- In the beginning Philemon created the dungeons and the protagonist. And the protagonist was without form, and void; and emptiness was upon his personality. And the mask of Philemon moved upon the face of his creation. And Philemon said, Let there be Persona: and there was Persona.

The manga adaptation of that game is really good too. If I recall the manga is Megami Ibunruku Persona. Good video bro.
I finished the manga
@@bluesquirt7117 how did you get it
@@mathieuosakue8449 I'm using manga geek
@@bluesquirt7117 Thanks 😉👍
That name is also the Japanese name of revelations persona for ps1
3 words:
Mark danced crazy
MDC
When Mark Danced Crazy... I felt that 😔
Mark doing his 90s Twerking
Damn bro the thanatos tower looking like the PS5
And it sure as hell plays like one.
@@thegumonyourshoes so from that comment I’m assuming it’s good
We're getting a p3 remake for the PS5 at some point confirmed
The Persona 1 manga is actually really good. The protagonist in the game is definitely a blank slate, but he's unironically a great character in the manga.
26:02 Tadashi's not from if.... He's actually the self-insert character of the writer, Satomi Tadashi. Also, great work as always, guy.
You have bested me in SMT knowledge good sir, I tip my hat to you.
But yeah, I only learned that tidbit somewhere in the middle of the process of creating this, and I guess I never caught my flub before I published. Whoops.
@@firescale2091 Yeah, and that little tidbit leads to one of the more...unfortunate aspects of this scenario. See, Tamaki's design was based on a popular celebrity at the time. A celebrity the real life Tadashi had a crush on. In other words, Satomi Tadashi made a self insert so he could fulfill his celebrity crush through the protagonist of Shin Megami Tensei if. This went over about as well as you'd expect, and the backlash reached the point where the Tadashi character was completely cut from Eternal Punishment over it.
@@firescale2091 yeah, people got mad at Tadashi so he was written off in persona 2 Eternal Punishment.
@@finalsurvivor1 that feel when most mangaka and other authors base main heroines off girls they have crushes on or their ideal girl
Yeah I can see why Persona became a popular franchise, it's amazing how much the first game really does pack in so much good character writing and internal character conflict and resolution. The people who were big fans of this game really must've seen something in the game. Also Philemon is truly guy of all time.
Love the transitions between the two routes. great work as always, looking forward to your next work of art.
What are you talking about? There's only one route in Persona 1! It's the Snow *static* Maki route!
I discovered Persona because a friend and I grew up trawling for obscure RPGs. I never thought I'd find something so philosophical in this bizarre but awesome series. Anyway, if you never grew up playing these kinds of games its not hard to imagine people getting lost and confused by P1 before the PSP remake did it justice. I like both versions for different reasons.
I played it in 1997 or whenever. I didn’t feel lost or confused; more like exhilarated. Found some battles very hard though. And I never did figure out the moon phase stuff and its practical application..same as in real life.
Revelations is the first and only 4kids-made game localization pretty much
Persona 4 definitely has the best setting. You really end up feeling immersed in Inaba.
This might be weird but I like Kandori. Yeah his goal to become God is generic but what makes it interesting for me is that he gets what he wants and when he does, he loses any sort of motivation. I think that's something we rarely see in media is the villain not knowing what comes after. Then he's back in Eternal Punishment and, while I don't like how I understand he was brought back (this is subject to change as I'm still playing it), I like his answer to Nanjo as to why he's doing this when he seemed so remorseful at the end of Persona 1. He simply thinks he's too old to change. It brings him back as the monster her was when he first died without undermining that amazing scene for me
As far as Kandori coming back I liked his ending, telling Kei to take care of it and Tatusya to not let his goals consume him
This game is super underrated imo
The battle system is the most complete of the series, it's hard to master but incredibly satisfying. It was a pretty clever battle system, I really like the idea of positioning your party for them to complement their weaknesses and all. The story is still very original to this day, it's like a Carl Jung video game and I think it best captures the notion of "Persona" in series. The Carl Jung influence has definitely left the Persona series in P3/4/5. Not saying thoses games are bad, but it's a bummer.
That's a very interesting opinion.
I actually think its the opposite, and that the Jung's references are more apparent in p3-5.
All of the Persona games are great non the less.
@@shade4404 p3 yes but p4 and p5 has turn into social commentary more than philosophical idea
@@hahalery Ignoring the fact that in P4 you spend at least 60% of the game confronting people's Jungian Shadows but okay then
@@ellagage1256 Nah Persona 4 misunderstood the concept of Shadow and "true self" imo
@@trickortriq How so? I thought P4 did a good job representing them
*lol* at Ayase and her sharp, cutting "THUG LIFE" ways!!
I do adore how she says "Like....Persona" and "Hurry up and come on out" when summoning.
I dont think your really supposed to feel bad about the butler dying, more so feel bad for nanjo for losing some9ne he's close to
I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!!!
Same
You see that Shinji?
Holy shit, I did not expect this story to be so sad, poor Maki... Damn
That devil survivor music at the beginning tho👀
The quality of this video is insane. Keep it up :D
Big thanks for covering this series. I’ve tried playing Persona 1 a couple times cause I wanna experience them all but the first person exploration always put me off, so being able to get a nice summery of the story like this is really nice! This is probably my favorite series of games so being able to really dig into it this way makes me very happy
Same here the gameplay was not for me but the story seemed good, hopefully they remaster it at one point
Omg yes! I have loved watching these. I’m playing through Eternal Punishment right now and as soon as I finish it I’m playing Persona 1! Thank you for such a great series
I was a little bit confused as of when the routes split but then I remembered that they're separate stories that don't align. This was really well done though, and I'm gonna check out your other stuff
I literally just started playing Trauma Center today so hearing the OST in this video was surreal
It just makes me sad. ;_;
As someone who has played this game like 7 times, I can say that yall exaggerate this game's shortcomings too much. This game is dope. Not even mentioning the manga which enhances the story quite a bit too.
Indeed it is dope
@@yes-jp5fjreal. P1 was dope
You forgot to mention how important answering Mai's question in the little gingerbread house is towards getting the good ending. *tsk tsk*
If you see giant teddy bears. You fail.
"nice things: the death of akechi"
damn, no hesitation lmao
P5R: you like semi-retcons that are very unclear in the ending?
When I first saw raiho I didn't realise it was him via the music playing and thought it was naotho
who?
Well I found myself another in depth look at Persona video. Only difference is this one is done with wit and loads of humor. Subscribed.
“Persona 4 has.........Nanako”
Finally able to see where it all started, you have my thx
Why do all the characters look cursed when compared to the manga? Sonomura in the hospital looks like a zombie
Because the manga was handeled by a totally different artist. I still don't know why some of Kaneko's portraits in the game are so crusty because his promotional work for the game is godly
Yeah i know that but they’re just too different. It’s almost like they aren’t the same character
I seriously hope you get bigger one day cause god this video is really nice and formatted
Speaking of which, do you have a Twitter or discord?
The beginning of this game is basically 1 to 1 corpse party
What i learned
Ayase best character
Tfw no Reiji
For a channel with such little attention this is the best video I’ve seen.
Your dismissive attitude towards this game inspires me to play it in defiance of you.
This is a really interesting way of Handeling both main quest lines
Persona 4 definitely has the best Nanako to date. Also, loved the video. Persona 1 is charming, and i really don't think it has aged badly, like people love to claim it did.
I wouldn't say it aged badly, but it sure as hell is a lot less bearable to play when there's so many games offering quality of life gameplay. This game is tedious as hell but has probably one of the most compelling stories in SMT as a whole, the story is great but the gameplay could use a tooooon of touch-ups. If you have fun with the style of game this is though more power to you, just most people aren't able to play the thing and have fun hence why a lot of us are here in general.
Iirc the part of the game with Alaya Shrine and the sea of souls near the end was interesting. I wonder why you left that out.
When he said that the sqq story wasn't important i had a bad feeling about this video. He also left out interesting about Kandori and Maki masked Persona's in the SQQ
Sadly, most youTuber don't take p1 seriously.
I love how saying five words can bestow greater upon you than accepting the darker side of yourself as being part of you XD
Yeah i read the whole run of the manga and its very good and the characters gets some great development especially the main character some good stuff
Do you script these? Genuinely impressed with the focus throughout the whole thing! Thanks for covering this one so I don’t have to put up with these awful looking dungeons!
What happened with those two masked people that was cut away from? And the Night Queen?!
Also if we talking about Persona 4 having “nanako...etc etc”, one thing We’ve been discussing in my university video game class is the tone that it covers: a little more adult, a little more grounded in reality (besides tv world, but it could be a replacement for any fantasy place but keeps it in Inaba). The Persona 5 approach to broadening the appeal, and changing the object of the game to bad adults won more fans (along with the game quality of life upgrades of course!), but it was pretty basic and had little nuance. Fun! But not cinematic in the same sense Persona 4 was - Persona 4 had a real last boss! The god was only the optional boss. P5Royal fixed a lot about those themes and basic ness of the general story by adding in the compassions ion ate final villain. That was just out take on it from the class!
The short answer is pretty much nothing happens with the masked Maki and Kandori at the end of the snow queen route. They say a few lines hinting at Maki's storyline then disappear and, that's it, end of the route.
They're basically there to kind of tie in with the main storyline, and show that the snow queens powers at least somewhat come from Maki's alternate world.
@@firescale2091 hmm an interesting design choice ! Thanks for letting me know
never forget the Past, live the Present and fight for the Future
Such an underrated video
YAY I LOVE YOUR RECAPS!
Bruh, I chose all the wrong options because of save states and they all resulted in the same outcome. I was able to get Mc and Maki’s ultimate persona and picked Brown so that was a hilarious and fun experience. Overall, loved the game, good game
channel is great i am recommending it to my friend! hopefully you'll do more of these videos in the future thank you!
I want a P1 remake
37:32 If I remember correctly, he's called devil boy by one of the other students as you start the Snow Queen Quest
I love the persona series. Played 1 on the psp. If I played it before 3 and 4 I'd likely have loved it. However it was a bit. . . difficult to complete. It definitely made me appreciate the advancements the series made.
Fan translation of Escaform came out last year. Its practically begging for a good story recap video like this. Great story too.
Man I love the vid wanted to get a complete recap before going in to person 5
2:18 An RPG where my ultimate goal isn't to murder God? I'M SOLD!!!!!!!!
Slogging through the final third of this game is slowly whittling away my want to play the rest of the series.
Bravo...here here...good show, chap.
Okay I laughed at that last bit, probably harder than necessary 😂
There is nothing wrong with PersonaQ I am currently playing it and Im enjoying it
I just want to be able to have party members be able to switch out persona. Wild card can still summon & fuse them, but let me equip everyone with a different persona so I can use more strategy. Newer persona games get praised for being more convenient, but they feel like they just stripped down the combat to me. Can't even have more than 4 party members out at a time.
Also, Yamaoka dying is significant to Kei since he was the one to raise him when his parents could not or would not. It's also Kei's personal reason to stop Kandori. Yamaoka's last wish for Kei also has significance on his future development. Sure characters that seem to exist just to die may seem one-note, but considering his age it was inevitable he was going to die any, but instead, he is killed trying to save Kei and didn't resent him for Kei Badmouthing him, but instead told him he knew he would become number 1 man in japan. I would say it's heart-rending even if you don't have full context from the start.
Protagonist: She’s Maki, she’s Maki, you’re Maki! Are there any other Maki’s I should know about?
Pandora: …
philemon looks like a mii
I love how in the other Persona games the main team always feel bad for the villains or at least think about there actions and the morality of it all and if there really doing the right thing or if it's all in vein. And then in this game the protagonists just don't care
How does the silent protagonist always get the girl
This was pretty good. I looked forward to this
literally the first persona game I've played
I’m really glad to have come across your channel since I’d been really meaning to invest myself into the Persona series, part by part, without having to sit through a gameplay or a lengthy analysis of the game.
I’d only played the P4 Golden and currently on P2 Sin but wanted some more exposure on the franchise and the JRPGs as a whole in general. So yes your channel was exactly what I needed honestly!
I watched your P1 JRPGs told long video in its entirety and absolutely loved every second of it! ❤️ Your jokes hit so well too despite not having played the game myself and kinda not wanting too because bruh I can’t sit through the agony of that insane gameplay haha
So I had to subscribe to you ASAP! Thank you for doing such an awesome job covering the Persona games and really breaking it down in simple yet so entertaining bits for curious Raihou I mean viewers like me! ^^ Really appreciate this man 👏 Keep up the good work
Good god, sir! You played the original ps1 release?
Imagining the case of ur persona game strapped with leather dom gear
This video is as long as the Game
Persona 4 is my favorite it has the best characters in my opinion...and the best story but that just me
Hey, I agree with you.
Think atlus can put the old games into a p3/4/5 format? Same story with changes and just include the originals with them? Personally i think that would be neat
Killer Queen has already touched this video
So it's the bomb.
Woah what a amazing content, Your channel deserve more attention
Persona 4: When you have nothing good to say but pull something out of your ass to try and seem nice
thank you awesome video
>Lists only 1 good thing about Persona 4
Oh ok I see we are just lying about P4G being bad to bait people, gotcha
Persona 2: Best Plot, sure it was kinda of messy but it felt urgent that you had to save the world where the others made it a side plot or forgettable
Persona 3: Developed the best game mechanics besides not controlling your character
Persona 4: Best Characters, I know it’s controversial, but the characters felt more memorable than others in the franchise, even the side characters felt unique. It also improved the game mechanics from P3.
Persona 5: Best Soundtrack. Last Surprise, River in the Desert, etc. While P4 and P3 had great soundtracks, P5 gets me humming it more.
After watching this Imma just read the manga I have played all the other Persona games but this one just isn't gonna happen.
I recommend you read the manga then watch a play through of the snow Queen quest
I didn't like this video as much as the one for persona 2. I think instead joking about the game and its story you should just explained the game, characters and story beats like you did with 2. You also skipped over a lot of things.
This is something i notice about a lot of P1 videos is that people seems to skim trough it without too much of a thought and how the things enhance the themes of the game.
It just seems that P1 can't fight this stigma of being a game with not much thought put in it, when it's actually the opposite but i guess is the price to give the players this much freedom
@@steelblake Yeah it's like they just rush through it just to finish it and not actually experience the game.
1:01:46 - OHHHH!!! So that is the HUGE REVEAL!!!??? Wow. M Night Shamalan eat yer heart out....never expected that literal dimension warping twist......*cough* *cough* (sarcasm)
Persona Q did it better.
I wasn't aware that the little girl and making were related till u spoiled it for me )=(
Fug I made a mistake its maki dang autocorrect
7:36 Why Mackie?
Please do SMT IF I have no idea what that games about lol
Persona 4 has a best chad 😅
i thought shin megami tensei was it's own thing? i didn't know it was originally a subtitle (person i mean)
Awesome. Been wondering if I should play this.
Haven’t watched it yet, but I know it’s about to be a good watch.
Edit: Hell no im not playing this lmao.
But I do love how Ayase has zero chill. XD
I love the team, but the game is waaaaay too tedious.
It's just about as tedious as any other persona game . Less tedious than P3 I'd say. took me 70h with voluntary grinding to get to the last dungeon.
It's extremely easy, so the combat system's possible depth is unused. Same for P2.
Persona 1 has Mark Dances Crazy as it’s unique thing it did better.
you show to many things from other persona games and spoil later stuff as you're explaining the story like bruh why put this much effort into the vid if you're gonna keep doing this
I feel like p4 and p5 are missing big flaws in their main cast. In the sense like here there’s an air head who looks down on people none of the p5 cast or p4 cast really have any big flaws they’re all pretty much perfect
You probably know this by now but Maki is pronounced mah-ki. Liked the video but that took me out of it a few times
And P4 has the best group
Too much memeing....just say the facts
Very good over view of the whole game.
Persona 5 scramble is the best warriors game ever !
Yas king
mackey
Raihe-ho
Persona 3 having the best plot never made sense to me. Worst pacing and story telling in the series. It has the potential to be best ....but what we got? Absolutely not. My least favorite between 3,4, and 5
Personally Persona 2 Eternal Punishment has the most mature/distinct atmosphere out of all of them. The other Persona’s feel too childish in comparison.
Bold of you to call akechis death a good thing, or that he died at all
The death of Akechi is not a nice thing. You can't kill a person right after his redemption ark -_-
But thanks for the video!
Persona 1 wasn't too bad. It's the first of its kind for the series, so meh.
I took issue with the original localization more than anything else...
Also, I'm of the belief that MC PC's don't really need a personality. They're fine being player self inserts. Honestly, I prefer that since that's kind of the point of genuine roleplaying.
Ah, witty modern gamer fueled, judgmental quips about the cleverness of an RPG that came out in 1996.... Nice.
4 Is the best game
