Persona 3

Awesome game, that.

But.... I imagine something that would be MORE than a little awkward.

What if some [sorta] innocent couple are just doing couple-y things one night when at midnight one of them turns into a coffin but the other one remains conscious?

That would be awkward and creepy as hell.

Thoughts on this awesomely weird game?

I love you. . .

Wait, that's not what I was going to say.
Awesome fusion of Jrpg and Dating sim elements.
I'll finish passing judgment when I can play a few more Shin Megami Tensai games.

this game is so long

I find it kind of odd that when you do a little more role-playing in this game than several others people say it's not a true RPG. But then again, these are megaten purists throwing themselves over Innocent Sin for the sole reason of Hitler and gay romance so....

heh · #5

persona pretty much owns despite being anime as ****

Sim Kid · #6

^Nothing wrong with being anime if it's done well. You can say the exact same thing about western stuff and realism.

The monorail battle was pretty awesome, if only because it was fought on a monorail.

The boss could've been harder, though. I finished with like half the time left over.

Operation Babe Hunt = win.

"western stuff" is also a much bigger category then anime, what are you talking about

I purposely drag out that boss battle.

My only (yet very major) complaint is the freaking Tartarus.

Seriously. Like the history, mystery and overall CREEPINESS of the dungeon are really cool, but...

Come on. It's like a freaking Tales of Legendia dungeon, except worse, longer, with more grinding, and with somewhat of a time limit (with the full moons and all).

It's the same thing over and over again, just wandering aimlessly and killing things. Arrghhh worst dungeon ever.

The game's still hella fun. Now if only Mitsuru would stop trying Marin Karin on the freaking bosses (it actually worked on one of the mini-bosses once, though).

Oh, and love hotel full moon operation ftw.

Lessee....Dare I risk pointing out trends that "Western stuff" has? I'm still waiting for a Western RPG to try ripping off D20 Urban Arcana instead of trying to rip off D&D and set it in Ye Olde Western Europe or Sci-Fi.

HOLY****PLOTTWIST.

Major spoiler:

[spoiler]Shinji should've just let Ken die. He was an annoying little emo, anyway. :{/ [/spoiler]

[spoiler]But then Shinji wouldn't have been the manly bastard we love and SEES would have fallen apart.[/spoiler]

Apollo the Just · #15

[spoiler]Yeah, okay... I'm just bitter that I spent like 100,000 yen on Shinji's armor and weaponry because I was gonna use him for the boss, and then he goes and dies. WTF MATE.[/spoiler]

Oh, and huge epic plot twist has occured. I did NOT see that coming, I'll tell you that much.

I really need to play more. No seriously just so I know who you guys are even talking about. I don't know who that guy even is. But I should beat Okami for my wii first before going off to another game. But if I finish the game I wills be sad face.

Apollo the Just · #17

That's why you DON'T READ SPOILERS UNTIL YOU PLAY A GAME. Because then when it happens you're like 'oh, yeah... uh... whatever' and not like 'OMGWTFBBQ'.

Apollo the Just · #18

Guess what? I just beated t3h gamez.

[spoiler]and I killed Death.[/spoiler]

I have a question-- is the Answer worth playing at all, or is the Journey the only good part?

Rainbow Dash · #19

well why wouldn't you play it

also I managed to get a lot further over my vacation, i'm in the second term

Apollo the Just · #20

Well my sister said she doesn't think it's worth playing because you play as Aigis rather than random blue emohair dude; and she said it wasn't as fun.

I'll probably end up playing it anyway, just not right now.
