I Am So Sad, I Heared That They Wont Include Anything From Fes Or Portable, So No Femc, No Answer Or

☀️ i am so sad, i heared that they wont include anything from fes or portable, so no femc, no answer or the like. I hate it here, why this disrespect to my girl Minako i will fight somebody at atlus HQ

oh. well i will say it straight (the only thing straight about me i fear lol) but thats likely not entirely true, ☀️ anon. idk if youve seen this post but it sums it up pretty well https://www.tumblr.com/petorahs/719925542729695232

『ペルソナ3 リロード』日本メディア最速インタビュー。オリジナル版のフルリメイクだが『フェス』で追加された本編内の要素が『リロード』にいっさい入っていないというわけではない【週刊ファミ通先行掲載】 | ゲーム・エンタメ最新情報のファミ通.com

『ペルソナ3 リロード』開発者への日本メディア最速インタビューを、週刊ファミ通2023年6月29日号（6月15日発売）に先行して特別掲載。

bad ign reporting aside, i was also pretty upset at first since no femc and the answer! but then i saw a good point someone made about the femc case:

persona 3 reload has reportedly been in development for four years. and in that four years thats standard time to build a game from the ground up, maybe even too little – anyone who's been in game dev can tell us that. p3re doesnt reuse assets, too, it's completely from scratch. so having femc isnt simply a matter of model swap. they'd also have to program the UIs and make everything pink - sure, that could be "easy", but there's also the changed social links and team dynamics (more writing to be done), weapon system and all that (more coding)? so its like... i'd be actually surprised if they managed a femc during those 4 years. its quite a lot of work to re-adapt base p3 as is i feel and modernizing it. also i feel like atlus themselves wouldnt want to do their character and her fanbase wrong so of course they wouldnt fkn slap on a few pink menus and call it a day. they surely want to rewrite the s links and everything too in accordance to her. art takes time.

(with all that being said bullying atlus for femc is warranted actually maybe then her inevitable dlc might come faster lmao )

similarly, im fine with no "the answer" now despite being its #1 defender. theyd have to completely rework the 30:2 hour grinding to story ratio which is just not sustainable on a modern gameplay perspective. that also takes time.

its why i made this post actually. i somehow trust them, and i feel like most of us can stand to chill a little and have healthier expectations. as in not overbloated and not have the bar set in hell either (altho we should also do that too)

and i know, like anyone who's played this game, it means so much to so many people. and thats why its maybe impossible to please everyone, because its so many different things: a game that saved their life, a funny goofy lighthearted one where you catch demons, the most depressing persona game ever (altho i feel like p2 would beg to differ on that one-), or for me personally, a game that just made me cry man.

and because it means so much, everyone wants to see it be the best it can be!! and that means having hamuchan. i get that all of this riot energy is out of love for the game, really. but. yeah.

a remake seems like it's "less work to do" since the foundation's "already there" and i dont know how many people worked on p3re but like. i highly doubt theyre just sitting on their asses pissing off fans on purpose lol. (or maybe they are and im just too optimistic damn 😭)

I am animating again.

My friends once invited me to a cosplay event. Since I had just moved in recently, I had no costume so I used the leftover cardboard to quickly assemble something. I am actually quite happy how it turned out. I want to redo it and make a better version. I had a lot of fun putting it together, even if my room became a mess.

Also planning on making a Jubei mask

Still sketching all the parts though.

I kinda want to make a full body Susanoo suit one day. If I find the time to do it. T_T

Guys I really ask that you try your absolute best to spread Hani’s campaign. This campaign fell off the map for a long time, which is actually crazy considering multiple children’s lives hinge on it. I don’t really know what else to say beyond what has already been said — that Palestinians are dying by the number, that they have no electricity and no food and not even any actual shelter, that it makes my blood run cold to imagine any of my really young relatives going through even a semblance of this. Hani has already detailed that he has two toddler sisters stuck in Gaza and that he’s the sole caretaker of his entire family. He is only 23 years old. Please don’t let him shoulder this burden alone. Please spread this. It’s extremely time sensitive and I’m so worried for this family.

RED RIDING TAO!!!!!

Renekyi on Twitter made the cutest Tao design for Halloween and I wanted to draw it too please check out the Original if you can.

Here's an lightless version and a extra doodle I did!!
