I wonder what shape the social link system will take this time. From what I saw of the artwork, the arcana is still there - the guys from that announcement are Hanged Man, Hierophant and Death - but they all kinda seem to be important to the game in other aspects (Sojiro being Futaba's dad, while the other two are the shop and nurse's office employees), so I wonder if we will get to get acquainted with randos again, and if there's gonna be a "rank up" system or anything. Very interested to see how this plays out.

In any case, every subsequent trailer is making me more and more excited. I am so happy that you have a cat along with you at all times, and I just love that UI. It's amazing in the school sections, with all the different sizes of character portraits just popping in, how "Mission Start" appears on the blackboard, how text messages are presented through an actual phone. The game is just so gorgeous. And then there's the battles, the negotiations, the all-out attacks, the battle results - everything just looks so right and you can tell the team has learned a whole lot from P3 and P4.

Also, dungeons - notice how there are puzzles and how you can find maps. No more randomly generated, endless, soulless dungeons where you just grind away between the fun social game. It just looks so much more involved and fun that I can't wait to play it! I also love how big the city looks and how organic just walking through it - or hell, even just the school! - is. All the places where you can take up part-time jobs, take baths. The world just seems so rich and I love it!

And honestly, I never knew how much I missed demons and demon negotiations in Persona until I saw those battles. Lookin' good, Pixie, Berith, Silky!
