y'know, after seeing some of the SMT nerds response to P5's announcement, I can say P1/P2 fans are some of the saltiest most butthurt people I have ever seen.
So I think P2 IS and EP are the best persona games and I'm curious as to why other P2 fans are upset with P5?

because social links.

I was more referring to how everyone is like "LET'S HOPE ITS NOT P3 OR P4 AGAIN!!!!" cuz god forbid they play a streamlined game.

I'd switch your girl and boy roles personally
That sounds like a legit theory
Big heists usually split up roles so yeah could totally see that happening

Also Funny Pictures ahoy

The age of P4 is finally over.

All hail our new Phantom-milking overlords.
 
at least the era of P4 is going out

WISS AH BAHNG! WOW!

his swag is pure smooth jazz.
 
Yo...that Igor...I wanna party with that dude...
 
I mean, for the last 3 P4 games we got:

a great dungeon crawler
a hype ass fighter
and P4 is passing the torch with a sad face or a tear in it's eye
it's dancing until the very end.

plus who knows, we might see everyone together again.
 
I honestly just wanna see like
an older someone just being happy
anyone from the previous games
except junpei
he's still a loser

Eh. I won't say I was completely fine with social links but P3 made them interesting enough so I went with them. I would still say that having character progression tied to a mechanic like social links kind of threw off the storytelling of the persona games. The party's never felt as close as they did in P2 but it was also due to other factors (like the fool arcana, the worst idea in the persona series)

I don't think i follow.

like, you mean how the Fool Arcana takes it's time throughout P3 and P4 to develop or is there something in P2 I don't know about.
I mean I haven't played it in a while but still.
 
you know what really really sucks
Junpei_P4AU_Prototypes.jpg
ALL OF THE AMAZING DIRECTIONS THAT THEY COULD HAVE TAKEN JUNPEI IN
AND ALL WE GET IS A FUCKING LITTLE LEAGUE COACH
 
how can you tell what the directions even are?
they're too small!
 
What is this, a post for Ken
Junpei confirmed so pitiable even his own potential puts itself down

This hurts on the "Rise could have used whips and chains" level
Like actually why not ANYTHING ELSE ON THAT CONCEPT SHEET

you know what? I'm glad we got stuff that wasn't other things from the concept art. also, I like the idol we got for Rise.

remember when Kanji was planned to be a shitty Kuwabara clone and then they made him good?
 
god I would have loved sukeban Rise
idol Rise was fine until they ruined her but MAN sukeban Rise would have been hype as fuck
then they doubled messed her up by making her support
 
Yeah I guess
But chains and whips excite me man
It's not like I'm completely disappointed just not happy cause we don't have what we could have had
How to explain it
Like when you pick Path A but you lay awake at night wondering about Path B
You're fine where you are but WHAT IF
 
well, somebody has to be a navigator in those games.
I don't see how making her the navigator was a bad thing.

I try not to worry about that stuff.
unless it's toku. but that's another story.
 
Still think we need actual cameos from P2 and maybe P1. I can see so many opportunities for Katsuya in P5, and it feels glorious.
 
Oh she was a perf navi
Cheerful and supportive in nature as well

Well you got whips and pigtails with Anne/Anzu/whatever in this game.

see? you personerds are getting what you want.
 
i uh
never really saw the need for the navigators in P3 and P4
i thought it was a large dumb mechanic that could have been excised with little issue or impact
 
Nothing tops beat people senseless with a chair. C'mon, Beowulf? Kanji?

Oh wait we are I totally forgot
All's well that ends well
initiate gratuitous whip cracking

 
So, there's a possibility that the actual party is based on the 7 deadly sins...and the cat...I couldn't hazard a guess at who is who, anyone wanna take a stab at it?
 
Naruto reeks of pride bruh
I haven't heard a word out of his mouth but the way he moves and looks just radiates "I'm better than you"
