Yeah, the timing probably just likes up. Makes sense, too. How much of that 20 page Famitsu spread can be PQ stuff when the game will have been out for two weeks and it's been covered to death? We just said some pages ago P4D stuff must be coming, so I guess we were right!

Teddie and the disco ball!
Persona 4: Golfing All Day confirmed.
Jokes aside, I'll be really really glad if they show anything about P4D.
That depends if they showed Catherine at 2011, P4G at 2012 and Dragon's Crown at 2013.
If they did, they yes, I actually think it is definitely possible.

Probably. I didn't feel like Chie was at all buuuuuut I forgot to finish her social link so that might be why.
Hmmmm I'm at level 78I'll keep trying to beat it and hope I get lucky.
It's really less about what level you are and more about your stats/Persona you're using.
So what Persona are you rocking here, and with what skills? A good Persona, other than Izanagi, you might try for is Trumpeter. Probably one of the better Demons/Personas in the series, I think. I'm all about Angels in the series, anyway. Trumpeter and Throne are my boys.
I mean, that SLink with "Maya" was pretty good, but best in both games, I dunno.
Unless you're talking Aigis, in the which case I think there's a fair argument to be made.
They did. The badge is always something they're actually showing, with a trailer and demo and everything. It's probably an aid in getting people to drop by the booth.
I, at least, was really doubtful (then again, always am) about P4D or P5 showing up solely for the fact that Atlus hasn't shown it off in Japan, but I think this might be a good indication that it'll be there.
Like you said, it might match up in terms of timing when E3 happens if PM #Spring or the June 19th issue of Famitsu show off P4D, where new videos and media could be associated with them. I'm just kinda surprised that Atlus USA would be showing off anything significant and Persona related before the Japan side does.
Edit: Previous badge trends indicate that it's indeed something they'll be showing at E3, it seems. Not a straight up confirmation, but it's most likely at this point.
Could mean a lot. Like, P4D releasing before P5 and maybe we could even have a P4D release date.
Ooooh shit.
I'm getting excited now.
Also, weirdly, Sophia totally called this if it happens.
So dancing all night is going to be at E3. So along with Ultimax and hopefully Q that sounds real good for Atlus. Now just show off 5...
EDIT: Anyone else think that reason all these magazines are going to show off Persona stuff is to recap E3 announcements with Japan details?

Been telling her to use Trumpeter. For Debilitate alone it's worth having him around.
Edit: aso P4D at E3 is fucking fantastic. Cannot wait to see that game, wish it was coming out this year.
It might also be worth noting the demo could be only partially localized. English text with JP voices. At the con Keats went to, Erin said she hadn't seen P4D yet, so that's what I'm expecting.
I don't give a hoot about it being English, haha! I just want to see the game.

Its genius
I'm using Yoshitsune. I thought he would be better than Trumpeter lol
Skills aren't great. I'll have to recheck but I've got power charge and Brave Blade.
Yoshitsune needs Hassou Tobi in order to reach its potential.
Could also simply be a result of Sony looking Atlus's way for more Vita stuff to show off.
Heh, instead of Persona 5 being at the conference, it'll be Persona 4 Dancing.
I don't think I ever even used that, but my first playthrough I pretty much JUST used Izanagi and perfected that mofo into a killing machine. Sorta how I did my strat in P3, too. Focused on collecting cards for to upgrade Orpheus. Course then I got
Messias, and it sorta didn't matter as much?

Hmmmm I'm at level 78
I was level 89. Overleveled. I think if you get to early eighties it'll be enough.
Gurlllllllll Yoshitsune was destroying everything for me until this boss.
So I just gotta reach level 83 and he learns it right?
I'll just grind Yoshitsune a bit and hope for the best. Is it possible to leave the dungeon and come back? Not sure how it works since it's the last day.
Okay cool thanks!

Guys, I have a question. Does P4D events happen before or after P4G's epilogue? And is this information already confirmed?
I was planning to do that. My concern was if I could leave and rest or do I have to basically heal in other dungeons(which is fine, I would just prefer to leave so I can buy more healing items).
You cannot leave the Shadow World, but you may access the shops from the TV set which you normally would use to leave by.
In other news, gosh dang the P1 manga really sells you on Nanjo and Yamaoka's relationship. It's only like, one page of Nanjo, talking, but it adds so much depth to his goal of becoming the Number One man in Japan.
His parents were rich and negligent, and only Yamaoka ever praised or encouraged him, and that is what drives Nanjo's goal. I can just picture a young Nanjo talking with Yamaoka about this, wanting to be #1 so mom and pops will notice, and Yamaoka encouraging him to be #1 because he's the only fucking person who gives two shits about this kid's potential. Small wonder that Nanjo's ultimate Persona is Yamaoka. Because that's the kind of man he wants to be.
Newfound appreciation for P1 here.
Yeah, it expands on things that needed expanding from the game. Such a great companion piece. Feel like it's paced really well.
Buddha and PK, are you caught up?

There's a couple people that feel that way, myself included. I'm sure that's by design. They have something for every flavor.

"The summer after the solving the Yasoinaba case"
Nope, that's totally me too. Granted I'm excited for both, I just wanna get my groove on!

Had one quick look at that Atlus teaser for E3, and there's no doubt. I tried to look for some art that would fit into the silhouette perfectly, but this was the closest thing i coulld find.
Still one can see how they are really similar.
EDIT: One closer look at it, and I actually think that this pic of Teddy would fit perfectly in there.

Yeah well... I am not surprised that. Persona 3 Portable could be beaten in like... 20 hours on Snorefest mode too.
I don't even remember the specifics of what I said! I'm getting pretty good at calling this stuff tho.
Nah, same here. Rhythm>>dungeon crawler for me. I'm interested in all the aspects of P4D equally.
PQ I'm really looking forward to seeing new stuff with the P3 cast. The gameplay, meh.

Thanks for answering me!
Just a second though, they
solved the case in December=Winter right? So the epilogue is like, before Summer, since Summer is like July or so of the other year?
They're not saying literally when they solved the case. They just mean the end of the game.
So by the end of that Summer that year they will have: finished the Inaba case, gone through the events of both Arena games, gone through the Epilogue, and gone through P4D.
Technically the case is not solved until
Izanami is defeated, since she is the one behind everything else that happened in the game.

Basically, it's after the epilogue in Golden. At least, that's my understanding. And I think it happens after PQ and Arena/Ultimax, but I'm not super confident in that. P4 timeline getting a little cramped, ain't it?

PQ happens during P4 and P3.
Not yet, i'm 5 chapters in
Thinking of posting a mini-review, because the Persona 1 manga is fucking awesome

Yeah, PQ happens during both P3 and P4 (TIME PARADOOOOOOOX)
Arena and presumably Ultimax take place during Golden Week (beginning of May I think?)
Then the epilogue happens some time during their Summer Vacation later that year, probably in August. I just rewatched it on YouTube and the time skip right before the epilogue clearly goes all the way through July and a few days into August (but fades out before landing on a day). Right when it shows Yu at the station it says something about it being Summer Vacation.
I don't think we know for sure where P4D fits other than "summer". It would be weird if Yu came back for Golden Week AND P4D in the summer, then again for the epilogue in August/September where they act like it's been a while, so it's probably during/after the epilogue while he's still in Inaba.

Thanks for the answers everyone! Yeah, I think I understand the timeline a little better now

It's definitely Teddie with the disco ball
Persona 5 is a Teddie spinoff game. Teddie Goes To The Big City.
Maybe P4D was just Persona 5 all along.
Maybe both games are there?
Seriously, I never thought P5 should be ruled out entirely and if P4D is there, I definitely still feel that way.
I love how Persona 5 is to far-fetched for you guys, but persona dancing is pretty much guaranteed. I believe someone wrote that it would be a waste of time to show such a niche Japanese game such as P5, but dancing can totally happen.
Just looked closer at the image. That is without a doubt Persona dancing. So Atlus Japan showing a persona game is confirmed. Why show up with just a dancing game when you can show up with your main dancer?
