The Shin Megami Tensei/Persona Thread

No content added in FES, or Portable will be in the remake. Yes, that includes the female protagonist.

What a joke. InB4 they release a version a year, or so from now called Persona 3 Reload Royal, or whatever that actually includes all that shit.
They would have had me if they kept at least the FES content but youre not even going that far? Aigis had her whole social link made avaliable in the FES release so if theyre correct, then you cant actually form a bond with arguably the true main girl and mascot of the game.
 
Bummer about P3 missing tons of content and the new voice actors. I never completed FES so it would have been great to have that content in Reloaded. I did finish P3P back when I used to take the bus, it's alright but I don't really care if it's content is cut. P3P works better as it's own thing if you ask me.

ReFantazio's development must have been restarted right? The older artwork doesn't seem to match the vibe they are going for now. Plus I think I remember them saying the development was done a few years ago but I could be wrong.
 
4G >>>> 5R >>>> 3FES only because The Answer was meh.

A female lead for p6 would be nice. It worked for Velvet Crowe and Estelle Bright.

Oh wait it's ATLUS who am I kidding. Interestingly Michelle Ruff was on a podcast recently talking about how she doesn't get main parts anymore. Its actually depressing.

I understand your disappointment for lacking of female, but the main issue with Persona game from 3 is that romance option.

The game actually needs decent male characters for female protagonist, but at the same time they can't be cooler than the male protagonist. Only Persona 3 works because more male companions and male protagonist route doesn't have social link with them. Atlus for their fault, they at least only do straight romance otherwise the game would attract more annoying faggy fandoms.

I think the most jarring thing about the recast is it's made up of literal whos.
It's pretty much current days EN anime or video game voice acting industry, lots of whoever, they may get popular on social media thanks to gacha (mostly Genshin) or trendy anime/video game.
So you might be surprised they have more roles than you thought in some cases.
Also as usual current days casting choice with appropriated diversity requirement.

P3 new cast.png
Justine Lee is an actual woman though, despite the "She/they" pronoun on twitter (Aiden type), so that is probably still okay for now.

Who actually plays JRPGs with the English dub?
Normies, the unironic "I hate weebs" weebs on twitter - reddit or you could say zoomer weebs.

Your usual cast of bigger name actors probably costs too much money now and recorded their dialogue for P3 nearly two decades ago. They likely want people that sound kind of younger.

It's also not like the origional cast was this huge squad of proven talent - a lot of them are still obscure even to this day.

Liam O'Brien is swimming in the Critical Role cash now and his rates have to have skyrocketed since 2005. Vic is a touchy subject and everyone else is just kind of doing bit parts around town.
 
This has been floating around Twitter recently, and its got people up in arms and and swearing off buying P3. For those who don't know, the account in the picture belongs to a troon is one of those "localizers" who likes to censor and rewrite the dialogue, and he is very infamous for it on Twitter, as he is quite vocal. Apparently, this person openly complained about the last Persona release, actually quit Sega before and went on to grandstand about it on Twitter, yet Sega/Atlus has apparently hired them to work on P3R as the chief localization engineer.
 
This is literally almost the same exact bullshit 4Kids used to do back in the day, except much worse

Awesome, wait for the super champion edition AND the fan translation that you can only find in dodgy sites because nexus mods are faggots. Getting better and better. Your fem main character will be the main charactet being trans, love it.
 
"LOL, you people are just manchud babies for expecting a game to be complete, just be happy the remake exists, pleb."

I could understand this attitude if what we were getting was a fan made mod. Hell, that would be an impressive project.

I do not understand why I should shell out more money for a prettier version of a game I can already buy, but with less story content than the version they made for the fucking PSP.

on second thought.....maybe Skies of Arcadia is better off dead.
 
Wait....Dawn Bennett isn't she from the funi Texas group? I noticed JMT's cumdump is in recent stuff as well like the new Fire Emblem. David Matranga too and Monica Rial. And 🤮 Daman ***ls too.

Are the Texas VA's actually moving to LA because...lol. Good luck being able to afford rent. There's a reason Chris Patton moved back to Houston (and he's the most talented of them all)
 
It's really funny that the absolute clusterfuck of news about the P3 remake completely overshadowed Metaphor: Re Fantazio AKA Project Re:Fantasy, not like i blame anyone since the game looks like Persona: Isekai edition, with Social links, social stats, a calendar, personas and the velvet room, a crappy mascot character, the same "epic stylish" UI as P5, pressing a button for an specific action in combat instead of having a menu you can pick for, etc. They seem to be also ripping off mechanics from SMT like Press turn and magnetite, which might mean that the game may be fun to play at least, but it still sucks how the game was advertised as "not persona or smt" and its just persona with a medieval fantasy coat of paint and SMT accessories.
 
I'm cautiously optimistic after watching the Tactica trailer. It's no Devil Summoner III but looks servicable enough to scratch that SRPG-with-SMT-demons itch.

Also the very first time i heard english VA's in a SMT/Persona game, unsurprisingly terrible.

Between this, the troon VA and half the cast suddenly becoming random blacks. It's not looking good.
I'm hoping someone makes a mod to restore the original English voice actors.

The missing content really doesn't bother me too much, I just want my vidya untouched by troon influence.

Much as I've wanted this remake, I'm kinda happy Xbox is getting this first so I can see what kind of dumpster fire I'm getting into.

I'm not as bothered by the FES or Portable content being missing, but that's just because Modern Vidya sucks and has convinced me to expect only the bare minimum for competence.

Lulcalizers deserve no respect, and I repeat that it'll be a good day when companies realize it'd probably be cheaper to have some intern just throw the script through Google Translate or ChatGPT or something equally retarded. Would probably still be better than whatever the Troon Brigade churns out.
