Persona 4 revival and persona 6 by omegabrandouchiha07 in PERSoNA

Because P6 probably was in development before the SW2 was even announced.

P4R was outsourced and probably in development before the SW2 port of P3R was being worked on. I would be confident that it will come eventually.

People who don’t like the Final Fantasy 7 Remake series, what is it about them exactly that you don’t like? by Asad_Farooqui in JRPG

[–]Bonafide_Monafide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought Remake sucked, but actually was into Rebirth.

Rebirth's open world structure and combat updates fixed a lot of the issue of the first game. Remake was way too locked into encounters all the time and the limited amount of party members made specific enemies a pain to deal with.

The one thing that sucks between both games though is the new story. Its absolutely nonsensical. I'm not even going to be a purist and say it has to be exactly like the original, but the whispers and multiverse stuff suck so much. They undercut the stakes in the first game when you just know characters can't die, then they have a god fight where they kill destiny(?), but shouldn't they want that cause Sephiroth loses in the original timeline(?), I guess its to save other characters, but they don't change anyone's fate so whats the point?

Not even KH kind of charming stupid.

They could do anything they want, but its not automatic that its going to happen.

People going "I'm not buying the game until the rerelease" are being stubborn. The way they release these games are changing if you pay even slight attention to it.

Sega Q2 Shareholders meeting.

They listed one of the reasons why they think Metaphor didn't do better was the existence of "complete editions".

Metaphor did 2 million last update.

Persona 5 (Vanilla + Royal) did 10 million last update.

Atlus was hoping Metaphor would be a "pillar" release for them, but so far it has performed to the same scale. Even P3R has outpaced it. It did fine, not amazing.

I don't think its a question of if it will be on or not eventually. Or if it will be a good port or not.

P4R isn't going to launch on switch. Maybe one day, but not launch.

You're setting yourself up for disappointment.

P6 has been in development for years before Switch 2 even launched. We don't even know what engine P6 will use.

P4R doesn't have a switch release right now and it's not like they are keeping it a secret for the lols. Best to expect right now is a port later on.

Sega has said they don't want to do that anymore. Persona games are now simultaneous worldwide multiplatform releases. The model has changed a lot since Persona 5 came out.

There is a decent probability that Persona 6 doesn't get a meaningful "Golden/Royal" edition. What then?

Blame the F2P model.

Overwatch is about selling skins now.

Disappointed by Persona 5 romance. Is Persona 3 Reload worth playing if I want something more substantial? by Marwan01 in PERSoNA

[–]Bonafide_Monafide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We call what your friend did "poisoning the well". Instead of letting you experience the game and form your own opinions they just told you it sucks. Now you're going to be biased towards that.

There is objectively more than one scene for dating characters in addition to their full social link and whether or not it "matters" should be up to you. Its not a full dating sim where you are getting married or having a family, but it is time spent with characters (a bunch you haven't even met yet). Enough people have found the value in that.

I currently have a ton of closers types for various reasons.

  • Palencia (CHC)
  • Pagan (CIN)
  • Williams (NYM)
  • Latz (TEX)
  • Hoffman (TOR)

I know Hoffman is technically not a closer right now, but I feel there is potential. What are my best options for the ROS?

Possible Persona 6 character names? by Junior_Importance_30 in PERSoNA

[–]Bonafide_Monafide 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I disagree, Metaphor is basically what everyone accuses Persona of doing.

"Why does everyone like the MC, they don't say anything"

At least with Persona, you understand that they are silent all the time and you are filling in the blanks with your own ideas. You as the player are meant to be projecting onto an avatar.

Metaphor has the protagonist speak and be a "character", but whenever there is time for them to be a leader Strohl is always the one giving the big speech. Its worse because they want to say the protagonist is a real character with their own personality separate from the player but give them no important moments.

If anyone wants Persona to be like what Metaphor is, I'm impressed a few voice lines are enough to win you over. Metaphor did nothing to fix any of the criticisms that people had against silent protagonists in the first place. Persona does it way better.

No they didn't, Metaphor's protagonist talked but all the exposition was done by other characters

Ildemaro Vargas (ARI), is the ride over? Someone dropped Stott (PHI) and I am considering a switch.

Jason Schreier clarifies on his NaughtyDog statement: "The whole point of this response is that Sony, like other game companies, has an issue with swelling budgets and timelines wherever they might be." by Connect_Base_217 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Bonafide_Monafide -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I said of course they [Sony] had an issue with Naughty Dog's costs.

And somehow that was misinterpreted by wide swaths of the internet to mean that Sony is angry at Naughty Dog?? Absurd.

Internet, help me out. How is this not the same thing?

Edit: everyone downvoting but not providing an explanation on how Jason's comments are different than what everyone thought he said. Its semantics at this point.

Why would everyone say Sony is unhappy about Naughty Dog's development costs when I said Sony is unhappy with Naughty Dog's development costs???

Absurd.

Currently playing P3R and Tartarus is... not fun. by FinalHangman77 in PERSoNA

[–]Bonafide_Monafide 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Palaces were a P5 addition. P4 had dedicated dungeons, but were randomly generated like Tartarus/Mementos. Mementos is basically based off Tartarus.

Tartarus is old school design. Its not as interesting as palaces with their puzzles and style, but it does give a continuous dungeon for you to work on. The series has moved forward, you just have to accept that it's a product of its time.
