"persona 2 remakes would be pretty cool you know i love persona 2 personally but theyre not very accessible both from an accessibility for disabled people pov and from the pov of someone who doesnt want to emulate, not to mention the gameplay has aged immensely and some elements are really questionable a-" [remembering the presence of both queerness & a fat character and the very distinct absence of (& bigotry towards) these groups in persona 5] "you know what nevermind."

#i do mean remake more along the lines of ff7 remake #if they just overhaul the combat & graphics id be fine #but there is a degree of concern???? that they might???? incorporate????? the stuff in p5 that makes me as a queer fat person??? uncomfy?? #p2(is) wasnt perfect but most of its fatphobia is framed as a bad thing instead of just a haha boys being boys moment #(aka why does ryuji keep telling ann to stop eating or shell get fat shut the fuck up i am so tired) #and i know its just me being paranoid & very hesitant about change but hehrjtmhhrm #i dont expect them to remake p1 & p2 mind you. i just think if they did they would fuck it up #at best wed get a shitty port a la p3p & smt3 that make you wonder why ur not just emulating the original #(because it sounds better) #(what the fuck is that audio quality p3p remaster im genuinely asking) #for a minute i also thought about being concerned about eikichi's gnc vibe but then i remembered what the smtv protagonist looks like #could you imagine them adding like. a beach sequence to p1 & p2. could you imagine #p2is as a game could never exist in a post-p5 world not just because of. um. the out of pocket bullshit #but also because of all the smaller stuff. the smaller stuff atlus fails at to make the friend group seem more. friend groupy #because fatshaming ur friend is totally a fun and nice thing to do!! #i do like p5 dont get me wrong im having a blast and the mechanics are fantastic but the uh. sometimes i almost like the friend dynamic #& then ryuji says some out of pocket bullshit about ann and im reminded that this game was not made with me in mind #granted i havent finished p2is so maybe it just goes completely off the rails at some point past where im at but so far? #the lack of continuous fat jokes being played off for laughs is refreshing
