Rambling About Persona Relationships and Character Archetypes

- Опубліковано 27 кві 2020
- I barely know how to describe this one it's kind of just us talking about characters archetypes like tsunderes in Persona, and the weird lack of effect dating has on group dynamics. The characters in this thumbnail are all either talked or joked about in some way.

Now I want one version of Persona 3 ending for each social link. Imagine that emotional music playing while Tanaka tries to sell you a coffin.
for just 1 million Yen
Nobody in this world will ever give me the life lessons my bro Tanaka did.
Imagine with the dying young man, just a spirit calling you
The emotional music will be filthy frank's I am beautiful cover.
@@higui7ah
That would be kinda cool if you think about it the spirit guy would be like "ayy now i have a friend forever" KAZE NO KOOE~
Marie calls Chie and Yukiko red and green but it’s better than calling them Meat and Laugh
Who's Chie and Yukiko? I only know Meat and Laugh.
@@UnluckyMakoto I know Laugh and Yukiko Kung Fu Meat
Red and Green
Meat and Laugh
Mea and Laug
Ma and Lug
Mar and Luig
Mari and Luigi
Mario and Luigi
Dont you mean Mario and Luigi?
Meat and Laugh are infinitely better names than red and green
but let's be real, story based 2nd awakenings need to come back.
I feel like 3rd awakenings would be good to take it's place
Your Everyday Protagonist it could either be like that or that 3rd awakenings happen when you complete the social link (though depending on how far into the story the character comes in that could be hard to do)
@@dylanbell268 it could be like
by not completing sosiale link: second awakening at finals
by completing sosiale link: 3rd awakening at finals
Your Everyday Protagonist yeah, I was thinking something along the same lines.
It should probably be whichever comes first, social link or story. Than whichever one you didn't do will be the third awakening.
The chie example is funny because there's a scene where you, chie, and yukiko are hanging out in class I think it's before the festival, and they ask you who you like. I was dating Chie so I said her and she was just shocked.
Just the opposite. Dating Chie by the time you get the King's Game scene. She doesn't react at all while Rise's face was on my crotch
Same happened with me. That’s like one line they’d have to change and it wouldn’t even be that hard. Come on guys.
@@jonahj9519 Same. Yu was dating Yukiko, and, when he began flirting with her during the culture festival group date, she just blushed and made no note of their relationship.
Same energy as "STOP ACTING LIKE ITS A TRICK WE'RE MARRIED YOU EGG"
"dying in the rooftop, with all your bros sitting around you"
clearly the best ending.
Picture this:
Junpei holds the protagonist at the rooftop, he remembers he has magic healing blood, he cuts his hand and starts pouring it in the protagonist's face, the rest of S.E.E.S. shows up but at a weird angle and all they can see is Junpei's back and the protagonist's legs, before they can say anything they hear:
"Agh! Junpei stop it! Aaaagh it's going in my mouth stop! Aaaaaaaghh it's warm! O God it's in my nose!"
Cut to deadpan S.E.E.S. faces

If they added a yandere character it would most likely be an antagonist
Yea would be interesting to have a early party member turn on you towards the end so its less predictable make them very hidden to the obession
in that case, how about that character hold the judgement arcana, but it's reversed until an ending where you choose her and guide her to make better judgement
Or an antagonist that could become a supporting character depending on dialogue or relationship. I can see them being a team member but are passive-aggressive or a prankster to the competition or the MC's love interest. Not melicious but misguided.
Alice
@@veryexciteddog963 i actually finished my alice build like 5 minutes ago
There's already a yandere character. That one girl from Shujin that's stalking a guy
Be she not a confidant/social link
She's the closest we'll get to a yandere character and she isn't even a character.
There s also that girl from gekkoukan who thirst for mitsuru
@@namoma4922 Wait there was anyone there who wasn't thristy for Mitsuru?
She made me laugh man.
Persona 3 Valentines Day scene? I can't really imagine it being much different from Christmas. If you reject every single girl on Christmas and then go back to the dorm, you can talk to each girl and they'll each have a line of dialogue of something like, "Oh... you're not doing anything tonight?" And they sound really sad because you literally chose to do nothing over spending time with them on Christmas.

I had a dissonance moment like that in 5. I got to the scene where you go to the shrine with Ann and run into Takemi and she casually says "Oh are you one date? I wouldn't expect kids your age to come to a place like this."
I was dating Takemi!
That happened to me on the night I maxed that confidant. Went home, Ann called and we went to the shrine... there she was.
I think the “no cheating amongst party members” thing can work, it just needs some additional context.
In what I’m picturing, say you decide to romance Ann, then at the evening of that day there should be a message in the phantom thieves group chats were she gives the news to the rest , and they congratulate the two of you. I feel like this would be very nice and satisfying for those who takes the romances more seriously. After that point, the entire team knows that the two of you are dating, so it wouldn’t make sense to be able to date say makoto, as she knows you’re already in a relationship. You can still cheat on her with say Hifumi if you’re interested in that, as the two don’t know each other, but that shouldn’t get in the way of adding more romance specific interactions.
Only problem is that I feel the Haru confidant would be very different if you were already in a relationship, and there’s no easy way to implement that (what if you start dating someone else a few ranks in?)
What if there was an option to share or keep secret that you romanced said person
and their 3rd awakening is their supposed outfits with a mix of a wedding dress that only works if you truly dated a single girl
I never understood how the subject of dating joker wasn't ever brought up among the team, even if it was offscreen. Like, Makoto seems to get along well with both Ann and Haru in the few scenes they share together, so I doubt that they wouldn't at least bring up that they were dating Joker when chatting. Especially in the case of Makoto - she would definitely want to ask Ann or Haru about dating tips since she isn't as experienced.
Dear lord, realistically, if Joker were dating Ann, Makoto, Futaba or Haru it would literally show up in the group chat all the damn time. What about when he was in jail and they were all working together to bust him out? Nobody talked about it then?
@@TheJadedJames yes, not being able to disclose your relationship is something that always bothered me in P5, even more than in P4.
@@ShermTank7272 Apparently is cause they dont want to complicate things on the team, so they keep the relationship a secret. It was mentioned in some material.
Personally I find P4 in that regard. I doubt Chie and Yukiko wouldn't blab to each other that their dating MC
Idk, God or something:"are you seriously dying by yourself?"
Minato:"NAH, I'M WITH MY BOYS!"
I find myself yelling “NAH IM WITH MY BOYSSS!!” During the day
I'd be happy with just a few extra bits of dialogue that has teammates acknowledge that you're dating someone, or different dialogue in certain story moments, similar to a Bioware-style romance. That'd kind of kill the option of a harem route but tbh I wouldnt be sad to see it go as the scenes never really added much for me.
Someone else here mentioned it but a great example in P5 is a scene in which Joker is asked about marriage and if you're dating a girl who happens to be in the room at that moment she has a short line of unique dialogue. Little stuff like that.
I was watching Persona 5 Royal Mementos Conversations and I really like Ryuji and Kasumi talking about being athletes because they both follow the Sports Club Character Archetype in the Persona series (other examples are Akihiko, Kazushi, Mamoru and Rio from Persona 3 and Kou and Daisuke from Persona 4) and throughout the games that character trope is usually left as a Social Link but this time they’re both party members, which within itself is interesting as the party members in the Persona games don’t really have any common interests with each other.
Usually seeing two characters who fall into specific tropes and actually interacting based on their shared interests is something I usually look out for in the spin-off games like Persona Q1 and Q2; an example of this being Rise and Yukari interacting Persona 4 Arena Ultimax talking about fashion, modelling, appearing on TV and so on.
What about yuko?
@@kingdomheartsispeak4724 Yuko doesn't actually partake in any of the sports; she's just the team manager.
There actually is one part in Persona 5 where something happens if you’re dating a party member during a mandatory group event. I could be remembering this wrong but I think everyone is studying and Ryuji asks if you want to get married someday and if you say yes, whoever you’re dating blushes and acknowledges it.
Well, we now have a tsundere and yandere mix in p5r...
It's obviously Akechi
Thats actually true
What about Haru? She's got a little yandere in her.
Jonathan Garcia Haru has the potential but she still hasn’t done anything yandere.
@@jonathangarcia5279 Haru isn't even a character lol
@@bladecial9394 You sir, have not played the dancing game.
The dating thing makes since in context with japanese dating cause alot of couples in Japan like to keep being a couple secret and goung that route helps keep the writing the same however would like more little details changed like
If you date chie and rise gets all on the protagonist chie could have a jealious reaction added
The junpei lap thing got me
Some maybe, but all? nah. If it was Chie or Naoto I could see that being the case, but if it was Yukiko or Rise they'd be flaunting it or at least mentioning it a lot.
@@nerobiblios4086 rise might not bring it up much in public mostly cause the idol image thing
Yukiko yea she seems like she would try to keep it secret but it will leak to all of inaba
That's what I want too. I think I can ignore the realism of what would happen if you date all the girls in your close interpersonal group IF they can just personalize cutscenes going forward after you commit to a relationship. Even if its just a line of dialogue stating that your romantic interest is pouting or seems kind of sad
Or if you choose dialogue involving a girl you're intimate with they don't freak the hell out and act all surprised like you're not dating. Maybe they throw you flirtly line or say something like "hey later" or even just a wryly smile so they don't give it away that you're involved.
@@crossdaboss8914 Rise would definitely bring it up among the investigation team lmao
So practically Aegis + Rise + Crazy would be a yandere persona character huh. That... makes so much sense that it's scary.
Fith daddy I get why you don't want to play Royal rn but I lowkey just want you to see the new stuff they did with Goro. I think they handled him really well.
DeanieWeenie they finally made him optional
SpenceDoesStuff How do you mean?
@@JayAreAitch it's no longer a social link that advances as the story progresses like the judgement or the fool arcana.
big boy Cool. That and the fact that he's actually on the boxart this time might make the twist a bit less obvious.
J H He was on the boxart before though anyways?
The one with Marie and having someone sass her back was an odd choice because of anyone who would not take shit especially when it’s the MC with her it would have been Rise. Like she is the aggressive one so why is she at her throat at one point and now tolerate her existence the next?
What I want from P6 is:
1: Twins as party members, boy and girl.
2: I would like to see a Tsundre and Yandere just to see what it would be like.
3: More events such as a Halloween party.
4: Splitting up/ pairing up with a selected person.
You mentioned having a love triangle in persona. I don't want to spoil much of royal but in the guide book of the game the developers did mention that there is a love triangle between Kasumi who has a crush on Joker and Akechi believe it or not 😅.
Oh fuck, this would be hilarious to see play out
Have the Tsundere or Yandere love the Magician, since they are always unlucky in love.
or the character that is always made fun of "Ryuji, Jumpei, and Yusuke(P4) "
I would be fine if they treated the Magician well like Junpei. I really can't see Yukari and Junpei being a thing tbh but I liked the relationship dynamic they had.
what about Chidori she's kind of a tsundere to Junpie isn't she?(i haven't watch too much anime to know)
@@randomguy-xo2mk nah lol she's a Kuudere.
This is unrelated but I feel like Akihiko and Mitsuru could be a good couple.
A potential simple way to have your romance picks seem integrated into the world is if they’re a party member, have them walk with you on your way to school and have them give their input on conversations you overhear or in scenes with the group together, have them sit next to you, at least in the context of P5
Not gonna spoil, I just want to state a truth.
Kasumi > Marie
A literal plate of vomit > Marie
Well to fair it not hard to be better then Marie.
-That's like comparing persona to sao-
:(
Agree 100 percent
I'd say add like 2 optional date events per month. Would make it feel more real and make you more invested in the relationship. I don't knowif there should be bonus for it, maybe social stats point.
Are you crazy?
Do you realize how much work that would take? Budget, time, people's feelings as well as their physical energy are factors that actually need to be accounted for.
I think so too. At least 2 optional dating events that are personalized to those characters. I know people talk about the one true waifu but that would give you the incentive to see all of these really cool dating scenes unique to THAT girl.
I'm cool with a pallete cleanser day you can throw the S-Link map away for one day just to enjoy that scene. Most of this stuff - if you're optimizing play - you don't get to enjoy until you're done ranking up everyone. So it's annoying you can't get any of those scenes because you're too busy trying to earn more rank ups with other characters.
Replaying P4G made me feel this way too. Can't compliment on Chie's yukata cause I gotta get those points for Rise for the rank up. Stuff like that.
@@Monty2289 Yeah, tho i feel playing a persona game trying to maximise your stats, rank, etc. Is missing the point of the game. Going at your pace, getting immersed in the world, making the choices you want, living as the protagonist, it makes your game feel unique and more personal than by just following a guide or trying to max everything out.
The P3 ending bit made me wear out my throat lol. Also, couldn't tell if Fither's sprite ever moved up and down or if I'm going mental lol
very slowly throughout the whole video the avatars for fither and flair move up and down
This made me go crazy because Fither bobs just a bit higher/lower than Flair so I couldn't tell if Flair was moving!
Now I want that bro ending in the remake
A persona video with Flair in this format? I almost feel nostalgic.
1:31 imagine they made Goro a Yandere for Joker
Oh no the fujoshis are coming
Nah Goro Tsundere
I love that so much
Can we go back to Ryuji and Joker getting shipped...please...
@@goroakechi6126 no, god damnit
The avatars moving up and down is hypnotizing
We already have a Yandere party member, they're called Goro Akechi. We already have a tsundere party member, they're called Third Semester Akechi.
I have an idea to incorporate a yandere into the game though it might be sh*t.
The Yandere could be a villain for the next game. Her obsession with the protagonist would be a motivator for there crimes. She would see the protagonist as this perfect being that stands above all and would try to make a "perfect world" for him. She would try and kill anyone that did him wrong and see your teammates as people who worship you as a god. At first, she would just be a background character giving subtle glances to you as she walks past, but as the game progresses she would stand out to you more and more until her social link starts (whether the social link would progress as the story progresses or on your own terms is up to your imagination and I wouldn't make her a romanceable option). Starting off the social link she would act like an innocent airhead, but as the social link moves forward you would start to notice her odd behavior. That behavior would be even more prevalent when she joins your team. As you piece together that she was the root of all of this.
We now go to her dungeon. Her dungeon would be some museum dedicated to you and all your exploits. This Museum would depict our exploits in the story, minor events like you entering your house signifying that she knows where you live, and even portraits of social you maxed out. The Yandere's thoughts would echo from the portraits badmouthing each one except her own( if you friendzone anyone she will be thankful that you were not "influenced" by the other girls). Her social link wouldn't be symbolized by a portrait but a shrine and when you get it she would gush about how you are so perfect and that you belong to her. Your teammates that you maxed out would like upon their respective portraits and reminisce about their friendship and your romance option would have a cute moment with you. If you went down the harem route this would be the point where your team finds out and all of your allies that you romanced would be furious with you if you didn't date any of your teammates (which I don't why that would the case) they would only be disappointed in you. Other than that it would be a normal palace.
For the boss fight, you won't be fighting her but instead, you would be fighting another version of you but with white, shining armor. This boss would be impossible in the first half because it would be immune to all your attacks and conditions. This is because of the way she sees you so the only way to beat it is to show her that you're are not invincible or perfect. Once that's done then the other you would be weak to everything. when he's defeated then the crew would talk some sense into her and show her the reality of the situation. When the dungeon is done she will turn herself in and the rest is history.
TL;DR: A yandere is the main villain of the game and would try to kill any one who did you wrong and her level would be dedicated to the choices you made on your journey.
Sounds like Cia to Link in Hyrule Warriors. Hell, Cia is kinda like a Shadow Self, if not the Izanami-no-Okami to Lana's Kusumi-no-Okami (Marie).
@@conspiracypanda1200 honestly yea that kinda fits
There is a path to recovery trust me with time you'll heal
This reminds me of Yuko who wanted to have a daughter with the P3 hero. She was jumping the gun.
@@kingoflions827 Yuko is the Team Manager.
Oh shit my bad I thought we were talking about Porfessor "Maya" I completely forgot about Yuko's existence.
King of Lions She wasn’t really a part of the main story. She was forgettable compared to the party members.
@@SouthSideOdaiba no she wasnt everyone loves her?
Weird, I felt Marie was more blunt than bitchy compared to other tsun characters.
Severa from fe:a played into that tsun archetype and often put down most of the 2nd gen deliberately because of her inferiority complex. Yet in Marie's case she thinks Chie looks good in green but she just wonders why both Chie and Yukiko stick to one colour of clothing. And when Chie looks hurt and asks if she was bothering Marie the whole time, Marie says that's not the case and she wonder's why Chie said 'friends' and which leads to Marie asking what does it mean to become friends.
I dunno, I came into the persona series later than most yet I ended up liking Marie despite her reputation with the fandom.
Personally what I would do is two things
1: Make it so that you can only date one of the party girls per playthrough
2: During sense where the group is together, *when possible* move the main character and there S/O next to each other and have either the main characters arm around the S/O, or have them hold hands, and just have the sense play out identically otherwise
koopatroopa125 I like the idea of holding hands when possible during the story scenes, as long as you don’t go overboard (i.e. it shouldn’t be every scene where it is possible).
It can work well in the more relaxed events, but I feel like it would be kinda inappropriate for more story related scenes. Plus like, it’s a kinda weird thing to do when you’re also hanging out with 5 other friends.
For most scenes I feel like it’s better to stop at the two characters being next to each, and reserve the handholding to more celebratory scenes, e.g. for p5 the beach scene, scenes in hawaii, the buffet, and the sushi har.
Unfortunately while the idea is really cool I don’t think this is possible to implement without a ton of effort, especially since the characters sometimes interact and you need to make sure the compositing looks good for every case...
@@tcoren1 Admittedly "when possible" may not have been the best choice of words. I wanted to convey when possible without destroying some aspects of the scene.
It would be hard for someone like Maokoto as she is often in the front giving presentations to the group, but for someone like Haru/Ann, holding hands while at LeBlanc while discussing plans is not that unreasonable. They're in stressful situations, and simply holding hands can act as a stress releif, so I don't see that being a problem.
It just feels like they could do more with your chosen GF (or BF if any future titles allow it).
Maybe walking to school together if your dating a character from the school the protag goes to (could easily be explained by them meeting up at the train stop for the last leg of the walk) or maybe (for example this could work for a character like Tae who lives close to where the MC lives) the character waking up the protag in the morning. Also maybe the best friend character could bring up relationships more throughout the game, and so long as you answer the questions the right way he'll catch on to who you like and some flags will trigger for them to bring it up more.
The Bro Only ending would be fire bro
I'd say itd be neat if they wrote / programmed the next game in a way that the scenes changed to reflect who you're dating or have turned down but I also want a p6 to come out before the next decade
Edit it would be funny if you could date multiple party members but if you're caught all the girls in the party treat you worse after and wont date you anymore
I've been waiting for this!
Wasn't Chihiro kind of yandere at the end of her social link? Or at least a terrifyingly jealous person. It made me not want anything to do with her
But Melchizedek is one of the best personas to have
always felt that relationships in Persona have just kinda been more and more of a hassle especially when the romance option delivers way more than the non romance option. Not gonna talk about the one thing in Royal cause that's like out there but just in general i feel like the stories are tight enough to not really need romance other than some superficial interest
Aww but I would love inari and futaba to date so they could be futanari
I never saw any appeal to this ship until this very moment. Thank you.
Nice pfp btw
It’s a joke search up the ship name
Lmao, don't
Futanari is the only good thing to come of people shipping those two.
You have entered the

someone please animate the Toriumi ending
"Who on earth is thinking about Persona at 3 AM?"
Flair: "Oh boy! 3 AM!"
Honestly the Yandere archetype might be a good reoccurring miniboss character, like she is a minion character who is maybe an optional social link and she is just into the main character from the beginning. Your social link level can determine the difficulty of her boss fights and if you manage to get her social link to 10 before a certain point in the story you have the option to just recruit her (under the condition that you aren't dating other girls) with her arc basically being that you soften her crazy side and eventually when she potentially is your girlfriend she has her character development done.
Naturally if you rank 10 her while dating another girl she just stops being evil and gets over her obsession with the protagonist, and just is your friend (maybe even finding someone else she likes since her psychosis still goes away in bond 10 thanks to character development) and if you don't rank 10 her at all she gets in the way of an attack meant for you and dies in your arms. Ya know like how Shinjirou can potentially live in Persona 3? (Except done more impactfully)
As for the tsundere archetype, honestly take a note from how Persona doesn't let you date people of the same gender and then have persona 6 give you a female MC (no male MC if this is to work) and pull a Junpei where the best friend character has a crush on a guy who you can't social link with but is a tsundere about it. People would still complain about not being able to date the tsundere party member but you have an excuse that "of course you can't date her, both of you are girls and neither are lesbians so no dating"
Honestly I can think of a bunch of ways to put in archetypes into Persona, but that is because I'm on the outside looking in on the development for the games.
Honestly one thing I'd also kinda like that'd be fun (but not feasable) is a Persona game where you are one guy and all of your party members are female, which could make the incorporation of romance bits and tropes into story easier, and even give you the option to just get a harem ending with all of the girls. Naturally having the status quo be maintained with you dating one or more of the girls can be done with optional dialogue and the like.
Edit: thought of a way to include a dateable tsundere party member, like the Yandere make her an optional party member that you can miss out on if you don't do her social link in time. Heck for extra spiciness make the Tsundere a miniboss like the Yandere and have the two have same arcana and no matter which one you pick you can't have both. (Naturally like the Yandere if you don't social link the Tsundere she would die, potentially being betrayed by the big bad whom she overly trusts) or heck make a secret branching path where through a combination of crazy stuff you can potentially only get away with a threesome with the now sane Yandere and the Deredere Tsundere and the two are still party members you can put in your party. Both still optional and heck to make it more happy if you bond 10 both but don't date either of them the two of them can be dating at the end of the game.
Your Persona and Jojo videos are really good. I’m not the healthiest person right now but your videos help me stay calm and become less stressed out. Please keep up the good work😄👍
My name better not come up in this
Yukari is an actually interesting character and people with bad taste hate this
Yesn't.
Yukari isn't bad, there's just a lot of other persona girls I'd take over her.
@@JayAreAitch I feel like people dislike yukari because they wrote her like an actual fucking person and people don't like that in their persona game.
hihihihi
My name not even mention
I just finished my second time watching the 4 persona 3 movies, lol.
Even though I have a huge Yandere Kink, that’s more busted to implement than any other character type, I’d like to see a weird jank ass attempt though
Why do you feel that way? why you like them?
Isn't there already a Christmas romance scene in Persona 3?
I was literally playing P5 Royal last night, and I'm dating Ann. I'm at the Hawaii trip, and the entire romantic relationship dynamic breaks down in multiple scenarios. First, Ryuji is still up Ann's a** and I can't say anything. He's still clearly objectifying her in front of me but MC doesn't say anything. Then you go to the night when Ryuji and Ann spend the night in your room and they ask you what your type is. A perfect opportunity to to say we're dating. None of the options that even imply it are given. I think the thing that came closest to acknowledgement was when Ryuji asked what I did on my last day of the trip, and I say I was with "someone" (Ann). But, Ryuji who's usually nosey, doesn't want to know with who and Ann doesn't say anything. Its not a super big deal that the game needs to acknowledge my dating choice, but it does kind of break the immersive experience when the game teeters around the subject in situations where it would/could be brought up organically. And it wouldn't even need to be one of the VO scenes. The group Texts scenes would work too. It just kind of feels like the game is "forcing" you to have this secret romance since it looks like no one knows and its never implied that you or your significant other tell anyone.
There is a canon persona love interest. His name is Jun Kurosu in Persona 2.
Only one of the developers think that's canon. Doesn't mean Jun and Tatsuya are actually the canon pairing
Funny way on spelling Maya
I'm glad i'm not the only one who dislikes how quiet characters keep their relationships in P games. I don't expect them to scream from high heaven about their relationship, but why not just let everyone know they're an item? They choose to keep it secret, but it seems kinda pointless if you ask me; if i were dating a classmate of mine in high school, i wouldn't hide it, i'd be like "yep, we're dating. It's no big deal whatsoever". Doesn't that kinda go against one of the themes of Persona: Accept yourself and work to make yourself the best you you can be? They way they portray it in Persona games, it almost seems like the characters are embarrassed to let others know they're dating the MC, and that seems kinda against the book if you catch my Tokyo Drift. Also, If i'm not mistaken, in Golden, they're more open about it during certain parts of the game; personally, i dated Chie and she gets flustered when talking during the Fireworks festival and on valentine's day, your friends practically leave the two of you be to allow you both to enjoy the day together.
Ok, Disclaimer I haven't played golden only the original P4 but you bring up some good points. The way I imagine how the characters could acknowledge that they are dating is that some time after you've completed the social link/confidant you'll have a scene that is added. For example if I had been on the development team for P5 I would have suggested that one scene is added for the news to break for the other party members maybe, and then at certain points in the story like maybe before you send the calling card for Shido you have a conversation with your GF as if this is make or break moment. Make the relationship and the situation at hand seem larger not just by who they are going up against but also a personal struggle that they as a couple have to deal with. Your thoughts Kifflom?
@@philipwirono3770 Sounds pretty good to me.
I was thinking, would it work if a future persona game had structured itself where your social links can only progress until a certain point and then wait for a significant moment in the main story that then impact the narratives in the side stories? After that moment in the narrative you are then able to romance them eventually. The issue I can think of is trying to make every social link relevant to the main story so it would make sense that this major story event affects them.
that would make me scared thinking if I can't max out said SLs in time
P3p and p5r already do this but I honestly found it kind of obnoxious from a gameplay perspective because it can be really unclear when the social link opens back up and how much time you have to do it or when it will be locked behind story again. Maxing charm to hang out with akihiko just to be met with two separate roadblocks in p3p has always felt obnoxious to me
If they added a yandere character i feel like she could be a perfect excuse for an extra dungeon if she isn't a main antagonist: the way i see it is
in the first few ranks, you learn about her other traits, keeping her obscessivness mostly invisible save maybe a few hints so romancing her doesn't feel weird.
Then comes the romance/friend decision: if you choose to romance her SL continue as normal but at some point maybe a random girl hit on you or there s a scene with a party member which triggers her jealousy.
At this point it depends on how dangerous you want her to be and if the game allows you to interact with reality with persona, and more importantly of the lesson the social link wants to teach.
If it s "obssesion is dangerous and you have to know when to end it" then i imagine either the authority or you would have to stop her in one way or another, and she would recognize where she went wrong, choosing to keep herself away from you for everyone s good. If it s a "Obsession is not right, but everyone can learn from their mistake" thenyou still would have to talk her to reason but maybe end it on a less bittersweet tone, if she makes significant amend
If you go friendship route then she snaps sooner but in a different way and i can see either the link break and her being replaced by someone or something else, or you keep the same aesops of the lovers route, maybe getting more details about the reasons behind her actions
Now of course this would turn persona shortly into an horror movie and is a load of work, but it s interesting to think about
Oh I forgot P5R existed for a second. Thnx for no spoilers on that, I got spoiled enough.
Akinari best husbando
Good to have Flair back
I don't want the actual story bogged down by romance. It probably can work, but just imagine that after the Phantom Thieves get setup and Ryuji starts yelling in anger, your party member girlfriend starts hugging you going "teehee"
I would rather have nothing.
I would hope Atlus is competent enough that they could incorporate a romance into the general story and still keep enough of the individual character of your party member girlfriend that she doesn't start hugging you going "teehee" during a big deal team scene.
If I recall, relationship shit in Japan is much more private. Apparently holding hands and even kissing are treated as acts as intimate as sex or something. Also, they prefer to keep such matters private it seems.
This is just based off of minor BS I found, but it IS kind of stupid that you dating at least a teammate doesn't seem to affect ANYTHING.
if p6 has a girl that love the protag it will be like toki from smtIV
I think it would be interesting to see a Persona game where relationships can change the outcomes of your game in multiple ways. It would be difficult, but I couldn’t imagine the amount of fun it’d be to finish a social link and realise that your game was different from someone else because of it. Like with Ryuji for example, we could’ve finished his confidant early and then later in the game, because his more level headed, a situation like (Spoilers for P5!!!!!! You’ve been warned) Morgana leaving or Okumura’s death wouldn’t happen. Or maybe we wouldn’t meet Haru and we’d meet someone else. It would be hard to flesh out these separate situations so I’d understand if it never came to fruition but I definitely think there should be some acknowledgment of social links in the main story or in a place like mementos where separate conversations happen at least.
The cheating/harem route always seemed like the joke route to me anyway so I'd rather have a committed romance that adds something to the main story. But idk, in general I hope they experiment more with P6 both story-wise and with the cast. I know that persona is traditionally a mostly highschool cast but it would be cool to have a story based around college students or adults. Like a Persona game where the MC is a depressed, 30 year old office worker would actually be kinda sick
I'm here hoping for a JoJo June announcement
Fire Emblem 17
Main Lord: This is my S Rank for political purposes, this is my S Rank for actual fucking, this is my S Rank because I just really like how the supports were written.
To really make the relationships good in persona make them have an impact on the rest of the game which can only work if you have a somewhat branching narrative or scenes that can vary on player choice in terms of relationship choice.
Maybe lock officially starting to date a character close to before the start of the conclusion
Hear me out. A yandere character can work in Persona if its only revealed at the end of their social link when you romance them and they fully open up to you that they were a secret yandere the entire time. Like it has to be a punishment/reward depending on how you look at it for going all the way to that point and ignoring all the subtle signs of that being the case with them. It can't work at any other point than the end of the romantic social link and all they'd have to do is keep her subtle about it and only slightly more overt in rare circumstances throughout the story depending on whether or not you chose to pursue her romantically and when you do it. Maybe even just on Christmas and Valentines day. But like the situation has to be a, "You flew right into my web and now its about time I feast!" type situation. Just as a spider doesn't chase a fly that avoids them she would have to not go full yandere unless she knows she's caught you and has you right where she wants you. Curiosity killed the Morgana if you know what I mean.
And its an easy fix for cheating on her too. Just make the gag cheating scene imply she castrated the protagonist and gave herself an injection so no one else could have him. The protagonist could live through that and continue the game like normal and it would still be a good hilarious/fucked up valentines day scene as you'd expect. Could even have a, "Protag kun is in fact the father 9 months later, but thats a story for another time." card pop up on screen afterwards followed by a scene of him just being at home holding his crotch in pain. Valentines day more like Vasectomy day filthy, unfaithful senpai. XD
This video should be named Rambling About Persona 3 Bro ending and typing F in the chat
Akinari is my favorite character in the entire franchise. I don't know if the "Dying man with no friends" is an archetype really, but his whole social link left me in tears 7 times in a row. I love him and I want to read his book as a piece of spinoff material.
I would enjoy more extra lines in the main story for dating companions and hopefully for the other teammates social links in story than the possibility of a harem option
22:32 exactly that’s what I was thinking when I saw that scene. The only one who’s actually somewhat in character is rise because she genuinely can’t stand the thought of not going with yu
I think a Yandere character could work if they were like Akechi in OG P5. Like, joins the party, but ends up being a boss.
Chie final boss fight is a giant steak
Junpei might smooth things over by doing such a bad job that it takes the heat off of you
I can’t believe Chie didn’t boot Marie in the box
We already have a tsundere: Adachi! I mean, have you SEEN P4U?
I mean for a tsundere or yandere maybe have the choice of romancing Early like rank 4 or 5 and having 2 branching s-links one where you teach them how to either be less of a crazy bitch and the other 1 which is just you romancing them
or both
only time persona 5 acknowledges who you romanced is the scene where ryuji asks if you would ever get married and if it's one of the party members they respond based on the answer you give.
it couldnt be that bad to make some alternate voice lines for different love interests
I think the scene in P5 where they ask if joker wants to get married and all the girls you are dating say something a little awkward but not to crazy, id luke more things like that
In Golden Yukiko knows that you're dating Chie by Valentine's day at least. Because she tells her "good luck."
Either way, romance in Persona is bad and half-assed, mostly because the Harem route ruins the opportunity for small scenes with X number of variables involving the main party. It's kind of a butterfly effect of variables that spirals quickly out of control because the devs are hung up on letting the player date everyone at the same time.
I can imagine yanderes on the game, something like adachi that you can do a social link but on the end she will turn into a crazy bitch because you declined her love or cuz MC pass a lot of his time with da bois
And like, her social link won't depend on the boss fight cuz she is crazy and won't care about the social link's level
Akechi IS the yandere of p5 if you think about it
Daily marie is a good character comment dont hate me she is not amazing but she fine
she's a good character, but everyone hates edgy teens
@@AlexanderMartinez-kd7cz unless their name is Minato Arisato/Makoto Yuki.
@@kara-mari9909 if you go around spamming the edgelord choices you reverse a lot of social links, I tried.
minato looks like an edgy teen but you can make him a normal person.
Nah Marie sucks and is by far the worst thing in Golden
@@joshuatywater5352 I disagree she has a great voice actor brings two amazing songs with her and the hollow forest is a very pretty looking dungeon. Also she is pretty cute :)
Junpei is best girl
On her SL, Yukari did act tsun for a moment.
Its relieved for the MC helping her, and at the next moment "I didn't ask for your help!"
24:26 Awakening always makes a video better
I hope if they remake persona 3 junpei is voiced by Vic :)
@@brauwow it's kind of gone away to be honest
@@brauwow ya all the false alligations and stuff are off everyones radar
I hope so
14:12 There is that rooftop scene when Junpei will mention what girl you romanced.
should they add dating into smt v? maybe that it is why it is taking so long.
They're adding Hot Coffee mechanics to let you fuck Lilim
@@JayAreAitch Yanderedev is very excited for that
Can't wait to date my waifu Kikurihime
Ooh~
It's worth the wait if that mechanic is in the game
@@JayAreAitch That's hot
Flair's Adachi voice caught me so off guard. Adachi impressions are always so close yet so far, it's terrifying.
Persona 6 needs to actually have an REAL love triangle, and no P5R didn't have that because that isn't even a love triangle between Akechi, Joker, and Kasumi.
Akechi is definitely a yandere
he... he tried to kill your whole team and you
Make cheating runs work like the solo run until Christmas
I look away for a few seconds and Fither is on his knees
I hope you have any persona theories that could be interesting. Not as a joke but an actual conversation to have with your freinds.
Like the possibility of the p5 cast could one day or have already help door-kun by changing the peoples will to live. I really like your smt And persona discussions.
The series has been trying to find ways to either punish or guilt you more and more as the series goes on if you’re cheating (p4g’s individual confrontations, you actively miss out on good sp items in p5r if you do it, etc) and considering persona is one of the only dating sim adjacent series that even allows long term cheating I don’t think it’d be weird to see it removed for the sake of story cohesion. However if p6 leans into full anime tropes then the idea of cheating isn’t going anywhere since it allows for harem fantasies
When *deleted **_P5R_** bad ending scenarios* are the only time you're allowed to go for a harem and it not horribly backfire with your being handed your ass, it's safe to say they don't want harem.
Fumny thing around the end of the video they talk about changing certain scenes in persona from where your dating a certain character which is something they slightly do like in the fireworks festival if you date one of the main girls in p4 and mention going off alone (i forgot how the scene goes) and one of them blushes and yosuke eventually gets that hint saying that their both dating but doesn't mention it to yu and in persona 5 ryuji brings up marriage and if ren/akira wanted to get married and you say yes and are dating the main girls then they eaither get flustered or intrigued of what you said
