Inconsistent would be having the movie finished for a bit like this one probably is and not working on the next one in the mean time.
Still probably a pipe dream with one movie a year more realistic, but one can hope.
I don't think the movies are as big of releases as you're making them out to be. However, it all depends on BD/DVD releases. It usually takes 8 months for a BD/DVD release for most anime movies, so a year apart seems the most logical. There are always exceptions though, like the Berserk movies so I could be wrong.
Late Summer 2014, and then early 2015 is a good timeframe for the movies actually. :S
After all, this isn't Evangelion that takes 5+ years to make a movie.
The movie was announced June 10th 2012, so it's been in the works for about a year and a half.
I honestly don't expect them to turn them out all that much faster than that.
Sure. I don't think they're cultural events, I'm just saying Atlus has been happy to promote SoB over a year as a major motion picture. The entities involved in producing these films are clearly invested on that level.
Yeah, we've been talking about this film forever. I see no reason to expect them to be put on a fast track. You can pull the wind out of your own promotional sails by doing that.
I doubt they've been working on the movie for a year and a half. Animation and production probably ended around the time we got the second PV or maybe a bit after. Animation studios don't work linearly, and are usually ahead by a bit when it comes to this stuff.
The success/failure of the first movie will probably impact production times for the second one tho.
It probably has been done for a bit so they could get it ready for distribution, and they probably did start production on the second one in the meantime. That said, I don't see that shaving more than 6 months off it.
I also don't know all that much about the film industry, so who knows.

It actually wouldn't be horrible, but it'd be an awful way to allocate resources for those of us who have already played them to death backwards and forwards.
e: And fuckballs that would be HUUUUUGE for an 'app' to download. unless everything got put into extreme compression

Persona 5 better not have a cliched ending sequence
. Okami
where all the social links give 'strength' to the MC one by one
handled that stuff way better.
Needs more hell hands pulling the party to their doom.
Either that or they squish it by making Tartarus a VN too.
............

.......It would probably be more fun that way.
I REALLY hope they improve the dungeons in P5. Heck, I'd like non-randomized dungeons. There's not really a huge amount of backtracking through dungeon floors, so I don't feel like the randomization is particularly necessary.
It's only a little over a gig, that's not big at all. Lots of iOS games are around that size and bigger.

I think they could do a Harry Potter 1-style "your-friend helped you and then got left behind" thing, but in the end that's more or less the moral of the social link idea.
What I think is more likely, and what I really hope for, is that that stuff gets more downplayed and isn't the entirety of plot and ending. I'm hesitant to say the True Ending of Persona 4 was close to unnecessary, though I do like a lot about it.
e: Oops missed refresh
I'm not up to date with iOS games
because fuck Apple's products
P4 True End Spoilers
I always felt like P4's true end doesn't really add that much to the plot as a whole, which is a touch disappointing. I mean, yeah it clears up some lasting mysteries, but it doesn't really change anything. Ameno-sagiri has exactly the same motive as Izanami so the plot twist is basically "This one guy wanted to do this thing oh wait no he's the minion of this other guy who wanted to do the same thing". They even disappear in the same way going all "Alright you beat me but I'm really powerful but I'll watch and see how awesome humans are". Not to mention that there's already been a ton of "Oh wait this guy was the real villain along" plot twists throughout the series, so another one is a bit much.
I'm not up to date with iOS games, but wow. I looked up the iso and you're right. I'm suprised. The original was like 4GB or so and would be half your capacity on a 8 gig.because fuck Apple's products
The fact that they managed to cram all of Persona 3 onto the PSP is downright amazing, actually. >_>;

Spoiler Reply to P4 True End Spoilers
Yeah, totally. There's cool stuff like the Izanagi/Izanami and as sappy as it is- I was attached enough to P4 characters to not mind them all giving me their friendship powers to win, but ultimately it was a bit weird.
In fact I'll go the extra mile and say I like how the anime handled the importance of that fight a lot more.
Yu's shadow and everything made that all feel a lot more personal and final- though it'd never work exactly in the game, it's a good parallel to compare and contrast with. I kinda prefer it myself.
Yeah, the anime did a good job with that, although it felt a bit rushed at times. The inclusion of the
Margaret fight, especially.
However much I loved origins I feel totally uncompelled to buy legends, at least not until it's cheaper
In other news I got my P4G copy signed today by Troy Baker, Yuri Lowenthal and Tara Platt so yay
YOU BASTARD.
My friend is at MCM and I asked him to get me some stuff, but he didn't read the text until after he left.
Also Legends crushes Origins.

Oh yeah. It was rushed as hell, but the ideas there were good enough to keep things redeemable/good/interesting IMO. More or less, I'm just glad it's not the same.

Luv u 2
I Can't imagine how legends could crush origins, I consider the latter as close to a perfect game as any game I've played in recent memory
I think she's extra voices.
Edit: Actually, I don't think she's even that. I think you're right
No, I didn't know she was there till today otherwise I would have brought my arena copy but she seemed cool with it. They all seemed really nice but there was an ungodly for Troy Baker
It's supposed to be a punpkin-thing. It's her Halloween costume from Golden.

I missed Eriko during my playthrough ;_;
I should have recognized the almighty Nanjo from the #1 though...
As I said on twitter, it reminds me animals fighting each other while occasionally snapping at their human trainer.
It is bizarrely interesting to read for 3:30 in the morning and not feeling good, however.
