What's with this sudden influx of people shitting on Persona 5?
Will Persona 6 have to come out before we're allowed to like 5 again?

everything!

botw or something

The pacing is shit, the characters aren't that interesting, and the endgame is tedious and boring.

its just nintendo shitposters

>game came out recently
>it's awful
>people talk about it

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Honestly I don't know. Got past the first palace and stopped there. 3 & 4 on the other hand had me hooked up right from the beginning.

Maybe I've just gotten past jrpgs though.

>wrong
Not enough waifu tbqh senpaitachi

nope, the game loses focus after the first dungeon.

Suddenly v hates this game? I loved it when it came out. Haven't played in a little while.

The series works better on older and mobile platforms honestly

Sae wasn't romanceable

Why is Nintendo always blamed?

ironically Sup Forums as a whole is now populated by a large majority of people that hate anime.

Not enough Makoto moments to show how she's canon waifu

>gets rated near perfect scores by almost all reviewers
>so good that even normies are buying it and playing it
Its just a few faggots on v being fags again

every thread was 95% waifu faggotry. It got old fast and a lot of people got bitter.

>P4fags

I still have no idea why people like Makoto. She's annoying, her arc was stupid, and her social link is exceptionally terrible.

Because they can't fuck Sae.

>so good that even normies are buying it and playing it
That's not a good sign.

Makoto is the best support character

Makoto has the best dates

Makoto has direct involvement and stakes in the story outside of her arc

Makoto also contributes to the team with her well-developed plans

why do you want to be a contrarian so bad?
do you think youre fucking special?

Makoto is my wife!

It's just the typical cycle
>game comes out
>lots of people playing and loving it
>2 weeks later
>everyone shits on it
Then the process repeats with whatever new game comes out next week

This game had the guts to do the fake death cliché, not one, but two times (second time with Morgana). I still love the game, but the fake Ryuji death was the lowest point of this game.

It's not about the quality of the game (though Atlus did make the time management considerably easier compare to its predecessors) but the actual of discussing it. Just look at these fucking threads. Persona was better when it was a niche game.

You're forgeting Joker's "death", by far the low point of the game (which is saying something)

oh god

It's a great JRPG but it copies Persona 4 almost beat for beat. I wish it was more original in it's approach.
Also there wasn't any synergy with the group.

strawpoll.me/13500469

Too many characters means not everyone gets developed equally and group dynamics boil down to one or two getting the spotlight (ie. Makoto) with the others being in the background reduced to stereotypes at best.

Also the narrative kind swerves into
>LE EPIC SAVING THE WORLD
territory abruptly in the latter half.

Nothing really

If you don't like Persona 5, and you like Persona 4, the problem isn't Persona 5. The problem is you. Because your tastes objectively suck.

Then maybe don't visit the threads? I can buy a game, enjoy it and literally not discuss it here like I did with Guilty Gear (Because Sup Forums sucks at fighting games and suck capcom cock to care about other fighters), Dark Souls III (Because this site have the most terrible discussions about Souls games) and Trails in the Sky (Because it all boils down to "this game sucks because the texts are too long!")

thats your personal opinion and thats fine but saying persona 5 is a shitty game because you like the old ones better is immature

>it's awful

uhh

>the narrative swerves into save the world

literally every jrpg ever made

I bet you like call of duty too, since you like playing the same game over and over.

Oh you silly user, that doesn't count.

v hates everything. Why are you only now surprised

>so good that even normies are buying it and playing it
But P5 is literally normiebait
This is why P4 is the favorite jrpg of alot of people , another normie bait

Not really.

But I was more criticizing the abrupt change in narrative. At least it wasn't as bad as P4 I guess?

It's four times, actually.

Ryuji, Morgana, Joker, and Sojiro when they find the shop all ruined.

Just wait until Atlus announces the first spin-offs/extentions for P5, everyone will be sucking Persona dick again.

>a lot of people
Nigger, I can guarantee you that a shit ton of normies don't even know what the fuck Persona is. Stop it with your delusions that normies want to "appropriate" your games, it makes you look like a fucking tool, no one gives a shit about the games you like or hate so as long that you're not autistic enough to shove down your opinions down people's throats.

except when its a nintendo game
and its not a bad rating

What went so wrong?

Heh.

You don't need permission to like something, user.

But I want to discuss this game with others? I can't go anywhere else because everywhere else is filled with normalfags who never played the series.

I never said 5 was bad. Nor even mention it's quality outside if its daily life segments.

>What's with this sudden influx of people shitting on Persona 5?
Nintendo just released something so there's influx of their fans on Sup Forums.

>But I want to discuss this game with others?
Then head over to the /vg/ hugbox circlejerk if you really can't handle criticism of the game.

You literally weren't paying attention during cutscenes with fake Igor in the velvet room prior to that event then.

Wait, FAKE Igor? There's two?

Literally (LITERALLY) the #1 worst game I've ever played. Worse than Ride to Hell Retribution and Superman 64 combined. Literally gave me colon cancer the second I put the disk in my PS4, and the next day I found my dog dead in his crate with a calling card on his corpse.

What if I told you you can make a Persona 5 thread without attracting ERPers and autists from /vg/?

Are you retarded? Legit question.

How do I beat this faggot

attack him until he is dead

How do you have trouble with the first boss in the game?

>Makoto has the best dates

That is just false.

The im feature, really its the most annoying thing in the game (i don't like to read messages from my cell in real life, why would i read them in a video game?), the characters exchange great amounts of those and a lot of time is talking about things they already said or happened and they will take about it at a later time.

>BTFO

Because I'm a shitter and this is my first persona game

What difficultly are you playing on? 5 is one of the easiest Persona games.

Level Morgana until he has Media. It makes the fight very trivial. Attack the chalice, send Ryuuji to get his crown on Phase 2 of the fight and wail at him until he's dead while healing your party with Media.

If you're playing on hard, he's almost unbeatable if you don't have media on morgana.

Fuse Obariyon, he resists Physical (pic related)
He also has Sukunda, which will reduce Kamoshida's accuracy and raise your staying power.

Your mother botched the abortion.

>Will Persona 6 have to come out before we're allowed to like 5 again?

By that logic, people will like persona 4 but it's still shit.

Maybe instead of focusing on the negative, you should ask yourself what went right?

>everyone wants a new Persona game
>gets an actual one that is not a spinoff
>WHAT THE FUCK WHY ISNT IT LIKE (insert other game here)

Just replace anime with video games and there you have it.

Are you? Legit question.

Sorry you don't enjoy one of the greatest games of all time OP

Why are people so afraid of a new fanbase anyway ?
Isn't it great if more people come to be aware of the quality of Atlus games ?

Why the fuck isn't it like Dark Souls????

So you are. Thanks for confirming.

Why are you here?
Play the fucking game.

The larger a fanbase gets, the higher chance it becomes cancerous. Luckily persona isn't nearly that big and probably will never be, but expect shitposting for next 4-6 months and then it will eventually fade

>i have to wait 3 more years for a console mainline SMT game

I still really like this art.

Only one thing went wrong: At the very beggining, your told there is a traitor amonst you. Now, consider the fact that SOMEBODY who joins later does not really appear in media and group photos, GEE I WONDER WHO IT COULD BE?!
Never mind when he does join, his voice sounds evil in battle and he wears white.

I think it's been established that the game doesn't even hide who the traitor is because the twist wasn't knowing who it was but knowing that you and your buddies know. It's reached a point that anime cliches have gotten so bad and predictable that doing the most obvious thing counts as a twist.

nothing faggot

Nothing, it is better than Persona 4.

personafag how mad r u bro??

Does anyone have the webm of Haru standing there for a few seconds and then she fluffs her hair? I didn't save it, and it's impossible to find.

Also no replies on /r/

Persona 5 did not operate as an actual jrpg. It was just a pressing x simulator after hours of compendium.

I think its a massive disappointment given the time between 4 and 5 and the numerous delays it got.

I bought a new, 60gb PS3 back in the day for this and I ended up playing it on my PS4 it took so long to come out in the west.

If 6 takes more than 2 years to release it will sour my feelings for 5 even more.

People are over exaggerating their disdain for P5
It had potential to be better and fell short in some areas, but is still an overall great game
The "hate" is people associating being slightly disappointed with completely hating it

get used to it, this is Sup Forums after all.

my research shows there is only one way to catch an ace defective

Because it has the worst fanbase

i can really never get them, they still have the mainline SMT games.

You mean an Ace defective. Looks delicious though.

Nothing went wrong, it's great. Has its flaws like any other game.

stay mad nintenbro
