Not sure how much you remember Persona 4, but during the school trip you end up going to Gekkoukan High School and meeting a few characters from Persona 3.
happens in this one too, at least in the original one. you meet Yukiko and in the club at the mall you can find Vincent from the Catherine games sitting at the bar drinking and talking about cheating. also there is an easter egg to persona 2. all the games have eggs in them but i haven't seen many in 3 compared to personas 4 & 5
@@personafanatic4597Not necessarily the original. Yukiko only shows in Portable if you play the female protagonist which came out after P4. As for Vincent, his cameo was also exclusive Portable and predates Catherine by a couple of years.
They did that as a little nod to persona 3 yup. hopefully they completely redo persona 4 and make it look as good or better than this one. Everyone loves Persona 4, it was amazing.
@@infiniteshay8660 yep. And as a background gag in Persona 1 the female protagonist from Shin Megami Tensei if... (Which some people jokingly refer to as persona 0) transfers to your school. She references the crazy stuff that went down the previous year in her school.
I know it's bizarre to see the P3 protag just walk around someplace that looks as weird as the Metaverse nonchalantly, but lemme tell you guys this: The P3 protag's synonymous with the phrase "I don't care" for a VERY good reason XD you'll see once you guys get to see the anime later.
You guys may not remember but the school in Persona 3 is the same school you visited on the school trip in Persona 4 Golden. Also the girl that you said looked like Ali was the student council president you saw on that trip.
I believe that Persona 3 was the first game in the series to introduce the Wild Card power of the Protagonist. Every Persona Protagonist since this game has both the Fool Arcana, and the Wild Card power, meaning they can use multiple Personas. (The Fool Arcana is also the number 0 in a Tarot Deck. Fitting since each Protagonist is a blank slate, and the player makes the choices).
P3 was the first to make it an explicit power of the protagonist, in p1 and P2, your entire party could switch personas. What arcana they were determined how compatible they were with various personas.
That's correct, and to expand on that.. the persona 1 protagonist (Naoya or Jihei, whichever you want) is of the Emperor Arcana, meanwhile the persona 2 Innocent Sin protagonist (Tatsuya) is the Sun Arcana
Fun fact, that part in Persona 4 where your friends got drunk off the atmosphere? Yeah this is the town you went to. They even talked about the school. Also the Kabuto headed dude is the brother of the teacher with the pharoah hat. Hes even referenced in one of the class days lol
As someone who played through both FES and Portable, I'm so excited to see how things remain the same or change in this. But even more so, I'm excited to see you guys and your first impressions to the game. I've been waiting for this!
and once they beat this one, they will have beaten all the important persona games, cause lets be honest, a lot of people started at 3, and never played the first 2 lol
Alright, so that mysterious boy in what looks like prison garb... His voice sounded familiar, so I looked it up, and Ali is gonna LOVE this: Apparently, he used to have Yuri Lowenthal as his VA, and now in Reload it's Aleks Le - aka Vivia from Rain Code!
You two have found your favorite girl which is also my favorite girl, Mitsuru! 💖 Also Mitsuru is voiced by Allegra Clark also known as Boss from AI the Somnium Files whom you'd be most familiar with.
While they were all over the advertising, I figure I'll list the Voice Cast/etc so far: Strange Boy - Aleks Le (Vivia Twilight - Rain Code) Protagonist - Aleks Le Yukari Takeba - Heather Gonzalez Mitsuru Kirijo - Allegra Clark (Boss/Shizue Kuranushi - AI: The Somnium Files series) Junpei Iori - Zeno Robinson Chihiro Fushimi - Kelly Baskin
@@destinydivided8689 Waruna was actually voiced by Suzie Yeung. There's a couple of roles Heather and Zeno have done that I think were from things Ali and Evan have seen or possibly played, but since I'm not sure, I didn't list them.
What we've all been waiting for! And it is so glorious how the characters look & love the voice cast of this. Looking forward to your playthrough! Hope you both enjoy it and hope people will be respectful of the way you guys play as we know you guys have done amazing in both P5R & P4G! 💖

"Halcyon", It's an adjective that describes a period of time in the past that was idyllically happy and peaceful. It can also refer to a bird, often associated with the kingfisher, said to have the power to calm the wind and waves while nesting on the sea during the winter solstice.

@@Max1996YT well, to be Fair, I Just copied and pasted by someone. But yeah that Is the text from the opening. Not everythinh, Just some of the most apparent one
There are some small changes in this remake nothing ground breaking, at least so far what I could notice as a old Person 3 veteran. The biggest changes are in the rearrangement of cut scenes where some anime cut scenes in P3 Original FES were replaced with now in game 3D model cut scenes while other cut scenes what were in game in original got now anime cut scenes. Can't wait to see you finally playing this emotional MASTERPIECE! 💙
Yes yes yes!! I'm so excited for this!! I started my own playthrough last night and went through P3 Portable last year. This game is so amazing!! And you two are doing great with the voices already
Evan I thought we got through this multiple times with P5R and P4G, always have a keyboard with you while playing the beginning of a Persona game on PC 😂
I think it's time for them to get a cheap Bluetooth keyboard for these things. Aside from entering your name, we still don't know if Deltarune is going to require typing an essay during a boss fight.
As a long fan of Persona 3 who played it multiple times I can tell you, you are in for a WILD ride! The emotions you go through in this game are disgustingly good it will crush you but also make you appreciate life and maybe have a self reflection moment and yeah... Can't wait to see your reaction to this masterpiece like the reaction of Pixel Partners, keep us up to date what you think about certain moments in the game after they obviously happen in one of Pixel Partners parts videos.
I’m a massive fan of Persona 3 and I’ve already played quite a bit of this. I’m happy this will be people’s first experience to this story hope you guys enjoy
What a nice video to start a day with! I've been excited for Reloaded since the first trailer came out and I'm glad to see you get into it as soon as you can.
22:40 You met her in Persona 4. When the characters took that class trip to this school. She's older in that one, obviously. 50:00 Yeah, Allegra Clark will do that to you. One of the best VAs in the biz right now. (She was Shamir and Dorothea in Fire Emblem: Three Houses if you played that. She's also Beidou in Genshin.)
@@muchiiuchii6368 thanks! I have finished P3 FES, but it was a long time ago.. I want my rerun of this beautiful game to be as spoiler-free as my first playthrough.. :)
finally a really good channel is playing this game. So excited. Things you may have noticed but worth bringing up anyway: text bubbles and those little lines above groups heads turn sort of gray when you are done talking to them, There's nothing for you to listen to that is new unless it appears as BLUE.
Ah, this takes me back. P3 FES was my first Persona game, and the first game to pull me into the SMT/Raidou Kuzonoha games. I went backwards from this game and i to P2 and P1 then the Shin Megami Tensei games.
I have a feeling this game is going to be Ali and Evan's favorite of the three modern Personas. It's pretty well rounded in general to begin with in the original and with Reload revamping so many things and moments and characters and just giving it the general polish it's long needed, I have a feeling the issues they had with 4 and 5 won't be very present alongside the positives they liked of both as well. Very excited to see their reactions to the characters and story of this game.
I love how Personas 5 and 4 had Evan and Ali disagreeing over which girl to pursue, but we're only one episode into 3 and they're already in total agreement.
I’m kinda late on this but man your guys channel has been such a fun find. I found it when you were doing P5R and then watched all that, and your P4G playthrough, now we’re at P3R.
For what I know, Persona 3 is within my top 3 favorite Game openings. The dark hour, the gun to the head, the atmosphere, it might even be my 2nd favorite, only losing to Breath of the Wild’s fantastic opening.
I still wish that this game had the og voices, but the ones they have are pretty good... except I still vastly prefer Michelle Ruff and Liam O'Brien as their characters.
@@Dubbel12 Yeah, so far in my own playthrough I notice they've ATTEMPTED to make Yukari less a raging bitch this time around. Likely because they plan on making The Answer a dlc add-on.
I literally did a Mini let’s play of this game and it is filled with a lot of ‘in matpat’s tone’ LOOOOOORE Also two of the original voice actors for the og persona 3 was yuri lowenthal and tara platt
Persona 3 is by far my favorite. It has some of my favorite characters, the story is really well done, and the original has my favorite song of all time in the end credits.
One thing that seems to be different from the main game is that you walk from the station instead of starting the game walking into the dorm. Otherwise, short of some wording changes and camera angles, it's more or less the same as the original.
Ah yes butterflies Edit: I can confirm I haven't seen vast majority of students at any of my schools after graduating :'D I'd be surprised if that wasn't a common experience
Persona 5, I was very familiar with. Persona 4, I was playing for the first time right when you guys started it. Persona 3, the extent of my knowledge is that I know what some of the characters look like and that the general consensus is this game has the best story in the series. Honestly, that alone is enough to get me interested! (Also, blue is my favorite color, so, y'know... Not biased or anything, but it's looking good)
So far no drastic changes from original (I'm most familiar with FES so I'll use that to compare with reload.) The VA recast isn't as catastrofic as I expected but I'm saving my final verdict after hearing beanie boy and headphones blonde.
Holy hell I'm still trying to catch up with the last few playthroughs but I'll be dammed if I miss my favorite Persona game. Hoping you'll enjoy your playthrough!
lol just came at the right time, just wanted to say one thing: I would advise to put the game's brightness to 3-4 steps on the left, cause on the default, the game has issues regarding Ambient Occulsion so some areas look reaaaally flat with no "depth" whatsoever (shadows ecc), but putting the brightness a little down does seem to almost fix the issue. Found this on reddit
I find it so funny how they're fixed on this "Best friend = chariot" thing. Eikichi from Innocent Sin was Death, Ulala from Eternal Punishment was Star, Junpei is Magician, Yosuke is Magician. Ryuji is the only Chariot best friend character in the franchise.
I’m curious to see you guys check out this. It’s better than trying out the PSP port first…which is weirdly the only way to play the original version of the game in current day systems. With you guys now at Persona 3 (it’s kinda funny how you guys are playing these games in reverse, but to be fair not much of the fandom are caring too much about the first 2 Persona games) does that mean you guys might tackle Persona Q & Q2 someday? They’re basically spin-offs that have the characters of P3 to 5 have a crossover with each other. Sounds like a fun way to ease the tensions of the main series.
Welp, now that youve said it, here you go! Halceon, the Winter Solstice Pokemon. Flying Type. As this Eeveelution soars through the winter skies, it calms the winds by those it considers friends. Edit: Just realized i should give context: Halcyon has more than one meaning, and the one I used was an Ancient Mythical Bird that laid its eggs during winter in a floating nest
Can't wait to you see how you guys like Persona 3. As a fan of P3 (Tied favorite with P5) I'm loving Reload and it's so far a great remake of the original. Also yes Mitsuru is stunning, the best girl ever made.
Words cannot express how disappointed I am that Evan did not once accidentally refer to this game as Persona 5 Royal. Oh well, we’ve got another 80+ parts for him to do so, I’m sure it’ll happen eventually!
You should listen to the npcs with portraits 2 times since they have dialogues even after you talk to them once. You are missing a lot of dialogue if you don't do that.
Man, I can already tell this is gonna be my favorite playthrough of this game. Not only it's a first P3R playthrough, but you guys are also completely blind to P3 in general! Btw, I doubt I need to tell you this but just in case, DON'T watch the opening! Leave it for after completing the game
Not sure how much you remember Persona 4, but during the school trip you end up going to Gekkoukan High School and meeting a few characters from Persona 3.
Yeah, one of which is Chihiro, because I remember Yosuke commenting on her.
I thought that girl looked familiar! I believe the principal appeared during that trip too

Everyone loves Persona 4, it was amazing.
Fun fact: Provided I'm not misremembering, Persona 3 is what started the whole 'transfer student' schtick.
Indeed, the P1 and P2 protags were already at the school when the gamrs started
P3 started most of the modern Persona tropes. The Wild Card ability, social stats, confidants/social links, the calendar system, they all started here
Well there was a transfer student in persona 2 but it was a party member from the first game joining you on your journey.
@@infiniteshay8660 yep. And as a background gag in Persona 1 the female protagonist from Shin Megami Tensei if... (Which some people jokingly refer to as persona 0) transfers to your school. She references the crazy stuff that went down the previous year in her school.
For persona sure. But it was absolutely an established galge trope way before p3 l ao.
I love how we're going through the Persona series in reverse. Can't wait until Atlas remakes Persona 2.
I'd love a remake, or even something like the ff pixel remaster. P2 was probably the series at its most bonkers.
Honestly with how 1 and 2 are more connected to each other compared to 3, 4, and 5 I'd prefer if they remade Persona 1 first.
@ArcanaIXNot really a remake so much as a remaster
hahahahah that's on the bingo card of "things Atlas will never do again"
@ArcanaIX Just like how they did with Radiant Historia (that was a DS game and then rereleased on the 3DS).
The mutual "HELLO?" when Mitsuru appeared lmao
45:00 Fun Fact: Mitsuru is voiced by Allegra Clark, while Sae is voiced by Elizabeth Maxwell!

I would advise to put the game's brightness to 3-4 steps on the left, cause on the default, the game has issues regarding Ambient Occulsion so some areas look reaaaally flat with no "depth" whatsoever (shadows ecc), but putting the brightness a little down does seem to almost fix the issue. Found this on reddit
(also, the FES version, especially in the dorms, was muuuch more moodier and generally darker overall, so yea a bonus 😅)
i already have 8 hours in this game and my god i was waiting for u guys to get to it
I've played P3P, but probably won't be playing this remake, so I'm loooking forward to seeing you guys go through it.
"I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!"
Also i believe rifling, IE competitive skeet shooting and targer shooting, clubs exist in Japan
I find it so funny how they're fixed on this "Best friend = chariot" thing. Eikichi from Innocent Sin was Death, Ulala from Eternal Punishment was Star, Junpei is Magician, Yosuke is Magician. Ryuji is the only Chariot best friend character in the franchise.
1:00 It wasn't hidden in the first place. All anyone had to do was look at it. And not look away like your average idiot reactor normally does. :)
Weird. Didn't remember Zero Time Dilemma looking this Kool with a capital K.
If Ali was a junior in high school, then I was still a baby
I’m curious to see you guys check out this. It’s better than trying out the PSP port first…which is weirdly the only way to play the original version of the game in current day systems.
With you guys now at Persona 3 (it’s kinda funny how you guys are playing these games in reverse, but to be fair not much of the fandom are caring too much about the first 2 Persona games) does that mean you guys might tackle Persona Q & Q2 someday? They’re basically spin-offs that have the characters of P3 to 5 have a crossover with each other. Sounds like a fun way to ease the tensions of the main series.
Welp, now that youve said it, here you go!
Halceon, the Winter Solstice Pokemon.
Flying Type.
As this Eeveelution soars through the winter skies, it calms the winds by those it considers friends.
Edit: Just realized i should give context: Halcyon has more than one meaning, and the one I used was an Ancient Mythical Bird that laid its eggs during winter in a floating nest
This game’s got them bops I’m telling you.
Can't wait to you see how you guys like Persona 3. As a fan of P3 (Tied favorite with P5) I'm loving Reload and it's so far a great remake of the original. Also yes Mitsuru is stunning, the best girl ever made.
So Tenmyoldy WAS a fake last name, his last name was Iori! tsk tsk tsk
Don't mind the nitpick, but technically, *Tenmyoldy* was a nickname.

Well if you have any doubts on why the mc doesn't care about the surroundings you will have to see the anime movies for better understanding.
A fan theory of P3 is that Young Ryuji is in the game.

Words cannot express how disappointed I am that Evan did not once accidentally refer to this game as Persona 5 Royal. Oh well, we’ve got another 80+ parts for him to do so, I’m sure it’ll happen eventually!
You should listen to the npcs with portraits 2 times since they have dialogues even after you talk to them once. You are missing a lot of dialogue if you don't do that.
My favourite one, hurray!
I'd love to see your reactions to p3r's opening as well!
Man, I can already tell this is gonna be my favorite playthrough of this game. Not only it's a first P3R playthrough, but you guys are also completely blind to P3 in general!
Btw, I doubt I need to tell you this but just in case, DON'T watch the opening! Leave it for after completing the game
Finally
Working mirrors!
I’ve seen this recommendation before to turn down the brightness three notches and it does improve the overall appearance imo.
Yayy!!! And so the journey begins!!! 🤩🤩
My name is Earnest. Earnest Student
We are Persona over this Reload
Isn't it weird how people don't remember how mp3 players used to look like?
Man 2009.
What was everyone up to 15 years ago?
I was busy being 14 so I have zero memories lol
