So I never heard voices from the original P4 obviously... I am really surprised how different Chie sounds... I'm more use to and actually prefer her voice from Golden.

[@BigKlingy]

I still think Erin Fitzgerald's Chie starts a bit rough and gets better as the game goes on. Now that she's Chie in every spinoff, she's a lot more recognizable and most people tend to think it fits Chie's character more. They don't deny Tracey Rooney's performance is good, it's just not really that fitting for Chie.

[@galladeforce]

Something I wonder is how Erin Fitzgerald and Sam Riegal were directed at first since the two have way different approaches to how much they keep consistent with the original voice, since I can clearly hear that Sam Riegal is trying to imitate the same kind of voice that Dave Wittenberg did. While Erin Fitzgerald sounds quite different from Tracey Rooney yet they both started with the Animation at the same time so they would have dealt with the same directors, producers... If they did have the Fog scenes voiced then they would have had to have gone a lot further to hide it since they not even add any effects to Adachi’s voice to try and disguise the fact that it is Adachi, and although I find that vocal processing does not always work especially if the editing is rather light. For example Tara Platt with just her voice artificially deepened still sounds like Tara Platt to me and hence does not hide the fact that it is her voice to me. Having Johnny Yong Bosch try a way different voice than the one he uses from Adachi could also help. And talking about disgusting voices something I have found is that I have a fairly good success rate at guessing voice actors for characters from voice actors I recognise or being able to identify them even when using voices they really use, for example, in the dub of Digimon Tamers Steve Blum plays 3 major to semi major characters who each sound very different from each other yet I can recognise his voice in all of them even though one of them uses his trade mark voice or in my first Trails game where I was able to identify that Erika Harlacher was Juna, this even tends to persist when under vocal processing like what happened with the aforementioned Tara Platt in a certain game. This does not really extend too for example a new character played by somebody I do not recognise if there disguise is just vocal processing, I remember being hoodwinked by the reveal of a kidnapping culprit in a Tv Show I watched once because even though their Sweets based monster form had an obviously processed voice, one that suggests that they are trying to hide that the culprit is female again looking back I was not familiar with who played her so there were no red flags for me. Appropriately I have been playing Persona 5 Strikers and I have to say interestingly the game to me feels more like an Acton RPG version of Persona 5 that takes its other parent series tendency for fights against lots of enemies at once rather than a Warriors game with for example Fire Emblem or Legend of Zelda inspired mechanics integrated. The Fate Extella games I feel are closer to a Warriors game than this is and those where made by Marvelous not Koei Tecmo. This is way different than most Warriors crossover games since they tend to swing a lot more towards the Warriors side.

Personally, I'm a bigger fan of Erin Fitzgerald's performance as Chie, but that's probably because I'm more used to it. 4:59 And that is why you should always double check lines to see if they're important or not, because if you get rid of an important line, boom, you've created a plot hole. 5:36 WHY WAS THIS LINE NOT USED!?!?!? 11:39 Why did these lines have to be cut? They're amazing (though, I might be biased, because Yosuke). 13:08 Possibly? It's hard to tell since Tartarus and the TV world work very differently. 14:16 Yeah, it's not super obvious, but that definitely sounds like Johnny Yong Bosch. I'm glad that line was cut, because otherwise, it would have been REALLY easy to figure out who the killer is. 15:17 I get the feeling that hashtag is supposed to be sarcastic. 15:33 *sigh* Such is the life of Yosuke Hanamura. 16:49 Okay, even with the distortion, that is VERY obviously Johnny Yong Bosch. If the player didn't figure out who the killer was from the first line (which is understandable), they'll definitely figure it out now. 20:09 At this point, if the player hasn't figured out that Adachi's the killer, they are either deaf, and thus, can not hear the dialogue, or they don't remember what Adachi's voice sounds like, which is very unlikely. 21:16 *gags*

[@BigKlingy]

5:36 Surely they could've fit ONE more short line here... 11:39 They're good Yosuke development, but they probably wanted to get to the castle quickly, as this is the last major scene before we get actual gameplay after, what, 3 hours or so. They moved a lot of what he says here to his Social Link. 15:17 I was saying that Yosuke's "We're way more immature than [Nanako] is" is the most true statement I've heard in a long time. 16:49 Hence why these lines probably weren't ever supposed to play.

I wish they kept the line about going in the TV at night and allowed you to go there in NG+ for rare loot. Too bad

[@carolbrokethewallagain]

So this is what you meant by much of this being inconsequential. Most of the unused stuff is repeated or unneeded information. I think it’s pretty funny that Yosuke had this the most. He was unlucky enough to be the character in this position in the plot where he’s there for all of the initial exposition. If roles were switched with someone, it’d probably be the same way since it’s all clarification and repeating. Still, it’s pretty damn fitting. About that nighttime line, I wouldn’t be surprised if nighttime making the shadows stronger mention was meant to be the justification to why you can never go into the dungeon at night at some point. Of course, the character’s having to be home and sneaking out not always being an option already does this so a special reason like this wasn’t needed. But this also means P4 is officially done. It’s a shame, but at least there was that gem of a line to make it more worthy of a sendoff. So long Inaba, I say for probably the fifth time now.

[@BigKlingy]

You can never go to the TV World at night anyway, so I guess they felt those lines weren't needed. I might upload Mr Edogawa's TV Classroom, though those won't have commentary. Making these videos reminded me of how much fun I had with these videos. I'll miss this series.

Their oldest members were already pretty experienced shadow fighters and Aigis seems to be a pretty powerful and experienced Anti-Shadow Weapon. And 2: which is the difficulty of the shadows in P3 compared to P4, specifically, the boss shadows, and not really because of the gameplay in FES, even with Portable's added opinion to take full control of the party members and choose what you want them to do directly, the shadows are still pretty tough to take on.

I kinda like most of the early Yosuke cuts; I feel like keeping them in would have made Yosuke seem too mature and undercut his development across the rest of the game. Some of the cuts that got replaced by a protagonist dialogue choice also seem like good calls; a couple of them feel dangerously close to Makoto Syndrome, making Yosuke seem more like the actual protagonist of the game instead of Yu. (For what it's worth, I think it actually works in P5, but that may be my desire for another female protagonist and/or my bias towards Priestess characters talking -- and at the very least the final Vanilla palaces and especially the third semester in Royal do a lot to re-cement Joker as the protagonist.)

It actually makes sense that SEES was in hard mode the whole time, and also that they tend to be the strongest shadow fighters since unlike the teams in 4 and 5 where they formed after discovering the shadows and their power of Persona, SEES was actually around before Persona 3 took place since the oldest members seem to be already pretty experience shadow fighters and Aigis seems to be a pretty powerful Anti-Shadow Weapon.

But yeah that's it for P4G. Overall, it was a pretty great game, one that I hope that I get to play once I have a computer Steam doesn't hate. In general, I'm really enjoying my dive into the Megaten Series as I've enjoyed BigKlingy's playthrough of P4G and want to play it for myself, and I've had fun with SMT4 too (mostly). Honestly can't wait until I dive deeper into the series, so I must thank you Klingy for giving me the reason to jump into it. In other news, I finally beat and 100% Bug Fables yesterday and today respectively. There's still one more optional challenge that I would like to do before I leave it alone a bit (reason being I decided to briefly put on easy mode to do it since there was no reward for doing it on hard mode and how I handicapped myself due to "reasons", so I would like to tackle that challenge force full, especially now since I've probably become the strongest that I can possible be). Overall, it was a pretty great game. Even if the team size was small, the game probably has some of the best party chemistry that I've seen in a video game (along side some of the best humor that I've seen in a video game). The story was really entertaining and really made me invested to see more of it. The world was fun to explore and was filled with plenty of secrets and charming characters. The gameplay was pretty fun as well with its battle system being pretty polished and opened up the way for a lot of strategies (and there's still a ton of strategies, items, and even a few moves that I haven't utilized to their fullest). The difficulty was balanced for the most part, even including the Hard Mode as the devs actually used that to determine the balancing, making it one of the few games that I would consider having a good hard mode. As for complaints, I do have a few. First, I do feel like berries[/money] are a bit too tight for a bit with the game, especially near the beginning where there are some sizable purchases to gain access to some important things (such as the bank) or if you really wanted to experiment with the cooking system (which you REALLY want to do given how helpful items are in this game). Some of the field skills and platforming in this game could have used some polish, especially the Beemerang given how frustrating it can be use with some puzzles. My last complaint is something I'm a tad mixed on; the Medal System. Don't get me wrong, I love how the Medal system allows for some many different and fun builds for the player to use and how you need to decide on which medals you'll want really adds a great deal of replayablity to the game. That said, I'm not really sure on how much I like how medal points are a stat that you can choose to upgrade during your rank ups since it makes it feel a bit too dominant of a stat to increase sometimes. It's an issue that I sort of have with the first two Paper Marios with the over centralization of a certain stat that lowers the values of other stats (it's sort of similar as to why I'm starting to dislike the speed stat in FE for being too overly important). However it's the fact that you can upgrade medal points so much that gives the game so much variety and replayablity. In addition, I do think Bug Fables does balance out the importance of the other two stats since there's a ton of great skills in this game, so to use them regularly you'll need a sizable amount of TP (MP) for them, and HP, while still probably the weakest stat, still has importance to upgrade since while it's only a one point upgrade at a time, enemies hit pretty hard (even taking like three or four points worth of damage adds up quickly), so you any point that you can get greatly helps out. Also, to show that I'm a more balanced judge how given many praise solely for it being like the first two Paper Marios, my experience with Paper Mario was first with Super Paper Mario (very different to the from the first two), Sticker Star (which I even dislike and found flawed even on my first playthrough without any serious knowledge of the series), and only up to Chapter 2 of the first game (only played up to there since I had other games marked as a higher priority to beat, but did struggle to find a good reason to return besides needing to beat it). While I am critical of Nintendo's handling of Paper Mario as of late(I really don't like the restrictive philosophy that damns creativity and limits ideas for the sake of brand identity protection since I see it doing more harm than good in the long run), I judged Bug Fables on its own merits and only compared it to its spiritual predecessor whenever I saw an idea/concept and went "oh, now I can see why people liked x thing from that game." Overall, Bug Fables is a pretty fantastic game and certainly recommend for anyone interested in it.

I'd say something witty but I just want people to appreciate that the plot of Dungeon 1 of P5 Strikers is simps.

[@BigKlingy]

Specifically someone brainwashing a ton of people into being simps. Which, sadly, is pretty accurate to how Japan's idol industry works. I went through the Alice arc and was like "yep, Persona did a 'doesn't idol culture suck?' plot AGAIN." A lot of Strikers' dungeons can be applied to fandoms in general, like the second one having an author's crazy fans assaulting people who don't like his book. (Meanwhile, I'm really looking forward to one of the later Jails, which seems to be a huge jab at fans who took the Phantom Thieves completely the wrong way.)

[@BigKlingy]

@@frankseward7017 One thing I like so far is every dungeon gives spotlight to a party member who was neglected (or lost relevance after their arc) in the original game. Jail 1 focuses on Ann. Jail 2 on Yusuke. And apparently Jail 3 is Haru. I've also noticed Makoto isn't getting much focus so far. I'm okay with this, as she already got basically two arcs to herself in P5. It's a bizarre INVERSION of how P5's cast were treated in spinoffs. Instead of Flanderization, they actually get DEEPER.

I noticed I was running out of things to say in my comments on your Final Fantasy XII LP, and the game just really didn't manage to grab my attention, so I kinda stopped watching. Honestly, not sure if I'll try to catch up on it or not. Final Fantasy has always been a franchise I've known about and had access to, but which never truly grabs my attention, and sadly XII really wasn't changing that. I watched your Thoughts On Zelda Games (that you've played), I sorta typed out this monstrous essay for it, but I ran out of time I first watched it and just saved the comment to a text file. Expect said essay to pop up sometime in the next week or never at all. On that note, have you seen the MLP G5 stuff? There's a bit of animation watchable on KZbin and a synopsis for the movie we're getting late in the year.

[@BigKlingy]

I understand if you stopped watching XII. It's not for everyone, being very light on character development and inter-party interaction. It's a very important game for me personally and I've always wanted to do it on the channel, but I if you're not interested that's fine. I hadn't been following the news, and honestly I don't really care at this point. I don't think anything's going to match G4 for me, and generic CGI doesn't stand out as much as G4's flash artstyle did.
