Alright, this has to be bait if you think 1 and 2's dogshit dungeons are better than 4's

They're not actually better. You just hear a lot of hate for it on /v/ because its popular right now. P3 and P4 are both fantastic games, but P5 is definitely the best one.
>>
>>378672003
It literally was. Also having to literally fight every shadow head on in 4 because you couldn't sneak behind them during early game was BULLSHIT and automatically makes it the worst game in the series

Then my post would be 100% bait, but the first list is as a whole.

Combat and dungeons would be just chronological progression with P5 first and P1 last. Maybe switch P1 and P2.

Tartarus had a single deadline making it a lot more flexible to work with and a lot of times the stairs to the next floor would be right where you started making it less tedious than Hallway Simulator 4.

The thing with P5's intro, it just highlights where the devs decided to rush in characters, the first 4 get most of the scenes then the rest only get one specific scene in it

Out of nu-Persona, this is how the rankings go.

Best Plot: Persona 3

Not characters or actual execution of the story, plot. The Dark Hour and Evokers are radical, but poor pacing sets it back.

Best Characters: Persona 5

As individuals, P5 has the best cast in the franchise. Except for Yusuke, they're considerably less one note than P4.

Honorable mention to Junpei for being the only character in the franchise with an actual story arc.

Comfiest Cast: Persona 4

Shitty choice of words but you understand what I mean. They feel like friends and have good chemistry. When they do actually interact they're solid as hell. Remove Yu and they'd be even better.

Best Atmosphere: Persona 3

P4 and P5 can be super jarring during tone shifts and the like, but P3 is able to shift between dark and more light hearted fairly easily.

Best Pacing: Persona 4

P3 has that boring as month and P5 has key characters come in incredibly late. P4 wins in a landslide.

Best Combat/Dungeons: Persona 5

Duh. It's the only combat and dungeon crawling to actually stand up to the rest of MegaTen. It's fluid as fuck, and the dungeons have actual mechanics instead of randomly generated nonsense.

Best MC: Persona 5

Joker fits with the themes of the game and he actually has some personality. Counting anime as well and Yu would win it out, provided it's not Golden

Best Waifus: Persona 5

Nah, senpai. I think Dojima, Nanako, and Kanji are the best social links in Persona, but P5's are more consistant. All of them are at least very good except Ohya . I think 3's is a bit below 4 overall. No male party member S-Links hurts a lot, and having to romance everyone is just weird.

Honestly, P2's aren't great but they're varied, interesting, and have gimmicks like Xibalba, the Aerospace museum, etc.

P1's dungeons take a while to kick in, but by the time you get to the Black Market, they start to get really fun. Snow Queen also has some great asshole dungeons.

Why do people have such a boner for P4? Is it because it was their first Persona/SMT game? It has the worst fucking voice acting in the series (Chie, Yukiko are awful), and teddy is the most annoying character I've ever seen. I loved the game, but P3 and P5 are a LOT better.

The only thing I miss from P4 is that comfy feeling of Inaba. Also it probably has the best group events. The ones in P5 were fucking garbage.
>>
>>378673668
That's because they haven't realized that a story segment where the characters tell you the answers doesn't constitute a puzzle

Well, then you don't get female party member links as FeMC. It's still one or the other. Don't get me wrong, P3 has some fantastic S-Links, but I think they definitely improved as the games went on.

The intro to Persona 5 starts off incredible. Everything up to and including the logo is 10/10.

I don't really care for the dancing/figure skating section though. They could have done a lot more.

P4 had a better framing of the intro (TV screens + static) and felt more mysterious than P5. P4 is meant to be intriguing while P5 is meant to be awesome. Both are great overall.

I still don't agree. Nothing in P3 reaches the levels of Dojima, Nanako, or Kanji, and there's a handful of boring ones so it doesn't have the consistency of P5.

>>378674878
All of the games are good. P4 is just super comfy with tons of content.

>>378675050
there certainly was a sense of real hopelessness in some P3 scenarios, almost as close as older SMT games. In P5 if you die to the boss you can just restart the battle immediately, that really surprised me
>>
>>378674992
It's better in literally every way

>>378675050
no party control is better cause thats how the game is balanced, and it makes you play that game completely differently and have to think about each move. There's so much tension each turn its honesty thrilling. 4 and 5 are hit the weakness to win and then baton passes break it even further. Plus Tartarus is great, that feeling of getting to the top is incredible
>>
>>378675026
People can't play games that don't give them audio/visual stimulus 24/7 now. Style over substance and all that.

Sure, I hate it when games have slow animations that aren't avoidable like the PS1 versions of 1 and 2, but it's not like the games are objectively bad, and in fact do a lot of things better than the new ones in writing, themes, and pacing.

Stop.

Persona 3's main dungeon wasn't that horrible and I actually prefer it to Persona 4 any day of the week. Why's that? Because the RNG meant you could get floors that had nothing but treasure chests or rare shadows, I live and breathe dungeon crawlers and that's what Tartarus is. You can change the music on the field as well, you instantly recover HP/SP when you go to the base floor. The only nagging downside is the stamina fatigue hidden system, that I can't defend. The floors could be massive or completely small. You can split up the party to look for everything more efficiently.

You are literally a Persona 4 crybaby queer who needs his hand held for him. Stay on the Safety difficulty and fuck off. And for the record, Persona 3's cast is way more realistic than DUDE I WANNA JERK OFF THE PERSONA 4 PROTAGONIST HE'S SO STRONG. Junpei alone has more characterization than every character in Persona 4, with the exception of maybe the the Hanged Man social link. Just look at how everyone changed from P3/P4 in P4 Arena, P4's cast didn't learn a single thing.

I agree with you somewhat. I think Tartarus was an interesting idea but in practice it was just bad and the pay off of finally getting up to the top of the tower didn't make up for the slog before it in my opinion. the fact that there was only one time that you got to see outside Tartarus didn't help, it had no sense of scale. I had a better sense of climbing a huge tower with the Tower of Kagutsuchi in Nocturne and it didn't need the entire game to give me that feeling. There's a case to be made for whether the TV World or Tartarus was better, but they're both godawful and I don't even think it's worth arguing which is the better pile of shit. I also think that Junpei was the only really noteworthy character, Aigis was okay too but the rest were completely forgettable. Junpei is excellent though.

From what I'm told the way Japanese anime industry works is when a game studio needs work done, they order them in waaaaay in advance way, way before they even get to the halfway mark of game development.

So ATLUS ordered those animated cutscenes and had to use them wherever they could. This happens all the time with Japanese games. That's why there are so few and far in between anime cutscenes in Persona 5. It also leads to some unfortunate timings where you can max out the Empress Arcana and be involved with Haru romantically but still get stuck with that limo ride cutscene during the November escape animed cutscene. ATLUS had a similar oversight with the game over screen in the late game.

You could realistically kill the traitor in the December dungeon, then slack off and never send the calling card, get sent to a game over screen where a dead person kills you in the interrogation room but they shouldn't have been able to since that person was dead. Or during the month that you rescue Futaba and Sojiro is called out as a bad parent, Futaba could for many people who finished it in one sitting be asleep for 24 days and Sojiro walks it off like it's normal.

Basically Persona 5 Crimson has its hands full fixing these.

I think that, for Crimson, they should get more ambitious than they ever have before and make an alternate FeMC story where everything's kicked up to 11 and she's not a silent protagonist.

>but a girl would never be arrested on assault charges for something like that
EXACTLY. She's even more of a psychopath and maybe pulled a fucking knife on Shido to protect the girl.
>but they'd have to rewrite social links
YES. Rewrite them all and make every single link in the game romanceable; no exceptions. On Valentine's Day, even Akechi's fucking ghost shows up to berate you, but because you're such an insane trickster, you convince them all to go harem mode with you.
>but no VA could pull off a good female lead to the PT
Not true. Get some slightly-batshit-insane deep-voiced VA (for Japan, maybe Yuu Kobayashi; for the West, I don't quite know, but they could come up with something) to go nuclear at every opportunity.

In addition, genderswap Akechi, since he's got such a mirrored relationship with Joker.

If there's ever another FeMC again, they need to push everything to the limit and go wild.

I think he's done other good final boss music, but that's the only one he's done that had the weight for final boss music. Usually he does final boss music that sounds good, but also like ti could just be for a mid boss or something, Battle For Everyone's Souls actually sounds like something that would play for the final boss. This is especially noticeable in Strange Journey where the final boss music, while good, has as much weight to it as one of the normal battle themes.
>>
>>378677127
nah it was genuinely funny, maybe because you actually felt closer to the group too? In P3 they all hung out at Iwatodai Dorm, in P4 at Junes, but in P5 they don't really ALL hang out apart from the meeting pre and post palace. You don't feel attached to them.

Man I would have loved to explore Mementos on foot, probably would have been able to listen to all the conversations at the walking speed and not having to cut off teammate conversations. Also I prefer the running through dungeon animations when your friends shift in and out of cover. I also read someone on NeoGAF thought Mementos was completely optional and had to do all 65 something floors in a row on the day of the true ending route. Audible kek.

That scene was great, most of his interactions with Joker at the cafe are good, his interaction with the group, especially Futaba, in text convos is good, he's a stylish motherfucker, and his dumb little dance is great too.

Really? I think the p5 party has a much better overall dynamic. Maybe it's because they're actually proactive in pursuing their goals and share said goals, making them feel close on ideological level. P3 couldn't do anything but sit on their thumbs because PLOT until full moon happened and P4 were ridiculously passive in LOOKING FOR A SERIAL KILLER

Though I will admit having everyone live at the same spot and talking with them in P3 was the best. Shame that LeBlanc isn't a hub like that.

Morgana is far better than Teddie. He can be pretty mopey, but otherwise he's fine. He should have stayed gone when he disappeared though, or Ryuji should have really died. I like both of them, but I think that would have lent more impact to it all.

Archetype is just the baseline. Junpei is a jelous faggot who gets great with time, Yusuke is a good pal (I honestly cheered when he said he's fine with playing second fiddle after expecting more Junpei bullshit) from the get-go who never fucking develops and Ryuji is way more gun-jumping and caring than either of them. Hell, I'd say he has more to do with Chie because they share an Arcana. Only he's the butt of the jokes because he has a penis and Chie didn't

Him telling you to go to bed isn't even part of his character, he's just speaking in place of Joker's thoughts. If he were gone form the game Joker would just say "I should go to bed". It has nothing to do with the character of Morgana.

I wonder how many people automatically went to bed during the end of August when you're helping Futaba act like a normal person not knowing you can actually use the night time like a regular non-event day. That's roughly a week getting prepped for the beach day and time is of the essence in this game. The game just dumps you in the attic and by that time you've been condition to think you wont be let downstairs. So many people who gave into the cat like a slave.

Fits the theme of the game, wouldn't you say?

P5 has worse theme consistency than 4. I finished the final boss of 5 and had to ask myself, "so what was the message again?" because the characters didn't reach any conclusion about the sins they had been fighting against as being good for humans. 4 is about being yourself and accepting who you are but 5 gets too jumbled in the abstractness of social reform and rebellion. It should have been about anger

>>378680809
They were, but some of them were fun in spite of that and they helped vary up the gameplay. Also all the jumping around and such really created the feeling of being a thief, all of them had cool setting and most had great music. I didn't think they were the greatest dungeons of all time, but they were pretty good.
>>
>>378673708
I liked playing through 4 the first time around more than 5. P5 railroads you way too hard with plot dumps lasting as long as 2 hours and the extremely forgiving stealth system castrates what very meager amount of challenge the game could've had and what little left there was after that is completely eradicated by reaper farming. Sure, neutral starts and being on the receiving end of an ambush is a bit riskier now that it was in 3/4, but having every pre-emptive strike being a one-turn curbstomp is not the best approach.

P5 would be way better if it eased by on devouring entire days with exposition and made the stealth system so that crouching behind anything didn't make you invisible (even if you're in plain sight). Also the boss battles are far too easy. Early-game boss fights in 3/4 were kind of bullshit at times, but it felt nice getting through them. P5 is way too straightforward.
>>
>>378678983
Yosuke at least knows his role and even steps up to become the leader during the Nanako incident.

Yeah, Junpei is a literal traitorous scum. Ryuji is likable enough at times but he is way too dumb and has jeopardized his team like a dozen times. Ryuji might be the stupidest character in Persona yet.

>>
>>378678624

>>378679737
Let's break it down:
P4G:
> Quick shots of all the characters with a basic indication of their personalities
> Gives you a limited sample of what the game has coming
> People hanging from high places showing that it's a murder mystery
> Hides the 3rd death spoiler right as the lyrics say "cover up".
> Shows that the game goes through seasons
> Basically previews the entire game in some manner
> Amazing music

P5:
> Intro sets up locale *far* better than P4G
> The intro shows a bunch of jumping
> We only see the occupations of Yusuke and Futaba.
> No real personalities or indications of other characters
> SPINNING
> SPINNING AGAIN FOR EMPHASIS
> No real indication of what the game is about or what will happen
> Cat throwing is shown but isn't in the game
> Music is bland

I'll call it a toss up but ehhhhh

4's theme about Truth and finding yourself might have been one of the stronger thematic threads in a Persona game yet. P3 did alright with the Death theme, though P4 was just a bit more multifaceted. P5 is just a jumbled mess. "ADULTS ARE EVILLLLLLLLLL"

Because sending a calling card shouldn't make you incapacitated of going downstairs to make fucking coffee or read a book. Or in some events that happens in the afternoon you can't do shit at evening because the cat said so

What triggered me the most was when the cat wanted to do the Dome(or whatever it was) to go to the rollercoast and everyone agreed because of him, then he said he didn't want to do it anymore because of "I can puke" so he wanted everyone to go home, Ann wanted to eat as the others did because they were hungry but the cat said "NO" and fun was over. Really, fuck the cat. September's event was also stupid as fuck

"Because you rebel against something doesn't mean you need to go the full hog blindly over it". It's reinforced over and over in every palace and mementos mission by the team not killing the shadows of people they seek to reform.

The characters of P4 don't actually do much to pursue truth, meanwhile the characters in P5 are stuck in super-shitty situations and awaken to their Personas when they decide to rebel against that. It also has the team realizing that rebelling just for the sake of being cool and relevant is bad during the Okumura arc (although I think it was dampered by Okurmura legitimately being a piece of shit and Haru having been screwed if the PT didn't intervene).

What I disliked was how P5 felt like it put all the eggs in that Akechi doublecross and everything else just felt like rote SMT. At least P4 had the whole murder mystery angle going for it and P3 had the characters always trying to fight Death at every turn of the story.

I think P5's endgame was just badly written. Hopefully Crimson can change that if it comes out

It bothered me in 4, but I was fine with it in 5. It was a nice twist and the whole end sequence was cool. In 4 it felt like it came out of nowhere, but the depths of Mementos were something that had to be explained in 5 and I think the way it was explained was perfectly acceptable. The only real issue with it in my book was the God's motivation being "This is what humanity wants deep down" once again.

It didn't though. P5 tied its theme into each Confidant, it's ending and even the way they summon Personas. 4 just had the cast face their true selves. It did a fine job of it's whole firendship deal, but it did not have a strong thematic core compared to 3 and 5.

I wish I liked Ann and Makoto more.

Ann had a sad tale but she just sticks with the same schtick all the way and barely moves forward. Makoto is just too worried about being the studious one and she just orders people around everywhere outside of her confidant link.

Haru is nice, but she comes in at the tail end of the game. Who made THAT decision? I felt like I knew Naoto a lot more even when she came into the game half way in

I meant the way they treated the bosses. At least characters in P2, 3 and 4 all had proper motivation behind their villainy (or heroism). In P5, it's 'because I'm a bad adult'. It's hammy like a Gundam story.

The message was you don't need superpowers to fix an injustice. The protagonist's friends were able to find the original victim that caused the lawsuit and get his record clean through hard work. Even without Mementos or Morgana, they were able to help their friend out in a rigged system.

IS is Bioshock Infinite easy because of the OP Ultimate Persona. I never had to go to the Velvet Room after I got the upgrades, unlike Persona 1 which was constantly going in and out to swap. I'm only 15 hours into Persona 2 EP and there isn't any way to cheese it, is there?

'I oppress weak people coz I was oppressed when I was weak' is a very real motivation that you can see and find in certain oppressed or hireachy societies. I can't remember its label but it is very related to FYGM

Nyx isn't harder than Crawling Chaos Nyarl, as long as you know how to use tactics right. P3 isn't that hard, I played it on hard mode too. Just don't be under leveled.

Him not getting a confession/breakdown scene was the biggest middle finger IMO. It was around the time were my wiling suspension of disbelief went out the window when Makoto gets kidnapped and they make it just in time to jot down the license plate number and get a taxi to follow them. The taxi driver should have told Ryuji to fuck off.

Just get a PSTV and hack it. You can get undubbed P4G for free along with most vita games. It''s 50 dollars from amazon. Also you can use a USB drive as storage.

>>378683772
costumes, more events, better fusion system and shuffle time, you can leave at night to talk with your S.Links
>>
>>378683772
Adds a lot of new events and a couple of extra months. There's a new dunegoen if you do Marie's S. Link too. I think P4G is the only game that feels complete out of P3, P4 and P5. FES, vanilla 4 and 5 all left me feeling a little wanting, even though I think 5 is the best game in the series. I think it's worth buying a Vita TV for.

I am only pointing that they had compelling motivations precisely coz you see it in the real world too (which is also true for Adachi). Whether or not you find it compelling is up to you

>None of the character motivations felt like it had anything to do with Yalby
>Youths frustrated with the oppression of their life eventually rebel against the Dermuige, the ultimate oppressor of all life
>>
>>378683772
A new battle song which helps break up the monotony, two new S Links, a new bonus dungeon which is pretty cool (but requires you to deal with Marie), some extra time to hang out in the winter, evening visits to your friends, and reworked Shuffle Time (I think).

I'm stacking up blank cards, which Arcana was the best of the best back in the day? Like I remember the dude from Persona 1 with nuclear powers was OP as sin because of his Arcana alignment. The last thing I remember doing in Persona 2 EP was fighting that boxing girl's shadow. Holy hell was that brutal. Oh yeah, I remember, I'm at the point where I can choose to go two different routes. That rich kid's route or Elly, both of which are supposedly either long but boring or short but difficult as fuck. Fun.

Well yeah, the protagonists had a good tie to the Yalb. Just not most of the villains. Hell, even Shido felt out of place

I don't even care if a villain is hammy as long as they have proper ties to the themes of the game itself. It just felt like P5 was pooling inspiration without guiding them correctly.
>>
>>378680936
A shadow can take a party member hostage if they're knocked down and have very low health. It's a lot more common in the early dungeons because as you get late enough into the game then hitting a party member's weakness will probably just kill them outright, especially on Hard and certainly on Merciless.
>>
>>378683053
Don't forget the one time a person actually dies (albeit it wasn't their fault), it was at the point where they had lost sight of their rebellion and were doing it for the wrong reasons, and the aftermath is them finding their way again.
>>
>>378683436
People like Kamoshida (and the people who defend people like him to get ahead on his success) are very real, just look at Penn State.
