Mordiceius posted:Yeah, I introduced my wife to Persona 4 via the Giant Bomb endurance run and it drove her loving crazy that they never maxed Kanji's social link as he was one of her favorites. One thing I'll definitely do is max all the party member confidants--that's pretty easy to do in most Persona games and this one seems extra lenient. I'm guessing some of the side confidants are going to get left behind eventually, though. Saint Freak posted:There is a site called Youtube where you can watch them all. It's not the same!

I'm all for people playing the way they want, with the guide or without it. There is no right or wrong decision as to use the guide. Different people have different goals/playstyles and everyone must make the choice themselves. Everyone should just have fun and play they way they want. This game is good.

Meanwhile I've maxed Anime Bernie Sanders, Doc Gothula, and Becky. Gun Dad is at Rank 8 too.

A replay of this would probably be dramatically shorter on account of being able to fast-forward through the intro and stomp all random encounters under your foot like a laughing god, but "shorter than 80 hours" isn't a high bar to clear. Still probably going to do it at some point.

Was coffeedad's link gated behind beating the third palce to get it up to rank 3 or does he normally just take a shitton of hanging out with and making coffee to get from 2 to 3?

Coffee dad isn't locked at third palace but he is dealing with some poo poo and so you get only minimal points from hanging out with him or making coffee, and yeah it makes it take ages to rank him up. He does stop at rank 4 until dungeon 4 is done but after that getting new ranks becomes a lot quicker and the kindness boost gets bigger as well. I'd say it's worth it though because he is a very good Dad with good coffee facts and you should be buds with him.

Are guns worth it for damage at all? Up through the second Palace I haven't upgraded my guns at all because I only use them to knock down enemies who are weak to gun.

If you just unload your entire clip into a guy you can deal pretty decent damage, and since it's multiple attacks per round there's a good chance you'll get a crit. I don't think it'll ever set the world on fire or anything though, but after starting the Iwai link you can upgrade your basic guns to pretty high levels with minimal costs. So I've been doing that and it doesn't seem to be too bad an investment.

Good, I wanna get his link to 10 along with most/all of the party members and probably the teacher. I'm focusing mostly on stats so I can 100% a NG+.

For most people they're just an extra damage type/crit attempter/status effect inducer, but Ryuji and Haru can tear poo poo up with their guns. Especially Haru, geez.

He gets a level 5 Kindness block at rank 7 though so prepare for that. So many good confidants get really high social blocks in like the mid-game and it sucks. I don't think it's too hard to max stats this time around though since a bunch of confidants give bonuses to them and there's so many options to improve them. I've got level 4 in everything by September and i'm hopefully not too far from level 5 charm and knowledge.

Scorps posted:This is my first Persona and am roughly mid May I believe? I was just wondering how people manage to clear the palaces in 1 night? It took me like 4 to clear out the first palace so I'm just wondering if I'm majorly missing something. I did try to exploit weaknesses whenever possible but I basically just had to leave when I ran out of SP each day. Should I have relied more on auto attacks? I didn't see the advice to buy new weapons until after I had beaten it but I'm just wondering as it is gearing towards the 2nd Palace if there is some major thing I'm missing that would shorten things up more. Part of it is system mastery, ive been playing SMT games for so long Ill be able to guess weaknesses on a lot of monsters the first time I encounter them. Its nice to clear palaces in a day but if you have to take another all youre missing out on are two skillups. Three days is probably where Id start fretting if youre new. Also the first dungeons in these games are usually pretty tough just because you dont have access to a lot of your tool set, like the ma- spells which make life a lot easier. Ill run away from a fight before I have to cast bufu five times just to get the AOA

Really impressed by the smart social commentary as the story plays out. Thematically I think this is the strongest Persona game so far.

So all of sudden during Palace 4 I can't continue asking for money during a hold up? Is it because I advanced Sun to rank 5? This is real frustrating, why? Before I could ask, then either press for more or go all out. Now its just money and they run off.

They just do that sometimes, it's nothing to do with ranking up Sun. The only time they're guaranteed to run off is if the initial option is red (which also gives you more money anyway.)

gently caress you Anubis. You're worse than those loving turd demon guys from Palace 3 who sucked up SP because of their physical resistances. But at least you could headbutt the assholes and negate their Rampage.

There's a few points where you open a path to go back to the entrance or that first save room. I really feel like that palace was made really early on because it's one of the things we saw in the older promotional stuff
