Of course, Atlus isn't as money-chasing as a lot of other game companies so if they want to they probably will mix things up. And that's what I figured you meant when you said online capabilities, but as a whole I've just never been big about that sort of stuff in JRPGs, I guess I just prefer them as solitary experiences. The first cut scenes in both games are solid looking, but they deteriorate throughout the game and the first scenes still aren't to the level of most studios. I'm curious to see how the P3 movie will look, because I know the same studio that did the P4 anime and all the in game cut scenes did that, and the preview looked semi-promising, but that won't get subs for ages. Maybe I've just been spoiled by Kyoani shows or something. https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=264746#264746 Anonymous Wed, 27 Nov 2013 23:17:38 GMT https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=264746#264746 https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=264734#264734 Author: <a href='https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=18748'>Jackwc</a><br /><br /> Posted: 11/28/2013 02:54<br /> <br /><br /> <br /><br /> In all fairness, social links weren't very Persona until Atlus made them a core part of gameplay in P3, so you never know, they tend to mix shit up.<br /> <br /> As far as online functionality is concerned, I want to clarify that I don't mean, like, online match modes or anything, but maybe some sort of in-game social network or possible trading system.<br /> <br /> But as for cutscenes - are you shitting me?

The idea of more inter-character relations is something I'd really love, and I'd love for cutscenes to reflect your relationship with the characters more too. The anime cutscenes in 3 and 4 were never that well animated though, so unless they can get a new studio to do them I see no reason for there to be more. Side quests being fleshed out would be great, and I think I would love for social to branch out more too, rather than just being slower if you say bad things or occasionally reversing. As for the harem or no harem thing, I do agree that there should be more consequence and you should only be able to date one girl, but I found it awful how you could only do the social link for one girl in 3 because otherwise they would get pissed. If they could find a good balance between 4 and 3 on that I think that would be best. Also totally agree on being able to choose your gender in the main game. I don't see them doing a paradigm system or anything like that though, because Atlus generally prefers to keep JRPG combat systems more traditional so they probably wouldn't put something that convenient in out of principal. Online functionality and a more than two or three endings wouldn't really fit Persona either. Also there's no reason to not put dual audio in, I'll probably still play in English since Atlus has good localization and I do prefer video games in English, but I'd like to have the option for the Japanese voices. https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=264731#264731 Anonymous Wed, 27 Nov 2013 21:33:05 GMT https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=264731#264731 https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=264727#264727 Author: <a href='https://www.besteveralbums.com/forums/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=18748'>Jackwc</a><br /><br /> Posted: 11/28/2013 02:17<br /> <br /><br /> <br /><br /> They've been working on this game since 2009 apparently, so I'm imagining it's going to come with a lot of improvements.<br /> <br /> I have a *ahem* personal wish list of things I'd like to see in Persona 5.<br /> <br /> - A more dynamic character-interaction system, a "branched path" system.<br /> - More Arcana decisions, sorta like how Persona 4 teased this with offering two Sun Arcana options and two Strength Arcana options? Like, there would be a couple students who would be the same Arcana and you'd have to choose one of them to link with.<br /> - More inter-character relations. One thing I thought was pretty cool in Persona 4 was when you'd be doing something like going to the mall with Yukiko and then some bitch like Ai would show up and call you out for two-timing her? That was pretty cool.<br /> - More of those slick anime cutscenes. In HD. My body is ready.<br /> - Fully-voiced NPCs.<br /> - Bring back the Persona 3 fusion spell system. I don't know why they took this out of Persona 4.<br /> - Create a paradigm-system for quick battle. So, like, if I'm fighting enemies way beyond my level that are weak against agi just set "quick battle agi" and your characters who have agi and it'll make quick battle quicker.<br /> - Side quests that require you actually do something. No I'm not going across the fucking street to "find your sister" or "feed your cat" unless finding her requires me to do some actual thinking, puzzle solving, or beating things up.<br /> - Make it so there are actual consequences to dating eight girls at once. Yeah, Japan, I know you love your harem fantasies, but this isn't the place. Also, an option to be gay would be cool. Ain't mandatory, but it'd be cool - also gender choices, like they did in the Persona 3 PSP port.<br /> - Heard people say they want character customization, but Atlus is usually pretty firm in not swinging that way, they like their own art direction in their games.<br /> - I understand why, from a story-telling perspective, multiple endings can weaken an artist's original intentions and also cost an unnecessary extra amount of cash, but it'd be cool. Just sayin' Atlus, I ain't hatin' if you stick to two again, but I'm just sayin'.<br /> - I hear a lot of people asking for dual audio but I'm not a fucking weeaboo so I'll take my video games in English thanks.<br /> - I liked those special outfits in P3FES, want 'em back. Want more of 'em.<br /> - ...online functionalityyyy?
