I take some offense to that. The guys at Atlus seem like they really put work into this and I am an avid BlazBlue fan, so I've been sold a while ago. To each his own though.

Sadly I'm european, so the game isn't out for another month. That being said, I'm really looking forward to it. It looks like a pretty fun fighting game with an actually reasonable learning curve and some really cool mechanics. Might be a good game to play to out my new Qanba BigBen stick :D

I'm not familiar with the Persona-series, though. After watching the stream someone linked earlier, I think I'll try out Mitsuru first, possibly Kanji.

Cause niche arcsys 2D anime-style fighter = one step below gears of war in "marketable mainstream genres" >_>




If anything, p4 is the thing that sells the game more, not that it's a 2D fighter. (and this comes from a fan of both things)

I honestly don't like hardcore fighting games, even if it is Persona.

I just can't be bothered to learn all the moves, and such.

Anyone else have the game yet? :O

I know it sounds all 'heretic n' shit', but I think I'm actually going to WAIT on this.

While I DO love GGXX/BlazBlu, I KNOW there's gonna be some 'Extra Super Edition' in around 6 months with LOADS of new tweaks and features.

For me, I just don't have the cash to toss at a 'trial run' version of a game anymore.

Nah, it won't be out for at least a full year minimum.

I have to wait til september.
I'm horrible at fighters.
I even hated BlazBlue for failing to give any tutorial outside of limtied edition which refuses to tell you the buttons.
I don't have the patience for Persona games.

And yet I like the concept of Persona enough to pay full price for a game I suck at, made by people who make games I hate, based on a game I barely play.

I have no idea who I'll main. I'll wiat to see how they play.

Are you talking about the old old Blazblue?


All of them except the first had extensive in-game tutorials much superior to those of the limited edition CT one.

Yeah, I was stupid enough to buy the first one. I couldn't even get passed Hakumen as Ragna.

I don't think it's a stupid thing, I got CT too, for it's time it was AMAZING! You just shouldn't have stuck with it all this time since there's been better ones out for a few years now.

I suck at them too. I'd say give this one a skip as online will be plagued by the FGC who want the Persona fans to leave.

As much as I hate day one DLC, having Nanako as a commentator and putting glasses on the characters are two things I can't pass up. I'm going to start the game tommorrow and try to get to a point to where I don't suck with Naoto.
If you want to trade usernames here to setup up matches, go ahead.

Once I unlock Mitsuru, I'm totally gonna main her. It's pretty great so far. My only gripe is the long talk between fights in story mode. I mean, I like the story...but it's so long!

I gotta say, Arena is pretty damn awesome.

I've been laying the smackdown on all comers with Chie for the last couple of hours.

I played it for a couple hours today and I fucking love it, but I'm a huge mark for Persona and fighting games in general. I hate the day one DLC, but games are a business...what can ya do, right? I just hope hope hope that there will be more people from 3 coming in. Junpei, Yukari, Ken, maybe even Koromaru (that's be awesome).

Easter Egg: On Yu's bedroom wall is a calender for Catherine, haha.

Message me for my PSN and maybe we can battle sometime. :)

I literally just the game half an hour. I haven't played it yet, since I'm in the middle of another game, but I do intend on playing it.

...That being said, I've never played a Persona game in my life. Is that gonna be a problem?

Everyone is unlocked already. You just need to unlock their stories. If you go do training or online or something you can pick Mitsuru right off.
