1) The ...A few sidenotes from your friendly Haplo:<br /><br />1) The Dancing All Night newbie, Kanamin (Kanami Mashita) is -essentially- a new character, but she's not entirely unknown to Persona players. She was mentioned in P4 as part of Rise's S-Link; Rise notes that since she's stopped being an Idol, her company has started promoting Kanamin more aggressively- and some people seem to think the Kanamin persona is less fake than the Risette one.<br />2) Persona 5 is looking to have a Q4 2014 release date. It took them about 6-7 months to release Persona 4 and Catherine in NA, and another 6-7 months after that to release it in Europe-Australia. Meaning we might end up getting it here in Australia in... Early 2016. :(<br />3) The notes about tone are interesting. One of, for me, the major tonal differences between P3 and P4 isn't just its -mood- but its approach. Persona 3 had an 'anime' approach to it with the story being full of conspiracy and tension; the events of the game are put into place by events that happened ten years ago, and nearly all of the main characters are linked in inextricable ways due to past events. And most of the mains are either orphans or missing at least one parent, with the only main-cast exception being Fuuka. The events are grim and threaten to affect the world on a global scale.<br />3A) Persona 4's attitude is on the whole a little more subdued. The mains may be unhappy for certain reasons, but these are pretty realistic and it's easy to relate to them. Their background are on the whole a lot more conventional (Naoto coming from some kind of detective dynasty being probably the most unconventional). Ultimately, P4's more down-to-earth than P3- and that isn't a bad thing, but it makes for two pretty interesting tones.Captain Haplohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16409780024944920093noreply@blogger.com
