Back when Atlus Japan was running those live streams to tease Persona 4 Dancing, Arena, Q, and then eventually Persona 5 they would show clips from Persona 3 Portable and not FES. The few with animated cutscenes did get edited in to the videos but I don't recall seeing any 3D animations going on.

Minako has a fun personality, better Social Links (including BFF Junpei) and is voiced by Laura Bailey. QED

Literally all you gotta do is give Minato the replacement s.links and he's just as good. I don't buy any crap about personality bc of a UI element change or like 3 lines of dialogue you can give being different....

Plus the joke-weapon naginata is a hockey stick, so you can pretend Minako is Canadian. No other persona protagonist offers you this capability!

The female mc seems like a more fun character but she also has the worst romance s link in the series.

Isn’t the persona 3 male mc basically that guy from fire emblem 7 who had no emotions and just mirrored whoever was talking to him? That’s definitely the impression I got.

I don't even remember the Ken thing very well at all but for some reason I had the impression that it wasn't like actively romantic on her part, just indulging his crush. I could very well be wrong, though.ImpAtom posted:Meanwhile the Persona 5 protagonist has like four different pedophiles fighting over him and ~mysteriously~ people argue about 'which is the best' instead of calling them all that. southparknice.gif Yeah, it's pretty hypocritical now that I think about it

Plus Maiko gets a crush on the male protagonist too. You can't date her, thankfully, but it's still weird. ...Then again in the female route doesn't her dad try to ask out the female MC? That's still weird as hell. The lesson here is that Persona games are weird about romance between adults and not-adults.

You can sort of argue that P5 has the whole pretense of 'criminals on the outskirts of society' with some of it. I personally disagree with it, but it makes some degree of sense with, like, Takemi; she's already an illegal back-alley doctor because she's been jerked around by authority, I could to a degree understand her giving little concern to when society says 'no' to things. I still think it's gross, though. Basically all the others don't even have an excuse, either. Kawakami's the worst for it.

PQ2 gave her a real personality and that's good yeah but I think people vastly oversell how much actual character she has in P3P proper. And I didn't word it very well but by giving minato those s.links I just meant giving him party member s links not just copy pasting...I agree that her mode ends up better simply because of the s link changes and stuff but I don't think basically any of it has to do with her as a character and I find it weird to see people assert otherwise for so long.

It's cool how the game opens up with a teacher whos abusing his students and also loving them, and that's shown to be bad (it is) and then also lets you gently caress your teacher and its presented as being good (its not)

Imp I've spent a lot of posts in this thread complaining about exactly this esp. w/r/t how the one with you blackmailing your teacher immediately follows the story about how evil the teacher is for blackmailing and abusing his students. The ones in Persona 3 are also very bad

They tried to downplay the romance aspect of Ken's romance but it's still there so they didn't downplay it enough.

My problem is really that, come the gently caress on ZMB, we all loving know the Ken thing is gross, why do you bring it up every single loving time anyone talks about liking Minako as a character? It's really weird and doesn't actually make sense as some consistent principle you hold.

At one point, she straight up tells you that she's going to abuse her position of authority because she's just that into Minato. She ends up not doing that, because very quickly she realises it's a stupid, poo poo plan. But she still confessed to wanting to do it.

And this is why Koromaru is the best Social Link in P3. He is a good dog, and goddamnit he should have been his own character in P4 Arena. No, I don't care that he'd effectively be an Amaterasu clone made by ArcSys, Koromaru does not deserve to be an assist character.
