Persona 2 PSP: Innocent Sin & Eternal Punishment PACK now please.

[Deykkcaos]

it's time to see these two games merged in a definitive remaster/remake to PC, can we have it please?

look at it from their perspective (hint, MONEYMONEYMONEYMONEYMONEYMONEYMONEY) and you'll see why they'll never do a remake of any old game. a low effort psp port at the very most, as long as they're sure they can make money off of it, but considering p1 and 2's lack of popularity that's not gonna happen.

for me persona 2 is better than 3 (my opinion) and of course both games came to a psp port with new hd features (this is for me a reason to recognize this type of game as popular in jp/western) it would be unfair to say that it's less popular considering that it's a game that was only present in a previous generation of consoles, maybe we'll be lucky to have a remake/remaster of the two games together :)

a remaster aka upscaling with filters more likely, like p3 and p4. there's no way they'll make a full blown remake, it would cost far too much to redo everything in 3d, rerecord all the music, redraw all the graphics and so on for something they already made the bulk of money from in the past.

As far as I remember, we never got official english release of the Eternal Punishment(or was it the Innocent Sin) on PSP... They should pack it with the first persona then as some sort of collection.

2 is just mind-blowing, personas after 3 are totally different games in terms of gamedesign.

EP's PSP remake didn't get an (official) English release. But there is the American release of the PS1 game if you can deal with the old-fashioned nature.

I can see why they wouldn't bother with those games because there is so much that would be very offputting now - there are the random battles, and grid exploration is clunky, and there are no (real) social link equivalents, and it doesn't have the "one more" system for weaknesses, and there's nothing like the calendar downtime, and negotiation can be tedious at first. On the other hand, there are things you can do to make your experience with P2 more enjoyable, like making use of Estoma (no random battles with low level foes) when exploring, or eventually figuring out more negotiations.

I agree that a full blown remake would be a lot of work, but I feel like they'd need to do *something* to ease players in a bit - even if it's just pop up text box hints about how to enjoy it's antiquated gameplay.

i hope they'll do even just PSP ports. P2 is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ masterpiece

I'd hope they do a remake instead of a remaster.
I decided to finally play P1 and P2 for the first time and I finished P1(PSP).
So far in P2:IS(PSP), while I am enjoying the game, the battles and demon contact systems are both extremely slow compared to P1.

Battle system for example even with skipped animations turned on, the game will wait for the damage to display and then wait for the damage number to fade away before moving on to the next attack which would then repeat the process.

AoE's don't make it that much better either, it'll display the damage one at a time instead of all at the same time.

I found myself constantly using the emulator's Speed Up constantly for P2:IS.

YES YES YES..even though i hated the asylum level..i think the games are awesome. I never played the first half, but loved the second half on playstation 1. The rumour system was pretty awesome too.

It would be nice, but if it were to happen it would probably be little more than the same treatment that Persona 3 is receiving on Steam. An upscaled port of the PSP versions - not that i have a problem with it aside from the music in the first game. Revelations: Persona's music was so much better than the PSP remake, but oh well.

Someone will mod the ps1 music in if they mess that up.

Honestly, i don't care at all for a remaster. I only want to play with My achievements, Trading Cards, Cloud Save, and some other enhancments like difficulty and the localization

if it has denuvo permanently ingrained id rather not. been a pain in the ass for me on my deck tbh
