[Matsukaze]

Never worked this hard on a thread before - I hope you all enjoy it, and enjoy the game!

Excellent thread is excellent, but if I may make a suggestion for an addition to the opening post?

 

[B00TE]

Awww shit. Can't wait to play it again and not need a translator to give me the short version of what's going on, heh. Hoping it shows up Monday.

 

[LowParry]

My thief is ready

 

[LotusHD]

Seeing this OT just really awakened the hype within me. Can't wait to play my first Persona game!

 

[Mupod]

going to drown myself in Nier all weekend. Took some days off next week. I might even play Persona 5 instead of just looking at the waifu shitposting OT.

 

[NESpowerhouse]

Yes. Yes I have.

 

[Femto.]

You won't need a guide to get the best ending. It's not nearly the mystery it's made out to be in P4

Thank goodness.

 

[PancakeBurglar]

So jealous of the gaffers who already managed to get copies of the game.

 

[poutmeter]

Trying my best to finish Horizon before the game comes out; it's gonna be all about P5 once it's here!

Decided to cancel my "Take Your Heart" edition once I realized I liked the box more than anything in it. Got the steelbook edition, at least!

 

[BRSxIgnition]

Wish I could, even as an easter egg (the NieR: Automata OT had a few) - but you'll have to message cj_iwakura about that, he's the poster.

Regardless, thank you for the praise!

lol this reads like a SAO:HF original translation.

Spoiler

I know it isn't that bad

 

[TheMrPliskin]

Any spoiler free Persona 5 guides out there?

I just want the to get the true end without guessing my way there.

You shouldn't need a guide, it's very easy to get.

 

[ShadyK54]

Great title!

Still waiting here patiently for my Amazon order status to change. Hoping it's just an end of the day thing & nothing crazy happens to my TYH Edition. 😬

 

[GwyndolinCinder]

Been avoiding all the threads lately, dont want spoilers this close to release.....
But i know BRSxIgnition worked really hard to get this looking amazing and spoiler free, so had a very quick scroll through it.

Looks amazing as expected, great job!
Dipping back out for now, should hopefully be here starting tomorrow!

 

[Thud]

Rupan rupan rupan

 

[renegade_dewitt]

Can't believe Persona 5 is inbound to the West.

 

[Goldboy]

Seeing this OT just really awakened the hype within me.

Same here. I was already hyped, but seeing the OT go up just got me so excited.

 

[Phrozenflame500]

Anyone have a rundown on the differences between PS3 and PS4 versions? Is it just the resolution? I was going to grab the PS3 version and wasn't sure if I was missing out.

 

[Ydelnae]

I should get my copy this Tuesday. I can't wait, I really think this could become one of my favorite games ever.

 

[Swiggins]

IT BEGINS!!!

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

Nice OT! I'm 4 hours into the game atm and it's even better then I hoped it would be.

 

[adamsapple]

Unsuccessful in getting an early copy Had to settle in for pre ordering steel book for day 1.

Great OT.

It's been a long 3+ years wait.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Also, 20gb? That is really small for a PS4 game, no?

 

[Squire]

Nearly 30 hours in. Worth the hype.

Never worked this hard on a thread before - I hope you all enjoy it, and enjoy the game!

Great work, dude! You too, CJ!

I heard this game was about chairs or something???

It does indeed feature many chairs!

 

[disappeared]

This looks really good. Haven't played Persona since P2 on ps1. I missed out on the big resurgence with P3 and P4.

 

[Rurunaki]

By the time the doujins are done, it'll be Lupin the Filth.

I already feel filthy for knowinf the reference.

 

[BRSxIgnition]

Nice OT! I'm 4 hours into the game atm and it's even better then I hoped it would be.

Glad to hear it - and thank you very much.

Great work, dude! You too, CJ!

Thanks, and CJ came up with some really great ideas for it too.

Thank you very very much - I got dinged a little bit, but nothing that'll ruin the game for me apparently.

Really hope everyone enjoys it!

Decided to cancel my "Take Your Heart" edition once I realized I liked the box more than anything in it. Got the steelbook edition, at least!

I've been trying (and failing) to beat Horizon, Nioh, ME:A and AoT in Destiny before this comes out...not enough hours in the day.

And of course, Yooka Laylee comes out a week later...

Resolution and load times are slightly better on PS4 but that's about it from what I've heard.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

No gameplay content differences, only difference is that the PS3 version has some slightly longer load times and runs at a lower resolution.

 

[Guess Who]

Anyone have a rundown on the differences between PS3 and PS4 versions? Is it just the resolution? I was going to grab the PS3 version and wasn't sure if I was missing out.

720p vs 1080p, slower load times, that's about it. Totally fine version of the game.

 

[kennyamr]

Finally here.

One of the best series in the industry.

It's been a long time coming.

2017 hype!

 

[Pandora012]

Also, 20gb? That is really small for a PS4 game, no?

It's a ps3 port so that could be the reason.

 

[The Artisan]

the OT is up now huh...I guess now's a good time as ever to ask my age old question:

any NYC gaffers out there who bought the standard cover edition and wants to trade for the steelbook?

will people get mad if I start spamming this on every page...gettin kinda desperate here

 

[Goldboy]

Never worked this hard on a thread before - I hope you all enjoy it, and enjoy the game!

You did a fantastic job, the OT looks great!

 

[ThatStupidLion]

was wondering when this was going up - need a place to write my praise other than the early impression and review thread

this game is legit

will people get mad if I start spamming this on every page...gettin kinda desperate here

why do you want standard over steelbook?

 

[Deleted member 57681]

Looking forward to fucking eat and breathe and live Persona again for the next weeks, months, nay, years to come. In my Catherine boxers.
Hope my girlfriend is down with that.

 

[kamikazekoala]

Got the CE, but no time to play for now

Maybe, just maybe...

 

[adamsapple]

Also, 20gb? That is really small for a PS4 game, no?

It's a PS3 game first. Also,textures don't take that much space. The game probably doesn't have that many anime sequences, most of the events are like in-engine.

 

[Son Of Sparda]

So I gotta ask, those "confidants" in OP aren't all the S-links right?

 

[StrikeFirst117]

Gah got my copy coming on Monday and I'm so goddamn excited.

 

[ASilentProtagonist]

Looking forward to seeing reactions to the main story in this game. When shit goes down in Persona 5, it goes fucking down!!!

Main story is fantastic, voice acting has been top notch, in game cutscenes are incredible, villains are excellent, and the story is super dark.

 

[Zolo]

So I gotta ask, those "confidants" in OP aren't all the S-links right?

Them, the twins, and your party members.

 

[Yappadappadu]

Maybe add a link to voice cast lists for both dubs?
btw. does the english dub for this newest Persona game still have the weird habit of adding the japanese honorifics?

 

[Tyrant Rave]

A place in Miami claims they'll 'get it soon' and I'm 'on a list', whatever that means. If they get it, I'll let you know.

Word. Was hoping there would be somewhere in Coral Springs lol figures

 

[BRSxIgnition]

So I gotta ask, those "confidants" in OP aren't all the S-links right?

They're all the 'S-links' listed on the official site. The rest are in the main cast section.

 

[poutmeter]

I've been trying (and failing) to beat Horizon, Nioh, ME:A and AoT in Destiny before this comes out...not enough hours in the day.

And of course, Yooka Laylee comes out a week later...

I delayed getting Nier because I knew I wouldn't give it the attention it deserves once P5 is out... that and the store only had Horizon in stock. Play you in a few months N:A!

 

[TheMrPliskin]

So I gotta ask, those "confidants" in OP aren't all the S-links right?

Those and all the above.

 

[Goldboy]

So I gotta ask, those "confidants" in OP aren't all the S-links right?

Yeah, it seemed like a rather small list compared to what I was expecting, but I think I'm just overestimating how many S-Links were in Persona 4.

 

[Swiggins]

People who have played the game early...who is, in your opinion, the most interesting S-Link? Do some of the S-Links come with additional benefits like P4?
