I can't take it. That main character. HE'S SO PRETTY! All I can picture is him being wall banged by a cool upperclassman boy or secretly trying on dresses in his bedroom or something similar.

I'm never going to survive the further reveals of this game.

 

[cj_iwakura]

The animation reminds me of Devil Survivor 2's.

Possible female designs?

 

[B.K.]

Meh. Not interested.

 

[Jeels]

I usually dont like characters with glasses but this design is growing on me.

 

[NotDreamcast]

Damn, check out those glasses. Dude looks intellectual.

It's also getting hard to resist moving on up to current gen now.

 

[Jachaos]

Sounds like I can pack my PS3 away then. Not a single thing I want for it now. WOO

Get double Platinum trophies for Persona 5 of course.

Spoiler

Actually it's Persona 4 Arena Ultimax and PS+ games for me, PS4/Wii U/3DS/Vita will be getting most of my time

 

[Hours Left]

The animation reminds me of Devil Survivor 2's.

Possible female designs?

Maybe, they seem pretty plain.

 

[Estellise]

I could go for a strict megane type for a protag. He's probably got a real intellectual side. Oh yes please and thank you, Atlus.

they don't look unique enough to be part of his crew.

I hope the mascot is a pet raven btw.


Quoth the Raven

[Immaculate]

still buying on PS3. If it was a PS4 exclusive in the first place a PS4 would be bought but since its not theres no reason for it

 

[Aquamarine]

Damn, check out those glasses. Dude looks intellectual.

I said that if Persona 5 got a PS4 port, I'll buy a PS4.

Even if it's only for one game, Persona 5 is enough to get me to upgrade.


It's funny how that works.

 

[ubiblu]

Going to emancipate myself to this news later tonight. P4G is seriously one of the greatest games of all-time.

 

[Persona7]

Put me down for one copy on each platform.

 

[Zekra Dezivad]

COME AT ME!

 

[markhimself46]

So. Damn. Excited.

This was the main reason I still have my PS3 hooked up.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Sucks that the game got delayed but a ps4 version now exists! I wonder what kind of differences does ps4 version have? Outside of resolution and frame gate

 

[Akainu]

People serious about getting rid of their ps3 for this. I doubt neither is going to be pushing shit.

 

[Afrocious]

Wow, I gotta say it seems the PS3 is on some life support.

 

[Trigonometrize.]

What is with the "game got delayed" stuff? IIRC this was never announced for anything but 2015.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Maybe, they seem pretty plain.

That's what they want you to think.

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

I loved Yu, but let's be honest he looked like a hipster.

This guy looks like the sexy intellectual type. He'll bring the waifus over to study with in his dorm room

STUDY BIOLOGY.


AMIRITE.

loool

 

[sappyday]

fuck yes

 

[HomesIice]

MC reminds me of the MC in Devil Survivor 2 minus the glasses

Either way, might have to invest in a PS3/PS4 ((((or just wait for P5G))))

 

[Phamit]

The animation reminds me of Devil Survivor 2's.

seems like the typical Persona random girl design

 

[Aquamarine]

What is with the "game got delayed" stuff? IIRC this was never announced for anything but 2015.

It was explicitly announced for Winter 2014 in Japan originally.

Now we have notice that the game received a "delay" and it's now coming out sometime in 2015.

 

[ZeroX03]

yeah, that's true. if it's just a weird coincidence or stylistic choice i'd be surprised, though - maybe we're investigating something from the past and there's flashbacks or something.

It's very like a conscious stylistic choice. General theme of the game seems to be a little more serious and less bombastic than P3/P4. The chairs & chains, private/prep school look of the protagonist. Might not be literally 70s flashbacks but rather design choices to invoke the era and a feeling of oppression. The series is very good at using all elements of the games (text, logos, HUD, etc) to contribute to the overall feel and themes of the games.

 

[Sandfox]

Maybe, they seem pretty plain.

The MC is plain himself.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

It's not due to best graphics possible. It's due to many keeping their PS3s specifically because of this game. Now there's no point (Assuming logically that it comes to ps4 as well in west)

 

[kuppy]

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Wow, I gotta say it seems the PS3 is on some life support.

Guess my ps3 will be saved just cause of my mgs collection and KH

 

[hupla]

I like how the protag is wearing all black and white except for the RED buttons

 

[bwakh]

So one of the shackles is now broken

 

[Cess007]

Totally excited! Can't wait to play this next year! Now i wanna see the rest of the cast (and hear some new Meguro tracks)!

Namco, now make Zestiria for PS4 and after this december i can pack-up my PS3 forever!

 

[Hours Left]

The MC is plain himself.

He's got his trademarks though. The glasses, the logo on his sweater, his blazer.

Those just look like random girls.

 

[Nyoro SF]

I note that the P5 protagonist on top of looking decidedly normal, also appears older than your average high school student. It is likely he is a senior at the very least.

 

[Flarin]

What is with the "game got delayed" stuff? IIRC this was never announced for anything but 2015.

 

[-PXG-]

Is anyone really shocked? I figured it would get a port later on, just like P4 did from PS2 to Vita. But a simultaneous release? That's the surprise I suppose.

i can see that. either way i dig it.

 

[HUELEN10]

God, I hate the P5 logo.

Great news for those without a PS3 though.

Where is the nearest library? I have tests to study for

 

[santeesioux]

I may be full of crap, but isn't Persona bigger in the West? If so, it makes sense to port it over to the most popular console there.

 

[BlazingDarkness]

So one of the shackles is now broken

Cast of five characters?

 

[PaulExcellent]

oh shit
this is a real thing
this is a thing that's coming out
this is a thing that could be coming out soon

JjwincialwmOcnirbfiauwychrnfiwkd
FUUIUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YES

 

[Sai-kun]

Dude looks cute, but so fucking generic haha. Almost funny how stale he looks.

 

[Myggen]

Fucking awesome!

 

[benzy]

Main character looks badass simply because he's rockin that Man from Nowhere hair.

 

[Bishop89]

such a tease.

Showing ps3 first and then BAM ps4 logo showing up next to it.

Pants were shat

 

[daveo42]

I laughed.

 

[Perfect Cha0s]

Second year judging by the emblem on his neck and the "2" button.

its Atlus's biggest franchise in general but yes Persona (most notably P3 and P4) are the most popular SMT related games in the West
