    Game Narrative Review

    Game Narrative Review ==================== Your name (one name, please): Ian Switaj Your school: Rochester Institute of Technology Your email: [email protected] Month/Year you submitted this review: December 2013 ==================== Game Title: Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 Platform: Playstation 2 Genre: Role-playing, Social simulation Release Date: July 10, 2008 (JP) / December 9, 2008 (NA) Developer: Atlus Publisher: Atlus Game Writer/Creative Director/Narrative Designer: Katsura Hashino (Director), Azusa Kido (Scenario and Social Link Planning Leader), Yuichiro Tanaka and Akira Kawasaki (Scenario Writer), US Localization: Martin Britton, James Kuroki, Mai Namba, and Jensen Kamiya (Translator), Nich Maragos (Lead Editor) Overview Persona 4 is a Japanese Roleplaying Game (JRPG) in which a group of high school students are trying to capture the culprit responsible for a chain of murders and kidnappings that began plaguing their town starting April 11, 2011. In the town of Inaba a rumor is going around that by looking at a TV screen at 12:00 AM on a rainy night the face of the viewer’s soulmate will be revealed. The player takes control of a second year high school student who is forced to move to the countryside and live with his uncle’s family for an entire year while his parents are overseas on business and, as a result, becomes inexplicitly involved in the supernatural chain of murders. Victims that are thrown into the TV are attacked and ultimately killed by their Shadows, or manifestations of their repressed psyches, and are found dead in the human world on days of fog. The protagonist and his team of Persona users, must brave the horrors and unknowns of the mysterious TV world populated by Shadows, beings that represent the generally negative emotions and psyches of mankind, in order to seek the truth behind the chain of mysterious murders and their connections to this mysterious rumor, rescue the victims, and uncover the identity of the culprit responsible.

    A Influência Do Tarô Na Construção De Personagens Na Franquia Persona1

    Intercom – Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos Interdisciplinares da Comunicação 42º Congresso Brasileiro de Ciências da Comunicação – Belém - PA – 2 a 7/09/2019 A influência do tarô na construção de personagens na franquia Persona1 Ana Raquel Romeu AGUIAR2 Ricardo Jorge de Lucena LUCAS3 Universidade de Fortaleza, Fortaleza, CE RESUMO Esse artigo procura mostrar como o tarô, mais especificamente o Tarô de Marselha, teve impacto nos personagens de Persona, sendo isso mais evidente nos três últimos jogos. Para isso, cada Arcano será explicado de acordo com Kaplan (1972), Nichols (1995) e Peradejordi (1993). Depois, será mostrada a sua aplicação nos personagens dos jogos, que pode variar de seu background ao character design, passando pelas habilidades. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Persona; Personagens; Tarô INTRODUÇÃO Tarô é um assunto complexo. Não se sabe a origem exata. Há diversos tipos, com cartas extremamente diferentes, e pode ser comparado a diversos jogos, do xadrez às cartas indianas, passando pelo jogo indiano e pelo Fez, que é marroquino. Nota-se que o tarô foi bastante forte na Itália, já que os Tarocchi de Mantegna, de Veneza, de Bolonha, bem como o Minchiate de Florença e o baralho Vinconti-Sforza, são nomes de cidade do país. Para esse trabalho, focaremos em um dos principais, que é o Tarô de Marselha, porque é o mais evidente nos jogos estudados. Além disso, pode ser considerado o tarô mais tradicional e é fácil de achar comercialmente (PERADEJORDI, 1993, p. 23). Foi bastante popular no sul da França, e foi baseado e modificado dos baralhos italianos mencionados no parágrafo anterior. As cartas são enumeradas de 0 a XXI e normalmente possuem figuras coloridas.

    Sven Dwulecki, ''I Am Thou… Thou Art I…''—How Persona 4'S Young Adult

    “I am thou… Thou art I…”—How Persona 4’s Young Adult Fiction Communicates Japanese Values Sven Dwulecki Abstract Life is Strange, INSIDE, Oxenfree—all these video games represent a seem- ingly entirely new genre. Young Adult videogames diverge from the male, gloomy grown-up stereotypes and replace them with adolescent protago- nists in their coming of age stories. Their commercial success seem to val- idate their endeavors. However, YA narratives are hidden in plain sights for many years within JRPGs. Shin Megami Tensei – Persona 4 (short Persona 4 or P4) is a cultural ambassador. This paper examines how the game’s pro- cedural rhetoric in combination with its Young Adult story advocate in fa- vor of specific Japanese values. The time structure of P4 reinforces a long- term orientation and requires strategic planning as well as tactical flexibil- ity. So-called “Social Links” represents Japan unique take on collectivism. Each link encapsulates a small YA narrative and offers different benefits to social-active protagonist. Finally, grinding mechanics reflect the notion of repetition-based learning. Japanese schools teach through engaging with developing several solutions to a singular problem. The same holds true for the grinding process. All these elements combined create a game rhet- oric promoting these aspects of Japanese culture. Sven Dwulecki is a PhD candidate at the University of Tübingen and former market researcher at Crytek; his research is focused on the rhetoric of video games and their influence upon consumers; in his field of expertise he combines business and digital rhetoric with a focus on marketing strategy, innovation, and the role of entertainment industry.

We have a new group of users. They must have intriguing stories to tell…” -Igor, to a new party. Creating a character in Persona may seem daunting at first, especially if this is your first tabletop role-playing game. The sheer complexity of the rules can turn off newcomers to the genre. The jargon may seem incomprehensible and downright inane. That sentiment is totally understandable – tabletop is not for everyone. While a game like Persona is innately complex and due to a complex system, every effort will be made to make sure that character creation is made as simple as possible, and easy enough for anyone to pick up. Why? To give the prospective players, both old and new, an ease of access to the system, without being threatened with jargon and vague bullshit. To begin, let’s outline what Persona: the RPG is.

    Contradictory Character Traits As Seen in Persona 4: the Animation

    CONTRADICTORY CHARACTER TRAITS AS SEEN IN PERSONA 4: THE ANIMATION Sabrina, N. A.1 and Suprajitno, S.2 1,2English Department, Faculty of Letters, Petra Christian University, Siwalankerto 121-131, Surabaya, 60236, East Java, INDONESIA E-mails: [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT Anime is Japanese cartoon that has a vast popularity due to its story and art. The popularity of anime results in the various genres such as: crime-fiction, urban fantasy, and slice of life. One of the popular animes that combines the three genres is Persona 4: the Animation. The popularity and the combination of three genres of that anime makes me interested in analyzing this anime. I am particularly attracted to the two main characters in Persona 4: The Animation namely, Yu Narukami and Tohru Adachi. Those two main character possess contradictory character traits and represent a certain symbol on the society. In this paper, I examine the values that influence their character traits. Using Carl Gustav -ung‘s theory of individuation, , proves that they have contradictory character traits by looking through their Persona, Shadow, Ego, and Self. Through the analysis of character traits, I find that they symbolize yin yang. Like yin yang, they are contradicting as well as complementing. Yet, they also are not paragon of evil or good. Keywords: Character traits, Persona, Self, Shadow Anime is Japanese cartoon that has a worldwide popularity. Its popularity comes from the uniqueness of the story and the art. The variety of the stories makes it appealing for people in the world.

    Patrick Hayes Narrative Review Eng 410-A December 3, 2009 Game Title: Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 Platform: Sony Playstation 2 Genre: Japanese Style Role Playing Game Release Date: December 9, 2008 Developer: Atlus Publisher: Atlus Game Writer/Creative Director/Narrative Designer: Katsura Hashino (Director) Author of this review: Patrick Hayes E-mail: [email protected] Overview Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 continues long-standing tradition within the Persona series of making high school students overcome their psychological shortcomings through the students’ involvement in extraordinary events. The story is presented as a murder mystery where the murderer throws his victims into a bizarre world that exists inside of televisions. While a victim is within the TV world, their “Shadow” manifests physically and torments them until a certain point in time when the “Shadow” turns on the person and kills him, depositing him back in the real world. The protagonist gets caught up in this mystery by coincidence during a one-year stay at his uncle’s house in the rural town of Inaba. The player controls this protagonist and must balance his attempts to save the victims from the TV world while maintaining a social life and attending classes at school. Early in the game, the protagonist awakens to his Persona, a powerful deity that represents his inner strength. The principle characters that the protagonist befriends are explored through their encounters with their “Shadows” which, when overcome, awakens them to their own Personas. Other characters the protagonist meets, as well as these principle friends, are explored through “Social Links”, events where the protagonist meets with friends during his free time.

  • A Brief Overview of Persona 4 and Its Programming

    A Brief Overview of Persona 4 and its Programming Persona 4 Box Art6 Anthony Perno ENGL 202C Melissa Kaye March 22, 2014 Introduction Videogames are a huge part of today’s culture. In 2012 research found that about 58% of Americans play videogames.7 Additionally, consumers spent approximately $20.77 billion dollars on videogames.7 Atlus is just one of the many videogame companies that exist today. Atlus’ most well-known product is the Shin Megami Tenesi series. The Shin Megami Tenesi series is comprised of about 49 games.8 This report is just an introduction to one of the many games in the Shin Megami Tensei series. Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4, usually just called Persona 4, is a PlayStation 2 (PS2) role playing game (RPG) developed by Atlus. Persona 4 is the fifth game in Atlus’ ongoing Persona series. Persona 4 revolves around the lives of seven high school students and Teddie (a teddy bear who can speak and interact with humans) as they attempt to capture the culprit responsible for the recent murders and kidnappings happening in their town of Inaba, Japan. Persona 4’s playable characters from left to right: Teddie, Rise Kujikawa, Yosuke Hanamura, Naoto Shirogane, Kanji Tatsumi, Yu Narukami, Chie Satonaka, Yukiko Amagi1 How a Player Interacts with the Game Just like how a movie without a story feels wrong so does a game without a story. Many game companies spend months developing a story. Persona 4’s story is played out in two parts. There are cutscenes (in-game movies where the player has limited control) and then there is gameplay.

    A Quest to Unravel the Secrets of Gender Inclusive Game Design -A Qualitative Study on the Design Process of Female Protagonists

    Örebro university School of business - Informatics Bachelor thesis 15hp Supervisor - Antonios Tsertsidis Examiner – Andreas Ask Ht- 18, 2019-01-11. A quest to unravel the secrets of gender inclusive game design -A qualitative study on the design process of female protagonists Linda Allansson 931002 Abstract This thesis revolves around the almost unexplored subject of gender inclusive game design. The main research question is How can game design become more gender inclusive and the secondary research question used to examine this is: how the design process is affected by a female protagonist. Female protagonist in games are lacking and have been scares thorough history. Times are changing, and the female protagonist are on the rise. How can the design process be evolved to continue the trend? The study is conducted by using the qualitive method of in-depth interviews with the people who are closest to the problem, the game developers themselves. The results are compared to previous research on the topic and analysed by using the MDA- framework to examine and look at game design as a design artifact. The study gives an insight into the mind of a game designer and what the process of creating gender inclusive games entails. It is a very opinionated topic and that really shows in the result. To achieve gender inclusiveness seems for some, to be as easy as working a few more hours on the protagonist’s gloves, and for others as difficult as trying to fight a social and political construction. The one unanimous opinion is the value of the players, the audience need be vocal about the demand for gender inclusivity and diversity in games.
