This. This a thousand times.

Bwhaha, on earth is this word "reneed" I used? Oops.

It's going to be pretty hard to top Persona 4's cast I think, they had quite a bit of chemistry.

As the last two Persona games seem to cover current culture in Japan (Suicide, Sexuality, rural life?) I wonder what the focus will be on this time around.

College maybe? Would give the player the ability to choose what classes they attend, would have a bit older, more mature cast, and would be a different environment than the previous games. Almost certainly won't be this, but still!

By the way, new Himdasiy Persona 4 comic up (spoilers and hilarity ahoy)

That'd be a pretty good idea. There's probably a whole bunch of stuff they could do with Japanese College life.

They're starting? 2 years after Persona 4 came out, and they're STARTING? This better be an astounding follow-up.

Well it's not like there hasn't been a bunch of other SMT games in the interval. Devil Summoner 2, Devil Survivor and Strange Journey just off the top of my head.
So it's not like they've been lazy, they just gave the series a short break.

But yeah university sounds interesting. Unless they decide to not do the social link thing, then a lot more options open up. The social link system makes schools/university pretty much the only real choice. Be hard to make the system make sense with someone working full time.

And yes, Kanji is awesome.

Yes, this really needs to be implemented. Especially after they allowed me to do it in Devil Survivor. I don't think I can ever go back to random selection.

And they need to stick with the Loki from Persona 4, the one from 3 looked like crap.

There need to be personas with immunities to status effects and stuff, sort of like with the elements.

I need to be able to be a guy and date guys.

Maybe have the little social stat boosting things as minigames? Do poorly and you just get the regular boost, but do well and get an extra boost? Just so long as the minigames are fun.

Other than that: Keep doing what you're doing guys!

Agree with all of these. If you want to date a guy you should have the option. And the ultimate persona it unlocks should be Mara.

The Loki from Nocturne and Persona 3 looked like Magus, I thought. I can't really complain against that.

Things I'd like to see in P5

Return of the Rumour System from P2, it has so much potential to create hilarious situations
Skill allocation from Devil Survivor
More Personae, 170-ish isn't enough xP
A change from the battle system to keep it fresh, I loved P3/4's and Nocturne's, so I wonder what they'll bring out this time.
Personally, I'd like the first analyse of an enemy to require an ability (see Nocturne), but on future lookups, it'll be like P3/4's. Alternatively, I've heard interesting things about Strange Journey's method.
