Hello, I have made a discovery about Persona 5: as it turns out, Makoto is both cool and good.

I'm halfway through the Emperor link and the way MC did the Christ pose made me laugh so hard I had to put the controller down, holy poo poo. Just his confusion and the "ehhhh"-ness of it. edit: I love how Yusuke is basically Rohan Kishibe but less mean. Sort of. BaDandy fucked around with this message at 06:06 on Apr 13, 2017 |

A lot of scenes have small incidental animations between characters (usually Morgana) that I really liked to see. This game is truly a refinement, growth and expansion of everything that these Persona games have attempted before. To think that Persona 3 was this muddy-looking PS2 game with stiff character models and assets recycled from even older PS2 titles and to see Persona 5, with so much polish and pizzazz in every single scene, it's drat near inspiring. It isn't to say that this game makes its predecessors redundant; I don't think that'll be the case. Persona 4 is a damned, damned fine game and it's aged great, better I think than P3 has at that. But even Persona 3 still functions pretty drat well on a mechanical level and I think the story is still well-told enough to remain impactful even if the game seems dated in comparison to its successors.

I just got in here so maybe it'll grate on me after a while but gently caress all y'all, I like the music in palace 5.

50 hours in and I just learned that every Persona has a specific mood that tells you how you're supposed to answer their questions during Negotiation. I was just winging it before and still managed to capture them a good 60% of the time.

It would be amazing if they did the animation for those two protagonist poses and one Yusuke pose and it's just for that single rank.

Some are obvious (Justice, anything involving balance) while others are less so (gently caress off Magicians)

See, Makoto is the most plot relevant romanceable girl, and also has great Frei skills and status heal skills to boot. I always keep her in my party. The game has a fair share of party members who aren't nearly as good as Makoto though. Take Ryuji for example, who looks like Bart Simpson, is loud and generally freaks me out. The last interaction I had with Ryuji was taking him to the confessional a month ago and I've dodged every message of his since. Truly, the best parts of this game were the parts I wrote myself. impure flutter fucked around with this message at 06:49 on Apr 13, 2017 |

Weird thing I just realized but (Endgame spoilers, kinda) Goro's portrait in his all out attack doesn't have a mask on. I wonder if it's supposed to be ~~symbolic~~ or if they just couldn't make the pointy beak thing look good.

Sojiro is a better anime dad than Dojima by a huge margin. It's difficult for some to accept but drat it's true

Just finished this game, 115 hours. Only didn't max Sojiro, Chihaya and Haru. Incredible from start to finish. I loved everything about this game except for Morgana constantly dragging you to bed. I am really looking forward to a new game+ playthrough eventually, maybe a month or 2 from now. Final party I typically ran with was Ryuji, Yusuke, and Makoto, mostly just to get all 3 buffs up at the same time while letting Joker charge in round 1. Yoshitsune is a straight up busted persona. Finally something has replaced P4 as my favorite game.

Honestly, as the game goes on Ryuji just keeps sliding down in my opinion, while the rest continue to mostly be great. Just before the school trip now, and again really wishing for that duct tape. Apparently he somewhat redeems himself at some point in the future though? Also, even for a moment thinking it's a difficult choice whether to visit LA or Hawaii? Really? Let alone his... difficulties regarding geography as to where they are.

Real good true details: In Untouchables' back office there are multiple display cases of gourmet lollipops, one of which is completely empty. This means that Iwai doesn't keep a toothpick in his mouth, but that's he's constantly eating lollipops and keeping the stick. best dad

The Gorp posted:So it's agreed. as someone that just finished it, I guess I'll be the odd man out, I quite liked palace 5. It was the first palace where the puzzles actually required you to think a little instead of just turning on detective vision and touching all the things or remembering a short series of numbers, and it was consistently tough yet fair with it's enemies without just resorting to stupid poo poo like archangels you have no good way to deal with or anubis who can only really be fought without tearing your hair out on hard by cheesing them with isis + despair. The boss was cool, the reveals with okumura at the end have made him my second favorite antagonist so far (after obvious first place kamoshida) and haru is cool and good. The fact that it's not the lovely boring pyramid where you don't get a party member till the end, the boss is scripted as gently caress and is the most blatant about just reusing the same gimmick over and over of any palace also does it a lot of favors.

Captain Baal posted:Goro is never mentioned again, not even the sentiment of his existence appears for the Confidant based stuff. Even Shinjiro got like a lost "You go buddy" in for P3, idk what happened with Goro that he just vanishes from pure existence. Not directly but There's a news report later that talks about a body that has lacerations and has indications it was dumped from elsewhere. I took that to be referring to Goro, as you do not hear the beginning or the end. TBH I'd rather he stay dead. Dude's still a psychotic murderer at the end of the day, a redemption plot would feel gross as hell. The fact that the redemption didn't work was my favorite part of that scene.

How long is the final dungeon? I'm just at the first saferoom at the passageway and I don't mind it but kinda curious if it's gonna be a couple hours or if it's relatively short.
