Persona 3 Portable - Gameplay Walkthrough [Part 2] - PlayJamUK
5The second video walkthrough, titled "What's New," details the enhancements and additions of one of the biggest, deepest, and most satisfying handheld roleplaying games of all time--particularly the inclusion of an all new playable female protagonist.
Persona 3 Portable is an enhanced remake of Persona 3 for the PlayStation Portable. It was released in Japan on November 1, 2009. It has a North American release date of July 6, 2010.
Atlus have revealed that the player will have the option to play as a female character. This selection alters some aspects of the story: the first Persona gained by the Protagonist, Orpheus, will have a different appearance; Igor's assistant in the Velvet Room, Elizabeth, will be replaced with a male equivalent named Theodore. The gender choice also alters some aspects of the Social Link stories.
In addition to the new playable character, there are two new difficulty levels to select from, alongside the original game's three. The remake will include only the original game's story (The Journey from Persona 3, however keeping the enhancements made in Persona 3 FES). However, general changes have been made to the plot, regardless of character choice.
The game's revised battle system draws on elements added in Persona 3's successor, Persona 4. In combat, the player is able to directly control every character, as an alternative to utilizing the game's artificial intelligence. The ability to guard has been added, and allies will take fatal attacks for the Protagonist, preventing his or her death.
Outside of Tartarus, instead of navigating the game world by directly controlling the Protagonist, the player guides an on-screen cursor around an area, allowing interaction with characters and objects. The game includes the voice acting of the original game, although characters are not shown in the world, instead being represented by on-screen portraits.
In addition, there is new music, composed by Shōji Meguro; some of the game's music is different if the female protagonist is selected. Several cameos of characters from Persona 4 have been added to Persona 3 Portable, including Yukiko Amagi, a playable character from Persona 4.
