[Galang]

Some waifu appreciation gifs


Reposted for some love!

She's the best one!

What's her name tho?

 

[varkuriru]

Just saw it.. There are no words.

 

[Cornbread78]

So I just watched that trailer and it looked pretty great to me. The kicker is that I've never played a Persona game before. So if I were to jump into P5 would I be totally lost in a sense or is it somewhat approachable for new players in terms of the lore and all that?

The stories and main characters are all different, but there have been references to previous entries through a couple continuous characters, but you will be absolutely fine just jumping in now.

 

[Hidden One]

My waifu!! Best girl so far!!

Your waifu is a slut

No I'm not

 

[Sesuadra]

Ann is best waifu confirmed.

 

[Sami+]

Damn I almost feel like I saw too much. Looks amazing though, I'm really excited. The animations look so slick, it finally feels like Persona has evolved.

Fan service/10

Except for this, this shit's weird and uncomfortable and a huge downer but I guess they have to get those basement otaku sales

Adieu world!

This was super cool tho

 

[sora87]

Lol the menu's look better than the entirety of most other games

 

[poncle]

WTF did I just see?
Uncontainable style everywhere, with the the UI being a real killer.
I don't even want to play it, I'm just happy that this magnificent thing will exist.

You can jump into any game but Persona 2 Eternal Punishment.

 

[Cornbread78]

They're all self-contained games. Shouldn't have any issues.

Nothing, you can play P5 as you first Persona game and you'll not have any problems.

You'll be perfectly fine. At most there will be a cameo from a side character in P4 or the gang will visit Inaba (the town P4 is set in) during a vacation.

Totally approachable, don't worry!

You should be fine. P4 was my first (and only so far) Persona game. There are themes and a few characters that carry over between games but each story is its own.

I guess I was late with my answer, lol

 

[Akhe]

But but...

I love her = [

 

[DarkConfidant]

They're showing battles and stuff, but the part of the game I want to see most is the part when you kinda just hang around high school, and be a teenager.

Spoiler

Totally buying this day 1. The UI is worth it, alone.

Except for this, this shit's weird and uncomfortable and a huge downer but I guess they have to get those basement otaku sales

The strange thing is, I don't think they don't need to. This game could probably sell on gameplay and writing alone, if it's anything like Persona 4.

 

[Balls]

Anne still wins cause she'll always be the OG waifu.

 

[AthenaCykes]

This game looks so GOOD. The animations are sleek, HUD looks so stylish and the new characters look really hype. I actually cannot wait.

 

[DrunkShogun]

She's the best one!

What's her name tho?

Placeholder name is punchy or Kung fu girl. I will be disappointed if she ends up with a toxic personality.

 

[Rats Off To Ya]

Maaaaaan.

I need this. I NEED IT.

Lady with the bike looks super cool. So does the "Adieu" girl.

Give it to me, Atlus!

 

[jediyoshi]

dat rpg ntr

 

[Philippo]

I wasn't gonna say anything the first time you said you guessed, but I'm pretty sure you're hearing Ryuuji say the shortened form of というか、さあ (to iu ka, saa, shortened to tsuu ka sa).

The line being what it is, it also doesn't make sense that he's saying it to a character named Tsukasa, especially when Morgana responds.

You think so? Lol there's always something i don't know lol
Though it doesn't seems like Ryuuji is replying directly to Morgana (also what is he saying, he goes "tsuu ka sa/tsukasa, nakanaka---" but i can't hear the rest) , more like the usual mash-up of lines from the same scene :/

 

[daveo42]

Nah, FF ain't sweatin. It's nice to have a variety of different game styles.

Variety yes. But persona in a 60+ hour experience. Some of us don't have time to dedicate to two massive RPGs. Depending on length, I might even sink more time into this than P4G, which was about 140hrs for the True Ending.

 

[LTWood12]

daaaaaaaaaaamn that trailer. It's like a dream.

 

[AmaterasuOni]

None of the recent (PS2 onward) games thus far have been directly connected as far as the numbered main series games go.

The spin-offs like Arena, and Q have direct connections to each other though (considering their entire premise is built on it).

Literally the only connection 4 had to 3 was a nod in the form of side character from the previous game showing up in a throw away scene. 3 had absolutely no connections to the previous 2.

Cool, thanks!

 

[HardRojo]

Style all over the place! Now announce a release date for the West please!

 

[silva1991]

Phantom - Knives for melee, handguns for ranged
Ryuji - Pipes and clubs for melee, (pump action?) shotguns for ranged
Ann - Whips for melee, SMG for ranged
Morgana - Cutlasses for melee, giant slingshots for ranged
Yusuke - Katanas for melee
Biker girl - Gloves and cestuses for melee, magnums for ranged
Robin Hood Girl - Great axes for melee, (tactical?) shotgun for ranged

The robin hood girl is using a halberd.

and it looks like Gundyr's

Please don't be the kung fu girl like Chie. She was annoying enough with those quotes.

I can see her being the tough customer type like kanji though.

 

[Cornbread78]

I forgot she goes from twin tails to drill hair...

That's a tough one to beat, lol

 

[the_sun_king]

Puritanical America is going to strike this down.

This isn't being released by Nintendo of America and mainline SMT and Persona games are rated M. So nothing to worry about.

 

[Soriku]

Puritanical America is going to strike this down.

Why are people acting like this is the first swimsuit anime scene they've seen in a game...including P3/P4? It'll be intact.

 

[bomblord1]

Puritanical America is going to strike this down.

If they are shooting for an M rating or don't care the box says "sexual content and partial nudity" I think they'll be good.

 

[shadowkat]

It just looks amazing.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

This is going to be the best thing ever, isn't it?

Like, that whole thing just looked so damn good... I'm starting to understand where all the time went waiting for this damn thing. If this wasn't already my most anticipated game for this year, it sure as hell is now.

 

[Hentailover]

So, what's everybody's team gonna look like?

Mine will be:
- Biker Waifu
- french grill
- Fox guy

 

[Newtype-001]

But but...

Yeah chie became a living trope by the end of persona 4. I'm hopin she's a detective whose after you but then joins you. She looks a lot more formal dress then the rest.

 

[Mortemis]

Looks so fucking amazing. The dungeons are too good.

This is exactly what I needed to get excited again!

 

[Astral]

Wow that was better than I thought it'd be. This looks incredible. Atlus please don't let US wait too long.

Spoiler

Oh and EU too I guess.

 

[LumpOfCole]

Begun, the Best Girl Wars have.

 

[JCX]

Simply gorgeous. I'll need to rewatch a few times just to take in all the detail.

 

[Philippo]

So, what's everybody's team gonna look like?

Yusuke (for dat katana and Goemon) and French Love of My Life (even if we don't know her Persona) for sure, don't know about the 4th slot.

 

[Hedge]

That UI is terrible. It's so chaotic and takes too much screen space. Every time the MC went past a character in the city, that stupid splotch of inky-text pops up.
Maybe they're going for the crazy and out-of-control visual to emphasize the wacky cast, I don't know, but it's much too busy for me.

 

[Man Called Aerodynamics]

Incredible. Most stylish game ever made?

I'd be down for that. I need another Naoto-like character in my life :3

 

[Setsu00]

- french grill
- Fox guy

I'll definitely take Yusuke with me, but I'm unsure about the others. Depends on their Personas.

 

[the_sun_king]

First person I've ever seen say this game has terrible UI. Oh well. :\

I personally think it's gonna spoil UI design for every other video game from here on out for me. There's NOTHING that really looks like P5's graphic design out there.

 

[StrikeFirst117]

Holy fucking shit I need this in my life, awesome no more delays.
