[Updating] Persona Live Stream Teases Persona 5 Or More Persona 4, Persona Insanity Ensues

GR - Atlus and the Persona development team are teasing the next entry in the series with a 72 hour livestream broadcast that's dropped hints in unique ways as to where the franchise is headed next.

Currently, Japanese video site Nico Nico is displaying the screen you see above and appropriately fading in Living With Determination as well as lots of other Persona tracks as we wait for the next announcement, but this rather boring livestream actually has an incredible hook for fans.

Hope P5 is as good as P4.

Want to see this on both PS3 and PS4 at least

[dbjj12088]

Same. I'm not as excited about returning cast members though. Keeping the experience fresh helped P4 since I played it and P3P back to back.

[Ranma1]

I dont even care if it has PS2 level graphics so long as it has same excellent gameplay and story as PS4.

Though I would prefer graphics like tales of vesperia or ni no kuni (cell shahded i think its called).

Cause persona is an anime type game

[Baka-akaB]

Nah there is a reason catherine was made . it would probably have a similar yet improved look

[dbjj12088]

True. The 3D graphics could be a bit more vibrant but the character art pops. I hope for Vita release.

[Ranma1]

I wonder if their will be a secret Sonic the Hedgehog card/persona in the game, now that Sega bought them.

:)

[ftwrthtx]

The Vita could use another title

[dbjj12088]

I don't care what platform this game comes out, I must play it.

[Ranma1]

I dont care much about platform either. The more who get to play it the better.

Persona games always have epic stories in the same level as FF4-FF10

[Blastoise]

Too much teasing

It's time for some pleasing.

*fingers crossed for PS3 or Vita*

[yuuki]

really?
what kind of headline is this, you need a map to read it....
But let us hope it is really p5

[izumo_lee]

I'm as excited for this as i was when i got the PS4!

Whether it is a new numbered game in the series or a continuation of Persona 4 it will be a memorable day this coming Sunday.

Please Atlus don't disappoint me.

>Own A PS Vita
>Don't own P4G.
Convince me to get it.

EDIT: This got dislikes? WTF?

[Baka-akaB]

Maybe they dont feel like they should be convincing you . Watch a gameplay feed , or read a review if you're into that

[xSHADOWx]

Fine sorry.
Jeez.

[Baka-akaB]

Hey i'm not criticizing , just givin an interpretation on those disagrees

[dbjj12088]

I'll convince you.

First, Persona 4's structure of playing one day at a time, is perfect for a portable games platform. You can play as little or as much as you want. The Vita's ability to suspend games at will helps this, even though it's not like it's hard to find a save spot in the game. Basically you can pick up and spend hours in a dungeon, or just push the story forward by one day while you're waiting for the train.

Second, the story and cast of characters become so endearing over the course of the game. Each character gets "their moment" thanks to the Social Link system so the world and people in it feel really believable.

Third, it's got a great message, tons of personality, and it's actually a very uplifting experience from the "wow, I just read an incredible book" perspective. Being sorta-visual novel-esque, this makes sense since you're investing time into learning everything you can, solving the mystery, battling etc.

Fourth, all the systems modernize classic JRPG elements. You have to choose the right attacks to continue your turn in battle. Choose the right attacks and you'll never even get hit. Choose the wrong attacks and the battle takes longer. Makes you learn the system and become a better battler.

Fifth, the music is fantastic. tons of different emotions presented with twists on simple melodies. Shoji Meguro is one of the few composers I have on my iPod, but he earned the spot with P4G.

I could go on, but just buy the damn game and enjoy!

[xSHADOWx]

Really appreciate the reply!
People don't seem to understand gameplay or a journalist review just doesn't always cut it for some.

I wanted an ordinary, general consumer to answer that, all I got was 11 disagrees. :/

Thanks again.

I'll know not to post something like that here again...

(PS. Will buy it now :p)

[Protagonist]

@xSHADOWx

Persona 4: Golden is among the best no matter console or genre. Just get it.

[Gamesgbkiller]

Just give me a JRPG game at least Atlus.

Fingers crossed.

[dbjj12088]

P4G wasn't JRPG enough? Fingers crossed here for an awesome, hard core, 100+ hour game too.

[Whxian]

he probably means, dont pull a square enix and turn the game into an action game, or like with catherine, a puzzle game (catherine wasnt bad, but i do prefer persona style)

[Protagonist]

Hope it is a game and that we wont have to wait for localization.

[muttsurini]

Hope that the voice acting, music and characters are superb like on the p4

[vergilxx3]

As long as its forPs Vita any pesona is fine
