[A Dead Diehard]

I remember when I'd be chopping at the bits for every single piece of info.

Now I'm just, hey, where's the game.

What we need is a game we can rely on. One that won't promise the moon then run out on us.

We're kindred spirits, you and I.

 

[TurnipFritters]

i think it's great that one of the first things announced about smt4f was the release date.

 

[arue]

Agree. I think I'm more hyped for SMT4F than P5 at the moment.

But of course it'd be reversed once there is even a slight news of Persona 5.

I'm honestly at the point where I don't care about Persona 5.

I'll go fanboy when we're closer to release date, but no point in getting hyped for something that can only seem to be reliably delayed.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

I think the Persona 4 The Golden Animation re-broadcast is significant in relation to the upcoming Persona 5 anime and/or the anniversary event.

You're not the real arue. What did you do to the real arue!

 

[A Dead Diehard]

You're not the real arue. What did you do to the real arue!

More like one Arue and one...
awesome Arue.

 

[Modest Mauser]

Is this Persona 5 anime business an anime anime or just like a promotional OVA thing?

 

[Zolo]

Full 26-episode anime leading up to the release of the game.

SMT4 is a great game.

Just a promotional OVA as far as I know. I'm guessing it'll be done like the Tales series.

 

[PK Gaming]

SMT4 is a great game.

What's with Atlus and 4s?

Persona 4, Shin Megami Tensei 4, Etrian Oddysey 4...

All really, really good games

 

[STG]

Here you go.
IZANAGI TOO STRONK

Ah thank you! That it exactly the one I was looking for.

 

[yuuki]

It would be almost an impossibility for new Persona 5 content to be featured at something like The Game Awards.

well they could atleast show the trailer with official eng sub for the first time.

 

[Ludger Kresnik]

If we're getting anything P5 this year, it'll be at PSX and it'll be part of a sizzle reel.

 

[CrimsonFist]

Can confirm. It won't be at PSX in any way. Neither ATLUS or SEGA are exhibiting, I'm not going, nothing is happening for us at PSX.

Maybe they're holding off on their "5" installments cause they know they can't count to 6.

 

[Jintor]

here's the thing about info:

info by itself doesn't really matter much until you get your hands on the full game

that's the mantra i repeat to myself whenever i'm in danger of becoming excited about the future

 

[CrimsonFist]

Maybe they're holding off on their "5" installments cause they know they can't count to 6.

Atlus counting:

1, 2, 9, 3, 4, 4,

 

[Setsu00]

Europe (or at least Germany) gets the first Persona 3 movie. And it doesn't even cost you a fortune like in the US or Japan! The second one will seemingly be shown in movie theaters early next year.

And it's dubbed in German!

 

[Sölf]

And it's dubbed in German!

And only has geman subtitles.

 

[Setsu00]

The German dub is... well, different. I don't like it. There's already a clip floating around if you want to see it.

Just launch the damn game.

 

[Lusankya]

Do you have a link? I can't seem to find it.

The German description on amazon.de is also pretty funny:

"[....] Why is Yuuki able to summon the Persona? Where are the Shadows coming from? And how can you break this nightly cycle for good?"

"[...] Warum ist Yuuki in der Lage das Persona zu beschwören? Woher kommen die Shadows? Und wie kann man diesen nächtlichen Kreislauf endgültig durchbrechen?"

Here you go.

It's too close to the Japanese script if you ask me and the acting is subpar. Akihiko's voice is especially bad.

 

[Sophia]

Feels like they're speaking on top of the sound effects in that clip. Like they're in a wind tunnel or hangar and everything else is going on just right outside.

Yukari doesn't sound bad, however.

Yeah, it's pretty rough. They're still working on the mixing.

Well, it says on top "Unbearbeitetes Rohmaterial", so it is unedited material.

Ooh, that explains it.

I'm not fluent in German at all, but their Fuuka does seem a little bit better than the original English Fuuka. Actually sounds fairly close to Mamiko Noto.

 

[Setsu00]

is it that bad?

It's not my cup of tea, but I appreciate that someone believes that Persona is profitable enough in Germany to bring the films over. I'm probably going to buy them.

The actual voices are fine (except for Akihiko and Shinjiro), but the acting is off.

 

[MudoSkills]

Potentially stupid P4D question, how the hell do you get the gold/black medals for scratch notes? None of the songs have anywhere near enough notes for it.

Also, I thought I would have turned voices off during the songs, but the things they say are so hilarious I never have. Playing this has me 100% convinced that the intended love interest for Yu in P4 is Yosuke.

You don't have to hit scratch notes for them, it's just the number of times you scratch in total, so just do one of the longer songs on easy and mash the sticks the whole time.

 

[MudoSkills]

Well that sure sounds fun.

I'm still going to do it though.

 

[A Dead Diehard]

I found some interesting theorizing on P5's heroes and thought I should share it.
Made me go up from totally indifferent, at least.

They noticed a lot of the same things I did, most importantly that with the information thus far, it feels like the protagonists are acting on the plot rather than reacting to it.

I'm still curious about the circumstances that allow them to act in the first place.

This was an interesting read. It'd be interesting to go back to this once Persona 5 is actually out and see how close this was.

Several times I've been so close to buying a damn Vita for P4G. Today I've been tempted to buy a discounted PSTV, but I had a look at the library and literally the only thing I'd want for it is P4G.

Please Atlus, just release it on PS4 or PC.

If you aren't super strapped for cash, I'd say take the plunge on a PSTV since they're really cheap.

Just think of it as a super special collector's edition of P4G that comes with its own dedicated system. It's like an arcade cabinet, only... not.

It's heavily discounted here in Sweden at the moment, but still not cheap enough for me. If it drops more I'll go for it.

An arcade cabinet that also plays PSP games.
EDIT:

That's right, you also get access to classics such as Everybody's Stress Buster and Dead or Alive Paradise.

I was thinking more Dissidia and P3P, but hey. To each their own. :/

This is what i used, just follow the suggested videos for the rest of the parts. I'll see if there's a playlist

EDIT= There, updated the link, should now be the playlist of all the parts

Thanks!

Given P4G's critical acclaim, I'm surprised Atlus hasn't released it on PS4 as a way to build up the fanbase. There seem to be a lot of PS4/Vita games now (SOA, Digimon, World of FF) so it shouldn't be too tough to do.

It would probably be a western-only port, since it most likely wouldn't do amazingly on PS4 in Japan.

There's some precedent with Ultimax 360 (PS3 exclusive in Japan), though Vita to PS4 is probably a bit more complex.

And give up the only way Sony will get people to buy the rest of the PS TVs they have sitting around?

 

[Green Mamba]

Atlus is in the business of selling Persona, not Playstations.

 

[Weiss]

Between SMT4 Final and Persona 5 next year, is there any time to hawk more Persona?

Spoiler

what am i saying of course there is
