Same reason Hifumi rewards you with knowledge after her max knowledge lock.

They probably just copy-pasted the rewards, or reworked the requirements late in development and no one cared enough to change it :shrug:

What do you get from hanging out with a Confidant that's already maxed? Is it just a way to see any special location scenes you might have missed?

Yeah, and to get any of the locational knickknacks and the like you missed.

Another wish for Persona 5: The Rerelease: stop showing the social stat screen/"Joker's social stat went up!" stuff when you get points for a stat that's maxed out. No idea why it still shows up. Or why it needed like three steps in the first place (do we really need a pop-up saying "Joker's <stat> went up" right after seeing "Point Up!", for example?).

Oof. Hard mode is kicking my rear end on the regular--I completely forgot you got an instant game-over if your main character dies. Still, I made it to the end of the first Palace and I'm about to fight the boss. I've been maintaining 3 save slots just so I don't have to start all over if I get completely screwed, but I think I've got this. Level 10, got the strongest equipment at the shop, decent selection of Persona, Baton Pass on everyone but the cat.

Now I did say I wanted to consult the thread as little as possible, but in the interest of not wasting all the hours on futile romance it is very important I know whether I can make back-alley surgeon my waifu

Yes.

All female links with the exception of the velvet room twins and the automatic one are potential romances.

The first palace is honestly the hardest one, if you ask me. That palace on Normal was tougher than the fourth palace on Hard for me.

If you think calling me names is gonna get a rise out me, think again. I like my life as an idiot!
With the first five palaces, in terms of difficulty, this is where I landed on things when playing through on Normal doing palace clears in one day: 3>1>5>2>4

In terms of fun, I'd rank them 4>5>1>3>2

I think they should let you take the social stats to rank 6 in crimson, it takes a massive amount of points and gets you some cute optional scenes or something. That way it isn't as annoying to keep getting stats and the ng+ calendar isn't quite as dead

A new DDS would be kind of odd, given that DDS2 had a rather solid conclusion.

poo poo this is rad as hell and is motivating me to get back to DDS again, I've started it several times to end up distracted by life or other things and it's a shame because it deserves my love and attention.

It keeps giving me this bullshit about how I don't have the rights for the DLC, which is impossible since I've restored my license like 5 times. I've restared the ps4, I've delted the game data, I've done everything. I can't lose my saves, I was deep into NG+. help

Yes. You only get to pick one to get an item on Christmas that raises your affection with them quicker in NG+

You also get an exclusive scene if you two time people.

This happened to me out of the blue as well. I don't know how to fix it but I just downloaded a free dlc that I didn't have yet and when I reloaded my saves were working. Beyond that I dunno.

I keep several backup saves ever since.

Cool. It's my fav. track in the game so far.

It's a lyrical sequel to the title theme "Wake Up, Get Up, Get Out There". I think the choruses use the same chords, but I'm also pretty tone deaf so don't take my word on it.

Got the game recently. I want to enjoy it more because it's a fantastically well-made game but it's really starting to bug me how much this game is railroading me. It's filled up like 90% of my recent days with mandatory stuff that cuts out both my possible day activities and night activities. I'm only 1.5 bosses in though. Does it get better about this?

I don't want to sound overly negative, it's jsut a bit frustrating because one of my favorite parts of Persona 3/4 was planning out my weekly schedules and I've barely been able to do that here. The existence of the Morganamobile almost makes up for that though.

It eases off you more and more with each boss and clears up pretty much entirely by August.
