I have a feeling some of them will be in game things. Like short, focused gameplay clips, perhaps.

Yeah, the fact that one of them is the Morganamobile means most of them will be pretty minor gameplay things. I could see them having a bit about Goro as well. Perhaps his persona.

And that's cool. Announcements don't always have to be huge things. I don't think people around here get their hopes TOO high each time, maybe on Discussion. All of the events have been largely enjoyable.

However, I'm at the point where I really don't want to hear anymore.

Waiting till Feb 2017 is rough. Staying hype is hard... this situation kinda reminds me of Xenoblade Chronicles X where XCX was my most anticipated... got delayed a few times... and when I finally played the game... it was not what I hoped.

BUT! Atlus' quality is Atlus' quality.

We're now at a point where the wait for Persona 5 from release to localization is twice as long as the wait for it actually coming out.

I'm pretty sure you're serious and am incredibly saddened.

She's Persona 2: Eternal Punishment's protagonist. P3's is a reference.

Whoa! Hold on!!!! Lemme get this straight.... Persona 3 Portable was NOT the first time there was a female lead in a Persona game? PERSONA 2 had a female lead?! Wow! Okay, that's cool! I had no idea! Please don't beat me up, Persona community!!!

Now is Maya....?

As I said, no relation. It's a reference to Persona 2.

like just do some reading on a wiki dude. You obviously like Persona so I'm surprised you haven't done any research into the other games.

Yeah, true... I do plan on playing Persona in its early life. I just got a few other games to finish first. :/

It's a localization change too. In the Japanese version it's Devil Busters Online with N-Jima rather than Tatsuya and Y-Ko rather than Maya.

Never-before-mentioned: Innocent Sin Online also starts with a message from Phil, a reference to Philemon, and it's instead STEVEN in Devil Busters Online.

Are there any more quirky Persona localization facts?

The PS1 version of Persona 1 is legendary as an example of how not to localize a game. They made all the characters caucasian (barring Yukino so she could be the token asian character) and even turned one character into a black person.

Contrast this with how Persona 4 openly uses honorifics and it's a huge case of whiplash.

Gotta admit... really hoping Ryuji is more Junpei than Yosuke. Then again... I didn't start to really like Yosuke's character until the last arcs of the game.

It's funny how Yu reminds me of a guy from Tokyo Ghoul in that image...

Vincent from Catherine is still in the game, right? I wonder if...
Ann is related to Catherine....
And I forget the guy's name but there's a guy in Catherine who looks like he just auctioned to be the lead guy for a Persona game.

There's a guy who looks like Vincent in P3P, but that was just a lookalike for promotional purposes.

Ann being related to Catherine is unlikely. I'm thinking her white grandparent was an American WW2 soldier, myself.

And you mean "auditioned", but I still don't know who you're talking about.

Oh!!!! Ah, I saw a video about Catherine a few days ago and I remembered that Vincent was seen in a trailer for P5. Haha then I thought that Catherine and Ann kinda look similar. Sorry if I wasn't clear Dantis.

Hahaha my bad. I'm talking about Jonathan Ariga from Catherine. This guy.... I'm on mobile so hopefully the image works. He looks like he's auditioning to be on Persona.

Vincent is not in P5 as far as we know. P5's MC resembles him sightly, but that's about it. Catherine takes place in a separate universe.

Do you guys think that there should be a Persona Kart game? I think the Persona is rife with opportunity to make an awesome kart racing game, with using Persona as power ups, while having characters from all the games as racers.

Sure. We'll get a spinoff where each person's Persona gets a vehicle form aside from Makoto and Futaba who already have one.

That's what's being said now until he shows up as a secret boss as
king of hell with Catherine support.
