I still think $70 is too much for a release of a remake or any new game for that matter. Tho I only pic games up. Now adays on sale anyways. But it's still the principle of the thing.
I'd be okay with $70 for this if FeMC was included, as that would mean a lot of branched content. They've said there will be (and shown) added content to make up for it, but that could shake out to being an extra two hours in the end.
I'm glad the UI and battle transitions look slick, though, if only to put the fan narrative that no one's making quality turn-based JRPGs to rest.
Still waiting to hear what the plan is for the FES content.
Didn’t they already say it doesn’t include the FES content?
They did, and that's a huge shame. I might wait it out in case they decide to re-release the remake too.
At this point, I'm kinda hoping they release it as DLC down the line. Would be sad having to pay double like that, but Atlus is alright by me.
If they made Royal a separate game, they might as well do it to FES Remake
FES wasn't a remake, just additional content re released. I would much rather it was included in this new version of the game, but bringing 3 "up to scratch" with where 5 put the series would require a huge revamping of the game, so I can accept FES being additional content later. I'd rather DLC than a new version of the game, though.
I'm talking about a future FES Remake. I'd rather if it was DLC too, but if Persona 5 Royal wasn't, then I'm not counting on it.
Adapting straight to FES would have taken just a little more effort than the overall remake did, so I'm distrustful of why they have done it like this.
Ahh, your wording of "re releasing the remake" confused me.
I feel the only reason Atlus is doing it this way is because they can squeeze more money out and that they've set the precedent since Persona 3, so the worst people can say is "they've been doing it this way since the PS2"
