Well if you think about it, p4 already have many similarities with P3 as it is, both P3 and p4 have a transfer student protagonist that has a persona which backstory is about a mythological figure (Orpheus and izanagi) that lost his lover and went to the "underworld" or equivalent to the world of dead to bring her back, but because they looked at her before returning to the living world she ended trapped in there. Also if I am not mistaken it is said that both nyx and izanami were attracted to the humanity death wish, the main difference is that nyx is an alien/cosmic deity that represents death, and izanami was a goddess of death that was a reflection of people collective consciousness and was doing it because that's what people really wished for, in nyx case humanity would all become lost with the apathy syndrome and die and become shadows, as for izanami case the fog would engulf the world and everyone would become shadows wandering without reasoning until death I may have misunderstood some details, because English is not my native language, but they already have some similarities as it is. So Is not really a surprise that p4 was based into a P3 side story Sorry about my poor English
@@namieblinker5922 I don't really know about that part, because I only played 3 reload and 4 golden hahaha, I didn't played persona 1,2 neither 5. I just saw some random videos from persona 5 and thought maybe there were some kind of explanation for the enemies in 5 being identical to personas. Don't know much about the series to be honest
@@user-mf5iw9pl9j I played Persona 5 for 2 runs, and played Persona 5 Royal for 3 runs, and still no idea if there's a meaning behind it, maybe just a design choice from Atlus?
Shadow Makoto would likely be Makoto wanting to close his heart away because of the pain he felt when he lost his parents. Unlike with Takaya, Shadow Makoto’s act of being cold is because he doesn’t want to feel the pain of losing someone important to him. I like this headcanon of mind of because it’s the opposite of Shadow Yu in the anime, Yu willing succumbs to the illusion of the fog so that he Yu wouldn’t be alone anymore.
@@hakayonder3396it's not an online game, the servers being shut down just means you can't buy it or redownload it anymore, if you already have it and haven't uninstalled it you can still play it just fine.
Also G-Mode (the company ATLUS hired for some of these games) has been putting them on steam and switch. A fan translation for Persona: Another Tower just came out and it's not half bad
I doubt its gonna be lost forever. If Marsh was able to find a company thats actively archiving mobile smt and Last Bible games so people can play them on steam, im sure the same company will uplaod this game eventually, too.
It's a shame a lot wasn't in reload, I'm play portable right now and you can't tell me they could have added the female playable character in a 70 dollar remake of a game already out on these same devices and more
@@jasonnoregretes491sure they could’ve, if they wanted to spend way too much money on the game and have another year or 2 of development. They were never going to make and will never make a full 3d mainline game with optional protagonists. It’s too much work for little payoff.
@@jasonnoregretes491because game development is so easy, having to make new models, rig new animations, pay the animation studio more for new anime cutscenes, ect. I get not having FEMC is disappointing but it would've taken the dev team another year or 2 if they included her
theres actually more of these besides em! me and a friend are working on a document compiling things related to the games (ranging from possible gameplay footage to blog posts about the game) but its still a work in progress. im so glad to see this being covered somewhere
as much as we're tired of seeing atlus being obsessed over P5, technically P3 is their most re-released Persona entry over different platforms. Meanwhile P4 is your typical middle child
P3: vanilla, FES, em(?), Portable (PSP), Portable (modern ports), Reload P4: vanilla, Golden P5: vanilla, Royal, Tactica, X (and a bunch of crossovers/guest appearances we lost count of)
I guess you forgot about Persona 4 Arena and Persona 4 Arena Ultimax. Plus P3, P4, and P5 all got a dancing game. All we need now is an official Persona kart racer.
Several hundreds of these Japanese mobile phone titles were downloaded at the last minute and an emulator is being built by the Megaman community so there's a chance it'll get saved.
Whenever I get mad at Nintendo for introducing dumb gimmicks into their consoles that make games preservation harder or at both them and other companies for letting games straight up disappear, I remember the mobile market and that once in a while, something valid actually comes out and disappears before anyone can notice. Absolute bullshit, the greed junkies running (more like ruining) the industry need to do better
Persona 3 but its actually persona 4
I was finna say
Guessing this has to do with persona 2 having 2 games?
That's what I was thinking lol
Can someone else?
@@jaye4157 no. It has a similar premise to the actual Persona 4 plot
So they took this and thought "Hey, nice concept... Guess who have an idea por Persona 4?"

You say that, but... That's basically the new Persona trilogy when you look at Persona 2.
@@user-mf5iw9pl9j Also the concept of shadows having their own designs instead of shadows and personas being the same things like P5?

Its crazy how lost gameplay of huge games like this were publicly available but are now lost
Like I wonder what the music would even be 😭
That’s neat, Atlus should remake this game into an actual console game, and it would likely sell a lot.
Yes
Maybe as a dlc mission?
It's called persona 4 but this original game is really col
Or release it on mobile again
No they won't, and no, it won't. Please be realistic.

I actually think there’s a slight chance of this being found. Quite a few old phone games like this have been uncovered recently.
If the servers shut down, it can't be legally played anymore tho.
@@hakayonder3396 And? Most games can't be legally played anyway

Real ones know that the true persona game that doesn't exist is P5 Imagining Project.
😢
Dude thank you
The coolest persona game that never existed lmao
What is that?
@@andrewstephenson5825A very cool playlist of songs.
So the shadow self was already planned since then
Shadow selves were introduced in Persona 2 Innocent Sin

Persona 3 EMO
Persona 4 be like
Hopefully G-mode archives finds this one next
I found really hilarious that p1 mobile game got released on steam and got english translation recently compare to p3 mobile game.
PERSONA 4 REFERENCE!!!
Okay I'd actually really like to see a new P3 spin-off similar to this. The concept is really cool.
I really hope G-MODE can manage to save more of these atlus phone exclusive titles like they did for the shinyaku last bible games
Persona 3 Em IS LOST MEDIA????
For now, it appears so yeah
With g-mode+ this might actuality appear again in the future
so it's like Persona 2 but with social links. cool
If I had a nickel for every time a franchise involved with arc sys had a series defining idea first introduced in a defunct spinoff I’d have 2 nickels
Oneiric Psience is REAL!
The Junpei & Akihiko SLs are then used in P3P (FEMC route)
Talk about Mission Aigis which takes place before P3!
15:19 Macca really entering his plankton arc
imagine when they finally get some sleep it's freaking dungeons again
I really hate when these things get lost man
Persona 3 Golden
Damn that sounds pretty interesting, I hope they release it again and in the US too
I would actually love to see this
We need P3M Reload
I knew that, so many memories 😮
So persona 4 in a way. Maybe this inspired persona 4s story
Persona 3.5
considering that Persona 1 mobile game got archived a while back hopefully in thr future it happens to a bunch of other ones as well
Thanatos
It’d be amazing if someone could remake this
So its basicaly what persona 3 would be like in the ds and its actualy persona 4 for a little
Idk why but saying the nightmare hour immediately gave me silent hill vibes
Wjats that demon . Design is amazing
Damn i legit thought this was a joke similar to persona 3 dual.
I am an arcana, in which all will be revealed.
That looks like it would've been a BANGER DS game
they've got to rerelease all of the mobile persona games because they're actually bangers
Arcs are basically shadows
P3 if it was P4... interesting concept.
Imagine this gets ported to ds
Persona 3 (Night) M(are)
Persona 3 but its Persona 2 IS

Ark Personas? You mean Reverse Personas?
anyone got footage link of this?
is it cannon?
Is this real?!?
Persona 4 precursor?
That would actually be Persona 2 since the the penultimate dungeons of IS and the final dungeon of EP had the party members fight their shadow selves.
Der Bruder ist deutsch
Watch the unsatisfied ass persona fanbase, start bitching because Reload doesn't have this content😂
Not as good as Persona 3 Dual
P4 could ever
