My biggest issue with this angry mob shit we have is the lack of second chances.

They donāt like the part about kids dating the teachers and how some gay npcs in the game are not treated with respect. Something like that.
I didnāt think too much about the morality in p5.
I just wanted to get in Annās pants. And Makotoās too.

Itās because usually, people get blown up, tossed in jail, then they realize they fucked up and rehab.
P5 does some sequence breaking and fucks up the process because while the person recognizes they fucked up, they still gotta pay for their crimes in the legal spectrum.
Itās not that bad if you ask me. Itās more about the person actively putting their money where their mouth is and atoning for their crimes.

Resetera is one of the most closed minded, petty, and frankly vindictive places on the internet.

It drives me crazy when people try to force foreign media through a western, or āwokeā, lens.
Evangelical wokeness is stupid and elitest.
Do I think that teachers dating students is wrong? Yup. But Iām not here to police Japanese cultures or people from it that are creating something.

At this point, does it matte? lol
For starters, anime, fan service, they have/had some gay dudes come across as predatory to one of the main chars trying to hook/force their way with him while he made clear he wasnt interested.
Add that Atlus made Catherine, a game they went in a crusade against because 4chan trolled them into thinking it had some shit that they percieved as anti trans, despite being a false, and the interaction being out of context.
And lets not forget that having a char on a work of fiction doing or saying something doesnt reflect what the author could think about a subject.
In short, RetardEra is full of all the scum that ruined neogaf to begin with.
Dont expect intelligence from them.

Why tho? You go into a palace to take someones desire to be shitty away so they can stop causing other people to suffer.
Then you throw them in jail and ruin their lives toā¦ make them sufferā¦
I see punishments as a way to make a person regret their actions and to prevent them from doing it again. They already arenāt going to do it again, so at this point, your effectively kicking someone thatās down
If heās old enough to go to jail, heās old enough to smash Kawakami.
Best waifu of the game, itās not even close.
As an evangelical, I gotta say that I donāt trust anyone that poses too much as an evangelical on TV/Social Media. Especially if theyāre politicians.
Wokeness aināt shit. Put in work with your actions. Half of these clowns donāt even get the ālove thy neighborā part right.
Edit: Good to see you back in the thread btw.

The palace is a representation of the catharsys process of them learning their mistakes.
This doesnt mean they have paid for their crimes to society.
By that logic, i shouldnt do time for regreting killing someone after the fact.
The whole idea is that they learn they fucked up and seek to pay their debt to society willingly, instead of being locked and maybe never learning why they were locked.

I would say āWho gives a shit? Itās Resetera.ā. But I will actually try to explain the reasons.
-
The girls being treated as fanservice at some points. Particularly since the first major bad guyās deal was that he was a major creep for the highschool he worked for. They find it hypocritical that the game is punishing the bad guy for objectifying women while it itself is doing that. But those are two different ball courts.
-
Bringing up the last point, you can, as a high school student, date someone older than you. Again, they find it hypocritical since the first bad guy was doing the same thing. Again it is different since the relationship you can enter is consensual while the other was pretty much rape.

Thereās a scene early on where the protag and his friend cut through the the red light district. During that, the friend is hit on by some older gay guys not knowing or finding out he is a high schooler. Being the only overt gay characters in this game, they didnāt like that they were predatory creeps because all LGBT are saints apparently.
They also just hate Atlus in general for misinterpreting their characters in past games, Persona 4 and Catherine. They will be angry that something happened with a character and damn Atlus to hell about it, ignoring the context of everything regarding it for REās own story.

Itās crazy because I donāt really like anime and JRPGs are hit or miss. I bought P5 on a whim last year and played through it twice in a row. Then I pre-ordered Royal and played through that. No regrets. One of my all-time favorite games for sure.
Royal has a built-in achievement system that rewards you for romancing every single available option soā¦

Persona is way too much of a timesink, so Iām really glad I didnāt like the combat in 3, the overly cheery style of 4 and 5 isnāt on PC. (Not that Iād be able to run it if it was). No one gives a fuck about 1 and 2.
This leaves Persona 4 Arena as the GOAT Persona game. 
For real, why does everyone talk like the SRK Forums donāt still exist?
What happened? This happened before the shakeup a few years ago too. Everyone just left and they act like they were forced to.
FWIW, Iāve learned a lot from you guys, so thanks for that. I was thinking about that before James mentioned SRK.
