SMT/Persona: General Discussion (P4 Arena, P4 Golden, P5, SMT: IV, Etc.)

[Daiki]

That's 6~8 months for P5R. What's your point?

[TomPen94]

I think what he was trying to say is that even for P5 it was stupid to delay the western release.

I find it hard to disagree tbh. It's become common practice to have a worldwide release for main-line games.

Maybe Atlus just aren't used to being this popular yet.

[Deathhappens]

They were always pretty popular, but they really hit the mainstream with P3, and that was 13 years ago.

Yeah, pretty much.

But with this announcement, the way is at last free for SMT V news at TGS, right?

Right?

[Mattias]

I have the feeling SMT V is going to be the next Kingdom Hearts 3/FFXV/Last Guardian. It's been, what, two years since the announcement, and not a peep since?

[Daiki]

I feel the pain too guys, but hiatus mangaka rendered me immune to release dates.

[Laserman]

[Laserman]

I like this opening better than the first one.

[TomPen94]

It's good but I prefer the first one. It says a lot with very little. I just really like the minimalistic take it had.
The music's better here though.

[weeblord]

That new OP is pure garbage imo. Completely disregards the style and flair of P5. The animation isnt as slick either, pretty mediocre and wonky at times. But most importantly the first one flowed extremely well and felt meticulously crafted in its minimalism, it had a very clear vision, here we have sequences of random uninspired cuts like the zoomed shot of ann shaking her ass, and the rainbow colors dont work with the red&black.

Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers first gameplay, new details

[Mattias]

It looks so good. I just want to murder large groups of people with Haru. My only concern is the roster. Musou's have huge amounts of characters, and the Phantom Thieves have 8 members. 11 if you count Pancake, Royal Girl and Lavenza.

[Solomos]

Unless the streamer was misinformed/misspoke Scramble takes place after the original version of P5. So that’d mean no Kasumi and possibly no Akechi. Unless ya know, DLC which I’m expecting because of the Atlus/Koei Tecmo double wammy.
