News VI: Fires of Rumorcon

Foddy voicing that guy at the end (sure sounds like him, anyway!), good stuff.

Can’t play the Personas 'cause they’re too graphically flashy like most RPGs but that trailer sure got me looking up 3’s OST. ^ _^ ( Persona 3 (+ Fes & Portable) Original Soundtracks (2006, 2007, 2009) - YouTube )

I hope they keep the fucked up vibe of P3 (which was a lot more in line with mainline megaten games than it gets credit for), and don’t backpaddle into the vibe of P5

(I even like P4 and basically like P5, it’s just that P3 has far and away the most interesting writing and even it’s extra anime vibes fit in with it. That said the desperate race against time vibe that only P3 really nails is probably not going to be part of it since it’ll be a lot easier and not force you to get weird with it like OG P3 did)

The trailer seems to be almost going out of its way to show us that the game’s fundamentally the same, so I’m really kinda hoping they didn’t fuck around under the hood too much and this is mostly a glow up (I know they will, of course, be making fusion a lot more ‘user-friendly’ etc., which I supose I can accept). I recognized pretty much everything in the trailer. They even have a high-floor Tartarus setting and it looks like the same block with the same name. Fingers crossed.

Honestly I think I like the look of that Persona 5 tactics game

Having finished P5R recently, all this new Persona content is making me feel like I just gorged myself and now I’m being invited to a buffet.

Also I find it kind of funny that Persona 5 has essentially become it’s own franchise. How many layers deep do SMT spin offs go? Are we going to see a P5T series that gets 5 entries deep and spawns it’s own sub-sub-sub-sub series called P5T5?

wait, isn’t persona technically a megaten sub-series and not a SMT spinoff? :thinking:

Can’t wait for them to release some game called Persona 5 Pet Salon that people misinterpret the abbreviation as PSPS and start saying things like “I want to play some psspss”
all cats in the vicinity immediately look in their direction

New screenshots on the Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon News page. Looks like it’s hinting we might end up with flight characteristics closer to the original games than what Armored Core 5 and Verdict Day had.
