DevilTrigger Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 Post 1000, woo. Posted some further impressions focused on Aigis in the loketest thread
Starlight777 Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 (edited) Air control? Why do I have this feeling she might be Arcsys take on Sentinel with her playstyle. And she punishes random Persona summons easily? That sounds pretty scary. Edited December 6, 2011 by Starlight777
Ryudrake Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 I might be a little late to the party but is there no mention of Rise Kujikawa being playable? They technically have everyone form P4 but her.

Kronikhall Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 No she's merely giving out tips like usual.
Tari Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 Actually, does she cheer on her sempai during battle? Haha.
Kronikhall Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 Actually, does she cheer on her sempai during battle? Haha. yep haha. it's gonna be weird with her not taking sides here. ex: Tee-hee! Senpai! That was soo cool! (Protagonist dodges attack) Oh, nice move, Yosuke-senpai! (Yosuke dodges attack) You hit its weakness, Yukiko-Senpai. You struck its weak-point, Chie-Senpai! Enemy Down. Show it what you've got, Kanji-kun! Two enemies down. Do it again, Chie-senpai! Enemy down! That's the spirit, Teddie! (Teddie downs enemy) Enemy defeated. Go for broke, Teddie! (Teddie defeats 1 enemy) Enemy defeated. Keep it up, Yosuke -senpai! (Yosuke defeats 1 enemy) You're on a roll, Sempai! Two defeated. (Protagonist defeats 2 enemies) Wow, Naoto-kun! You defeated two enemies. (Naoto defeats 2 enemies) Three enemies defeated! You're so cool, Senpai.
DevilTrigger Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 If she cheers for Yu-senpai specifically more than everyone else, she's getting turned off every match I play >__>. Added some more impressions/notes in my post in the loketest area, mostly talking about the game and Yu, Yosuke, Chie and Yukiko with some other stuff sprinkled in
LunaKage Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 I saw Chie link a 5A after a grounded Rampage > Skull Cracker in the corner... I've been in a hype coma ever since.
pktazn Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 So Rise gives off tips in addition to being the announcer? ... At least last time I paid attention I thought I heard she was the announcer lol.
DevilTrigger Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 I think how it works is if you choose to have her, her pic will pop up and she'll do commentary but if you don't you'll just get the default narrator who just says stuff like counter, fatal, w/e.
shtkn Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 i thought i heard a generic male announcer voice? i dunno, sound was pretty muffled and it could have come from a different game.
Katsu78 Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 That's what Trig was talking about in the above post. Happens if you turn Rise off
DevilTrigger Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 If you wana hear the generic male announcer, our YT channel has those gameplay samples, where his voice is all over. Beats the heck out of CS2/EX announcer, that's for sure

Beats the heck out of CS2/EX announcer, that's for sure I haven't heard any engrish out of this announcer so far, I like that. On a side note I'm hoping there's some official videos released showing what the other 5 characters can do, like with what they did for the first 5.
Akiro Posted December 7, 2011 Author Posted December 7, 2011 So how do you guys feel about Naoto's instant kill moves?
FormerlyUnknown Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 i think it gives naoto a fun little mini-game to her fighting style, like playing pheonix wright in mvc3. You could win the match normally, but it sounds like naoto's not that strong a fighter when you compare her to the likes of say chie, so the fate system gives her that sense of being very dangerous if you're not being careful against her. It sounds like it could also be used strategicly; the lower you get the fate gauge in the first round, the easier it is to get it in the second, so you get it as low as you can (maybe 0), save the kill, and make the next round that much easier. and since it's naoto and hamaon/mudoon were her abilities it fits perfectly, i would even say it would be weird if she couldn't do it.
Starlight777 Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 So how do you guys feel about Naoto's instant kill moves? Since she has to work for it and plan for when to use it, I think adds some nice depth to her gameplay and strategy.
Tari Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 The fate gauge reverts to 7 after a round is over, if the opponent is below 7 at the end of the round. That said, it's apparently difficult (but possible) to combo into her insta-kills, so it forces a burst from the opponent if they get tagged by a good combo and they're in danger state. If Naoto messes up her combo and the opponent invulns through/jumps over/blocks Hamaon/Mudoon, the fate gauge reverts to 14, and the entire countdown has to start over again. Remember that she also has to have her Persona active to even tick the gauge down at all, so once her persona is disabled, she basically becomes a weaker zoning character with mediocre damage output.
Starlight777 Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 If she misses or it's blocked she has to start all over again? My god it sounds like her instant kills are as practical as an Astral Finish.
FormerlyUnknown Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 what if her counter's not at 0 at the time when you use it? does it still restart or are you not even able to use them?
Tari Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 what if her counter's not at 0 at the time when you use it? does it still restart or are you not even able to use them? It ticks down the counter if you use land the move when the counter's not at 0, I believe. Not entirely clear on that, but it only reverts to 14 when you whiff the actual IK (ie: opponent must be in 0-fate danger state). If she misses or it's blocked she has to start all over again? My god it sounds like her instant kills are as practical as an Astral Finish. Except it takes 50 meter and you can combo into it when the opponent is at any amount of health, as long as they've got 0 fate counters remaining. :P
