There are a lot of issues in video games that we do not think about at first but crop up as time goes on. One such problem is establishing a canon name for a character the player is free to name as they like. Usually, this is not an issue, but Atlus slipped up when

Without the Shin Megami Tensei series, we would not have the Persona franchise and the website you are reading right now. Like perhaps many of you reading this, I first started with Persona and then branched off into the SMT games, beginning with Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne. One major part of that particular title

The Persona series has been around for a very long time, back to the very beginnings of the PlayStation consoles in the 1990s. Long before there ever was a Teddie, social links, or the Phantom Thieves, there was the original trilogy of Persona games. I myself only got into them about ten years ago, playing

Hundreds upon hundreds of demons and Personas exist in the Persona universe. Across each of the mainline games, players have so many options for how to fill out their companion list. I’ve played every game in the series at least once and can attest that few Personas out there strike fear and impress with the
