Considering that Hashino most likely won't be heading P6, I'm actually quite concerned for the future of this series.

Damn this game wouldve looked glorious in 4k.i dont think weve had any cel shaded console game running in 4k yet.
I hope the color scheme of P5 is like the colour of a night full of stars.
Lol
It will take at least 4 years for the Persona 6 announcement
Given how well the P4 stuff did, I have no doubt that we are going to get a P5 game universe

And 6 for the actual release.

So is the screenshot blocking a permanent thing? Or is it just for the review period?
If it's permanent that's almost bad enough for me to cancel...

Assumed permanent, as Japanese version still has it 6 months after launch.

This looks too anime for me
P3 and P4 were released within like 2 years of each other, and I recall P5 taking so long because they built the engine from scratch. If they use the same engine for P6, I can see it coming out sooner than later. At least it shouldn't take another 8 goddamn years.
Fair enough I suppose.

That boost from glorious reviews.
Realistically speaking, how much can it sell in the West?

As many copies as they have before they run out of stock ;P?

Shallow question but does the game have any missable trophies?
A 100-hour story with missable trophies will just let me know not even dream of the platinum.

Amazon is not a good indicator for sales. That said, maybe 150-200k opening month is what I'd guess.

True. It depends on if he has someone in mind to replace him. And I feel like Atlus would be keeping close reins on their cash cow for P6 so the worst we might get is a by the numbers Persona... Hopefully. I do want to give the new director a chance but he or she has a ton to live up to.
I feel like that's reserved more for the SMT series tho. Persona is bright, strong colors starting with P2.
Can you imagine a crossover with the MCU? Dancing with Spiderman? Social-Link dating Thor? Get on this Atlus, it'd be GAF's GOTY every single year!

P5 worse than a screen protector confirmed.

Super close to a 95 (though we still have some lower reviews yet to be added which will bring it down a notch).

Probably Edge review when the magazine comes out, but I don't think DT is counted in MC. Wasn't for Nier: Automata. Any others?

Yeah DT doesn't count for MC. Their Zelda and Horizon reviews aren't on there either.
There are NG+ only trophies.
I hope they stream it again this time. I really like some of the live versions they've done of songs like Burn my Dread.
Are thee annoying trophies like the Rise lines in P4G?
Jawbreaker
Member
Ah, I didn't check to see if they were on MC. I guess that just leaves the Edge review.

Worries me because all the P4 spinoffs have been either bland or sometimes even missed the point.
My slight beef with P5 is that it already feels like a refinement of the formula, instead of a rethinking. A purposefully conservative P6 is almost a worst case scenario.
Technically there's Okami on PS3, it runs in 4K, though the PS3 cannot output to 4K so on your TV it's downscaled to 1080p. Acts more like supersampling for anti-aliasing.

The reviewer from jeuxvideo.com will make a live streaming where he explains why he "only" gave P5 a 17/20. People insulted him on their forum. This is nuts.

Zelda already has it locked. Persona 5 will have to settle for second place unless RDR 2 comes out this year (it won't.)
I haven't played a single Persona 4 spin off. Golden good ending is just perfect. I don't need any of them, so I just ignored them.

Hopefully not, persona 4 came out soon after 3. Atlus loves to reuse assets.

It's the 55th best seller of the year on amazon.com for videogames, not bad, not great either.

I wanna get this for my PS4 eventually, but in the mean time I'm wondering if my sis might like it. She enjoys RPGs for the story aspects but is pretty bad about learning game systems. Is there a way for someone to get through the game without ever taking the time to learn the combat?
Zelda will probably win the most, but P5/Nioh/Nier/Horizon/RDR2/Odyssey/SoW will all get at least scattered awards, and maybe even a good chunk of them. There's also probably 1 or 2 annual/semi-annual franchises that will have unusually strong entries this year and end up competing.
This is going to be a hell of a year.
