Yes please, especially if the writing is as good. Labrys’s story is probably the best writing in all of the franchise.



Also the best English voice acting

Sounds like a mobile game.

Last SRPG I played with such a small lineup of playable characters in the map was Front Mission 3 on the PS1

Kind of crazy how people just don't seem to be having Persona 5 Tactica like at all. I do tend to figure they are making a big miscalculation on the artstyle as a big part of it no matter what they end up coming out with gameplay/story wise.

I'm just fully done with P5 until they announce the fighting game

People say bigger is better.

But for the first time in my life, I think I've gone too far.
Chibi Ann is just bending slightly to one side, in a sitting pose. Normal Ann is just bent over with one arm lower to the ground.

Both of those are things normal people do every day??? Those are no Escher Girls poses.

Also as a model I'm sure Ann has had to do way more difficult poses.

When I first looked at it I thought her left knee was her hip and thought it looked real weird as well. Now that you've mentioned it, the image makes wayyy more sense yeah.

Yeah I'm a little confused by that - the "people have spines" stuff isn't meant to imply that people literally cannot bend their backs. I think it's usually referring to images of women whose backs are twisted in unnatural ways (so you can see both their front and back in the same pose).

I think if you just glance at that image it's easy to think her left knee is her hip/butt but no she just has big Powerpuff Girl feet

Most turn-based CRPGs give you a small party (around 4 units) as well. If you want to go further, in the tabletop versions of those (and other tactics-oriented TRPGs) you almost always control only one unit. If you want to go even further than that, dungeon-crawling turn-based roguelikes could also count as tactics games with a singular player controlled unit.

yeah both those poses seem, totally fine esp the first one?? they're nowhere near unrealistically spine twisty poses you see elsewhere like on a comic cover or w/e

Tbh I am struggling to understand what's happening with the lower half of the chibi one, it's like those optical illusion photos where the legs in the photo belong to someone else

Edit: oh that's her tail, I think that resolved it

I'm potentially interested in the tactics game despite the style not being to my exact taste, they've just not shown much of the gameplay and it's coming out in a jam packed time for games so it'll have to be pretty spectacular to make me buy it.

That's normal for her. One of her default poses in P5 when her turn is selected looks extremely uncomfortable and feline, I guess cause she's supposed to be "panther".

The only nit pick about the chibi pose is that at first glance, it looks like her legs should be crossed, but the shadowing makes that impossible.

A powerful construct of the Collective Unconscious as defined by Jung that takes the form of *spins wheel* Bondye and is based on the collective desire *spins other wheel* to be buried in the ground as a metaphor for capitalism or some poo poo I dunno.

Base P5 down. That was a much easier final boss than I was expecting, and it had logical gimmicks. In terms of design definitely better than the last bundle of palaces.

Onto the Royal content, but only after a much needed break.

I really like the setup for Royal, even if the big picture of what’s happening is pretty obvious to me. It definitely injects something weird and unsettling into the game, which I think helps it a lot.

ai voice stuff wasnt nearly as big when royal came out and its unlikely theyd randomly use it for a single line. like the person said above its probably just a bad splice job. splicing two different takes together is relatively common, but when done badly it can be really jarring.
