A male navigator to change it up would be very cool
Those videos are great actually , and some of them looks very smooth with the game HUD (notes) from i can see in Japanese gameplay videos.
Glad they give some of the DLC for free and ones i was really looking forward like the Featherman Suits and the Girl Swimsuits.
PD: Funny i personally dont want a navigator in Persona 5 , i mean the other games work just fine without it.

A female protagonist would be cool too - but they've shown they're not too big on "changing it up" in terms of characters. (Unfortunately)
Counting .99 as 1 you have to pay 63$ to get all the DLC (and get the swimsuit DLC in the first week for free).
I think I will get some of then, depending on how often I end up playing it. If I somehow going to enjoy it as much as EBA or Ouendan, then I guess I will get some of these fancy costumes.

Hashino's statements about P3/4 players feeling "right at home" lead me to believe they won't be shaking things up too much and we'll still have a navigator etc.
But on the other hand, it's been so many years in development I can understand if the team had a ton of new ideas and it ends up being a very different experience. It's all up in the air, considering we've seen like, 2 minutes of actual footage from the game.

So far, it looks to have everything a sequel should. It's the same type of game as Persona 3 and 4, but it looks to include a fair amount of new ideas while maybe changing some of the gameplay from the previous games without it being completely different (and hopefully are improvements).
The Dungeon navigation this time is a big change compared to the previous games
I think something so small like the gender of the navigator or be or not a navigator is something can be change.
But seriously , Storywise works but what other function have Rise or Fuuka besides telling you how many enemies left or the weakness of a enemy. (Something you do in other SMT games using a menu).

Rise breaks persona 4 golden

Yep,
Even though her buffs are random, but having power charge AND mind charge for the WHOLE PARTY is ridiculous.
Also free Samarecarm for senpai, and party wide invulnerability.
Sure, you can argue those are random and limited since it's tied to her S.link, but seriously she makes end game bosses trivial on top of a very easy game to begin with.

Vanilla was where the challenge was at.
yep did a fresh Very Hard run recently and Rise basically won boss fights for me by healing me regening my SP and giving me things like power charge and mind charge to my whole group.

I'd also like to see the ability to "lock" personas in your compendium from being overwritten like in Persona Q.

She's just one of many things that completely unbalances P4G in the players favor

I've always been kinda partial to the navigators - even with their ability to state the obvious - so I'm kinda hoping they keep navigators in, and just make them relevant without making them overpowered.

All this Metal Gear hype has made me happier about the way Atlus has been treating the marketing for P5. I'm incredibly excited for Phantom Pain, but I already know so much about it and have seen so much story and gameplay. It makes me excited to be able to go into P5 fresh without seeing much of it beforehand.
They might go on some crazy info blow-out over the next month or so, I dunno, but at least it will be easy to avoid until release at this point.

Yeah watch like 1-2 minutes of gameplay and maybe another 2-3 minutes in cutscenes ... for a game i really sure is going to be more than 30 hours long is really amazing and helps with hype.
Fun fact i started playing these games in 2012 , i watch the 16 minutes trailer for P3 after i beat the game and i cant believe they show almost everything ... i mean a lot of spoilers or mechanics without context , but still is kinda like "oh yeah i already see that in the trailer" if you play after watch that
I hate when they show some many things for games or movies...

Agreed - I really hope that release isn't too far off now, because I want to go in blind.
(I'll be fine with maybe knowing the party members from an Opening Video Trailer, but not much more than that.)

SEGA is opening their TGS website on September 10th. Atlus is mentioned on the teaser site, so who knows what'll happen with that.

As a newcomer to the series and limited knowledge on rpg tactics, it was not.
Thank god for save rotations.
I bet its the latter.
But it will most likely refine the difficulties so that it can be easier
after you do the hard parts
This makes me wonder how easy is gonna be Persona 5 ... easier as f*ck like P4 Golden / P3 Portable
or a little harder like P3 FES or P4.
No, but you might want someone in your ears telling you to watch your six when you're out at night, pulling a B&E.
It's a game about thieves. A navigator makes more sense here than P3 or 4.

And with that, I'm now imagining the 'hacker in the unmarked van' trope from more recent spy films. That could be cool.
I think the likeliest thing if there's a change at all is letting you 'choose' your navigator out of your group, so you'd have your regular party composition plus whoever on reserve.
EDIT: 'Hacker in unmarked van' all of a sudden makes me want a designated navigator, though. That's too perfect.

I think their take on that could be really cool, especially when you consider how SMT has already mixed demons and tech together. It's not even uncharted territory for them.

That's kinda how Fuuka is now that i think of it

Replace the word 'van' with 'limo' and thats exactly how she is in arena/ultimax.
But yeah, especially with what seems to be an emphasis of people on their phones/technology from one of the earlier P5 trailers, I can see some sort of 'tech specialist' being involved.
Choosing your own Navigator is definitely something I'd like to see in P5.

I had a dream that randomly featured characters from P4 last night. Me, Chie and Kanji were getting beaten up by someone (they weren't using their Personas) while Yukiko stood there crying. Marie turned up (she looked like PJ Harvey for some reason) and stopped the assailant by attacking him with a lightning bolt. I thanked her, and then realised that everyone had her face.
I wish I was making this up to try and be funny but this is an actual dream that I had.

Obviously the assailant was Atlus who is trying to beat the Persona 4 franchise (and the fans) into the ground, Marie had to appear and save the day, she's perfection after all.
This will probably be the plot of P4A three

Dungeons seem more complex, with stealth and platforming elements. They probably felt the need to provide some amount of guidance to the player because of these new elements which only reinforces the need for a navigator.
Just a guess.

Are party members considered spoilers? My friend has already started a P5 blackout, since she argues that knowing about late-joining party members beforehand spoils their subplots before joining.
Examples she gave:
Naoto -
Fang from FFXIII -
I can kind of see her point with Naoto, so does anyone agree with this reasoning?
Examples she gave:
Naoto -
For the first half of the game, she acts like a minor antagonist to the IT, but knowing she joins later allows you to not take this subplot seriously. Also, since you know she gains a persona, you can assume she'll be thrown into the tv eventually, and she's most likely not the killer.
For half the game she's presented as an antagonist working for the government, but knowing she joins the party later, you don't have to take her seriously either

I think she has a point, yeah.
Everything from official sources (trailers, web site, boxart, etc.) is not considered a spoiler.
We can't post things from official sources in this thread, anyways.
This isn't necessarily true and shouldn't be considered a rule.
Yeah, we basically can't post shit about P5 in here, but for everything new P5 related there is usually a separate thread.
?
The rules in the first post are pretty clearly defined. Don't embed any images beyond like basic character designs, and make sure you're spoiler tagging and clearly marking your plot points. Not really sure how that translates do "we basically can't post shit"
Mind you, by the time Persona 4 actually came out, Naoto's existence as a party member wasn't a secret anymore. She was on the game's boxart, and quite clearly shown as a playable party member on the back and in the second opening.
See my post below.

Interesting. Since I didn't find out about the Persona series until 2012, I was curious about how Naoto was handled pre-release.
Nevermind. Seems I jumped the gun slightly. At 13:41 the trailer does briefly show Naoto as a party member. So her existence was never considered a spoiler at all.

I'd say party members - as long as they're shown in promotional info for the game - are not spoilers.
However those who don't want to know anything about them, and want to go in knowing as little as possible, may want to tread carefully these next few months.
