After now finally playing 1-5 I would have to agree with you. I think 1 & 2 have really solid party members. Better than in 5 IMO. Although maybe that's partially because of the focus on them in 1&2. In 3 and onwards you have lots of interesting side characters in addition to the main party members. Any more than that I'd have to think about more, but could be something interesting to explore in a future video.🤔
@boxorileys tbf the cast gets two games to show growth but also the cast simply not only relies less on anime tropes than later persona games but also get more to do within personas story that later persona games (this is a big issue with the social links which chop up character growth often which affects modern persona games story pacing wise)
persona 2 duology is the best persona game and best megaten game imo, atlus made it clear that with duologies like digital devil saga and persona 2 are where they excel the most because theres more space for character development
i love crazy storylines like this, i feel like this is where atlus shines, majin tensei 2 spiral nemesis isnt too far off with the craziness and both ended up being some of my fav megaten games
lol, yeah I was a little confused on some points and didn't have full context either. That whole game is such a trip in terms of story. Crazy to think this AND Eternal Punishment were supposed to be part of the same game at one point. Like, this was going to be the first HALF of a game 😆
As someone who has played all the KH games and understands most of the lore, ehhh This ramps up way more quickly, we don't get to shadow versions of people until KH COM 😆 Although I will say having a bunch of games to keep straight and the mobile games definitely makes KH lore more convoluted. Maybe a possible sequel in the future? 🤔
Yeah, the plot isn't too bad to follow if you don't worry about all the small details. But since it's a plot about rumors becoming reality things go off the rails pretty quickly. Just wish Maya wasn't a silent MC in Eternal Punishment.
lol, freudian slip, was calling them bad Germans the whole game, cause saying the historical name of that group multiple times a stream might set off some youtube alarms 😅
this video was more confusing than the entire plot of the persona 2 duology
Forgot to mention that the two guys fighting to be the world's worst man are also the same dude
Hadn't gotten to that point yet in the game. Almost wish I had waited till I finished, would've gotten even crazier. 😆
Oh! Apologies! I hadn't meant to spoil it!
I was under the impression you'd finished@@boxorileys
I think Persona 2 has one of best story and character writing in series imo lol

@@seanplaysgames2551 agreed!
P3 onwards just some weabo baits. with very very simple caveman lvl story for weabos. @@boxorileys
this is relativley normal compared to smt 2 and smt if
Just got to the point in the game where we have to fight our shadow selves, was very confused by everything. Everything’s clear now. Thank you

dude I first played the game when I didn't even know English and now seeing this it explains so much about how japan is the land of the multiple suns.
The way things just continue to get even more insane past the point of what was mentioned
I know right! Honestly, the crazy plot made having to replay 50% of the game less painful.
Some of this is just wrong I love it

Persona 3 , 4 and 5 plot : 50 pages
Persona 2 plot: 500 pages book lol
Still way more understandsble than kingdom hearts lore.

i never got into kingdom hearts but seeing elsa and goofy in the same room makes me think its a huge rabbit hole with no escape
Persona 2 was the craziest game of the series
This is the persona remaster we need
Certainly not the one we deserve 😞
Informative video
so where does hanako the toilet demon fit into all this?
He's the missing link between this game and The Legend of Zelda series
the story was stable and understandable for me until the nazi mechs invaded D:
confusing story, but BEST main characters of any game of all time!

recommendation gang?
Oh thank goodness... 😮💨
Ganggang
we were blessed
The bad Na-
Germans lol
