Junpei is probably the best part of the opening. Besides Koromaru of course.

I used him all game and it was fine. Game is easy enough not to matter what comp you use.

Yeah I feel like the Tartarus bosses that are actually difficult are going to give you trouble regardless of team composition and most of the rest of the game isn't difficult enough to force specific comps. Like, my playthrough of the game I just used whoever was lowest-level at the time because of brain worms.

Ken and Koro are probably ditching Elec and Fire bc they're backporting Kouha and Eiha.

It seems like the gameplay will be so radically different that most old things like that won't apply. Looking forward to it. Might be the last mainline Persona game I ever play if they never release 6. Maybe the plan is to wait so long that 3, 4, and 5 can plausibly be remade again for the PS7 or whatever. Repeat for the PS10. In 200 years we'll be playing full immersion VR Persona 5.

Koromaru was never unusable, he was just kind of redundant and his buff was worse than Junpei's. He had multitarget Agi though, so that was good.

"You know that 'Persona' game your grandparents are always raving about from their youth? Well, it's coming back as a braindance, and with the characters and setting adapted to the present day. Since robots are now normal, Aigis is an alien. Dogs also went extinct decades ago, so Koromaru is now a dog-sized praying mantis."

Junpei posted:Ken and Koro are probably ditching Elec and Fire bc they're backporting Kouha and Eiha. Koro will still keep Agi since Cerberus always had Fire resistance, unlike Nemesis/Kala-Nemi. His whole thing is being dual element since Junpei was... not very good at casting magic. Anyway it's very likely we'll get some other way of teaching party members new skills besides levelling up. P4 had social links and bike rides, P5R had the jazz club.

This is actually something of a plot point in P4 Arena -- The way that game presents it, Evokers are required to summon Personas in the Real World, and when the P3 Crew enters the TV World, one of the first things they notice is that they're suddenly able to summon theirs so easily that they almost do it without conscious thought.

I mean there's nothing stopping it from serving both purposes. Does make it funny when they do use them for their instant kills tho.

Yeah they use their evokers for their Instant Kills so I don't think it's a modelling issue. They actually put a lot of effort into the model animations for that game.

Well hit Kingdom 2 in Tactica. It's not.. bad. The music is fantastic, and it looks stylish as hell. Just.. the gameplay is still lacking that that tactical depth. I appreciate the core message of "doing nothing in the face of injustice is complicity" though.

It's never going to be super complex but they at least add in more mechanics and wrinkles that you have to play around.

Full versions of Iwatodai Dorm, Unavoidable Battle, Mass Destruction, and It's Going Down Now in this thread: https://twitter.com/Persona_Central/status/1743565395905130532?t=Tc6LjrodSoda6TnLqNvF_w&s=19 The instrumentals are generally pretty weak here and they replaced the rapper on Iwatodai Dorm with Lotus Juice (because the other rap was from a CD they bought the rights to), but It's Going Down Now is still pretty good.

Meowywitch posted:God the new music is soooo bad most of it is a bit worse than the original in a way that i will probably get used to fairly quickly but iwatodai dorm is bad even in a vacuum they also changed the lyrics for some reason. i don't know if this was a copyright issue and they've been forced to make Legally Distinct Iwatodai Dorm and that's why it actually legitimately sucks as opposed to just being not as good as the original it's coming out on pc though so i guess this poo poo will be modded back to the originals within like 2 hours of release, a mod which i will actually get just for this one song

AlphaKeny1 posted:It's been so incredibly long since I played p3 but that was basically how I remembered it, like koromaru isn't bad he's just outclassed by some of the other characters and for bosses I'd rather have the better characters. Honestly P3 balance is kinda whack, because just about every character had notable flaws other than Yukari and Mitsuru. Junpei lags from the middle of the game, and while he's a competent enough physical attacker and has a decent buff, he only shines on select days when Vorpal Blade peaks. Still your best physical character at the end of the game other than MC. Akihiko has tons of utility but is also stuck doing all that utility by himself, has less SP than the dedicated mages, and learns zero physical skills to go with his solid Strength. Also poor Luck for whatever that matters in P3. Koromaru's already detailed. Aigis' learning curve is really, really bad. She's fine once she learns all her kit but she's practically a liability for most of Tartarus since she can't hit any weaknesses outside of the occasional physical-weak enemies (which everyone can take advantage of), and she has like a 25+ level gap between new offensive moves. If you're not running Junpei and/or Koromaru she's also like Akihiko where she's doing all the buffs by herself. Ken is really just worse Yukari other than learning Mediarama earlier. Cruel Attack is nice and I guess Zionga/Ziodyne could come in handy but otherwise Yukari is better 90% of the time. Shinjiro, lol. He would be good otherwise. Yukari is pretty much a perfectly designed mage/healer other than not learning Wind Boost/Amp. She's squishy but not as much as Ken, her only other real flaw is that a lot of enemies pack Elec attacks. Mitsuru is also pretty much a perfectly tailored mage with just enough utility that she's not a one-trick pony. She could do with improvements here and there but honestly her kit is about as good as you can expect of a P3 character.

Yukari and Mitsuru also have major problems, though? Like, Yukari's AI is completely busted and she takes forever to learn her second-tier spells, and Mitsuru is constantly wasting turns on Marin Karin, Tentarafoo, and Mind Charge (Mind Charge being actively a waste of turns in most versions of 3 because the damage multiplier is 1.9x instead of 2.5 or even just 2x)
