Because I like romance? And I'm hardly the only one. Atlus has had a habit of putting it into a lot of their games, not just Persona.
I love Persona but there is not actual romance because your character silence and there is not much chemistry between and MC and romantic partners, especially compare to something like Tifa and Cloud or Yuna and Tidus.

I disagree. A large part of the game is about forging bonds. Romance is one form of a bond, one of the most significant ones at that.
In this game the bond is mostly their support for election to take the throne, that one of the big reason why in this you are traveling between cities to increase your popularly and get support, basically similar to our election campaign.

In fact in this world they think our world is paradise, I wouldn't be surprised they took out election system applied to their own.

Looking forward to this game but I must say that the art style they chose is really difficult to be transposed effectively with the huge technical limitations their engine has.
The game looks like a brown mess a lot of times. For now I'll wait to preorder.

Damn, this new Metaphor showcase is so early in the morning for me so I won't be able to watch it live. Gonna watch the recording later I guess.
I might not watch it because in all honesty I don't need to see anything more from it, I'm already sold.


Who am I kidding I don't have that type of will power..:messenger_grinning_sweat:
 
For any PC peeps interested in getting the CE, it's up now for pre-order on Amazon US. You'll get a steam key of the game and all the physical goodies that are already included in the PS5/XSX collector's edition.

Day 1 still as was the case when the game was announced.

The new media for Metaphor is making me wanna start up Persona 3 Reload tonight. :messenger_tongue:
 
I'm glad I don't have to worry about which underage girl I need to take to the bone zone in this game.
 
Don't get me wrong, Im in for this day 1 and have seen enough.

But a part of me would have rather seen them take on an "adult" or even college age Persona 6.

BUUUTTTT, this may be something I don't even know I really want more than that.

I think the creative minds behind Persona just have no idea how normal adults talk and interact with each other.
 
The game looks pretty cool. I can get it discounted on PC.

Does anyone know if the PS5 or PC version uses the DualSense features?
 
I changed my order to PS5, but I dont think I should open it once it arrives and just buy it for my PC. But would love the experience on the PS5. But PC it is for me ive got 12700k/4070 ti and dont own a ps5, might as well take advantage of it. PS5 collectors edition is sold out on gamestop.

I hope the resolution is high enough on console or else this will look kinda rough despite the art style
 
I really need them to hurry up lol

I bought this cause the main character dresses like a diva...

I went ahead an ordered the Collector's edition for the PC version. Not certain why it is not selling as well. You get all the stuff.

I guess it is because you can't re-sell the game.
 
The collector's edition seems worth it because it has some Atlus Anniv. stuff.

It will be a collector's item in the future.
 
It sounds like Atlus is good about supporting the DualSense on PC. I will have to see what Persona 3 Reload does with it.
 

Just ordered for £42 which is a silly price for a new game. I guess pre-orders are low as it's a new IP.

But they will come.
