Really wished being able to swap out people mid-battle wasn't locked behind a social link, let alone one that's not even a main character.
maybe I misunderstand the description and Baal can correct me but you get the ability for the protagonist to swap out active and reserved party members just from meeting her. Rank 10 just lets anyone do it in their turn. There's a bit of hoops to meet Hifumi like having Rank 2 with Yusuke and having a Charm stat of 3, but you're gonna do all your party member links anyway and a Charm of 3 nearly three months into the game sounds pretty doable.

If anything Moon sounds like the SLink to focus on for that sick EXP boost which my dumbass min/max brain needs

Stamina instead of HP. After a hard day's work, MC has to keep chugging energy drinks otherwise he falls asleep in the dungeon and is lost forever

Did you know the guy who wrote SAO was a salaryman? I mean it's not a good LN or series but it's not like you start hating fun after your 20s. I would be into exploring a secret world and living out my dreams as a hero vs daily grind of commuting on the subway for my dead end p/t job.

You can tell because Kiritos Sisters Tits are so huge and its mentioned about 200 times and there is incest that he was a salaryman once. Sucked the normalcy right out

Yo, I have a weirdly specific question about the controls, if someone that played it before could answer. I went and turned on my PS3 again to make sure everything was in working order and things MOSTLY are except there is some wonkiness with my controller where sometimes LT doesn't work if I'm also using the left analog stick. This would, obviously, be devastating to an FPS or something, but does P5 have anything essential mapped to L2 that requires me to be moving at the same time? It's probably going to be the last game I play on the ol' PS3 for a long time so I don't wanna have to buy a new controller just for it.

I'll say it.

I want a Persona/Yakuza crossover game. Make it happen Atlus and Sega.

Kazuma's persona would be Kazuma because gently caress you.

What? No way, they already have the perfect things to be the Personas of most of the main characters, their back tattoos.

Either that or Haruka should be his persona.

Or maybe Majima.

the hosed up part is that kirito's sister also has abs but none of the adaptations keep that

Majima is acceptable if, randomly and without warning, the attack targets Kazuma instead.

Haruka is clearly the navigator/main character of the spinoff rhythm game. :v:

L2 has nothing of general importance mapped to it iirc, so you should be fine.

yeah but the ffxv english dub is good

The central cast was great but the NPCs were all distractingly bad. I ended up settling for the dub simply because I wanted to keep up with banter and poo poo but the random quest givers made me work for it.

I think everyone imagined themselves as characters like Kirito when they were 12 or 13 but the SAO guy just never stopped I guess.

Kirito is an elite gam3r and also a mature sex-haver but also never loses a fight.

He is "nothin personal, kid" personified.

Ignis' voice was the only one that I didn't really love, but yeah I want the idle battle dialogue. The NPCs were loving wild tho

People hated Promptos japanese voice but I really think they just never saw an anime with the cheery character archetype. Prompto yelling "Arigatou, chocobo!" when you getting off one rules

Sao was OK for the most part, it got really creepy with the marriage and e-child thing, the ending to the first arc was kinda cool tho. And then it kept going and then that's when it gets really really awful

This will probably be cheaply attached to the normal retail box with some plastic wrap if it's like some other Atlus bonuses I've seen recently.
