I picked up Persona 2 PSP. I thought the load times might have been exaggerated but when you have a loading bar before every fight you have done something wrong.

So how does Soul Hackers play? I know it's not like the Raidou games, isn't it a dungeon crawler a la Persona 1/2? Please don't say it's like P1, I want to be excited for this.

I'm lucky in that I discovered Atlus games through Persona 4, so a lot of the games remade are brand new to me. Well, even if they weren't, they'd probably hit my wallet anyway, as I'm the type of gamer to replay games 5+ years afterwards, and remakes tend to be very enticing. ETA: ^^^^^^^ Guuuuuys, stop it! I'm playing Persona 4 right now and really enjoying it, stop making me visualize a Persona 5 that's not a perfect sequel!

Sometimes, just sometimes, I ponder whether you actually utterly detest the franchise. Then I remember the P3P thread and wave the silly idea away.

There's always the chance that Atlus will realize a -third- highschool dating sim entry to the series would be overkill and maybe try to mix things up. Right?

The backstory of the original Megami Tensei from 1987 posted:Akemi Nakajima is a high school student and a computer programming prodigy who created a program that can summon demons from Makai. His original intentions for the program were to gain revenge on a classmate who had fought with him. He brings his friend Yumiko Shirasagi, a transfer student that became interested in Nakajima and found to be the reincarnation of the goddess Izanami, to combat the malicious demons he unleashed. Complaining about this series of games being like animes is really insane dudes

And while we're dreaming maybe they'll follow P5 with a new mainline SMT game rather than dumping a half dozen more remakes on the next gen handhelds.

^^^^ lolTechnique posted:Will you get to date your Robo-Daughter? (Don't worry, she's a robot, so it's ok) We got really into making up poo poo about Persona 5 in one of the threads and I wish I could remember which one. Maybe it was the last megaten thread. Whatever it was, it was gold. I hope we can look back on it when P5 finally does come out and see how prophetic we turned out to be.

Honestly though just make them college students or adults who work at an office or something so you can keep the whole social sim aspect that attracted so many people while still keeping it somewhat fresh.

Do this, but kill off the S-Links so that the character development can finally feel natural again instead of DING! YOU LEVELED UP YOUR FRIENDSHIP. TOMMY IS NO LONGER AFRAID OF SPIDERS.

Rinkles posted:Atlus now have, what, roughly a 4:1 ratio of recycled games to newly self developed ones? I never played Soul Hackers sooooo, good call if they bring it out here. In fact, given their games have been fairly niche save for recently, it's not a bad call to take those old ideas and make them even better. At least if there's anything to be learned from Tactics Ogre on the PSP. And there's that lazy/stupid anime descriptor again. I think the lack of realism in Persona 3/4 is why it made me appreciate the use of school setting. If anything, it's a nice slice of culture, for better or worse. The school setting feels more meaningful because of it, rather than Persona 1 and 2 which were still ultimately dungeon crawlers in a school setting, but with only a fragment of content that answered the question: "Why is this setting important/vital to the theme of the game?" I don't think one is superior to the other, I just got different messages/meaning from each half of the Persona games. Persona 1 and 2 are really different from Persona 3 and 4. Whatever direction they go in, I'd hope that one day people could tell the difference between a stupid generalization (anime), and actually processing content with some thought.

Couldn't see that anyone had posted this so I might aswell do it. Two new P4G pv's, one has nothing new in it but this one has some new opening hijinxes(Teddie reindeer costume etc, apparently a Dojima costume for Yu aswell though I couldn't spot it) and a new song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xAD1VmLXz14&feature=player_embedded!

TOMMY IS NO LONGER AFRAID OF SPIDERS. I don't mind the idea of there being some mechanical bonuses for hanging around characters. I think Devil Survivor 2 handled it a little better than Persona 4, though, since the events that could rank you up actually varied based on what was going on with the rest of the plot.

I did work for them, and I do have contempt for them. Also I don't see why someone can't hate what they do for a living, or themselves. You must not have much of an imagination.

Well obviously someone can hate their own work, but not someone who went out of their way to promote it so much in these forums in the past. I have more than adequate imagination, thank you for the attempted insult.

All of the "lol anime" talk is kind of trite. There are actual animes of the anime games. The dork oroborus comes full circle as a matter of marketing. Why yes water is wet.
