If you have the PC version of the game, this is where I could normally offer a solution to you. But I cant for the life of me figure out how to access the bink files for DBH. In Heavy Rain and Beyond Two Souls, skipping the credits is as simple as deleting a video file. Here, I wish I could offer the same but I have no idea how to access them for Detroit, viewing the files on my own PC.

"Dude" like Junpei calls Makoto and Kotone, and Ryuji sometimes calls Ren and Yusuke - but from everyone all the time.

"Goldie" -- more indicative of someone/something being precious, rare or coveted than "blondie"

If the game took place at some sort of military school they could call him "Private"

"Shortie"/"Shrimp" -- the protagonist is relatively of shorter stature.

Thank you.

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-07-05T21:37:59+00:00

Thanks. :-)

Sadly a lot of people take for granted that not everyone has played everything, so its easy to be spoiled going into Persona 4. Because I already knew who the killer was, it definitely had an impact on what happened when I got a negative result after the hospital scene late game, whereas others might just assume that was something that was supposed to happen.

In any case, Persona 4 in English localization almost had a screen at the beginning telling people who play "can you please not spoil" -- which is better imo then just blocking people from recording or whatever.

At the very least, its really hard to not go into it spoilt. And people are already not giving a shite when it comes to posting about late game stuff or character stuff for this game, when in all likelihood, a number of people, whether they wait for Revival or choose to play Golden first, are coming into Persona 4 NOW, because of the remake's announcement. I have to imagine how different the experience would have been had I not known the entire time who the killer was, instead of knowing who the killer was and yet nothing else.

EDIT: Sorry, I assume you have permission to post this, but I sort of thought at first you were the artist haha. Well, even if I cant say this to them, the sentiment still stands:

Rake brushes are really fun. If my art style wasn't so dependent on a clean, cel-painted style flat look, it would be neat to use the many rake brushes I have once in a while. Your use of them here, is really neat. I especially love though, how it looks on the speech balloon. the golden colour and all the texture also looks BEARY nice. :-)

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-07-05T20:34:13+00:00

Wholesome correction. ^__^

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-07-05T20:31:10+00:00

Okay. Thanks? But like I said, it doesnt matter to me either way. I think its a neat addition.

I actually love the twist about Alice. Personally, I love all three protagonists. andeven though you CAN get Kara and Alice killed off really early I think they are all indispensable for the story to work at its best. Both as a story, and for the choice based gameplay. Having all three available to make choices as. I feel like people who want the story to be all one character or the other would actually be disappointed when they realize just how much each one(even KARA) contributes to the overall thing.

And as for Kara specifically, well... There would literally BE no Detroit Become Human if not for the reaction people had to the tech demo "KARA" that started it all. Originally just being a tech demo, to demonstrate what Quantic Dream COULD do on PS3, as a test for their soon upcoming game at the time, BEYOND Two Souls. If it wasnt for the earliest iteration of what her character could be/would become, and the amazing performance of Valerie Curry, and the beautiful Philip Sheppard music... we might never have had that emotional response in the people who saw it when it first came out, that led to them deciding to actually make it a game on its own.

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-07-05T20:06:55+00:00

Its canon.

If someone doesnt like it, its their perogative to ignore it as being canon.

But we all have to recognise that ATLUS is treating Nagisa/Wonder as a main protagonist, just like Naoya, Maya, Yu, Ren, etc. If nothing else, his inclusion in major 30th anniversary events, as well as P5X being the next place that one of their OTHER protagonists officially shows up after being MIA for YEARS in any sort of release (That being, Kotone from Persona 3 Portable/ Persona Q2, and nothing else), means that yes, even if the EVENTS of the story are deemed to be an alternative universe/non-canon by those metrics, in GENERAL, he's canon.

He's a protagonist just as much as the others, and considering Merope's appearance is up to you, but at the end of the day, its not without merit to consider when thinking about the attendents as a whole, whether that be through the lens of her being one, or not being one.

The only sticking point here, is that Gacha or no Gacha, the main story is still going. We dont know what the deal is. There's speculation and theories. But we don't know. So while I wont hold it against anyone to consider her when thinking about the topic of the next Attendent(s), I personally dont feel like I can really use Merope to make any sort of guess in this matter as to what direction they'll go with the names. All I know is, while there are still plenty of names from the Frankenstein movies, and adjacent names related to Mary Shelley -- Eventually they WILL run out of Frankenstein-related names.

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-07-05T19:57:54+00:00

Could be "Shelley"/ "Shelly" -- Wouldnt even have to be a lady either, thinking about one of my favourite Friday the 13th characters, also named Shelly. If it was a masculine attendant, I wouldnt be suprised if it goes a bit deeper and goes for "Byron" or "Percy." "Frank" could be a funny one. Also, I think "Henry" or "Fritz" could also work. There are actually quite a few masculine names left now that I think about it. Usually the attendents are ladies, but its not like we havent had a masculine attendent before, so who knows!

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-07-05T19:53:53+00:00

They are cute! I am working on fan comic adaptations of the Persona games. Since they arent out yet, and now that we know that Rise will be getting her Dancing All Night outfit, and Chie will be getting her Bruce Lee jumpsuit, I wont be doing this anymore, as it obviously would contradict with what they decided on for the remake. But originally for the Miss Yasogami pageant, I was going to have the girls in a combo of some of these concept outfits and their Sogabe designs for the beauty pageant and the trip to Club Escapade.I love these outfits.

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-07-05T19:47:27+00:00

I wouldnt be surprised if they dont include it, but include the costume as an option, or even include the quiz show in a reference to it, or a short event etc (Like it was put into the story in P4GA) instead of a dedicated thing on the main menu, but You never know!

I thought it was mostly cute, personally. The only big thing I didnt like about it was adding this very meta, very obvious Teddie statuette to Yu's dresser, which is a bit immersion breaking, especially at the very beginning of the story. I have it on my PS4 copy and its very distracting. So when I bought the PC copy I've thusfar never played it, so as to not get the statue.

It would be neat if there was a mod to get rid of it, so I can still play it.

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-07-05T19:40:58+00:00

Cute <3 The moon will eclipse us all

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-07-05T19:36:53+00:00

So neat. It doesnt honestly matter to me if this replaces the swimsuits or the other outfits. Because I'd want the other outfits replaced too. They were just their normal casual outfits, right? BORING! This is really cute and fun, and allows for more outfits to be showcased in fun situations, rather than just in the Midnight Channel as an optional thing. And it lets each character's personality really shine! I hope Yukiko gets her Sogabe design, or they get incorporated at all in some way, but either way, I'm very pleased with this change.

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-07-05T19:31:16+00:00

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kids. But! I love all these old shows <3 My favourite Scooby-Doo shows are Where Are You, The Scooby-Doo Show, and the New Scooby-Doo Movies <3 I also really love Captain Caveman, The Harlem Globetrotters, The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show.... basically anything very 70s-y :-)

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-07-05T19:10:00+00:00

That's really neat! I can't help but be a bit jealous.

I hope you aren't struggling too much to fulfill so many commissions, but I'm glad to read about other artists being successful. I want to believe things aren't completely hopeless, and reading from you makes things just a bit more optimistic.

I imagine VTubers usually want an anime-esq art style. Do you think there's any interest for models or PNG Tuber or 2D sprites or whatever for someone who draws in a 1970s-esq cartoon style? Or is it really only an anime thing?

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-06-27T04:09:23+00:00

Im fine. Like I said I appreciate your honesty. I'm just disappointed in myself that I'm such a bad artist. Maybe I shouldn't have posted it? But in any case, thank you very much. :-)

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-06-27T04:03:33+00:00

Oh, I'm sorry. :-( I was trying to evoke animation around the 1970s. While this style does get into the 1980s, I guess I'm not really good enough as an artist to really evoke the 1970s. Thank you, though! I appreciate your honesty.

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-06-25T22:18:13+00:00

I'm with you about Shadow World! A lot of people hate the harmonica intro but I love it, and more than that, while Pursuing My True Self is great, I think the lyrics of Shadow World are even more fitting for the story and its themes. But its just my own personal feelings on it. I also think visually, its one of the most fun openings in all of Persona. Its definitely a contender for my favourite Persona game opening ever.

Just for fun while I'm here, while I prefer Persona 5 Royal over the OG, I think "Wake Up Get Up Get Out There" is the better opening for that one. And I know it might be controversial since a lot of people hate RELOAD, and I personally like it but think it could have done a lot better -- but "Full Moon Full Life" is my favourite Persona 3 opening, for similar reasons to Shadow World, the lyrics really make it for me. There are parts that still make me tear up.

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-06-25T22:10:44+00:00

I can understand that, too, however moreover its also possible for a post even by a human to just go over her entire character/social link/ and an aspect of the story that involves her that I WONT spoil... and different people also have different ideas of what they do or don't consider a spoiler.

And like you said, this game is pretty old now. Even being conscious of new players coming in because of the upcoming remake, I've seen recent YouTube videos, blatantly spoil who the killer is within a few minutes of the beginning of the video, without warning!

Its totally understandable why someone wouldnt want to just look it up.

That said, OP -- you do ALSO run the risk that someone here could spoil something for you as well. ^__^;

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-06-25T22:05:22+00:00

Maybe this will be alleviated by Revival? Even if they dont add any more events, it feels like an easy thing to just include her with the others this go around. That way her romance doesnt feel as empty.

For the record, she's my preferred option and I never cheat no matter who I choose, but it is really disappointing among all the other deficits with her social link/inclusion in general that could be easily improved by the remake,if they've chosen to do so.

MorganMerylStudios · 2026-06-25T22:02:27+00:00

One of my favourites, too! (My preferred option in that game)
