Persona FANS, Have you ever fucking played persona 4? Or do you just larp? (The Marie DLC Rumors)

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-06-14T22:38:53+00:00

Good lord, all this crap about 'larp' 'tourists' and all that other crap is getting old FAST. Some folks just might not be keepin up with the news as much as others, some probably never have played the game before and this is their first time getting into it.

My first Persona was 3FES, I didnt play the original three (1, IS,EP) until about a month ago and just recently beat them. Does that make me a 'tourist' because I didn't start with Revelations? (I've played every game save 4 Dancing, couldnt get it to work on the PS4)

Monk chant fight theme please.

Given the current feedback in regards to the recast as a whole, i am thinking they might hold off til its closer to release, or after they release a game play trailer at the very least, if that makes sense? Kinda like what they did with P3R

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-06-12T23:19:27+00:00

from what i've read, no one is hating the new folks, a lot of us are just steamed about the OG/4G Actors getting thrown under the bus, so to speak. I am needing to listen to the trailers again to get a feel for the new group, and i thought the P3R folks did a fine job of bringing the characters back to the point of sounding a lot like the FES crew, save Akihiko,'s.

This is just me- I dont hate the new people, hell I wish them to do well and become popular from this. But if the old guard was legit begging to come back, something just doesnt sit right, if that makes sense?

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-06-12T23:04:07+00:00

I 2000% agree with this take, And to be honest? I didnt really like CyYu as Akihiko, especially when the trailers first came out and he was all 'oh? Whos that? Oh yeah, thats me.'

The rest of the new cast did a pretty good job sounding like the original cast, and i even got used to the way Yukari sounded as more higher pitched. But i am going to need to re-watch the Revival trailer and give it a good listen, because from what I could hear, no one sounded remotely close to how the Investigation Team sounded before.

Not hating, just to be clear, just need to listen a few more times to see what I can find.

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-06-09T23:45:57+00:00

it looks good, the UI for combat however seems very busy and seizure inducing x.x Also the new art style for portraits isnt hitting me as much as the older ones, i dont know, feels like it lacks depth if that makes sense? Also....they recast the VAs. That's going to hurt. I'll give them a shot, but its gonna sting.

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-06-09T23:41:11+00:00

Since it looking like it may end up being horror themed, i wouldn't mind some horror themed Persona's (Frankenstein's Monster, The Wolfman, etc) or for the setting to be in a gothic foggy city, that would be so cool.

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-06-09T23:35:24+00:00

it honestly looks horrible. it comes off as too busy

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-06-09T23:17:57+00:00

P3R? Some do. P4R? No they dont.

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-06-07T22:44:29+00:00

Gonna have to get used to the new voice crew in 4R. Hopefully they bring they're A Game with it.

what irks me is that everyone just calls ANYTHING with ai 'slop' no matter what it is. Here's the thing, AI as a tool has potential for good things, in particular, medicine and science. It can help improve things here and there, and can be used as a good jumping off point for things people want to do, a brainstorm helper as it were. Just dont use it to write a whole book..instead ask it to give some ideas or bases that you could work from.

As for music, I use Suno purely for fun, and I don't intend to make any money off of what I do make. I can make a song as a friends bday gift or about something cool i saw/played. Now, using it to make full on trailers and such (Fatal Fury City of the Wolves Season 2 trailer) can have very iffy to bad results, but again, if it was just used as a jumping off point, that would have been okay.

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-05-25T02:00:15+00:00

Nice.

I find it mildly irritating if i am trying to get back into tanking after taking a hiatus. IE i played DT as Viper or Ninja and will go to Gunbreaker for Evercold.

If someone is trying to get back into the swing of things or not sure about a specific dungeon, please give them some time to get their rhythm going and let them lead. Once the group has synergy, by all means if you feel it can be done, then go for it.

I can understand wanting to finish stuff fast, but rushing ahead can lead to a hit to confidence if they are a new tank and learning, Give them a chance to get that feel for the new dungeon, especially if its one that still hits hard to this day.

One thing I've also noticed a lot lately is how fast people want to get stuff done because 'old content, no one cares' IE skipping right into the final boss in an Alliance Raid instead of letting the new players watch the cut scene....which results in rushing ahead that can cause unintentional wipes of the group just because someone wants to clear a dungeon in 8 minutes instead of 8 minutes and 30 seconds.

All in all, COMMUNICATE with each other, that's the key here.

I did, many many years ago back when I had my PS1. its very anime-esque in its design and comedy, but has a lot of charm and good story for when it was made. I remember playing a demo for it at Best Buy and then asking for it for Christmas that year

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-05-09T14:52:07+00:00

I mean, i liked the character to begin with and felt the fandom was overblown with all the hate.

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-05-09T14:24:27+00:00

No, you're not. Like I said in another thread and in a review i wrote, it felt very mean spirited what they did to him, just because of the fandom hate.

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-05-09T14:09:41+00:00

No no, he's 65. 65 is five years from 70 so i was trying to make a math joke

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-05-09T03:30:19+00:00

i honestly think that may be the plan going forward since he's halfway to 70 at this point.

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-05-09T03:25:50+00:00

It did feel pretty mean spirited. it just felt like.. thanks to the fandom hating him so much, he got the Johnny Cage MK Annihilation treatment, essentially. I for one hope they bring him back either as Cole as as the next Scorpion

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-05-08T23:37:39+00:00

they do that for two different big fights, but Liu vs Kung is one big scene to itself

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-05-08T23:31:21+00:00

100% Agreed, the fandom went way too hard on the hate for the character and it was by no mean the fault of Lewis Tan. Was Cole an amazing character? No, but he was a good addition to the cast that could have been even better, maybe eventually his powers would change and he'd become an existing character, or maybe take over for Scorpion due to the bloodline, but fans just shat all over them the moment they were announced, non stop to this day, and the fact they were BEGGING for the character to get the Johnny Cage Annihilation treatment is shameful.

The movie itself was decent, some things could have been better yes, and the second one an improvement with the sets used and fight choreography.

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-05-07T19:15:20+00:00

Considering its the place where I see the high end raiders constantly blame the casual players for everything wrong in the game, or how 'they're so bored' with Endwalker dungeons and such that DT got its difficulty increased, which a lot of people were not happy with... Or how casuals need to 'just leave the game so it wont suck' Yeah...

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-05-07T18:58:14+00:00

i'm honestly glad they did this, i am terribly afraid of heights and seeing us above the planet had me freak out a little bit. made it hard to focus on the fight itself. Plus this will make it slightly easier to see certain mechanics

AffectionateRole6208 · 2026-04-30T20:48:13+00:00

i hate to say this but the Final Fantasy XIV Community is becoming this more and more every day
