I gotta say by far the best aspect of this game is how it blends accessibility with depth. The autocombo aspect gives everyone kind of a starting point and on top of that all specials are done with quarter-circles with supers being double quarter circles. While I myself am fairly well versed in fighting games myself it was nice to see my friends basically pick a character they like and not be restricted by things like motions and basic combos. This game is utterly fantastic in that regard.

The game looks really fun! But i dont think it’s very consistent with the story. Since in the added ending for P4G they basically say that Yuu doesnt come back until the next summer. And all the characters get updated character designs. Other than that, the game looks really fun, and it’s probably going to be the next game i get! I wish they wouldve added the P3 MC though. you’re review was great too!

In terms of plot I thought that Persona 4 was better but in terms of how the story was executed it (mostly) felt like Persona 3 was executed.

Teddie must die! If they don’t use Koromaru in this somehow they can stand to drop Teddie from the next game.

Naoto is considered low-tier, then? Meh, I’ll keep playing her anyway. Catching people with Mudoon is one of the most satisfying feelings I’ve had in a fighting game.

Fighting games are not my strength and my wrists would agree but I want to get this game, to see these characters continue their arcs beyond their main adventure, how the Persona 3 characters fit to in this and I also want see what the game will do with the umm bringing back a certain someone’s soul plot.

Oh man, P3P does Shinjiro JUSTICE. Not even kidding. As a girl you really get to connect to the main team allot more than the original. (Though Ken is still annoying and his social link can get more than a little creepy)

Also, didn’t you pay attention? You CAN’T beat Nyx, you didn’t win against Nyx Avatar, you lost, it still stood, it stills summoned Nyx. You can’t beat Nyx either, you seal away the desire for death to make Nyx go away. You don’t win by kicking ass. That fails, Ryoji wasn’t lying when he said you can’t win.

You should re-read some stuff on this site that Austin I believe wrote for P3, especially on Death.

Speaking of themes, I do like how this game’s story mode does feel like a extension to P4 story wise and character growth wise. Like the review says its nothing like the RPGs, but I’m glad it still continues each character’s story.
