Persona 5 ROYAL launches March 31st in NA
- Thread starter Shining Star
- Start date
They had the chance to change it the first time, and they didn't. Considering the ways Atlus has managed to make this version even grosser, they ain't changing shit.
Golden had
2 new social links
New personas
New group events
A extra dungeon
An epilogue
In terms of total content, yeah Royal has more though it doesn't get as many new group bonding events as Golden did, but has more of other
From what I've heard it's mainly the last semester and ending that changed, and in places not even for the better?
My understanding is that it's similar to Golden in the amount of content changed, if a bit less.
I'm mainly worried they're not going to touch up the shoddy translation or homophobic areas.
The Judgment company that did the FIGS localization are a separate company from SEGA and Atlus. So one can hope they get contacted again.
Yeah this is kind of the biggest disappointment for me. Like the game is still coming state side 5 months after the japanese release despite a majority of the content already having been translated. March isn't even a surprising time frame for it either, so the countdown feels a little "really? That's it?"
There is more added content on P5R than golden unless you gonna knock R for lack of scooters
They had a countdown and everything.
It's hard to be hyped for something when;
a) it's already out in Japan
b) we already knew what they were going to announce
c) the date itself sucks
And they do this every time.
That joker mask as opposed to the t-shirt japan got or the DOPE ass bag from the limited edition of the original release? Big ew
Had hoped that February would be true in order to get an early April release for Sakura Wars. Oh well....
The main difference is that most of the new content is backloaded when compared to how Golden handled it. There's a lot of smaller, new bits of content spread throughout, but the only BIG changes are all part of the setup of the new characters and new semester content, while other things are a bit more minimal. That said, pretty much everything it integrated much better and is of a much better quality than Golden's offerings (in my opinion), and the things that are not so great are not really enough to take away from how much was actually really enjoyable.
I'm hoping they touch up the localization, but they didn't cut anything that was in the original game, both for better and for worse.
Wait! Stop! You cannot express your disappointment in their marketing madness.
The blatant instances of homophobia not being removed & [Insert certain thing that was added to the Kamoshida dungeon that could be spoilery here] were ultimately deal-breakers for me, but damn is that Joker mask clean. If it wasn't for the aforementioned deal-breakers, I'd be all over that special edition.
Yes. Yes I will.Will you play another 70+ hours of this?
Getting this special edition too.

It really needs a new English script. P5 suffers big time from People-Just-Don't-Talk-Like-This syndrome.
March is not a good month for this game.
Atlus doesn't want or need our money when they have that big Sony check
Let it go
Atlus doesn't want or need our money when they have that big Sony check
I won't buy it unless they give ppl who beat the original an option to play late game new content from the start, like The Answer wirh FES
The Answer was its whole thing, but Royal's new content is distributed along the entire school year, so you can't do that.
Late game new content literally hinges on new confidants and story done throughout the game and is gated by completing specific conditions because of how the plot for it is set up. There's no viable way of doing this because of how intrinsically tied the new plotline is to stuff that exists througout the vanilla content.
You get the whole experience on this, so you don't need to play P5 before.
This is no disappointment cause we already know.
We just had to wait forever to learn what we already knew. That's ATLUS marketing in a nutshell.
