Persona 6 is so fucked its unbelievable.
>Literally the heart and soul of the current series as we know, Hashino, left the team and IP.
>Do did Soejima.
>P5 like it or not was the final fantasy 7 of its generation. A huge cultural phenomenom that went and inspired other games like Expedition, Honkai,Fire Emblem 3 Houses,etc.
>Then Hashino made Metaphor, one of the most critically acclaimed rpgs since P5.
>P5 is more than a decade old and even now there is literally no info about P6. P5 at least had a teaser trailer during the P4-5 wait time. Denoting no vision for the game up to this point.
>Until recently they are training the team with the Remakes. So these last 10 years they have been sitting on their asses regarding P6.
>The first remake censores an small controversial scene in both japanese and overseas wereas P5 only censored it in the west, denoting that the series is being censored internally to appeal to western sensibilities. P4R will likely be even worse here.
>The above meaning rather than Persona appealing only to the japanese straight audience, it will embrace normie western sensibilities aka lgbtq.
>No adult dating in P5X despite its adult romance cast being extremely popular in the original. Denoting avoiding content their core fanbase like because it gives normies the ick.
>The current Persona Team is made of people who have not made anything original, just coasting on Hashino's works.
>P5 has been in dev hell for a decade with no info and hype from P5 and Metaphor building up. Hence the chances of being unable to match the hype increases.
>There is no way they can make a protag as cool as Joker. The face of the genre.
Does anyone really have any hope for P6 being anything but underwhelming?
