Atlus said they were going to be there with "new trailers for upcoming games."

My awful Persona opinion is I can't get really excited for P5 until I can play it on a portable device. P4:G and P3P ruined me for RPGs and I stand being shackled to a console for an 80+ hour game anymore.

Rate from 1 being the least awful and 10 being the most awful that I am less excited for Persona now that I know it stole its concept from Jojo's Bizarre Adventures.

Dude, it's not like it's a 1:1 ripoff. The only real similarity is 'powerful spirit fighting for you.' The way it's executed is completely different, Persona gets way into the characterization/personality aspect of things, showing what you might have to go through to literally get a super powerful representation of your id to shoot lightning bolts. In Jojo's it just sort of happens and everyone's response is 'woah, cool, i get to punch things super hard now.'

And, I mean, a lot of early Jojo was ripped off from Hokuto no Ken.

Why does everyone think I'm going to get in trouble?

There's also Part 4 of JoJo and Persona 4 having the same plot outline of "Japanese High Schoolers investigate serial killings in their town" but that's basically where the plot similarities stop. You can't really complain about Persona being inspired by JoJo when like 90% of Japanese media is inspired by JoJo.

jojo's has been around for like, what, 28 years? it's older than the internet. color tv had just been invented when jojo came around.

many japanese game devs and mangaka pay respect to it as their inspiration.

e: oh my god i was jokingly thinking "they'll have the TV and sign and that's it" and then that seriously was it.

I can't imagine why people were expecting any big Persona-related announcements from this after the P4G anime announcement stream from a few months ago.
