My name is Silver Arrows, and I was recently approved to post in NeoGAF. I'm a refugee of the Megaten board on Reddit, which is fast becoming a shit hole of 4chan posters and idiocy. But I digress.
I'm a massive fan of Persona now, after buying P4G for my Vita and loving it. Quickly snapped up P3P and now eagerly awaiting P5.
I hope to enjoy the thread alongside you all.

Lmao, hey man at lest the two would be able to have engaging and intelligent conversations with each other. When ever I pair characters up (romantically or platonic), I figure it's best that both character have SOMETHING in common so they can actually talk to each other. Nothing worse than having an awkward silence cause you can't figure out what to say to another person. *shrugs*

My bet is on Naoto, for sure. Maybe as a brief appearance as a consultant to our "Sherlock" character in the game trying to nab the Phantom and his squad.

1) FeMC by far. Mainly because P3P is what I played first, but I found the dialogue choices of FeMC to have more impact then some kid who simply shrugs his shoulders and doesn't give a fuck about anything.
2) P4 Golden by far. It was the first JRPG I truly enjoyed, mainly because I could relate more to it. When I played P4G (Which was about a year and a half ago when I got my Vita) I didn't really like most JRPG's because they felt so distant and not very realistic. Yet here's this game where the main characters are high school kids, going through the grind of learning and hanging out, and having to juggle that with pretty much saving the world. I don't know why I didn't know of or played Persona up until that point.
3) See, I don't really have a favorite song, because I never really liked any of the soundtracks in P3 or 4. I don't know, I didn't really enjoy the songs constantly looping and pretty much forcing your way into your head. That being said, I probably enjoyed Backside of The TV the most.
4) Probably the epilogue of Golden. There's something about it, where you just think "This is the end." And you want to go right back into the world and experience it all over again.
5) Sukuna-Hikona, probably because of that sorta bandage looking thing it's got going on her legs.
6) Adachi's mainly because it subverts everything that you have been conditioned to believe about Social Links up to that point.
7) I could care less. It looks interesting, but I have better games to be buying. I'm only waiting for P5.

Yeah...like, I'd like the music more if it wasn't constantly being played. I prefer music having the impact of that one scene (Example, The epilogue credits in P4G) then having it constantly blast on whenever you're in the dungeons, or figuring clues to the case.

Wait, Ultimax has joke endings?

I think it was confused with P4U, in other words Arena.
So no, Ultimax doesn't have joke endings. Just a joke story.
And it's more of a Pagliacci kind of joke, anyway...
Hey you're back. Make sure never to recommend anime anymore.
Also 5/5/15 is coming so release date then.
in my dreams
REFERENCE UNDERSTOOD
Oh. Arena's joke ending just pushes the "Kanji likes Naoto and Naoto doesn't get it" thing again.
No getting yourself banned again, Flux. :|
You don't like EITHER soundtrack?! Not even "The Battle For Everyone's Souls" or "Heartful Cry" or "Nevermore"?!?
How many bans will it take you to steadily change your avatar to AA5 Phoenix?
Welcome back.
The only thing he's wrong about is people not wanting Yu's dick. Ultimax is basically: "Fuck you Yosuke fans, Labrys want's the King Dick, too" the game. And if Yu and Mitsuru smug laugh and smirk at each other one more time my GOD.
I do it all for you, babe

I thought Arena made pairings quite obvious? Yosuke and Labrys clearly have some
romantic thing
Kanji and Naoto too
You always seem to read too deep into things man.

No, not really. I know, I'm a heretic.
Yep. My bad. Apologies.
No. The writing there is as fan-fiction as it can get.

well I was just responding to that comment? i thought arena implied more canon pairings that EVER. Its more apparent than PQ. It makes me wonder how story progression in Dancing is different from just free mode dancing. Because story missions may mandate that ONLY X & Y can dance together for THIS MISSION, and this is resource to look into any indications of canon pairings. When a story dance mission has to involve a certain person and a certain someone and nobody else you know?

Glad to see you back.
Yea, but it's not. You are pushing too hard for pairings Birdie.
Welcome back Flux.
Statement still stands.
There are no canon pairings. Period. Kanji likes Naoto and Rise is flirty with Yu.

Ok, even if I let go,
is confirmed canon by ATLUS. Its in P4G and its in PQ which are all canon.
Am I correct?
Marie x P4MC

You mean the Ultimax's story is akin to fan-fiction quality...? Not sure if I understand correct
i see...
I'm struggling to get into Persona 4 Golden on my Vita, I've just rescued
but I don't enjoy the "Social" part of the game, I really only like the dungeon aspects and I honestly feel like I'm not playing the game right, I don't know what personas to fuse, I'm not sure if I should be trying to purchase weapons/armour for my characters or any of the finer details of the game.
As far as fusing personas goes I usually just fuse with whatever is going to make the highest level, the most recent one is "Jack frost" but I have no idea if he is any good or not...

Have you heard any of the music from P1,P1P, P2EP,IS? Do you like that music?
Just curious because one of the major things that made me go back to P4G after getting slightly burnt out on it was the music being stuck in my head.
Simple tips
-Yes buy weapons and armor for your characters. Sell materials in order to get money for it.
- Always be fusing. 90% a fused monster is better than what came before it as long as it is higher leveled. Sometimes you will want a persona for a specific situation but most of the time you won't know exactly what you need until you need it. Trying to keep a steady team of varied weakness and strengths isn't a bad idea.
- Social links are important to making your fused personas stronger and boosting your team members. Higher your social rank, the stronger the persona will be when you fuse it.

No, considering many have said that the PS1 era games are quite dated, I'm hesitant in pulling the trigger for them.
It's a beautiful place, thanks
Welp, I'm finally starting Persona 3 (FES) for the first time. I went to the bathroom just for fun and to explore a bit and I got a message saying my condition was now great.
Uh oh...it's one of THOSE games isn't it?
Is it difficult to manage my "condition"?
condition is just a general indicator of your protagonist's all-around health. you can be sick, you can be tired, you can be normal, you can be great.
great means you have a larger buffer before you get tired or sick, as well as gives you combat bonuses (crit and hit chance, i think).
normal is normal
tired is when you've over-exerted yourself by spending too long in tartarus, or occasionally while studying late at night you'll get stuck on your worst subject and end up tired as a result. your combat abilities are reduced as a result, and you want to cure your tiredness by taking it easy for the next day or two.
sick is what happens when you fail to take it easy while tired, or if you've REALLY over-exerted yourself in tartarus. it lasts longer and has a more dramatic effect on your character's abilities.
so basically, if your character is in rough shape, try to take it easy and don't go so hard in tartarus.

Staying up late too often (studying or dungeoning too long) can put you in 'tired' status. That can be fixed by a classroom nap or sleeping on time once in a while.
If you don't, you'll end up sick. You might get that fixed by visiting the nurse's office.

Is the chance of Marie showing up in P4D > 80%? Will she be playable?
Xenoflare

The question should be "why wouldn't Marie show up"
I'll be surprised if she isn't playable. She might even be a paid DLC.
Nah man, have you played Ultimax yet? Labrys spends like, her entire story mode trying to find a way to tell Yu she wants him. Like she even gets relationship advice from Ken of all people.
Everybody wants Senpai. Are you a Weather Goddess? Detective? Pop Star? High School Student? Avatar of Power? Killer Android? Super Agent CEO? Non-Canon? Death? Dead?
It doesn't matter. You want Senpai's collar.
