Sorry if this has been asked already, but how big of a download is the JP dub?
Edit: Nvm, just saw the tweet. For fucks sake Atlus, put these shits into pre-load. That's why we have a pre-load to begin with you idiots, so the game would be completely ready and good to go when it finally unlocks. Ugh!

Shin Megami Tensei games tend to hold their value well, and in the PS2 days even became rare and hard to obtain. Nocturne and Digital Devil Saga are great examples of this. Hell even the strategy guides were expensive.
If I had to guess I would say we likely aren't going to have supply issues with P5, but I wouldn't expect this to be in a bargain bin any time soon.

Honestly the publishing side of Atlus just makes you wanna bash your head against the wall. They are just so.... ugh!

Cancelled my Gameseek order, they suddenly changed the date to the 14th. Managed to get a Shopto copy this morning though and it's already shipped.

Oh man, after seeing it happen to others so many times, Amazon is shipping my copy early. Looks like it should be here later today. So excited, can't wait to play!!
Seems to be gone currently. Game is selling like hot cakes before release.
Hopefully I will get it today after work here in Hamburg Germany. ;_;

The PS4 version has sold out, try ShopTo instead.
I got my dispatched confirmation from Amazon today so starting tomorrow, Persona will consume my life for the next couple of weeks, can't wait!
Man it's also expensive on PSN. Hopefully GameStop or some other store will have it in stock tomorrow. I cancelled my Amazon Take Your Heart Out pre-order and didn't have a pre-order in for the standard edition. Have been around the city today to see if anyone would sell it early but nope. The DLC isn't up here in Denmark yet either.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Once again PSA, Gamestop will start selling the game at 9PM tonight so anyone who doesn't want to wait till tomorrow or wants to get their copy a bit earlier, y'all know.

So I pre-ordered the game on PSN (us) digitally. Just initiated the preload. The games icon on PS4's UI has a Take-Your-Heart-badge. Did anyone else recognise this? Is this the normal icon for every edition of the game?
Nope. Game and DLC need to be from the same region for it to work.

I've pre-ordered digitally from NA and I have the same Take Your Heart icon. I guess it's just the normal icon.

Got my copy today which I wasn't expecting, happy to be proven wrong though.
Now it can taunt me since I can't play it for a few more hours.

Anybody who bought this off Amazon seeing it say that "it's on the way"? I'm not sure if it's shipping to me directly today, but there's no clear way to find out.. it seems high enough on the progress bar that it could be the case.
I've never had Amazon ship regular packages themselves, even when buying from them directly.

Sounds amazing, however not quite unexpected from the game, I'm sure it will keep me busy until Switches are back in stock for Zelda...
There should be a tracking number somewhere in your order details normally. At least that's the way it is here, doesn't matter if prime or not.
My copy arrived this morning and I've put a couple of hours into it.
A couple of hours barely even scratches the surface of Persona games, it seems... I haven't had the opportunity to do anything other than what the game tells me to do as yet, (spoilers)
.
I've had to whack the brightness all the way up to see anything in the first dungeon, incidentally - seems odd that there's no real balance here. Don't know if this is what was making my eyes water a bit as I was playing, or it could be that I've been cleaning the house...
I doubt I have anything to add that others haven't - it's immensely stylish, and rather slow going to start with, but so far seems pretty intriguing - which is more than most recent JRPGs!

give it to meeee
There's a tracking number, but Amazon's own delivery service (AMZL) has no way to track by number, even a chat representative said they had no way of knowing.
At least with UPS/USPS/FedEx you can track it pretty well. AMZL just has a super vague "On the way" status.
Oh well.
Leaving work in a minute, and really all I gotta do today is prepare for a presentation for tomorrow. Shouldn't take longer than an hour or so. So after 5pm, I've got nothing to do all day.
I want to go to bed at 6pm and wake up after midnight and just play all night, go give my presentation at 8am and then come back home and keep playing lmao.

Thanks, good to know. Was wondering if they somehow messed up my order, because in my library the icon was different at first.

You're crazy lol.
I know this doesn't reflect in over all ales, but it just feels good to see it in the top
Anyways, I tried JP audio to see how good it is in my last session, before going to bed, but there was no voiced dialogues in like 5 minutes and I just turned off the whole system lol.
Maybe on NG+

Really?!
I've really liked the dubs in the past, and have seen no reason to seek out the Japanese ones, despite actually preferring them in most other cases.
Can anyone point me to any (non-spoiler) examples? Would be nice to know before I get to start the game myself.

Was really hoping to get my copy today but looks like I missed out. Tomorrow I guess, I know it shipped last week at least
I got mine delivered this past Friday for some reason.
The big one is the dub cannot pronounce hardly any of the Japanese names correctly.
Sometimes different characters will even pronounce it two different ways, both wrong!
Its really sloppy to be honest.

You still can't change difficulty on the fly, right?
Finally yesterday finished the 1st dungeon, a couple days left on the mark, around level10 and 13 hours in.
Oh! I found out only after that I could use skills like "Dia" out of combat. So many wasted potions.
Now things are expanding at a fast pace.
I feel that the days are too short, barely have time for activities
before its time to sleep.
Guess chosing wisely what to do is crucial.
Wasn't easy specially since I was not prepared for it. I went there with 11 days left and oh boy... you better level up, make money, get items and not get ambushed.

Mementos, arcana relationships poping up, exams and others.
Explore relations, part time jobs and study.

Honestly it doesn't bother me that much. I speak German and French and the names in those languages are always butchered too.
You can, except if you choose the easiest difficulty.

Just press Square to auto-heal your party. I think it just automatically uses the dia spell(s) on the characters that have it.
Someone posted a tweet from one of the VA's and they apparently got told how to pronounce them from the JP office.
Okay, watching some youtube videos of the English version, it's actually really, really good. I'm pretty pleasantly surprised to be honest. The writing is a slight step back from P4 (sometimes the phrasing of things can be a bit awkward) but it's still mostly well done and the voice acting is top notch. Really making me want to play the English version now!
Then there is incompetence from the top down I guess.
I would say I am surprised. But it is Atlus.
But fuck it I can't moan too much. We do have the JPN audio after all.
