I think there's some benefit to it. It's more than just reducing her damage. Megido Fire was such a staple of her Orgia mode, and by removing double Megio fire you make other options seems realistic and lower the barrier for entry.

I don't even play him, but yes please.
Aigis only seemed like a protector. Same with Elizabeth. On the other hand, they made it obvious with Yukari.

Persona always pushes the Lovers arcana on you. Its how they choose to represent it.

I'll agree that both Aigis and Elizabeth seemed more like a worried companion or guardian at first. It becomes more than obvious how they feel as their events progress, though. Though all in all, I can't believe anyone thinks that Yukari isn't the closest to being the canon love interest if she isn't already. It was thrown in your face so often I can't imagine someone missing that.

Umm, why? Game has been out for over a year and it'll be two years after release before this version hits consoles.
Its a sequel anyway.
Kanji's pretty buff already. The guy probably works out.
Won't this update be in arcades a lot sooner than 2 years from now? That's what I'm ticked off about.
It came out in arcades almost a year and a half ago. By the time it releases it'll have been about two years.
What? P4A was first revealed in August 2011 and released on consoles (in the US) a year later. And that was when they had to build a brand-new game whereas they're building onto one here. So why do we think this will take any longer than a year to hit consoles?

Because I doubt ASW is releasing the Arcade version before Q4 this year.
It's not 2 years from now, what I'm saying is by the time this comes to consoles it'll be almost 2 years before the first game came out.
Why?
Not really in Persona 4. Encouragement towards a romantic arc with Rise wasn't really any more blatant than it was for the other girls in your party.

Rise was incredibly demanding in comparison to the other females. Don't ignore that.
Eh, that's more of an indictment on Rise's personality than any push towards the Lovers line.
Someone compiled a change list. I added it to the OP.

It might be another name for the modifications they made to normal rolls. I think they're supposed to be fully projectile invulnerable or something.
Haha, they forgot about poor Yukiko. Some changes here:

5c dash cancelable now? ... Well this helps me a lot.
Noooooo, those Yu nerfs. I mean, I knew they were coming, but... ;_;
Oh well, sticking with him till the end.
Perhaps it might be similar to KoF's Guard Cancel Roll?

Rise is also the one that they chose to pair the MC with in the ski trip animated cutscene.
When I was like, 6, sure. I have no love for it whatsoever now though. It's not something that left a lasting impression on me, unlike, say, Disney films.
If by 'pair with' you mean 'stand with', then yes. There's nothing remotely romantic about it.

Persona 4 Arena: Climax.
I can't get over how perfect Junpei's design is, right down to the SAFE! animation when he calls out Trismegistus.
Do we know this for sure? Where has it been confirmed?

All these new moves and nerfs changes...it will be like learning a new game again. Not that I mind though.

Noooo coup nerfs 
Sucks that Mitsuru can't 5AA 5B on airborne opponents either. IIRC LordKnight mentioned you can't use D Bufula for corner oki anymore, so that's another nerf...

"Climax" is in the top left corner of a bunch of the screenshots.
I knew they were going to do it, but they removed Naoto's SMP loop.
Man, what can she do now?
Specifically P1-Climax.
The first game wasn't called Persona 4 Grand Prix.
I don't think Climax will be the name.

Tickle enemies with bullets!
saving that for the p4 racing kart game
I posted in the community thread, but Mui (JP competitive player) tweeted about the game referring to it as "P4C". Pretty sure Climax is the name.
That definitely seems to be the case. Because they ended up giving her traps more recovery time (not like people could just hit/izanagi car their way through the traps anyway), gave her reloading more recovery time (while not slow, it wasn't all that fast even in vanilla P4A), and I guess threw her a bone by making Double Fangs an airborne attack too. Too bad that doesn't really fix her poor health and non-SMP shit damage even with crazy IAD combos.
Fuck it, if I can get back into the game, I'm going Yukari.
Good.
Yes.

Flux, buddy, do you not want me to have a chance against anyone?
Btw anyone who thinks this game is going to stay arcade only is silly
