>Persona 3
>A group of young people with genuine trauma in their short lives are brought together and must overcome a threat to all of humanity, learning to accept and overcome the burdens they bear together however big they may be (losing your loved ones to untimely deaths/having the mistakes of your family be your responsibility including having innocent blood on your hands/finding out what it means to live as an artificial life form).
>Persona 4
>A bunch of spoiled brats complain about not getting a date/having to inherit a successful family business/being a homo, interfere with a police investigation and then at the final hour it turns out it was actually a big threat out of fucking nowhere and we're supposed to give a shit.
P4fags will defend this
Persona 3
Other urls found in this thread:
There is nothing to defend they are two different stories who were trying different things. P5 is the only badly written Persona game.
fpbp
don't samefag
do persona fans even like persona games? feels like all discussion about this series is
>"THIS GAME IS BAD"
>"WELL THIS ONE IS WORSE"
>"GUYS, CAN'T WE ALL AGREE THAT THIS GAME IS THE WORST ONE"
>"NO THAT ONE IS AT LEAST BETTER THAN THIS ONE"
for real, it feels like you guys don't even like the games
>P3
>Cardboard characters try to solve a confusing case that doesn't make any sense
>Nobody grows or learns anything except a certain chad who's waifu dies
>Him and a certain robot are fucking awesome and nobody remembers anyone else
>Story is probably going somewhere but then it just isn't and protagonist defeats evil but because he sacrifices himself, people think it's "deep"
>Has a party member who dies but makes the party member so forgettable that nobody cares
>P4
>YOUR AFFECTIOOON
>Holy shit this fucking ost I'm just trying to go shopping
>Soul and heart put into every single scene
>"Something bad is happening" piano track destroys your braincells again
>Every character is an actual character and nobody is perfect
>Story is dark without going into grimdark territory, having your own scooby doo posse keeps the mystery going
>Everything is better than in P3, it's original and interesting
>P3fags aren't somehow just angry hipsters
Don't be salty now, it's the truth. P5 a shit.
Have you considered?
Both 3 and 4 are full of soul but in their own ways.
>Persona games before 3
Never.
>soul and heart
>actual characters feel like characters
>not when they're sucking off the MC in some form 24/7
>dark story
>clearly never played anything but P3 and P4, doesn't know shit about SMT as a whole
Gave me a chuckle.
Go outside more often.
>clearly never played anything but P3 and P4, doesn't know shit about SMT as a whole
Lmao, great argument, gave me a chuckle.
P4 > P3 was the argument, and P4 < P3 was OP.
What the fuck is your argument? Being a bitch ass pussy?
>it's another shitposter trying to start a flame war between Personafags
>this is what P3fags actually believe
Your game is literally no different from P4, they’re practically the same game you faggot.
P5 is better than both by far.
>P5 is better than both by far.
>P5babies actually believe this
I feel like this timeline has an anomaly. People should be praising Persona 4 more than Persona 3, unless it's just Persona 3 fags being the vocal minority.
heh the persona sucks
How dare you
Actual quality is irrelevant, this is a battle of hipsters.
>persona 3
>friendships forged by fire and sacrifice
>persona 4
>hehehheh kanjis a fucking fag
It's called a bildungsroman or a coming of age story and Persona 4 is the best one gaming has to offer by far.
This. Persona 5 is most disappoint sequel I've ever played. So terrible.
Nah, it's just that everyone with a brain either prefers 3 or 4 and hates 5. P5niggers can't handle it and try desperately to diminish one of the earlier ones and it's hard to argue with a retard.
Sure, buddy. No SMT game reaches P4 levels of character and thematic quality. It's simply one of a kind, a quintessential Persona game and a masterpiece of the genre. P5 on the other hand is complete garbage.
>P5 is better than both by far.
I'm baffled how someone can even think this. Maybe if you played 5 first and really LOVED the few QoL improvements it made but the writing is so terrible I'm surprised how anyone could even finish it.
Okay, you can stop shitposting now. Let's have a good thread.
back to Yea Forums with you
I’ve played more MegaTen games than you
The writing in P5 is significantly better than 3/4. Literally nothing happens in 3/4, how anyone can enjoy a non-story and months of mediocrity is beyond me. Everything else about P5 is also ten times better, like fighting demons with demon negotiations, the combat in general, all of the mechanics and customization, and so on.
p5 = p4 > p3
p1 and p2 are their own category.
Rest of SMT games are also.
It's been a shitflinging fanbase since day 1. You have 2 factions.
>waifufags
>shitflingers
That's about it.
The problem is there are people who play MegaTen games who unironically use terms like “weeb shit” and think anime girls are a bad thing so that’s where you get the edgy SMT crowd that spergs in every thread about playing muh epic SMT. Then those same type of people somehow think P3 was less “waifu shit” and had less “”””””bad writing”””””” than P5 even though there was more waifu shit since you have no choice but to date all of the girls and their dates start at rank 7.
You got the > part wrong, it should be
This. I always see threads like "Persona 4 and/or 5 are souless and are shit", "Persona 3 killed the franchise", "Soul, souless, soul, souless, souless, etc." and like you said it dwells down into "this is one is better than this one, fuck you, this one is better than that one." seriously why can't these guys just appreciate each game for doing it's own thing and that each one in particularly appeals to certain fans because i feel like every game in the persona series is trying to do it's own thing at least story and themes wise. It's just constant shitflinging between P3cunts, P4fags and P5niggers instead actually explaining why their game of choice is their favourite. It's always a comparison between those 3 with normally degrading the ones they don't like to make their favourite one seem better instead making actual arguments or if they're really lazy, they'll just say "persona (Insert number between 1-5) is for (insert insult here)."
You got the < part wrong, it should be >
>he doesn't know that it's Dragon Quest V that actually has the best bildungsroman in gaming
Can't beat the classics, now.
Damn, didn't really think of it that way...
Please somebody discuss Persona 1 and 2
>imagine caring about P3 or P4 when Persona 5 exists
You guys are almost as bad as SMT fags
Here? No way pal
You're all cunts, hee ho
This but unironically
P3 and P4’s time is up. They’re a vocal minority on this board and everywhere else.
why is persona 5 so fucking boring
Except the best Persona can't even come close to the best SMT game, and P5 is still poorly written garbage with good QoL improvements
Too long and padding out the ass
>P5 is the only badly written Persona game.
Fpbp
Persona 5 is better than every SMT mainline game.
They're the minority since their games have only released on PS2 when it was dead and the fucking Vita.
If they were on modern hardware not a single fucking soul would pretend P5 isn't complete garbage.
>The writing in P5 is significantly better than 3/4
Imagine being a nigger with taste this bad. Evil blueberry man, shittiest characters with 0 development, a cast with no chemistry a in medias res intro that doesn't continue for 70 hours, a non-existent overarching storyline for the vast majority of the playthrough etc. You have to be mentally retarded to enjoy it.
>ike fighting demons with demon negotiations, the combat in general, all of the mechanics and customization, and so on.
There is literally 2 QoL improvements. The shared XP and the baton passing. That's it. The demon negotiation isn't even a minigame, it's just picking a correct answer that is explained to you in a tutorial. There is no thinking involved and is somehow even a step down from actual minigames from previous titles. Imagine being such a brainlet to actually state demon negotiations as an improvment holy fucking fuck.
admittedly I haven't played it but I will once it releases on modern hardware. But I doubt it does it better than Persona 4.
youtube.com
this remix of battle themes from SMT1 and SMT2 is better than everything that's in the entirety of P4
Persona 3 is by far the worst Persona game in the whole series. Fuck off zoomers.
Just the improvements made to fusion alone makes me never want to go back to 3 or 4
Okay sure, now talk about the story and the characters
The characters have way more develop in P5, you're delusional. The overall storyline is very much existent, how did it go over your head retardbro? P3 and P4 have literally no story, absolutely zero things happen over a span of months. P5's plot is constantly progressing with what's happening with the Phantom Thieves and the media.
The massive improvements to gameplay are not "QOL", they're complete overhauls of the shitty shadow enemies that nobody liked into proper SMT demons, the way the series was meant to be. There is thinking involved in demon negotiation, you absolute brainlet.
No one can discuss the games without shitting on the one that isn’t there favorite
I think P3 was much better than P4 and was very disappointed by P4, but I at least had a good time with it and wanted to finish the game. I have tried from launch to finish P5 and I'm only just past the Pyramid boss. I have never played a game that felt so much like a fucking chore, and I used to play KMMOs where you do nothing but grind the same mob for 100 hours and fear for your life whenever another player is even visible on the map
p5>p4>>>>>>p3
fuck you
fpbp
Welcome to installment wars annd shitposts, might as well say the same thing for something like FF or FE
All 3 persona games suck equally.
What the fuck am I watching
I love Fuuka!
