>If his Confidant wasn't retarded Explain It seemed pretty much exactly like a 'deal' that was completely onesided up until he remade it at the very end to me
Hello /pg/! Just a friendly reminder to have lots of good discussions today about Persona. Remember to be careful and practice proper etiquette with online communication. One small error and someone could think that you’re being rude! So remember to be polite and we can all have a nice healthy discussion.
It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is that this is the dullest franchise in the history of game franchises. Seriously each game following a mute protagonist and his pals from various fictional highschools as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its anime humor and ineffective use of social management gameplay, all to make serious scenes hard to take seriously, to make action seem inert.
Perhaps the die was cast when Atlus vetoed the idea of someone talented directing the series; they made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody, just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for their Shin Megami Tensei series. The Persona series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-Final Fantasy series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.
>a-at least the older games were good though "No!" The writing is dreadful; the games were terrible. As I played, I noticed the player was forced into encounters every few seconds. Not only that, but one of the writers made one of the characters a self insert who would hit on every woman in the games.
I began marking on the back of an envelope every time something like this happened. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several hundred times. I was incredulous. Tadashi's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that he has no other style of writing and directing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Persona 2: Eternal Punishment by the same Steven Seagal. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these virgins are playing Persona 2 at 22-24, then when they get older they will go on to shoot schools." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you play "Persona" you are, in fact, trained to shoot up schools.
/pg/ doesn't understand any of the deals symbolism, only friendship and anime romance

Retarded in the sense of it not being consistent at all with the rest of the Confidants. It ranks up at awkward times, it begins with the promise of you learning to make deductions but the game never does anything about it, and it doesn't really feel like you're growing closer to Akechi at all. It felt like they ran out of time to think of an interesting route for Akechi so they just added an automatic Confidant because he's plot relevant.
Is that what groojos actually think? That literally anyone who is not a fan of Akechi is antigroo? That can't be right. Surely even /pg/ is not that retarded.

I unironically like her dancing. I don't know how I describe it, unique? Anyways I'm digging it.
Yes, were you not paying attention to the narrator?

>Mystic thinks that this is monumental proof that p3 is going to get a remake.
I want Atlus to fuck around and announce p2HD just so I can hear millions of p3fags dreams shatter enough to make a demon out of the collective unconscious.
