Dude. You are the only one who thinks this. Sure, that doesn't mean we're right and you're wrong. But it probably means that it's more possible and plausible than you think it is. I mean sure, it would be a little strange considering P5 took about 8 years to make (2008-2016), and it's only been 3 years since P5's launch. But I will say that we have no idea how much of that time was spent on each individual aspect. Most of the character models would still be the same, as would the gameplay engine. Sure, dialogue would be different (and I admit to not knowing the exact in depth ups and downs of the plot), but how much of the story would actually really change. Just based on my rough knowledge of the development process, implementing a female protagonist would probably require about 1/3 or 1/4 of the work and time needed to build the entire game up from scratch, which would be about 2.6 years of dev time max. So it's not as unreasonable as you may think. Sure, it's a big job. And we don't know everything about the project. We don;t know how long they've been working on it and we don't have an exact breakdown of how long each individual element takes. I'm just trying to highlight that there is a logic behind the idea that that's what we could be getting, even outside of the leaks from Smash.

Just a note:

(wikipedia for persona 5)
"Preparatory development of the game began in 2008, following the release of Persona 4, with full development beginning following the release of Catherine in 2011.[...] Hashino was only fully involved in development after Catherine was finished, later calling the latter game a test for the next Persona title's development. Development lasted five years "

Turning it on.
Hasn't touched Smash since the release, I believe.

on and off but not as much as I used to when it came out. After a while, I sorta stopped playing mostly because Im waiting for Joker

 

[Dr. James Rustles]

Well let's not go down the route of talking about what makes women attractive again; that didn't go so well last time.

The attractiveness of a woman depends on the size of her pupils, if their pupils are round or if they are heart-shaped, remembering to bring enough toast in her mouth for everyone when she is late, her purity measured in pH, and how many children she can give birth to at once.

 

[Knight Dude]

Your lack of Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, and Darkstalkers disturbs me.

Why, I already included all the best Marvel franchises? If you want Iron Man, than have him team up with Arthur from GnG.

I meant this mr nobodyView attachment 200516

You won't win TV CGI Man! Not when we got Negative Man's sick Radioactive Ghost.

I wish the show kept the Black/Green color scheme for the stand.

Which means it would take even LESS time to do it! Using my math it would take at most 1 and 2/3 years. Which is really reasonable

But what about the most important feature for any man or woman to be attractive? Can they do a sick air-dash? Can it be canceled to get better combos?

 

[Teeb147]

Which means it would take even LESS time to do it! Using my math it would take at most 1 and 2/3 years. Which is really reasonable

I also think it would take a lot less time just because editing and changing select stuff is much easier than building everything from scratch.
It can be longer or shorter depending on how much they want to change.

In this case if it really is a FeMC in the same story it's hard to imagine that the start would be the same unless she's just covering up the being a phantom thief.
I honestly feel like they did a good job not revealing the mystery, of what she is to the story.

Your math doesn't fit the reality of game development, though. You're basing it off info we don't have and not counting things like cost, voice actor availability, and the start of development time.

Side side note:

The hypothetical situation where Akechi asks the player of their opinion of the Phantom Thieves, these are your options
View attachment 200513

Take note that these are all supportive of the Phantom Thieves, and none coincide with what P5R girl is saying.

This leads me to some possible conclusions:

1. She is femJoker and is explicitly lying about how she believes in the justice of the Phantom Thieves.
2. She is not femJoker and is lying to make her appear as if she does not support them in order to trick someone/Akechi.
3. She is not femJoker and is telling the truth and doesn't believe in their vigilantism, meaning she may oppose the Phantom Thieves.
4. None of this matters because it won't actually be in the final game.

Someone else remembered this scene when they saw the translation? Thank god. Why would Akechi ask this random Shujin student a question if it wasn't that TV show interview? That's what's bugging me about all of this.

Note something for me. Girls generally gravitate towards Akechi's charisma and good looks, so would a female Joker agree with him in order to blend in? Especially on a public TV show? Sure male Joker would do it, but I'm not sure if the female Joker would.

it's too late would be a fantastic battle/at least boss theme for feMC, change my mind

like damn, that drop at 0:40 comes in at around the same time as 'you'll never see it coming' in last surprise, it's basically perfect for timing all out attacks to the music

Oh lord. What if they add new music for a female campaign. The new songs were like the best part of Persona 3 Portable.

When I real young, or as far as I can remember. Watching the 90's shows, reading my dad's comics from the 70's and 80's, and playing the PS1 Spider-Man game.

Mind you I'm mostly ****posting, but Spider-Man and X-Men are by far and away my favorite comic IPs, while I also like Daredevil, Black Panther, Blade, Captain America and Ghost Rider a fair bit too. Looking to read some of Moon Knight's stuff at some point.

Though I'd be lying if I wasn't a little annoyed at the Avengers shilling these past 3 years or so.

It can be longer or shorter depending on how much they want to change.

In this case if it really is a FeMC in the same story it's hard to imagine that the start would be the same unless she's just covering up the being a phantom thief.
I honestly feel like they did a good job not revealing the mystery, of what she is to the story.

as far as i see it, a P5 feMC would realistically include the following:

• altered dialogue choices in otherwise normal scenes to reflect a different personality (like how P3's feMC was a lot more bubbly and upbeat)
• revamped/changed confidants, especially to accomodate for romance with male characters and potentially new classmates from 1st year (as they sort of did with Rio in P3P, albeit without the year change) - a given from P3P, and probably a large chunk of the time needed just for rewriting the things
• 1st year changes - requires replacing of kawakami and the hawaii trip, though equally it wouldn't be hard to just change it so that the hawaii trip included 1st year if you were playing feMC; P3P indicates that they're willing to just add new trips entirely but then that was also much lower budget and easier to implement
• cutscenes altered - all things considered, probably not the biggest job in the world; cutscenes like joker's awakening would take a bit of work but atlus's internal animation team is usually on the ball
• main scenario changes - to be honest i don't know how much this would actually come into it, given that the whole getting-sued thing would probably play out more or less the same regardless of gender, but it's hard to say how much they'd want to play around with giving feMC a new story structure
• kickass all-out-attack finishing art - look buddy if her all-out-attack artwork isn't killer then what's even the point of choosing to play as her
