The Answer was shit, and you're shit for liking it.
The 2D graphics and models will all probably get mods for the Steam release within the first month, assuming they just steal all the good ones from the console P3P/FES modding scenes. Maybe a bit longer for them to figure out how to add in the compendium from FES.
2D graphics? What the frick are you talking about?
Also, it's pretty hard to actually port them, just accept that even with the 3d environment portable is still a different experience from persona 3
This game literally cuts half the filler and removes a really shitty extra post-story campaign and adds a full what if gender swap campaign that had more effort put in.
Also FeMC replaces nearly all of the shitty social links with mostly better ones. Ken's is shit but there's only so much you can do with a bad character.
its not, its pretty comfy as long as you dont pay fatlus for the rerelease lol just get the only notable PSP emulator and the ISO and you have a good 60+ hour game, better yet if you can run it on a handheld its super comfy
It's bad now cause Persona is more popular and Ganker hates popular things. When P3P came out Ganker was sucking it's dick and The Answer was a complete piece of shit that people where told to avoid.
Funny how much of a u-turn the opinion on The Answer had ever since the version revealed to be rereleased was the PSP version. Now it's the best thing ever and the rereleases are garbage as it doesn't have it.

They suck because their motivations and characters are barely explored beyond Chidori who would've made a better party member than Ken or Koromaru.
>first persona game to add social features and 3D models >the pocket additions that make everything a VN is the one that gets ported and is the "definitive version"
The visual novel part of portable is not the only problem it has, everything has been touched
I've never seen a "re-release" touching the gameplay of a game so much like portable
Oh no, it made P3 into a game you actually play instead of fighting and trying to fix the shit AI that can and will frick you over even at its best. How terrible.
>tacticslet
lemme guess, are you one of those types that blaze through every jrpg with default equips and wonder why you suck so much donkey dick in the game?
Literally the only reason ever given is not being able to see the shitty low budget cutesy 3D models that contrast horribly with the tone of the game. They get filtered by having the maps be more or less like the PSX games.
It's missing the GAME portion of everything but Tartarus and battles. lolz A "point-n-clock" mouse text adventure with static portraits is NOT Persona 3.
Feels like a low-budget mobile game version of Persona 3
All 3D locations and character models and animations removed
All cutscenes 3D cutscenes romoved
All anime cutscenes removed
Tries to be a straight up Visual Novel but doesn't have any extended descriptions, monologues, or narration
Low-resolution art that looks like shit. Multiple Japanese devs made actual Visual Novels that had a way better and more high-budget presentation at the time
Shitty changes to the combat system made everything incredibly trivial and broken instead of challenging, fun, or complex
Horrible and ugly af female protagonist that doesn't fit the game at all
Absolutely fricking terrible fanfic tier story and dialogue changes that completely fricked over and destroyed the entire story, tone, themes, and atmosphere that the original had
Shitty new social links that give you zero interesting insights or actually emotional moments between the characters
ZERO good new content, changes, or improvements to the gameplay or story that would have made the game actually bigger, better, or more interesting
It's the worst out of any updated versions for a game that Atlus has ever done which is really telling something.
It was made by a completely different team at Atlus that didn't create the original Persona 3
P3 is fundamentally about an edgy loner boy growing out of his edgy lonerness and becoming a man who gives enough of a frick about the people he cares, perhaps all mankind at large, to sacrifice himself for them. Not to mention developing the strength of character, the determination necessary to even do such a thing. The FeMC being a melancholic person putting on a facade of happiness would be an interesting idea anywhere else, but in this game she completely shits over the basic premise of the game. This just isn't her story.
Femc.
no walking around and it's all menu clicking was gay
Useless Female mc that no ones gonna play if you’re a heterosexual man. Psp graphics. No Answer epilogue.
none of those are issues
Literally none of those are issues, the only downside to this game is that you can't walk around like on PS2.

The sheer insecurity. Wow.
Because it butchers persona 3 in every aspect to the point that it becomes a different game
Not even the gameplay is the same

Its honestly a great portable game, and a great reason at the time to pick up a PSP again
It's Persona 3. It's a shit game.

fricks me how people think this game is good.
It's not persona 3 you dumb troony
>Strega

why is it good?
I could play it on the PSP. That was good.
Portable is actually persona 4 with tartarus, the gameplay has been heavily touched and now you can't even play the way it played on the ps2
Just pick the worst target + ability for all your party members and you can relive your glory days of p3/fes
Literally the only reason ever given is not being able to see the shitty low budget cutesy 3D models that contrast horribly with the tone of the game. They get filtered by having the maps be more or less like the PSX games.
It's not BAD but it has downgraded or missing content...
You'll want to play this AFTER P3FES....
>missing content
The Answer is complete garbage. It's worse than even the horseshit from P4.
I also don't like the answer but it's still not here along with the cutscenes and weapon selection for the MC

It was pretty amusing how Ganker shat on golden when it came to steam for being a downgrade visually and now people bring up P3P as a decent option
Controllable party members and removal of shitty looking assets in even by psp standards for a more vn approach are both good changes.
Most of your issues are taste not actual problems with the game.
so lads smt nocturne is on sale on steam right now, should i get it?
No just emulate. Its a waste of money and no one cares about Raidou since Dante is better
Persona 3 without the heart, you can play best version for free on a toaster why wouldn't you?
Exactly. Here, there is even a downloadable version that comes directly with the playable party mod intact, for the lazy:
cdromance
/ps2-iso/persona-3-fes-controllable-characters-hack/
ever read the persona 3 wikipedia entry?
P3FES is the one that should have been ported over.
Because it's not a game. It's a bare-bones visual novel that is not even an RPG.
