And all localization worries everyone's ever had just compound in on each other with one single boss.
Same reason there's one for every remotely similar fanbase. People need that thing they like to be better than that thing other people like.
If I have to choose over P5 and FFXV, I'll take Persona but I definitely want to get FFXV eventually too.

So, it's just me that got this feline..
I wouldn't want to choose a side between those two.
Then again.

The cat puns on your podcast came pretty late. But then again.
Totally worth it. (ಠ‿ಠ

so is persona just a big thing here on the gaf or does its presence here reflect its potential popularity
The trailer has nearly 2mil views, don't think GAF alone did that.

Most of the SMT games take place in Tokyo. Persona was where they decided to go with their own locations but it looks like they're coming back to Tokyo for P5.

hopefully it will sell big
Right, I completely forgot about Devil Survivor and the Raidou games.
SMT stands as one of the great RPG franchises, but is also seen as one of the most consistent franchises through the present. Atlus love is pretty strong.
Persona always had a following which grew a good deal with 3. That's when I first heard about it. From reading an article about a couple selling their blood to afford it, then passing out after watching the games intro. lol.
Persona 4 I think is what made the series good enough to start bragging about. Which really expanded the following. Pretty much anywhere you go on the web you'll find fans of the series.

Hell, Nocturne kinda says Tokyo is the nexus of reality where obsolete universes come to die and new ones are being created in an endless cycle. I'd say they like Tokyo a lot.

GAF loves persona. It definitely has a strong fanbase, but it's never a good idea to base a games potential outreach by GAF excitement, or else Smash would be outselling GTA and CoD, while Persona and Bloodborne would dominate everything else
"Shibuya"
Haha, well I guess that's true. I wouldn't mind it at all if it were straight up just named after the real locations.
Edit: Ah, then it is just Shibuya. Cool.
I only see "uya" the dream is still alive. Long live Fibuya.
Bottom right corner says "Shibuya" in japanese

wikipedia lists it as a "social simulator".
also, would anyone happen to know the possible release window for this game?
Yeah, 2015. Probably after June 25th.
The Artisan

so summer, this year. not bad. also, has this series ever featured multiplayer of sorts?
Nope.
Edit:
Well, actually, there was Persona 4 golden's async multiplayer functions(basically leaving a trail of what you did each day for other people to compare to and giving each other very slight healing).
That's not what I said. "After June 25th." It could release at the tail end of December 2015 in Japan, for all we know.

So what does the text in the UI around the date and the weather icon say? Is it just the month and time of day, a la "Afternoon" or "Evening"?

Devil Survivor takes place in Tokyo too and it's not mainline "SMT", just "Megami Ibunroku" like Persona.
Great podcast Inorigo! Look forward to the next one.

Besides P4G having some online components (haven't played so don't really know), no.

Yeah, it's just Morning/Evening etc.
I could swear that one of the Persona 3 songs say "have a party with a burned lasagna".

So we don't know what the time gimmick will be yet, like the moon phases in Persona 3 and the weather in P4?
Yes, YouTube user YongYeaadded English translations to the trailer in case you're curious about something else.
Edit: beaten

Actually, if you extend your question to SMT as a whole, which Persona is a part of, there has been some MMO called Shin Megami Tensei: Imagine. Though I honestly have no idea whatsoever this game might be and only the Japanese servers are still up.
Edit: Amazing.
Oh yeah I completely forgot this game existed.
...What? The game comes out in 2015 both in Japan and in North America.

Awesome. Thanks, all!
So, it does look like clothing is separate from armor/protector. I guess that means costumes might be in the game, or I hope.
This game has been so long in the making that I wouldn't be surprised if the localization misses the 2015 deadline, unfortunately. Still, let's hope for end of 2015.

that sounds interesting. but it was a vita game, which means it wasn't very successful was it?
as it is, I think it's the highest rated persona game there is.
well, that would suck. that would mean we don't get it till 2016. and if not, q4 i'll be busy with Uc4.
ah, but that's not exactly a part of the persona series, so if we were to expect multiplayer, it probably wouldn't be like that would it?
