NCS Game Synopsis
«©NCS» Fuka Yamagishi
opens up the new storyline in Persona 3 Fes where
she phones Yukari Takeba on her pink phone. At the conclusion of the
call, Fuka walks further into the room where the
camera peels back to take in the Special
Extracurricular Activities Club at Gekko High
School. Seated at the top is Student Council
President Mitsuru Kirijou and she's ringed by Junpei Iori,
Ken Amada,
and Koromaru. As they chat, they're joined by Aegis
- a blonde android who battles Shadows with adept
skill. Aegis is the focal point in the new chapter
of Persona 3 and players take control of her
throughout the adventure.
Persona 3 Fes is both an old and a new game. It contains the entire
original Persona 3 adventure along with an append
segment which follows the events after the
conclusion of Persona 3. In the title selection
screen, the original adventure may be played by
selecting "Episode Yourself" while the new segment
is indicated by "Episode Aegis." Persona 3 Fes
features a new cinematic introduction, new Personas
to use, new uniforms, and a hard mode for gamers who
enjoy a good challenge.

Episode Aegis is a new chapter that takes place
after the events of the original Persona 3
storyline. The game starts with black clouds blowing
away from a bright full moon which changes into a
whirring wheel in a machine. The camera pulls out to
view a lot of wheels whirring inside the grand
machine. The scene changes to a battle between Aegis
and a gray-haired guy with a bandage
over his left temple. After punching and throwing
down, gunfire makes an appearance. A character
appears with red butterfly wings over its face and a
girl's voice accompanies onscreen dialogue which
recaps the events in the original Persona 3 chapter
and leads into the new adventure that awaits.
» The game starts on 3/3/2010 at 1:30PM - the sound
of a phone may be heard and a blue haired gal named
Fuuka Yamagishi is standing near a window with blue
curtains. She's calling someone on a pink-colored
handset and eventually reaches Yukari-chan. After a
short conversation, the call ends abruptly and Fuuka
walks into the room where the camera pulls back to
reveal some members of the Special Extracurricular
Activities Club.
» Redhead Mitsuru Kirijou is seated on a sofa to the
north, Fuuka sits to her left and to her own left is
a brown haired girl named Amada Ken. Amada is
accompanied by a dog named Koromaru while opposite
them is a baseball cap-wearing guy named Iori Junpei.
They're later joined by a blonde girl with big red
bow in front of her blouse uniform. She looks human
but she's not - her name is Aegis and she's an
android.
» After the group commiserates, the scene changes to
the night hour and the whole gang sans Yukari is
sitting around watching television. While watching
and talking amongst themselves, three beeps sound
off and a huge bang sounds off somewhere in the
premises. They all get up at once and doggie barks
twice. They talk for a while before Aegis walks away
to regenerate. The scene changes to "Late at Night"
and a self-dialogue plays in Aegis' CPU as she's
seated in her chair in the middle of boxes of ammo.
She lowers the chair and a blue butterfly drifts
around the screen before flapping in front of her.
It disappears after she says "Chou" and a loud bang
may be heard. She exclaims, "Nani" which may be
translated to "What's That?" Fuuka knocks on her
door to request entry. Aegis grants passage and Fuka
rushes in with a panic in your voice and fear in her
eyes. After a short interval, the two rush off. In
the next scene, Aegis comes upon the members of her
team on the floor and Koromaru at a defensive
stance. She spies the back of an android warrior who
looks like her except she's dressed in black and her
face is covered by red butterfly wings. The warrior
turns around and Aegis thinks its a Shadow but it
speaks. From above, Fuuka appears in a telescreen
and warns the team. The strange android's name is
Meteisu and she gets into a battle stance and an
encounter takes place where Aegis faces off against
the attacker.
» Attacks are chosen from a rotary selection wheel
where commands may be chosen. In a conventional
attack indicated by the jagged icon, Aegis leaps up
and fires off gunfire. There's also a "Summon
Persona" attack marked by a starry icon and a "use
item" action indicated by the bag icon. After
knocking a couple of hundred HP from Meteisu, she'll
falter and skip her turn. Attack two more times with
gunfire and she'll drop to her knees. Aegis will
earn 11003 experience points from the battle and
level up. Afterwards, Meteisu blazes up and attacks
Aegis with a mighty attack and then hits Amada Ken.
Aegis is down in the background and watches the
scene as Amada is lifted up by the neck. The other
party members can only watch. In the next scene,
Aegis has a flashback of sorts and gets up and
summons a mighty Persona which changes in mid-attack
into another form which brings Meteisu to her knees
again and destroys her mask.
» Scene shift to Igor's place where Aegis is seated
in front of him and his chambermaid. Opera wail
plays in the background.
» In the next scene, Yukari has joined the team but
Amada is not seen at first. Aegis sits on the sofa
in her battle armor with her legs crossed and her
head pointed downwards. After a short conversation,
they walk over to where Amada and Akihito Sanada are
standing on both sides of the fallen Meteisu who is
seated and sleeping. She later wakes up and
surprises the team. Her mask flips up and she seems
unsure of what has just transpired. Meteisu later
raises both arms and breaks the bonds the tie her to
the chair. The links of chains may be seen scattered
on the floor. Meteisu later walks off and the entire
team follows her. The next scene is in a desert
setting where a door in the middle of nowhere is
standing. The camera shifts and we see that the crew
just descended from stairs and another door may be
seen to the right side of the team.
» After the desert scene, control is handed over to
the player. The L-Analog moves Aegis around while
the R-Analog swivels the camera. To speak to party
members standing around the room, run up to a person
and press the "O" button. If you descend the stairs,
you'll reach the desert area again. A number of
doors are standing around which are portals to new
areas.
» All of the dialogue in the introductory part of
the game is accompanied by voice acting. Once you're
given full control of Aegis however, the dialogue
bubbles are only accompanied by the background
music.
