I've been meaning to play P4G (since I've only played the vanilla version a few years ago,) but I have so much backlog now.
Also, it sucks that most of these are digital only since physical copies are astronomically expensive.

Like, 5's already physical so it wouldn't make sense.

I’m just excited to finally be able to play a persona game.

I think if you were wanting to do an adaptation of Persona (and I'm saying this with the knowledge there are already multiple adaptations of it) I think the best approach to take would be to do it as a TV show and do a unique plot with the same trappings rather than trying to adapt any of the games. Maybe skew a little older with the cast, show us what it's like for a Wild Card who has to juggle the usual Persona trappings with a work schedule or something.

You know they'll go the easy path and stick with the high school setting.

Yeah, especially in a post Euphoria world, there isn’t really a reason for a network or a streaming service to not go with that, as unique a premise that idea sounds like.

If they change settings, a college setting is a lot more interesting to me than a wild card salaryman.
Though having the wild card being an adult in a high school setting could be intersting. Like another Maya. Though no romances with students please.

It's almost funny/sad how few changes you'd have to make to Euphoria to make it a Persona story lol.

The Atlus Consumer Stream is ongoing and whilst there isn't anything Persona related (yet), this is still interesting to put up here.

The English fan translation of the PSP version of Persona 2 Eternal Punishment just finished on that note.

Forgot to update it when more stuff came out but a couple of interesting Persona things to come from it.
And the Atlus games the fans want most remade, the Top 4 being off interest to us…
Persona 3 (P3 / P3FES / P3P) (78.9%) Persona 2: Innocent Sin / Persona 2: Eternal Punishment (78.9%) Revelations: Persona (76.3%) Persona 4 (P4G) (74.8%)
Just to note, the survey was before the announcement of P3: Portable coming to consoles but still.

They managed to compress the hell out of the Switch port of Royal, from 37 GB down to 12 GB, so that's pretty convenient.
That said I'm having my doubts these new ports are actually going to come out on time. Supposed to be out in a month but not yet available for preorder anywhere physically or digitally. Definitely feels like a delay's going to happen.

I did not expect to see a thread on this game on the 1st page. I recently started playing the game for the first time because it was 1 of the games my kids saved to my PS5 and I’ve been hooked. It’s ridiculously fun, though the number of grown-assed women I think the MC (a minor) can romance is……problematic. That’s not to say that I don’t like some of those characters (though I constantly blow off the drunken reporter and feel like the teacher was lifted from some porn film).

Yeah, that's one the biggest criticisms the fandom has with the game. I thoroughly ignored doing anything coded romantic with the adults; hell, I basically play most Persona MCs as asexual anyways (if we we're supposed to play them as ourselves, that is.) 😅

Honestly, those adult romances kinda suck anyways outside of the ick factor tbh. The romances between the other Phantoms are much more natural and interesting.

Yeah, I just sort of got steered to Ann but only because I need my charm up more than I do to advance the relationship with Makoto. Maybe on game+.

She’s not an adult, but I found the romance with Hifumi Togo more interesting than any of the Phantom Thieve girls. Ann’s a close second though. Everyone likes Makoto, but she may be my least favorite of the team members. Too bossy for me.
