Memories of the City is still the best over world track across P3/P4/P5. Especially in conjunction with how drastic the NPC dialogue changes. P3 December/January is still my favorite period across any Persona game purely through atmosphere.

Flair posted:At the very least, I hope Atlus can bring in the anime cutscenes from FES and bring them into the P3P ports. There "should" not be any technical issue or difficulty of transferring some video files from one game to another They would have to change the code to have the cutscene triggers in there. 95% sure they're not touching the game code at all.

Blorknorg posted:Putting aside the anime adaptations of P3-5, there WAS a standalone Persona anime 'based on' Persona 3 and 4 though it came before 4. It was loving TERRIBLE. It did have Ken and Adachi in it though Ken never used his name. Persona Trinity was...interesting. It was absolutely terrible, but it was at least interesting in that it expanded the whole forced-awakening-through-narcotics subplot from P3. And at least it gave Akihiko a more believable follow up than what he got from P4U as a wandering ronin bear puncher guy.

Pwnstar posted:Using Golden Curry and adding like a spoon of instant coffee or a couple pieces of dark chocolate is super simple and pretty close to the proper Leblanc curry. If you are a humble cooking pleb give it a try, the hardest part is chopping the vegetables. P5 taught me that grated apple can be a good addition to curry, and holy poo poo, yes. Grated granny smith is now my go-to for any curry with a red meat. It perfectly compliments the spice and heaviness of the beef.

Honestly, of all the Persona games, I like the Q and Q2 soundtracks the most because not only do they contain all the best tracks from 3/4/5 remixed, they also have a poo poo ton of banger originals which use all the artists together. Road Less Taken and Pull the Trigger slap so loving hard.

That reminds me. I know the Q games basically canonize the FeMC route of P3P as a split timeline that never should have actually existed (or something like that) but I always had a theory that her and Minato were twins and the sibling that died with their family on the bridge when Nyx first landed was the one of them that wasn’t in the route. Did they ever connect that? Or was there just no relation?

I'm pretty sure it was just a function of the school taking in a hard-luck student for PR points plus location with respect to his new home.

AnonymouseNo5 posted:Being fair: It was the same with Minato and Souji. It wasn't until Persona 5 that Atlus finally gave the protagonist (Akira) a "canon" name after dropping it with Persona 2. Yeah. Each of the P3-5 MCs have had multiple canon names based on the format. P3 Manga: Minato Arisato P3 Movies/P3D: Makoto Yuuki P3 Stage Play: Sakuya Shiomi P3 FeMC Dear Girls Comic: Minako P3 FeMC The Weird Masquerade Story: Kotone Shiomi (I think they revealed this is the base option in the P3P update, too.) P4 Manga: Souji Seta P4 Anime + P4 Arena + BBCT + most other poo poo: Yuu Narukami P4 Visualive: Hayato Asakawa P5 Manga: Akira Kurusu P5 Anime: Ren Amamiya P5 Stage Play: The names were submitted by the fans and changed for every performance.

Yeah. This is just a reres of the art assets. They never made a 3D model of the FeMC for use outside Tartarus (or for any of the unique FeMC social interactions). So they couldn’t just port her side to the FES engine.

One of the neat parts of the three modern Persona teams is how different their team dynamics are. Like take the SEES dynamic. They’re obviously the least chummy of the Persona teams, and it stands out in how they interact with each other how important the MC is to unit cohesion. I could never imagine the P4 or P5 teams hitting the point where they pull weapons on each other like in the FES post-game.

Commander Keene posted:Honestly, between Magician, Emperor, and Moon, male side P3 has the worst Social Links in modern Persona. Also not fond of how Chariot requires you to encourage a guy to self-destruct or Hanged Man requires encouraging an elementary schooler to run away from home. P3 was a lot more…simple?…in how you handled Slinks. You were supposed to live in their headspace to understand them which basically meant completely agreeing with them up until the very last rank or two.

ajkalan posted:But Adam Kadmon is arguably the coolest looking final boss design in the series, so who can say if he's wrong or not How well that persona fits (P5R 3rd semester spoilers) Maruki's entire situation still blows my mind. Like, the persona series never really took much from Kabbalah. Everything remotely close from Judeo-Christian mythos was usually whatever pop-Christian variant. A being as close to God as possible without being God, yet still formless, more like a force of nature but simultaneously divine. Fitting for the guy who is trying to act as a god without being a god who still manifests a force more powerful than pretty much any small-'g' god ever conceived.

Zulily Zoetrope posted:Also obviously Akechi gets to be the focus. They pitted their most evil playable character against the least evil villain, and gave both of them entirely plausible and believable motivations and made the villain genuinely sympathetic while also having Akechi be right and Maruki be wrong. Nobody wanted P5R to have an Akechi redemption arc and they gave us one anyway and it was absolutely perfect. Who can fault them for flaunting it? Uhhhhh. Except the whole point is it ISN'T a redemption arc for Akechi. Just because he broken clocked his way to opposing the bigger threat, and he becomes a PC doesn't mean its a redemption. He's still a giant sociopath.

Weird Pumpkin posted:Edit: do not read this post I guess unless you've beaten P4: It's nice that it's tied up I guess. But at the time and still kinda to this day it feels like they sorta just pulled a "final villain go kill god." Like it's set up in the very first hour of the game where you shake their hand, but other than that it never really comes up again and so it leaves me feeling pretty meh about the entire thing. Especially after the whole resolution of the murder mystery and stuff. This is because you never went back to the gas station when it was raining, did you?.
