Based on the kind of game P3 is, you wouldn't think having the world be turned into VN menus would make that much of a difference but it honestly is very offputting in practice and part of the reason I didn't get very far in P 3 P.
Meanwhile, I'm in the corner, praying for fan trannslations of the P Sx SMT games.

They could pull what a ton of games do and just do a dual release in one game, a la the Kingdom Hearts collections or whatever
the reason i want 3 is because i wanna play as my dear FEMC but in HD and also with a full town to explore :o
"There's not a girl alive who wouldn't be happy being called cute." ~Tamamo-no-Maealright, time for the end of persona 3
...needing to do dungeon crawling before the final fights is so lame...
??? oh so strega was created by Ikutsuki??? that bastard. anyway time to fight Jin, who's all alone, and why is he even a threat?? we've got eight people and a dog, come on.
i'm, uh, also probably a bit overlevelled at 78. but it doesn't matter, because two turns of thunder reign were all that was needed to kill him. i wonder if he had any interesting mechanics.
oh, wow, more exposition. christ, kirijo. but that explains Strega. well, rip Jin, who exploded himself with the shadows we left him with. unfortunate
AAAAAHHH MORE FLOORS WHY
anyway it's takaya time. i'd pity you dude, but uh, you're a bastard.
another babycakes fight. but he gets to live, i guess.
alright. nyx time. wow, this final arena looks so, so cool. and nyx... looks creepy as hell geeze. poor ryoji's... everything. i'm glad they give and actual explanation for why we don't have eight people and a dog all punching this thing though.
changing through the different arcana is so freakin cool, but good LORD does this fight take forever. i do like how the fight definitely rewards players for having made a variety of personas, but doesn't outright punish players who haven't besides the fight being naturally harder. as with any long fight, though, the AI DEFINITELY made some stupid decisions omg. yukari, please, use mediarahan i promise it'll be fine.
.....and i lost because nyx randomly made me Enraged, doubling the damage i take, then Almighty Swings twice in a row, instantly killing me completely outside of my control. cool. that's cool. totally fine. i was only at the last phase of the fight at the end of it's health bar.
god. damnit persona 3. will you let me praise you for more than an hour at a time???
welp. guess i'm trying the fight another day, because this sure aint mine.

"There's not a girl alive who wouldn't be happy being called cute." ~Tamamo-no-MaeP1 and P2 are not structured for Slinks. They are generic JRP Gs mechanically and have more in common with Final Fantasy X than Persona 3-5.
At most you could rewrite the plot and extend it out to attempt an system like Trails of Cold Steel, which wouldn't really work with the fact that P1 and 2 take place over a really short timeframe.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
FINALLY. BEAT NYX.
FOUR. FOUR TIMES I LOST DESPITE BEING AT FULL HEALTH. BECAUSE OF NIGHT QUEEN AND BS RNG OMG
but death is dead. god. it's finally over. god i hate persona 3. i hate it so much. time for me to finally enjoy it again.
"There's not a girl alive who wouldn't be happy being called cute." ~Tamamo-no-Maesorry for the doublepost but
i finally beat the game
it made me cry, a lot, like a lot a lot.
i don't think there's much more i can say about the game other than the fact
that the story
is so, so, so very good
godspeed door-kun

I loved P3 and Portable's the only version I played. Would've been nice if it could keep the animated cutscenes, but honestly the way Portable did the Overworld was better for me. Made sweeping the area way faster. Also, not having to deal with stupid AI is a huge plus.
