Ok lads now that the dust has settled we need to answer this very important question

Ok lads now that the dust has settled we need to answer this very important question.

Since everyone is a personababby, p1/2 will not apply since no one here has actually played them.

>Who wins?

My dick

His dick

4 Golden

It's between Phantom Thieves and Investigation Team because these fuckers actually listen to your commands and don't do what they want in a battle

>Since everyone is a personababby, p1/2 will not apply since no one here has actually played them.
Speak for yourself faggot. Elly is my waifu.

Also his dick

is P5 thematically closer to 4 or 3? I hated how 4 was like japanese scooby doo.

>. Elly is my waifu.

his dick.

P5 crew.

They've got more guns.

not really either

5 is the best.

It has its own theme, if you're talking about the tone, it's generally more upbeat than P3, though it addresses some darker issues. It handles its them much better than P4 though, and I'd say it handles it about as well as P3 handles its theme.

I meant tone yeah

It's japanese Kids Next Door with a pinch of Psychonauts and Watch_Dogs 2

It's generally darker but a lot less melodramatic than P3, I'd say. The ending is very upbeat, even moreso than P4.

Subject matter is more serious than 4 but the characters never feel very serious about it themselves aside from maybe the first dungeon. Although they shape up a bit after the fifth dungeon for story reasons. Ending is closer to 4 than 3.

Persona 5 is literally the best in pretty much everyway.

Im 80 hours in P5 and on 5th dungeon, gameplay wise this is the best game in all three, but i like story\atmosphere\tone of P3 much more.
Also P5 music is non-memorable at all, except for 1-2 tracks but even them are not close to BURN MY DREAD at all.

I would have to disagree about the music. P5 has quite a few gems

The P5 crew. Maybe not easily, but it seems like they honestly have the least amount of dead weight, and the largest and most potent arsenal before we get to Persona strength, which is almost impossible to gauge beyond statistics at the start.

P3 crew is boosted by Mitsuru, Akihiko, and Aigis, but is dragged down by Yukari, Koromaru, and Ken. P4 crew is boosted by Kanji and Chie, but is dragged down by Yukiko and Rise. P5 crew is boosted by Yusuke, Makoto, and Ryuji, and only has to carry Haru and Ann's slack. In terms of fighting abilities, P5 crew has a far more ideal arsenal of magic, and a wider spread of potential physical attackers, not to mention Haru literally has Tetrakarn and Makarakarn, meaning many people in P3 and P4 crew would maim themselves attacking P5 crew members, and even with Naoto's instant kills, you're running on gambles AND you might get Makarakarned right back. Not to mention, as said, the entire P5 crew are armed with guns (except for Morgana, who's packing a really powerful Slingshot), and in most cases can simply out-shoot the melee-oriented majority of the other teams.

Looking at all the characters lined up like that really makes me realise how shit the cast of 4 was.

>P4 crew is boosted by Kanji and Chie
>Chie

She was a fucking nerd who liked martial arts movies. She's probably never been in a real fight in her life.

If we're talking "realistically" and not just gameplay wise, I just don't see any group beating Aigis who is literally an android engineered for combat, especially if you add her Ultimax armaments into the mix. Phantom Thieves might have a chance in the Metaverse by virtue of having their own guns.

Door-kun's overpowered as fuck, so SEES.

I love all of them but i wish they stay away from the norms

>and only has to carry Haru and Ann's slack
But they are pretty good, Ann has mind charge and Haru's gun damage with snipe and cripple is just off the charts

If ignoring gameplay and talkling purely from story perspective then Phantom Thieves easily.

Reiji
Reiji always wins baby

I'm talking about raw physical combat ability. The ones not mentioned have average or what I would deem "Sufficient" at best fighting strength for a normal person. Haru is really soft and Ann is an unathletic model. Compare that to Yusuke's artistic combat abilities, Ryuji's trackstar physique, and Makoto's martial arts training, and those two really have a harsh pace to keep up with.

Ken is pretty damn great as a party member

He's a child with a pointy stick.

But wouldn't it be more interesting, if we clash them in an actual persona fight?

Fuuka finds everyone's weaknesses and gives SEES the win.

I'm going to go with the Persona 3 party, solely because they have a killer robot called Aegis, the P5 party could run them over with their cat van but that's not something that would kill Aegis.

Yeah I didn't realize you guys were talking about specific real-life combat ability. Factoring in his persona, he's one of the best party members in the game. Otherwise, yeah.... He's a kid with a pointy-stick. He does get Koromaru as an attack dog in Arena though

In their thief forms they all have superhuman stats anyway so they still have upper hand against P 3-4 teams

>3 teams of persona users fighting each other
It would be a tie between Nyarlathotep and his dick

Fuuka is the worst navigator of the three though.
Rise evolved to a combat persona and can preanalyze.
Futaba consistently does block, heals, and an equal of Heat Riser.

>Since everyone is a personababby, p1/2 will not apply since no one here has actually played them.

Nice and convenient to throw out the actual winner. P1 cast all have multiple personae and could wipe out all the others easily.

...

P3 > P5 > P4

>Rise evolved to a combat persona and can preanalyze.
Only if you currently have something the other enemy is weak to, Fuuka finds the weakness almost instantly and you don't have to cycle through personas to find it.

Fuuka's scanning is also much stronger than Rise's when it comes to finding entities, While Rise needs "hints" to find people Fuuka can find them easily and without even having to enter the TV world.

Hello Fuuka user.

Hi

>dude I'm a hacker and can hack all your problems away and no one can compete with me, no adult is better than me in my field

>literally kills all the tension from the game

Why do people like this slut? I fucking knew it since her character bio dropped she would be such a mary sue in hacking.

The dust has not settled yet

what makes her a slut?

>story
>p4>p5

Literally how can anyone think this

The evidence is clear.

she violates every backdoor

Since persona 4 came out a decade ago, the dust will officially be settled in 2027. As such, there will be no need for such threads until then,

Thank you

So p3 was about death and acceptance of it.
P4 was about the finding the truth.
And P5 was freeing yourself from the bonds of society and taking control of your own life.

P5 felt to me like it hit closer to home cause of how our society is shitty adults or people in general seem to be abundant in society and everyone seem to be apathetic to it. No one challenges them for wrong opinions because you will be singled out and berated by society for having a different opinion than those who have power.

The chains of society run deep in all of modern people and yet keeps us under lock never breaking free and freeing yourself from such burdens.

In the end only you can break free from the chains that bind you so that you can more forward but you must do it with all your might.

Doesn't Door-kun have a broken Fusion Spell/Victory Cry gimmick that does 9999 damage?

Could be wrong but I think P3 > P5 > P4 in terms of powerlevels.

This. P3 music/ tone is still my favourite in the series.

I was hoping that because the game was more stylised than P4 we would get more artistic cut scenes like we did in P3, so was a little upset when we just got shitty anime ones instead.

Rise getting a combat persona was so dumb. Not to mention her persona is only on tier with Fuuka's tier 1 persona when Rises is tier 3. Futaba is better at general support but in terms of scanning enemies she's pretty useless.

Also Fuuka wins best design/ character hands down. You know it to be true.

3 is not at the top. Door-kun doesn't actually solve anything, he just delays the issue. While the other two groups kill gods. And not just defeating persona users who have gods as their personas, but the actual gods themselves.

Makes sense to me

Joker defeated the strongest being by SMT standards.

I've got his dick winning 10/10 times

The incarnation of death itself is pretty much the strongest thing, tho

They've got gimped wildcard and the combat system is a mess, though not as much of a mess as Persona 2's treatment of almighty.

Yeah, Rise is pretty bad

No, they don't defeat it. They say 'pls go' and it stays go for a while. Nyx still exists.

not to mention that everyone in the P1 cast is packing heat

"they say pls go"
I think Having to sacrifice a wildcard is much more than that.

Give Elizabeth some time. She'll fix everything.

P3
Door-kun has Armageddon.

In a fight?

P4 and P5 still have their Wild Cards so it's between them. I think Futaba's Navigation abilities give P5's crew the edge.

Daily reminder Fuuka is a trash girl made for beta's

Generic boring nice girl who has disgusting hair

Demiurge is way stronger than Nyx in SMT, though the P3 Nyx is a bit different.

Her voice is the real problem.

>Koromaru bad
crits for days son

Is Aigis still considered a wild card or was that just temporary?

This.

Door-kun is also the only one of the wildcards capable of using 2 personas at once via fusion spells.

Don't talk shit about Fuukafag's waifu.

>p2:IS > p2:EP >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> p1
P1 was a functional and modern dungeon crawler when it released.
P2 was an archaic, bloated mess when it came out, to the point that it's mindblowing the same company made Soul Hackers 2 years prior.
I can't take anybody that says P2's gameplay is better than P1's seriously, it only furthers my belief the majority of people that talk about P1/2 never actually played them

Enjoy idol slut or literal living in garbage girl who makes le videogame references xD

Give me an address and we'll fight

The only bad thing about P2 is negotiating for cards and combo attacks are op.

Fuuka is not generic, she has many traits that make her unique.
And her hair is short, practical and cute, just like Fuuka herself.

>tfw no qt male navigator
Teddie and Morgana don't count.

I like everything about Fuuka but the hair. Just not my taste user.

Personally, I'm an Ann man myself.

The dungeons are terrible slogs with high encounter rates for boring, slow battles where the best move is always to spam fusion attacks. IS is completely broken and one of the easiest games Atlus has ever made, you can beat it entirely with the handout Personas Philemon gives you and the majority of the story is backloaded, so nearly the entire game is just a struggle to get somewhere interesting. EP has a better cast and better balance, but most of it is a retread of IS. It's no surprise that the P2 duology has consistently sold the worst in the series. The story needs to be hyped up to compensate for how atrocious the gameplay is.

That's alright, different strokes and all.

I really just like Fuuka's hair tho, but all other styles are alright.

This is completely unrelated, but I'm kind of curious: did you get Fuuka as your soulmate in Persona Q and did you answer the questions honestly or did you specifically choose answers you thought would give you Fuuka points?

All things considered: P5>P3>shit>P4

Fuck P4. Scooby-Doo garbage. Shit waifus. Awful characters. Bland story. Inferior aesthetic. Only faggots prefer it.

I haven't played PQ

What a disappointing answer. How can you not have played a game where you can almost marry Fuuka?

>tfw fuukafag's soulmate is not Fuuka

I don't see the point in a 3DS.

Besides, I want to play it in Japanese, and there's no real way for me to get a 日本 copy.
I'll just wait for a chance.

I want it to be a special moment with Fuuka and me

I don't think that's possible.

>people talking about shit navigators
>don't mention that fucking queer Teddie

Fucking Teddie. Fuck Persona 4. Fuck P4fags.

Man if you like this character and you didn't play the game in Japanese you have fucking issues. Her voice is so fucking bad it kills people.

I'm no expert, but the numbers don't lie: it seems pretty clear that the most major power at play here is his dick.

>Fuuka is not generic

Hahaha your ugly waifu has been done to death, she has NOTHING unique besides that ugly hair that will be the only defining feature for her.

Fuuka is a beta attractor

I wish P3 had a Kamoshida who beated the shit out of her for being the generic nice girl and force her to commit suicide

If Teddie counts then so does Mitsuru who is great at first glance but her Social Link ruins her. Huuuur how do I hamburger?

Delete this right now.
Pretty sure she's somewhere on the spectrum, but that only makes her more perfect.

>doesn't like cute awkward Ojou-sama

Fucking queer.

Teddiefags should be literally assaulted in the streets.
