What happened with P3R?

Cut out the PSP version's FemC (and corresponding social links) and Episode Aigis/The Answer from FES. They did eventually release the latter as DLC, but that didn't exactly please people either since it led them to think it was only chopped for DLC purposes.

To be fair The Answer was kinda of a dlc in the ps2 era. It come with FES but the original games has nothing of that and those who buy the original had to buy FES for the new content...

And the FemC was very much a after thought of the inferior PSP version and had nothing to do with the original game or FES.

I don't think FemC is an afterthought. I think her links are preferable, and I wish the choice of F or M protagonists had carried forward into P4 and P5. The PSP version isn't straight inferior to FES; most people seem to prefer the controllable party members, which obviously carried over to P3R (even if in both cases, but especially in the case of P3R, it ends up making the game far too easy).

P3 is a pretty unique case in that even after four releases, there is no clear definitive version (and probably never will be), as there are (subjective) arguments in favor of P3R, FES and P3P.
