truthiness about p3 beating p4

100% agree. You don't have to relate to a character for them to be well-written and dynamic. They don't have to be realistic to be believable. Yukari and Mitsuru's antagonism (and later Aigis') was much more interesting to me.

I will be hyperbolic and say that if I wanted to play Gossip Girl's Persona then I'd need a sex change first. I hate Yukiko and Chie's typical relationship. I'm only in May and because it's SMT I'll give it leeway for now, but hopefully the plot will pick up to the point where they have some more dynamic growth. I'm worried though, because when you find out your friend's deepest darkest secrets 1 week after meeting them, it doesn't really leave room for the relationship to grow -- instead, we just have people accepting that side and that's that.

iKotomi's right about the universal themes as well. It even permeates the character design. You instantly recognize the protagonist in P3 because he commands your attention and presence, from the mp3 player to the way he walks. Sensei has no such aura.

Oh well. Here's to Abaddon!
 
I am in a serious relationship with Yukiko right now. Does this effect the game in any way? and will anything bad happen if I am in a serious relation ship with the other girls? I was very set on being in a serious relation ship with Yukiko, but now that I have experienced the kawaiiness that is Rise... I think I want to be in one with her too!
 
To my knowledge, it only affects who asks you out in events like christmas, as well as screwing over some social links on weekends like Ai's. You can do the serious relationship with multiple people, but I'm assuming that it just overrides the last one.
 
i like nocturne cause it had dante from devil may cry in it :) and it was like pokemon/monster rancher except with demons
 
@mizuiro: I'm pretty sure if you've maxed a Social Link with a girl you're intimate with, there's no way to break it. So if you wanna chase Rise's skirt, I recommend you finish things with Yukiko if you haven't already. I just recently Na*** to join my harem with Chie so I'm good =D
