Deep down I knew. I knew it'd be Joker or Yu if they went with Atlus. But everything seemed like the best time for mainline SMT. Surely this would be the time Persona had to wait their turn.

Nope!

The casino's a good choice, but honestly, there's a lot of good choices for a Persona 5 stage.

Kamoshida's Castle seems like it'd do really nice for platforming, and is decently recognizable.
Mementos actually is my frontrunner, because it's fairly ubiquitous, visually interesting, and has some potentially interesting geometry and stage hazards.
The Ship seems like it could have some real potential, but I admit I'm only putting it forward because I want to fight to Rivers in the Desert, damnit!
I wouldn't want them to do the Shibuya scramble, but the fact is they could, and it would be a fairly decent stage if done right.
And the real wildcard, the Velvet Room has the potential to do some real crazy poo poo as a stage, especially if you get clever and bring in elements of other Velvet Rooms.

The tears of time
Welp, wrapped up P3D (saw credits and did the Elizabeth tracks, probably not gonna plat it). I was very cynical about these new dancing games coming in, but overall it won me over. The presentation was great, the updated character models and backgrounds for P3 were awesome looking, the character scenes were the most entertaining story content I've seen in any of these Persona spinoffs (low bar, I know), and the returning voice actors all did a great job. I still wouldn't recommend it to non-fans because the rhythm game part is still adequate at best and barely changed from P4D.

The main thing I was surprised by is the side scenes they replaced the story mode with are actually a total upgrade over the P4D story mode and pretty meaty to boot. They feel like real new S-link scenes, but fully voiced and without the cheesy morality play hook most actual S-links have. Gonna poke at P4D PS4 for a bit and then roll into 5.

It's weird to me how turning on the modifier that maxes note speed actually makes the game substantially easier.

A lot of rhythm games are like that once you get to the higher difficulties.

Absolutely. Lower speed just fills the screen with notes, and it becomes extremely difficult to keep track of the order they appeared.

Preeeetty sure Nintendo would want to avoid anything related to Kamoshida in their game featuring Mario, Pikachu, etc...

I can't recall if stages have descriptions in the Smash Bros games but can you imagine? "A metaverse palace created by Suguru Kamoshida, a nasty PE teacher that physically and sexually abused his students! Good thing the Phantom Thieves crushed his desires like a goomba, YAHOO!".

So, Q2..

When you run into the p3 cast (minus the male protag), the female protag recognizes them all but they all deny any knowledge of having ever met her as the male protag is the "real" canonical character. When you meet up with the male protag a bit later, they both feel as if they are the same person. Not sure if 4th wall gag or if for story reasons exclusive to the Q2 story. Guess we will find out later.

People used to say things like "Nintendo doesn't want sex in smash, Nintendo doesn't want guns in smash" Then they added Bayonetta The Stripping Witch Who Shoots You With Her Feet Guns Then Steps On Your Balls With High Heels, ALso The Stripping Makes Her Stronger, ALSO She Literally Summons Hellspawn To Kill Pikachu As A Final Smash

The fact that Q was announced as coming over well before the Japanese launch and so far there seems to be nothing for Q2 worries me :tinfoil:

Not so far, I doubt Atlus would leave money on the table like that but it also wouldn't be the first time they passed on a western release something because it was on a system that was in the way out.

The latest EO didn't get an announcement for a long time too didn't it? They've probably only just started localization work on the game given what we've seen in the past.
