Ah nothing like giving impressionable youth a game that makes them think if they blow their brains out they’ll get super powers.

I mean this game is set in and made by people in Japan, gun culture is very different there. “Impressionable youths” wouldn’t even have access to a gun.
Also, the visual of teens shooting themselves in the head is very much a thematic point, as Japan’s teen suicide rate is very much a systemic issue they were (and are still) grappling with when the story was written.

Right. Also shooters makes you murderous and anime games make you a pedophile because no one ever can distinguish real life from games.

How would that work? Considering I mean that past studies have always shown that this doesn’t work like that for kids learning things from fictional works.
(nevermind that there’s no way they’d have a gun except in some really ass backwards countries without any gun laws)

Lol the game comes with major trigger warnings the moment you boot it up, not to mention it’s not for kids.
But damn, stay away from the likes of Doki Doki Literature Club if you think this game is bad.

Last I checked, the game was rated M for mature.
If your kids are playing this, it’s your fault. It’s weirdly sexual, too.

Now if only FATLUS port other mainline Megaten games into PC/steam at reasonable price. Seeing Noctune on steam was like fever dream, not to mention that rumour SMTV for PC release from Geforce Now leak ;_;

Yes. You can emulate almost every mainline Megaten games. However, native pc port lets user to have accessibility (especially for casual user) instead of going through steps setup emulator. Paired that with reasonable regional price (except I doubt in the case of ATLUS/SEGA), they can have free money printer while at the same time adds more availability to how you play them.

Does this include gamepass downloads? Either way that’s great. I’m glad Atlus has recently brought their games over to PC and xbox

Fk ya. More Persona pls.
Prob cause it was available on all major platforms on release.
And it was an international release as well.
From the wiki: “ of their psyche known as a Persona, which they summon by firing a gun-like object called an “Evoker” at their head.”
Ummm, what?
Early spoilers for P3/Reload, but yeah this is actually how you use your powers in P3. Skip to 1:24 if the time stamp doesn’t work.
Trigger warning for anime teen shooting himself in the head, there is no blood or bits.
Anyways, I really like P3, I hope Persona 2 duology gets a remake like this (it won’t).
