No. No it won't. If it's going to be anything like MK9 or Injustice, it will be fun but not worthy of any "greatest of all time" kind of language.
Right around the time of the final boss fight with Glados.
I have conflicted feelings. I like the way it looks, but I don't need real-time combat in my Persona games. Combat systems have never been a strong-point in any Atlus game, and they're at their best playing it simple so I'm a little nervous that they're throwing something off here. Too early to worry though.
Is the challenge in the boss fight to not be bored to death?

Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobileCombat isn't real-time; It's still turn-based. It's just a lot more flashy than it used to be. They didn't show combat yet. When you fight, you actually transform into Personas. What they showed was a bit of exploration and some stealth sequences. They showed you talking to your Navigator and some dialogue choices in Japanese. Combat engine will still be turn based, but the presentation of it is going to be off the charts!
Edit: 'Kay... slightly off. Watched the trailer again... You apparently --CAN-- transform into your Persona, as the Main character does at the end of the trailer, but you don't always. Here is an actual combat screen:
More dynamic than previous Personas, but not real-time. Here you see two characters fighting Pyro Jack and Sandman. You see the typical character portraits and HP/SP at the bottom.
There is no need to worry --AT ALL-- ! ! ! If the incredible production values of the game so far --AND-- the superbly high quality of Persona Q aren't indications enough that this team is one of the most talented RPG teams out there right now, then I don't know what to say!
**...other than I feel an Official Topic coming on!**
Better Call Saul starts tonight!
I'm got no concerns about the story or characters. Hell they've had like 7 years to come up with all of that, and the stories of Arena and Q show that they know exactly what people like about these types of characters. I still worry a little about the combat though. That's always been the weakest aspect of the series. It's not bad at all, just a bit generic. I'd like to see them advance that a little bit, but I'd also like them to not go too crazy and end up with a FF8 draw system.
I was actually making a World of Warcraft (WOW) joke.
Have you tried this yet, Travo? MS most likely won't deactivate your XBL account if you log into the site every so often.
Yes log in and send out some troll messages...that will keep things going smoothly.
Not yet. I've had issues with the old email I've linked to the account. I'll check on it soon.
Right over my head.
Yes and I can't wait. Also the second episode will be on Monday.
Just been playing this, this weekend...
**and obsessing over P5 footage!**

What about you, Wild Cards?

I've been playing Hyrule Warriors this weekend.
I'm finishing up with Starcraft 2
And I started the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare campaign. Looks really nice on the PS4, pretty big leap over Ghosts, and plays very smooth.
