      Kek. Man the rejection scenes are just as brutal as I was hoping. Yukari literally cries and runs away while Aigis pauses after calling you friend later. It's glorious.
      And think about it, it's either that or them cradling Door's dead body in just a couple of months. This is mercy in comparison.

          The Answer still happens no matter what so they had to make Yukari and Aigis take it more personally than the others and that's why they make it clear that they still have feelings for Door. Fuuka and Mitsuru are clearly shaken but don't dwell on it nearly as much.
          While sad, I prefer this over the Schrodinger love interest that P4 and P5 use a lot, where if you choose to go for that path then they always loved you, but if you don't confess then they don't make any move to imply they ever liked you. It's jarring and not good for the characters I think.

          Nothing will ever reach P3's stakes anyway. The Fall was pretty much the absolute death of all carbon-based lifeforms on the planet. It might be possible to recover from anything else. P1, P2, P4, P5, no matter what happens, as long as there's some form of life left, the possibility of recovery isn't absolutely zero. But if literally everything on the planet dies, then that's a decisive end to all possibility. You can't get more final than that. Things can't get better, nor can they get worse. It's just eternal stagnation.

            We know that in this world Persona users and divine beings trying to interfere aren't that weird, so suddenly declaring that because one group allowed one god to get out of control and it destroyed the world for everyone else feels too much.

      You can go ahead and get Persona 5 since they are done with it, but wait for Persona 3 since it is getting DLC and 70 bucks is already a fricking robbery.

Aigis suffered the least but I think the new artstyle makes her look too cute and not robotic enough, like I think her eyes used to look a lot more cybernetic.

    I'll be really honest about this, as someone whose favorite Persona game by far and away was once P3P (mainly because I was able to play it endlessly in bed back when I was in school), but playing P3R after P5R I'm really not sure which one I like more. The back-ported improvements to Persona 3 really increase the fluidity of everything, but when I think about comparing the two, it's hard to tell which one I like more.

    Which is not to say I think either game is bad. I shamelessly put 90 hours into Persona 5 Royal, and I imagine it'll be a similar story with Persona 3 Reload, but the 5 cast really grew on me in a way that was much less pronounced in Persona 3 OG. If Reload significantly ramps up the character dynamics maybe it'll be a good contender. Either way, good game, annoying that I need to choose between playing Persona 3 Reload, Granblue Fantasy Relink, and Baldur's Gate 3 for the umpteenth time, but at least they're all quality games.

      Yeah, I'm surprised they didn't polish it as much as they should have. A lot of the social links are still boring and require you to encourage the characters self destructive impulses to maximize the points, and the story still has some batches where something else could have been added.

        Well, the second point is deliberate, isn't it? Yu and Ren are different takes on helping people through positivity, but in P3 you build social links by manipulating, hence the reward at the end. Doesn't change the fact that most of 3's are trash that didn't need to be kept.

      It's been retranslated, but it keeps very close to the original Japanese script. In terms of censoring, the beach scene is easily the most blatant example and a clear exception overall. The scene was also changed in Japanese, so the translators would have had to go off-script to keep the same gag. Only other slight censor worth mentioning is that the shower scene shows a little less skin, but it's still there in full effect otherwise. In short, yeah, it's pretty low censorship here. You just about covered all of it.

The new shadow behaviors are good but are almost never scene or used in an interesting way. Tarturus itself is kinda more bland now in terms of aesthetics and design. I have a taste of a lot of the new content is kinda mid where it boils down to 5 new lines and not much more. The only thing really cool that is new is Monad, and it's only a small part of the combat. You get what I'm trying to say how it's mostly just P3 again?

          Nah. IS has always been the more successful of the two by far. The reason EP seems more successful is because it was the only one that was localized for the longest time and barely anyone bought P2IS on the PSP. But at least in Japan, IS is twice as popular as EP.

    I'm playing P3R for like 5 hours and even if it's a good looking game, P3R have the same problems that made me drop the original game.
    Tartaros fricking sucks and it's repetitive as frick, it's like they took Persona 5 and removed the interesting parts, bosses, dungeons per bosses, demons, even the majority of the confidants are bland.
    The game can sell well, but still is inferior to P5/P5R, they lost the oportunity to make it less repetitive and the dungeons more interesting with Palaces. No one plays P5 just for Mementos.

      Atlus has a very stern sort of stance when it comes to remakes or enhanced version. They don't set out to change things, but only set out to either add things or try to enhance things. It's good for people who don't want to see a FF7 Remake situation for a Persona game, but it has its own downsides as well.
      I like Reload, but I knew I was essentially getting P3 with a new coat of paint which is why I'm glad there is going to be a new Hashino game by the end of this year because P6 is a year or 2 away.

    The only nitpick I have with Reload was the approach to the intro and awakening cutscenes. Even with the higher budget the remade scenes don't really have the same impact. Do the later cutscenes in Reload have the same level of directing?

    If I’m only going to play P4 or P3 which should I pick?

    • 3 months ago
      Anonymous

      depends a bit, P3R is probably a definitive content complete Persona game. P4 vanilla is great but Golden is locked to upscaled vita graphics.

      P4G is still my favorite persona game, even after Reloaded since my vita was my only friend at college. P3R is a pretty mature/dark story where you dont really make friends with your party members cause you're trying to save the world from being destroyed while Persona 4 is the literal power of friendship and the stakes arent as high so theres more time to fool around and get a scooter license.

      So I'd probably base it on how you want your jrpg to be, but P3R is so fricking good I wish we would get P4G remake proper

      If you mean going for walks, then not really. You’ll get an item and maybe a boost to one of daytime links if you’re lucky.
      Brushing and watching TV are worthwhile, since they unlock Koromaru’s passive skill. They also give some social stats.
      Pseudo-S.Link events (daytime, exclamation mark) are also worthwhile. One of them gives a base stat boost to Cerberus.

          He's not particularly helpful outside of Debilitate and his second Theurgy. Also his Theurgy charges slowly against bosses because bosses have no weaknesses to exploit. You can really tell that they deliberately gimped him due to how broken his Theurgy is.

          I'm pretty sure the reason they ported portable instead of FES is because they actually lost the source code for FES and just didn't want to bother trying to get around that

      Pre-final city in P3 is fricking kino. P4 and P5 not even close.

        I agree P3 nails the towards the climax angle best, but P4 city covered in fog with no background music and p5 being made public enemy number 1 and only being able to sneak around not even go to school were still both pretty kino.

        Really don’t understand people who keep going “MAN P3’S FINAL MONTH IS SO BORING BRO!”
        One of the best buildups to a finale I’ve seen in vidya, Anon was right, P4 and P5 lack so hard in their final months because they’re a mess compared to P3’s ending

          Plot wise P3 is miles ahead 4 and 5, especially when SEES personal struggles are not tied to the MC and they grow up on their own.

            This is still the most baffling change Atlus has made to the series. The MC should live in that world to help change it, not the world revolving around the MC every waking moment
            Akihiko’s awakening scene being in private was what made it so memorable and kino.
            Now imagine the same scene except Makoto is standing there nodding and telling Akihiko what he should feel so he would awaken. And you got P4/5…

              It's a video game. The game's world and elements reflect your actions and your choices. P3 was interesting because it was all in on the sim angle and did weird shit like making your party members uncontrollable. But 4 and 5 are much better games for how they develop the Social Link system for the game part of the game.

              but the MCs only really help Yosuke, Ryuji and Ann with their initial awakenings which are the equivalents of P3's ultimates

              I think the problem lies on the philosophy behind the party members. In 4 and 5, they are the focus of the story where they get their designated spotlight and development, while the rest is tied to how well you accomplish it, making your relationship to that person important matter gameplay wise with the final reward being their improved persona. This also comes at the cost of them fading in the background of the main story after their focus in the story is removed. In 3, while they get less one on one character interactions, them being independent from your own progress makes them much better at working with the overall story.
              There should be a middle ground where you can interact with them properly and tie that to the gameplay without that meaning that they just become a gimmicky cheerleader during the serious scenes.
