For all the problems I have with the game, Devil Survivor 2 had some good paths I think. Neither Ronaldo or whatever his name is (I seriously almost typed Naoya) were clear Law/Chaos and while the latter did come off as a complete dickhead, Ronaldo wasn't really charismatic either. There are two other paths, one of which is clearly the "best" one (the only ending I've gotten is the bad Daichi one), but at least you're able to agree with the two antagonists on some level.

Endorph posted:I think the point wasn't 'they're still really stupid' so much as, like Yosuke says, that facing yourself isn't a one-time thing. They weren't magically fixed by their dramatic shadow fights, they're still gonna slip up and make mistakes, and in the few months since P4 ended they've all kinda gotten lax. It's the same reason none of them have their ultimate personas. But they really are stupid. The illusion part of the plot exemplifies it perfectly, it's painfully obvious what's going on but a lot of them just do not get it until it is explained to them. It was bad in the main game as well, most of the times they meet up to talk about the case it's pretty frustrating how thick they're being. The police are the very worst about it though.

With Q being non-canon but its "place" in the P3 timeline being the cancelled school festival she would still know then. Hopefully.

A 4chan user translated the Elizabeth win quotes, and it turns out "The boy from before" is Sho, who she takes an interest in, not P3MC.

I, personally, am disturbed at the fact that the fans of a video game series where you can ally with Lucifer and commit mass genocide would like such a character.

I meant "It's too late" as in I've been quoted multiple times with the tag, so it's pointless to edit it. It seems noteworthy because I haven't seen Adachi things on sale in general, even at conventions where they had whole Persona sections with Marie things.

Theo can be the P3MC's attendant and he is canon, I doubt there will be more than a line or two that references the Girl MC from P3P. Which is a real shame, because she rules. Please replace Marie and P3MC with Adachi and FemC and I will buy PQ day one, thanks in advance.

Yeah, the female MC gets a choice but the male MC doesn't, I guess because they were supremely dedicated to not writing a single new line of dialogue for the male MC's story.

A bitter part of me says they probably wanted to avoid including a gay dating scene since that is also a pretty common reason for avoiding that kind of thing, but Persona is generally not as weird about that so it's probably just more lack-of-new-content.

Yeah, now that I think about it, the text said "She" but the VA said "He." It was the first event where you wake up in the hospital too, so it's not like it was hidden in tons of dialogue late in game. They probably could have shoehorned in something with Inaba for the MC, but it would have had to be Yukiko again since only Chie, Kanji, and Yukiko were living in town at the time.

I mean, why tease like that, ya know? I really love the concept of being able to choose to be able to play a female protagonist, but I haven't seen Atlus mention anything about that being in current/future projects. I know it is mostly played by dudes, but I wish they would at least acknowledge or express want to reach out to more womenfolk (or more $$ in general).

busydelicious posted:Which totally makes me hope that the FemMC can be unlocked in Persona Q. I mean, why tease like that, ya know? I really suspect this is a budget issue. The games are all made on shoestring budgets and adding a second character route would require a lot more scripting and dialogue writing and voice acting even for something as simple as P3P. Which sucks, mind you, but I think it's less a case of will than way considering they seemed to enjoy the P3FMC route.
