Talk:Revelations: Persona

message: Regarding the following line: "and the changing of Mark from a freckled Caucasian boy to a token African American character with somewhat offensively stereotypical dialogue" -
Mark wasn't ever caucasian -- he was Asian, like the rest of the cast. --McDohl 07:47, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Caucasian? 

message: I've improved the first Persona's section. I'll do the same for Innocent Sin, Eternal Punishment, and will add the third title information! --Delf 20:55, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Johnnyfog, I think it's good to move the characters section to a new page like List of Persona 2 characters. The article title could be List of Revelation Persona characters or List of Persona 1 characters. -- Sameboat - 同舟 04:08, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Improvement. 

message: I got here since the article was listed at WP:CVG/A
I read it and found that to get B class, you have to explain the gameplay better, atm it just says "like in that game", which doesnt tell you much, then sometimes the stuff is too detailed.
Try to make that it only contains stuff, which a person not playing/considering to play the game would want to know.
Ill just quote a part from the article here: 
 In the Fusion menu, a color icon determines how compatible each pair of demons are: 
 A red icon warns that the pair of demons are incompatible, and are in danger of resulting 
 in a failed Fusion. A white icon indicates that the demons are of average compatability, 
 and no complications will arise. Finally, a blue icon indicates that the demons are very
 compatible, and may produce an enhanced Persona with favourable spells and/or attributes."
This is a typical sentence/part that a non player would not want to know, so try to not include such parts. Also read WP:SS..
Hope that helps ;)

thread_title:  "like" stuff 

message: I'm going to rate this start class, but it can get to B/GA with some work. Some notes;
*Rather than using external links in the article text, use these as references (in the infobox, lead, etc.)
*"is the first in a series of role-playing games for PlayStation consoles – one of several spin-off series within developer Atlus' Megami Tensei franchise. " - this doesn't really make any sense...
*The lead could talk about reception etc. so that it fully discusses the article
*Rename the "Revelations: Persona" to something like "Gameplay"
*"The main character, Mary, and Nate battle a horde of zombies." - don't need bold here
*The "Game mechanics" section is slightly long and crufty. Remember to summarise.
*"See also" not really needed - instead create an article for the series
If you have any questions, leave a note on my talk page. Cheers, Dihydrogen Monoxide (party) 05:13, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Considering the Biblical motif of past games, including in the titles, would not "Goddess Apocrypha: Persona" be a closer translation?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mr Rubino (talk • contribs) 13:56, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Remake coming to NA

message: Looks like the gameplay section is still disorganised and overly detailed. I'll see if I can help it a bit. Feel free to comment on any changes. 145.99.155.53 (talk) 21:22, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Gameplay section 

message: A quick note on why I reverted the edit by 72.39.61.241; Mark is also called Mark in the Japanese version of the game, but in there it's just a nickname. The real reason I changed it back however is for consistency with the rest of the article, which refers to the characters by their names from the NA release. Boksha (talk) 02:16, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Mark 

message: i think it would be more appropriate for the header to be changed to localization changes rather than development since it focused purely on the differences between the american, japanese, ps1, and psp versions.
also through some research it seems that the original japanese ps1 version had characters which had dark hair and light skin because they were all supposed to be asian. it was ONLY for the NA PS1 version that they decided to change the appearance of many of the characters to make it more "american" and diverse, thats why the main character became a redhead, mark turned to a black kid, ellen became a blonde, nate's hair turned brown. they used it to justify that it was an american school.
however for the psp remake as with most remakes they wanted it to be more like the ORIGINAL, so that meant like the original japanese ps1 version where all the characters were asian.

thread_title:  Development --> Localization changes 

message: A screenshot including a Persona sprite in action would be nice. The artwork for the Personae composition wise is probably as close to something that looks like fine-art to ever appear in a video game / the best Atlus has ever produced (IMO) --72.173.160.58 (talk) 04:07, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
