Persona Community Thread |OT8| Coming Winter 2014

If you care, in western terms
an omnibus most commonly refers to a collection of an entire volume of comics. Green Lantern as written by Geoff Johns from 2005 to 2011 was collected into two omnibi. It just means we're in for a very very long story.
That's what I'm most familiar with, and that's why I asked, I didn't really get how that would explain how the story was, but I get it now, thanks to you and kiyoaki!

I need a clean/hd version of this.
Please.
 
All the images of exploring the town or hanging out with the party are putting a big grin on my face, hopefully next time we hear about P5 they talk about what they're doing with Social Links.

It's also nice to see Ryuji and Anne in something that isn't their uniform after seeing a bit of the protag out of uniform in PV3.

Great stuff in Famitsu, but it's just salt to the wounds.

"Here's the great information blowout you were waiting for. Now see you in 7 to 10 months!"

Well, at least we know what to call Ann now.

Curious to know about that screenshot from the magazine involving
Ganesha. There's a text box, but I can't tell if that's the persona talking.

Can someone make an avatar of Ryuji's face with the mask? I want to use it after the bet is over.
I can do it when I get home in about three hours.

It's Ganesha talking. Apparently it's the pre all out attack dialogue.

I only found scans for ants so it's difficult to read the text, but it seems like
you have to negotiate with personas now.

Not 100% sure either, but I think it's Ganesha who's talking. He's identified as "The Unlucky Elephant Prince" both in the upper left corner (不運のゾウ王子LV 58) and in the text box. He says "Y-You! What are you going to do?"

The menu choice on the left is between "All-out attack" (総攻撃) and "Break up encirclement" (包囲を解く).

I'm not sure if it's a story-related exceptional scene, an opening for negotiations, or just enemy banter during battle that comes up before every all-out attack.
 
Wow, the casino dungeon looks like it takes place in November, that's pretty late by P3 and P4 standards.
I'm guessing after this dungeon, the MC is surrounded and captured by the cops and is interrogated from that point on. (Going off of PV 1 and 2 here)

PV 03:
And then does that thing at the end of PV 03 where he looks like a goddamn supervillain that just caught you in his trap.

At this point, I don't think Yuusuke's design is a passing similarity. I think they're intentionally trying to make him visually reminiscent of Jun, which is hella intriguing.

Same sex relationships confirmed.
 
Never ditch Aigis. Ever.

I have never taken Aigis out of my party. EVER.



And regarding Aigis' use in battle, she's a really good team buffer. Actually, my team consists of
Aigis (buffs), Akihiko (debuffs) and Yukari (healing)

It's a super good combo, but it really relies on making everyone else support and you being the main damage dealer, with the others chipping in while they're waiting to re-cast buffs and debuffs. Especially if you grind up at
Monad
in the later game

I can one-shot (ending spoiler)
some of Nyx's phases right now
. I wonder what i can do if i go into NG+ and use the entire year to max my personas

Question about P4D

Will there be dual audio, or free DLC Japanese audio I can get from PSN? I preordered the game without thinking about it, and then I watched a couple trailers and forgot how much I prefer the Japanese voices.

>.<

Keeping the game either way. If it's region locked I'll just buy the Japanese copy when I'm in Japan.

Anyone translate those scans yet? I don't want any story info, just gameplay stuff. I think I heard some say
negotiation is out
.
 
Yuusuke? I was thinking he kinda looked like a Kaneko character; he really does look like Jun.

Persona Central's rundown of the info suggests that
his role is pretty important
, which would fit well with the Jun parallel. .

But yeah, the simple costume with a little flourish over the heart is Jun Style, all the way.

...Actually, when you think about it like that, doesn't that make this team seem kind of... familiar? Though I guess Ryuji isn't much like Eikichi since
his voice clips make it sound like no one pays attention to him when Eikichi is the opposite
.

what did the voice clips say exactly?

I almost think the dates we see in screenshots could still be BS filler dates.

I don't think there is dual audio, we got pre order/SE swag instead :V

Actually Yusuke is also sort of the opposite of Jun, at least as far as his speech is concerned. Yusuke has a very masculine speech style, has a deep voice, uses simple verb forms and even uses the sentence end particle "zo" which is predominantly used by men. Jun, however, usually uses the desumasu style and also has rather gentle voice. Both things indicate femininity in Japanese fiction.

If it's coming out next summer, I think the wait will be six months at the absolute longest.

Dungeon List + corresponding month

April:
Castle
May:
Art Museum
June:?
July:?
August:
Desert Town/ Pyramid
September:
Future-ish Looking area
October:?
November:
Casino
December: ?

Some of these may obviously bleed into other months.
 
I wonder if that subway operator in PV 01 with the whited-out eyes is someone whose heart was stolen.

I'm guessing the protagonists being directly responsible for something like that might be too dark, so either they are doing some truly nefarious shit or there's someone else running around with supernatural powers before the endgame.

PV3 shows what looks to be something happening on a train too. I bet that's related.

I'm trying to figure out where party members might fit in. Looks like the Castle will be where the Protagonist, Ryuji and Ann all awaken. plus we'll meet Morgana. Yusuke would be the Art museum and then somewhere between June-August we gain one new party member. I guess that means we're either getting six party members or getting a late addition like Naoto.

I can already tell Yusuke Kitagawa will be my favourite character, unless they have somebody even more awesome still under wraps.

I kind of want to switch to an Anne avatar, if I could find one that looks good, actually avatar-fied, and not just cut out.

But on the flipside, people would despair because I switched away from Aigis.... so ¯\_(&#12484;)_/¯

properly cutting things out is hard though, best not to bother and just stick with Aigis
