Looking at the Nintendo Switch specs, the mobile CPU equivalent of the Tegra X1 processor is the Snapdragon 808, which was released in 2014. If the Switch can run Royal, a relatively modern phone should be able to run a game based on the same engine but customized for mobile.

How many characters get spoken cameos in other games actually, from my memory, there's Yukiko in P3P and Chihiro in P4. Not counting the Velvet Room people of course.

Trish in P3 definitely counts  Also I'd say Tanaka in 4 and 5 are more akin to cameos as well, since he has a more reduced role as time goes on, though you could probably argue either way.

Commander Keene posted:During the school trip to Tatsumi Port Island. The P4 cast visits Gekkoukan and Chihiro greets them, IIRC. She's overcome the shyness she displays in P3 and her dialog implies that it's because of the protagonist of that game. She's even the new student council president after Mitsuru stepped down, so I just take it to assume she's executed Hidetoshi and Kenji at some point.

I think it's about time for a historical Persona. If it must be pseudo-modern set it the 80's or something. Have it star Kiryu even.

Honestly I'm not sure anything will ever match the glee of strolling around Tokyo and having everything narrated by the talking cat perching on your shoulder or hiding in your desk; they have to do something wild to keep up. Also played a bunch more TMS, turns out there's a couple of ballads in there I do enjoy. Tsubasa remains consistently the best, and the player characters shtick of being told how special and important he is for being everyone's moral support and consistently responding "I didn't really do anything, you're the one who actually confronted your issue," is almost endearing, but I'm soured that every single female character falls in love with him and he is entirely oblivious. At least with silent protagonists I can imagine they actually turn people down, but Itsuki is textually unaware of his supernatural sexual magnetism and will not take a hint even though he can pick up on literally any other social cue. I hate this trope.

For whatever that's worth, considering its chinese gacha status. Honkai Impact 3 looks as good and that game came out in 2016, phones have been doing these graphics for almost a decade.

I tried it myself after playing P5, P4G and P5R first. Tartarus is not good at being proto-Mementos, and the choice to adapt a version where unless inside Tartarus, you can’t actually walk anywhere was just bizarre. Got to the 4th or 5th “big” boss and gave up. Too much tedium for me. 4G on the other hand, is great, with less QoL things to miss from P5/R

At least P3P port comes with modular difficulty settings. I set the exp gain rate to high pretty early on, and there's a setting to get a full party heal instead of a game over if your MC gets knocked out, which I definitely used on some of the tower bosses when the alternative was grinding. It's missing a lot of other QoL features, but the "gently caress this specific challenge, I just want to progress" button is a big add and I for one am glad of it. E: HaB posted:and the choice to adapt a version where unless inside Tartarus, you can’t actually walk anywhere was just bizarre. As I've heard, it was based chiefly on this being the version with the female main character. They couldn't put out both her content and the FES engine without a full-on remake, and from what I've seen of the original set of social links, this was the correct choice between those two.

How so? I barely know anything about the male MC or his implied personality, but from my understanding (major P3 spoilers), he's kind of gloomy and serious while the female MC is bubbly and cheerful, and they're obviously both determined friends who manage to fully internalize the inevitability of death and carry on regardless. Of those, I'm far more compelled by the one who insists on having as much of a good time as she can until the end and going out with a smile than I am by the direct Jesus analogue. I also think that makes her a better fit for the ____Sun____ social link that I assume is the one everyone is alluding to as the best.

I had a question about social links in Persona 5. If you hang out with someone and it doesn't up their social link level is it counting towards some invisible meter or should you only do ones that will go up when you visit them? I assume.the former but wanted to make sure.

Sometimes, there aren't enough points in an event to rank someone up, so you need to do an interim hangout to get those points. Later, the Fortune Confidant will unlock the ability to spend money for points once a day, so you can do that instead.

I've been replaying FES recently, really holds up pretty well. Game oozes atmosphere and the characters being allowed to have arcs instead of a single plot blip on introduction helps the team feel more like a group of people with differing interests and goals coming together over time rather than a generic friend group roaming from plot point to plot point absorbing the people it meets and stripping them of any agency or ability to pique interest. If you're going FES there's a control patch that'll let you take direct control of the party as well as an undub available. If you're going P3P, just from what I've seen, I'd tell you to grab the ISO and play it on PPSSPP. The Ai upscale they did on the Steam version looks horrendous.

Yeah in terms of actual story and theme P3's is still amazing, it's just more of a gameplay/QoL and Social Link issue. There was a video I watched that said that P3 has the best theme, P4 has the best setting, and P5 has the best story. Obviously that's pretty subjective but I think it's a good general overview, with whichever has the best cast being up to personal tastes.

P5 is far and away my favorite, but if we're singling out one thing each game clearly does best, I'd say style/presentation is P5's thing, moreso than story.

Oh yeah P5 oozes style out the wazoo but I think that's also a partial consequence of it being a much newer game on a newer console, they were able to do a lot more and had also learned from the previous games.

P5 has a more ambitious premise and a more intricate plot, it just doesn't always execute it very well and the seams can get very obvious. P3's story is simpler but also more cohesive, and its themes are easier to work with in a mainstream work. If P3's story has a major flaw is that its (human) villains are very underwhelming, but even then they contribute to the thematic whole.
