The Patron Poll winner of June was Shin Megami Tensei: Persona, breaking new ground into the often requested Megami Tensei series in general. I'm still mainly focused on existing series, of course, but please look forward to this series as well. I will do the main MegaTen series down the line, but like I said, this one is due to the amount of requests going for it. If you are a modern Persona fan, please enjoy and observe the roots of many systems and conventions established by the first game. I find it interesting that Persona spinoff was released in the US before any other MegaTen game and perhaps that is partly why its become arguably more popular than its main series. Either way, I chose to use the updated port due to it being more complete and cleaner than the original Revelations release. Next RECAPitation will be: Valkyrie Profile
YAAAASSS! I can't wait for Persona series getting the Recapitation treatment and more so for one the best underrated franchise ever imo, Valkyrie Profile. "To my side, my noble einherjar!" Let us embark on the journey beyond death.
Brilliant work! Most Persona fans agree that the Persona 2 duology has the best story, though I got to admit it a LOT to follow so best of luck if you choose to do that!
Fun fact: In Persona 2, Igor reveals spending time in the Sea of Souls increases your Persona's power and implies Maki is the most powerful Persona user (of course, this was before Makoto from P3 gained his Wild Card).
For sure, and as interesting of a mascot game as it is, just like Kid Dracula is to Castlevania, it is technically part of the series but also not really part of the series :)

@@battlinjoe2592 i mean, it doesn't fit as much as the original. But the songs by themselves are better, well, music is subjective, but normaly most people listen more to the PSP one
@@jage6344 also higher levels of Social Links make summoned personas of given arcanas stronger from the get go and allow you to summon them stronger already soo yeah you do get more powerful
It seems like there's a lot of connections between this game and 3, especially from the Snow Queen quest. It's really cool to see the connections between Persona games since it helps connect the overall lore. Even if they're separate stories, you can see the similarities and through lines with characters like Igor and Philemon.
Well I believe that P3 Nyx and the Snow Queen are different entities, because the way that they relate with the heroes and their methods are not the same
I *love* that you talk trivia about the inspiration of each Persona that is manifested by the characters. When I first played Persona 3 a lifetime ago, I was also studying theology as a hobby. That enhanced my enjoyment of Persona (As it was my first experience with the series) because of my limited knowledge. I'm pleased it has been a series staple since the beginning, as you elegantly show. As is common for Persona games, the enemies you face here all have cautionary tales of dangerous escapism: Kumi, Yuriko, Kandori, and Maki are all the staples of this. I'm sensing a stronger sci-fi element in this installment compared to Personas 3, 4, and 5. I wonder if it wasn't received too well in this version (Botched PlayStation version aside). This was a pretty awesome RECAP, and I would love to play this myself someday. Be safe, and I'll meet you on the next battlefield. Reference I found: Unnecessary roughness.
Is it just me, or are Kumi’s dream world motivations similar to the final boss of P5R? As in, reality is harsh and would never be as good as it is in a dream world/false reality.
Yup! That's exactly what I thought too. Not to mention the obvious link between P1 and P3 (Kirijo Group formerly being a Nanjo subsidiary, Nyx returning)
P5 borrows from all Persona games. It borrows the most from Persona 2, but it calls back to very game before it because it was Hashino's last Persona game.
Omg I thought Persona started at Persona 3??? Memes aside, very nice job. Can't wait for you to cover Persona 2, which has in my opinion the best story of the series!
Yes, that is the only weak point in Persona 1. The main character is only there to perform self-insertion and accompany the characters on their journey. The real protagonist is Nanjo.
@@BananaDangoGreyrat technically the real protagonists are Maki and Reiji in SEBEC and Yukino and Ayase in SQQ. They are the ones that carry the story. Nanjo is important, but taking in account that you can just do the SQQ without him nerf his protagonism

Excellent summary as always. I knew little to nothing about OG Persona. So that was a crazy journey, took a while to recognize the names, but half way to the video i understood easier what was going on. Lol
NICE! I had started playing this but it's just too clunky for me and i can only play an emulated version. So now i finally know what happened and boy. I totally missed the whole ice queen thing oO
@@Z3DT I played until a bit past the part where maki joins the party. And watching this video I was like wtf, when the hell did all that ice queen stuff happen?? Seemed like a huge part of the game how could I've missed that?
Yeah, if you have never studied Buddhism, this all sounds insane, but I immediately recognized the butterfly story. There is a tale of a monk who, when he awoke from a dream that he was a butterfly, realized that he wasn’t sure if he was the man dreaming the butterfly or the other way around. Although the game is focused primarily on Jungian psychology, it also incorporates just as much Buddhist mythos
I mean, not really in this one, because when the game first came out here it didn't have the Snow Queen Quest, so you didn't fight Toro and Mara. But you still fight Pandora in the end of the SEBEC route so we still had some interesting designs there.
I really can't get it why maki (both version) fall for naoya instead give masao a damn. Dude taking care of her that long when everyone else doesn't, even naoya himself
I’m going to be patiently waiting for Devil Survivor 1 and 2 to be covered on RECAPitation. Mainly because their my favorite SMT games and Persona has a very “unique” fanbase that constantly forgets Persona is part of Megaten.
The actual title is Megami Ibunroku Persona, not SMT despite being part of the franchise. The SMT label was put on the international releases, probably for the sake of brand recognition.
Maybe it's just me, but I can't help but feel like Kumi, the master of the Hypnos tower, looks an awful lot like Maruki in Persona 5 Royal. Even the "Everyone is happiest in their dreams" and "the real world will never be as good" feels very similar.
I thought I was going insane with the similar vibes!! It's wild to see just how much inspiration Royal took from P1 (Kandori & Kumi for Maruki, Maki & Manga-Naoya for Sumire) and gave it a spin inside P5's phantom-thief aesthetic. Also hilarious Maki goes onto work at a therapy clinic in P2 specifically _because_ of the lessons she learned. Way to get better coping mechanisms girl 10/10
long time shin megami fan, only got into persona at 5 (and recently back to 3 and 4 with the recent release). I didn't have the opportunity to play 1 and 2, and I don't even know at this point in time if i'll be able to. So, thank you for the recaps :)

Thank you! Persona 5 is hands down my favourite game I've ever played, just got finished with the platinum trophy on Royal and the original and bought a PC to play P4G now that it's on Steam and I've been looking for videos on what happens in 1-3 and how the series came about. I know a little of SMT but wasn't sure exactly how it branched out into Persona, and bam here's your video to get me up to date.
Is it just me, or does Nanjo have some Byakuya Togami vibes? I mean, slightly nicer Togami, but still the "will say stuff to test others and is kind of an arrogant jerk about it"
Honestly if they were to remake the game, the only changes should be updating the combat, making it a fully 3D third person game, and adding voice acting, along with changing a few aspects of the story so it doesn't feel dated.
I would just make the fights faster and flashy so it doesn't feel as rough for new fans. After all, when you learn how the game works it have the most interesting posibilities out of all the persona games. And I wouldn't change the story, just fix the story telling so it flows better, probably using the manga as a base
Just make the animations faster, make it so the characters exp isn't determined on how much they did during the fight, and give us the good old smt encounter rate bar while slight lowering encounter rates. Game doesn't need voice acting for it to be a full 3d third person game it's perfect as it is.

Never would've figured
makoto being the most powerful is debateable considering he only sealed nyx with the world card which ended up killing himself in the process
Actually youre wrong about the whole "persona being the first SMT game in america" thing! The first was Jack Bros, a Virtual Boy game of all things
You're obscure SMT knowledge has earned you nothing of substance, but I will give you a thumbs up to show that it is appreciated.
