  1. One of the MegaTen games with its heavy themes and dark tone represented by the color blue. Up next is the detective, but sunnier themed and family friendly toned game represented by the color *giallo*, Persona 4.

    Get it? Because Giallo means Yellow in Italian.

    You should also recap SMT If and Monark. SMT If is basically the game that inspired the Persona series while Monark is modern day version of SMT If.

  2. Wow. What a story. I have to admit, once I heard so much about Persona as a game, I wanted to play it and experience it as best I could. However, the first time I did it was this version and I got so thrown off by its structure that I was turned off by it.

    Now that I know how to approach the game, and the persona 4 and Persona 5 stories, I'm really putting in a concerted effort to play this again and then 4 and 5.

    On a side note, this definitely fits right in with the content, tone, etc of the smt series. Just looking back at the other games I've played, and it's really really compellig and can be very, very dark

  3. This is the video I wish I had as a kid. I've always loved stories, when i discovered persona 3 it seemed so bizarre and interesting but back then I was too poor to afford games. I later played it & loved it as an adult. The child in me really appreciates what you're doing with these videos.

  4. This was excellent. You covered the game, the social links, and The Answer, and you did it all with your trademark sense of humor and style. This is one of your best. Well written script, music choices, and editing. You should really be proud of how good you've gotten over the years.

    My only regret is that YouTube is losing viewers every day, and making your channel grow is quickly becoming an impossibility. This video should have been over 10k views in the first hour, considering Persona 3 just got a rerelease and your recaps are so good. You're doing an awesome job, and YouTube isn't doing anything to keep great creators like you around.

    Creators are leaving the platform, and I hope the same doesn't happen to you. Advertising revenue is down across pretty much every industry, and making a business model based on paying for content with advertiser dollars strangely doesn't work in a recession. The creators that I follow that are sticking around all day this is probably their last year. It's a real shame.

    I appreciate all you do, and my kids love the recaps you've made of their favorite games (Mostly Castlevania, they're not old enough to appreciate Persona or SMT). I hope you'll keep making these recaps because you like doing it and not just for the pay, but a mage has got to pay the bills somehow. Stay positive, and thanks for this recap and many more.

  5. I'm like very confused now. I played PE3 on the psp and sure enough I beat nyx, Makoto dies, end of story….so where does the rest of this stuff come from? Is it from the remake? Did I miss something? There's like 40% of plot missing from what I know! o_o

  6. also, Makoto Yuki doesn't really die at the end. if everyone stops wishing for Nyx/Erebus, the seal is no longer necessary and he technically could return back to life. it's mentioned in Persona 4 that Elizabeth is looking for a way to free him.

  7. As a certain Persona User would say, "I've been waiting for this!". Fantastic job Oni with combining not only FES and Portable's stories but also sprinkling in all the Social Links and extra tidbits.

    It's really cool how you worked in the FeMC, even as a cameo. Personally, I believe that Makoto and Kotone are fraternal twins and the protagonist you pick is the one who survived the accident and got Death sealed in them.

  8. While I don't hate Portable light novel approach to the daily life portion, there's something about actual 3d model interactions and cinematic cutscenes that makes the game feel much more alive. Too bad Atlus couldn't find a way to implement full party controls to the old game due to the code (according to most people), that way it be Fes, but plays close to Persona 4 and 5. But hey, Portable provides an optional female protagonist, which everyone apparently wanted right? RIGHT?

  9. When the time travel bit happened I was so sure they were going to save the main character from his fate. I was annoyed when it didn’t happen. I thought they were going to combine their powers with him to make the seal so that he wouldn’t have given too much and wouldn’t fade away.

    That would have been the better ending in my opinion.

  10. Thank you so much! I never got to play FES or see the Answer, was great to finally see. Persona 3 and Nocturne were my introduction to Megaten and they both gotta a special place in my memories.
