I wonder if they put as much queerphobia in this one as in Persona 4...
There's a scene where the MC and the blond guy go into the city and she older men start hitting on them. Classic implication of queer people being predatory.
You know, for a series that works with themes of being marginalized, misunderstood, scapegoated, and othered, Persona (3-5) really go out of their way to fuck up. It's all about teenagers figuring themselves out and persona 2 has the only canonically queer character who isn't a punchline.
Society bad unless it's to make a cheap queerphobic joke.
not just that they literally wisk ryuji away against his will, i forget what he says about what happens after that
Oh god. It's worse than I remember then. It's such a shit show out here when Transgression - the JRPG can't even treat a gay person with dignity.
They changed the 'Operation Babe Hunt' scene in Persona 3 Reload by replacing the 'deceptive' trans woman into a cis woman who turns out to be a conspiracy theorist.
It's 2024 Atlus. Come on.
when my partner and i were playing i was kinda mad i couldn't romance skull or fox, why can't i hit on the artsy boy huh?
It's wild that it was unthinkable to have those when there were actual sketchy romance options.

bro i was cringing so hard romancing oracle, she's so young and small and childlike (not to mention her severely traumatic history) i'm like joker is mf 18 or some shit get outta town i'm not grooming her while my joker runs amok thru the friendgroup (and all the randoms and ADULT women he gets with like his MOTHERFUCKING TEACHER??) but nah gay ppl having a gay time together is where they draw the line? just nonsense. i like to imagine the scenes with crow as being severely queer coded and positive queer representation but that's headcannon cuz nah it's actually just 2 dudes hanging out having very... interesting conversations. idk joker x crow for life.sorry i had a few beers
