You really should have taken Elly because Elly starts with a Jugement persona and that makes the game easy mode for real since they're immune to all magic except for the Dark set and it's subtypes.

Just booted up P4 for the first time in a while and forgot about the old P4's title screen had Yu running. Was this supposed to signify something? Seems kind of random.
It changes, actually. Sometimes it's a different character running instead.

I'm just having a hard time imagining them reacting positively to
like that "that's not weird but actually it's really weird" kind of reaction. I mean Rise called him a creep for it and Yosuke is afraid of catching the gay.
Kanji's doll making,
Sorta makes me sad that you have to play the game thrice to experience the whole cast.

It's symbolic of running away from a serial killer that's on the loose.

Pretty sure it's just meant to look cool. And it does. I love the P4 title screen.

Yeah I prefer P4 Vanilla more in that regard
Super-duper agree with this.
I prefer vanilla's opening as well, but Shadow World ain't that bad.
Sogabe did a couple of promotional pieces for Arena, but none of it was ever actually used in the game itself.
I actually really like P4G's title screen. Very modern and slick.
The Persona Team are really ahead of the game in that regard. Their menus and HUDs are really far ahead of their contemporaries. Arena is the only game where I feel like the presentation isn't up to scratch, but I suppose that's because it isn't really P-Studio.
Really? I rather like Arena's presentation. It fits the theme they're going for pretty well.
You feel that way because you're biased. Arena's presentation is very much top-notch among fighting games.

I don't get it. Maybe I missed something, but what makes Rise's interactions with Kanji different than Yosuke's?

Yeah, Arena is super slick. Love the fight introductions and arcade mode transitions.
I only realised when I tried Arena again a few months ago that the whole presentation is meant to look like one of the gaudy TV shows that appears on the Midnight Channel. When you view it like that, it fits pretty well, but it's a very different design paradigm to what P3, P4 and Catherine follow.
I think in terms of actual layout Golden's is superior, but the more abstract look they go for takes a bit of the emotional punch out of it to me.

I dunno, the music not looping in Arena is big time amateur hour stuff. Though that might not be what we're talking about.
Don't' they fix that in Ultimax? I know BB never fixed it.
Depends on what you're referring to. The music in story mode is pretty much all from P3 and P4, so it's understandable that music that wasn't originally intended to loop (
such as Nyx's theme in Labrys's story mode
Personally... I was hoping that Ultimax would have more original music, regardless of who composed it. Kind of a shame all the Shadows use preexisting themes instead of creating two to three new themes for them.
It's most likely because Arena uses Blazblue as a base, and they just don't touch the part of the code that handles the music.
That's interesting. I wonder if Ultimax will even get an OST release then?
Well there's new tracks (Yukari, Junpei, probably Rise, Sho, the new main theme) and we don't know if Story mode will have new music either. So who knows? There's definitely enough to release a mini OST.
There'll probably be a new opening and ending track for the console version too. Five new character themes plus three main game themes is probably enough, yeah.

I'm not too crazy about P4A's original music, so I'm actually fine with this. I just wanted more P3 and P4 songs.

A lot of people say things along these lines.

I'm pretty sure Dantis is European, so he'll never be seeing SMT4.

DAMN, I thought he was going to import a US 3DS? Probabaly the best decision since Atlus and Euro don't get along.

Is it me, or does that look like Kenji, which would make the file name apropos.
