That was the most underrated love confession in Persona series.
Man, Rio had a really great design.
Also that scene is hilarious.

Catching up on the ol' backlog with subs for Lizbeth's and Maggie's trailers~
Back to simple production values for these because sanity. pleaseunderstand.jpg
I'll get to Mari's and and Theo's after I've gotten some sleep. Still feeling the effects of doing a good chunk of that Golden Arena Mode stuff on three hours of sleep yesterday and I want to be at my best when translating the shit out of Mari's poetry. ;D
Also I don't know if any of you had confirmed it for yourselves yet, but Elizabeth is almost certainly a boss character of some sort in the game. There's actually like a single frame prior to that last scene that shows the party makeup for that fight and she is distinctly not in it. You can find it for yourselves if you download the video and go through it frame by frame~

It's actually kind of jarring how good it is next to Kenji. Soejima's art improved a lot between P3 and P3P.
Thanks for these <3
And yeah, I figured Elizabeth, Margaret, Theo, and possibly some others will be optional bosses. No sense not to given their legacy and all that. Betcha the Reaper is an FOE too. >_>
Screencap:
That doesn't look like endgame HP, going off previous Etrian Odyssey games.
Well, it's a four to five year difference, so it makes sense.

I hope Theodore and Margeret are bosses too. Wouldn't mind fighting Marie either, ho hum.
Also, another group date scene? I honestly found the Group Date Cafe hilarious (in a horribly awkward way). I hope those kinds of scenes aren't amped up to be too zany.

HAHA! epic, WILL SMITH the easter egg boss that puts the mc's swag to shame =)
What is most interesting is their HP pools are consistent with being about half way through the game using Etrian Odyssey standards. Makes me wonder if that fight with Elizabeth is mandatory then...

Can I be in there, too? I wanna be the most pessimistic of the bunch
.So here's what's still bugging me and I'm not sure a consensus has been reached anywhere on this: Japanese previews and one of the trailers have said that you'll have a total of 20 characters to pick from for your party. Here's what a Dengeki preview says on the subject just so any other Japanese speakers can verify my translation:
Were there any plausible theories floated as to who could fill in the remaining slots? The Japanese sentence is very explicitly talking about your party that you actually bring to fight with you, so Fuuka and Rise are ostensibly excluded and with Rei and Zen counting as one character, that leaves us with three characters they still haven't discussed. I'm guessing that they're just bonus ones that you can recruit for funsies if Atlus is going to remain mum on the subject until release, but still.

You and me both.
Most assumed that the remaining spots would be filled be the Velvet Room attendants, but I don't know anymore.
If it's three remaining slots, than Elizabeth, Theodore, and Margaret as optional or secret characters is the obvious answer.
I almost want it to be P1 MC, and Tatsuya/Maya just to make us oldschool fans happy.
Probably the attendants, but who knows really.
Etrian Odyssey games usually has a few classes that are locked in the beginning, so these hidden characters will probably work in a similar way.
Hell, it might even be a class from EO like the Landsknecht or something.

Are we expecting to see anything on P5 at E3, or are they more likely to hold it back for TGS?
*golf clap*
*golf clap*
I can't imagine them showing an actual trailer at E3. It'll probably just pop up one day on the official website.
I mean, sure, the thought of the attendants crossed my mind, too, but only doing three out of the four strikes me as weird. I dunno. I thought there might have been preview coverage or something where more light was shed on it since aside from the trailers, I mostly only pay attention to what news Gematsu pays me to translate, but yeah.
Full blowout in both Famitsu and at the Sony conference. Complete with trailer and everything.
Probably nothing. I expect a reveal in Famitsu sometime after E3 but before TGS.
I would expect nothing of Persona 5 for a while still. I think they're focusing on two games at a time, so I think they'll show P5 around Ultimax's release.
I would think that they'd throw another one of those streams to show a new P5 trailer, it's worked out for them so far.
I'll do anything to be reunited with my One True Waifu, Old Lady McTrollpherson. <3
I think I'm done with Atlus streams now. I never feel good after them, just like I've wasted three hours of my time. The P4G Animation one was the straw that broke the camel's back, haha.
Remember THAT stream was Aniplex, not Atlus. Place blame where it belongs!
The Persona 5 one was no better. Although I was laughing like a maniac when the first game they showed was PQ. For a brief moment I thought that was what Hashino had been working on.
I always figured somebody had worked that out by now, but according to NicoNico comments on a stream archive I just found, she's Noriko Shouji, apparently an ex-entertainment reporter and TV broadcaster. The wiki page I linked is only in Japanese, but yeah.
Sure enough, that's her. Google image search for "東海林のり子" brings up all sorts of photos.
We now have a name to go with the woman who masterfully trolled us all. >_>;
Well until a year from now when I'll hopefully know a decent amount of japanese I guess I will have to take your word for it
But yeah, that's basically what I expected, thanks for digging it up!
*One google search later*
I'm guessing this is not her...
Actually, the wiki page says she's quite the known fan of visual kei and rock, so who knows?
That image is hide of X-Japan (or rather, a model based off him) whom she interviewed before his death. Basically hide was making a "real human doll" before his death, and it was finished after his passing. Hosted in a museum that was located in his hometown in his honor. She did a report on it, it would seem.
Damn thing took ¥4,000,000 to make.

In regards to PQ, i cant allow myself to get hyped. Im actually avoiding the new videos and info all together. This is one of the perks of living in the UK :/
He's like the broccoli you get with a dish from a nondescript small town Chinese restaurant, which also happens to serve gyros and hamburgers. The vegetable itself might be able to taste wonderful on any given occasion, possibly being tastier than any meat, but in that specific dish, it merely serves as a grave reminder that you should probably get through it quickly. Tepid, dry and undercooked, it still somehow manages to bring a wide swath of unwelcome experiences with it.

I'm available, what time would constitute throughout the day though? Remember I'm English.
Also, damn! You picked the first busy world cup day? And the day when England play their first game? Luckily the match doesnt kick off until 11pm over here.
PS. Did you see mine and bruce's VS card that I made?
Characters a staff updated.
This is coming along quite nicely, although like someone said, we need somewhere official to get this going properly because things get easily lost in this thread since it moves so quickly.
Also, WOO! Glad to be part of the staff on this now.

Of course you can Ridley
The staff position for Dantis is not official. I just put it there as a placeholder as he tends to draw a ton of images for all of us to enjoy. The same applies for pepsiman. Everyone else on the staff side have confirmed however
Dantis and Pepsiman, you in?
The IRC chat seems like the best place to discuss matters. If you guys are free this evening, we can do so then.
Welcome aboard Ridley.

Still I dont know if im going to be able to full steam on this (and thats even more work if im the only artist) so take that in to account. But I will gladly help in what I can.
I feel like all of Pepsiman's dialogue should be the most eloquent Japanese he can possibly muster...only for it to be thrown into Google Translate with no corrections made afterwards.
Oh, and what time would everyone like to get together? I imagine it'd be a little tricky to coordinate things with all the timezones working against us.

Yeah, i doubt anyone will have the time to go full steam on this. We'll have to go on a recruiting spree over the next few days to make up a fairly stable team. If we can recruit Chet, Jintor and Amarda, as fellow artists, then that would definitely work in our favor.
Dantis, anything we can do to get some quick sketches from you? (Loading screens, game over screen, etc)

Yep, Seems too ambitious maybe. I know is for fun more than anything, but that list of characters is already preatty big.
Honestly, unless we're just going to gut the battle system, I think it'd be best to get some sort of gameplay prototype ready before doing anything else. It's going to be the thing that pops up the most, so it really needs to be good enough to make you want to see everything else. As great as the ideas have been, to do otherwise would really be putting the cart before the horse.

To alleviate any concerns that some of you may be having, i'll address some key issues here.
As someone that briefly played around with rpgmaker many years ago back in college, I can tell you that anyone on this forum can use that program with EASE. It requires no programming knowledge, and most things are drag and drop. The engine is loaded with a shit ton of pre backgrounds, sprites, sound effects, music etc. However, if you do have some programming knowledge, and other skills(art, music, etc), it will set the game apart from other fan projects.
In regards to the character roster being to big. The current roster could be implemented into the game within 5 minutes effectively (sprites, animation, poses, battle abilities etc). Its that easy. Problems would only arise if you really wanted to go all out and have a persona like portrait for each character when they speak.
Personally, i dont think this project seems ambitious at all. Then again, that's only because i know what to expect.
Making a game will not take hours and hours of work every single day for a year. In fact, you could spend 15-20 minutes in 4 days out of the 7 days and get a pretty good project put together within a month or so.
Id encourage most of you to look into the engine and see how it operates. (Youtube etc)

Well, that's certainly reassuring. I somehow missed that you already had experience tinkering with it.
Actually, scratch that. Let's just use Translation Party, instead:
