FF VII Remake Part 1 or DQ XI?
Depends. I'll wait till the US release and see what's been announced concerning a release over here. Besides I might not have that choice and they might decide to region lock it for some random reason.
Don't say that! They might be listening.
I have no faith in Atlus and I suppose it goes both ways since they see Europe as an afterthought. I figured the Sega tekeover would improve them and they'd use their established network and connections to publish the game. But Sega appear to leave them be and if anything are wavering on Yakuza 0 over here for whatever reason.
in case you didn't realize the PS3 is more powerful than the Vita.
"if Persona 5 and Final Fantasy XV came out at the same time, which would you prefer?
Persona 5. Easily. But since Atlus is a dumb-dumb and won't port their shit to PC, if FFvs13 (er-"15") comes to PC day and date, and isn't a shit port unlike your previous efforts, Square... I'd pick that up over Persona.

But Persona 5 is originally a PS3 game; only last year Atlus/Sega agreed to make a PS4 port. The likely reason it was delayed this year was to add more to the PS4 version and make it 'better looking' for that one. If anything, the PS4 is the reason we can't play it this year :l.
But yah, the PS3 is a piece of crap and has horrid looking games.......great point there :l.
I should stop posting in this thread X(.

Persona 5, without a shadow of a doubt.
so true
Persona games have common monsters/abilities/items, but each mainline title has a story and cast unrelated to its predecessor. Until 3 and 4, the combat systems also varied from title to title.
So you don't need to play 1-4 to get any plot threads for 5.

Persona 5. Oh , i live in Italy nevermind.
( Region free i love you )
Such a vicious cycle for Eurpoeans. The game wont be released as early in the us so most fans will import, since it appeals to the type of gamers prone to importing (mode hard core gamers) the effect is sales in NA get a boost and sales in the Eu when the game does release are worse. This then leads Sega to conclude the interest isnt there and P6 gets released first in NA again.

I don't see how SE is "scared" of P5, I just see this as SE figuring out when FFXV should be released. P5 being the only notable JRPG in the summer release window.
Honestly they can release FFXV alongside P5 knowing it will sell more.
Also, I've changed my answer to Final Fantasy VII: Remake Part -1/7- Escape From Midgar.

Final Fantasy. SE has been good with Europe.
why would this be a deal breaker?
Persona fans have been enjoying persona 4 on ps2 since 2008. And, to be frank, Persona 5 on PS4 will probably look a lot better than a lot of other jrpgs on ps4.

Persona, but I'd still get both.
Funny, XV was originally a PS3 game too, but what it has become definitely couldn't run on a PS3. I find it hard to believe the PS4 can handle it at 1080p/60fps
this thread damn. The idea of Persona eating Final Fantasy's lunch is hilarious and awesome to me. I dunno if the FF brand has been crapped on enough over the years for that to be possible, I mean I played FF14 with a bunch of weirdos that kept talking shit about lightning returns then bought it anyways. But P5's gonna be huge.
This is one game I can see Atlus releasing simultaneously on both JP and US.

this post made fucking screamI just CTRL+F'd every page with 'Persona' and almost spat out my drink - has GAF become weeaboo heaven?!
Persona 4 Golden is a legit 5/10, dungeon design is astrocious and the whole edgy anime character shtick is embarrassing. Okay, the UI is hard - but the rest? Y'all get blinded by your affection for 2D anime characters that are as flat as their character portraits. And now you want another one of those basura Social RPGs (can't believe I'm even typing this)?
Pass. Try again. Or better yet: don't.
FFXV originates from the brilliant mind of jeux-auteur Tetsuya Nomura and will not only sell boatloads of PS4s in Japan but start the age of cinematic RPGs paired with both hyperrealismé and masterful game design. Yes, the last demo was lowkey rough around the edges but that's because it's a game that demands everything from the consoles. I prefer avantgarde open-world action-RPG gameplay to linear, turn-based corridor moé bullshit at any time of the day.
Shame on all of you tbh
poty right here y'all fuCK

And as others have said, FFXV will have a WW release, whereas P5 probably won't hit the US until the fall/winter 2016, so this question only really matters in Japan.
Mupod, you played a pigtailed big girl in FF14 that wore bears all over herself
I don't think you get to call other people weirdos

Persona 5.
It's not even close to something approaching a contest.

I would choose Final Fantasy XV. It's not even a competition.
Exactly.
And I'm a hardcore Persona fan.

Agreed
It really don't matter how much the FF brand may be damaged, FF is still powerful enough to crush any other jRPG, regardless of quality or anything at all

Despite my once monumental hype for FFXV, I'd go with Persona 5.
I wouldn't be surprised in XV were moved to the first quarter of 2017 at this point. 2016 is a big and crowded year as it is, and Square wouldn't want to risk another financial disappointment after Rise of the Tomb Raider.

I can't imagine it being more of a disaster than XIII.

I think you're being too optimistic.

Agreed, It's absurd to think that Persona is gonna outsell FFXV, even with how bad the FF brand has been since the PS3.
I'm sure P5 will be the best selling Persona game to date especially since it's a cross gen game. It's gonna be amazing for sure, but Persona as a franchise doesn't have the legacy or pull that Final Fantasy does.
Personally I hope they have some release separation I want them both to shine.

SE was badly mismanaged last gen and frustrated alot of people. All that will go away though if thier upcoming lineup is as good as it looks.
Not with the way Atlus USA and Atlus Japan are communicating with each other currently.
I doubt Atlus USA has any idea when this game will come out Japan or when they'll actually be done with localization.
Probably one of the worst posts i've seen in a while.
Also said by someone who doesn't even know what Persona is.
Persona's appeal has nothing to do with its graphics potential and seeing how many nose hairs you can see zoomed in to the character models, and everything to do with its style and what it does best.
That wasn't the only thing they asked apparently

LOL so weird. Hype for Persona 5 has to be pretty high for SE to be asking this stuff.

Persona, and I'm extremely likely to play that endlessly before I'd want to pick up another JRPG. My PS4 may well be found by aliens in a thousand years with the Persona disc still in it. That said, if XV gets ridiculously good reviews and has incredible impressions I'll probably cave and get that as well near release. Otherwise I'll wait for a $40 holiday sale.
For maximum hype, XV needs to beat the standard fall rush of annual titles. Even a week or two to itself would do wonders, which probably means the end of September. They're trying to see that, if Persona happened to be closer to their window, what would it do for hype, pre-orders, mindshare, etc., and if so, what's the latest they could stand to release without running into different problems.
OH MY GOD JUST GIVE ME PERSONA ALREADY! And Square, where's our damn FFXII HD? I'd day 1 that regardless of Persona!
It's not that. They understand that people who are going to pounce on Persona are much the same people who would be day 1 purchasers of FFXV. If they were to release, say, immediately after Persona by a few weeks it'd hurt their pre-order numbers a bit. Even if they launched before, Persona fans are quite the dedicated bunch who might hold off on paying full price for a game they wouldn't spend as much time with. This is exactly what they're trying to ask players about. They want to make a Venn diagram of the consumer base.
