Glad a PS4 version was announced, but yea, hopefully the wait between the jp release and western release isn't too far apart.

 

[DirtyManos]

Can't fucking wait.

Will take a week long vacation for this.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

the only thing that kept me alive in that conference

 

[bonercop]

i know right? what is all this extreme nuthugging

??? The MC looks like the most generic anime dude I've ever seen. Edit: I'm exaggerating, but still. This wasn't a good first impression.

Sane people, unite! His face looks to much like the P4 protagonist too.

 

[Love Deterrence]

[Nesther]

I wonder if he's still a high schooler? Looks a bit older and more mature than the past MCs.

 

[ilium]

Bloodborne and this make it REALLY hard to resist making the jump to next gen DD:

I like the Design. Simple and elegant.

[CielTynave]

Neat, but I'll still probably go with the PS3 version.

High schooler.

 

[cj_iwakura]

If that's the main character, that's actually pretty interesting. I can't remember the last time a JRPG protag was the intellectual type. Bit on the scrawny side though. :/

It's nice they're breaking new ground.


Looks like he goes to a very strict academy.

 

[GSR]

Atlus doesn't acknowledge those Personas.

I know. But someone has to carry on the cycle of irrational hopes with every new Persona release.

 

[Omnii-chan]

Trailer got me so hyped.
Loving the MC, loving the color scheme, loving the logo.
The game will probably be full of cut scenes of this quality.
Now its coming to PS4, hell yes.

 

[Sojgat]

Well shit, this is unexpected. Time to pack away the PS3 methinks.

Edit: Actually, I bet I've said this "would never happen" in a few threads. Time to eat crow.

 

[Jachaos]

This show was like 75% cross-gen games. I'm not getting my hopes up.


I can't be disappointed if it doesn't happen! But if it does get announced for the west then I can hype with everyone else!

Why would they localize only the PS3 version? If they're to localize one, they'll localize both. Very minimal impact on the budget, console with a much stronger momentum.

 

[RocBase]

Money? Who knows.

I'm just not going to rest assured till we actually get a confirmation because stupid shit has happened before.

that's fair
c'mon sugar daddy sony, ensure this happens

 

[Kitzilla]

reminds me of

 

[Akainu]

I just hope the bodies are proportionate and the animations don't suck.

 

[santeesioux]

I just played through 3 and 4 over the summer and this is my legit most hyped upcoming game, only possibly Star Wars Battlefront and MGS5 can compete with it. This announcement just makes me that much more excited.

 

[HazySaiyan]

 

[Caelestis]

Really glad for the PS4 announcement. Love the character design, too.

 

[Asd202]

the only thing that kept me alive in that conference

Can't wait to see your hype post for TGS .

Spoiler

They will be futile though .

 

[Coolbgdog12]

If you have a PS4 and Vita you basically can pretend you have the Vita version with remote play.

 

[li bur]

The MC look kind of mature, however he still wears something like uniform. College settings with mandatory uniform perhaps?

Spoiler

impossible i know

 

[lewisgone]

Great news. Finished Persona 4 Golden last month and was just thinking about how when I go home I wouldn't have any need for my PS3 outside of waiting for Persona 5 (have no real desire to go back to the games I own on it). The only PS3 game I wanted to play but hadn't gotten yet was The Last Of Us which is now on Playstation 4. I guess I'm gonna get a PS4 then.

 

[Renpatsu]

Hmn... Import P5 for PS3, then buy a PS4 once the localisation is announced?

 

[PokéKong]

looks like an aged crossbreed of p3 and p4 protag, and is that a university emblem on his coat?

 

[sgjackson]

I thought that too, but cellphones and a tablet advertisement, seems contemporary.

yeah, that's true. if it's just a weird coincidence or stylistic choice i'd be surprised, though - maybe we're investigating something from the past and there's flashbacks or something.

 

[Faustek]

Well shit, this is unexpected. Time to pack away the PS3 methinks.

Not yet. Pretty sure there are coming a few PS3 exclusive RPGs. I think

Anyway, HELL YES!

 

[Shojx]

Although part of me would prefer if they just developed one version, I guess getting a PS4 version could be beneficial in its own way.

Assuming he's the new MC, he looks so refreshing after seeing so much of the same old P3 / P4 crew over and over. It's nothing crazy but I really like his design.

 

[LuuKyK]

The symbol on his uniform reminds me of a police department or something. He got a detective vibe too. I know the theme going by the website and everything else is school, but still...

 

[Coolbgdog12]

This thread title is immaculate. I almost went to sleep but something told me to get back on here and check and I was greeted to this. Wow.

 

[Hours Left]

It's nice they're breaking new ground.


Looks like he goes to a very strict academy.

Maybe a university???

*dreams*

 

[Immaculate]

still takes place in high school

 

[jkh33]

Damn Cool!

 

[AkimbO_Arcana]

Well sure but by that I meant it's going to have higher resolution and stuff.

Guess that might be the case. Well, I'm just not the type of guy who thinks 720p is unplayable or someting. I'll double dip this fucker

 

[Raytow]

LOL at the possibility of Sho being the MC, not a snowball chance in hell.

 

[Thoraxes]

Why would they localize only the PS3 version? If they're to localize one, they'll localize both. Very minimal impact on the budget, console with a much stronger momentum.

Having to QA and cert both is a lot of money. Not to mention separate debugging for both versions increases localization and dev time by a lot.

I want it to happen, but i'm not getting excited till I hear it from the horses mouth. The disappointment would crush me lol

that's fair
c'mon sugar daddy sony, ensure this happens

I pray with you!

 

[sn00zer]

Is that a high school uniform?

 

[OmegaSmash]

The logo looks super weird, yet bold and impactful. I like it. The MC's design also looks fantastic. He looks like a real wimp geek, which makes him look different than "mysterious" MC and "suave" Protag.

 

[Steel]

Definitely the best announcement out of the conference.

Looks like what would happen if the persona 3 and 4 protag had a baby.

 

[swnny]

With this announcement, I still hope they will localize both versions in NA/EU. My PS3 is sooo ready for this, don't disappoint me.

 

[trinest]

Shibuya.....looking at his phone...freeze frame....monsters....

[Admiral Woofington]

I loved Yu, but let's be honest he looked like a hipster.

This guy looks like the sexy intellectual type. He'll bring the waifus over to study with in his dorm room

STUDY BIOLOGY.


AMIRITE.

 

[Ragingnight]

Maybe a university???

*dreams*

why would you want him to go to an university? You know university live in EU/NA is nothing close to university life in japan right?

 

[Oldsql]

What a great news after waking up. I was hoping for a release on PSNow, but I didn't expect a PS4 version. Time to pack away my fat PS3 I guess.

 

[Jachaos]

If you have a PS4 and Vita you basically can pretend you have the Vita version with remote play.

Hm, you know, this usually doesn't work that way because of the input lag, but in an RPG, you're right!

 

[Hasney]

Sounds like I can pack my PS3 away then. Not a single thing I want for it now. WOO

 

[Ultimadrago]

I loved Yu, but let's be honest he looked like a hipster.

AMIRITE.

"STEM or Bust" type for sure.

 

[Nibel]

Kind of weird when a port is the best news of a 2h conference. Currently playing P4G for the first time on Vita and getting the appeal of the game more and more. I'm excited for this one.

 

[Hours Left]

I just don't want the cast to be high schoolers.

I don't care what they do.
