I doubt it, I mean we had Persona 25th Anniversary artwork for Tatsuya, Maya, (boy with earring) and all the other protagonists from P3 onwards…not to mention Atsus themselves posted the openings/trailers for the games so they at least acknowledge P1/P2… Also they kept the Maya reference in Persona 3 Reload which was in the OG P3, FES and Portable and that is apparently a Global exclusive, not in Japan since they reference something else… Maya isn’t done yet and neither are the rest… I’d like to say it isn’t Kotover for Kotone Shiomi but man she’s had it rough as much if not almost the same as P1/P2… They definitely need more love… 🙏🏼🔥
You described my feelings about P3P perfectly. I love playing the Persona games for so many reasons, but one nitpick I always have is with the dialogue options and some game events. As a girl, there are times when I can’t immerse myself in the game because I would never talk to/treat someone else like the MC I’m playing as does. Playing P3P was such a breath of fresh air because she speaks to people like how I speak to my friends in real life. I also liked that I could date Shinji lmao. It’s a shame that she’s not in reload, but I can see how it would be incredibly hard to include her. Great video man!
They released a interview that they really wanted to add her, they did try, as there is Saori and Rio codes in the game, but Sega didn't give the proper budget and deadline for them
I feel like it more on an emphasis of "time" and how SEGA didn't gave Atlus as much time as they needed to cook their platinum goose *RIGHT*... So if ANYONE in this scenario is focus on financial sales and what not, it's SEGA.
Nice video, i think all versions of p3 give you the Persona 3 exprience. as long as you learn from the messages and themes which is most important part for me to p3. having two Mcs was a fun and cool expriement but i hope going forward they stick to one protagnist. not bothered if future games have a male or female protags.
In P5 Phantom X, they could put the Phantom Sees from Reload, as an event Each will have the relevant firearm or melee weapon (Yukari and Aegis), while Koromaru has a rocket launcher on his back since he cannot use the slingshot Kotone will be Violett and her Orpheus could change name (like the changes to the P5 ones in Reload) She and Makoto could have psycho and nuclear attribute and since they don't have the finishing move
Like I am super excited for the new dlc I would really love to play as the female protagonist in the new updated formate but if I had to chose one to give us I would want the new dlc because it is content that I have not experienced now if I did not play portal I probably would have leaned towards getting the female protagonist
It would’ve been cool if they could’ve worked FeMC into the DLC somehow, even as like a side character or something! But yeah I’ll be playing the DLC day one super excited!
It would be kind of expensive to have two protagonists in the game because now having to Rewrite all the dialogue, so it's people talking to a female student, not a male student
In the words of Rise: “There is no ’real‘ Persona 3. It just doesn't exist. Fes…portable…even reload. They were all born from 3” (That was cheesy as fuck but I’m on a golden streak again cause I replayed it recently lol)
I prefer the male protag over two mcs sure itd be nice for those who do but the story is mostly tailored for makato. Persona 3 for him is about him over coming his apathy learning to love care cherish and grieve with the concept of death. Makato in persona has the most. Character out of all of this and the story works because of that. When you take femc into acct her attitude and overall vibe is just completely different in comparison to makato giving the story a much more lighter feel. I dont think atlus hates her at all i dont hate her the fans dont hate her i jist feel like atlus kinda trapped her into this sort of limbo state by being tied to persona 3's story. In reload they want the story to keep its ORIGINAL tone and style as opposed to portable and thus here we are. Maybe one day we can get a femc spin off or her own title?
I completely understand this, but if Atlus had the capacity/money they should 100% add FeMC. Just because 1 protagonist fits the story better doesn’t mean the other should be left out. There are tons of people out there who can connect much more to FeMC and that is something that is really awesome. I say if Atlus has capacity they should please everyone!
@@readitandweeb It's not about the story fitting one or the other its the fact that it's Makoto's story and not the femc. The femc is just an alternate route and why she wasn't the priority.
I agree with this alot. Again it'd be nice to have the option but persona 3 really isn't about her. That's why I'm suggesting an original story for her instead of just replacing makato. People relate to her more because people want to have fun, most people have empathy. So yeah makato is a turn off but that's who he is take that away and think about how "I will protect you" will make you feel? One finally gained the courage to face death head on while the other well she's always had it just needed to be put in the situation. I definitely feel where both sides are coming from and I think atlus could've put it in nevermind the money. It's just a matter of shouldve and the answer is no.
The last point is excellent. A big reason for me preferring the Femc route over the male route is quite simply that i relate to her more than the male. And that isn't just her personality, it's how she interacts with and is interacted with other people. There's a distinct difference and feel, which i really like. Playing the male route definitely feels more like im playing a character rather than im playing as myself.
I'm a toxic old woman! And you know what I'm going to say! BRING BACK FEMC/KOTONE!😂 Hahaha! Just kidding!😂 Anyway! I have played all those versions and is very hard to choose! But If I have to choose one that will be P3 Portable because of Junpei being best friends with the female main character!😂 Seriously who doesn't like the idea of Junpei having a harem!😂 Damn! YOU KIDS!😂
i liked this video easy to understand the topic i find two things from each version i like i like how in persona 3 portable i can play as a girl since i am one! and i like fes because there is 3d models running around instead of the click and point mechanic. We maybe wont be getting Kotone/Femc in reload but feel like its not over for her.
I just don't get it man. It won't even be a burden for Atlus to add her because 90% of the game is already done. Literally just model swap MC, change UI from blue to pink, swap weapons from swords to naginatas and remix like three or so P3Portable songs. That's it. I won't even care if they decide to keep original Social Links for MC. I'd gladly take Yuri Only Romance over having Ken as a datable option. I guess what annoys me the most is that we waited SO LONG for the ultimate persona 3 experience that will include EVERYTHING and now that there was a potential of getting just that Atlus decided to pull the rug underneath our feet and exclude FEMC because of reasons. It didn't even have to be done now, nor in the next month or so. Leave it for later after Episode Aigis is done if necessary, believe me FeMC fans are used to waiting at this point so they would've waited even the whole year, but to straight up come out and deny that it's ever going to be a thing is just terrible.
That's not how it works at all, you really underestimate gaming development, you think a change of model is cheap? And if you use the mod as an excuse, they are using Yukari model, There is also the events exclusive to her, they would have to hire the composer and singers again, change the cutscenes, the UI would be different, more VAs because she have 2 exclusive SL and new dialogue for the SEES guys, and rehire the old ones for revamped scenes that reflect her side, they already said it would put a strain on them, if you want to get pissy and not believe it, that's on you for having unrealistic expectations, they also released a detailed interview all about this, and they really want to add her but there are things beyond their control, they even said they consider her a integral part of P3, and said that they wouldn't even trust a third party company, to not halfass it, because they wanted her to be unique, if you want to get mad, be at Sega, it's them who gives the budget, deadlines and allows all the decisions.
I’m just shocked that Atlus/Sega wouldn’t think that fans would want this… the OG PSP version of P3P sold more than P3 or P3FES so it’s pretty shocking
They’d also have to redo all the cutscenes and change the dialogue for almost the whole cast (to be in line with Portable) which also means re-recording a bunch of stuff. This shit ain’t easy.
what makes me upset too is they dont even wanna add her as a dlc, like am i missing something here? do developers not have more time to work on a dlc for a game that's already released? like I get not having her included in the base game but not even as a dlc? it would be easy money since they apparently like making players pay alot (im pretty sure the dlc pass that comes with episode aigis got a bunch of bad reviews because it didn't come with the deluxe edition for those who bought it before the pass got announced so people who got it before that will have to pay MORE just for the pass.)
Funny my in country translation suck also use old jargon of old old past 60s , modern jargon different we are now directly use english name or word without translation
I'd understand that line of thought if they put a shred of effort in the P3P porting they made a while ago. It literally has worse audio/video quality than the original PSP game
No that wrong p3r is a remastered of the base game of p3 while fes content answer is added as a $38 on top of the $70 while state they will not added p3p content
To be fair they hate maya more
Not any more!
Persona 2 is going to have a Remake!
They only hate ( Persona 1 )!😂
I doubt it, I mean we had Persona 25th Anniversary artwork for Tatsuya, Maya, (boy with earring) and all the other protagonists from P3 onwards…not to mention Atsus themselves posted the openings/trailers for the games so they at least acknowledge P1/P2…

If they add femc to reload then nobody would buy portable. I have a feeling this is mostly about money lol
True, Portable is technically on the recent gen consoles as well as PC

FeMC was really funny, she deserves to be in for that alone
Yeah I agree she was so bubbly and cool!
Well, at least there's the in-progress FeMC Mod.
Atlus doesn't hate her they just didn't have the time or money to add her. Lets not forget they went out of their way to add her to the ds games
I hope they revisit the big ensemble cast games like Persona Q, I would love to play them but I’m not a fan of the Q gameplay
They released a interview that they really wanted to add her, they did try, as there is Saori and Rio codes in the game, but Sega didn't give the proper budget and deadline for them

Persona 3 Reload: Kotone Edition coming 2026/ 2027... wait and see
Come on, you know they're just saving her for the rerelease
She’s not beating the allegations!
you did right by my girl 🙏 thank you for being unbiased and reasonable ^_^
She deserves much more, it’s the least I can do 🫡
I would like to see more video game related content on the channel. I feel like the “Nintendo” “cult classic” “Arms” needs a thorough “arm-nalysis”!

atlus doesn't hate her it just costs too much money to add her into p3r, they remastered p3p for a reason
It not that it’s too much money they have the money it’s that it’s not worth the resources that it would take for the gain they would get from it.
Simply put they ran out of time… which is also why the answer is DLC.

Atlus don't hate FeMC
