Atlus's Persona event was the best hype-train I road from the start to the sweet end.

Interesting question: with the potential of hype train niconico events like this Persona event is there still any point in E3? You can create more hype and interest for far less money.

Not sure you can compare share numbers of people that follow E3 and events like this. E3 (or TGS) still can have much more impact, no? Like getting new people interested in a game.

Although Persona event was quite entertaining, I must admit, and meltdowns, those glorious meltdowns. (><)

Cus' everyone else mostly sucks at executing them.

See Nintendo Direct events. 1 in 5 is actually worth watching.
 
I missed it and only saw that Persona 5 was announced, so I didn't understand the tales of intense rage. Honestly the 3DS game looks like a lot of fun.

Well the were lots of cute trolling there, Atlus seems really good at toying with fans. One probably had to see all event to understand share amount of desperation at some point. ;)
 
I'm glad I skipped it because that 'reveal' was something we already knew. Hardly anything to get excited about.

3DS spinoff looks cool though I guess.

The excitement comes from it being officially acknowledged, thus we can finally expect a (hopefully) steady flow of information about it.
 
Meh, it was a train wreck and at the end of it we stood up.

That's it. In my opinion anyway.

All this really did for me was think that now the bar is uber low for Persona going forward, and the franchise quality is at major risk.

Still excited for Persona 5 of course. But I'm worried about the future of Persona in general now. I wasn't before.
 
The letter and the fact Teddie continued to talk after announcing the three spinoffs made me realize it was to be revealed something more.

Then Teddie begins to go crazy,falls in a 555555 red countdown and i was relieved, Atlus is SQUAREENIX insane yet :-)

Still i expected a little more than that teaser
 
Most of us got off a stop or two early loool.

I haven't played it but from what I understand the fighting game is actually good? They can probably deliver with these spino-offs.
 
I had a lot of fun watching the livestream. When the old lady appeared saying "listen to the cheering of the crowds below" and then showing the flyer with all the "Confidential" written on it I was smirking. Meanwhile in the thread someone had posted the first image of Persona Q on 3DS. Eventually its trailer was shown and my heart sank a little. "After all that hype this is all they got?" Then Ryouga tweeted about P4D and I realized they'd be showing multiple games during the event.

The best part was when she opened the flyer after umming and aahing for a minute - there was just the word 'Secret' in it!

That was my main concern too. It's only a year till release and we get just teaser?!

It is, I've played it. (the original obviously)

But I fear that they're just going to shove Persona onto whatever now. I guess I should have seen it coming when Arena was made, but meh.
 
Probably the hardest I've laughed at a stream in a loooooong time. So entertaining.

The fact that we got 4 great looking games out of it didn't hurt too. I think I'm probably the only one in the thread not angry at all of the spinoffs.
