Sadly yeah persona at this point is like where kendrick is where it's gonna be real hard to top this. Everything in persona 3 was built on perfected and exceeded expectations with P4. Hopefully this isn't the series magnum opus and somehow do the same with P5.

I don't know if they can top the game storywise, but the gameplay can be improved

Once the expectation is planted it becomes impossible to top it. When it catches you out of nowhere then the quality can be appreciated.

People will look extra hard at Persona 5. It'll be graded much harsher than Persona 4 was.

This game is hard as hell and be having me frustrated on the damn vita

 

[Ciggavelli]

I never played any of these games. One of my best friends swears by them. Do I need a vita or can I emulate this shyt? If I need a vita, I guess I'm passing.

 

[Prince Luchini]

Well the definitive version is only on the vita but you can still play P4 on ps3 if you have one.

The original version is a PS2 game

Yeah, PCSX2 should run the game fine

 

[Ciggavelli]

Yeah, PCSX2 should run the game fine

Might have to check it out then. I'm trying to get back into console RPGs. Gotta beat Xenoblade Chronicles first though

I have faith that P5 can at least match P4 overall. I say that because despite Persona 4 Golden being quite possibly my favorite game of all time, I can still find things I had issues with that are perfectly rational. Dungeons, world exploration, presentation(better graphics and immersion), and more social links that actually affect some of the scenes.

You probably didn't walk into Persona 4 Golden expecting it to be what it became to you though. I know I didn't play Persona 4 expecting it to be one of the greatest JRPGs ever created. I was blown away by it. Another thing is when something is unexpectedly great you're more willing to overlook its flaws.

Persona 5 people will be far more critical of. Once the hype hits people raise their expectations.

The same effect can be observed by The Last of Us. Almost nobody went into that game expecting it to be arguably the greatest PS3 game made. If anything people were mildly curious how Naughty Dog would tackle survival horror. Sure with the developer's pedigree people thought it would be a good game but it was able to surpass their expectations because the expectations weren't so high to begin with.
