![]() ![]() Just as the story has seen dramatic alterations, the gameplay has seen similar improvements and revisions, even on its most fundamental levels. A trip to Inaba from Persona 4 and a 14-year-old Yukiko also feature prominently in the many changes, both minor and major, that Persona 3 Portable offers up. For Persona 3‘s female fans, the shower scene during the Lovers confrontation now features a towel clad Junpei or Akihiko, depending on who you choose to take with you. Disappointingly, you can no longer participate in Operation: Babe Hunt, but the infamous hot spring scene in Kyoto now sees you trying to capture the boys rather than evade capture as before. While attending this club, as well as while attending the sewing club with Bebe, you can now create items that can be given to your friends as gifts during Sunday excursions.Įven certain major events have been modified for the new perspective. Fuuka, for example, starts a cooking club and asks you to join. Other social links have been so thoroughly modified that they bear little resemblance to their original incarnations. This is particularly true for Shinjiro and Ryoji, whose social links are by far the highlight of FeMC’s game. Junpei, Akihiko, Ken, Shinjiro, Koromaru, and even Ryoji all receive their own social link, and these all help to expand upon the characters. Two of these, the leader of the Tennis or Volleyball club and a girl in charge of the school library, are brand new characters to the game, while the remaining six further enhance existing characters: your male allies. In Persona 3 Portable, for the female protagonist, eight of them have been completely redone with new characters, while most of the rest have been significantly altered. ![]() Veterans of Persona 3 FES should know that there are a total of twenty-two social links in the game. However, the changes are not as cut and dried as that. ![]() Characters who were a romantic interest are now just friends, and your friends from before become romantic interests. With FeMC, as the character is being affectionately labeled, in the lead, the entire game takes on a new perspective. With that in mind, Persona 3 Portable offers an incredible amount of new story content thanks to the addition of a new female protagonist. You’re the new transfer student starting at Gekkoukan High, and you find yourself drawn into a battle to save the world during the “hour between hours,” when everyone else is transformed into strange coffins. With that in mind, I will direct you to our copious number of Persona 3 reviews for all the nitty gritty of the game, while this review will instead focus on what’s new, and most importantly, why Persona 3 Portable is the best version of the game yet.īy and large, the story of Persona 3 Portable remains true, if not identical, to the original. I don’t have to retread any ground at all because there is an incredible amount of new content to cover, so much so that it feels like a brand new game. At least, this is normally the case, but Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 Portable is one of the rare exceptions to the rule. There’s only so much that can be said about a game, and while discussing the changes and issues the new version has is important, there’s only so much space that it can fill up, and this results in a lot of retreaded ground. I really don’t like reviewing ports of games I’ve already played and reviewed. ![]()
