Why does this have such good reviews? It's an awful remake.

zoomers are retarded

Huge Persona 3 fans excited to play it for the first time.

It says persona on the box so it's good

Phenomenal remake
>improves tartarus dramatically
>much more difficult than original
>theurgies are flashy and fun to watch the animation for
>gives way more things to do at night to make up for all the free time you get during it including the character hangouts which are basically 6 new events for each of them
>new passives and redone skillsets for each character rebalancing them all to be much more closer to each other in damage and utility, some characters really improved a lot, like Aigis, who was a complete dumpster fire of a character in the original
>monad redone in an interesting way that adds mew challenge boss fights on each tartarus block with special equipment as a reward
>entire games graphics and assets redone from the ground up but otherwise its the same overall game you know and love it just looks newer
>tartarus exploration redone so sp is much harder to come by, in exchange the tired mechanic is gone and twilight fragments are a precious resource
>easy way to catch up party member levels
>brand new linked episodes serve as pseud social links for the male SEES and takaya
>don’t have to do new game+ for elizabeth, she is also much more difficult to handle
>fuuka actually does something
>brand new music tracks, i don’t know of they will ever top color of your night it is a phenomenal song
My only gripe is some of the redone music is worse and yukaris new voice sounds worse.
Everything else is exactly what I wanted about this game.
I really wish theyd add a femc campaign as dlc but they wont
Genuinelh cant wait for p4r after reload

>>713501440 (OP)
Because it's sadly the only way you can play P3 without having to emulate
>b-but P3P
P3P is raw dogshit.

>>713501440 (OP)
Don't care. No /ss/ no buy.

>>713502857
>much more difficult than original
Removed fatigue so it's much easier

>>713501440 (OP)
Because it's good and no amount of crying and whining on /v/eddit will ever change that.

>>713502857
>yukaris new voice sounds worse
It's pretty much everyone who's worse

Explain how its awful.
Persona 3 fucking sucked already to begin with, btw. The remake only improves things.

Fatigue stopped being an issue in the OG by the half way point anyways, non-player.

>>713503310
yes we know you didn't play it

>>713502857
>Yukaris new voice
wtf are you talking about? Toyoguchi Megumi voices Yukari in both the original and P3R

>>713503189
Fatigue is easier to handle than what p3r is because its easy to return to the first floor after checkpoints for a full sp heal then just keep going without stop when your party members get tired.
The fact that fusion spells are now theurgies also makes the game harder.
While its true that even with the new merciless difficulty the game isn’t that hard the game is still miles harder than the original and the elizabeth boss fight is also much harder.
Personally if theurgy gauges were reset after each fight, boss hp was multiplied by 2 and element boost/amp didn’t stack the game would be miles more difficult from that alone

>>713503189
The fatigue mechanic was easier than what reload does cause you don’t just get infinite sp
>b-but party members
You can literally return to the first floor before they get tired to replenish their sp as many times as you need then just go full blast as long as necessary without returning. This is only an issue before you get aigis, ken and koromaru which funnily enough are also the toughest parts of the game because you can only rotate one party. You can also abuse the great mechanic.
The first two blocks in p3r by comparison are much more difficult to do in a single night because of how finite sp is as a resource. This remains an issue until you get fuuka and theurgy. Fuuka now acts as a pseudo free sp restore after that but you need to meet several conditions: everyones sp must be low if someone isn’t then you run the risk of rng fucking you over, this is especially an issue in block 4 where ken and koromaru will burn the shit out of sp shredding enemies and your other party members will have much less use their sp on. Its also an issue when using physical characters like Junpei and Aigis as they will rarely ever spend sp. that being said, after block 2 you have a plethora of sp healing items on both games so it becomes less of an issue in general but its generally much harder to deal with in p3r

It sold less than SMTV

The music is worse (this alone is a good enough reason). The first 2 cutscenes are censored to the point of having bad direction. They cut out all the other weapon types the main character could use and limited him to just short swords. The game is too bright in just about every scene. Tartarus' corridors are too wide which makes avoiding enemies trivial. They let you choose your card at the end of fights with no shuffle because God forbid the player makes a mistake and doesn't get the optimal reward every single time. There's probably more downgrades but I only played it for a couple hours.

I can't sing the nonsense rap lyrics of the original songs with a friend because she only played Reload, and this sucks.
