Truth is game rigging is more difficult than it looks pls stay ded

Knowing Atlus they're likely to make some other Persona or SMT games on PS4 that make use of the Persona 5 engine and assets..... my money is on PS4 getting at least Persona 6 or the inevitable Persona 5 FES or whatever. so you will be missing out on the possibility of future games like that if you get a PS3 instead of 4

If the engine means they can churn em out faster that's all good to me.

Kinda done with P4 now though. Could probably do one more P3 game as long as the female MC is in it.

I think maxing Ryuji's confidant before the third dungeon is some hilarious sort of nonsense.

I didn't focus it and used days where I was other group members throwing compliments his way to get his end rank stuff up more and I have a healthy assortment of Confidant ranks right now. Feels good gaming the system even though I still focus certain characters.

Presumably the phantom network thing in a year or so will basically be a 100% guide right? That's pretty cool if so.

Okay as awesome as the fusion accident animation is in this, I'm still mad I forgot about their existence and thus didn't save before a fusion session. I lost so much money to resummon the failures... Thankfully Nekomatas are apparently composed entirely out of yen so it wasn't a huge problem in the end. Just annoying.

My level 19 protagonist got his poo poo wrecked by two level 13 Ippon-Dataras. :eng99: They were still doing 100+ damage with Sledgehammer despite their level deficit, and since they decided to focus their efforts on murdering the main character (and got a critical in the process because of course they did) I couldn't do much to stop it. Switching to a phys-resistant persona would've helped a bit, but I didn't really get the chance. (edit: remembering they are weak to Bufu would also have been useful, as that was the only element I didn't try in that clusterfuck of a fight)

At least I had just saved, so it wasn't that bad.

Hey, shady but nice doctor started selling SP restore accessories somewhere along the way for the low low price of all yo yens, is target 3 as easy to one round as 2 or should I bite the bullet?

He's super easy, but you should get them regardless to solidify it.

I got loving beaned on hard yesterday. I got to the part of the first dungeon where you learn about seeing enemy levels, and then immediately bumped into the enemy that's supposed to be your way of learning "this is what a stronger enemy will look like" and he one shot my entire party with 4 back to back crits

Serves me right for playing on hard

I'm about to start the third dungeon (only now got around to downloading the free DLCs), but yeah, an extra 50,000 to spend on stuff will still help.

I was thinking about getting a refurbished PS3 just for this game (and a used copy of Persona Arena Ultimax). I got a Vita just for Persona 4: the Golden after my PS2 crapped out, and I mostly play PC games, now. If I do this, is the 80 gig a dumb move?

A used/refurb PS3 aint that expensive right now, and even if it's just for those two games that's like 200+ hours of entertainment alone so uh

yeah.

If you can find one of the first-run backwards-compatible PS3s grab those, otherwise whatever has the biggest HDD.
