Nothing emo about death, faggot. And the fact that you talk about the 2000s like it was a long time ago just gives away your age.

It's a dungeon crawler, get over it. Splitting Tartarus into smaller palaces wouldn't make it better.

>worst boss design
No. A lot of the mid-bosses in Tarturus took sheer will-power and grinding to beat rather than just relying on weaknesses or one of your teammates randomly wanting to cause a group attack.

Woof. You couldn't be more wrong, they have the best interactions compared to P4 or P5.

If you like that then go play action RPGs. That's where AI controlled parties belong. In turn based games, that's a travesty.

I really want this but even if they execute everything perfectly you know people will just whine about how samey Tartarus is.

Portable is worse than FES because you it ruins the only good thing about P3 which are the story and characters.

How what?
"There are a lot of RPGs out there where you can control every aspect of your party members, including what kind of underwear they are wearing... but because we wanted the player to ralate to the Hero more than any other character in 'Persona 3' we wanted the other characters to feel like 'other people'. [...] It's true that we got some feedback stating that the party system was 'too difficult' to control effectively, but I'll honestly say that I don't regret doing what we did with it. I'm glad we stuck to our guns on that one."

The lore of the dark hour, the lore of Tartarus, the lore of apathy syndrome, the lore of the monthly shadows attacking the city etc. But this can all easily be lost on a brainlet like you.

I love Fuuka!

But Fuuka's S.Link isn't about you magically solving her problems, she does 90% of the work herself while you're just her moral support and occasional taste tester.

Yeah user, Mitsuru did not marry that random dude cause of herself not mc, Yuakri talked to her mother again cause of herself not mc, Fuuka tried hard and changed cause of herself not mc right ? same shit for Aigis slink >she does 90% of the work herself while you're just her moral support and occasional taste tester.
She can't do shit without your support

>Dude Scooby Doo and friend ship ANIME

>party members barely interact with each other
In P3, you're able to talk to individual party members in dungeons and their responses change based on party comp. This feature is missing in P4 and 5, so just based off that you're wrong.

>Le wacky pun man is the most obvious twist villain ever
This wasn't even that big of a twist. He was barely a villain.

>The lore of the dark hour, the lore of Tartarus, the lore of apathy syndrome, the lore of the monthly shadows attacking the city etc. But this can all easily be lost on a brainlet like you.
You learn all that shit in like 5 mins then back to characters development
>Not even close.
Yeah its more like 90%

>you're able to talk to individual party members in dungeons and their responses change based on party comp.
No they don't, you can just ask for heal or change their equipment, they don't say shit about your party comp and always say their normal phrase unless they are on low health or you are on a big shadow floor
>This wasn't even that big of a twist. He was barely a villain.
>Literally the reason Nyx came back by baiting you into killing the shadows
>Barely a villain

You can suggest what they should do, but they don't fully listen until halfway in the game when you grow as a team and the MC has proven his worth as a leader.

That's what immersion is.

All I know is that you can save him but wont shinji just die anyway since the pills are killing him? At Least if I remember right they are
Also weren't strega Shinji's supplier so his persona would go berserk and try to kill him eventually anyway?
Unless there's something I don't know about in portable that stops all this

It is because you are wrong. Fighting the shadows is literally the point of the game and builds it up as you go on.

>but they don't fully listen until halfway in the game when you grow as a team and the MC has proven his worth as a leader.
Yes they do, put them on heal and they won't ever change unless you want

>Fighting the shadows is literally the point of the game and builds it up as you go on.
You spent less time fighting shadows than looking at cut scenes of your party members doing shit not related, shadows are each 30 days you spent the rest doing nothing

Speak english please. Fuck

Both versions of 1 should be at the bottom with random encounters, I never played either part of 2 since anons always say the gameplay is shit, and 3PSP is self explanatory.

How are your teammates unique when they do what you tell them to do ? tactics is like choose your skill but nerfed

You're right OP but alot of cliche anime fags are going to attack you.

ok but is it portable?

>Fuuka tried had and changed cause of herself
Not entirely, but it wasn't because of MC either.
Fuuka decided to cook out of her own accord, when she realized she wasn't good making big lunches she went back to the basics and made riceballs. She became so good at making riceballs they were delicious and decided to make a few for SEES. Yukari ate one and asked her what they were for. Fuuka said that she was "paying back for her friendship" To which Yukari responded by saying that friendship doesn't work that way, friends don't owe each other their friendship.
That moment was when Fuuka realized she was doing things wrong and learned to stop trying so hard to be useful and liked by everyone.

Again, the only thing the MC does in her whole link is give her moral support and offering to taste her food. Besides that all of Fuuka's growth and development is done by her self.

No 20% objectively

still better than palaces if you ask me

>It's not why are you lying
Yes it its,
Night after (or some days ) you awake Orpheus
Then nothing till the moon you save Fuuka
Then nothing again till the beach
then again nothing till Ikutsuki and then you're in endgame already
>No 20% objectively
80
At least palaces are a quick shit instead of 250 floors shit

It would have been fine if they just put the shortcut doors BEFORE the bosses rather than after so you didn't have to spend an extra 5-10 minutes walking all the way back down so that you can fight with full HP/SP
One of the 2 only negatives I had with the answer besides this spoiler
Why the fuck did they force you into a 2v2 battle against your other teammates AND STICK METIS ON YOU WHO WAS FUCKIN LEVEL 20 FOR ME SO SHE DID JACK SHIT CAUSING ME TO GRIND FOR THE ONE AND ONLY TIME IN A PERSONA GAME UP TO LVL 70 MEANWHILE EVERYONE ELSE GOT A FUCKIN FREE LVL 77 BOOST PASS AND ON TOP OF THAT IT TAKES PLACE RIGHT AFTER FIGHTING SHADOW DOOR-KUN SO THE ELEMENTAL DAMAGE NEGATION ACCESSORIES GOT SUCKED UP BY MY OTHER PARTY MEMBERS MAKING IT EVEN MORE FRUSTRATING TO THINK ABOUT WHEN IT HAPPENED
But other than that I had an overall good time with it.

There are a few things that I miss, playing P3P after beating P4G.

>Text Log
Not being able to go back and read conversations and lectures sucks.
>Restart from floor
I will be unapologetically casual about this. Title screen on game over has always pissed me off in video games, and the fact that only MC has to die for it means that I have to baby myself and avoid using a persona with a weakness.
>Characters NOT getting "Tired" or "Sick"
I don't care how easy it is to work around. It's the same as the stamina bar in Diablo, just take that shit out, it contributes nothing.
>The characters in general
So far, they're just so plain and dry on the whole, Yukari and Mitsuru included. Junpei has a little personality going for him, but he kinda rubs me the wrong way.

Some other minor things, like the point and click overworld, persona fusion differences, costumes being tied to armor, but the game's alright. I'm relatively invested in the story and it has some good gameplay mechanics like having the members split up to explore.

More importantly, is P5 actually shit? Because it seems like the "cool to hate" game, like how FE grandpas hate Fateswakening and praise objectively inferior titles on the SNES.

>More importantly, is P5 actually shit? Because it seems like the "cool to hate" game, like how FE grandpas hate Fateswakening and praise objectively inferior titles on the SNES.

Not really. Stuffs happens between those segments like gaining new party members and group events

B-BUT REVOLVER JESUS UGHHHHH I MEAN NYX IS TOTALLY DEEP BRO

Party members got nothing to do with the dark hour and Tartarus, and group events can be considered filler

P4 most of the time yes but P5 party members are involved in the dungeon they come in and there are less group events than P4 and about the same as P3 i guess

Strega is the most retarded villain group ever.
Even more retarded is that Mitsuru couldn't figure out who they were until it was spelled out for you literally at the end of the game. Like... god... damn. How is Mitsuru THAT retarded?

P4 still got more lore than P3, you learn more about the midnight channel than Tartarus and Dark hour, only bad thing is that there are more events

I wouldn't call 5 "filler" exactly.
You could skip 4 entirely, and you wouldn't be missing much because it's not exactly referenced in 5 as much as persona 3 and persona 2 are, unless you play persona 4 golden, which, apparently, has some extra content that people rationalize it as a reason to play it.

As much as I like 4 the only time you learn actual info on the midnight channel is at the beginning of the game when they tell you its existence, and then at the end of the game when Ameno-Sagiri and Izanagi tell you its actual functions and purpose

I'll never understand P3 lore. Like, from the very start, it was pretty obvious to anyone playing to put 2 & 2 together when you're going to a school owned by the Kirijo Group, which also exploded a few years ago after also having a bunch of kids get hospitalized, and now it turns into some kind of hell tower at midnight, which is the only known structural change during the dark hour, oh, and you're part of a group funded and supplied by the Kirijo Group to explore it.
It takes like 30 seconds to understand they were doing experiments on kids, something horrible went wrong causing the dark hour to happen, and Tartarus to appear. Then like 4 months into the game, Yukari finally pieces that shit together herself, despite being with the group longer and being far better informed, and it's like "wait what? You just figured this out now? Just what bullshit did they feed you when they recruited you?" And then everyone acted like this changes everything even though nothing changes anything, ever.

If you needed Thundercheese of Armacheesdon to win, it simply means you were too low-leveled. You're only asked to beat the fucker at the very end of the game, when you have levels that would allow you to actually stand a chance against it in a noncheese fight.

But Minato already had sex with her before he died. Taking into account the fact that Yukari's S-Link is canon becaue of the Anwser. I don't consider the P4 games into P3 standalone canon because it freduces the characters to be one note, but according to those he probably had sex with Elizabeth, too.

That's fanon bullshit. Those events can't even happen in Vanilla P3. However, actual content in the actual game supports both Aegis and Yukari's S-Link being undeniable canon. Any other romance in Persona 3 isn't outright denied but there's no canon evidence that it happened, for example, Fuuka and Mitsuru are not in love with MC after the events of P3, which contradicts their social link.

It's acceptable to use waifu as a shorthand for potential waifu material.

4 is the only cast that's enviable in that regard.
3 is full of suffering, despair, and ends with the protag dying
5 is superhero nonsense that isn't remotely realistic. The cast's "interactions" outside of palaces/finding targets are practically nonexistent. Even the hawaii trip before burgerspace is mostly just talking about mr burgerspace. Romances are extremely hamfisted S-Link wise and there are too many options.
