Considering that persona 5 is coming out for the ps3 getting a ps4 is a pretty bad way to get into the persona series. If you get a vita you'll have access to every main persona game released so far. A ps3 has got persona 3 fes and persona 4 as ps2 classics and the second half of persona 2 as a ps1 classic plus persona 5 when that comes out.

Captain Mog posted:I really didn't "get" Marie's character at all. It was almost as if they were lampooning some kind of stereotype but I just couldn't understand and struggled with her jumbled-up manner of speaking. And it was also annoying the way the game forced her on you every five seconds. Like, she seemed to have gently caress-all to do with the story so why would I want to date or even befriend her again? She has fuckall to do with the story because she wasn't in the original version. She's a poo poo character who is awkwardly stuck into the game and it sticks out like a sore thumb. She's the only negative that I could give the golden version and I would Rebuy P4 for the third time if they did nothing but remove her presence.

Iceclaw posted:The same way it's possible in theory to play any game unreleased in the west if you buy the thing that bypass zoning and learn japanese. See where I'm coming from? Yes, it's possible, but it's honestly too much efforts and downsides for a game that's not really worth it. Except completely different because it takes minutes to wipe a vita and buy a card and years of dedicated practice to learn Japanese. Also Persona 2 is great and anyone saying it's not is a European mad they can't buy it.

AngryRobotsInc posted:Blasted/Infernal Tokyo are alternate universes based not on the present (you not interferring), but on the choices Flynn's past life made, which is the same one Masakado references when he says Flynn has been reincarnated. Is this only confirmed in the Neutral ending? I always figured that's what was going on but never saw any confirmation on my law or chaos playthroughs. Blasted and Infernal tokyo are really cool thematically it really makes it seem like SMTIV is the sequel to a game that never got made.

Race Realists posted:Finished P3. Do I HAVE to play The Answer? I feel like it somewhat ruins the ending of the game a tad bit. You shouldn't play The Answer. Look up an LP if you want the story stuff. Play Nocturne P3 will have eased you into it's style and playing P3 and P4 back to back could easily lead to burn out.

Toadsniff posted:So SMT4 has like the best soundtrack ever. I mean listen to this poo poo and tell me your 90's JRPG self isn't just all about it. I was worried so much in the pre release that the soundtrack was gonna suck. And I turned out dead wrong, SMTIVs got the best soundtrack since the DDS games. I only wish I had been wrong about thinking the new demon designs were going to be poo poo.

Manatee Cannon posted:The game doesn't actually expect you to do that, those quests are always open. I don't think you can actually complete that quest for real until way late in the game. It's really cool that it allows you to try, though. I did it on my first try as did many others. It's really not hard if you've been playing megaten games long enough to know how to game the system.

Brother Entropy posted:you get to actually s-link all your party members S-linking party member is actually terrible because it forces their characters to be static throughout the whole game instead of growing throughout cause atlus sure is hell wasn't gonna write special dialog for each character depending on where they are in their social link arcs. Arist posted:That really ends up not mattering at all, and I'm going to say it for the billionth time, the male route of P3 is fundamentally worse than the female route. FeMC has worse music in most cases, especially the battle theme. And the difference in quality of SL is overblown in my opinion. NikkolasKing posted:Well gently caress me. This is the second time it's happened so I'm saying it now as a potential warning for others. The game crashes if you try to Fuse weapons. Just going to Antiques and clicking Fuse Weapons will shut the whole thing down. Are you playing the Ps3 ports? those versions have a ton of issues for some reason if at all possible you should hunt down original PS2 copies.

ImpAtom posted:... Uh, what? A) It should be the other way around instead of locking the social links behind the story they should change the characters perspective in the story depending on where they are on their link. B) To be honest I'm more talking about P4 and it's complete inability to let it's characters change in their social link. I just wish that we could have the fun of social linking with people but also have characters who actually develop and have arcs like in P1 and 2 instead of giving the one story scene or one level ten rank up scene and then have them act exactly the same for the rest of the game.

Arist posted:I think the solution of "let's just not give your party members links then" is going way too far though and would piss a lot of people off. I think there's probably a good middle ground somewhere. Something more a kin to the Desu2 system with some branching paths both in the story outside of it could work. I think them forcing themselves into the start social link > 9 Ranks > Date Y/N > Rank ten, new personas > and never hang out with them again is really working against them. I am glad that P4G has incentivized you to actually spend time with your girlfriends and best friends instead of forging unbreakable bonds and then ignoring them.

I think you guys are overplaying how bad raidou 1 is. It's clunky for sure, any first action game made by primarily RPG developers is likely to be. But it's pretty easy and fun and reading an LP loses out in a lot of the 20's Japanese flavor you get from actually playing it. The story is also cool as hell and the final boss is indeed awesome. It's like what 10 - 15 dollars at least try it first before you dismiss it.

Rirse posted:Yeah I was thinking going with 2. I have both versions on the Vita (Innocence Sin and Eternal Punishment), but how janky will the PS1 game be when I get done with Innocence Sin, since US didn't get the PSP remake for it? The gameplay is identical but the menus and general feel is far less sleek. The strangeness of the translation bothers me far more to be honest.

Rirse posted:Oh yeah, the names in Eternal Punishment are a hybrid of the ones from Japanese and the old Revelation Persona translation? I'm not familiar with the names in Revelations but they end up being like Hama-on and Agiaon and such. Similar enough that it doesn't cause confusion but just ends up feeling off. Likewise I believe there are no honorifics, and they had to keep some of the revelations names to keep continuity even if they were changed in localization so you see Mary in the game instead of Maki.

NikkolasKing posted:So I was going over why I didn't enjoy Innocent Sin with some people elsewhere and a fact was brought up that didn't even occur to me in spite of its obviousness. It's probably the easiest of the games released in English. If it's any consolation EP is significantly harder, you do need to engage in all the systems in it right from the start instead of just relying on the Personas Philemon gives you. Although It's still easier than say SJ or Nocturne.

Dragonatrix posted:Disagree on both fronts. SJ is probably the second easiest game released in English, even discounting how absurd reflect is; the only game easier is IV. If you only count in battle as difficulty I'm inclined to agree but SJ has much more complicated and multilayered dungeons and seeing as you spend roughly half the game running around them I'd say it factors into the difficulty. Also we both missed soul hackers which is the real easier game in English being a complete cakewalk on all fronts.

8-Bit Scholar posted:Is SMT IV: Apocalypse any good? I realize abruptly I've not played it. It's some sort of sequel to the regular SMT IV, it seems? Gameplay wise it's pretty much a complete improvement with the caveat that it's even easier than IV. Story wise it's a mildly interesting mess that is a sort of what if of the neutral end of IV.

irlZaphod posted:So I finished SMT IV last night. After complaining in here about not being able to beat Merkabah, I booted up the game for the first time in months and got him in a couple of tries. Once I brought in a party which didn't have weaknesses to Zio/Zan spells, and enough healing, it was fine really. Lucifer's Palace was a lot easier than Purgatory I found. It didn't feel as long, and it just had a couple of easy enough mini-bosses at the beginning. Lucifer himself seemed ok, I died to him once or twice but beat him then. That move which returns a Demon to your stock is such a dick move. I abused Tetrakarn a little bit, and had a few demons with Null Ice. Man I would stick a game in between those two, they're very similar and it's easy to get burnt out.

Luckily Apocalypse actually has a usable map.

Last Celebration posted:So for Soul Hackers, is there any guidelines for leveling, like are there any outright bad stats like how Strength is bad in SMT4 because it does the same exact thing as Dex but worse? Also general pointers are cool too. Pick sexy for nemissa as it's the earliest access to almighty for her. Your mc doesn't get magic so he should be all str and nemissa should be all magic focused. Your z guy whose name I forgot doesn't cost mag to keep summoned so you him and nemissa are going to be your main crew for most the game. You should really only have to summon more guys for bosses. Soul hackers, especially with the 3ds features, is one of the easiest megaten games so don't stress too much
