How would you feel if the next Persona took place in America?

It would be similar to the other games, but it would take place in America. The main character might be American too (Although knowing Atlus it might be american mixed with Japanese for the nips.)

Jojo already did it

It'd lose all of its charm and japanese people would hate it.
Europe they'd probably be into, but no one outside of america wants to pretend they live in america. Sorry to let you in on that.

Not in america, but if I have to bet, Persona 6 are going to have a displaced foreigner as either party member or a social link. I mean, if Persona continous to tackle social issues, I can see them trying to talk about gaijin in japan at the recent years. We get Bebe, yes, but maybe with the current situation, we can get an updated one.

Persona will never be set outside of Japan and it should stay that way. That's like asking it to be set out of highschool.

>>378880460
American history is too close to home, you're not even a Persona fan if you want the setting to be outside Japan. I'd daresay you're normalfag scum.

Make it set in California and then they will actually have sex scenes because high schoolers here the biggest sluts
>>
>>378874936
Never gonna happen. Atlus said a while back that they have realized that the reason as to why Persona is so popular even in the west is because it's extremely japanese to it's core.
>>
>>378880541
No it's not, because high school exists throughout the world. There's no reason aside from weeb cred that it has to be set in a Japanese high school.

Almost everyone outside of America wants to live in America. Best salaries, best social benefits, most freedom of expression, best scientific community, best universities, no wars, freedom to defend yourself with guns. America is the best country on the planet.

>>378878251

Their island is also ludicrously overpopulated, so it's probably good that the birthrate is dropping off

I just want a game set as a college freshman so you can have maximum freedom and even skip class if you want.

That's more like uncovering the malevolent entity threatening the end of world theme but that's admittedly tenuous. The link there is best put in terms of how popular both Part 3's were and how much they shaped the rest of the series, 4 and 5 are much closer
>>
It's can't take place in America because the devs are Japanese and it doesn't matter how much they study the country they won't fully understand the intricacy necessary to create a world as believable as the prior games. It's just gonna be tropes and cliches of how they think America is.

They aren't inspired by they practically are. But those games aren't western at all, and the franchises roots will always lie in Digital Devil Story.

It'd be interesting, that's for sure. Not too many major Japanese games portray America at all, really, so seeing a foreign take on American society could be cool as fuck.
It probably wouldn't work too well with a big city, though. It'd be more interesting to see it at least start off in a smaller town kinda like how Earthbound did it.

I think the SMT/Persona teams would lose their philosophical undercurrent if they were trying to emulate a society they don't know.

It would make the games' stories more shallow.

I'm actually working a small game that I've summed up since it's inception as "Persona, except in America" although there are a number of pretty big differences by now. That plot point with Kamoshida was almost 1 for 1 for one I came up with ages ago though.

Persona's thing is about living in Japan
I don't see what the point of Persona would be if the setting wasn't Japan
Japanese culture and the like is one of the appealing things about Persona as westerners and other foreigners learn new things about Japan and what goes on it
I feel like a game taking place in America would be a bit boring, because I've lived here so I already know what's it's like, there's a certain mystery to Japanese culture that isn't well known by foreigners which makes the every day life simulator fun

That's the point. It'd be to the Elevens what Persona except for the butchered version of 1 was for us.

I'd actually really like an American version if it was a spin off game.

>keep tarot-based confidants
>team personas based on western zodiac. Their health issues are based on the organ of their zodiac sign. For example, Leo would have a heart condition.
>MC starting persona is Leo as Leo is known to be a leader. Another option is Ophiuchus (13th sign) but I think that one works better for the main antagonist.
>MC and team are all patients at some Malibu rehab hospital with families who don't want to watch them wither away and die.
>True Ending cures you and all the patients with terminal diseases after. The hospital itself was cursed. There are also "everybody dies" and "cure only you/team" endings earlier on.
>Game only lasts a year because MC either dies or is cured. Time limits are all against hospital curse which will kill you and/or an ally.
>MC can be male or female. Female MC can still get waifus.
>Other World is Purgatory due to everyone being on the edge of death. Player goes to a memorial for dead patients to enter Purgatory.
>A few confidants have time restraints because they die.
>Ultimate enemy is Grim Reaper. Or Hades. Does name matter? It's Death.
>Confidants are teammates, fellow patients, a nurse, hospital owner, doctor, psychiatrist, rich old guy with dementia who is a patient, parent visiting their sick comatose child
>Dungeons are versions of Heaven mixed with Hell of the person you are trying to save.
>The Akechi of this game is a young doctor who is consumed by grief after his older brother died at the hospital. He works there now and discovered Purgatory while visiting the memorial. Death consumed him, and now he is using the hospital's curse to make others feel grief as he did... and of course get rich by saving patients with families who paid extra for a special "clinical trial."

Not sure if I want to see Atus doing an American persona, but I would be interested in seeing Americans developers trying to do a Persona-like game

All of that depends on the flyover state or even region within the state. Good luck doing something other than meth and dairy queen dates if you're in eastern South Dakota for example.

The velvet room attendants were my favourite part of Arena. Mainly because of Liz toying with shadow Labyrs.
