I admit I wouldn't be sad if Naoto was mysteriously absent from this port.

I would, but that's because I'm gonna get tired of kicking the poo poo out of people as Chie and I need someone else to enjoy before going back to poo poo Slapping with Chie Satonaka.

Yeah, Persona is a franchise that doesn't have a hard enough time being taken seriously. What it really needs is an unbalanced joke of a fighting game to really drive the point home.

At least it would be fun and gain a better reputation for the series than "Robot sexual innuendo."

I know you guys are too cool to like certain aspects of the game, but those aspects are the reason they were able to remake it twice and sell nearly combined million copies. I guess it's like democracy, there always has to be some vocal minority crying out against what works for everyone else.

That "everyone else" happens to be the same people who are jumping with joy for the bath scene being animated.

Considering that is after they meet Joker and see their demon, you should not be missing anything. After seeing an evil clown bastard appear from cell phones and some monsters fighting for you, I think a regular demon wouldn't surprise anyone.

I don't even know what we're arguing about. I'm saying that I don't like the fanservice and it seems to me like Justice is saying that I should just deal with it and not complain because it sells the game or something like that but I'm sure that's not the point he's trying to make, so I'm confused.

The bath part of the game is where the girls talk about how smooth and milky Naoto's skin is and how she doesn't have any flab. They start feeling her up and stuff too if I'm remembering correctly. That's why I was rolling my eyes at that screenshot and wondering if they were going to fanservice it up some more.

That is exactly what happened in that scene.

Okay... and?

EDIT: Anyways, I joined MegaTen with DDS2 and then continued from there and even picked up some of the older games. I love Digital Devil Saga because of the story, characters and it's actually a pretty fun game to play despite having the hardest boss in Megaten history. Raidou follows DDS as my favorite MegaTen series because the game is a pretty good action-rpg with a decent story and I find it a lot of fun.

Plus Raidou's sideburns are amazing.

So I was playing P3P and my friend asks me what game I'm playing.

"It's called Persona."
"What's it about?"
"You kill demons by shooting yourself in the head."
"Really?! Dude, that's pretty metal."
"Yeah, look at this guy. He's a skeleton with scythe."
"Holy poo poo!"

It's great to have friends who react to games like these with such awe.

This looks more like Arcana Heart than it does JoJo.

EDIT: So what? Is it like, only a P4 fighter but with Aigis as an extra character? Because it really doesn't seem like a crossover beyond that.

Persona 1. Mind you they are all tedious to play but P3 and P4 are a bit less tedious because the actual battle mechanic is handled well enough.

I guess I played P2 wrong then because my priority was getting the advanced persona while holding myself over with any Persona I got from cards until I got them. Then I just went through the game wrecking poo poo with the advanced Persona.

Use cheats and then get yourself the best Persona and just mow through the story, that's what I did on my second playthrough and I found the game far more enjoyable.

I got the Neutral ending because the three alignments were monumentally retarded (or at least the humans supporting them were). Felt it was a pretty solid ending, all things being equal. If I play through it again I'll probably go for the TDE I guess.

TDE is the only other worthwhile ending and it's mainly because out of that, you get an extra boss, Dante from Devil May Cry and the ending is kind of awesome if completely loving loopy.

Iceclaw posted:

How was he whining about here? I mean, yeah, he did, at the beginning of the game, up to the point he confront his shadow, but afterward, I don't recall him commenting on the fact she hated him. If anything, Yosuke's motivation to catch her killer instead of just ditching it because she "hated" him, because that's the right thing to do is one of his more admirable characteristics.

The relationship between Chidori in Junpei, in my opinion was pretty badly written: Chidori's death was pretty melodramatic, and on the whole, I could not get past the fact Junpei kept on coming to see Chidori at the Hospital. It gave some slightly stalkerish vibes to their relationship.

So essentially what you're saying is that even though Yosuke used his classmate's death (One he knew personally) as an excuse to play hero and then said "Okay, I'm going to be a decent person for a minute" then he's completely redeemable and admirable? But Junpei going to take care of a girl he trusted and had strong emotions for despite what she had done to him to previously is somehow creepy? That doesn't seem really fair.

I hate Yosuke, I've hated him since I first played the game. He spends a good part of the game whining and bitching about every little situation that he is either directly responsible for or isn't even related to. He's a jackass to Kanji about his problems, he's poked fun at Naoto for her problems too, he's not thoughtful of the girls wishes at all and his entire S. Link can be summarized in "This place bores the hell out of me but I guess I'll stay." He even goes on to whine about Chie spending his money when he did not at all think for even a second that sending a newly human Teddie to Junes may have been a bad idea.
