Persona 5 is a boring piece of shit and is essentially Persona 3 for the 3rd fucking time.

play it on PC first before you reply incel

Not on shitch.

SMT is pretty cringe too bro

It's mostly switch owners who got their hopes up thinking 5 was coming to the switch
They got their wish in the form of a musou

Don't know, but I can't wait for the doujins.

Why is this allowed?

Why aren't SJWs attacking Japan for doing this stuff all the time?

same, i(d really like for them to release a new game as unforgiving as nocturne just so tehse "new fans" rage quit and shit on them so they can start making games for the actual fans and not bandwagon jumping normies

shes so fucking hot. I want sex now.

Language barrier.

They cant attack japan because they don't know japanese and if the jap devs don't give two shits what the american market wants, they give minus infinite shits what the american SJWs want.
That's why only Nintendo of America got the backlash for Bayo2 the year GamerGate happened and not Nintendo of Japan.

Japanese devs are a black box to americans, and they don't care what any american wants to say. They want hot girls in their games, they'll put hot girls in their games.

Not on Nintendo

don't know what you mean but p5 was an objectively bad game and a major let down compared to the rest of the series. dont think anyones complaining about the old games, and people have said p5 was shit since the beginning. its mostly just the herd of retards who played it as their first and only persona game who think they can say otherwise.

Because persona has been garbage since 4 went full westaboo pandering

But hey, Atlus knows their market.

because half of Yea Forums only comes here to shitpost so they started making threads about how they own a switch and totally want this game for it

do not insult bubbles like that that's rude

P5 was shit

Are you trying to imply p1 was a dating sim?

Are you retarded or something?
The majority of the megaten fanbase has always hated what Persona had become with 3.

>wanted to say that literally no one does that
>scrolled down

although p5 sure had some tedious palaces later in game. okumura palace bullshit, even shido's ship had some moments when you felt like saving the game and doing literally anything else

Do you just call everyone you disagree with a samefag?

I must have missed this scene

p4, maybe, but p5 is as japanese as it gets. it's literally a play-by-play critique of japanese society, especially its broken justice system and people's obsession with age-based hierarchy even when it goes against logic and common sense. most (if not all) of the villains are based on actual japanese news stories.
plus, the omnipresence of social media throughout the game (the phan-site polls and comments) and the pressure it puts on the phantom thieves makes a lot of sense if you've ever heard of how crazy japanese social media can be:

I'll take that as a yes.

Oh, I hated it alright, but then 3 happened and it was such an improvement that I've now come full circle.

Random contrarians on Yea Forums don't mean much. Even in polls conducted on here P5 sits on top of whatever rankings, whether that be best Persona game or best JRPG of this generation.

Hulk's off-screen death was the saddest. Now only some dumb nerd remains.

>5 was underwhelming

it's the longest game of the series with the best gameplay, art, and VAs.

No joke the "Golden" edition for P5 looks disappointing as fuck. How the fuck does it take 3 years to put out minimal shit (1 new area, 1 new party member, 1 new minigame, 1-2 new scenes and 2 new confidants) when the content should've existed in the base game in the first place? It honestly pisses me off when I bought both the JPN version and the Western release for full price only to learn that the "true" version comes out 3 years later because if I knew it was going to be so short I would've actually waited. Fuck ATLUS and their kikey shit, I hope Persona gets iceboxed forever.

Thank you for the containment quarentine thread.

And that's not even the cringiest scene

Since Persona 3, but especially 4. Didnt help 4 got too much spotlight

>babyshit like littered save rooms.
you know, as opposed to
3, which you find a green glowing circle on each for that you can use to go back, or the big teleport pad before every boss that you can also teleport to and from to save
4, you can use a go-home to be at the entrance and save, then resume at the floor you were previously at from the entrance.
you act like the series had difficulty

>people
just seething nintendo fanboys

>each for
each floor

People have always hated Persona, they were just drowned out for a while after 5 came out.

>sony exclusive
that's why

He knows, he just wants to force the narrative that people hate it because it wasn't ported.

I never was a fan. Finished P3P and enjoyed it but that's all. P4G was poormans VN with boring ass dungeon design and dragging fights. I still like SMT but I had enough of the same shit.

the last part of mementos filled with hard enemies doesn't have almost any save points

and if you happen to get RNG fucked after the boss gauntlet, you have to do it ALL OVER AGAIN

you have to run back, save after a boss, just to be safe.

Its popular now

stop lying
Yea Forums loves persona 5 when it come out

>Persona mouthbreathers actually got mad enough about twitter to make this

You only have best gameplay. Everything else in 5 was objectively worse

>gameplay

okay, as it should be because its been 13+ years since Soejima started on Persona

This. The game was great for the first half but shat itself for the second. It became a chore to play and I doubt Royal will fix much.

Which is why it was hated from the start.

>filled with hard enemies
That's an overstatement if I've ever seen one.
By that point you shouldn't have any difficulties dispatching enemies.

I was underlevelled a bit, then I grinded the 2 guys that give 10k each before the last boss

But before that point I didn't grind and didn't do a ton of mementos, just focused on palaces and social link stuff.

They are. I used to be friends with a turboSJW that absolutely exploded at the mere implication of consensual sex between two underage people in an emotional relationship (not even explicitly described) but was suddenly okay with them being treated as pieces of meat the moment the magic number rolled over.

plain corridors are better for a dungeon crawler. 5's dungeons are littered with stupid inane garbage that rape your senses and disorient you.

I liked 5 but they underused all the characters. In 3 and 4 they gave you events that made you feel invested and give a shit about everyone, 5 cuts every single main story bonding session short with either bad weather or the villains fucking up shit.

Even if you're underleveled using items to abuse baton pass and all out attacks makes it a non issue.

you're cringe bro

I mean name a jrpg where endgame isn't a fucking joke

SMT Nocturne, Digital Devil Saga, SMT IV Apoc

No, but Persona always had a huge level of popularity whether it was just spinoff school SMT but with Jung or school dating sim with RPG elements

ever heard of rythmic gymnastics ? kind of a thing in japan

Every anime waifushit series gets a lot of shit on Yea Forums, why would Persona be immune?

Wrong on all accounts dude lmao
There's nothing particularly hard about any SMT game past early game where you get randomly one shot from crits
You could have at least tried Strange Journey, at least that one has dungeons that are painful to navigate and that constitutes difficulty

Almost all the characters are underused, in P4 and P5, because they stop mattering as soon as they enter your party, and just become another NPC at your disposal, and one that doesn't develop at that. 3 is the only modern Persona game to get its characters right. Adding more bonding sessions isn't going to change that.

>Nocturne
lol

Etrian
Certain FF games
4 Apoc
Technically pokemon because its a joke the entire way through.

>certain FF games
lol

>didn't play on hard mode

Because SMT has been always superior to high school anime drama.

if you think nocturne hard mode is hard you're the one that probably didn't play it

Attached: 1556063982777.png (1280x1201, 207K)

It depends. If you're doing a normal run then the end of Nocturne is pretty trivial. But if you're doing a low level challenge run, then the Lucifer fight at the end can be frustratingly dependent on luck.

>You could have at least tried Strange Journey, at least that one has dungeons that are painful to navigate and that constitutes difficulty
Only Grus and Eridanus's maze. SJ's just filled with some random spikes here and there
But he's right on Apoc, game's actually pretty balanced with its scaling throughout, especically coming from IV

random question but do I need to have played smt 4 to get apoc's story ? I really don't want to play smt 4 it looks so gay

>You only have best gameplay.
so it is the best persona game.

what the fuck is even a low level challenge in a game where you can't flee random encounters

Yes, 4 Apoc takes place in 4's neutral ending.

Yes. Apocalypse assumes that the protagonist of SMT IV, Flynn, took the Neutral route and then Apocalypse has you play as a new character and fuck everything up preventing Flynn from actually finishing the Neutral route and defeating the Law and Chaos representatives, extending the plot and retconning the ending of SMT IV. It's a direct continuation of the storyline.

This. You might as well just wait for the stupid "ultimate" edition they'll inevitably release two years after the next game. All this will add is a new character, a few scenes and some quality of life improvements anyway. It will feel like a patch at most.

Yes, they are in fact hylians.
They just use magic to hide their elf ears.

It has the best gameplay so 4 is the worst. 4s story is serviceable but uninteresting it has 3s SMT-lite gameplay but way easier. It does get some points with full party control on the first release but considering 3 has a rerelease with this feature, there's almost no reason to play 4 over 3 or 5.

Also this is my current head canon

Prove the twitter users in the picture are American, right now. I know the person who drew the original dress edit is from some sort of Hispanic country.

I only started playing them three years ago, played 1-5 throughout the year and as much as I tried to like them, 3-5 were hard to enjoy. It's just the overall design of the games, stretching out the plot far longer than it can really hold out so you can do social links for months, and the social links aren't that interesting either since they're very basic social sims. Dungeon design also sucks, but that's always been an issue in the series, though Persona 1's dungeons irritate/bore me the least (except the Ice Queen's Palace, fuck that place). I liked 1 and both 2s a decent amount, but 3-5 are hard to enjoy much, though 4 is better than 3 at least, and 5 is better than 4 in most regards. I don't understand the people that say 5's worse than 4, and especially 3. I think it's probably mostly nostalgia.

Played since 2 and I thought 5 was incredibly underwhelming especially when compared to 4 and even 3 in some aspects.
Who has better vacation and after hour events? 4 and 3.
Who has better party members that actually seem like a team of people or at least who could give a fuck about each other? 4 and 2.
Which MC doesnt have a fucking bed time/nanny? Literally all but 5.
Who never saw it coming? 5.

If it wasnt for the soundtrack and easy dungeon cheese so you can at least get close to all of the links in one go and experience most of what the game has to offer without needing to go through all this shit again 5 would be irredeemable. God fucking dammit I wanted a Sae route.
