[P4AU] News & Gameplay Discussion

[Luminos564]

Would you say he's

punny?

You know, this is going to be interesting to hear in English. See, English Teddie tends to use bear-based puns a lot so him going up against another pun master is going to be something to look forward to.

Btw, do we even have a name of it yet?

Nope. Your guess is as good as mine on that. I am making an educated guess that it could be one of 2 things:

-Tsukuyomi, because of the moon-theme in Sho's attack names and because it is the only name of the popular Shinto gods currently not in use.

-Nyarlathotep/JOKER/

Malevolent Entity

due to the rather "evil" vibe Persona Sho has.

I was talking about the persona. Btw, do we even have a name of it yet?

Not officially, though since one of his moves is called "Tsukuyomi" a lot of people are thinking it's that. I kinda doubt it though

Spectulation:

Sho's Persona is Nyx or Sho himself is Nyx's Avatar. I also heard some rumors that Sho wants to beat up Yu and the rest of Investigation Team to save S.E.E.S., especially Aigis. Make that what you will

There are no "rumors." Only made up crap spewed by others.

[Rayzor]

I know all the images are still blurry as all hell

But the mask and striped pants make it look like a black version of apollo to me

I know this is an edit from a guy on mayonaka midnight, but I get a feeling should adachi reuse story CG for his character select

we have no time to prepare ourselves

again, this is just an edit, but this was well done so I wanted to show it for fun :P

No kidding

though admittedly Sho being obsessed with Aigis WOULD be funny considering his voice actor is the husband of Aigis'.

[Suzaku]

Suzaku, I know this is bit late, but where did you find the movelist for Persona!Sho?

It was (briefly) leaked when they started testing the Player's Guild site in mid-November. The pages were quickly blocked, but they're still cached on Google. The image links for the command icons are broken, but viewing the source indicates what buttons they're supposed to be.

Edit: And here's a decent shot of his Persona, for those who haven't seen it.

Interesting. It really does have a coat draped on its shoulders like Kanji does. But it also has a robe of sorts underneath. The blade is also not a katana like I previously thought. Instead its a black sword with a serrated edge (name escapes me at the moment) not unlike the ones normally carried by a really nasty villain. Not too sure what the half-covered face signifies though.

Still, image is awesome. Thanks Suzaku.

[Koopa_Klawz]

After getting a better look at his face, I'm starting to think it really is Nyarlathotep since he has other forms that cover half his face. http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110817020355/megamitensei/images/2/22/Kandori%27s_Persona.jpg

I still don't think the similarities it has with Reverse Apollo can be a coincidence.

[Dazardz]

Could somebody remind me of when this game is released in arcades? It's not today is it?

[Starlight777]

Thursday is the day it releases. We should be seeing streams pop up by around next midnight or so lol.

Maybe something like a.... Midnight Channel?! XD

[SoWL]

I don't think his Persona has a coat on his shoulders, it looks more like a tabard to me. I mean, he already wears a piece of clothing on the front, it only makes sense for his coat/cloak/whatever to be a part of it.

[kosmos badgirl]

Streaming of the game right now.

[FluxWaveZ]

This launch stream is very, very boring. Only thing we've got out of it so far is that Persona-less Sho will be the only character available upon the arcade release. And I guess P4A brainwashed Rise, who might be a Shadow this time, is back if that wasn't known before.

[Vulcan422]

Score Attack Mode has 5 difficulties: Safety, Easy, Normal, Hard, and Risky, each with 10 stages and their own courses. The final 2 opponents are unknown.

So far, it seems like the "Unlimited" versions of characters do not appear. Although that might be reserved for harder difficulties.

Junpei's 10-out automatic super is indeed Bropei Install. Gives him a golden glow and everything.

[Tokkan]

Oh crap, did Junpei's victory quote against Sho just confirm Chidori to be alive?

[Starlight777]

Ok I guess I'll wait for raw footage to pop up later on today. This premium member stuff kinda sours the viewing.

[Vulcan422]

Normally I would say just keep refreshing but then I remembered this.

I have the patience of a bull.

Well that works for now I guess I'll just deal with it lol.

[Vulcan422]

SHADOW KANJI ON STREAM NOW GOGOGO

He changes into his fundoshi as his end-of-match winpose. YES.

Shadow Teddie's winpose has him turning his back to the screen, then turning back around with his evil black eyes from P4.

Arcade opening?!! YES.

[FluxWaveZ]

Bunch of caps here and here.

Also, that arcade opening is AWESOME. Way better than P4A's.
