Mumblyfish posted:What hints could you possibly drop in Persona 4? It doesn't have a terribly deep or difficult combat system, and the dungeons are almost entirely identical. There'd be one massively highly rated message outside the first dungeon: "Use the three buffs and debuffs and you'll basically win by default." After that, nothing. No idea to tell you the truth. Never played P4, but in P3 each section of the dungeon usually had demons of the same 2-3 classes, so I'd just fuse a persona with their weaknesses and use them.

Supposedly an element fans most requested but still to be detailed is included. I hope it is an addition of a female MC.Snot Man posted:New insane theory now that I got a closer look: Mary is Metis in clever disguise. I get the impression she's Velvet Room related. Her bag and hat design seem to point towards that. That circle emblem on her bag is similar to what Margaret etc wear and that V pin on her hat might be an indicator too.

It looks like P4P got a significant graphics upgrade. edit: the Famitsu thing says about Marie that she "looks younger than the other characters", how the hell are we supposed to tell? She sure looks like generic anime teenager age to me, same as the rest of them. Samurai Sanders fucked around with this message at 17:57 on Aug 31, 2011 |

Cityinthesea posted:Where's the confirmation of no female MC? probably won't be buying it if that's the case I think the confirmation is them not saying there is one by now. I mean, it's not impossible that they're playing it close till a later announcement but with all the stuff they're adding in dialogue and cutscene-wise already a decent portion of it would have to be re-done for a female character. edit: Wacky spa hijinks anime cutscene is a good example of this

One of the new, highly requested features had better be a cutscene skip function.

3upMoon posted:I get the impression she's Velvet Room related. Her bag and hat design seem to point towards that. That circle emblem on her bag is similar to what Margaret etc wear and that V pin on her hat might be an indicator too. I get that impression too, hence my first theory of it being Elizabeth. After the fight with Margaret, you find out she's left the Velvet Room to go look for a way to save Minato, and the light novels apparently say that she teamed up with Aigis to do so. I could imagine her just coincidentally winding up in a shithole like Inaba with all the weird stuff going on. Now I'm placing bets on the Metis theory, though. The end of The Answer has her chilling in the Velvet Room and saying that she belongs to the "other side". She was supposed to have been reabsorbed into Aigis, being her Shadow and all, but I wouldn't put it past Atlus to retcon her into just still existing as a new Velvet Room attendant and/or joining Elizabeth and Aigis' fan-favorite A-Team. Either way, since the game was so full of obvious Jesus parallels, I can't imagine that someone called "Mary" would have no ties to Persona 3. ...But of course, we barely know anything about Mary, and if they're going to go with the bullshit fanwank route, I'd prefer if they just went completely nuts and tied her to Maki/Mary from Persona 1 and 2. Okay I think I can turn the switch off now.

Wow! Thank you for the high quality screenshots, Rinkles. YES! My suspicions were correct and this was a screenshot of an added Halloween event at Junes! And oh man, is that the MC dressed up, too? You know, something about Marie's design just bugs me. I know it's too early to tell, but she just looks like a Mary Sue character inserted into the game. Her design is doesn't really fit the rest of the aesthetic of the Persona 4 characters. Chie in a fighting Chinese waitress dress (?) is the extra I didn't know I always wanted. Getting more excited for this game.

There is no way she isn't linked to the Velvet room with that "V" button on her hat.

That's what's keeping me from hating her outright right, haha. Since the Velvet Room attendants are supposed to look ridiculous and out of place. She's still setting off my Mary Sue Insert alarm, though. My dream fan requested feature would be to cut out just about all the scenes with Hanako.

I really hope that they add a way to chose what abilities you want to inherit while fusing, instead of just backing out a billion times until you get what you want, but I doubt it will happen.

Didn't they add some random girl to the Innocent Sin remake who gave out sidequests? Maybe she does that as well as Margret.

I think this is what they're doing, the one screenshot showing the fusion menu showed the persona being fused with 2 blank skills instead of 2 named skills, so I can only hope this means they learned we all loved Devil Survivor's fusion method.

If that was the case, I would definitely do my replay of Persona 4 on the P4G Vita instead of my PS2 version. I still have to get the true ending, and do the non party member and family social links...

Make up for it by letting the player date any gender please. Mary/Mari just looks...too "all over the place" in comparison to how streamlined the other character designs have been. It looks a little too obvious with trying to up the school girl fetish elements.

Considering how some are describing her design... maybe "Mary" is actually referring to "Mary Sue" :O With this release though, I am glad I held off on playing through P4.

I didn't even realize how much this would improve the game until you mentioned it. What's the point of semi-randomly assigning skills anyway, other than "That's how we did it in Nocturne/P3". All it meant was wasting ten minutes hitting X and Circle until they came up anyway.

I wonder if Marie will have some connection to the fighting game? Like Vincent in P3P, but with a larger role.
