Thanks, appreciated. Building my 3DS/DS backlog at the moment.
Its a damn shame SMT gets regulated to 3DS while Persona, the fucking spin off, gets this big huge hype announcement on a console.
I mean, I know why, people like their japanese high-school dating simulators, but c'moooooon.
They couldn't do that though. They have a game ready to go from the EO team that is releasing about 6 months from now and they couldn't just announce that with no P5, the fan base would have gone berserk.
Maybe, but if that been quietly announced in Famitsu or something I doubt the fanbase would have gone too berserk.
Anyone actually hyped for P4D?

Actually, I think if they had announced Q or the Dance game without pairing them with the P5 announcement, people would have lost their shit even worse. At least this way, people only had to panic about it for a few minutes.
People, don't forget how few console JRPGs we get these days. Don't forget how many Japanese devs have gone mobile-only. Don't forget what happened to Breath of Fire, and where Dragon Quest seems to be going. To get not one, but four announcements for a series, all of them on traditional consoles/handhelds with nary a mobile game in sight...this doesn't happen anymore.
There were an abundance of extremely shameful comments during the first few announcements. (I mean in general, I'm not singling out any specific place.) It was funny at first, but then it just got disturbing.
Everyone's happy now, but it reminded me about a side of gaming that I really do not care for.
I thought it was pretty embarrassing for the majority of Atlus fans
Insulting the company over and over again and then jump back on their lap in the end draws a dark, dark picture of them
Since when? The only thing worthwhile out of Nintendo is their handhelds. It's been like that for a decade now. I'm like 95% joke character, don't take my jokes about loltendo so seriously. Even when I'm serious, I may not be serious.I thought you disliked Nintendo in general? It's good that you have seen the light. Best system for games out there since the DS.
I woke up. Loaded up gaf. Saw Persona 5. Went back to bed.
I did the same thing.
Yeah, but that's just business as usual.And now I thing about it, I found more shamefull the "console warrior" reactions Post stream.
I thought "Atlus still got it." Which leads me to my next point:
THEY. STILL. GOT. IT.
In an era of double standard, shrinking domestic sales, hot potato console situation, HD screwups, and messed up priorities, this and few other JRPG series managed to survive at all in a form worth giving a shit about. That is beyond relief.
I called it, i wondered if gaf would go down, and it ACTUALLY did
Yeah it was a fun ride, you hsould have seen the #personaGAF chat
Also slightly off topic OP but is your avatar... intentional?
Haha yes, he was making fun of everyone who had put luigi hat's on their avatars around the time dark moon was coming out.
I can't believe how happy you are about a barren little teaser for something that was surely going to come around sooner or later anyways. Good for you, though.
And yet, some people are still trying to argue they "sold out" with some of these announcements. These games aren't sacred cows.
As someone who hasn't played any Persona game, y'all be crazy.
haha at the comments for persona 3DS on here, that first page was everyone mad as hell.
and then with the dance game on vita, everyone was like "the fuck"
then the bomb came with dat Persona 5, would have been a huge meltdown if it were on wii u, i wanted to see that just for the meltdowns
i need to get a ps3 again by next year

the greatest reveal event in jrpg history.

It was an absolutely crazy hype train. You all should have seen the PersonaGAF chatroom. It was madness in there.
Still, I would prefer if Atlus were to tone down the next trolling event. My heart wouldn't be able to take another one of this magnitude again.
ITS HAPPENI(NG!
IT'S REALLY HAPPENING THIS TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!
PLEASE DON'T BE WHAT I THINK IT IS.
AH FUCK THIS SUCKS. They fucked up the art for 3DS
Fuck you Atlus!
I want to kill myself.
Persona 5 is never coming...
This game looks like such shit. Please don't do this to me Atlus... There has to be more!
When will the damn spin offs stop?!
This has made me really fucking hate Teddie.
I love you Atlus. I'm so sorry for what I have said. Please take me back. I can't live without you baby.
Oh my God, Persona 5 isn't coming!
