Persona series

I haven't heard anything but "summer".

Really from Jupiter, but not an alien.

Your momma's so dumb she thinks oral sex means talking dirty.

I think it's fun because it punishes the player for romancing every single girl at once.

... or if you really dislike a particular girl, you can intentionally romance her to crush her.

... like I said, fun!

Okay, thank you.

I accidentally romanced both Chie and Naoto on my first Golden playthrough. I think all that happened was that Chie called me and I said I didn't feel like going out on a date today.

The horror.

Granted, I kinda skipped through that scene pretty quickly.

Tidbits. The "While waiting for P5" part makes me think Golden will get a PS 4 release.

Good to know that they're trying to take a step up from previous games in character development.

I wonder if we'll still get the same pattern of character personalities though.

I hope we don't have to put up with a Hot Springs fiasco again...

Or if we do, I hope this time not only are the girls in the wrong, but it's made abundantly clear that they are, and they don't get a Karma Houdini for it. They get called out on it, and they know it.

But that's asking too much I suppose.

One Strip! One Strip!

The only anime game that has a sensible hotsprings problem scene is Legend Of Heroes Trails In The Sky and even that was still pretty funny in a different way.

Anyway Hotsprings Episode are a requirement for anime games, they must happen, even if there is no walk in problem.

What happened? I'm curious.

One Strip! One Strip!

Apparently the Persona 4 manga got an English release in the US at least?

I'm kind of thinking why bother.

I don't think there are enough females in the party to excuse a beach/hotspring episode in Persona 5. Maybe they'll make two operation babe hunt to make up for it. I sure hope not...

Estelle screams at the top of her lungs which gets the owner rushing in, the owner then yells at her for the false alarm and that she didn't notice that it was a unisex bath. Joshua then takes a dig at her "I mean, it wasn't ME who shrieked like a banshee. Nor did I flake out and completely miss the sign in the dressing room." which starts an old married couple style fight while both are naked. She is very clearly in the wrong and it ends up being a character development moment for her in many ways that would take a lot more time to explain here.

Most Hot Springs Episode give equal focus on the guys too.

Look at tales of Zesty girls guys◊

Well, the girls go in during the women's bathing time. After their time is up, they leave, and the guys come in later when it's the men's assigned time. Not really, I don't know anything about Trails in the Sky.

That we know of. What we're seeing right now is basically the equivalent of P4's Yu, Yosuke, Chie, and Teddie. I'm sure there will be more characters added to the party of the course of the game, and that some of them will be girls.

Really from Jupiter, but not an alien.

Yeah, how much of the party was known before the game with P3 or P4? There's presumably going to be more people added, of course.

Oh. I like that.

Trails In The Sky takes a lot of anime tropes and while it looks like they will be played straight they actually play with them in a unique way, its one of my fav RPG series.

Especially its Tomboy lead, she might be my fav JRPG protag ever.

Replaying Persona Q for funsies, I get to the Inaba Pride Boss.

I had TOTALLY FORGOTTEN how amazing this theme is.

Song of the Sirens

I'm really fond of how that track stylistically resembles I'll Face Myself without featuring the same chords or melody or so on.

While there's certainly not a lack of problems with Persona Q's writing, I have to say, the post-boss cutscene there has some of the most powerfully effective voice acting I've ever heard in English. Keith Silverstein and especially Ashly Burch did an amazing job there.

I sure said that!

I need to watch a Let's Play or something of Persona Q. I have no experience with Etrian Odyssey so I have no idea if the gameplay would appeal to me at all.

Really from Jupiter, but not an alien.

I have seen some people saying they disliked gameplay, but for me it was actually the reason to eventually try out an Etrian Odyssey game. If you like casts of both P3 and P4, at least checking out cutscenes is a good idea, there are a lot of really funny and cute moments. Of course there are also some bad and boring ones, but overall it is worth it.

I really liked Persona Q, even if it was a weird way to really start getting into the Persona games. It made me want to play the EO games, and I was really close to buying the 3DS remake of the first one, but I needed to hold off.

I really enjoyed Q. Until I just... stopped. It became very tedious to me. Combat was a chore, and there wasn't enough of the characters I liked. Just too many characters meant not enough focus on my favorites, not to mention the flanderization. It was just like a switch flipped for me during the last dungeon and I just decided I was done.

I couldn't even muster the interest to look at a let's play of Persona Q. The premise just didn't interest me, and came off as super bleh.

The thing with Q is that when it's good, it's really exceptionally good, but when it's not it can be a real slog. A lot of it depends on how much you like Wizardrylikes.

I sure said that!
