WW: April 4, 2017

We are now officially two months away from the worldwide release of Persona 5, the latest installment of the Persona series from Atlus. The game is currently available in Japan, and its sole review score is a 39/40 from Famitsu.

What are you most excited about in Persona 5?

[Fox]

It's gonna be my first Persona game and I'm going pretty much blind! I think this is the one where they don't have dual audio though which is super annoying for me. I'd rather play in Japanese for the practice but I'm not good enough yet to have all the text in Japanese as well...

Oh well. It's a small thing. I'm super pumped for this game and avoiding most of the run up media for it. I've watched a few trailers and this is the first game I've ever seen that I would be willing to buy for the UI design alone. It's like Jet Set Radio but in an equipment menu. Beautiful.

I've already been listening to some of my favourite music tracks. Unfortunately, most of my favourite tracks don't involve the lead singer for this game, Lyn, but I think I've mentioned how I feel about her in previous threads.

The combat system looks amazing though, with all the new additions. Can't wait to play it!

Shhhh. Let people be active and excited about things. You know, you should try it yourself someday!

Do you intend to tell me you DON'T think Rivers in the Desert is the best ducking thing in existence?!


Also, I have tons of spoilers. But that's okay since I won't have a PS4 for a while now.

And do we really have to resort to putting games into each other like that?

[Mirage]

i... i can be excited too!

[Fynn]

Do it

You know it's being released for the PS3 as well right? Or do you just specifically want the PS4 version because you like suffering?

[Fynn]

I have neither and refuse to buy a dead console

[Slothy]

That seems a bit silly to me. The PS3 has a pretty great library of games you could get caught up on and isn't very expensive anymore.

[Fynn]

Most games that interest me on that platform are already available through other means that are accessible to me. And not only are video games and related things 50% more expensive in Europe, I live in a country the economy of which is pretty crap and I'm saving for a house, so the most I can afford is like, buying a 3DS game every six months. So I think my reasoning's pretty sound in this. I'd rather wait to buy a PS4 later since it already has more titles that interest me AND it will be getting more games in the future.

[Slothy]

Fair enough. I do hear houses are expensive. It's why I've preferred to stick the old tried and true cardboard box for all of my housing needs.

[Fynn]

I've sadly reached a point that that won't suffice

[Mirage]

Do it

I am!

I'm just feeling miserable because i'm sick and haven't been able to eat more than two slices of bread since sunday.
