Scarface Posted March 9, 2006 Author Share Posted March 9, 2006 A little about the game....... The game's protagonist is a high school student attending a private school on an island located close to the harbor city of Iwatodai. At first glance he lives a normal life as he attends school in the morning and then heads for the city to hang out with his friends in the afternoon. However, in the world of Persona 3 a day does not have 24 hours. In fact, every day at midnight the so-called Shadow Time begins. The lord of this time is the game's villain: A monster by the name of Shadow. While normal human beings don't realize its existence, the protagonist and his friends are apt at moving around in this Shadow Time. After being attacked by Shadow, the 17-year old acquires this ability and because of his extraordinary capability becomes the leader of a unit set up to defeat Shadow. Other playable characters include the protagonist's fellow Junpei Iori (who can summon the Persona Hermes) and the optimstic and cheerful heroine Yukari (whose Persona is known as Io). During the day players will attend school and after the club activities in the afternoon they are able to move around freely in town, visiting various locations, such as the school, the station or the local Shinto Shrine. At night, when the Shadow Time begins, the world around the protagonists changes and the battle for the future begins. A mysterious tower known as Tartaros Director also exists in this world. Hashino explains that the Shadow Time is basically an extension of the spiritual world highlighted in previous Persona games. Character designer Soejima mentions that it was his aim to create a world that was neither science-fiction nor fantasy-themed from the very beginning. Instead he wanted to create a stylish modern-day world. In total the game will cover a one-year period which translates into a playing time of more than 50 hours, according to Atlus. The game will try to emulate a student's life in a realistic way, by throwing exams, school festivals and illnesses such as a cold at the player. An important aspect of the game are so-called Communities. If the player manages to befriend community NPCs, he can level up his community levels. A high community level will translate into being able to raise more powerful Personas. Persona 3 will let players fuse multiple Personas. Therefore the player needs to bring two or more Persona cards to the Velvet Room. Those Persona cards can be obtained by defeating Shadow in battle. Once the player obtains a new Persona card, the creature residing within the card can be summoned. After a victorious fight, players might have to choose among five different Persona cards. Up to four party members can take part in a battle. Quote Link to comment

LinkOcarinaMan Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 The bastard child of Shin Megami Tensei. I don't know what to think of this. I have played 2 Persona games and they have been very different. Persona was a god awful piece of tripe. Persona 2: Eternal Punishment was pretty sweet. Either way, I doubt this will see a US release. Quote Link to comment
Ceraziefish Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Persona 2 had a spot in the Ogre Battle 64 strategy guide. There begins and ends my involvement with the series. However, I guess this new one sounds interesting. Definite play before you buy, though. Quote Link to comment

Akito Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 This game does look rather difficult. Quote Link to comment
Chrono of The Black Howling Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Yeah, it does. if those chracters are around 70ish range then it seems that they are underpowered compared to the enemies that dishes out massive amounts of damage. This isn't really a bad thing to me since im a definsive minded player anyway. Quote Link to comment
Natsu Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 WTF man are they shooting themselves in the head to do attacks..thats morbid...and I still wanna play it. Quote Link to comment
Scarface Posted August 4, 2006 Author Share Posted August 4, 2006 Did anyone notice the massive pool of blood around the main character? hahahahaha This game is going to be great! Quote Link to comment
