Well, if going by his IV Apolypse comparison, this would reuse a LOT of content and assets from Persona V, just with a new story playing through that, so it's not quite a fully new entry either.

Still, yeah, it is starting to seem like that might be the case which seems good since Persona V was already too big. I didn't see how they'd be able to expand it even further.

I’ll get Persona 5 Quarter Pounder whether it’s worth while or not

There, that's everything relevant. Anything else is just speculation with no basis.

Smash datamine

Idk why, but I keep picturing her as a crazy conspiracy theorist with a youtube channel where she just keeps shit talking the PT until it gets big enough that akechi notices her

I just picture her in a high pitched girly voice going:
>*INHALES* THE PHANTOM THIEVES ARE A MODERN DAY PLAGUE ON SOCIETY AND NEED TO BE STOPPED BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY! ANYWAY, DON'T FORGET TO SUBSCRIBE! TOODLES!"

I don't see how Poniko being a protagonist somehow erases Joker and the PT.

I just need to know should I play P5 right now or wait until we find out wtf this shit is? I already know spoilers so don't bother.

The palaces in Royal-chan's game will be based off the phantom thieves.

I'd wait on playing P5 until we know whether or not P5R is an expanded re-release or something else.

Were any of the P5 characters first years? Futaba doesn't even go to school so she doesn't count.

Didn't it specify the character had a ponytail? That doesn't really fit any of the female thieves.

if you already know spoilers then you might as well just wait for whatever this is

Flynn is nowhere near as recognizable with the gaming public as Joker is, don't be retarded.

Who else could be a party member?

Shinya

That post is misinformation.

No.
Honestly If it's retread with aeon SL or FeMC, how will the rewrites look like

Prediction-
It will be like Lion King 1/2, different palaces (or maybe the same knee, revised) with this new character trying to challenge the morality of both Akechi and the phantkm theives and trying to find balance. Heavy political themes, with a Drumpf parody palace.

The exclusive OVA for dvd covers the Valentine event with the description confirming he went the harem route.

Why?

Yeah I'm thinkign he's in

Attached: 2.png (512x512, 104K)

He's not arguing popularity dumbass, in IV Apocalypse the game is set as a what-if scenario following Nanashi while Flynn from vanilla IV is still around.
A setup like this could work in P5 and wouldn't ruin shit.

How could he go harem route when he didn't max any of the confidants?

Female version of fat politician when

I agree that she'll probably be the third option where people help themselves, opposing Akechi and the PT, but she'll probably just be a Slink

It blatantly ignores how it could potentially be an Olimar/Alph situation. Male Black Joker can have the first four slots and Female Red Joker can have the last four slots.

In all fairness it would make more sense to have her be younger, because that allows more flexibility with male confidants unless you want to be banging the congressman or something.

Beats the hell outta me m8.

No, she backed shido when the cops came

So what happens if she turns out to be Marie 2.0?

Was Atlus the Grandmaster of announcement of announcement thing? I felt like they started this trend.

Then no one will really care besides those who bought a vita for the golden

I can't wait to see A-1 fuck up one more time

Not much. It'd be disappointing, but it wouldn't exactly be surprising.

I'll be surprised since everything points to her either being FeMC or having her own story.

I am not buying this game if that's what this is. I have absolutely zero interest in a game with P5 in the title that doesn't even focus on the characters that I care about.

>Datamines
>Dubious
What did he mean by this?

I'm the opposite. I'd much rather have a new game than a rehash with minor additions to the original release.

Read the thread.

That's why I said focus. Them just showing up is not good enough for me. If they're not the main characters like they were in P5 then I'm not buying this game.

*show up

don't listen to P5R is at least, at the very minimum, another year from release. just buy p5 on sale for $30

No.

Do you happen to have source on the original pic? Or is it made like that

Absolutely. The Smash Bros datamine found out that Jack's stage is Mementos. All the stat attributes fit Joker too.

>Calling misinformation when you link to pure speculation.
No no no, fuck YOU.

It is misinformation when it blatantly ignores how costumes work in Smash Bros. It's bullshit and doesn't add anything to the conversation.

>Kaneshiro kidnaps Makoto and turns her into a sex slave
To be fair that's because Makoto was a dumbass.

Alright, how is it misinformation? He seems to have done a deep dive on the files. Do you know something about how Smash costumes work that contradicts him?

Same here. I have no interest in a P5 game that doesn't focus on the phantom thieves.

Okay, that sounds pretty definitive. So if I understand it right, "Jane" being the latter half of the costumes rather than every other would imply she's a different character instead of a gender flip, yeah? Maybe this really is an Apocalypse-style sequel then.

Should I keep playing P5? Just beat Kamoshida. Don't really want to invest more time if The Royal is an updated re-release. Though if the new girl is a feMC I would be willing to replay with her.

Olimar/Alph's costumes are set up so that Olimar is the first four while Alph is the last four. And we now know that this new girl isn't just a genderswapped Joker, since she's in a different year. All the examples he was using were of characters that are simple genderswaps of each other instead of considering an Olimar/Alph scenario.

The only thing I really want is for the Confidants to be fully voiced.
Playable Futaba would be a nice plus though.

well literally no one knows what this will be, so either keep playing or wait a month for more info. But if you haven't been spoiled then get out now before you are.

You're understanding it correctly. This new color is associated with the color red. There are two jokers in a deck, one black and one red. She could still be FeMC but a new story that focuses on Goro seems highly likely.

More like it's the P5 equivalent of P4 Golden, P3 FES, and DEEP Strange Journey. The female voice is probably just the new Marie or SPESS Yukiko.

High, but there's speculation going around that Jane herself might be another DLC character that confused dataminers due to file structure.

Palindrome digits of wisdom

This. Just go in with the lowest expectations possible, then you have a decent chance of being pleasantly surprised when it's something cool.

Don't worry, I already expect to be disappointed.

P5R probably won't release for a few months. Even then, you'll have like a 7 month gap for the english verson. So early 2020 most likely, I'd just play it nos

It's going to be Royal, Akechi, and new people.

You can have hopes for what a ideal situation would be while still having low expectations regarding what will actually occur you know.

I'd say it is probably a Winter-19 at the earliest, even if they complete it earlier they would probably hold for the Holiday sales so they can get into that there Christmas Gift money..

>You can have hopes for what a ideal situation would be while still having low expectations regarding what will actually occur you know.
Every FeMC idea in here is a terrible idea that throws out the cast and dynamics of P5 so these faggots can have another waifu to jerk off to.

oof

Alternate side story is the best option. You've already played Persona 5.

That might mean she's playable, but I don't see them redoing so much in the game for a FeMC. A new scenario with a female protagonist, I can see.

> that there Christmas Gift money..

Assuming Royal-chan is a new protagonist, and not just a Joker gender swap, what would the romance options look like? I can't imagine most male players would want to romance guys, regardless of the player character's gender. Are we in for a yuri fest?

>It's a persona battle royale game

It's pretty much this. It'd be retarded to tell the same story and have to go through the hassle of adding dialogue for EVERYONE in an old game while rewriting old dialogue to change pronouns and make things make sense

It's already confirmed to be an RPG.

>just an IF game
IF is a shit company, why are they handling Atlus games?

I wouldn't be surprised if we some female options. I think this game will be targeted to fujos.

So was falllout 76.

It's supposed to be a fun OVA since people really had fun with the harem route Valentine's bit and the resulting conflict from it.

I'm loving it, it's just like the threads before the first trailer where people and news outlets were swearing up and down that Joker in Smash was PROOF the enhanced port would be on Switch and then we made fun of them for three straight days.

Apocalypse wasn't an alternative story. It is canon.

I would kill for that being the case, the story is outright horrible and a rewrite is what it needs, but that's having too much faith in Atlus.

Fujos don't want girls, they want boys love. If it was for them, it'd be a game about Akechi.

You are retarded.

That's the thing with ideals, people have different ones, most of them awful because they ain't mine.

If they do that i'd assume same as P3P with it being intended for Fujos and therefore boys with maybe CLOSE FEMALE FRIENDSHIP. Goro would be a no brainer for one.

Attached: 1317211266750.jpg (950x718, 704K)

Fuck you, the best option is for her to join the team as a second Wild Card so that you get to experiment around with a party member with more options.
It's obvious she's being set up as the third point in the Joker vs Akechi/Arsene vs Sherlock dynamic. Irene Adler, anyone?

KILL YOUR LINKS LASSIE

It's likely that this game will focus on Akechi, though. A fujo's wet dream where they can self insert into the new female character and save their husbando. Still, wouldn't be too surprising for there to be a few female options for the non-fujos.

>and you all are going to lap it up anyway
Hell yeah I will motherfucker, I'm a filthy slut for Persona

Atlus btfo's everyone by having Royal-chan not be a playable character but also making her Akechi's girlfriend that you steal away from him, confirming he's not a faggot and shitting on him all at once.

How can people even consider this? 5, like 4, is clearly designed around a male protagonist. Just consider love interests. Joker has 9 and that doesn't even include Caroline & Justine/Lavenza. The dating pool for a female protagonist is far more shallow and no way they're turn a bunch of female characters gay to make up for it.

honestly, i'll be even more hyped for p5r if it turns out to be the eternal punishment to p5's innocent sin.
every persona re-release ever has done more than just change one character and call it a day, but keep deluding yourself that p5r won't make any substantial changes.

>She’s in 1st grade
Pwersonah!

It's going to be Golden/FES, you know it will. They've set a standard for such already and Eternal Punishment was 20 years ago, before NuSona started and locked things into what they are. Add that to the fact that P5 is just too big of a gain for Atlus by now to fuck with the formula.

Exactly, she looks plain and boring as fuck
That's why she'll be the MC of P5 if.

Do any of y'all anons think that she'll undo that ponytail for her metaverse outfit. Joker replaces his glasses with the mask, so that he goes from wallflower to phantom thief. But royal-chan has no such glasses. So she may undo the ponytail instead. But I'm sure she'll still have Joker's mask
