Support NeoGAF

[Cannon_Fodder]

Right now, Amazon says my Take Your Heart edition is due for delivery tomorrow by 8 pm. Usually, when Amazon misses the delivery date they give me a small credit towards my next purchase. I certainly don't expect them too, but if I do get a credit out of this, it will make preordering Nier Automata a much more reasonable decision, haha.

 

[vaporeon]

I thought persona 5 was pushed back to april?

nope, Persona 5 is definitely coming out on February 14, 2017

 

[Murder. She Wrote]

I could've really used P5 tomorrow... now what do I do with my life?

Hang on for 6 weeks; it's going to be a bumpy ride

 

[DNAbro]

I can't believe Persona 5 is out right now for all of us to play

 

[A Dead Diehard]

Yakuza 0? It may not be high school, but it's an amazingly fun world.

No surprise to see what game won this vote... again.

Ah yes, the modern installment in the series all about bonds:

Mass Effect -_-

 

[Jintor]

i would play yakuza in high school

 

[Lunar15]

Somewhere, John Hardin is eating a fistful of candy hearts that just say "Winter 2014" on them.

 

[muteki]

Amazon finally realized my P5 pre order isn't coming out today.

 

[Olengie]

Happy Heartbreaker Day 💔💔

Huh, Hardin's leaving.

Does he get to keep the atlusprime GAF account?

 

[Setsu00]

Huh, Hardin's leaving.

Does he get to keep the atlusprime GAF account?

If I recall correctly, he inherited it from his predecessor, so I guess it'll go to the next PR manager.

Hardin leaving bums me out almost as much as Hashino's departure...

 

[barybll]

Hardin got enough of all the P5 ruse cruise

A shame, now who will I blame for all the atlus shenanigans?

 

[Mediking]

I wish Hardin the best....

Also looking forward to him sharing stories about his job now that he has no restraints.

that's not how it works lol

 

[Makio]

Huh, Hardin's leaving.

For some weird reason i never stand him everytime he appears in videos and such idk why , but he do a great job all these years and always been the "face" of Atlus USA for me

Spoiler

until they reveal the next PR

Best of luck and thanks for everything.

 

[Funyarinpa]

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Persona 5 delays are for and why they are here, they will instantly disappear and be replaced by a date even more distant and unreachable.

There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

 

[Cannon_Fodder]

I'm more disheartened about Hardin leaving than I am about not playing P5 today. He was a great PR guy.

I'm probably overstating it, but it seems like it's been a LONG time since any good news came out of Atlus USA.

 

[Lunar15]

Legit shook.

IMO you can make a pretty educated guess what the February -> April delay was.

Aww

Gonna miss him, I really liked him.

 

[Lynx_7]

Hardin is a nice dude and I wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors. I hope he still hangs out here on Neogaf.

Can we get a replacement called Jack Softin? He could be just like Hardin, except every time he has to announce a delay he'd cry a lot.

I'm not sure whether or not that would Softin the blow...

Spoiler

I'mma go sit over here for a bit. :/

[MSMrRound]

John's departure took me by surprise as well

I really like the guy and his interaction with the community and I think he's been one of the better PR guys I have seen.

All the best at wherever you find yourself at next!

(Also, totally gonna be calling the new PR person Not-Hardin for some time till we hopefully get warmed up to him or her)

Goddammit lol.

I just ordered the P5 OST and the artbook and only realized a couple of moments later that I won't be able to actually look at the artbook until after the game is finally released. I'm terrible at spending money.

don't worry, i did the same thing...the first 25 pages or so of the book are safe though, since it's all just key/promotional art

the OST is great too but man i wish the songs played longer. i extended a few of them myself but some are pretty hard to loop

 

[Lunar15]

It honestly feels like just yesterday that Aram Jabbari left. I didn't think they could get anyone who could fill those shoes, but they sure did.

I can keep it until you play the game if you want ;P

 

[Mediking]

??? Hardin is still restricted by NDA even after he left? Why? Shouldn't he be free to share stories?

No more memes...:_;

The memes won't die!

....

I think.

Nah, I think I'm good ;P.

You don't know a lot about about contracts, do you?

I'm totally joking! Heck, I'm in a NDA too!!!

Even if he weren't bound by NDA, it's still not a great look to share the inner workings of any of your previous employers, good or bad, especially just after leaving.

It's always hard to tell with you.

It's time to stop.

Yeah, makes you look unappealing to future employers. Gives the impression that their secrets aren't safe with you.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Katsura Hashino will be on the next episode of toco toco. Should be great. It's a YouTube show about Japanese creators.

I don't really expect Hardin to share any real stories, guys.... Every now and then my humor is trash on GAF.

Spoiler

He's gonna PM me stories anyway! Muhahahahah

That's awesome! When will that episode come out?

Edit: Ah, should be out in two weeks.

Not heard of them before, but looking at their channel, seems like an interesting show. Looking forward to that.

Out 1st March.

 

[sackboy2197]

Here's a link to the channel for anyone who might be interested. They make really good videos about many different people and they're always very interesting. Pretty sure I stumbled upon this channel thanks to the video with Toyama.

 

[Mediking]

I see that Yakuza 0 was mentioned earlier in this thread and I gotta admit... Yakuza 0 crosses into territory that I really wanted Persona to do one day. Yakuza 0 does this really charming thing of having a mini animation scene of whoever the main character is doing something right before the start of a minigame or side activity. It never gets old. Like right before Kiryu starts baseball practice, a little animation scene shows him getting ready to swing the bat and he looks super determined. It's hecka charming and awesome.

It kinda reminds me of how relaxed and chill Minato looked whenever he was on the computer talking to Maya in P3.

 

[Dragon1893]

Anyone have a hi-res version of this?

Thanks!

Sad to hear about Hardin, curious to see where he's heading.
Let's hope his replacement is just as awesome.
