    @bradbrains: A year???? Why they take so long??? D:

    its a complete guess.

    translation and voice over takes a while though

    the good news is atlus games are often very quick in doing that so we MAY see it this year.

    its a hope for the best prepare for the worst kinda thing.

    Some of you guys need to calm down, lol. The trailer was impressive, but we still don't know much about the game. Now I can see why you guys end up horribly dissapointed with most games. Expectations unrealistically high.

    Well, I don't know. The gameplay they showed was a weird mixture of stealth and RPG stuff, which is something I've ever seen before. Even if it's clunky and frustrating, at least it seems original, which on its own is exciting.

    Atlus has given me no reason not to expect greatness. I've enjoyed like 90% of the games they've developed in the last like 10 years.

    1. The new mascot character is a cat...because why not2. The main character's main weapon is NOT a sword this time it seems. It's a gun.

    No, there's a weapon choice and a gun choice in the menu. The gun thing seems to just be a secondary thing.

    If people can't get unreasonably excited about a highly anticipated game, then what are we all even doing?

    I mean, did you SEE those menus? There's a slot for a weapon AND a gun.

    Welp, I'm sold. I thought I was Persona'd out with so much constant persona this and that since 4. I was wrong!

    Holy cow now that was a great trailer, informative and flashy.

    Can't believe it took this long to show gameplay. Again I damn near remember them saying it was supposed to be out last Winter. Anyways good to see SOMETHING, at long last. I hope there are more then four characters and I hate that one of them is a dumb mascot again. Everything else about the trailer looks great though.

    I hope they link this game to P3/4 somehow even if its just a small cameo by a throw away character or something.

    Hmm, might want to play this. I got halfway with 4, but got a bit bored with the dungeons and combat.

    I love the presentation, such style!

    trailer looked slick, I especially like the theme, probably the best so far.

    The first thing I thought when watching this was "Superhero", by that I mean vigilante

    Here's a summary of the dev comments on the Persona 5 website, ripped from the GAF:

    Now that the site is actually working, it looks like they have a new blog post up: http://p-ch.jp/news/detail/?nid=244

    It's a message from Hashino and the dev team to fans. He talks about how Persona 5's main influences are School Juvenile fiction and Picaresque novels. Unlike previous Persona games where the players were clearly a team on the side of "good" going after a bad guy, this time they're trying for something a little different. The story is about high school students chasing after their own interpretation of "justice" after an unexpected incident. He hopes fans will enjoy the enhanced graphics and sound in the new entry as well as party members who might be a little more ill-mannered than before.

    Edit: Here's the full post translated thanks to Siliconera.

    Wow, I was kinda right :)

    I woke up and watched this trailer this morning, and I was absolutely blown away by every second of it. I had to immediately re-watch the trailer once it finished. That rarely ever happens for me.

    This is arguably one of the best game trailers ever made. It is visually pleasing, the music that was chosen is very catchy, and they show actual in game footage! If they finish the game development with the level of detail that this trailer has this will be a defining game for the Modern JRPG genre.

    I can only hope that Atlus doesn't try to rush it out before the end of this year-- though its been about 4 years since Catherine was released so you would hope they are applying the final touches to everything.

    Bloodborne in the Spring. Witcher 3 in the Summer. Persona 5 in the Fall/Winter? Shaping up to be a good year for RPGs if you ask me.

    Stylish video and very distinct music as always but man does that coat look dumb in gameplay. .Also, still no default female MC

    That does suck. FeMC is the way to play P3 in my opinion, but maybe that's just because they got to take another pass at the script.

    One nice thing about a FeMC would be that we wouldn't get stuck with a pandering, generic, pablum-spewing, LOLBOYSWILLBEBOYS sidekick like Yosuke or Junpei.

    Yukari fills the best bud role much better in P3. I didn't even really like her when I played FES, but I really liked her when I played P3P.

    Oh man yeah Yukari's social link stuff as a female MC is all real good (Junpei's is...okay, but really just kind of annoying).

    Sorry for being slightly off topic(I guess) but I'm super excited because I'm doing cosplay for the first time and I'm assembling an outfit for the P5 protag :D

    Luckily, I don't think I'll even need a wig...

    Before they announced this I was hoping they would leave the high-school setting to explore other parts of japanese life, so I was kinda disappointed when they revealed it will be another high-school story. I would still play whatever Persona they make, but I'd love for them to take chances on the setting. For example, I'd love a Persona game playing as a bored, 30-40 years old salary man who for some reason gets persona'd.

    However, this turned me all the way around, holy shit. This has a different atmosphere while keeping the persona aesthetic. It looks even better than expected.
