Guaranteed the answer dlc development was essentially done when reload launched. They couldn’t plan, design, and build the answer that fast waiting for a good fan response to reload. This is atlus. (I love atlus but they take their time)

They definitely had some of it done but I buy that they put it on hold until they saw if it would do well

[@Erikthedood]

They essentially admitted they started working on it during P3 reload’s marketing phase but wouldn’t have finished it by the time the base game released, but didn’t want to leave it out of the game as they saw how fans were clamoring for it to be included, so as a compromise they decided to release it as DLC later as their goal.

[@EmeraldHearts1]

I've been saying, ever since I finished P3R (plan to get the dlc eventually, when I have extra wiggle room in my budget lol) that I REALLY hope that people acknowledge the voice acting in P3R when award noms start coming out. Everyone is so good in this game but, honestly, one of the standouts for me is Zeno Robinson. I've always loved Junpei as a character, he and Akihiko were always my top two fave characters in the game (Shinji and Saori from P3P close behind) but Zeno's performance as Junpei has been a big like- example I give when I tell people that someone's take on a character can sell it for people. There's people I had to convince, who found him annoying at first, to give Junpei a shot- I would tell them how he has one of my favorite development arcs in a game. But there's others who found him endearing at first in Reload, and its BECAUSE of the take Zeno got to have with the chsracter. Not to mention that his voice acting for his big scenes with Chidori in late November. That scene is so well-voice acted by everyone, but ESPECIALLY Zeno. You could tell how much he loves Junpei with his voice work (especially since hes said that Junpei's his favorite) and I'm still incredibly glad he got to voice him.

[@MythicMachina]

So I understand them wanting to keep Tartarus randomly generated in the base game in order to preserve the feeling of the original, but I really feel like they should have done mode with the dungeons in this. the dungeon crawling is the entier point of this DLC, THIS is the time to break out the hand-crafted dungeons. Or at the very least I would have liked to see more set pieces. Also, I remember that people were PISSED that The Answer wasn't in the base game. When this DLC got announced, I looked up a bit of what it was about to find that it was met with a resounding "meh". I was very confused

[@PatManDX]

People were just annoyed with having to spend the extra money, and that it wasn't included in the original, regardless of the quality of the content. People REALLY wanted that definitive P3 experience and Atlus kinda dropped the ball (even if it was due to very understandable budgetary and development scope reasons.)

[@clowntown5220]

@@PatManDX it was because they were selling a Deluxe edition that was supposed to include all DLC, low and behold the aegis pass comes out and it is not considered DLC that was included in said edition which was only mentioned after the fact. I don't believe it was a "atlus dropped the ball" as much as a scummy move on sega's part. DLC looks fantastic so make your own decision when it comes to spending, I just hope that the persona series isn't gonna be held hostage by sega for us to approve of their shitty tactics, or make atlus suffer due to most of us hating the decision.

1:05 A little correction, the Answer was not FES exclusive, back in the day you could buy an extra disc to play it but it never got out of japan so the only way to play it in English is buying FES, the japanese fans are not upset about it being DLC cause they know it was "DLC" on the PS2 too, only the west fans are upset saying it was "Ripped off from base game to sell separately" when it was separated all along, they think it's ripped cause they only know FES.

[@24hr-Gaming]

Exactly. It's people with their brains turned off. But it's weird because I only played FES and at the time I already knew it was a re-release of P3. But a lot of Persona fans clearly never actually played their own game because Reload is built on top of the changes that were already made in P3P. Reload is more like what P3P should have been instead of the absolute garbage that came out.

[@maquinlol9673]

@@24hr-Gaming Like i understand comments saying it's expensive, but saying it's ripped off to milk the fans is just spreading miss information, the worst is comments like that getting hundreds of likes and ppl actually believing them.

@@maquinlol9673 Yeah plenty of the comments are people not understanding that The Answer by itself is a standalone game. And it was a game that badly needed rebalancing because as someone who actually likes Tartarus dungeon crawling, no Compendium is a rough experience. The one thing I will agree on is for $35 if they were going to market The Answer only through an expansion pass is that there should have been a lot more. When you consider the DLC P5 got, they could have put in more effort into what Reload got. Something like the challenge battles that P5R got would have been really nice, especially if it included one more super boss.

This DLC is very similar to KH3's limit cut. If you love the combat, The Answer/Episode Aigis is worth your price and time. The dungeon crawling, Persona compendium, Theurgies, and party members kit are pretty much better than the Journey/Makoto side, especially Metis is OP for that reason. But for the story, nothing differs with just adjustments and more social links. So it's up to the players to buy it or not. Waiting for sales/discount is also fair way if you don't like the price.

[@Eg-ej6nx]

Im just kinda sad about the Yukari change honestly. I feel like the illiterate nerds who hated her won and it resulted in an ultimately watered down portrayal of greif and the messy behaviors that such a thing can bring out of people. Like when she apologized to aigis at the end it didn't really feel warrented compared to og where some actually out of pocket stuff was said. Idk it just rubs me the wrong way that such emotional vulnerability and anger was shelved for the sake of her likable brand. Just kinda took me out in comparison to og. Still understand why they did it, and like most of the new changes, but that one in particular really got me in a doomer mood ngl. Edit: Thanks for the likes. I did not expect the rest of the thread to turn into a P5 shuake roast but tbh I kinda agree lmao. That ship is overrated and also doesn't really matter because the whole point is that they are just objectively better as best friends and partners in crime who could never really be since their life circumstances took different turns. Boiling it down to just a romantic vibe diminishes the vibe imo cause now it feels superficial rather than genuine and meaningful. I like lgbt rep, but shuake kinda sucks rujixjoker is just kinda better anyhow.

[@longforari]

Seriously I knew they'd defang her in response to the blatant misogy people felt towards her character and especially considering one of the bigger issues with Yukari (the fact that every one of her character moments center around men in her life) was never remedied.

[@7evan]

Great now we'll have complaints that she's not mean enough. I've often said P3 fans are the hardest megaten fans to please and boy ain't that the truth sometimes. Btw I completely understand your gripes and you're allowed to feel them. I'm just tired because it seems like everytime someone complains about something in the P3 brand they have a really good point and thus arguments continue with no end in sight and I just wonder if anybody will ever be satisfied with anything P3 related. Ugh

[@PatManDX]

While I agree, you have to keep in mind that the original localization for the Answer really made Yukari a lot meaner than the original Japanese. The Reload version is closer and more accurate in comparison (or so I'm told). I was told that FES Yukari's attitude was a lot more of a slow boil that doesn't explode until the Colosseum battles. That said, I do miss the last bit of petty desperation we see from her in FES, and I'm a little sad they took that from us. I don't think either version of Yukari is bad, I do miss abrasive Yukari myself even if it's inaccurate to the source material, but don't think it's fair to say it's JUST because people who had poor media literacy won out or that Atlus got cold feet (can't deny that those were possible factors, but I'm just saying there's other things at play that are likely more significant). You gotta remember, Yukari was "toned down" in the main story of Reload too, for the same reasons of how the original localization was inaccurate. It's just one of those subjective things. It's weird to think that the modern western P3's understanding of Yukari was informed by some divergent localization changes from the 2000s, accompanied by some SERIOUS misogyny from the fandom from back then. That being said, I hope someone mods in some of the older FES version of the scenes (Yukari's last desperate attempt, some of her meaner comments (even if they need to be re-voiced), and the one cutscene that was a lot more morbid in the original).

We will probably see more DLC than rerelease in the future. Atlus is a company that often listened to fans, Persona 3 reload was only made because fans asked for it. Atlus knows people are tired of the rerelease. Even if the price is high Episode Aigis will probably sell quite well because 3 reload was such a big success and because of how popular Aigis is. So this is a test for P6 and P6 will probably get a DLC story expansion. Side note: I don't hate re-releases there are both pros and cons to both re-releases and DLC. But most Altus fans are just tired of re-releases so DLC is a better option right now, That may change in the future, but DLC the best for now

[@24hr-Gaming]

It's kind of a shame because I prefer physical copies. I think what they should do is when they release the upgraded version of the game, they should just let people who own the original version either download it for free or buy it at a cheap price. I am hoping Episode Aigis will get a physical release, but if it doesn't happen I'm not surprised. I also think that argument is very passive aggressive (not you, but people arguing against re-releases) because almost all the people who say re-releases are a scam are also calling for Reload to get a re-release and are whining about Episode Aigis being DLC. People really are just stupid. Atlus should just go more with what sells because people who actually buy the game are real consumers, not whiny people on Twitter.

[@Shadow-Joop-157]

@@24hr-Gaming I have nothing against re-releases either. There are things that rereleases can fix that DLC simply can't and there are things that DLC can do that rereleases can't, one is not better or worse than the other. but a large portion of Atlus fans are tired of rereleases so we'll probably see more DLC in the future. A game that I think deserves a rerelease is soul hackers 2, it is not the greatest game but it does a few things very well so a rerelease can fix the bad parts

[@Namingway248]

Its certainly on their mind but it may well depend. On one of the fan surveys I did for them (I'm part of atlus' fan emailing lists) they had a few questions regarding preference for re-releases or dlc. It's likely if the international results said dlc is a better way to go, we will see more of that direction. Personally, I actually really dislike it. A re-release can thread new characters and plot points throughout the entire game while also adding new content whereas dlc as a rule doesn't usually interact with the main plot. This means you can never really touch up the main game in a meaningful way. It doesn't seem like other people see it this way though.

[@AlmaHeartfire]

They were working on the answer while reload marketing was happening but they couldn't finish it before release so ez paid dlc

[@Miriam_J_]

They actually spoke about this. They said Femc would have to be added in another version, but that version would be very far off if they did it. At the same time, they said that it would have needed to release alongside episode Aigis for it to happen. They said they know that fans don't want them to just be working on remakes, so it seems like they're really moving on after this. He does end the question with "I don't think there's any possibility to make it happen in the future either". I guess if SEGA specifically really wants it, they might still do it, but I doubt it. (Article with interview can be found at Persona Central. I'd link it but I don't think KZbin allows that)

[@fakenayhn]

Reason why ive pirated every altus game ive played.

[@Angie-ji7be]

I thought so too but tbh if that were the case, they would have dropped Episode Aigis way earlier than September. It seems to me like atlus/sega higher ups genuinely weren't expecting P3R to sell as well as it did (for some reason) and just really underestimated how many new players were interested in a P3 remake. Wada talked about budget constraints in interviews before, and it always sounded like sega just gave them the short end of the stick instead of letting the team pursue their already watered-down vision for P3R by excluding femc. As for a femc rerelease, Wada interview aside, that was already seeming less likely as more rumors about P6 and other remakes started popping up. Given the scope of a Reload-style femc route, I'd believe it if Atlus' current production schedule just can't afford to squeeze that in any sooner than in the next decade...

Glad butterbuns got sponsored otherwise we would have gotten this video next year

[@ragingriver6025]

Welcome back buns! We love you and your thoughts!

[@ShycoWar]

Just got done with my playthrough, and decided to check out a few reviews and comments in that usual post-completion fixation. Gotta give it up for the way you handle the more controversial topics-namely, with humor, neutrality, and respect. Cuz it ain't exactly the best feeling to suddenly be met with an unexpectedly large angry mob yelling about how the things that nearly made you tear up just a couple hours ago are such "watered down garbage made for wussy snowflakes", they may as well consider it the greatest gaming sin of the 2000s 🙃

I'm glad i found this comment cause this is what I'm afraid of. I haven't beaten the normal story yet, although I think I'm close to it. And I'm just worried that when I get to this and beat it, I'll enjoy it like I expect myself to, only to look online and see everyone complaining that it's "too soft" or whatever the buzzword is at the time. I already struggle with constantly worrying about if my opinion is "correct" or not already. I don't want to have played this, loved it, and then be told that my own feelings are wrong because I played the wrong version or whatever. Even if I haven't had an opportunity to play the original.

Ye gods! The stars of aligned and our O so Starchy Mother hast blessed us lil' crumbs with a SECOND VIDEO in the SAME MONTH?!?!?! Jokes aside, tho, congrats on the sponsorship! Can't think of someone who deserves it more than you~

Mom came back with the milk already

It kinda makes sense that Aigis would only have a single sad expression, when you consider that she _is_ a robot. Yes, a robot with a soul and full sapience, but a machine nonetheless. That may be as far as the technology could get with her expression wise in universe.

[@geniusgamerr4517]

If it wasn’t sold as dlc I probably would have like it.

[@VSpoodle]

Fucking Velma chilling with the gang got me so bad

[@CW-dn3ce]

WHAT???? 2 VIDEOS IN LESS THEN A MONTH??? HAS CHRISTMAS COME EARLY THIS YEAR??!????

[@notsobrightman6606]

Bread Mother has blessed us yet again!!!

[@wolfofpersia2275]

we have to get her more sponsors this is the only way we can get more videos on time

[@DeRedBaronCT]

I don't remember hearing but the compendium was added to Episode Aigis? Cus I remember hearing someone say that all they needed to do to make the answer not frustrating was to let you use the compendium

[@joaolima7131]

Yes, you can even inherit the Compendium from the main game, but his personas are more expensive

[@thomasthecoolkid7228]

Yes... unless you're playing on Heartless (basically just Merciless with a new name), in which case you remain locked out of the compendium just like the OG

[@elvisboafo446]

@@thomasthecoolkid7228no that’s not true I played on heartless and at the start got the compendium to lev 25 and under personas

[@fakechannelname8235]

@@elvisboafo446 yupyup can confirm as well, played through on heartless and *did* have the compendium still

[@Jaytaxman]

What a wonderful little video thank you buns

[@impachoblue1301]

I finally beat the answer about 4 months before p3r announcement. I'm still not ready to get back into it again I'll give it another 10 years 😅

[@TipToey]

Man that twinkie's voice is buttery smooth.

[@GameoftheYear-fx4mq]

Me watching this video not having P3R wondering where the MC is during all of this: 👁️👄👁️

[@brandoncain]

Also, thank you Atlus-SEGA.

[@ashleyhunte]

BLESS THE BUNS, SHE’S BACK

[@machupichu18]

For me I think Margaret would of been a better choice than Joker. I know that was a Portable thing, but considering Episode Aigis added a lot of FES things in this DLC, Margaret would of been a nice crumb for Portable fans especially with Elizabeth back and the fact that the Liz stuff is referenced and canon in Arena, just idk.

[@PatManDX]

Or FemC, but that was never going to happen haha.
