Been playing Persona 3 FES and it's okayish.. Such a far cry from 4 though.Beat Dragon Age Origins for like the 4th time. Taking a break before I run through Awakenings again. Been playing a lot of Persona 3 Portable. Lovvvvvin it
. The portable version is similar to P4 but the lack of cutscenes and 3D modeled characters kill it for me.
That's how I was feelin too but I'm over it now. I put like 100 hrs into DAO n other WRPG shyt recently and this is clicking more so than anything else right now.Been playing Persona 3 FES and it's okayish.. Such a far cry from 4 though.
If you played FES after playing P4 Golden you'd see what I mean. You can't control the party members, the menu's aren't as intuitive(You can't easily switch to other party members stats and equipment status unless you physically are in front of them at Tartarus and press X) and other annoying shyt.
Oh yeah dude. I beat P4G a couple times earlier this year. Are the differences between P3P and FES that big?
annoying cause the game is more challenging?
Biggest difference is in P3P you can play as a female MC, the battle system lets you control all characters and higher difficulty modes.
That's not a challenge, that's a hassle. The fact that the portable version of Persona 3 has a much more intuitive menu system says it all. Many times I'd be outside at Paulonia Mall fresh out the weapon shop and I'd have weapons but due to the design of the game, I'd have to go all the way to Tartarus and then "press x" in front of the character who's items I want to switch out. that's annoying. Why can't I just equip my items and look at stats like most other RPG games without having to physically have the person there? If you're talking about the actual more in depth battle system than I agree it's better since physical attacks have three categories but that's not what I was talking about. It's just how clunky the menu's are that annoys me.
Story in P4 terrible and drawn out?? The story was very interesting and it being a detective story made it all the more relatable. I also found the whole "face your self" theme much more strong. It felt like there was two stories going on in the game and whenever someone faced their shadow and accepted it it felt like it went along with the game and the whole "strengthen yourself through bonds" shyt Igor was talking about. In persona 3 whenever someone "faced" a challenge of theirs and their Persona evolved it just felt idk mechanical?? Like it just felt like something that the game would make up as an excuse. The context was very weak imo like when Ken and Akihiko's Persona evolved after
Don't even get me started on the horrible abomination they call Tartarus. 
Persona 3 FES is one of my most favorite games with Shadow Hearts Covenant and SMT Nocturne. I cant let nikkas slander it like this
We can just agree to disagree then. Cause I like Tartarus and the fact the group can split up to do shyt in their, and get tired and stuff. Yeah it was the same thing, but thats what the Full moon missions were for. I like most the characters in P3 better. Chie was an annoying looking dike, teddie was cool until he joined..squeaky feet? really? that shyt was annoying. And im not a homophobe but a lowkey gay dude with a chair? P3 had A MOTHAFUKKIN dog, Ken who was a little boss and ShinjiroThat's not a challenge, that's a hassle.

The story in 3 is very drawn out breh lol. I'm 70 hours into Persona 3 and the story doesn't really kick off until about September/October and even then it gets very formulaic(Wait until full moon of each month and destroy shadow.) The story in Persona 4 takes a back seat often with the characters and other events taking the stage at times but the character performance and dialogue is so well done that it doesn't bother me.
The story in P3 is way more serious so If someone is into dark settings I can see why they'd prefer it but the pacing of the game ruins the story for me. I always felt like I wanted to hurry up and get through the day to get on to the story which brings me to a another point... The characters... The characters imo are straight up boring compared to Persona 4 characters then again it might be due to me just preferring the more jovial fun theme of Persona 4.
I played Persona 3 FIRST so it's not like I played 4 and then 3 and saying 4 is better but to me... There's hardly anyone in Persona 3 that's interesting. Junpei is like a cornier version of Yosuke, Yukari is a bland version of Chie, Fuuka is like that band girl from Persona 4(Ayane) and Mitsuro is like a classier version of Yukiko. The only characters I kind of liked in Persona 3 is my nikka Aigis and Shinjiro somewhat. The S links in Persona 3 were also wack imo. The dialogue just wasn't hitting me like they were in Persona 4. Junpei and his constant simping of Chidori was cringe worthy.
The music in Persona 3 is also far more repetitive. The fact that there's only one theme song after school all the way until you reach a new season is wack while Persona 4 had a song for the different weather patterns. As you can see,lol I put a lot of times into both games and imo Persona 3 is just wacker to me.
It's alright but I just find the flaws way too glaring after coming off of Persona 4.
The MC, Aigis and even Strega was bad ass.
Shut your filthy whore mouth. DAI will make all other RPS look like trash
Lol. I can't be beefing with Persona fans.
and ima keep shootin
I love that game.
