I did the same, played BOTW then Persona 5 I guess you didn't play BOTW because it is much better. Anyways, it sold more than enough to be a success. Game goes a bit downhill but I enjoyed it overall. It is a bit too long and the RNG fucked me over a couple of times, but I guess it is pretty decent. 7 or 8/10.
Ethan Brown
Opinions, user. P5 and BotW are two totally different games.
I can't choose between the two, personally.
Ryan White
Someone ban him please
Thomas Young
It's been years since I felt the way I did when playing Persona 5 the first time. Felt like a familiar friend taking you to new polished heights for a series. Don't think I felt that way since FF7 or Mario64.
Kayden Ortiz
>It is a bit too long so you hate rpgs then
Lincoln Ramirez
If you are still browsing this thread you are legitimately retarded and asking to be spoiled OP
Xavier Reyes
I went P5 into BotW. P5 shits on it.
Juan Allen
>still playing Atlus games Why don't you fuck off to Sup Forums or reddit already.
Blake Baker
Adachi being the killer of Persona 4 is practically Darth Vader is Luke's father tier here on Sup Forums newfag
Jaxon Phillips
Its almost like people have different opinions, I played both and I prefer Persona 5, neither are my goty but they are both good.
Gavin Martin
no, i like rpgs. I just dont like sitting around and watching shitty anime dialogue for hours on end.
Eli Hernandez
I dunno man. If you're not actually memeing (prolly are) going out into hyrule field the first time just felt like going out into it in OoT on repeat. I literally sighed when I saw all the shit they were gonna make me do; the sights they were gonna make me see all over gain like Death Mountain.
And then they turn me loose and it's everything I didn't care for in Skyrim. Resist potions also felt like busy work, and the surprise world boss rock thing felt like Dragon's Dogma in a bad way.
Just didn't strike a cord with me. Maybe because I've been playing Zelda since NES. Persona was really good about sidestepping the weaknesses and playing to the strengths hardcore. Made it feel fresh and inviting. It's my GOTY by far for now.
Easton Phillips
Glad you're enjoying it, I feel the same. NOW GET THE FUCK OUT BEFORE YOU GOT SPOILED FUCKER
Anthony Perry
This, some a lot of the scenes really could have been edited down more. A lot of it felt pretty redundant at times.
Robert Richardson
I kind of wonder why you'd play an jRPG then.
Jeremiah Kelly
Fastest selling Persona game yet
Adrian Bell
It has some serious ups and downs All the heists feel great but the lead-up to them are questionable, and the game has serious pacing issues Soundtrack's the best in the series though and there's plenty of feel-good moments
Charles Morales
P5 IS SO FUCKING OVERRATED HOLY SHIT!!!!!

Sebastian Nguyen
Kamoshida, madarame, okumura, and shido did nothing wrong.
Luke Harris
Persona 5 is the first game in a while that I both couldn't help but get hyped for and didn't leave me disappointed
Nathaniel Reyes
Back the fuck off, kids. He got lost on his way to Tinder.
Isaac Johnson
Hey, did you know they changed Igor's voice in this game? Doesn't fit at all.
Eli Allen
it's all downhill from there
Leo Barnes

Daniel Morgan
More like Grindr
Julian Stewart
I could actually argue that Oomura and Shido didn't do much worse than your typical corporate head or politician,
Kamoshida was a literal psychopath though. His dialogue towards the player when you give him a cheeky reaponse in the school hallway especially, actually made me pause for a second with just how outright fucking spiteful the heartless pedophilic, abusive, delusional bastard was.
Kano shirt needed to be put on medication a long, long time ago.
Elijah Wilson
The only real sketchy one was Kaneshiro threatening you with a bullshit selfie.
Even Madarame's alibi wasn't too unbelievable. Bad press during good press doesn't help anyone but the POTUS.
Jeremiah Gomez
>gets hit on by sluts to further their own agendas. >everyone loses their shit for no reason. Other than him slaying pussy.
Lincoln Gutierrez
Felt the same for about 30 hours, then realized it wasn't going to get any better.
Kamoshida and arguably Madarame are the only good parts of the game. There are other good dungeons and story segments (at least one more) but it had already wored off by that point.
I miss those smaller scale, intimate moments before the phantom thieves blew out of proportion.

doesn't even matter. you already got the game.
Connor Hughes

Futaba's dungeon was pretty personal and intimate, all things considering.
Mason Rodriguez
>getting this mad when nobody gives a shit about BOTW now that it's lost it's flavor. That switch is a good buy though just need them games!
Jackson Diaz
I don't know that paying to have people killed can be written off as typical
Gavin Hughes
It's pretty typical just ask Hillary clinton.
Daniel Phillips
Probably more than you'd think it is. Money and power can get a lot done without the general public ever being none the wiser.
Nicholas Jackson
Don't bother. You can get them for free on emulator in like 6 more mos. jej
Noah Stewart
Maybe you should chill.
Chase Campbell
Honestly I disliked the second and third palace plots so much that its been hard for me to pick the game up again. The main quest characters are shockingly stupid and the dialogue scenes are really repetitive.
Carter Long
It had a proper story arc. Would've been everything the nintendies accuse it of being if it stayed low key thug plot the whole way through.
Samuel Allen
Am I wrong though? I never see it as a complaint. They have to introduce you to Sojiro, then ryuji anne morgana then the app how to travel the dungeon how to fight how to go to sleep how to gather the team how to stealth and how to recruit personas before the game finally let's you explore the first dungeon on your own.
Sebastian Wood
That's kinda how RPGs role though. If you legit think the typical "molasses uphill in the snow" pacing of the first act is a negative, I dunno what to tell you.
Julian Edwards
Persona 5 was going to be my GotY, but then I somehow managed to get a PS4 and played NieR: Automata.
If the year can keep pumping out good titles then I'll be a happy man. Wish I could play BotW so I could see what all the hype is about. I'm fairly sure it's going to be the title that snags all the awards for GotY.
Gavin Hughes
It's p5. Not megami tensei 1 fuck newfriends they ruined the tensei games.
Juan Lopez
Yeah, you're pretty wrong. It's a narrative driven jRPG, and you're expecting it to play like AAA shooter campaign.
Did you expect BOTW to hotdrop link in hyrule castle shitting bomb arrows everywhere, too?
Josiah James
>no man you don't get it, it's SUPPOSE to be bad
oh okay. That makes sense.
Ethan Morales
this is why i avoided Sup Forums until i beat the game
Lucas Garcia
To be fair they think all RPGs have mandatory hour intros before you get to do stuff. Personally I thought P5 was a step up from P4's shitty intro, but P2 and P3 managed to get the ball rolling far earlier.
Isaiah Reed
That's not what I said, but just keep sweeping me under the rug...
Gabriel Lewis
It's really not. That was hardly a twist at all.
Colton White
>le strawman nice try, kid
Carson Martinez
The guy you quote presented an actual argumentation, why did you give them a strawman?
Sebastian Scott
In P4G it could be as a first-timer. Getting buddy buddy with the local neighborhood serial killer before you know he is one is a great set up for a twist. It's too bad he didn't have an S Link in the original.
Dylan Harris
A simple message could come up at the start of the game: "Is this your first persona game? Yes or No"
I know games have to pretend the player is an idiot but we live in a post BotW world now. It was so annoying when 100 hours into P5 they had to explain a simple puzzle in the last dungeon like 5 times in case the player got confused or didn't understand the concept of light up panels. BotW respects the player's intelligence a lot.
Thomas Murphy
They explain it once, and a brief quip about the tile limit mechanic in the later ones. You just had dialog fatigue after 100+ hours. Anyone experiences that in any game for various reasons. I had the same issue with BOTW combat and gadgets being old and done to death by the time I reached the castle.
Sebastian Lewis

Aaron Walker
I hope in P 5 platinum or whatever we get to know him better. I wanna know why his rebellious self is partly some kind of Star Wars geek.
Nolan Richardson
In atlus defend, even after treating player like a fucking baby (which actually not) few anons of Sup Forums still doesn't understand what's going on while they explain the things multiple times.
Retard exist, you can't blame them. Blame Sup Forums for being retard.
Owen Reyes
I don't think we're actually getting a platinum unless Atlus hires a B-team. The P5 team has moved on to Project Re Fantasy. Which quite honestly, sounds like a fucking masterpiece in making: youtube.com/watch?v=AqA9vxhqMvE
>Everybody's just copying Tolkien. We want to do Fantasy differently Usher in a new era, crazy harem game man.
Jack Butler
I like it, but saying it's "The Best" is pushing it. Might consider it if it had more than one fucking battle theme
Sebastian Turner
>Sup Forums constantly argues whether BOTW or P5 is the GOTY >meanwhile the GOTY Awards show at the end of the year won't even have P5 nominated and BOTW will be the only Japanese game nominee among a bunch of shitty Western shooters >and the shooter will probably win
Grayson Brooks
Had no idea, that's great to hear actually. I assumed Atlus couldn't resist some extra Persona bucks after how well 5 sold. If i's anywhere as good as 5 I'm looking forward to it.
>haremgame man I, uh, have actually never made a harem in Persona yet. I'm too much of a pussy to even cheat on on a fictional girl soIve always stuck with one waifu per playthrough.
Blake Johnson
Saw IGN and expected this to be a shit video, but Hashino just went up a notch in my book. Fucker knows good game design inside and out, clearly.
Luis Diaz
midboss theme is the shit
Mason Morris
Felt the same, story felt dragged on at some points and no moment in the game(story or gameplay-wise) comes close to the peak it got at the start with Kamoshida.
Aiden Hill
Judges will probably be hung up over BOTW and Odyssey since both were jerry-rigged for the award but they came out on the same year. Persona 5 is a 10/10 game but its not as popular as Zelda or Mario so it'll get sweeped aside.
Isaiah Kelly
Did any shooters come out this year remotely worthy? All I can think of is PREY, and that was meh.
Matthew Morris
Sounds like it's going to be SAO garbage, not getting my hopes up.
Liam Baker
>Nocturne OST >best
DDS and SMT IV are the real shit
Jeremiah Murphy
Too bad P5 is a JRPG, so it's shit by definition.
Oliver Lewis
Pfft, nothing comes close to beating PIGGGYTROOON
Evan Collins
>SAO garbage He said the team's moving away from both eastern and western tropes. SAO is garbage because it's literal eastern trope pandering.
Tyler Johnson
>SMTIV
user, I just ate and I really don't feel like puking
Carson Taylor
As a guy who hate turnbased jrpg, me and few of my friends would agree to you if I haven't play Persona 5. You should try it.
Brandon Perez
Just puke out the garbage you just eat user
Jeremiah Carter
t. gay
Adrian Brown
That guy looks like he ran out of fucks decades ago.
Aiden Martin
P5 blows its load at the first dungeon. The rest is a limp wank that feels kind of good but nothing happens.
Dylan Perry
>muh Kamoshida Found it to be the most boring dungeon, personally.
Jacob Sanchez
>you can put Link in cute clothes >Akira gets attacked by gay pedo stereotypes that want to put him in cute clothes
>Link can hang out with flamboyantly gay characters peacefully >Akira picking flirty options with male characters gives you "no homo, bro" responses
Truly provokes one's thoughts.
Brody Jackson
Still not getting my hopes up until I see what they come up with, I'd love to see them break tropes and make a bettee game but I know better than to trust word alone.
Luke Perry
