How is this even an argument? Plenty of RPGs manage to have playable female protagonists. Joker is pretty much a silent protagonist and doesn't even have a fraction of the dialogue of other RPG protagonists, so why would implementing a FeMC be some insurmountable task?
Heck, the RPG in this comparison image even has its own version of Social Links, as well some different party members depending on the gender of the protagonist, despite being made in a year by a tiny dev team.
>How is this even an argument? Because Atlus is lazy. They made FeMC to give people a reason to buy P3P since it was already a super watered port. Now they don’t even acknowledge her existence.

>what is Shido? >what is the entire reason Joker gets sent to Shujin in the first place? So? There are RPGs that have different starting premises depending on what character you play as.
Also, strictly speaking, nothing about that is incompatible with a female protagonist. It's not like Joker was accused of raping someone.

Basically this. If I didn't already play the game and you've shown me his face without context and told me that this was an anime girl I wouldn't bat an eye at that statement.

Just move on dude. If you want a FeMC just go play P3P again.
