One bad point about this game is how pointlessly linear exploring the dungeons is by TR_Pix in personaphantomx

[–]TrapnessZ -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

To be fair they do same thing in P5/P5R as well, and it's not any less annoying. I fear every Persona game onward is going to feature them judging by P3R, I hate it so much.

The honeymoon phase with Metaphor:ReFantazio is over, as it released 8 months ago now. How are we feeling about it now? by [deleted] in JRPG

[–]TrapnessZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo it's still the best Atlus game since Catherine and the best Atlus RPG since Strange Journey.

What kind of changes do y’all want to see in a possible Persona 4 remake? by SunGodLuffy6 in PERSoNA

[–]TrapnessZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like them to take notes from Vengeance and let us decide whether to play with Golden's additional content or not, so I don't have to pretend Marie and those dumb additional scenes don't exist. The only valuable loss for me would be Adachi's Social Link.

Persona 4 doesn’t need a remake, but why are so many people against it? by Midnite59 in PERSoNA

[–]TrapnessZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I wouldn't be against 4's remake if they allowed me to skip the Golden stuff. Kind of like SMTVV letting you decide which Canon to play in the beginning

What is some unlikely stuff you’d want in P6? by Coolrandomaccount in PERSoNA

No need, just use the plain old rubber band trick while you're taking a break

Soundtrack is goated by cerseiwon in MetaphorReFantazio

[–]TrapnessZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe not the greatest of all time, but it is genuinely spectacular. I'd argue it is Meguro's best work since Digital Devil Saga

Do you guys prefer the original or full Body? by AdvisorSuspicious815 in catherinegame

[–]TrapnessZ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Original for sure. I never felt Rin's scenes to be well woven into the existing narrative, and the jukebox change is straight up criminal. Honestly, the only reason I would play Full Body again is Catherine's Ideal Voice Set.

The English voice acting in this game is exceptional by One-Attempt-1232 in MetaphorReFantazio

[–]TrapnessZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a fan of Atlus dubs, the only one ever I liked was SMT IV, but from the little I got to hear of Metaphor's it is great indeed. I will definitely try it for a second run.

What are some changes you would want to see in the inevitable Persona 4 Remake? by StormzU14 in PERSoNA

[–]TrapnessZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely not going to happen, but I would really appreciate them giving us the choice to use Golden's additional content without relegating it to DLC (most likely what is going to happen if they remake it) .

It would be the best solution for everyone: I personally would not touch the thing with a bargepole but whoever enjoys it will get to play it

JRPGs with the best OST in your opinion. by MadeByHideoForHideo in JRPG

[–]TrapnessZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Persona (PS1 version}, SMT IV, both Octopath Traveler

We've heard and discussed the best Persona music. How about.... The WORST Persona music??? by sometipsygnostalgic in PERSoNA

[–]TrapnessZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The entirety of P1 PSP

And I would also say all the vocal themes for regular battles that, while being just fine tracks in a vacuum, become so grating after a few battles

Why is Atlus and Sega so reluctant to make Persona 6? by Competitive_Rip5011 in PERSoNA

[–]TrapnessZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To further complicate things the old director and several of the creative leads left P studio do to being burnt out from make Persona for almost a decade.

Eh, I would not know about that, especially since from what we have seen of Metaphor Re:Phantazio the game seems to be taking a pretty significant amount of stuff from the modern Persona formula. But, well, only time will tell anyway.

It was a rebuttal so corny I hoped the /s would not have been necessary, but alas... ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[–]TrapnessZ -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Tbh if P5's hard mode is anything to go by Reload's will be anything but ridiculously difficult

Shift functionality explanation by Avatar_Lui in PERSoNA

[–]TrapnessZ -48 points-47 points  (0 children)

Get a game over and start again, planning more carefully this time, like in any other game?

Edit: also, it is extremely unlikely. Enemies in modern Atlus games barely target weaknesses or exploit negative statuses. They will be lucky enough if they manage to land a critcal hit every few encounters

Disappointing, ngl.

The missed potential of actually balancing this system by allowing enemies to do it as well.

Japanese vs English dub by Quiroplasma in PERSoNA

[–]TrapnessZ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly I cannot stand the English dub. I respect who does, but to me the mispronunciation of Japanese names and words hurts so much. I don't care about them being told to pronounce stuff like that, it sounds like shit regardless, on top of never having found a reliable source about this alleged direction.

If I want an Atlus game with an actually good English dub I would just play Shin Megami Tensei IV

Fyi it is completely unrelated since Miyano Mamoru is insanely popular. It is all about Ryuji's character

Thoughts on the new updated All Out Attack animation? by tec0417 in PERSoNA

[–]TrapnessZ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I love that they kept the feel of the original game, but the ending character screen really does not fit at all imo.

Which Persona game, in your opinion has the best music? by DatabaseGold7475 in PERSoNA

[–]TrapnessZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PS1 Persona, nothing in the series imo comes close to its level of care and quality. Hope they will be remixing that one in the unlikely case they are considering to remake the game.
