Lots and lots of boss fights at the end.... Damn it! If they aren't meaningful or special then they're even more annoying and tiresome.

What if someone s t o l e it?Maybe no one's found it yet?
After all, the ending is a game's heart...
The if... DLC is the only one I'm seriously considering - I really like the uniforms and the music.
Even more surprising considering that it's a Hashino game.

It be stole so it can be sold! ;D
I first thought it was Satomi, but yeah... that's so weird.

That sounds kind of annoying. I'd love to be able to mix it up a bit when I inevitably get tired of a costume/song, but want to keep using the other.
Can't believe is tuesday already .. hoping we see a new dub clip + interview this week
Wondering which character is next , i go for Morgana or Ann (which her VA is still unknown to me) so im looking forward to "know" her.(despite i already i see a couples of her roles these days , she got the tone i think)
PD : Maybe Ryuji is the second video too ...

I really regret having started Innocent Sin on PSP. The loading times of the UMD version make it basically unenjoyable and super slowly paced. I like the mechanics but I'm considering just playing the emulated PS1 version with the fan translation instead. Persona 1 PSP on the other hand was really nice.
It's the only Persona I haven't finished and I'd really love to close this gap.

Satomi and Okada left during development, I believe, but they were involved heavily in part 1.
Do we know why Okada and Satomi left Atlus? I wonder how SMT would look like today if they were still there.
Okada felt like he was done with the series and that if he stayed at Atlus, he'd only be allowed to make more Megaten games.
Dunno why Satomi left, but it must've been on good enough terms that he was willing to come back to write the new scenario for P2EPP.
I've also felt that P5 takes some slight inspiration from DDS in some areas, or rather, some of Hashino's ideas from DDS have re-emerged in P5 in some way. Hard to explain what I mean.
It feels nostalgic to talk about the old staff, at least Kaneko is still there, but he's basically retired.
More experimental?
Isn't that what's basically happening with Hashino? If the comment about wanting to take a break from Persona is anything to go by.

I don't remember that, but I can see it with the backpacking idea. It's something different from the usual formula.

Well dunno seems like he at least could negotiate to make Catherine which is pretty damn out there in a way and was rather successful for them as well.
Feels like he has enough sway to negotiate for projects that serve as creative recharges if the team desires so.
It's the most DDS/Nocturne-ish game Hashino has made since, well, DDS and Nocturne.
It's really great, and I'm looking forward to everyone playing it. There's some really, really good stuff in there. My only concern at this point is the English dub, I guess. Hope it's good!
As far as going forwards, I think they'll struggle to make a game that improves on their current formula. I think they'll change things up next.
I'm torn. Half of me thinks they'll try to roll out a 6 relatively fast (two years?) on the same engine that's more iterative than it is inventive. The other half agrees with you and thinks they'll just swing for the fences with a game that won't be out for a while.
Why limit yourself to Persona? Atlus Musou, baby. Raidou and Minato team up to beat Nyarlatothep while Demi-Fiend distracts Babel on one side of the map and Nemissa holds off Lucifer on the other. Living the dream.
I want this too.

Agreed. If anything, it'll test how much I can ignore the spinoffs developments.
Just so we're clear, you mean the NEW main characters are adults, not returning characters?
Atlus should just hurry up and release P6 so they can milk P5 and P6 together. I'm also more than fine with them leaving P3 and P4 behind.
Honestly, I would want a Persona spin-off without recurring characters more than a P5 spin-off. Maybe a game where the main characters are adults?

I have a feeling we'll probably see Persona 6 in a few years. Longer than the timeframe from P3 to P4, but not as long as the tiemframe from P4 to P5.
More then likely we'll see them do another HD title of some sort tho. The only reason I wouldn't say "Shin Megami Tensei V" outright is because SMTIVA just came out on the 3DS.

This is the only spinoff I want. I don't care if the story is trash, I just love Arc fighters.

Lol.
If there was ever a time to make that untrue, now would be a good time I suppose
P4 used a lot of resources from P3 and came out fairly close to P3. I expect the same for P6. Maybe it will be announced in 2018, release in 2019. From what I've seen, P5's engine is enough to carry Atlus through this gen, and I don't see big structural change to the franchise.
It pains me to admit it, but I agree with Dantis
I don't think Persona and Musou would be a good fit
Honestly i see Persona 6 gets released around 2020-2021 minimum, see those guys having at least 1-2 P5 spinoffs before jump to P6 ....
Persona 5 Arena is a given i think at this point , see which engine is going to use is the question (something like Guilty or more simple like Blazblue / P4U)
* Betting for the later
But like i say before i will more excited to see them trying some new (like a Golden Playhouse one) than see another persona game (main / spinoff) gets announced this year / next

I meant a new MegaTen spin-off in the vein of Persona but not set in highschool. It should please those people that want Atlus to change the setting in Persona.
Agree 100 % i prefer ten times see P5 gets their spinoffs by they own , or crossover with a new cast aka P6 ( or idk something not possible like Catherine , SMT x FE , Apocalypse lol ) than see them getting involve in the shadow ops storylines or get fit in the summer after Golden of P4 .... i love P3 and P4 chars but really is time to put them to rest , and if they really need to bring back Narukami bonds team or Mitsuru squad just dont mix the phantoms into it...
Then Atlus send all to hell when we see the Phantom Thieves dealing with Sho bullshit or making friends with Labrys (or a new robo waifu) in "Arena 3" *sigh*
Uh, before a new Persona, I would prefer a new IP with its own characters under the MegaTen umbrella. Devil Survivor is fine, but when you compare it with Digital Devil Saga and Raidou Kuzunoha (yeah I know, it's a spin-off of a spin-off, but still was a new IP) and why not, Persona 3/4 it's kinda sad (*). Now Atlus have more horsepower to develop games in a PS3/PS4 and Sega it's a lot better than the disaster known as Index, I hope the situation improves.
(*) Yeah, I know, sad to MegaTen fans, but the need to develop in the DS was a blessing to Etrian Odyssey fans xD and thanks to the EO engine we have Strange Journey, hmmm.

The only reason I am agreeing is because I want Falcom Musou long before we get an Atlus/Persona Musou >.<;

I want an FF or FE Musou before that.

I dont even like musou, but I could agree to a Falcom Musou only if Sara Valestein is playable

Don't think Persona would work as a musou. I want a Danganronpa one lol

Falcom are perfectly capable of making their own fast paced action crossover games.

???? How would Persona Musou not work??? It could be a cool tribute to the series as a whole and actually have real time combat that some people wanna see.

Is it bad that agreeing with you worries me?
I'm not sure about Persona, but I have no idea how a Danganronpa musou would even look like. Maybe it just shows how uncreative I am.

I could see a few ways that a Danganronpa one could work, if they went with more of an Another Episode style setting.
I don't really see it fitting Persona though, especially if it would be a crossover with the established casts. I guess they made a dancing game work, but even then, story mode was basically a VN with a few minigames.

Then again, the Arena games' story was a VN with fights peppered in between (Labrys' story, anyone?)
Seriously, I could see Persona Warriors working. I'm not sure why people think it wouldn't work when Zelda pulled it off. Is this just fatigue setting in for some of you, or am I just deluded?
As for why Shadows suddenly became so densely packed hordes, "the collective unconscious" is an excellent hand-waving device.
