All i hope for the P4 remake is that they make Marie DLC so i can refuse to even get her into my game but they still keep the scooters and other extra shit

As an old fag who played the original release I got annoyed very quickly that Golden felt centered around her dumbass

It was worse in Royal with that one chick I dunno tho I only played that for a hour before I was like "yep I've played 5 already" so she might not be as bad

I havent played Royal but i think the big new content they added isnt focused on Kasumi so they didnt quite repeat the Marie thing

She is integral to the part after Persona 5 regular ends, i.e. the "DLC" story, along with another new character.
During the old Persona 5 story, she's only there superficially and you can't even add her to your party. And when her story starts, you can take her out of the party for 95% of it, as I have done.
I found her presence inoffensive and the new antagonist is pretty interesting, so he makes the experience of the Royal content.

Marie is far FAR more annoying then Kasumi.

if nothing else at least Kasumi contributes being the only real access to bless damage you have outside Joker at worst her story is too silly to take seriously but still comes packaged with an interesting Antagonist

That being said I like more then that about her.

Design and Aesthetic is on point along with the Symbolism that comes from the Persona (Cinderella makes sense Sumire vs Kasumi) the only thing I actively dislike about her is her Codename Violet is kind of lame.

The Horn of the Abyss mod for HoMMIII, a more than 25 year old game, is now available on GOG. so I thought this might be a a good opportunity to talk about all the stuff surrounding the Heroes of Might & Magic series this year.

A book is being written about the extensive history of the series by one of the former game developers. He says he will touch upon the main Might & Magic series as well, going back to when Jon Van Caneghem was taking mail orders out of his basement.

The Horn of the Abyss team is already working on releasing on a new faction.

And a new entry in the series, Olden Era, should be out sometime soon. We'll see how well it holds up to the series' reputation.

It warms my heart how much love this series still gets after all these years. Anyone else play these games? I know we have some slavs here...

I played a lot of both Heroes of Might & Magic II and III back in the '90s and 2000s. I even had Heroes II on my phone for a while, although that was mostly just because I wanted a game that I could play without internet access.

Marie was by far the most blatant worst of the Persona implied love interests. I don't mind her as far as plot significance goes, it's how she is implemented and how much screen time she steals.

Someone really wanted a piece of that HanaKana cake.
