When we first see the MC he's like this:

and then, all of sudden:

I'm curious if the Phantom (MC) existed even before he arrived at this city or was something created only after living in this city.

Interesting transition. Hoping this game ends up coming to the west later 15'... If only FFXV or P5 were to come at the end of 15', I would be happy. :S

 

[JNA]

I would even go as far as say that he pulls off a "Aizen" move (visually of course).

Lose the glasses, pull the hair back and boom. One sexy mf, Yu has to step up his game.

Yu already did his part.

He might be one sexy MF but he's going to have to have his own "King's Game" moment to win most swag yo.

 

[Lernaean]

I just wanna thank you for taking over that awesome Mistral artwork as an avatar after Love Deterrence just abandoned her.

Oh, i have it for a while. My previous one was another Mistral concept again by Cho.

 

[Cipher Cat]

Are you saying that the MC already knows Anne and Ryuji? That seems quite different to P3/4.

That's what I am saying yes. You can see them in their "HQ" or something. Possibly planing a heist. And dungeon crawling was also on 4/11. All of this what we saw in the trailer will happen on the first day.

 

[encephalon]

Are we still in high school? We're still in high school, aren't we?

 

[Gbraga]

Can we date ourselves in this game? Atlus, please?

Spoiler

Or at least make him gay and let me date Ryuji, that would work too.

 

[TI82]

If this actually comes out in NA in 2015 that will be amazing. I hope there is a special edition with a red controller or something. Even better a red console bundle!

 

[NeonZ]

So is he transforming into his Persona?

Ttransforming into a Persona is fine for the cast's main Persona, since they're designed around them, but a Wild Card protagonist can end up with some rather odd transformations if they're really going in this route...

 

[Philippo]

Are we still in high school? We're still in high school, aren't we?

Yup.

I was a bit worried that this would become repetitive, but man they just invented the most amazing thing to avoid that.

Like transforming into Mara...

This is assuming 4/11 is the first day. Hell, it's possible the day shown will be completely irrelevant to the final game, and that they're just using the one date as a placeholder to keep events a secret, and just showing it to show off the interface

I would rather have a voiced MC than a boyfriend option. Let's give up on this silent MC nonsense.

Yup.

I'm getting tired of the format, but I guess it's become the brand. I think what really matters, rather than setting, is pacing. P4 really struggled with pacing in the latter half of the game.

 

[Zareka]

I'm curious if the Phantom (MC) existed even before he arrived at this city or was something created only after living in this city.

I'm really interested in knowing this too. Experiencing becoming the Phantom would make more sense for the player, I guess? but it seems like it'd be really hard to pull of without being super cliché. Well, depending on how the MC handles it.

Preorder CANCELLED if I can't transform into and terrorise the city as Mara.

I've been hurt too many times to believe it makes 2015 Japan, let alone North America.

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

Looks like the Velvet room twins are the prison guards and have eye patches for some reason.

 

[Danielsan]

I would rather have a voiced MC than a husbando option. Let's give up on this silent MC nonsense.

I also hope the MC is voiced. I'd prefer a MC with a distinct personality rather than a blank canvas for players to cast their personality on.

P2:EP is the biggest argument for this.

 

[xxczx]

Close to 0 as the game has already been announced for the west "Exclusively for the Playstation 3/4"

alright, thanks

I would rather have a voiced MC than a husbando option. Let's give up on this silent MC nonsense.

That'll be amazing, I'd like social links to be gone as well. I'd be 100% happy if these four in the trailer are the only main characters.

 

[Callibretto]

My guess about the story setup, mc did something bad early on, which lead to him being in velvet prison and he had to work on fixing his mess

 

[motorised mallard]

Yu already did his part.


He might be one sexy MF but he's going to have to have his own "King's Game" moment to win most swag yo.

Maybe in the beginning of the trailer he is being chased from the casino(?) for stealing something else than money from the customers/players in the casino?

But yeah, he does need his moment to beat Yu. C'mon Atlus, do it but don't make it mandatory. A difficult decision between being the king or something else important mayhaps? It could be boring if they just one up Yu, make it interesting.

 

[TI82]

I've been hurt too many times to believe it makes 2015 Japan, let alone North America.

Theyve bewn reportedly working on this at the same time Catherine was made (same engine) so it makes sense that it should be out this year in JPN at least. E3 is the next big gameshow right? If Sony doesn't mention it further in their event id be surprised. Hell maybe even a free prologue demo to get people excited.

 

[bobawesome]

Eye patches? It just looks like shadows.

 

[Danielsan]

All of this trailer hype is making me want to get P4G (only own the PS2 version) or replay Catherine and chill out with my friends in The Stray Sheep.

 

[Perfect Cha0s]

Eye patches? It just looks like shadows.

You can see it in the in-game footage people grabbed screenshots of.

That might be pawssible yes.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Like transforming into Mara...

We're getting doujins about this, aren't we?

Yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup

Those are eye patches.

Shameless, I know

 

[Gbraga]

Sorry, but I really like the silent MC

I'm not with you on this one.

Not that I'd be against voicing him, though. If he's fully voiced, that's ok too. Whatever.

 

[Aaronrules380]

That might be pawssible yes.

That pun was catastrophically bad

 

[Love Deterrence]

I just wanna thank you for taking over that awesome Mistral artwork as an avatar after Love Deterrence just abandoned her.

Me to Mistral: I won't scatter your sorrow to the heartless sea... I will always be with you. ;_;

Velvet room changes form based on who is visiting. This has been established many times. I don't think Igor has any control over it, he just sort of roles with it

its seemingly the day at which a new school term starts in japan.

I hadn't noticed them before. Not sure how to feel about them.

 

[Cipher Cat]

That pun was cat-astrophically bad

Fixed that for you.

 

[encephalon]

I really just want pacing and content closer to Innocent Sin and Eternal Punishment.

 

[Phatmac]

That might be pawssible yes.

Are you going to keep this cat gimmick for long? Kudos to your dedication.

 

[Aaronrules380]

Fixed that for you.

I intended it to be a bit more subtle, thank you very much, so I'm nyaat happy with the change

 

[Stone Ocean]

Are you going to keep this cat gimmick for long? Kudos to your dedication.

We're getting a whole game like that, might as well get used to it-nya.

 

[JNA]

We're getting doujins about this, aren't we?

Yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup

Did you expect anything less?

 

[Aaronrules380]

Yeah, I'd say the chance that the cat never says Personya (localized as Purrsona of course) is pretty much zero

 

[Thoraxes]

My guess about the story setup, mc did something bad early on, which lead to him being in velvet prison and he had to work on fixing his mess

I think it'd have more to do with the main thematic material. He'll be shackled by his fate, society, and expectations.

 

[Love Deterrence]

Are you going to keep this cat gimmick for long? Kudos to your dedication.

Meow. You know, like a cat.

 

[Hellraider]

I'm sick and tired of eye patches, ugh.

It ruined Maya. It's a wasted opportunity for a character.

 

[todd360]

I'm sick and tired of eye patches, ugh.

Take your patch

 

[Pachimari]

Why is it the MC isn't wearing his glasses most of the time? Maybe he is only wearing them at school. He looked cool with the glasses.

Yup.

I was a bit worried that this would become repetitive, but man they just invented the most amazing thing to avoid that.

What is that, which makes the high school not repetitive?

 

[JNA]

Yeah, I'd say the chance that the cat never says Personya (localized as Purrsona of course) is pretty much zero

I hope the VA will be the female version of this:

Hell I would love it if the character was basically the female version of this. XD

 

[Cipher Cat]

It's somewhat hisssterical. You'll become fuurrmiliar with it. 😸
