As part of that, an extra instalment of #DanGoesToTheMovies before the hectic adventure tomorrow.
Who can say if I’ve changed this year for the better? But because I lived it - and will continue to - I have been changed #ForGood.

Finishing off an (almost) week off work with a little instalment of Dan Goes To The (Home) Movies.
Tonight, a movie that’s been incepted into my mind due to repeated mentions by the YouTube channel We Are Not Alive.
Gus, Henry, I’m blaming you for this because now I’m facing… Nothing But Trouble!

After a hale and hearty morning with the parade at #BristolPride, time to escape the heat and enter the world of cinema.
That’s right: #DanGoesToTheMovies to find out if a man who can fly can be kind. It’s Supermaaaaaaaan!

Despite its myriad issues, and my own overall preferences for 3 and 5, Persona 4 is a game that is near and dear to me. I’m happy to see it coming to a new audience, but I hope Revival takes all the necessary steps to capture what made the original work and update for that new audience.

But aside from all these changes, the one thing that I hope stays unchanged is the camaraderie and sense of community from the original.
The Investigation Team is the Persona party that most feels like a genuine group of companions, and Inaba is such a warm, lived in hub - a home away from home.

Less the comedy, but some adjustment and tweaking could benefit some of the more dramatic story moments too.
2008 was a different time in terms of representing LGBT themes. P4 takes some big, haphazard swings that don’t quit land. In 2025, a more careful, delicate approach might be in order.

Now, this last part is arguably a) taste, and b) a core part of P4’s identity but…
Look, the comic relief in this game sucks! It’s a dates artifact of the 00s and new 10s. It’s mean-spirited, annoying and f**ks with the tone.

Technically QoL, but not robbing players of calendar time with unskippable events (looking at you, Junes part timer work from P4G) or time jumping to New Years when you beat the last mandatory dungeon. Time management is hard enough without the game arbitrarily wrestling control from the player.

But the dungeons in P4? Nah. Not only are they much smaller by comparison, but their distinctive themes open them up to all sorts of more interesting dungeon layouts, which would serve to complement their distinctive visuals.
The Palaces in P5 have spoiled me, dang it!

Now, if we wanna talk more ambitious changes, how about overhauling the dungeons so it ain’t just repeated hallways almost of the time.
Granted, they didn’t do this with Tartarus in P3 Reload, but P3’s design was tied so firmly to Tartarus that overhauling it would have been a massive undertaking.

Obvious thing right off the bat is general QoL updates, like easier access for Social Links and direction for Quests. These are things that got updated in Reload, so it’s likely that Revival will get the same kind of polish.

So, a bit of a kooky Nintendo Direct today, but my immediate thoughts:
> Somnium Files spin off; FUCK YEAH!
> Raidou Remastered; bring it on!
> Digital game sharing; intriguing
> Bring on next Wednesday! I need Switch 2 news!
