Yup. FFXV is honestly something I'm not too hyped for anymore. I'll definitely play it come release time but I'm not really hyped for it.

So, the main character wears a cloak, has a persona with a top hat, and uses knives as his main weapon?
Hmmm, gee, who else had those things?
Oh yes, Jack the Ripper.
But...

Persona 1 and 2 are skipable, IMO (2 is debatable)
Play Persona 3 FES and P4G. Both awesome games and it's possible P5 will reference or throw in some easter eggs about them similar to P4G with P3.

that was really bad. they should either stick with what they know(nintendo) or at the very least bring in someone who knows his/her shit.
Neither Orpheus nor Izanagi were collectible in previous games, right? (Izanagi was in Nocturne though, but still not in a Persona-series game)
I think the MC Persona will be unique. Just a guess, unless they switch from the Wild Card power.

Other persona's got redesigns because they were on a playable character. For example Susano-o, and Kanji's persona were both obtainable in P3 with different designs
Isn't P3 for ps2? I would not be able to play it. I'll see if I'm able to try out P4.

The thirst is real. I'm really glad this is out for PS3 as well. I don't wanna buy more consoles.

Well, he does have 5 crossed out hearts on his visible shoulder, with 5 being the amount of killings people believed were definitely connected to Jack the Ripper. But that's probably just what's visible.

You can download FES in the PS Store. I played it on my PS3.

If you can get ahold of a Vita for P4 you can get the digital download of P3 for it off the Sony store.
Ryuji has blonde hair and looks like a delinquent. Ryuji is Kanji confirmed.
The Junko comparisons are not funny and pointless.

You can get both of them through download on PS3, and if you have a vita you can get Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden. And regardless, the games are standalone. The Persona 3 cameos in persona 4 were incredibly minimal

Nah, Atlus stole Ryuji's design from Naruto.

No. They're separate stories only sharing similar gameplay.

Not at all. P4G is the best entry honestly at this point. If you can get a Vita the portability of it makes the game even more enjoyable.
AWESOME, I'll do that then

No but if you want to play their spinoffs, which work as a continuation of the story, you do. Persona Q and Persona 4 Arena are crossover games of Persona 3 and Persona 4.
I'm going to get started on P1 and P2 since I've only beaten 3 and 4. Ahh the hype buildup.
Of course, it's just commenting on design and nothing more. Her design is already one of my favourites in the series.
The school outfit too.
Who said they're meant to be funny? I like Junko's design so I also really like Annes.

Oh god... Persona Q. Down the rabbit hole you go. After that game I had to go track down Etrians.

Yeah for newcomers I would suggest playing Persona 3 before Persona 4.
It has mature themes. Not really mature in a sense with lots of blood or gore or anything like that.
Also some cursing here or there.
P4G before P3 is the way to go, much smoother introduction to the mechanics and the pacing is so much better. P3 is excellent for playing afterwards.
People should probably try to play Persona 3 Portable if they want to play 3. Then they won't have to deal with the awful gameplay decisions.
The high school stuff is much better than most examples. You should give the series a shot.

"Anne Takamaki" is actually a Finnish name. I wonder if she's a foreigner like Lisa in Persona 2...
She actually looks Finnish with the blonde hair and blue eyes. Here's a finnish women in comparison.

I can only think of this as a good thing. And as for the spinoffs in general, they're all good, but the arena games being fighting games are a considerably different experience, so keep that in mind. That said, anyone who played and loved P3 and P4 should try out Persona Q if they can, it's fantastic and the fanservice is great (Although I'd recommend putting it off if you haven't played both of them until you have)

I've never played any other Persona game, but, Persona 4 Golden is one of my favorite games of all time.
