Aesthetically shits all over P5 so hard its not even funny

P4>>>>>who cares

I'm sorry to do it to you,v, but p5≥p3>p4

I've played both P2's (IS and EP) and P1 PSP. They're great, but waifufags have taken over the series. It's why we'll likely never see content for those games ever again. Same for mainline SMT, which has been shafted for 5 more Persona 5 spinoffs because Atlus hates my money.

P5's menus are objectively a massive improvement both functionally and visually.
3 undoubtedly has a better cast, story, and soundtrack though.

1 is pure garbage, 2 is alright.

P1/P2 don't have dating sim gameplay stuff (as in social stats and a freeform calendar, etc.) so they're basically just normal PSX JRPGs but dark and with high school settings. I think anyway, I never finished either and played them years ago, only answering because other retards are just saying useless shit.

I think MT/SMT games are just normal JRPGs also, although there are so many spin offs and side games and I've only played a few SNES and PS2 games out of like more than a dozen so I'm sure there's shit I don't know.

Holy shit the fucking boners I've popped because of this game.

Nostalgia fag bait
P5 has more soul than any past personas

upvote and retweet

2 > 3 > 4 > 5 > 1

Wrong.
>P5
Style
>P3
Substance

both have soul
arguably P5 has more soul but that doesn't mean P3 has any less soul

SMT IV is the biggest pleb filter out of all the megaten games

but it's the easiest of the series
good game though

Yes, it is quite easy, but that is why it is a pleb filter. There are so many things that make it memorable, and the OST is fucking amazing.

>pleb filter
You mean pleb magnet, it's the most popular one

Is smt 4 the dark souls 2 of smt?

Nocturne would be the biggest pleb magnet in the series. Yes, it flopped at launch, but now every motherfucker in the world has played it. Great game though

No, it's Dark Souls 3

Do you have a single fact to back that up?

I have never played this game(i don't even own a PlayStation 4) but i fucking love Miss Elizabeth and Velvet twins.

I just wish p5's social links werent garbage.

You mean pretended to play it

No. But what I have to back up is my dick, for me to be able to thrust it into your mothers vagina once again. I will let you pick the name of your inevitable brother, so don't worry.
Yes.

You're just proving that Nocturne is the true pleb filter

No. That's like saying FF7 is a pleb filter. Everyone pretends to have played it, and supposedly loves it.

Honestly, the gameplay is just really fucking meh. P1 is a barebones first person dungeon crawler which introduces the main players of P2, so you kinda have to play it if you want more context. It's pretty short and you can autobattle through 90% of the game.
P2:IS probably has one of the best stories in the series but the gameplay is absolute ass, you have to go through a gorillion of menus every turn. It's also absolutely piss easy to the point where you don't even have to fuse your Personae a single time, since the ones you get for free for going through the story are more than enough.
P2:EP made the gameplay harder and you actually might care about fusion now, but it's mostly reused assets with a story that never really catches up to what made IS great.

It doesn't also help that their versions are fucked if you're not a nip.
P1 had a PS1 version that was heavily americanized, pic related is one of the changes made. In this image you can see both the original character and the adapted one. Guess which one is which. Then there's the PSP remake which is close to the original but has very controversial OST changes.
P2:IS never got a western release on PS1, so for a long time we only had a fan translation that was kinda eh. The PSP version is somewhat fine.
P2:EP had an official English release, but no PSP release in the west. So basically you suffer through fan translated IS into EP, or through IS PSP into EP, which makes it also kinda shit since you lose out on a lot of QoL stuff.

Basically you can play the games once for history/completion's sake, but they're really not that great.

This fills me with rage
Initial sales of the non maniax version and cozy leaving over it.

That's more like calling SMT4 a pleb filter, because FF7 broke sales records and everyone supposedly loves it

It may have filtered the absolute retards but the game itself was kinda shit and really half baked. 99% of the issues I had with IV were fixed in IVA, like, really, everything that annoyed me in IV was improved, it's crazy.

>think I'm playing Persona 3
>it's actually Poosona Pee
>level up my scat attacks to level pee
>can't beat the diarrhea dungeon

>Nocturne was shunned on release and sold so poorly that it nearly brought the company to bankruptcy
>this is the pleb magnet
>SMT4 sells out hard and ruins the series values to pander to shonenfags, becomes best selling game in the series and gets wide critical acclaim
>this is pleb filter
4babbies, please explain. I know you love that image of personaonlis whining, but that crowd didn't exist when Nocturne released

>"muhmento mori"
This was considered deep and mature in the 00s?

5's menus gave me a headache.

>game has any themes at all

That can happen if you suffer from mental problems, it's no big deal.

have you ever thought about the fact that you are alive user and under what circumstances you exist within?

Is that why it got so big with zoomers? The art style?

you like blue more than red, that's all

I'd agree with you if P3 at least attempted to explore the theme of mortality seriously. Instead it's
>I have a dead friend
>cool
>I have a dead relative
>cool
>I have the avatar of death inside me
>not cool
>humans secretly wish to die
This is not how you provoke thought about life and death.

WHEN THE MOON HITS YOUR EYE
REMEMBER THAT YOU WILL DIE
MEMENTO MORI

I was just talking about sales, not filter shit.
Only issue with IV was that journos got filtered hard by naraku.

That’s more apocalypse though

Being genuine here, I do have a health problem that makes me more prone to headaches. The doctor said it's hereditary.

That and being at the right place and the right time in terms of release

4 started it, Apocalypse made it worse. Just look at the choice of guest artists and use of furigana (reading aids for children) in the japanese version

even if P3 does it and stumbles a bit, what's the theme of P5? a consistent all around central idea of the plot? i really cant find it and if you have any idea please tell me. at least P3 knows what it wants to be.

I miss P4's original mystery aesthetic. It became groovy funtimes in every spinoff and rerelease.

P3 went way too hard with beating you over the head with its symbolism as did P5. 4 had this nice little middleground where it was there but usually not commanding your attention unless you were in a dungeon.

Raidou bros...

It's amazing how much better Raidou's animated and emotive 3D models used for dialogue are compared to P3/4's static 2D jpegs. Even when P5 got such a huge budget in comparison, the actual character models still just stand there motionless most of the time while the 2D portraits do the work
