Now The Everything, And Anything Related To Shin Megami Tensei Thread

I'd rather have physical media for Persona as well since I actually do want the sound tracks.

[FortNinety]

Uh oh... might be playing Persona after-all...

[Llydis]

What does 5.55 do anyway?

[FortNinety]

Annoy people with custom firmware, that's about it. These updates honestly do nothing.

Which is why I'm shocked why Atlus would do such a thing. Without having any scientific data, me thinks that folks who would play Persona are the type to run custom firmware, hardcore gamers and all, but would actually buy the game to support the franchise. Or perhaps I think too well of people.

BTW, for those might have missed it on the blog, check out this pretty nifty Persona 4 shirt I recently got...

[Llydis]

It can be if you don't get too attached to your personas and keep fusing them with others.

two hours of shit dialogue. the high points were lame innuendo and implied suicide.

im going to jump back into it later tonight but im not exactly faithful.

[The Drunken Samurai]

you are all high on hard drugs, this game fucking sucks

[FortNinety]

I love part 4 to death, but still have a soft spot for 3. I'd say just go to that one, but at this point, I'd say don't bother.

The fact that you were able to play and enjoy Final Fantasy 7 and not this leaves me totally befuddled.

That's always what I just assumed about this thread.

anyway i spent more time with this tonight and it doesnt seem like anything beyond a well developed date sim like the ones ive seen on newgrounds(with other elements of course). ive gotten into the groove of thing but im not particularly enthralled here. i give it a week or two of messing around with it.

at least its held my attention wayyy longer than something like the sims games.

[Llydis]

I think it gets more entertaining when the plot kicks in. Which... Is going to be more than a couple of in-game weeks.

I say if you don't like this, Persona 4 might be more for you. Sure it has the date sim aspects, but the plot kicks in more towards the start of the game.

[FortNinety]

Yeah, there's a lot more meat in P4, story-wise, plus the battle mechanics are far more involving, yet also streamlined.

But what's with this hate over the dating sim aspects? Banging virtual teenage girls is fucking awesome. Also, I recall you hating the soundtrack on Twitter, and it definitely has it's moments, but the music to P4 is simply rocking.
