When it was first brought up a while back, I dismissed the "selfie" persona summoning. That's just too silly!, I thought. But now that I've mulled it over, I wouldn't be too opposed to it. I'm sure each character could bring a unique style to the capture and I feel like it would it fit in naturally with the urban city theme (assuming that's it from the trailer). Capturing your "self" with a picture (on your own terms) as a way to show yourself off to the world feels like something Persona would do. Group photos for team attacks!

One way you could potentially make this work is if the cameras all used the flash and then the silhouette/shadow that appears behind the character then turned into the Persona.

It would tie into the fact that Personae are repurposed Shadows.

Shit will hit the fan when you try to snapchat in the middle of class.

Huh. I hadn't realised that you were so down on it.

Even I can't defend Ultimax's abysmal writing.

 

[A Dead Diehard]

It has some good moments. But it also introduced a character that I like less than Marie.

I thought the slink spoilercast had it right by saying the story was something you would expect out of Naruto

Glad we agree.

Spoiler

Also, it reminded me of 'The Yu-Gi-Oh drinking game', if you catch my drift.

Haha! I assume there'd be more than just that required to make it happen.

Related question- could the P4 crew even summon outside of the TV world? I know the P3 crew could do it.

P3

Chidori's persona manifests itself in the middle of the day before Shinjiro forces some meds down her throat. So that could just be an aspect of it going berzerk.

Ah! Yes, this is what I meant by "the P3 crew could do it."

Spoiler

Chidori's Persona manifests and tries to strangle her in the hospital. So it's at least possible for them to appear in the "normal" world, though I don't know about deliberately.

I actually meant the SEES guys, but yeah this sorta thing. Does anyone from the SEES team do it?

No. Nothing outside of Arena. There's a whole subplot about how getting rid of the Dark Hour stops making them special.

 

[Weiss]

Given that we're bound to get some form of DLC, what are you expecting?

I can seem some cosmetics, like Gekoukan and Yasogami uniforms, and Featherman costumes are a good bet too.

I can also see them having pre-order personas like Orpheus and Izanagi.

$59.99 to not have to play as Marie.

Though really I expect (overpriced) personas and costumes, maybe even an extra scenario later on.

yeah Takaya talks about it when he says he doesn't want the dark hour to go away

P3

Spoiler

Mostly it's Strega's initial motivation to fight you, and it also gives Junpei some conflict, because he values his power the most.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Ah, that's right. I forgot about that; though I guess they didn't mention it that much in the first place.

 

[PK Gaming]

Related related question, other than the Arena series, do the P3 crew summon their personae outside of the Dark Hour?

It's heavily implied that Mitsuru summons her Persona during the hot spring event without an evoker.

It's a gag scene, so YMMV.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

If the Persona 4 characters could summon their Personas in the real world, we'd have Yosuke and Chie summoning theirs during arguments, Rise summoning hers in bars and on school trips and Teddie summoning his everywhere for no reason.

Persona 3 crew have that discipline. P1 crew too, I guess. I'd say P2 crew, but then there's Eikichi throwing his Persona at people who don't have one and beating them up.

 

[Weiss]

Sorry, I was referring to P5.

 

[LX_Theo]

Actually, old games' character Personas as DLC is something I can get behind. That and costumes based on them.

If it's designed and fitted properly I'm totally down with that.

I know I'm probably in the minority but the Tales of approach of costumes it's just crazy and well... unfunny.

Spoiler

If we can accessorize/customize (think pokemon x/y) I'd be so happy

Costumes in 'Tales of' were great until Namco discovered DLC, now it's just disappointing.

Also, I'd really enjoy a customizable protagonist for P5 since just being able to simply change hairstyles / hair colour would be a nice way to make the character represent you better, and customization beyond that would just be great of course.

Wait, was the Velvet Room not a car in Persona 4?

It was. What implies otherwise?

 

[Busaiku]

Just saw the original intro, it was a big empty room with the sofa.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Just symbolic of the Velvet Room. Possibly its form before Narukami becomes a guest there, since its form depends on the nature and number of its guests. Doesn't really matter, I think.

One of my favorite scenes in P2:IS was when Eikichi sicked his Persona on Lisa and Tatsuya (who at the time, lacked Personas), simply because Lisa insulted him.

Hahaha

a month before the US released, and SHOwed the SHO trailers, which clearly implied it was taking a SHOnen direction (Friendship, bonds, etc), i already knew what to expect, which in turn lowered my expectations and made me enjoy it. My major complaint is that stupid ass

he was screaming about "bonds, rarrrwww, arrghhh bonds". The Adachi and Yu moment was pure HYPE.

I also loved the epilogue scenes and the build up in the P3 story. Its a fighting game after all, so I never thought the story would be of the same caliber as the RPG.

Adachi

So, it looks like the next episode of PSC will be airing on November 12th, and it will feature Nanako's voice actor. Some kind of contest for fans to go to the taping as well. I'm guessing the show will be about the projection mapping Persona Q Escape from the Cyber Labyrinth that is opening up on November 13th somewhere in Tokyo.

Wrote about it when it was announced. PSC #10 definitely won't be about that real escape game; Akemi Kanda will be a guest there and it's going to have a live audience.
