I always assumed Arcsys did the menus themselves but I double checked and saw the last JP BlazBlue didn't have english options so I'm mistaken!

Imagine if this trailer had been a month ago when we were voting for most hyped game of 2015 persona 5 might have won

No social links confirmed? Any idea what cooperation is? In any case, my fucking DICK MAN!
Certainly would have been higher than it was. Was already a feat for it being there without us having seen anything about it.
It's not often that a game is so confident about what it is, and doesn't hesitate to show it. P Studio could have played it safe, resting on the laurels of P3 and—especially—P4's success, but they went in a wildly different direction. That's commendable.
Well I mean Dragon Age had a similar problem and it won tons of GoY awards. My worry is that it doesn't have enough profile for people buy it over something like Star Wars or Uncharted this year. I want as much people to discover this game as possible and that will be more likely at less crowded time of the year.
cooperation probably is this games social links.

The bear puns are dead. All hail our new cat overload!
Purrfect!
Cooperation is obviously social links. In Japanese, social links were called community. They clearly just have a slightly different name now.
That's what I'm saying. Both in terms of sales and in terms of critical reception, November for Persona 5 would suck big time.

SHIIIIIIIIT that was hype. Can't wait for this, day 1 US import. Unless by some miracle this game releases at the same time in Europe.

Well, there goes my chance of winning any RPG of the Year awards this year (assuming P5 doesn't get delayed to 2016).

Social Links were called Community in the Japanese release, it's likely that Social Links have been replaced/updated and this is the new term being used... we won't know for sure, but it seems very unlikely that Atlus would remove one of the big draws from P3/4. Especially wouldn't make sense while still keeping the highschool focus.

Are people seriously asking if there would be more party members? They're not going to front load everything/everyone in one trailer =_=
This doesn't make sense to me. Most of the highest praised and best selling games come out in November, even despite the clutter. Any earlier and it's going to be completely forgotten.
Although, I don't really like talking about GOTY consideration before we even know if the game is good or not.
Might have something to do with the heist aspect--recruiting people into your thieving fold as opposed to just generally befriending them.

Lol is that the cat in his bag
This doesn't make sense to me. Are you talking about the AAA, massive budget games with a ton of marketing to back them up? Because Persona 5 isn't one of those, so I don't see why you're comparing it to those.

Persona has always had a high school focus (except for Eternal Punishment), even before they started doing the whole S-Link thing.
But I agree that I'd be shocked if they completely did away with S-Links. I imagine they're still in the game, hopefully in an upgraded form.
Good catch. Did not peep that at all.

I'm starting to be able to see the trailer in my head just listening to the mp3 Thoraxes put up, with the proper parts of the trailer matching up to the proper parts of the song.
Send help.

I definitely prefer dogs myself, but a cat works better with what their doing here I think. Cat burglers and doing a bunch of agile shit. Dogs are awesome, but they're nowhere near as agile as a cat.
And we already had Koromaru, who was the man.

More specifically, in P3 the party members had their own character development arcs within the main story, and you only had social links with female party members which were "secondary" character arcs for them. In P4 all party member character development after they joined happened in their social links, which gave P4 the aforementioned "sempai I need you to solve all my problems!" feel.
P4 wound up that way primarily because the characters' rescue arcs already focused entirely on them, so it didn't really make sense to slow down the rest of the main story with the rest of their development, so it all went into their social links (most of which were basically about how they applied what they learned from their shadows to their lives.) So P5 probably won't be that way unless it also uses P4's "the party members all have to confront their inner demons before they can use their Personas" structure.

This truly looks awesome!
That there's speculation? Yeah, because there's no "social link" section to the menu(there's a "community" section). Is it true? Seriously doubtful. The trailer pretty much showed that the calendar system is still in, and I frankly don't see the calendar system existing without social links.
Persona menus alone have more artistic merit than most entire video games.

The woman in the lab coat could conceivably be an older Fuuka. Same general hair style & similar color.

and the doctor seem hate cat based on the poster
Games media will play it regardless, and if it hits the right notes, it'll win GOTY. Time wouldn't affect that. Reviewers often ignore anything that comes before September, honestly.
In the past, I might have agreed with you, but now I think GOTY lists are more inclusive.

The colors! Love how the utilization of colors has seemingly made a big return. This is like spectrum overdrive. Current gen HD + spectrum of color = HEAVEN!The city is beautiful!

Maybe Sony will put some marketing muscle behind it? They don't have much on the holiday (that we knew) except UC4.
Which gives Persona a higher chance at being lost with all that noise. Big triple A games that come out around that time have massive marketing budgets. Budgets that Persona 5 has no chance of matching. It's a game on the verge of breaking out of niche so I want it to have as much room to breathe as possible
Oh man, what a trailer to wake up today 
It seems that Cooperation are the Social Links. Some people here have mentioned that in Japan, the social links are called Community; so maybe Cooperation will be the japanese name.
Edit. I've been trying to catch-up with the thread, but it's impossible lol

somebody already translated her name out of the shop menu. I forget what it was, but it wasn't Fuuka.

Do you actually think Persona 5 can fight it out with the Annual giants like COD and AC?
Persona is king of niche hill, you're not going to see it being advertise on TV.
