Dragonatrix posted:I'm gonna let you in on a secret: being a silent protagonist and having a personality are not mutually exclusive. True, but I feel like SMT's style of silent protagonist is really pretty generified Like, describe Serph, Raidou, Yuki, and the Demi-Fiend without using physical descriptors. Inflammatory posted:the other guy said "explicitly defined," which i took to mean "actually says things". Or, at the very least the dialog options have a clearly defined sense of the person. Even Maya and Tatsuya when they are the silent protags have dialog choices completely outside of what we understand their personalities to be.

Endorph posted:Jokes aside, yeah. I wouldn't mind if, say, there's a a single scene of some cops chatting about your crimes, and Akihiko and Chie are there, but I wouldn't want them to be major characters. Given that the protagonists of 5 are a crew of phantom thieves, I'm hoping for a Naoto cameo or mention. Like the police ask for her help, only for her to turn them down due to other commitments.

The P3/P4 protagonists actually do have personalities, they are just flexible ones. The P3 protagonist is quiet and kind of sullen with dialogue options that let him be a bit of a dick or surprisingly thoughtful. The P3 fem protagonist in comparison is more outgoing and cheerful and has overall more positive dialogue choices. Yu is more openly sarcastic and tends to have more blunt or joking character dialogue than either of the P3 protagonists.

Given the seven deadly sins themes, I'd hazard a guess we've either got 6-7 party members in total or seven major bosses similar to the 12 shadows of P3.

Guesses on the protag's persona? My bet is going back to Greek myth so they can use Prometheus, who stole fire from the gods. Otherwise, they might go Norse with Loki.

Izanagi and Orpheus both have similair journeys to the underworld to rescue a loved one. Are there any more myths like that? That is, if they are even trying to have similar thematic goals as the last two games.

A previous poster guessed Garuda, which seems the best fit to me. Between the wings on the MC's persona, the mask having a bird-like shape, the fire imagery, and the red color scheme I think it fits pretty drat well. Edit: Also a noble thief.

Inanna/Ishtar went to the underworld for kicks and then needed to use one of her lovers as a scapegoat when she got stuck there. Does that count? There's also Odin sending his son Hermod to try to get his other son Baldur back. Strange Quark fucked around with this message at 00:07 on Feb 6, 2015 |

Now that we have seen all the wonders that P5 is going to give us, my kokoro wish is for more granularity in costumes. Let me purchase and receive dozens of tops, bottoms, and headgear that I then combine as I like. A sentai mask to make a tux really pop perhaps. A Yaso High blazer atop board shorts. Surely a PlayStation 4 and many earnest Japanese men can offer me this.
