if you were fighting the shadows in P4G you were doing it wrong anyways.

the only enemies worth fighting:

Pffft.

 

[Flying Toaster]

Finally got a chance to see this after getting home from work.

Was hoping it had Catherine-influenced graphics, looks great.

So getting the PS4 version of the game.

your enthusiasm is good... But the correct answer is to buy all versions.

 

[JNA]

This isn't Hype... This is a lifestyle.

I can dig it!

 

[KiTA]

So wait, it's an Action RPG now?

Edit: Wait

Spoiler

Check out the eyes. That's Sho from P4A.

I hope that this investment into one PS4 game leads to many using the same engine like what happened on PS2. This should set them up for the whole generation and if we get a console RPG a year then skipping PS3 was more than worth it.

 

[Pappasman]

I think it would be really, really cool to see the MC be locked up in the velvet prison for breaking some sort of velvet law. At first they are against you but realize you can use persona or something. That would be neat.

 

[Razia]

Pffft.

What is that, a thumbnail for ants?

 

[Flying Toaster]

I can dig it!

Pffft.

Awesome guys... And Gooch knows what's up.

 

[DNAbro]

So wait, it's an Action RPG now?

what makes you think that?

 

[Laughing Banana]

I can dig it!

I... is that Yukiko?

In Persona 4 Dancing I assume? Y...Yukiko is confirmed? Oh my............. <3

 

[TheBaronOfNA]

So wait, it's an Action RPG now?

No.

 

[super-famicom]

Sadly, the P4 Dancing thread got overshadowed by this one.

 

[RiZ III]

Wow. That looks a thousand times better than anything I expected.

 

[Coolbgdog12]

Shed tears watching this.

It is actually a dance simulator and exercise game. With RPG elements.

 

[bonercop]

lol wat. We haven't even seen a P5 scene with strong lighting like that yet. It's a bit hasty to judge P5's engine based on a few seconds of footage.

Also, technical quibbles aside, from an artistic perspective they've really nailed it with P5.

I think the gap is big enough to definitively say Catherine has better lighting, but I suppose we'll have to agree to disagree!

 

[AcademicSaucer]

If the dungeons are as good as they look from the trailer, this may be the first persona game I finish in a long time

 

[Dick Justice]

So there's no chance of a pc release? Might have to bite the bullet and get a ps4 at some point to play this and Bloodborne.

 

[Xeteh]

I think the gap is big enough to definitely say Catherine has better lighting but I suppose we'll have to agree to disagree!

One game is also finished.

 

[BY2K]

Good job, IGN.

so you want the anime equivalent of the western cop media

"DAMMIT DETECTIVE, YOU'RE OFF THE WALL! BUT DAMN DO YOU GET RESULTS!!!"

 

[Tirod]

I think because of the internally developed engine that was developed for Persona 5, the likelihood of other Megaten, console games using it is very high. I'm sure Atlus knows the value in diversifying their IP, and they won't just ditch the others for Persona.

Oh I don't doubt the diversification of their line up. We've gotten plenty of great titles in various series the past 5 years, many of which I've enjoyed.

It's just a question of handheld vs console, and while I believe your musings of their engine are spot on, I just like to keep my expectations in check. Especially with the state of Japan's market right now.

 

[super-famicom]

Good job, IGN.

Fix HALO 5 is all I see here

 

[Flying Toaster]

No PC release... Gabben would never do that to the masses. Work productivity would halt.

 

[AmethystEnd]

Good job, IGN.

I wanna be about "Peronsa5" also.

 

[Parley]

I think the gap is big enough to definitively say Catherine has better lighting, but I suppose we'll have to agree to disagree!

Can we agree that nobody really knows anything, especially the lighting differences?

 

[Flying Toaster]

Can we agree that nobody really knows anything, especially the lighting differences?

Or we could all agree we need another Catherine.

 

[Cess007]

Good job, IGN.

Peronsa sounds too hilarious lol

 

[bonercop]

That's a fair point.

I hope you're right!

Speaking of shared engines, did P3 and P4 use SMT Nocturne's engine? I always felt like Nocturne looked a bit crisper, with better effects, but perhaps that was just the art style.

 

[JNA]

I... is that Yukiko?

In Persona 4 Dancing I assume? Y...Yukiko is confirmed? Oh my............. <3

Yes It is! <3

 

[Mobile Suit Gooch]

Naoto pls..

 

[danm999]

Looks terrific. Loving the aesthetic and the idea of heists as some of the justification for the missions in a Persona game.

 

[Tevos]

Naoto pls..

woah woah woah what

I forgot about this

this further points to me theory of Naoto being in P5

Spoiler

yes i know how that ends in p4

 

[Iva Demilcol]

Good job, IGN.

PE-RON-SA

 

[Love Deterrence]

Good job, IGN.

purrrr... ron... sa!

 

[Rean]

Naoto pls..

That would be crazy if they're actually referring to P5's MC.

 

[xxracerxx]

Good job, IGN.

The hell is wrong with that blue spartan?

 

[demosthenes]

Is my twitter trends personalized or is Persona 5 trending?

 

[Xeteh]

Blue Spartan Jr. doesn't quite fit in to daddy's old gear.

 

[bonercop]

Is my twitter trends personalized or is Persona 5 trending?

from what i hear it's been trending for the better part of the last day in the US.

trending for a while worldwide too.

 

[Suzushiiro]

Persona 6 will probably use the same engine.
Now that they're done developing the engine, getting more Persona games out on it will be quicker.

Yeah, Atlus' pattern with Persona games for most of the series seems to be releasing two games on the same engine in rapid succession and then waiting another six years or so to release anything else, so Persona 6 in 2017 is a very real possibility. Hopefully we won't have to wait until 2024 for Persona 7.

 

[Tevos]

Is my twitter trends personalized or is Persona 5 trending?

It was trending in both Japan and the United States today, but isn't now. You're seeing personalized. I think it was worldwide for around an hour or two as well.

 

[Owwari]

 

[Persona7]

fuck im going to be old by the time persona 7 comes out

 

[bon]

Hey cool the character models don't look like weird dolls in this one.

 

[Cow Goes Moo]

Is my twitter trends personalized or is Persona 5 trending?

it was trending worldwide for a couple of hours after the trailer dropped

peronsa doesn't seem to be trending now though

 

[Cess007]

Naoto pls..

I would love for small nod/connection to Naoto in P5. Only if it's a small reference

 

[XenoRaven]

I'm assuming someone made this a long time ago but w/e.

 

[Ourobolus]

I love my new avatar.
