^ P5 was definitely announced a tad too early.

Thanks. Got the steebook, and saved $12! I guess Amazon is still having a sell for Prime members. Total was around $51.

Yeah, OSTs excite me much less than more unique or interesting things like the plushie and school bag. Still, I hope they release it digitally somewhere.
Yeah, prime members get 20% off for preorders and within 2 weeks of release seems to be a permanent thing for now. Maybe to compete with BB's card system that does more or less the same thing.
Hoping that Atlus might have changed their stance on dual-audio just as other publishers have in the meantime.

I've played them all, thanks for asking.
Like Zhao_Yun said, it's 2016 now (2017 when this releases), no excuses left.

There will always be a digital release somewhere - whether we can pay Atlus for it is another thing entirely.
It seems as if the P4DAN CD was a fluke, and they only know how to release sampler CD's in the west.
Would still be neat if they included the Japanese audio as an option. While I would play w/ the dub on my first playthrough, I'd definitely like to play w/ Japanese audio for new game+ to see what it's like.

Have they showed any English voice yet? Trying to stay on a blackout as much as possible.
No, they'll probably reveal the English voices in a trailer next week (maybe at Sony's press conference)

Are you fucking kidding me? I step away for one hour to do some stuff and it gets sold out!?
Fuck it, I'm preordering the Japanese deluxe set now.

Actually, it's my sister's birthday.
I was born the 29th, so since I won't have a birthday that year I'll be celebrating it then!

Hold your horses - Hardin has confirmed there are no limits for premium edition preorders - it'll be back 'in stock' soon.

better than TMS skipping the dub altogether

Not shocked, but man am I disappointed.

I'm alright with this. I'll just ask for it as a birthday gift, and save $60. Plus, gives me time to clear out backlog.

Ok, thanks.
And I wonder what the steelbook will look like, obviously that is not the art being used, says artwork not final.

I'm fine with Feb 2017. I expected it. Also gives me more time to beat Persona 4 Golden and possibly play some of the spinoffs like P4 Arena Ultimax which I got through PS Plus.
And don't worry about Horizon being so close. If all of the other PS4 exclusives are games to go by, then Horizon will be late March or early April

Hardly surprising but still sad.
Totally missed out on the Premium Edition going up on Amazon this morning, but honestly outside of maybe the artbook nothing in there does anything for me. I'm a sucker for steelbooks and artbooks but that's about it, I don't need figures or bags or whatever so I just pre-ordered the regular launch edition which still gets me my steelbook and with the Prime discount it's only like $50.

I'll be shocked if they already voiced something like 8 months before release. My money is on this game not getting time at Sony conference at all that's why Atlus revealed the release date before E3.

I already had half a mind to do so because of the series OST and the 5 months wait; this kind of just sent me over the edge...but alright, I'll sit tight for the week.

God, I can't get over how bummed out I am over this. It's 2008 all over again.
Not having an option is always bad, but personally I'd prefer them skipping the dub over having no Japanese voice-option in Persona 5's case.
If the game was set in the US and the characters were American, I'd prefer having a dub.

Good, this means a lot of you can go try Trails of Cold Steel. The sequel is coming out in the fall. Play it, the game is amazing.

They charge around the time it's released. Like a week before it's released usually.

Completely up to personal preference, and I don't think this is the thread to argue about that.
I wonder if there's even sliver of hope for Japanese audio DLC.. Can't imagine myself playing this with dub at all, good thing I have the 20th anniversary edition coming but I have a feeling it'll have some hard kanjis so won't be the smoothest experience.

there is really not. Atlus did that survey where they asked dual audio or extra pack in goodies, and basically no one gave a shit about dual audio if it meant a sound track sampler or a steel book was on the line
