The idea of an Akechi story mode sounds like a really interesting idea, would be cool to see his actions behind the scenes during the main story, or even play through some of his operations before the main story. I think his gameplay could be quite different as well, you could have him recruit shadows as party members through his psychotic breakdown powers or show some of his hinted wildcard abilities.

More collectibles not tied to confidants would be cool, I think you could tie it into creating new activities to do during the day as it is quite easy to settle into a routine in the game at the moment.

While it could be cool story wise, I think a Twin story line would be a struggle to make difficult considering how powerful the game makes them out to be. Perhaps letting us play though their separation and the battle before that with Yaldabaoth would be pretty sweet.

I've thought about multiplayer aspects for the Persona games but I think that sort of thing would have to be it's own game with the amount of balancing needed. I'm definitely looking forward to a P5 Arena game if they announce one!

I think Persona 5 has definitely helped open up the community for new players who may have been intimadated by the older games or just didn't get around to them. Just a few weeks ago I was able to introduce a friend of mine who tends to hate JRPGs to Persona 5 and he's really getting into it, so it must be doing something right!

I had the same feeling, after finishing the game in a two week binge I didn't feel the drive to go back through it (there is the bonus fight with the Twins but it doesn't feel like enough to bring me back in for another playthrough). I'm not sure whether story based DLC is Atlus' particular style of expanding on their mainline games, many people are expecting a Persona 5 re-release in the same vein as P4:Golden or P3:FES and I think that might be the route they go down. I would defintely be down for some DLC though, even it was just extra requests to do for some more interesting battle scenarios, maybe even fighting the previous games Velvet Room attendents would be awesome!

What do you think about the idea of a Persona 5 re-release, and what sort of additions would you like to see made? (Apologies for the wall of text :P)

Can't believe Persona 5 has been out for this long and nobody is talking about it in this group! What did you guys think of it? Favourite track, character, persona, anything! :D

Nice addon man, keep up the good work. Gotta keep spreading that Persona hype! :)

Looked so cool, can't wait for its release! So hyped!!

Maybe after P5 is released or as a side project with a small team, an online mode could be conceived which allowed players to create a character and play with or against others, might be interesting. However, the one thing i do hate is shoe-horned multiplayer so i hope it isnt put in P5 purely on a whim, rather if they did decide to do it then take time to do it and make sure the base game doesnt suffer for it

I did like it as it did give consequences for spending large amounts of time in Tartarus, but levelling up your courage basically made it impossible to get tired unless it was after a boss battle. I would like it to return in P5 as it would be weird for a teenager being able to spend hours fighting shadows and not get tired!

Do you like the social stat system, levelling up stats like academics or charm? I liked it as it gave me more choices for things to do on days i wasnt in a dungeon or with a S-Link. Would like to see that return but maybe don't lock away certain S-Links with stat requirements as i'd much rather get the S-Link without having to drink coffee every day to raise my charm in P3! But i guess if that were to be done, it would make the system kind of redundant so maybe dont mess with it too much!

I also really liked P4 and has some of my favourite characters of the series as a whole, if they keep making games based around P4 ill still keep buying them!

I'm not sure about Vita Support for the game really, i hope they do because if they allowed saves to be transferred between consoles, i could play on the go and continue when i get home! They may do something similar to P3P where they change the game slightly to run on different hardware, regardless I do hope they do bring it to Vita.

I don't reckon it would come to Xbox One as Microsoft aren't as close to Japanese developers like Atlus as Sony are and none of the main series Persona games have appeared on Xbox, but the appearance of Persona 4 Arena and Ultimax on 360 does still make it a possibility.

What one thing do you NOT want in P5? Also, this is an odd question but do you think a form of multiplayer would ever work in the series? I would be worried if they did do it as it may cause less time spent on the series brilliant single player experience, but a spin-off with multiplayer may be interesting...

That would be great, it was weird maxing out a link then never talking to them again and just moving to the next one.
Being able to do these other activities with the S-Links would make you feel even more invested with them and generally make you feel like you're friends!

What do think of the thief aesthetic that they are going for in P5? Also, what do you think about Persona 4: Dancing All Night? Personally i think it looks like fun but it may be best to let P4 rest now after the remake and two fighting games...

The idea seems ok, but i would much rather collect personas through shuffle time rather than collect them through fighting.
I think that they won't stray too far from how Persona already works to avoid it becoming similar to how the Shin Megami Tensai games currently do it
it might also be interesting to see why we're fighting personas and not typical shadows

What would be the one thing that you want added to Persona 5?
I'm honestly not sure what i would want added in Persona 5, maybe more character customization not only in the dungeons, but during the day-time doing S-Links and stuff? I liked the outfits in P4 but maybe some more detailed customizing might be nice?

I know, most excited i've been for a game in ages!!
She looks pretty cool and fits with the red/black/white colour scheme the game is going for (like the blue in P3) and seem to be like Teddie in that she's this mysterious animal that no-one is really sure where she is from, and seems to be linked to the game's theme of the seven sins
I am quite interested in what Morgana turns out to be! Your thoughts?
