Princess Sophia: Too quiet
Princess Sophia: we need Dantis in here
Dantis entered chat.
Ace of Spades: so yea i turned on giant bomb
Ace of Spades: WHAT
Omi: LOL

PersonaGAF is magical.

I keep getting booted off Steam. Apparently it hates me. :/

There's a good dose of comedy in the game, but I enjoyed the seriousness, so YMMV. Experiencing a story mode through youtube really isn't indicative of much.

I guess I'll see when it comes out here. I can't imagine my views will change though, considering it's basically a visual novel.

I saw that, you went to offline. Everyone's being so quiet I was starting to wonder if I was having connection issues.

Yup, there I go offline. Blargh. STEAM STOP ACTING UP.

It's ridiculous that the iOS app for Stram doesn't support group chat. I'm always on mobile

Whoa. That art is awesome.

We'll probably never play Lord of Vermillion.

Not too sad about that

 

[Meia]

What is it and why is their awesome fanart of Aigis of it? @_@

No, seriously, that's probably the most badass fanart I've seen of her.

 

[Sophia]

That's not fanart. Aigis and Narukami are playable characters in Square Enix's Lord of Vermillion 2 in Japan.

It's not fanart. It's actual art from Soejima for Lord of Vermilion 2.

And Elizabeth!

 

[Squire]

That's alright.

We need Vanquish EX: Aigis Edition!

 

[Sophia]

And Elizabeth!

Yes yes, and Elizabeth.

 

[jello44]

That's alright.

What system is it on

OH SWEET JESUS WANT.

 

[johnsmith]

What system is it on

Arcade

 

[FluxWaveZ]

What system is it on

Lord of Vermillion Re: 2 is out for Japanese arcade machines near you.

 

[CrazyTank940]

Arcade

Lord of Vermillion Re: 2 is out for Japanese arcade machines near you.

Rats. I was hoping this would be some weird Vita/PS3 voodoo so I could see if importing would be within my interests.

I heard Elizabeth. I'll be on the next plane.

It's some card game.

 

[johnsmith]

Garage kit, unfortunately.

 

[buddha0991]

Garage kit, unfortunately.

I was really hoping she

would not have died, and instead, became a new party member with that bitchin' weapon of hers.

 

[jello44]

I hated her look, BUTTTTTT

Spoiler

She'd be a better party member than Ken, that's for sure

Then...play FES? I think it was FES, or might be P3P where there's a chance.

 

[Sophia]

That's not what he's asking, although what you're referring to is in both FES and Portable. =P

I hated her look, BUTTTTTT

Spoiler

She'd be a better party member than Ken, that's for sure

Spoiler

And then you realize that they share the same English voice actor...

 

[buddha0991]

Spoiler

both FES and P3P have the chance to resurrect her, but she doesn't remember anything and The Answer sort of states that she died so its not canon. Also, it doesn't make her a party member.

 

[CrazyTank940]

Spoiler

And then you realize that they share the same English voice actor...

Spoiler

My mind is now officially blown

 

[cj_iwakura]

No joke, way underutilized, just like Strega.

 

[buddha0991]

I tell you, one of my bigger disappointments in P3 was going from glorious, enjoyable villians in P2 to...the guys in P3.

 

[jello44]

Holy poop.

 

[Soma]

I always loved the design of Chidori's persona.

On that note, Takaya had a cool one as well:

 

[cj_iwakura]

I tell you, one of my bigger disappointments in P3 was going from glorious, enjoyable villians in P2 to...the guys in P3.

I liked Strega's concept a lot. The execution, not so much. Way more threatening than P4's villain.

 

[Tamanon]

Strega had great potential, but their introduction was way too late and they didn't have enough opportunities to interact with the protags. Only Chidori really got enough screen time, the other two needed more scheming.

I liked P4's villain way more than any in P3

Jin got totally screwed over.

 

[Sophia]

Well, on one hand, anything was going to be disappointing after the amazing cast of villains in P2, but Strega were really lackluster.

Spoiler

Ikutsuki on the other hand was a bit better, as was Ryoji as a tragic villain.

The first guy you mention and how quickly he shows up and is disposed of was one of the moments i almost quit the game.

 

[Jintor]

That's alright.

We need Vanquish EX: Aigis Edition!

Ok, Raiden v Aigis v Sam v Bayonetta

Classic Dante and New Dante racing missiles in the background

 

[Sophia]

The first guy you mention and how quickly he shows up and is disposed of was one of the moments i almost quit the game.

Yeah but

Spoiler

they couldn't hint at it TOO much you know? There was just enough hints that he knew more than he seemed.

On that note, Ken's voice acting seems so much more natural in the original Japanese. Megumi Ogata for the win!

 

[Jintor]

The first guy you mention and how quickly he shows up and is disposed of was one of the moments i almost quit the game.

Complete fucking waste.

All they needed to do was

Spoiler

to tie the fucker in with Jesus. He even looks the same! Just make him a shadow-self or some bullshit magitek explanation re: tartarus and bam, you've just fused two characters into one and solved a fifth of your pacing problems

 

[cj_iwakura]

I liked P4's villain way more than any in P3

Oh, I agree, he's better realized.

But he's about as threatening as a Pixie.



Strega actually felt menacing.

 

[Jintor]

If we're talking about P4's villain,

Spoiler

I really like that his philosophy and stuff is completely self-contradictory, utilises faulty logic, and is just generally has the strength of something made up by a child. And they call him out on it.

 

[buddha0991]

Oh, I agree, he's better realized.

But he's about as threatening as a Pixie.

I kind of prefer it that way really, its different I feel. Every other Persona villian has been threatening, no?

 

[cj_iwakura]

I kind of prefer it that way really, its different I feel. Every other Persona villian has been threatening, no?

They range from threatening to omnipotent to somewhat omnipotent but not really to a pushover.

 

[Sophia]

Oh, I agree, he's better realized.

But he's about as threatening as a Pixie.

This is one of the few areas where the Persona 4 anime actually outdid the game. He feels both realized and threatening in the finale.

 

[buddha0991]

As threatening as a Pixie you say?

I agree.

Spoiler

I somewhat wish he was the only villain. The Izanami business overcomplicates things to me.

 

[cj_iwakura]

As threatening as a Pixie you say?

Yep. Now put her up against my Shiva with Hassohappa and Bright Might.


That's P4's villain against endgame Narukami.

 

[Soma]

As threatening as a Pixie you say?

One of these days I'm gonna replay this without fusing her. ;_;

YES. They did some of that in Persona 4 Golden, too.

I love this pic so much. (P4 SPOILERS)
