soundtrack is god tier.

But The Answer, ugh. I can't even explain exactly why, to be honest, but I hate it.

About P5's tone, I don't think it'll "darker", just more serious. And I hope it's not about the end of the world.

I hope they go that way. Of course, we will get some fun stories and jokes on the way, and Im sure some character will be the comedy relief one, and Im all for that, but I really hope is not going into the dark end of the world (how a 15 years old likes dark) stuff. We are past that and that is why i didnt like much P3's story.

Maybe the main character is a nerdy guy this time that needs to make friends, who knows.

Also apart from some songs I enjoy a lot more P4's soundtrack. Im not much into rap though, so no pitchfork for me.
 
Also, far more succintly, the Persona 4 OST makes the P3 OST sound like hot garbage.

If there is one thing where I rank P3 over P4 it's the soundtrack. Loved especially the final battle track.
 
My fat ps3 sounds like a jet engine and raises the temperature in whatever room I play it in.
Oh man, I know what you're talking about. I have a fat and a slim. Had to send my fat out for repairs a couple of months ago, and when it came back, it was totally silent when I turned it on. It actually freaked me out a bit.
 

Read thread title and the first few words of the OP, then backed out.

You know, for some reason I never thought about using the word 'serious' at all while I've been posting in this thread. You're absolutely right that P3 was more dark for the sake of saying the game is a dark without having enough seriousness to go with it.

Yeah, I'd like P5 to be more serious than P3 and 4.
 
Why are people so eager to get rid of their PS3s anyway? Thing's not even EOL yet, and won't be for a few years if previous PS consoles are any indication.

I still have my SNES.

The only reason I was still keeping my PS3 was because of Persona 5. Now that a game I want so bad is coming to a next gen system I don't own but planned on getting, it's just too perfect of an opportunity to pass up. Persona 5 on the PS4 will be for me what Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey were for me on the 360, which is the biggest motivating factor for why I must own the system.

Prior to this Uncharted 4 was my biggest reason for wanting a PS4, but, honestly, not finding myself much too excited by the other things I saw happening on the system, I was beginning to waffle a bit on whether even Uncharted 4 could do it for me. Persona 5 erased all that doubt the instant I heard it confirmed for PS4.
 
So the question now is: When do they show the actual game? Is there any chance of them showing it off at TGS proper? A Famitsu cover story before the end of the year?

Lots of chance for that happening.....in fact I expect it to happen. The producer just came out to apologise for the long wait.
 
OMG this is amazing. Hope it was an intentional joke from the devs form the start and we just discovered it, its probably just a coincidence though.

Car manufacturer logos as Persona school emblems has been known for a very long time now. I believe one of the developers even denied it in an interview at some point, though the inspiration is obvious.

Im more of a fun type guy, so thats why I liked a LOT more P4. Still I wouldnt mind having a more serious story with P5. Of course, like you said, when Im talking about serious is not the dark edgy stuff, but more in line with normal character lifes and situations you can find in Catherine. Like people can crack a joke or two in a conversation but still talk of serious things at the same time. The social conversation with the characters in the bar is the stuff im talking about. Characters can still be tropes (thats how people like or hate a characters, and I think is essential when you build one, even if you are trying to reverse that trope) but be great.
Also even during serious stories, friends can feel like real friends like in P4 (aside from being so wacky it was best at doing that), and not the crap they tried to feed us in P3.

Or maybe they've been getting paid to subliminally advertise these brands.
;)

:O Clever....

Interesting, I never know about that.
 
NO, the battle there is dog shit(although femc on p3p fixed that though).

Thats why I said nearly ;)

Battle for Everyone's Souls more than makes up for it. One of the best boss battle theme's I have heard period.

They're wildly different. Persona 2's OSTs have upwards of 120 tracks, so you're bound to like something there. P3/P4's have more polish, but less variety.

Its been a long time since I've heard the OST but nothing really stuck. I might check it out again.

What do you think of this theory?

Sorry if this was already posted.

Same character designer draws similar looking characters.
 
It just is. P4 had no stand out songs while I still strongly remember a few from P3's.

While I agree that P3 had the better OST(Especially if you include P3P's addition with the FeMC), there was at least one standout. Persona 4 had a decent OST.

Didn't have a great experience with P1. Don't know about P2.

psp remake of 2: IS has broken random battle encounter rate. Which would be a nice challenge if all the enemies weren't made easy as hell. Otherwise, good story at least even if Lisa is annoying as hell.

Reach out to the truth immediately came to mind when you said that. But yeah P3s OST is wayysss better

Yeah, and I kinda get the impression that some people may confuse the two, as if one was necessary for the other.

You don't need shit like strega and end of the world stories in order not to be upbeat like Persona 4 was (and I loved it for that). That was just lame as fuck, and I really hope when people say they want it to be darker, they actually just mean more serious, instead of this kind of stuff.
 
Are the pre-P3 Personas worth picking up from the PSN store?

Depends on how well you can tolerate old PS1 JRPGs. Persona 1 and 2 duo-logy are really good games, but they've aged rather poorly. However, the story and characters are really good. Especially P2 duo-logy which has, in my opinion, the best story and characters in the series.
 
Which consoles are Persona 2 and 3 out for?

Is it like this:

Persona 2: Innocent Sin (PS1)
Persona 2: Eternal Punishment (PSP)
Persona 3: FEZ (PS2)
Persona 3: PS (PSP)

?

?
Innocent sin is on PSP as a remake and PS1
Eternal Punishment is on PSP as a remake that never got localized so the only way to play it in english is through the PS1 version on PSN

everything else is right

What?

Ok, so let's clear this up:

In first release order:
Persona 2: Innocent Sin(PS1 and later remade on PSP)
Persona 2: Eternal Punishment (PS1, later remade on PSP, never brought west)
Persona 3 (PS2)
Persona 3: FES (PS2)
Persona 3 Portable (PSP)

Do you like mainline SMT games? It's kinda like that. Not sure what else to say. I like P2 the best but P1 still is a fine game. If you son't mind older JRPGs you'll probably like it. P2 has proto-Chie in it. ;)
 



Thanks guys, I'll listen to them and the rest of the OST and see whats up.

Well-deserved! I was giddy when seeing "P*Studio" appear during the pre-TGS stream.

when he said a certain ps3 title was also coming to ps4 I was like yoooooo and then I saw the Atlus logo and was like yoooooooooooooooo
 
holy shit it's on PS4 now thank God. I was so finished with my PS3 ages ago (because I sold it)

(because why still have it)


(seriously)
