If that's the case, I hope it doesn't end up broken. Every time I see this game mentioned somewhere, I can't help but remember games like HnK, and Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. I know that second one isn't an ArcSys game, but I can't help but think of it with the idea of Personas floating about.

Either way, I'M SO EXCITE!

I wonder if you will be able to change up certain things like the looks of weapons with the costumes. Nothing changed statwise but just feel like bringing a golf club into the fight or special Chie boots of Galactic Punting are in order.

Silly wishing aside, I am super hype about this game and I wonder how the arcana are going be incorporated into the gameplay mechanics. By what I'm assuming, I think the P4 protag will be the jack-of-all-trades character like Ryu. Chie's going to be your close-range beast, Yosuke is going to probably be good at mid and close with his knives, Kanji's going to be the slower midrange hard hitter, and Yokiko is going to be your long-range fighter that will be like a Fire-based Storm or something. My fingers are crossed as I hoped ASW does a good job with this.

I want them to add more slots in general lol

It's still being developed so the number isn't concrete at all. So he's to hoping for now. XD

Being how it's a new fighter at the average for said titles is 10, I think it's safe to bet the initial roster has all but been completed. We can maybe expect a bonus character or 2 but anything beyond that is up to DLC, which is more than likely in the decision of Atlus.

Well that's a bit disappointed, but that's still a small little feature that's cool, at least they're paying attention to detail.

I still want to know who those last 3 slots will be filled with...more FES characters (Metis would be sorta cool), find a way to work other 4 characters, maybe other SMT stars?

Keep in mind that those screens are from the Arcade Release, and this is Arcsys we're dealing with. Chances are that we are going to get 3+ characters for the 360/ps3 release a few months down the line.

HnK had 10, BB had 12, Aqua has 10 (?), so you're right on the money. I retract my statement. Still hype though, I'll wait for the first few gameplay vids before I put anymore care into this yet.

So hype. I'm really hoping a P1 or P2 character is gonna make it in. I don't care if it's only one. Give me Lisa or Eikichi, please. 8(

But if not, I'm maining Yosuke, or Yukiko/Rise/Koromaru if they make it in.

I only know about Persona because of Shoji Meguro but count me in as hyped. Atlus + ASW + Shoji + (maybe) Ishiwatari, you can't go wrong. If it's a fighting game supported by ASW then count me in.

Since I don't know shit about Persona, how many playable characters are we looking at if the game is still alive and kicking for some balance patches/new disc releases?

I barely know much bout the series too, but from what I heard around 10 characters in this game.

That seems to be everyone's guess so let's go with it but I was asking that if the game is good enough to receive balance patches/new disc releases, then how many characters are we looking at based on the playable characters of the Persona 3/4 series?

You have to keep in mind this is a collab, so it's not a matter of wheter it's good or not, it's a matter of how long Atlus wants to allow Arc to continue it.

But if for some reason they decided to allow Arc to expand you could easily see close to 20 characters following canon (more if we allow dead characters in)

Not counting villains, people who are normally kinda dead and characters with scan type personas, 13 I think. However some of the kinda dead characters and villains are kinda plausible picks for a slot.

14, I forgot akihiko, That's probably it though. Maybe.

14-20, huh? Damn, maybe I'm getting my hopes a little too high but I sure as hell hope that Atlus gives ASW the green light to expand on this fighting series.

Even Ougon got expanded, then why not this?

Because Ougon was made by it's original creators, they had complete control over what they wanted to do. Just think, how many games like this do you ever see get expanded upon after their initial release?

Again this will all come down to if Atlus wishes to see further development into this project, which isn't to say success/failure is the only key element.

Also Ougon still has the best tag system ever, just saying.

I hope they add Maya with her dual pistols, copypaste Noel's moveset, and have her shout "Let's Positive Thinking!" while spamming 2D.

*Is ok with this*

I'm excited for this game. Maining P4 MC.

Fingers crossed for tandem combos and lots of poses.

We all want this to become Atlus Fighter Z. Like Aquapazza just with Atlus

Just to clarify, you mean you want a big cross-property dream match, right? With Raidou, Demi-Fiend, and other assorted SMT characters?

Gameplay wise, I want this thing to be like Jojo's.

Also, I want MC's taunt to be: "Calm down" *puts on glasses*. And then he can throw off the glasses for his level 3, where he summons ZA WARUDO.
