ApplesandOranges posted:Off-hand, outside of the main P3 cast, I wonder if they'll be able to get back all of the old cast. Like, Takaya and so on. I think the dateable girls also get some lines, right? Chidori and Yuko. junpei's VA was vic mignogna I'm pretty sure and and I don't think he's getting hired much these days after all that stuff came out about him so he's probably out

ImpAtom posted:(I have like zero faith they'll stick to their guns and not include a Happy True Ending this time.) to be honest I have very little faith because in the 2 rereleases they allowed the player to prevent/undo two of the major character deaths in the game, which pretty substantially weakens the story I think

Jon Irenicus posted:when people were (rightfully) critiquing the fraught sexual politics of P5 I was waiting for the gaze to turn toward Yosuke/Naoto/Kanji but it never happened. I feel like that dead horse has been ground to a fine paste long ago. There's not much to say about it at this point, it was handled badly and everyone either acknowledges that or will always refuse to acknowledge it.

Arist posted:I don't actually care about the deaths getting walked back. Chidori's completely whatever to me and I'm totally fine saving Shinjiro, that one's fanfiction-y in a way I'm cool with. it does, as well as undermining the tone of the game also, it's just kinda dumb. resurrection and death cop-outs are both nigh universally bad to include in plots. anyway you're right, the remake should kill fuuka's mom or something

not having your party members be social links was better honestly

Hellioning posted:Party members being s. links is bad because it's difficult/impossible to fully equate main story characterization with all possible options for how far the player is on their s.link so they just seem incredibly disparate. you can always just make them automatic story s links, which 3 sort of did already since there was a SEES link, although that does unfortunately make it so that the related arcana gets lovely bonuses for most of the game

Zulily Zoetrope posted:I don't think there's inherently any issue with having party members be social links. You just gotta write them to be stories that can advance on their own track regardless of the character's headspace in the main plot, which most of them do. Half the side stories are just also kind of boring and unimportant, but there's no reason they have to be. if you make them s links then you either end up with a link story that is completely incongruous with their character in the main story, or you have to mandate that they receive no character development in either so that they match

Arist posted:The problem is if you need to get a Persona from the Velvet Room for a school Social Link you have to leave school, go to the mall, then run all the way back to school. the thing where you get a bonus to ranking up links for having the right persona just shouldn't exist because it has no effect on the game beyond encouraging the busywork of going and fiddling with your personas before doing things. like "hey you wanna hang out?" "sure but give me like half an hour, i have to go put on a different personality"

is it just me or does it feel like it sets up like it's gonna do a shot for every party member but then after mitsuru it just goes "eh, gently caress it, here's the rest in one shot" two separate times

Ytlaya posted:It seems like the gameplay will be so radically different that most old things like that won't apply. dev cycles are getting longer and given their model of milking the poo poo out of every one i don't think they can afford a mainline persona game actually flopping, so given that between 4 and 5 was 8 years and they're clearly treating reload like a big deal they'll probably be putting out 6 in like, 2028 or something

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

they should have made the AI improve with levels of the SEES s link they clearly had this idea at some point because you actually unlock tactics at certain levels but only 2 and fairly early on, they should have had like 1 per level for increasingly fine grain control and then i dunno, maybe full control at 10(which breaks if the main character is disabled). that would have been cool.

Kale posted:A real lowlight of older games getting remastered is finding out what Japanese Production Committee politics and copyright changes are going to gently caress over what iconic songs or not the loving lyrics are the exact opposite now, it's literally "dance, if you wanna, go ahead, you're free to do whatever, i'm chilling on my bed" no wonder the vocals sound so low energy in comparison, they've gone from commanding you to dance so hard that you might actually hurt someone to a guy going "yeah, you can dance i guess" and then taking a nap cock hero flux fucked around with this message at 19:53 on Jan 6, 2024 |

Arist posted:I mean, that relaxed energy honestly probably makes more sense for the dorm lyrics than what they had initially, imo I get it, and I think part of it is just that Persona 3 didn't really have songs that had relaxed vocals. Like, even songs used in situations where you would expect relaxed vocals still didn't have them, every track with vocals had them be intense in some way. This is, theoretically, bad, in that you get ambient tracks like Iwatodai Dorm which only plays while you're hanging out in your dorm and nothing is going on but has vocals where the guy is practically shouting at you, or Moon Reaching Out Stars, which is waaay faster paced than an overworld theme logically should be. It completely worked, though, 100% and I think not really following that is what gives some of the new tracks that feeling of not fitting properly.
