So tonight was a "Persona-related announcement". Let's get to this shit. Atlus was hyping three announcements, so I guess I'll describe each one a little bit. I'm sure Siliconera will do so and do much better at it later because they have writers who know Japanese, but oh well. 1) Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth https://twitter.com/jurnalotaku/status/404565895751553024/photo/1 This seems to be a non-canon crossover between Persona 3/4. It's obviously non-canon because the trailer showed, to say the least, someone who should not be there in a continuation. As for the story, some new guy with a sinister appearance and some girl appeared. I'm going to guess these are the antagonists, at least for now. Gameplay looks to be typical Persona as far as I saw, which works. I wouldn't expect them to re-invent the wheel when it works so well. I would expect tweaks but we saw little gameplay. The artstyle is chibi in nature. I suppose this is because the 3DS isn't powerful enough for the normal Persona artstyle. I'd obviously prefer it in the vein of 3/4 but I'll take what I can get. Not what I was expecting but I'll definitely get this. 2) Persona 4 Arena 2 Whatever It Is https://twitter.com/jurnalotaku/status/404571541611900928/photo/1 Because fuck if I'm looking for that title. The game looks to be more of the same. If there are new gameplay tweaks, I wouldn't know. This isn't necessarily a bad thing; P4A worked well enough and was balanced by all accounts. Some new male character with red hair was introduced. He seems to be the obvious villain here. I couldn't understand anything so idk what his motivation is, but I'd guess he's linked to the power outage and the Tartarus-looking tower we saw in the trailer. I'd also like to point out that Yukari is fucking stylin'. She wears her usual pink but damn that outfit is awesome. Adachi is here too; it'll be interesting to see how his being here is justified. I'll probably get this, but on day one? I don't know. I spent $60 on the last one and didn't play it much. I don't regret it because Persona, but it might not be a wise choice to get it ASAP, especially considering that would better go towards monitor #2 or a Wii U. 3) Persona 4 Dancing All Night https://twitter.com/jurnalotaku/status/404566908826968064/photo/1 https://twitter.com/jurnalotaku/status/404569175927955456/photo/1 Does anybody here give a damn about this? I'd be hard-pressed to say that cosecant might care, and he has a Vita. In any case, it's obviously a rhythm game, but I can't tell how it's played. My best guess is that it uses the touchscreen, like Theatrhythm, but I don't know. After this, there was basically a long sequence with Teddie replying to comments from the Nico Nico stream. All we got out of that of any importance was "We hope you enjoy these offerings while we work on the next main Persona game." The effort put into each of these games could have gone towards Persona 5, but whatever. If it ended this way... There would have been blood. 4) Persona 5 https://twitter.com/jurnalotaku/status/404576904759373824/photo/1 After the Teddie bullshit we got a red screen that said "55:555", which started scrolling down. Once THAT ended, a screen with one chair was shown, then four more chairs were added, each with a ball and chain on their left leg. The screen went black, then showed a ball and chain on all of the chairs. The message was "You are slave. Want emancipation?" as you can see. So I assume that Persona 5's message is going to be something about freeing yourself. But from what? Both 3/4 already have this message to an extent, anyway. Here's what you want to know: Winter 2014. PS3 only (so far). So I'm assuming around March-July 2015 in America, unless they're translating the script as they go (like Pokemon X/Y).

It'd have been maximum trolling, but Atlus started development in 2011, when they were developing Catherine. That and Atlus generally doesn't embrace a new home console very early. It's too expensive for most Japanese publishers to make their games on a new system right away, if at all. That and most of their audience is now on portable/mobile, anyway. So yeah, I expected PS3/360/maybe Wii U. Seems that P4A2 is a PS3 exclusive. While this wouldn't surprise me (360 users? caring about Persona?), we don't know yet. |

To the best of my knowledge, the 360 has a pretty intense fighting game community, which includes the "anime fighters" like BlazBlue, Skullgirls, and P4A. That community's been shifting a bit to the PS3 in recent years, but I'm still kind of surprised that it's only Playstaton 3. |

I suppose, but if Atlus isn't bringing this to 360 after they brought P4A to that console, I'd have to assume the sales weren't that great. Not that you'd expect great sales of a spinoff of a niche series, but still. Anyway, leaving some trailer links here. http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/24/persona-4-ultimax-suplex-hold-coming-ps3-next-year/ http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/24/project-diva-developer-working-persona-4-dancing-night/ http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/24/persona-q-shadow-labyrinth-trailer-gives-first-look-game/ http://www.siliconera.com/2013/11/24/persona-5-coming-ps3-winter-2014/ |

http://www.destructoid.com/atlus-is-the-undeniable-king-of-trolls-266327.phtml Not news really, but yeah, this is about how I felt when that Vita rhythm game was implied to be the last announcement. The Twitch stream was hilarious. There were like 600 people there and a good amount of them were cussing and shit at the lack of a Persona 5 announcement. As you can guess, their tune quickly changed once we finally saw that glorious, glorious teaser. (I was chatting in another room and while our reactions weren't that extreme, we were all trolled too.) |

Wouldn't be Atlus if it were any other way. Famitsu recently interviewed Persona series director, Katsura Hashino. He didn't really reveal much though other than Persona Q will be using Etrian Odyssey's system. Also said PQ is in its testing phase, and Dancing All Night is "pretty much done". Nothing on Persona 5 other than what we knew: he's directing, Shigenori Soejima is doing character designs (the best), and Shoji Meguro is doing music (the best). |

Remember the days when we thought Shoji Meguro was directing? But yeah, Shoji Meguro doing the music pretty much assures greatness. So it sounds like Persona Q will be a dungeon crawler. Great news to me; Strange Journey is one of my favorites in the SMT series, in large part because it has defined dungeons that are just batshit insane. The uninspired dungeons of other SMT games (outside of maybe Nocturne's Labyrinth of Amala) do nothing for me. As for the gameplay of Etrian Odyssey, I don't think I've played enough of that series to have an opinion, but as long as it still retains elements that would make it a Persona game I'll probably be cool with it. But yeah, non-randomly generated dungeons would probably make Persona 5 a favorite, at least in the gameplay department. That's always been one of my biggest gripes, if not the biggest. |
