Of course it wount be the same, but at least put the idea and the feeling in it. Anyway, not all are going to work on the project. And if you have other sugestions let us know, and stop complaining about it.
Before I get into anymore, I just want to state i'm assuming you guys want to "port" Persona to the PC (all this talk is kind of vague as to if its a port or an original game.)
While i'm all for any kind of movement in the SMT fanbase, I think that energy like that could be used elsewhere.
If you do plan on doing this, I think you should try doing something with an original story and not a remake. Also (this can't be stressed enough.) The sprites HAVE to be reworked. 100% of the time i'm turned off by any kind of game made with RM because it looks exactly like all the others.
