Persona 4 Script
🕑 Added 2023-08-13 18:35:12 +0000 UTCHi everyone,
Sorry about the delay. I still need to get the okay from someone, and I'm still probably going to move stuff around, but this is what I have right now. I'm generally happy with where it is right now, I'm probably going to add more to sorta clarify some sections - the problem with big scripts is trying to stay on topic, so you think you always have something relevant but then on a second pass it's not relevant, etc. I trimmed a lot of stuff out and down, and I'm probably going to trim more stuff down in the coming days.

Funny you mention that cause I do have another video in the works for Persona 5 Royal, specifically along the lines of ludotherapy (and how it thinks of social links as a form of hyperreal therapy in neoliberal Japan), so I think your thoughts might diverge from mine haha

Excited to see this! I'm intrigued by the televisual arguments you've made, and I wonder if, in a way, P5 was partially a response to that (inkeeping with the technological innovations, broadening of social media and the blending of public/private spheres). I'd be tempted to make an argument about performativity vs intimacy with the two games, but I think that might be for more trenchant thinkers than myself.
