wait Persona 5 came out nearly 10 years ago? no way feels like it was 4 or 5 years ago. damn I now suddenly feel very old.

They did their Royale edition about five years ago that kinda breathed new life into Persona 5 since it also released on a bunch of new systems. I know that's how I got to experience the game, once it came to PC.

It also came out 7 years ago. It also came out 5 years ago. Its spinoffs came out 6 years ago, 3 years ago, and 1 year ago.

What we know so far: The logo is green. Wow!

[–] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Makes sense. Persona 3 was blue, Persona 4 was yellow, Persona 5 was red. Green just seems to be the next focal color.

[–] MolochAlter@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

1 was purple and 2 was orange, green was the last color left.

Finally, they’ve made the change fans have been asking for.

[–] grinning_serpent@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Hopefully it's harder (on the hard difficulty settings) than P5R is. Hard in P5R kinda hits the apex of its challenge with the 2nd dungeon's boss and the Merciless mode actually makes the game really easy.

Wouldn't mind if the protagonists were older too. Maybe college aged? I'm in my 40's! It's hard to take seriously the difficulties of teens that haven't even had to deal with the misery of the adult world yet.

Might be luckier with the SMT's then the Persona's but even then teenage protags are still a staple. The recent two Like a Dragon games both have a middle ages protagonist fwiw.

[–] grinning_serpent@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

I've only played 5 and it was the typical teen boy becomes a god and changes the world kinda thing. I wish JRPGs would escape that crap but I guess it's part and parcel of the genre.

Is it just me or is it franchise revival time?
