How can one game be so good?
Persona 5
>game
I don't think you know what that word means.
Does ACfag have nothing better to do?
persona 4 > persona 3 > persona 5
i think i would like persona 5 more if a lot of the fluff was cut out. as is, i feel like the same story is on loop. and its not relegated to a 15 minute cutscene after a full moon/saving someone. a few days of every week, is going over the same basic info like stalking a target or how to open a palace or wondering if a heart will change. it also should have been a lot edgier based on its style and looks, instead of something as light hearted and innocent as p4.
No, he makes embarrassing posts like the one above yours which only prove that the game has more hours of gameplay than most games.
Based.
>i-it's okay when japan does it!!
hahaha no switch port
There is not 40 hours of cutscenes in that game
>gameplay
pic unrelated
It was darker than P3 and P4 though. You don't have a Kamoshida or Kaneshiro in that game. The end stuff with deeper mementos was also a very dark and depressing take on society.
That's the reason wahoofags are seething about muh gameplay ITT. They haven't even played it which is why they post meme images like those.
P3 is super dark and edgy because uhhhhhh death.... and nothing happening...
>There is not 40 hours of cutscenes in that game
it's including long dialogue scenes, like Goro blackmailing the Phantom Thieves
>not showing enemy's turn
How do we know you aren't in NG+ using a phys immune persona or god tier armor?
The retard who keeps spamming that pic doesn't realize that you have agency for 39 of those hours making decisions in the conversation. There's maybe only 1 hour of full on cutscenes combined across the whole 100 hour game.
He probably doesn't think "press x to advance dialogue" or "auto advance dialogue" is agency
I'm talking about when you make dialogue choices.
the kamoshida story was a very good hook. it felt personal because he called you garbage every day and it was clear he abused and raped students, one to the point of suicide. he was menacing enough to feel heavy. kaneshiro looked stupid and it was dumb how makoto just punked him.
Kaneshiro was pretty dark though in that he was an evil underground mob boss and he was making all the Tokyo youth his debt slaves. Then, if you fail to do his deadline he turns you into battered sex slaves to pay for the debt.
Madarame is pretty bad too with what he did to Yusuke's mom.
maybe. they just looked so stupid though i couldnt take them seriously. it looked like the silliest characters of danganronpa, like teruteru or sakura or yasuhiro. i cant see something so absurd looking as a real threat, plus the first half of the game locks you in hard with the forced schedule, wasted days, and sleeping. and those guys are all the first half of the game. it was just physically exhausting to play and the sooner persona 6 comes, we can move past this shitty game.
In the other games you play as a blue haired boy and a white haired boy. That's a silly non-realistic hair color. Ikutusuki and Adachi were pretty silly villains with dumb motives.
The first half of the game has way more options than P3 and P4, there's literally so much more to do in your free time.
Seethe harder, nintendies.
someone doesn't like turn based games
It isn't
It's got good city stuff but I really didn't care for the last third of the story where the social commentary basically ceased to have any grounding in reality and the characterization of everyone, from the party to the villains became one dimensional
But I really liked the city-stuff and I really liked Akechi so I'm getting P5R
not even close, thats a dead give away youre just a p5 fanboy. there might be more activities to do in p5, but you are way more restricted schedule wise.
>where the social commentary basically ceased to have any grounding in reality
But it became more grounded than ever and it explained why things were the way they were for the whole game with society's apathy toward people abusing power to the detriment of others.
There's way more activities to do in P5, that's what makes it better and more interesting. The reason the schedule is """restricted""" is because there's more going on in the plot, I'd rather have that than literally nothing happening for 90% of the game like in P3 and P4.
i would prefer that to if the plot was more interesting besides repeating the same info. the few minutes of plot development every month in p3/4 is more interesting then wondering if the targets heart will change or an event getting rained on or saying how bored everyone is in hawaii
I strongly disagree. The P5 plot is packed with interesting things compared to P3 and P4.
By not being Persona 5 of all things.
Based
guess well just have to disagree then
Came to post this.
Now post the Xenoblade 2 one
I dunno I never played it.
Just post more of the ladies from it.
>muh adults
>a 5 minute cutscene makes you too tired to do shit
>o my shadow nen
>the shitty twists
Persona 5 is garbage
Played every Persona this year and i'm 75% into 5 right now, it's a fatigue just playing this snoozefest
And every single one of them is foreseeable if you're not straight up braindead, there is no plottwist, no revelation, anything, the cast is an uninteresting walking cliche, i don't know why they showed Haru's father getting killed to the player early on instead of being a twist at the end of the month, just an example, it's so fucking dumb.
Also the palaces get worse and worse with time, i almost want to quit and look up the story on youtube, even fucking Persona 1 wasn't this bad to play, give me one fucking reason why i should bother finishing this game by myself.
4 > 3 > 1 > 5 > 2
If a game is 100 hours long, isn't Stockholm syndrome pretty much guaranteed?
The people who hated P5 haven't finished it, and the people who loved P5 probably have spent more time playing it than they've spent talking to 3D girls in their entire life.
>muh adults
If that's your honest take away from P5 then you're so retarded that the game's themes went over your head.
>there's no plot twist
>biggest twists in the entire series
Please don't talk about games you haven't played user.
I agree with you.
It also went way too fucking anime after sae.
Holy shit the shido calling card scene was so fucking embarrassing, I couldn't stop laughing watching it.
Nyarlathotep pls go
You have shit taste, but Persona 5 is trash, that is correct. Just drop it, it's worthless trash.
That scene was kino.
>b-b-but nintendo!
everytime
HAHAHAHAHAHA ahahahahaha ahahahahahaahahahaha Deku Midoriya is that you?
Play the game.
Neet pandering on a already well established IP
>Persona 5 is worthless tras-
haha that was so fucking retarded. it was played as a big comeback hype moment, but the whole city wasnt even watching the big screen and just going about their business not caring.
>biggest twists
Did i miss them or i have to sleep for another 20 hours of literally nothing for them to happen?
Sorry i didn't like 2, it looked interesting until the "oh my god we actually all know each other from our childhood lmao we forgot"
>posts non-gameplay
just like my favorite animes! wtf i love persona 5 now!
You haven't complete the game, there are 3/4 huge twists that blow every other twist from the Persona series out of the water.
>not liking P2
Your taste is extra shit.
P5 is NEET repellent.
how do i get a ryuji bf bros
P5 has an entire story arc showing you that being a NEET is bad and you need to get help before you kill yourself.
>make dialogue choice
>nothing changes
wow, that's innovative.
user I'm an unironic gamer. Im fucking stupid. I tried emulating it.
First guide I found required megasync, Megasync was broken and would turn my taskbar and desktop pitch-black and would never start up again after closing it.
Second guide went along well. Downloaded files. Unzipped them. Then I had to merge files. Somehow this resulted in it using 200 GB of memory space and I gave up hope.
I'll wait until they port it, if they port it.
It changes the flow of conversation and how people react to you. Play the game.
>not liking P2
GTFO Nyarly, no one's buying your shit
Consider getting a cheap PS3 to play it on. There's tons of other games on PS3 that you can also play, like the other Personas and SMT games. Or ask the emulator general on /vg/.
Futaba is still a "neet" but she now has friends and now she can still be a leetxors hacker with her friends ^_^
>Flow of conversation.
No, there's like 3 different ways to say yes. Best case, it changes the next person's line but goes back to whatever they were saying before.
No there's not, there's a yes answer, and two other answers that can vary a lot.
>disliking futaba
Sign of supreme shit taste and being soulless
Still waiting for someone to tell me why 2 should be good
>emulating
I'm playing it just fine on rpcs3, and i'm an emulation brainlet, don't even know what those things you posted are
I've considered that. But I'm reluctant to take the jump. Browsing these threads have already spoiled everything for me anyways.
how fucking delusional can you get? choices mean nothing in dialogue.
kek
The game is still very enjoyable even if you know what's going to happen. You can get a cheap used to PS3 for well under 100 dollars, and it's worth with how many great games there are in its library.
....are you baiting me?
Waifu fagging a game you haven't played makes you rank lower than smug animeposters.
You're the one that's baiting.
How exactly did you emulate it? I got rpcs3 but after that I got lost trying to find the actual game.
>Yea Forums hates Persona 5 now
What the FUCK went wrong?
Well, for starters, the game was shit
Loud contrarians
Nintendo faggots got mad about it not getting ported and about joker being in smash so now they're dedicated to spamming these threads with shitposts attacking the game when they haven't even played it.
SMTfags are getting increasingly angry at Persona 5 as it keeps getting games and there's no word on SMT V.
P3 and P4fags are mad that their games are becoming irrelevant and forgotten by the new fanbase, and their nostalgia won't let them enjoy P5.
Other JRPGfags also like to attack P5 out of jealousy.
Okay let's take the cultural festival
You go on the stage. Ryuji asks what you're gonna say and you're given a choice to confess to someone.
>Pick a guy or girl not in the school
Ryuji: they don't even know who that is!
MC just decides to stand awkwardly on stage
>Pick a girl in the school
Ryuji: you idiot don't say that! but could that be true?
MC just decides to stand awkwardly on stage
>Pick Ryuji
Ryuji: no you idiot! I don't need this on me
MC decides to stand awkwardly on stage.
Show me user a scene where it changes based on the dialogue choices. nigger's going to say sae's scene and the ending choice because he's baiting.
I like it but I hate on Yea Forums after the first two weeks, you can't say flaws on this game or you're shitposting or trolling. It's fucking frustrating.
You get to choose which girl goes up on stage in the culture festival and how you embarrass them with questions, you got that whole scene wrong. And you do get to choose how you navigate to the true end in the interrogation.
This.
Oh and how does that change the story? Are you a spic?
It changes current events, which is the story retard.
What do you mean? Just search Persona 5 ISO on google and download the game, i had to add some manual patch because my shitty PC is 7 years old but there are guides for that too.
I'd like to agree on the fact that nostalgia ruins a lot of opinions but i played P3 in March and P4 in May, P5 is still just a worse game
Are you a spic?
I like comfy things so 4 is my favorite
Sorry P5 anons.... played 5 and it isnt as good as 4.
4>3>5
Of course a /pol/nigger would get upset over P5.
Unironically kill yourself my man. That's like saying "I changed the story because my faggot MC is using Mothman instead of Nue"
You didn't answer my question. I want to know if I'm wasting my time trying to explain things.
You can't even type correctly ESL
Are you a spic?
You are retarded
You're literally saying
>changing the story doesn't mean it's changing the story!!!
Its a good game, but Isnt as good as 4 though.
>"huurr I chose "Yes" instead of "Okay", I completely changed the story!"
faggot, I think you're just fucking with me but I did have a good laugh
You didn't play the game if you think that's what the dialogue options were.
I did, and I'm right. You're wrong and a lying faggot.
huh.
It's that simple. I got it now. Thanks.
My Roy got obliterated by Hero in online.....
It doesn't have soul like P4
>Power Intuition minigame
That doesn't mean much coming from a lying faggot
Wrong thread, nintendie.
>i feel like the same story is on loop.
This is actually my complaint about 4. The main plot is already a very basic "who done it" murder mystery. The social links with your playable cast felt like redundant - like they really needed to drill in all the faults and insecurities they already laid out in their channels.
Like damn nigga stfu no one fucking cares that p4 is the “best” go to your own p4 thread or some shit
I'm actually happy. I always thought 4 was the best but user's always shitted on me in every persona thread for saying that.
Based
joker sucks and p5 is trash

Degenerate and unhygienic.
Its ANNE you bumblefuck
the correct spelling is even in the pic you posted
The game's crammed with obnoxious filler to pad out the length, so I thought the pacing was awful. While the presentation of battles is obviously slick, there's often not much actual strategy to them: hit the enemies' weaknesses, do an all out attack, repeat. I probably wouldn't mind the combat being so simple if the game didn't feel too long for me. Dungeons were visually more interesting than past entries, yet more tedious as there aren't many engaging puzzles. You mostly do the same kind of shallow dungeon-crawling over and over again. The dialogue/story event/cutscene to gameplay ratio was ridiculous, worse than so-called western "movie games." On top of all this I thought the story and social commentary were just sloppy in general, too childish, dumbed down. Trying to tell a cinematic picaresque story while keeping the repetitive life sim formula wasn't a smart idea, in my opinion. Or at least it wasn't the best execution.
>posting blacked girl
Your opinion is invalid
3 did it better. Instead of forcing you to go through a themed dungeon every month on a time limit, the game instead provided you with enemies, minidungeons and situations to comfortably grind for early full moon bosses so you never felt "forced" to go into Tartarus. That is until later in the game where bosses were standalone and you had more free time to comfortably blow through the tower. Good enough idea that 5 just straight up ripped it off for Mementos complete with super seekrit true final boss at the bottom.
it isn't good though
Mementos was better than the trash that was tartarus
Yea Forums being contrarian, console warring niggers, and false flagging niggers like OP.
Its shit though.
Persona started with 4 and ended with Dancing All Night
>Persona 5
FUCKING YAWN.
Go Play Raidou you pleb.
>tfw no more Raidou games
>tfw Atlus only cares about their boring DVD menu games
Atlus being pretty shit lately, great Persona 5 muso. Couldn't even bother to just make it "Megami Tensei" themed. I find it extremely hard to care about what this company produces anymore.
I did play Raidou faggot
P5 is better
Whatever, not my problem that you prefer garbage.

>best cast of any persona, especially protagonist
>smoothest gameplay of any persona

It's not without its flaws and it's not for everyone, but it's recognized as a masterpiece for a reason, many reasons.
You don't understand how badly I want a new Raidou game

What agency?

This webm is about P4, but it applies to all the games in the series.
all the games have good music, p5's staple tracks are just all top tier
>his opinion is just straight up wrong
you're autistic. Persona 3 has an unbelievably bad cast, literally every character is so boring they felt a need to add a magical dog and a robot. Persona 4's characters are like prototypes of Persona 5's which improved on all of them.
>the asshurt wrpgfag is here
>dumb FeMCnigger
Where did that come from?
>People only get ass mad at this image, nobody can offer any counter argument.
Gotta say people love to shitpost about this game but the OTS was pretty sweet. Chillin on a lazy Sunday listening to Hoshi To Bokura To is pretty chill
WRPGs are boring as shit and hardly games, this is so obvious it doesn't even need to be stated which is why no one replies to your try hard bait that you spam every day.
Based WRPG-chad
Persona started at 3.
>People only get ass mad at this image, nobody can offer any counter argument.
Because everything in that image is true.
I don't dislike SMT/Persona, but the games would be better with a pre-defined protagonist who can actually speak instead of this half-assed system that is basically a Down Syndrome version of a normal dialogue system.
No it didn't dumb faggot.
user pls...

Persona Started in 4
The next episode is 4 Arena
Episode 3 is 4 Ultimax
Final Episode is 4 Dancing All Night
1's story is basically 4's but done a million times better, and is much more coherent than 5. EP, when complimented by IS, has the best story bar none. You can't even debate this one.
>Music
Just because more of the tracks are more atmosphere-oriented doesn't make them bad.
P1 and P4 have literally nothing to do with each other story wise, what are you on about?
EP is an active detriment to what IS set up, EP is so fucking shit it should have never existed.
Why do you guys always argue about this shit?
>Persona 3 has the saddest ending so--
Because Megami Tensei is the worst fanbase on Yea Forums
>People shitting on Baofu and Katsuya's game
C'mon guys, why do fans of the same series need to hate each other so much?
They're literally the only good part of the game and even then they reek of wasted potential
It's more to do with that fact that any thread where the OP says P5 is good will always be terrible.
It's because of all the shitters who have it out for P5 for one reason or another.
Maybe if there weren't so many damn threads claiming the game was the second coming of Christ there wouldn't be as many people doing that.
It's literally one of the best games ever
You sound just like the BOTW shills from a while back. This is why your threads attract hate.

Nobody plays Persona for the gameplay, they play it because they're sad incels, and it's a dating sim without the stigma of being a dating sim.
gb2/r/Yea Forums you stupid child
Because they born in 2002 didnt played 4.
P4 is objectively the best Persona game and probably the best JRPG of all time. P5 is mechanically better but the writing is terrible and thematically it's inconsistent dog shit.
There is no agency. The only choices you get to make are in the Confidant parts and even that is linear gameplay, but still gameplay I guess. The rest is just a facade.
it takes only one little sister to win a delusional pedo's heart
Makoto is so cute.
I got to choose whether or not to help Makoto with her yakuza problem or wait out the clock and let them turn her into a yakuza cocksleeve, which is what I did.
I LOVE MAKOTO
Not at all. Adachi might not be some amazing villain, but he's better written than all characters in P5 combined. Persona 5 is simply the worst written Persona game by far, probably because Hashino decided to finally test his writing skills (and failed miserably). Catherine was similar garbage, great style and premise, but shallow and childish execution. Expect Re;Fantasy to be the same terrible garbage for young anime teens.
You can date Bruce Lee, Innkeeper, Idol, Reverse Trap Detective if you want. I prefer the Reverse Trap Detective.

The social commentary is one dimensional and childish from the very start. Only weebs (and I mean actual weebs without a hint of irony) enjoy that crap.

P4 is the black sheep of the series.
Eh I feel the gameplay improvements P5 offered place it far above P4 and P3. Palaces being actual fucking dungeons was great. Though they fucked up with Mementos only having a single track for the entire thing instead of switching it up the deeper you went.
I can and will. P4 is the weakest entry.
Your opinion is shit
Lots and lots of charming characters. And the city is fun to explore.
>best cast
I like P5 but you're full of shit
Thank god theres no character development haircut
My current favorite thing about it is that fags get triggered over the two gay dudes who aggressively pursue minors.
Turns out the truth triggers snowflakes lol
P5 is a bland mess of ideas and """""style"""" almost engineered to appeal to zoomers and normalfags. Every Persona game prior had a strong direction and identity it was going for while P5 was just "guys look at all this style, we made jrpgs accessible again!!!"
I will never trust Hashino ever again.
She's such a great gal. Would marry.
This. I have no hope in Re;Fantasy despite being my most anticipated game before P5 came out. A single game completely ruined my view of a studio. It's quite remarkable to be honest, but I should have seen it coming after Catherine. Hashino should legitimately get killed soon.
There was nothing strong about P3 and P4's direction. The latter in particular was a murder mystery played straight, and even then, it wasn't particularly memorable.
Hey calm down ok?
>Hashino should legitimately get killed soon.
That escalated pretty fucking quickly.
I'm sorry if P5 hurt your feelings.
