Rrquinta Writes: Continuing our series of "25 Things About Me" for video game characters - Here's from Atlus's award-winning Persona series, Igor's "25 Things About Me":
1. 8 inches. This is the length of my nose.
2. In the past, I used a bone phone for all my personae summoning. However, my first assistant, Elizabeth (and her successor, Margaret), replaced that. I consider them an improvement, don't you?
3. If you don't currently have an attractive personal assistant, I highly recommend it. They do most of your work, and you can sit back and enjoy yourself.
4. Do not ask about Philemon; he's mysterious for a reason (and my boss).
5. My favorite creatures are humans and butterflies. Humans for all the mysteries they hold, and butterflies for what they symbolize...
The studio was on the verge of collapse when Persona 3 came out, and things were looking quite grim for Atlus. Regardless, many decisions made in the game paid off and became a staggering success.
Years ago, I was emulating the game on my laptop and the old thing died when I was about to get to the final boss. I'm more than happy to buy this remake when it comes out so I can finish it!
At the time I was immersed in SMT Nocturne and later DDS. I did not realize at all how important Persona would become for me years later.
Persona 3 FES was the first one that I played in the series. Looking forward to the remake.
Half-Glass Gaming: "Often considered one of the darker entries in Atlus' Persona series, Persona 3 definitely has a sinister vibe to it, and it leans into horror more than you might realize."
Even though Persona 4 and 5 are monumental leaps over Persona 3, a crucial aspect has been lost in the transition.
That's a good point I didn't really think of but it lends to the narrative a lot more than P5 for sure. I also enjoy how much more streamlined the game is and how it doesn't have a 13 hour tutorial.
Some of these are really funny :p.
