gameplay wise, probably not. It has less elements to interact with, the dungeons are literal hallways, and there's a lot of updates to the overall elements mechanics wise. Everything else, Im biased because P4 is my favorite, but it's story/characters/music/atheistic will not disappoint at the least

No.
I finished P5 Tuesday and decided to load a Golden NG+ save yesterday.
I saved Yukiko and stopped there.
The main trio is so bad.
And Teddie.
Fuck Teddie.
Also I didn't like the P4 story that much to begin with
>>376148215
It feels like going on a trip in a time machine.
It's ultra comfy but god damn the combat system feels soooo dated.
It's really hard to go back.
>>
>>376146795
No because I finished the game a week ago

3 is better
>>
>>376148215
I think if I'm in the mood I can still go back and play Golden.

It would be cool if they remade P3 and P4 with the updated graphics/gameplay of P5. Obviously that will never happen but it's cool to think about

>>376146795

Hell no. I'm unbelievably sick of that cast after having them shoved down my throat for years on end

Kanji, Rise, and Naoto sure.

The others are either obnoxious or painfully boring so they can fuck off.

No I forgot about them as soon as I started P5.
They had a good fucking time, so let it go.

Eh i never thought that Teddie was that bad. he's supposed to be a weird and annoying character and he succeeds at that

with Yosuke they were trying to make Junpei 2.0 but had no idea why people liked Junpei. Yosuke's only personality traits are that he's a selfish, petty loser
>>
>>376150406
I don't think Junpei was popular at all in Japan. He's fairly popular in the west because he didn't suck your dick but also wasn't a complete jackass, he felt real. Japan loves Yosuke because he's there to constantly fellate you and remind the player how cool they are.

why is everyone acting like P5 made the rest of the series shit, I'm way more interested in playing fucking SMT1 and 2 after P5.

>>376151076
>P5 made the rest of the series shit
The fact that the dungeons are handcrafted makes 5 better than 3 and 4 on that merit alone.
>>
>>376151249
The dungeons are better, but I still never minded Tartarus in P3. The music was fucking great and that alone made me not mind it. I fucking hate 4's dungeons outside of Nanako's (again, because of the music)

P5 cast was better than P4 with the sole exception of Kanji. Prove me wrong.
>>
>>376151752
Eh, the dungeons are a little bit better. In the end the puzzles and the designs don't really add much in the end. I'd rather go through Mementos. Much better for fighting and farming.

Yeah i fucking find it inane how there are people comparing the soundtracks here when its literally made by the same fucking guy.

Calling it bad would be wrong but as a final boss song it's pretty underwhelming then gain aside from P3 can't think of a single outstanding final boss theme from Meguro.

Fog is really good as are New World Fool and The Almighty, also not the final boss theme and Genesis is a joke to be honest.

No way. Her, Ryuji and Haru are god tier late game, the only way Morgana is a better support is Salvation but you don't really need that since Haru has Amrita Shower.

>>376156403
what kind of logic is this? why would i waste two party spaces to do what one party member can do? Morgana has Salvation, so splitting up healing duties between Makoto and Haru is retarded when I can use that extra space for another good damage dealer.

Ryuji is one dimensional as a character

Ann is one dimensional

Morgana is one dimensional, even his little tantrum with Haru fails to add character.

Yusuke is best boy.

Makoto's character is so flat you could replace her with a cardboard cutout.

Futaba's characterization is completely schizophrenic, going between having panic attacks over strangers talking to her to completely fearless in speaking her mind and back again.

Haru joins too late to have any memorable moments other than seemly not giving a shit that her dad died.

They need to drop this silent protag bullshit in Persona. Why can't it be like Catherine where you have dialogue options but Vincent still speaks.

>>376156801
Honestly I kinda agree with this. None of the antagonists are as hate-able as Kamoshida. They either do most of their evil off-screen (Madarame, Kaneshiro, Okumura) or are too cartoonishly evil because they're involved in the supernatural elements (Goro and Shido). Kamoshida was an absolute fucking scumbag, had no problem directly fucking with you, AND his real self had no involvement whatsoever with the Metaverse. He was just a grade-A completely human-level asshole free of any supernatural tampering.

Plus, his confession scene is far and away the best with how personal it is and how it occurs in full right in front of you. Madarame just gets a brief news clip, Kaneshiro does his fucking off-screen, and Okumura and Shido both get cut off in the middle of it, with Shido's being the ultimate cockblock.

Yeah, totally, except that for the fact that, y'know, they're all pretty much each other's only friends. Aside from Akira each of the PTs has like, one friend outside the group max.

Now the P3 cast, THOSE guys didn't feel like friends.

>y'know, they're all pretty much each other's only friends

They don't give off the impression that they're friends with anyone besides Joker, which is one of the complaints about Persona 4 but P4's cast had some scenes to alleviate this. Persona 3's cast doesn't feel like a cohesive group either, but you get the impression that at the very least Mitsuru, Yukari and Fuuka are friends. Especially the first two characters.

>Ryuji and Ann are friends
>Makoto and Futaba maybe. This might be more Makoto having maternal instinct with Futaba often giving the impression she needs protection, though.
>Yusuke doesn't give off the impression he's friends with anyone
>Haru doesn't give off the impression she's friends with anyone.


That's one confirmed friendship, same as Persona 3.
>>
>>376162070
Sure, P4 cast feels like friends when outside the story they only interact with MC. And even during story some of them never talk to each other.
>>
>>376163094
>Yusuke doesn't give off the impression he's friends with anyone
Pretty sure in Mementos he states that he has no friends, so Ryuji offers to get a beef bowl with him.
>>
>>376163130
Persona 5 has literally that exact same problem, except P5 has barely any group activities, the ones that do often being interrupted by plot.
>>
>>376146795
Only Naoto badly. She would of made for a great cameo, but I'll take the Rise poster, I like her a lot too.

But I definitely like the main cast of 5 a lot more. They're more relatable to me. Plus Kawakami, goddamn
>>
>>376163246
I know, so you have a point in the game where Ryuji is offering to hang out with Yusuke outside of "work" because he feels bad for him yet the guy I responded to said that they're all each other's only friends.

Persona 4's cast works as friends because they're all together solving a mystery, Persona 3 and 5 feel a bit less personal because those games more seem like the characters are showing up to work.
>>
>>376146795
I honestly didn't think it was possible to get worse than Teddie but the cat prived me wrong.
>>
>>376154598
I thought Ryuji and Ann suffered from being able to complete their SLs so early. They were the first two I completed and they were an afterthought by the end of the game.
>>
I miss Teddie, he was a godly support in P4. Basically Makoto but better.
>>
>>376163267
The Mementos dialog helps with this imo. I mean consider that there are 8 Phantom Thieves, so even discounting Akira that's 21 different relationships you're talking about. It would be difficult to work that much stuff into the story.
>>
>>376146795
No, I'm not a weeb

>>376163520
>I miss Teddie
Shut the fuck up, Teddie.
>>
>>376163531
Persona 3 and 4 also have banter, though. I feel as if Persona 5 still feels more like 3 in regards to the cast feeling as if they're all friends with eachother.
>>
>>376163465
He's also a totally different character in his confidant link than the main story presents him as, it's sort of jarring. Haru and Yusuke were the only two party member's whose confidants I thought were any good.
>>
I miss our guy Junpei famalams
>>
>>376146795
Eh not really, only character I miss from P4 is Chie, and Makoto is like an inbetween her and Mitsuru.
>>
>>376162280
>Ryuji Better than Yosuke
No most of Ryuji's character is (SAD BACKSTORY #3) and going him into public and screaming "HEY GUYS I'M SO HAPPY TO BE A PHANTOM THIEF ITS SO GREAT STEALING PEOPLE'S HEARTS LOLOLOLOL".
Yosuke was kinda bland but he wasn't straight up annoying for the most of the game.
Though I will say I loved the maid scene it even made Mashima bearable.
>>
>>376163618
But the P3 crew are basically the opposite of the P5 crew. In P5 almost no one has any friends outside of the group. In P3 EVERYBODY has friends outside the group and the SEES members are sort of "secondary" friends.

And in some confidants you also hang out with other Phantom Thieves.
And when inviting them out you can meet other confidants and see how they interact with each other.
In P4 after the first arc Chie and Yukiko never talk with each other directly.

Why don't people bring this up, this is was actually really neat and it's not limited to the Phantom Thieves either. One time I was with Haru and then Ohya showed up and said something like "President Okumura's daughter dating Harry Potter" or something to that extent and I went to the theme park with Mishima and met up with GET SMOKED and got to shit on Mishima.
Anyone who says the confidant links in 5 aren't the best are retarded.

What? She comes to THEM and asks to get in one whatever they're going to do to Kamoshida, and even after finding the weird shit in the Metaverse they have to force her out and she comes straight back. When did she ever balk at joining? The most I remember her questioning it is after Akechi's TV show where she spends like 2 seconds wondering if brainwashing is ethical.

Nocturne and SJ respectively.

The second one is from Nocturne, I have no idea what the first one is as there is absolutely no way to ascertain that from the image whatsoever
>>
>>376162112
I always felt like that was the point in P5 that the PT get too caught up in their attempts to becoming famous that the villains feel less personal then they did with Kamoshida, like with Kamoshida it was just cause Ann and Ryuji had something against them but after that you guys were attempting to hunt down big shots focusing on being famous when in reality the PT were no different to Kamoshida because they are stealing hearts for their own gain. That being said taking down Kamoshida was the most fun due to the personal weight it had on you and the rest of the party

>>376164882
Nobody contributes to the story outside of their initial introduction except Makoto and Futaba. Everybody else is just kind of there. One of the big problems with the game's story is that there aren't enough scenes with the team just hanging out.
>>
>>376165209
I didn't notice the second one. It was just a question anon, no need to get all defensive.
>>
>>376165025
Yeah, chasing fame always took priority with a new party member thrown in to justify the target and try to 'make it personal' again. Like, it kind of works with Madarame, but the investment is never totally there again.

That's because he's a reserved/going-with-the-flow character, which puts him in a different light compared to other emperor characters like Akihiko and Kanji. He still has his moments in the group, particularly when things are a bit of a slog to get through.

You need to deal enough damage while he's rebuilding. Matarukaja and Rakunda help a lot, while you keep everyone healed with Mediarama.

Y'know at one point I might've agreed with his assessment, even knowing it was wrong.

But through the course of the spin-offs, as I grew to dislike Chie's increasingly meme-based character more, I found myself coming to better appreciate Rise equally as much.

I've always been a Rise/Mitsuru-fag so I always appreciated her. My opinions on the characters from 4 thankfully didn't change much over the course of the spinoffs, probably because I only played vanilla P4 and Arena.
>>
>>376181486
They're both idiots, but I feel like Rise has a better understanding of the innate facets of herself, hence why she's so gifted at changing the shape and abilities of her Persona.

So what the fuck are these retards doing during the whole Phantom Thieves incident?

You'd think the mental shutdowns and a group that's "changing hearts" would catch the Kirijo group's attention. And aren't Naoto, Yu and Rise supposed to be in Tokyo? Isn't Goro stepping on Naoto's turf with the whole detective prince shit? You can't tell me they didn't hear about it, and you can't tell me they heard about it and decided to do nothing.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see what contrivance they come up with to keep them out of P5's plot when P5 Arena rolls around.

Well, to be fair, they don't actually know how to get into the Metaverse. And let's be honest, it's not THAT obvious. It's not as if Shadows and demons are running around on the street and shit.

If there's something that doesn't hold up for some reason for me now for some reason, it's the confirmation noise when you make a selection.

Would you guys want the stealth gameplay back in the next game or something different?
I wouldn't mind it but it probably wouldn't fit thematically if the team doesn't do any thievery.
>>
>>376183058
I mean, the gimmick of trying to sneak up on Shadows for preemptive attacks has always been a party of P3 and P4, 5 just took it to the next level.

But you're right that it doesn't seem like it'd be thematically appropriate for others as much.

Honest question. Are the P5 cast legitimately worse than P4's, or is it just faggots not understanding the point?

>the ditzy airhead girl that plays off the male bestfriend character (Ann, Chie)

>>376183465
Dunno, I find them kind of equal. P5s cast is just kind of meh. I don't dislike any of them as much as the characters I hated from 4, but I don't like any of them as much as the characters I enjoyed either.
>>
>>376183465
Not really, I liked the cast in Persona 5 a lot more than Persona 4's. Although, Yosuke was better than Ryuji and Chie was better than Ann imo. They went too far with the cavalier comic relief thing with Ryuji imo, he felt really 1 dimensional. I don't even think Ann had any outstanding characteristics at all, other than she's a bit ditzy and she's nice to people I guess? Idk, maybe I did just misunderstand the point with her but I didn't get what they were trying to do with her at all.

However, Morgana is 10x more bearable than Teddie, who is probably one of the worst characters in any RPG I've ever played. I really liked Yusuke too, although there's not much too him other than he's a weirdo, he's still enjoyable.

Not at all to be honest.
I'm not sure why but I love the P5 cast so much more than the previous ones.
Might be because they are more focused on their objective and are good at what they do.
I can easily see them beating up the previous casts in a battle, and not just because of the new gameplay mechanics.
Feels like I wont even hate it if they start milking the game like they did with P4.

Patiently awaiting the spin offs. They clearly don't design the main game around an ongoing narrative, and just leave the mess of bad storytelling and characterization to whatever comes next.

Imagine what excuse they'll come up with to always put the P5 cast in their Metaverse costumes.

As individuals, I definitely like the P5 cast better. There's several team members in both P3 and P4 that I did not care about at all, even before the spinoffs, but I'm at least somewhat attached to everyone in the Phantom Thieves.

P3: Best development and story relevance
P4: Best group dynamics
P5: Most likable as individuals

Why wouldn't he be back though? They were able to recreate the world so of course the companion who made it all possible would be in it. Plus at the end when you realize that he stole the components from the spies car I genuinely laughed.

>>376189528

it was my first persona game so idk if this is standard but that ending felt like it was waaaay too dragged out. like not the story shit after you save the world, but everything from mementos depths to the final boss

>mementos depths semi dungeon
>final boss fake out
>~45 minutes of velvet room stuff, a good portion of which is pointless dialogue with teammates
>another fucking semi dungeon
>with three minibosses
>then finally a two phase actual final boss

I was already at 90 hours when i started this sequence and was more than ready for it to be over when i got the bottom of mementos depths. everything after that was just kind of annoying
>>
>>376190252
That part was great, but the ending cutscene as a whole just felt like it had no impact on me. Honestly I kind of preferred the ending I came up with when I got the game spoiled for me, where you die in the end. Feels like it would fit the game more than another happy retread of P4s ending
>>
>>376190346

obviously i meant best in persona 5, not the best in vidya history
>>
>>376190397
Nah, coming hot off of 4, everything in 5 is extremely dragged out for longer than it ought to. They didn't know how to keep the message to the point so they just went out of their way to add nonstop exposition and big bad speeches and messages of hope and friendship. P4 was similar in this but it didn't keep dragging out, and P3 was genuinely fucking soul crushing near the end with how much shit that team has to go through. If you thought the team of 5 went through some shit, you will definitely need to play 3.
>>
>>376190397
>with three minibosses
This was a throwback to SMTII and one of the best parts of the game. Running through a distorted Tokyo with Life Will Change playing defeating the Archangels, how do you not like that?

>>376190447
I actually do agree, the end as a whole of 5 felt like a retread of 4 in a lot of ways especially with the whole Tokyo and Mementos fusing like the TV World and Inaba fusing. I think 4 did it a lot better though and the credit song was better in 4.

Most hate the combat layout, and first person dungoens, but the story is great and the cast is likeable.Kei Nanjo(pic related) is based.

First person dungeons are fine, unless the map turns when you do. Then it quickly becomes a shit show. I'd say the biggest problem with P1's combat though is that you can just use megido to kill 90% of the enemies, and then just use Piercy's gun to kill the 10% that's immune to magic/nuclear.
