Shin Megami Tensei and Persona

Yu does his accumulations in the bedroom. :3

Yu: "Look Chie/Yukiko/Rise/Naoto (pick one) - you either put out or you don't get a super awesome Persona. What's it gonna be then? You want us all to die in the TV world because you were the only without a awakened Persona?"
Chie/Yukiko/Rise/Naoto (pick one): "What do you mean 'the only one'?"
Yu: Oh shit! Said to much... *jumps off window* I REGRET NOTHING!

I was expecting Yu's response to be calm down, oh well this is also good.
 
I've definitely seen the term "Clean Hit!" appear sometimes when Junpei hits with his bat in some P4U2 gameplay. He might have that.

Also, some important news: PerShoNa will become playable in P4U2 on December 19th, and some new artwork has been revealed on the P3 movie website. I'll let it speak for itself.

December 19th is my birthday.

So I get PerSHOna as my present?

Too bad I can't play with it until next year.
 
so Junpei is Annie now?
 
Junpei of the Stars.
 
Junpei goes to the umpire and complains it was a ball?
 
Can you strike out as Junpei?
What happens then?
the fireball goes behind him. its good for an opponent trying to get around him when he starts the move

He goes Supernova and explodes.
 
So if you miss you'll get fucked over.
it hits behind him. meaning if there is someone behind junpei, it will hit the opponent.
 
I thought the stars are where he sends his foes, not where he comes from.
 
Annie is popular in the Persona world as well.

Well the game is developed by Arksys which has made skullgirls references in the past, ie Panzerfaust in the new Guilty Gear

I'm pretty sure potemkinfaust is a coincidence.
 
Isn't Faust a doctor or something, though? Hm...then again those crosses are mighty suspicious...
 
So guys, question.
Gonna get the Glasses DLC again? Just in case you nee to rebuy them.

Gonna buy it again if I have to for the sweet Junpei and Sho shades, but you know what I really want for every character that would REALLY seal the deal for me?

He is. As the story progressed, he kinda went from deranged serial killer to quirky doctor with a troubled past.
When his Xrd design was revealed, I jokingly said it's a nod to Valentine but maybe they were added so those with smaller attention spans can tell that he's supposed to be a doctor.


Anyway, as for the DLC - assuming I don't have to wait a whole year to get the game (the one thing I'm happy about SEGA taking Atlus) - it depends on the price. If I had caved in and bought P4A, I would have got navigator Fuuka (because Mamiko Noto) though.
 
The Navigators were unlocks.
Except you apparently had to beat Score Attack mode.
But forget about that.

Yeah I've only gotten to Yu on Score Attack with Elizabeth. And just barely. I said "screw it" and brought the navigator DLC. I'll probably beat it one day though.

Whose fucking idea was it to give Yukiko infinite Fire Break mode and start of the round Lv. 8 Fire Boost I mean are you shitting me
 
a lot of SG references in guilty gear. . .
 
Score Attack mode isn't necessarily hard, but it's annoying. You fight the opponent very differently then you would a human.

You have to know what the score attack type of opponent can do that is dangerous then avoid it (Yukiko for example has multi-fan throw, max level flames, unblockable flames, etc) and adjust to what the AI patterns would normally do.

For example, Score Attack Kanji can kill you in two command grabs (depending on how much health you have), but the AI has a pattern that would often result him to do random Dive Grabs on neutral so you can adjust, bait them, punish, rinse/repeat.

If you win the first round then the match difficulty is downhill from their because in the 2nd round you would go for the gold burst (AI rarely blocks it) and go for the IK (Again AI rarely blocks it, I can literally use a Myriad of Truths from full screen and it would still connect as long as I didn't activate during opponent mid-jump).

That said, still not worth the effort/time involved for cosmetics. Only unlocked the Teddie/Mitsuru Navigators and just bought the rest.
 
What satanic mad man made THAT an Achievement?!

The exact same one who put the content the achievement unlocks in the DLC store too. :P

Credit to them on making the glasses and palette choices well worth it though.

Score Attack Kanji with Elizabeth was a NIGHTMARE. But yeah, I see what you mean with baiting and stuff. It's just I would flub something out of panic and get command grabbed for 80% of my precious health (usually killing me if I had got poked by him a few times before hand).

Speaking of which, how do you guys think the Score Attack versions of Yukari, Junpei, Sho and PerSHOna and Adachi will go? I'm thinking unblockable arrows, 100% clean hit chance on the bat, etc.
 
It's the little touches I liked, like Yukiko's Chidori palette having a Medea colored Persona. Or Jack Frost Teddie having a Pyro Jack pumpkin persona.
 
Yeah, all things considered I'll just buy them.
I mean I'll sure as fuck try to beat Score Attack.
But forget about it if I need to beat it as ALL(!) characters.

Eh, still not as bad as the sadist in CP that wants you to get unlimiteds by going though Unlimited Mars mode...


I'm still enjoying the fact that Persona 4 Dancing all Night is cannon to the P4 story

Apparently it takes place after P4A Ultimax

Also seems as though all the male characters so far are stuck in the disco days, but Yu's pose somehow makes me want to get the game more.

If Dancing All Night takes after Ultimax, I EXPECT Labrys to be in the game. I want to dance as the ruby-eyed, silver-haired, moe as FUCK goddess.
