Well, I just finished Persona 2 and I didn't even realize this thread was here. >_> Although EP was the first Persona game I've played, it definitely got me into the series in general with the dark and mature themes. And I didn't think it was god awful like some people here expressed it to be. I didn't have anything to compare it to and I thought it was great. I've read up on wikipedia that IS and EP both had very drastically different storylines (especially regarding the Suou bros), so it's not necessary to play IS to enjoy EP. That part is true since I didn't feel like I have some
need to play IS.
It was a good thing I played it on an emulator, because gollllllly those dungeons can be a pain in the ass. I just sped it up to twice the speed (by turning off sound) to whiz through them. And thankfully for mutations, I can just quickly reload the last attack of the battle to see if I can get persona rank +2 (or mutate to a higher level persona). And other various tricks and things I learned while using the emulator.
If you can't stand a random, sometimes annoying, battle every five seconds, then I suggest playing with an emulator. Now this got me considering if I should play Nocturne or DDS, especially if "leveling" will be a painful experience since I can't emulate PS2 games. Regardless, if it's good, I'll play it.
By the way, is there a difference between the SMT and Persona series? I'm new so I don't quite understand any details of the franchise.
Persona 3 looks awesome, but the character designer is different from the really offsettling creepy designs that got me attracted to EP. I mean, those character/persona designs are bad ass. Regardless, the videos on IGN look really hot. Is the battle theme really hip hop? And blasting a bullet into your head is probably one of the more creative ways I've seen of summoning something. That's going to hold well with emo kids. I just hope the US version doesn't edit that out with a lollipop or something.
How ya doing, buddy?
