Is the original language Chinese? Do not see that often.

It is chinese. Art is really gorgeous :3 One of my favorite

I haven't delved into Persona yet, I probably should, I see it everywhere.

If you have PS4 or vita you can buy 1-5 from PS online store. 1-2 have very old graphics (the second game "Innocent Sin" and the sequel "eternal punishment" are my favourite). I have a love hate relationship with the first game. It's good but has a crappy battle system, you will be dying a lot even on the first stages of the game (just like in bloodborne or Dark Souls). 3rd game was the first made in 3D. The only thing I didn't like is that if you want to play the full story (which is Persona 3 Fes that has the original story "journey" plus the epilogue "the answer") you will need PS2 (fes is not available on other platforms as far as I know). I only played Persona 4 Golden (enhanced version of the original Persona 4 game for PS vita, new characters, events etc). Comparing to the 3rd game (gloomy and depressive at some points) this one has more positive atmosphere, the characters really work as a team.  People praise a lot the 5th game I haven't played that yet :/

It is definitely unique. I am very intrigued about its story.

Too bad I have no PlayStation system at all. XD I could watch playthroughs of it, probably.

But it will not be the same as playing :/

Yeah, I know... :( That's the best I could do right now. No time as well.

Another thing that you can do is to watch anime based on the Persona games. They pretty much repeat the stories.

Yeah Beloved has to be one of my favourites too and it's far from over. We are only just really learning about Wei's background and Ying seems to have a lot behind hers that hasn't been touched upon. The age gap is a bit miffy. I have no problems with Ying being 16 to be honest but an 18 year difference feels a bit questionable.

You can't get Persona 5 on the Vita as far as i know by the way.

Yes but the other 4 you can. All 5 should be available for SP4

Ah by 1-5 you were including Eternal Punishment?

Like Danganropa? I watched the first anime of that and my brother actually played the game. The game seemed a lot better than the anime.

16 is probably the lowest without serious ethical debates, even though there still could be some. It also depends on the age of the other party. Thinking back when I was 16, which was not too long ago... I knew so much less than I do now.
And the whole double standard thing. Wei, being a female, makes it easier to stomach.

I usually count innocent sin and eternal punishment as one. Have both of them on Vita.

It's all good, i got a bit excited for a second haha.

I really need to get a ps4 so i can replay it again this time with the zodiac system.

It's tough with 16 - 18 year olds, they're too old to be treated as children but too young to be treated as adults. Treat them as children and you alienate them and they rebel, treat them purely as adults and they're more likely to make stupid decisions. It was 20 years ago when i was a 16 year old haha.

My brother is 16, born in 2000, just like the character, and I felt... weird when I read that at first. If a 34 year old slept with... shivers... I would not even want to think about that. I'm in my early 20s, so 16 is recent in my mind.

You are right about how teenagers feel at that age. Insecurity is a big issue and causes many outbursts and stupid decisions. I would have told my 16 year old self to not be so stupid. You think you know more than you actually do. I still have tons to learn now and am well aware that I have not experienced much in life, comparably.

Nevertheless, I still enjoy the story. There is a lot to learn about the characters, so it has my interest.

It is great to be able to talk to people in this forum with different backgrounds and life experiences. I like reading different perspectives. :) The wonders of the Internet... taken with caution, of course.

Es0teric, what are your favourite games (it looks like you do play)?

Like Danganropa? I watched the first anime of that and my brother actually played the game. The game seemed a lot better than the anime.

mpgpeg, I am not familiar with that game. But if interested you can try Persona 3 anime. It consists of 4 movies which is not a lot comparing to other series (like for example first adaptation of Persona 4 game has 25 episodes+OVA, a film The Factor of Hope, the second adaptation has 12 ep+OVA, also there are musicals). As you can see it will take a lot of your time to watch all of it so better play the game :3 and I agree that games are better than anime or movie adaptations.

Haha, has there ever been a successful video game movie adaptation? I don't think so...

Once I get a PlayStation system or figure out an emulator, then I'll play it I guess. XD

Added to the list. I will probably end up playing these games in like a year when I do not have to study for exams. But noted for the future! :D As well as Persona.

Hmmm

RPG: Suikoden 1 & 2
Horror: Silent Hill 1 - 3
FPS: Deus Ex series
Point & Click: Dark Seed
Platformers: Metroid & Castlevania

You'd most likely have played all of these already

Okay, thanks. :)

From the main discussion forum...

Cool, you were an ex-film student? That explains your vast knowledge of the medium. Are you an "ex-film student" because you switched majors or because you graduated with that major?
