Really!?!? Wow guess I must've seen the post then. My apologies.
Edit:
Waffles?
I don't own the PSP version (yet), and there's no way in hell I'll play the PS1 version.
"not to play".
There isn't a single scene in the game that even slightly hints at this being the case, so...???
They are good games. That doesn't mean I'm suffering through the dated interface of Persona 1 again.
Do you REALLY want to subject me to this?
Eh, she's upset when Kanji doesn't get a nosebleed with her in the swimsuit, though that may be reaching I guess. Also thought she was playing to Yosuke with the cook-off thing. She is the most obvious with Yu though.
If I'm not remembering things right, it means only one thing: another playthrough time!
holy shit. I've never seen that before, but holy shit.They are good games. That doesn't mean I'm suffering through the dated interface of Persona 1 again.

That's because she's a model, her job is to be hot and make guys fawn.

Persona 1 is not THAT BAD, 7/10 game yea but not outright bad. *shrug*

I played through it again a couple years ago, it wasn't awful!
Yeah. The UI improvements to the PSP version are significant. but I don't own a digital copy, and I can't exactly rent the one I played seeing as Blockbuster no longer exists.
It's the black sheep of the franchise. They hadn't quite discarded the SMT roots yet, and there was some very blatant signs of "We're not used to programming in 3D!" with the overworld and such.
Essentially, it's dated.
You're trying to tempt me aren't you? IT WON'T WORK I TELL YOU.
*covers hands over ears*
La la la la I can't heeear yooooou.
When the PSP verison cnme out, I went and bought it adn i was so excited to see how this series got started, and the was even before I played P3 and P4. More of a collectors thing for me at the time.
How disappointed were you?

Hold up everyone on the Persona train. American student Mark has something to say.

It's one of those things where if you grew up playing it (or 90s RPGs similar to it), then you have a lot more tolerance for the dated mechanics versus someone who's first experience was the extremely streamlined and polished Persona 3/4
Not as disappointed as I was going back after playing 3 & 4 a few years later. Just got bored really.
That game pissed me off so much with how long you had to lug that weakened guy around.
For Persona 1: And yeah, it can be rough now, but I grew up on Gold Box games and Might and Magic. That first-person, graph-paper dungeon stuff was right up my alley. Plus the characters were much cooler than most games of that ilk.

As for me, I love to find and play retro RPG every now and then. Farthest I go is the SNES however, can't dig the NES/Master System ones

You all got the song stuck in my head now.
ARE YOU ALL HAPPY NOW?!?!?

I tried to play Persona 1, I really did, but the encounter rate is so horrendous.
I can't go back to random jRPG encounters anymore.
Maybe I'll crack open my old save file, though, since everyone's giving it the for-the-history praise. Could someone please summarize the story up to...

I think the alternate universe just opened up and I'm supposed to go to a castle.

That mobile dark theme is baller as hell man. I just wish there was a new one for the redesign
All words are bannable.
Yeah, the prologue is lengthy.
It's alright, like another 40 minutes or so then it's dungeoning time.

Only a couple more hours to go!
The slow start is worth it in the long run.
This isn't hyperbole, either.
The long opening is it's weakest part, then you have a mini dungeon before the game opens up proper.

This means I agree with you.
Hell yeah!
The game has one of the strongest cast of characters I've had the pleasure of spending any amount of time with.
I love the battle system. Press turn! Battles never get boring for me. Find their weakness, knock their asses down and go all-out and crush them!
The structure of the game is just perfect for me. The whole thing flows so well (aside from the opening, which does drag on). There are very few games of this length that I can play as many times as I have P4.
The negatives are so minor and few that they do nothing to bring the game down for me.
So awesome. Now I return to play some more.
It's the most recent release before Golden.Innocent Sin is 30 dollars?
Welp....I'd rather just buy P3
