Persona 4 The Golden and Persona 4 The Ultimate in Mayonaka Screenshots

I thought there was more news about Golden. Nice to see that music video popping out of nowhere. I was so tired when I watched it the first time that i shrugged it off and went to bed :P
 
Yes, I just don't find much of the shots to be impressive. They're (mostly) an improvement from the original, sure, but they're not all that impressive (to be expected given the average atlus game budget). I more interested in the new bike mechanics.

I think it will look fantastic, its just a cleaned up version of the original. What did you expect? It's stylized. Larger polycounts isn't going to make a big difference here.
 
So there will be a mode harder than Expert? Hopefully it's as hair-pulling as Maniac in P3P.


Well, in Persona 4 Golden it's called Risky. Basically it goes like:

- Safety (Easy mode with the ability to retry a battle once if you die....new to P4G)
- Easy
- Normal
- Hard
- Risky (Unsure of details, this game's "Damn I'm Good" mode...new to P4G)

In Risky mode, all enemies constantly use Mahamaon and Mamudoon, and if that doesn't work, a Mind Charged Megidoloan.

Well that's the source to a gif of a girl in a swimsuit bottom painfully bleeding and exploding from the eyes. Did not know why I expected it to be any less weird.

(Pretty good music video!)
 
Hmmm they could have at least updated the character models for Vita and used AA. (hmm maybe it won't look so bad on a small screen)

Look forward to the extra content.
 
No, but seriously, someone tell me why P3P's hardest difficulty is so hardcore.

I might actually get it now.

Maniac
- Highly Advanced; Nothing Carried Over From Previous Games (character level and social stats start at 1, the Persona Compendium will only have records of recently-gained Personas, and the doors for Vision Quest and Monad will not be present early in the game)
- Less EXP
- Very hard to get first strike / Reaper always gets Enemy Advantage / Enemies have a higher chance of getting Enemy Advantage when you don't take them by surprise
- Should ALWAYS be in Great condition while grinding or before you know it, you're dead
- Pay extra money for Compendium
- Enemies deal 2 times more damage than normal (sounds like a little right? Lol yeah, I thought so too. )
- Certain weapon fusions cannot be performed

On Vanilla P3, my party was at level 75 ~ took me an hour and a half to beat Nyx (on Normal)
On P3Fes, my party was at level 80 ~ took me two hours to beat Nyx (on Normal)
On P3P, my party was at level 75 ~ took me two hours to lose against Nyx (on Normal lol)
On P3Fes, MC Only, level 99/w level 99 Helel + maxed stats + HGL ~ took me 35 mins to beat Nyx (on Hard)
..
On P3P Maniac, my party was at level 75-79 ~ took me nearly 3 hours to beat Nyx.

What I'm trying to say is: No matter how you play, Nyx will always be the greatest and most tedious boss ever. Just in P3P she will slap your shit extra hard if you come unprepared. The secret bosses? Yeah, let's not even go there.

Yeah this is what confuses me - I imagine that it will look better on the screen but I can't help but worry about the chunkiness. Jaggies really bother me.

But hey, they still have time, maybe there will be a filter or something.

Awesome.


(In Raidou devil mode, your damage output is halved; theirs is tripled, and everything costs 8 times as much.)
 
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

I can only hope that some East Coast arcade picks it up as well or I'll have to wait for summer to get my hands on P4U. >_<

I know that feel all too well, most L.A. arcades stay up to date with everything and I can't even find a SF2 machine around here. Looks like I'm gonna be waiting til the Summer.

I was just talking about your comment about the 'grain'. It's in the original, so I was confused as to why you would mention that if you had played it before is all.

Cool, thanks. The style kind of reminds me of works by Masaaki Yuasa in a way.
 
Saw that arcade intro thingy earlier today.

Pure hype!

Can't wait for this game to be released in arcades so we can get some more videos and start playing some theory fighter ;D
 
The thought only occurred to me just now, but since P4 Golden is adding the new character Marie, who I understand to be playable, shouldn't she be included in this game?

Or is Mayonaka Arcade going to be released before Golden comes out, and she could potentially be added before the Arcade game gets released for other platforms or something?

There's no hard date for Golden, but I think it's going to go P4U Arcade (March), then P4 Golden (Spring, probably April or May), then P4U Console (Summer).

I hadn't seen anything about Marie being playable. If anyone gets added to P4U console, it'll probably be more P3 characters.

I wonder about this - is P4U canon or something? Does it take place between 4 and 5 maybe?

Also Marie has a really good fake theme song... thing?

YOU ARE HEREBY HIRED AS THE OT'S IMAGE DESIGNER!

FUND DAT SHIT

Hell yes Chavelo, I'd be up for that!
