gonna need more cheese...australia has a lot of crackers

If you want to gun for a specific alignment ending, start thinking about it now. Neutral is kinda tough to get because you need to have a balance between Chaos and Law answers to alignment questions that are asked all throughout the game.

When are those questions asked? Are they the things the demons ask me? I thought those are just about convincing them to join you, which so far is annoyingly random and it'd be cool if there's an easier way to do that.

Currently I'm looking for that dbag in naraku, there was some chimera type boss before that that wrecked me until I found a demon with dia. Dying in like 2-3 hits is pretty rough.

No, demons asking you stuff in combat has nothing to do with your alignment. It's dialogue choices with NPCs outside of combat.

I gather the success of your answers while recruiting is basically random?

I'm very early in the game so I don't think I've even had a dialogue choice yet.

Honestly neutral in SMT4 is really only tough to get if you're meticulously minmaxing your answers to ensure you're neutral at all times because that's where you hit the 'come on are you making GBS threads me who designed this' spot. Pick what choices you want, if you're going for neutral, just wobble back and forth between your buddies and pick what you like if you can't tell for sure, and don't sweat it if you're one or the other for a while.

Meh... #overrated

Shadowrun Hong Kong, Tales of Zesteria, Dragonquest Heroes, MGSV, Trails of Cold Steel (and maybe Tales SC even) and many many more. Considering we don't even have date for Japan, 2015 is somewhat dubious for Persona 5 but you never know, it may come toward end of December if they are almost wrapped up with localization.

I think we'll get SC in 2015; they just put up another blog post about it and didn't go back on the previous "before Cold Steel" statement which is also 2015 (they're already starting on the sequel).

I'm still really iffy on P5 being a 2015 title not in the sense that I don't believe that it'll release in 2015 but in the sense that they've probably super rushed it. Like, if they were working really closely with the dev team during development maybe not. But if that were the case you'd expect them to have been hyping up their worldwide or near-worldwide release and how amazing/new it is for them. As it is now/as they've presented things to the public it just feels like "gotta get them persona bucks this holiday season". Part of that outlook's probably just my becoming disillusioned in regards to atlus over the past few years, but at the same time I'd rather be pleasantly surprised than disappointed.

Eh, I'm not terribly worried, P4 came out of basically nowhere too and that was pretty much fine.

Persona 4 was cool because they knew the PS3 was a thing and still chose to release it on PS2 instead of delaying it to use the fancier graphics. Although I might be in the minority who thought the misty bloom effect they added (to disguise it being last-gen) looked good and made sense since Inaba is apparently prone to a lot of misty weather.

There weren't many PS3s sold in Japan at that point and a pretty good amount of them were backwards compatible anyway. It's a niche series in the west (even more so back then) so a PS3 version would have been a waste of money for sure.
