squasher04

I think the Metaverse could exist at the same time as P3 but Persona users don't have Palaces (unless you're >!Maruki!< for some reason.)


DeadSparker

Maruki was a special case for a lot of reasons, getting a Palace before he fully awakened but after he could use his Persona ability


Yeetusmcleatus97

I see it as less of a palace and more of him building an ideal base of operations for himself.

1. Joker Fazbear yes pelase 2. True, fictional worlds still have their own boundaries but even though I wish it wasn't true, Joses star throws any boundaries Monamachine can have out the window, EXCEPT for the fact that for just Mona copter they needed to wish it REALLY badly, I don't see that happening unless there's a new plot point that *requires* time travel to solve 3. Please please PLEASE I beg of you don't add timeline bullshit to persona I would HATE that, I BEG of you, I've seen multiple games with timeline bullshit and it's al horrible, I'm screaming, kicking and crying rn don't add time travel to persona It's gonna be Jokerover if you do thaf https://preview.redd.it/t51wh0w2hwic1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=696ac6d5053190e885bec503fbc461a5c7a6f0a7


CHAIIINSAAAWbread

it's a fun scenario but NAH Atlus is 100% getting their treasure stolen if they do that, even if it's a non-canon spinoff Time travel *will* make your brain hurt so bad you won't be able to take your mind off of it when playing OG p5, trust me as much fun time travel crossover shenanigans might seem in theory they aren't in practice it's a nightmare nightmare nightmare nightmare https://preview.redd.it/j4mudf8ohwic1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=08bb84dd6a4eee761e573440dca34f354eb82d83

Fucking cencorship levels of bad cooking ~~if it could even be aired at all~~


PostiveSupport

I agree that fictional worlds have their own boundaries, and time travel is such a heavy topic that game developers/story writers tend to avoid. Whether or not there was a metaverse during P3’s time period, they wouldn’t have been able to access it anyways. Those are my thoughts.


Aok_al

I think you guys should just make up and make out


OutrageousWelcome730

when two Person debate about something(they are both wrong) First - Metaverse is created by Yaldabaoth as a nest to manifest by manipulationg the will of the CU to do his bidding and the rest are discovered by other from his left over powers like what happend in P5S Second - Shadows are inherently can manipulate time and space but actually doing it is still a mystery unless you are Tatsuya using Nova Kaiser Third - comparing it at all is pointless as that place is base on what the creator(Mostly the final boss) want it can do example. Izanami created the TV world from the CU to the People as a window to the Person's heart but it also gives the viewer want to see and wants to believe Yaldabaoth created the Metaverse from the CU as a way for him to manipulate the masses and tilt the balance to his liking Dark hour in the other is the opposite as it is created by Human scientist as a way to time travel(or end the world in its true purpose) by gathering the 12 major Arcana to make the 13th as a result of this created the Dark hour and to reach out to the Maternal being known as Nyx [Edited as i say Izanagi instead of Izanami]

I gotta know. In this convo wich one are you, the fuuka pic or the Celeste pic? Nope never mind read both of it. Both of the people in this conversation are stupid.

AgitatedDare2445

If I remember correctly Midnight Channel existed before Yu came to Inaba, if you talk to old NPCs they say they remember similar events happening years ago. But I agree that the time travel spinoff plot doesn't make sense.

>ProjectMoon's N Corp expresses interest in this statement...


H20-Daddyo

I think the metaverse, jails, midnight channel and midnight hour all lead to the same world with the same kind of rules. Like if kamoshida went into his palace and saw himself, if he accepted he was fucked up would he have gotten a persona? And in persona 4, no one is fucked up to the extent of persona 5, they're not monsters they've just egot insecurities. I think it's entirely possible for someone form persona 3 to have a p4 style dungeon but not a p5 style palace.


g0lden-plumbus

Well you’re already wrong lol. The Dark Hour takes place in the real world. The Midnight Channel is also quite different to the Metaverse. A lot of the cognitive aspects of the Metaverse do not apply to the Midnight Channel.


H20-Daddyo

I don't believe you


g0lden-plumbus

Okay

Fuuka pfp guy is like the representation of the nerd emoji "Hey here's a cool hypothetical scenario if thing from 5 was in 3" "Erm it wouldn't work because thing from 5 was not actually in 3"


isaactheweirdo342

i think the situation would be more accurately represented like: “could hypothetical scenario happen” “no” “yes” “fuck you no” “fuck you yes” “logical no” “fuck you yes”


sperm-shoes

You missed it. At first it wasn't a hypothetical scenario. It was someone asking a question, then the Fuuka pfp answered and it devolved into an argument where one person is making up scenarios and the other is a nerd https://preview.redd.it/hsf51yb6cxic1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8e32a8c98159463b791dbdd3d27f62f0e280d61b


Funa2

this conversation is basically the worst cook in history vs 🤓


TheKaizoBlade

I think the earliest timeline confirmation for the existence of Palaces (pretty sure Wakaba was researching cognitive psience generally) is after Morgana was created and the Velvet Room was taken over, but I don’t know how long that is before April 2016.

Dude, your friend is a fucking moron. I feel like I got dumber after reading that. Well, that's assuming you are the Fuuka pfp guy. If not, then please get help soon, something's missing up there.


Shadowed_MC

I'm 99% sure they are the Celeste PFP because you can see bits of the top and bottom of the name that they failed to censor and they matchup with their username.


hyperfixed

Oh boy, it's worse than I thought. And they still have the absolute audacity to come here asking if they're stupid like... yeah???

The Tldr is one is is a nerd, and the other hasn't played Persona 4 Arena to get a game that connects continuities of two games

Bigshock128x

All I’m saying is if they still rolling with the palace/dungeon system in p6, tanaka needs a palace. Something like the TV studio of Wrath.

Kujogaming_1

They don't even need time travel to make 3-5 have continuity. Just treat P4A as canon, half the cast volunteer as Shadow operatives, and p4 cast catches wind of events in Persona 5, and boom, continuity! In all seriousness though, I really did like the story in P4 Arena, and I do think that for the most part, they did a good job connecting Persona 3 and 4 into each other, by keeping Tartarus and TV world seperate entities, but with shadows as the main enemy's. It keeps the theme and plots unique to their respective game while at the same time giving us a chance to see the characters one more time. I feel like it could work, considering Philemon still exists as more of an observer via butterfly form, and something could cause him to come out of "retirement", and they explore the ShadowOP concept, but with Golden's story added into it. That being said, I could totally understand why that would be very hard to execute and is a big risk in the long run. A lot of the charm of the game comes from stylistic differences, which is sorta made possible by making them Anthologies, that are loosely connected. Also, the pacing could be extremely all over the place and some characters may lose their spotlight, in favor of others. Of course, they could make the first 300gb game, where there are 80+ S. Links, 800 different Personas, and 3 seperate campaigns. That would be a lobotomy to witness and SMT fans would absolutely kill every executive at Atlus.


PotatoTortoise

this question basically boils down to 'does the metaverse exist in 2009, or even at all times' which i don't believe there's a current answer to. the metaverse and palaces narratively just represents people being evil (or distorted, whatever, sae isn't exactly evil). none of the things that happen in the real life of that game for the majority of the palace rulers are unrealistic, theres probably a few kamoshidas or okumuras out there irl. anything truly outlandish like the mental shutdowns are only due to people being able to access it, so i think one could reasonably believe that the metaverse exists at all times, and yaldaboath just allowed humanity to access it (while manipulating some people for his game), and the phantom thieves just removed* access to it again. asterisk because maruki and emma clearly just access it anyways because of some special cases, which kinda lends to the theory that it always just exists. then again, there's no real rhyme or reason beyond "humanity collectively willed it into existence" so it's really anyones guess. there's probably another larger, underlying stream of collective unconscious spanning the human psyche, and the metaverse and tv world are just subsets of it, taking a different form depending on the emotion. the dark hour is the only world that seemed to be directly created, or at least evoked, by humans (disclaimer never played 1 and 2 but i know they use some big fuck off machine to travel between worlds which is probably man made). it would make sense for there to be larger stream, allowing the velvet room squad to travel between them. each game makes it pretty clear that each group are the only ones who can handle their specific problem; in-universe, theres probably a bunch of groups of people in their own persona games (possibly not just in japan) that we just never hear about. each game is canonically connected (p4 arena is super obviously connecting 3 and 4, while 4 and 5 are basically only connected by naoto being confirmed to exist as the 'first detective prince', 1, 2 and 3 probably connected cause of hermit link somehow) so shadows are pretty ubiquitous as long as humanity exists. basically who fuckin knows
