Yeah, P5 is absurdly huge, not in the least because it's set in a city instead of Shittown, Crapville.

The most cat appropriate answer would be "they know they just don't care".

is this game gonna b good & cool for someone that nevr played any other persona game before? is there an easy way to play older persona games without buying a ps3???

they're all self contained, outside of 4 having some callbacks to 3, but that's more like a Cool Bonus thing than anything.
if you are interested though:
All the PSP ones i list are easy to emulate
Persona 1 is a pretty rough play, but it has a PSP version
Persona 2 actually does interesting things, but has a weird problem where we only got 1 of the PSP remakes that have a lot of nice updates
Persona 3 has a PSP version and should also be a PS2 classic, the PSP version being the easier one to emulate because it's cut down to a more VN style in the non dungeon areas (but has a new story route with a female MC that changes the SLinks and arranges some other stuff)
Persona 4 i dont know if was ever released as a PS2 classic, but the updated version is on the Vita which can played with PSTV

so 3 has the least amount of investment and is the start of what modern Persona games are like

Good ideas generator

If you play the PSP version of P3, play the female route. It's better in basically every way apart from them adding in the ability to date Ken for some incomprehensible reason.

i never finished P3:FES D:
i got into it after p4g and couldn't get over losing the quality of life changes in combat... and i ended up rushing through the tower often to the point where now my save is like a couple days away from some big fight but I can barely kill anything anymore cause everyone is so underleveled.

anyway, bring on P5

They would have been useful in translations where adult characters randomly called each other "Big Brother" (I remember it happening in Suikoden 2 with a character you had literally just met) or got angry at being called some strange but not offensive variation of their name (like just about every Atelier game).
you could remove or heavily edit those exchanges, op

Persona 3 Portable has Persona 4 improvements and some things that were added to Persona 4 Golden. People leave that part out while complaining about the lack of an anime cutscene.

Amazon price matched Walmart's PS3 version for $42.49 so the Amazon Prime price should be $34 if ordered now.

Is the PS3 version okay? A friend pre-ordered that one because she doesn't have a PS4.

Does it run like poo poo or have any showstopping bugs or missing content or anything?

The PS3 Version is fine, if you don't have a ps4 there's no reason to not get that one if you can. There's like a few less NPCs and other stuff, but nothing egregious.

there's less faceless people wandering around the city which does make the city feel less alive, and the load times are like 2 seconds longer. those are the only differences.

There are no Persona games available on the PS3 except like, the PS1 version of 2. However, all of them are available on the Vita or PSTV.

If you like RPGs you'll probably like this one.

You can get fes and p4 vanilla on the ps3
