Persona 5 TGS Trailer

It's moist.

also more footage from staff interview [damn it looks insane]

Not my type of game.

Does it look better than the hype for it though?

HYPPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ME4? Would be suprised if that game would come out in 2016.

Indeed. We hardly had a real trailer at E3 but hey atleast we know they're working on it.

Doubt that. That's marketing strategy to build hype and get pre orders and then delay the game to early 2017. They did the same with Mass Effect 3. ME4 will come in March 2017. You'll see.

Looks great as expected. The cat could turn into a vehicle I think when she threw him.

meh.

DAY 1!!!!

OMG 2016 has way too many games for PS4 wtf!!!

man xbox owners have it really easy, they got no games so not much spending on games... LOL

Holy shit, I'm going to lose my soul to this game...

I guess I'll just never understand the hype for these.

Where should I start if I wanted to play these games? Is it a continuing story or new every time? I don't have a Vita but I have a PS4 and PS3

New story every time but there are recurring characters/plot elements. You can get Persona 4 and Persona 3 (PS2 versions) on PS3 via PSN. You can start with either game, personally I recommend 4 since it's the most popular of the series and pretty easy for newcomers to get into

Day 1 purchase for sure

New.

I'd start with Persona 3 FES, but keep in mind that the game is really dark. If you want something more light-hearted, go with 4.

someone please explain the hype for this to me. it looks like typical anime trash. im not trying to be insulting, i am genuinely cause people talk about this all the time, so what am i missing

Good taste in games?

I like the darker tone from P4, they toned it down a bit and I appreciate that.

This is definitely on my radar.

you dont have to be like that. im just asking. i like jrpgs like final fantasy and kingdom hearts, but persona has always come off as one of those creepy high school dating simulators to me. im just wondering how i am wrong, i have a ps4, and id like to get this if this is any good.

This looks a bit more like SMT, that's what has my interest. Which traditionally has much darker themes at play as well.

I don't understand what people see in games like this?

outside of that 2016 is looking pretty stacked the divison, quantum break, scalebound, gears 4, Mass effect 4 are already must buys on my list and who knows what else will show up

Definite day one purchase for me. It's a shame they pushed it so far into next year though, especially when they were insisting that it was coming out this year before.

SMT?

tried to get into P4G but I don't think the genre is for me. Looks interesting still.

@darkangel115 & @appletv:

Give Persona 3 FES and/or Persona 4 a try, they're like $10 on PSN on the PS3. Then maybe you'll see why people are excited to play the next entry in the series.

Shin Megami Tensei

oh wow, ive never even heard of this series, and i really like jrpgs. so whats the best one to start with?

which one is better? and shouldn't i play them in order instead of jumping in with 3?

Playing them in order isn't really important sense they're all seperate stories. I think digital devil saga is the only one that has a direct sequel.

I liked SMT Nocturne the most, I think the setting is the coolest.

You have to do it that way to get the word out on your game or it gets overlooked. Maybe ME could do it like FO4 just did this year, but, I think they were working on FO4 for longer.

Well, you don't have to play Persona 3 to enjoy Persona 4. Persona 4 is a slightly better game since you can control all member of your party in combat, whereas in Persona 3 you only control the main protagonist but not the party members, not directly anyways, they act on their own in combat but you can still set strategy regarding their combat behavior. Both are good for their story and writing and likable characters and excellent localization and balance between combat and social aspects of the game. You can't go wrong with either, not for $10 anyways. The only reason I'd see needing to play Persona 3 first over Persona 4 is that it might feel regressive if you do it the other way around since you can't control the party in combat like you can in Persona 4.

I'd also recommend for first time players you play on easy mode. I'm sure this is a debatable issue among Persona and SMT fans. But I'd recommend it because a death of the protagonist is an instant game over, whereas on easy you have 10 revivals to make use of over the entire game, and trust me you're going to want them as enemies have some instant kill attacks that can ruin an entire hour or so of dungeon crawling. And "easy" really isn't too easy it'd bore you, and you don't want your first experience with a Persona game to be a frustrating one remembered for its grinding and difficulty.

Your loss. You could just play them because they're fun and exceptionally well made JRPGs. And I'm saying this as someone who finds most JRPGs to be generic weeaboo shovelware.

I don't like JRPGs at all. Not my thing man. It's literally my least favorite genre right behind indies. Last time I liked a JRPG was FF7 like 15 years ago. I'm not a teen anymore lol

Kinda seems silly to be spending time in this thread then. And indie isn't a genre.

Yes I know indies come in all genre's but they all suck

Whats with the 2004 level gfx? Did they want 60 fps on PS4 finally!?

I speak for Charizard, the game looks like crap

JK day 1 purchase, looks leagues better than P4 and P4 is already amazing.

I am simply posting in this thread - once - to confirm that I did indeed follow through on my bet, and that I am now adorned in Yukiko colors for the next three months, as promised.

Now back to my exile I go.

That post was filled with so much defeat.^

@appletv: if you're interested in the SMT games and subseries, here's an interesting set of videos talking about them, I saw them a while back and they're good at explaining the games, themes, and good intro games for newcomers, definitely check out the section on "gateway games" if you're interested in picking a good intro game, but hopefully fans of SMT games and subseries find these videos interesting as well, I really found the 1st & 4th video very educational.

1. History and Introduction
2. Gateway Games
3. General Gameplay Tips
4. Continuity and Timeline

Here's an embedded four video YouTube playlist for convenience...

I'm leaving this updated trailer here with translation

Holy shit it actually looks fun to play, love 3 and 4 but they get monotonous as hell
