It's taken me until NG+ to realize you can save at your hideout. It just never occurred to me to try it since you couldn't do it at Junes last game.

Also for some reason my TV overscans and it doesn't have a feature I can find to shut it off so the edges are wonky.

Hmm. Think I'm out of Mementos bosses to confuse. Makes the financial planning a little trickier. If what I'm hearing about Palace 6 is true and you can't make a run for the treasure until the very last day, do you still have to deal with the usual restrictions on hanging out with your party members that whole time?

Just finished the game tonight, and holy hell was that a fantastic ride. Clocked in 105 hours because I'm a bit of a slowpoke, maxing out my social stats and almost all of my confidants. Only Tower and Devil didn't make it all the way, but that's because one is useless and the other is boring. This is a good game.

Tower has good perks and minimises the amount of time/gallows it takes for Yoshitsune to become Death Incarnate, but yeah, Devil is the weakest confidant overall by a long shot. Congrats on finishing your anime teenage adventure!

Alder posted:Mishima is bad regardless if we added more SL events. Floral pants man is the hero we deserve. What surprises me more about Mishima is that no one involved in making and/or translating the game reacted to the fact that he keeps going between knowing you guys are the phantom thieves and not knowing it. It's especially funny when he sends you two messages at the same time about some Mementos requests you did, where in the first message he knows it was you who caused the change of heart and in the second message he doesn't.

Yeah, the ability your Persona inherits when you use the gallows is random, so if you're fishing to inherit something in particular, you have to save scum. It's why it takes forever to make those super-Arsenes that some people have made. Leveling up the Persona doesn't take long, and you can fish for the stat gains you want without save scumming, but the ability isn't revealed until after the gallows fusion is done.

Actually several times you outright say you are. Like when you change the heart of that SM girl, he asks you in mail "how was it?" and your choices all confirm that you did it, like the "she treated us like pigs" one. And of course later on you both act like you have no idea who the thieves are, so.....

You have countless options to reply to Mishima that you have no idea who the Phantom Thieves are, that you don't know who changed this person heart, that yes this person scamming the elderly sucks but what can you a high schooler do about it. It's a joke and also plausible deniability, it's just not entirely consistent

There's a point where your only choices to Mishima implicate you directly as a Phantom Thief even if you've issued constant denials or beat around the bush before that.

They hold up quite well! Persona 4 is one of my favorite rpg's. The Persona 5 mechanics may have spoiled you though. but both persona 3 and 4 hold up really well and have interesting stories. If you are going to try them out. I would suggest the Persona 3 portable version and the Persona 4 golden version Sefal fucked around with this message at 15:57 on May 22, 2017 |

You have to strengthen it with gallows so the ability it gets is random Edit: I probably should have read more posts than just yours before replying like a dumbasss

Yeah, a sequel is more than inevitable. I'm reasonably sure this is Atlus's best-selling game of all time worldwide. Persona was already their most popular series and this one outsold both previous games combined, if I remember the numbers I found correctly. Persona 4 holds up great, especially if you have either a Vita or PSTV and can play the Golden version. It's not going to be quite as smooth as Persona 5, gameplay-wise, but it's definitely still very good. Persona 3 might feel a little rough, depending on which version you play (and unlike 4, there's not really a "best" version--the two best versions each have their pros and cons), but it's also a really unique game with great atmosphere and a really different story, so it's also worth playing.

The stories and characters in all Persona games are pretty well done, although of course not every character is exactly a fan favorite (someone post angrygourmetking.png here) and Persona 3 in particular has some real pacing issues. edit: I should probably mention that if you buy a PSTV (or a Vita, I guess, but the PSTV should be much cheaper), you can get all the older Persona games on it. If you're in the EU, you'll only be able to get the first half of Persona 2, Innocent Sin (the second, Eternal Punishment, is only available in the US as a PSOne Classic), but that's still pretty good.

I just realized that I never went back to check on bloodstorm stalker girl, and now it's too late. I wonder what some of the earlier confidant scenes would look like if I had waited too. Ryuji: And it's all thanks to this guy, mysterious hooded figure you have never seen before. e: Makoto: This is my incredibly charming boyfriend, mysterious hooded figure you have never seen before.

I've been replaying Golden and I've realized that making Golden Hands disgorge stupid amounts of EXP + making Player Advantage so easy to get, were both really really stupid decisions. Someone on the dev team must disagree with me about that last one, considering how easy the stealth is in P5. Specifically, my beef is that if you wanna get a bunch of money to play around with fusion in P4G, you can't avoid also getting overleveled to hell and back. At least in P5 the "massive amounts of money real quick" and "massive amounts of EXP real quick"-tricks are separate.

Don't complain. It probably like the really cheap SP refill option in Persona 3 Portable which allows you to go through Tartarus in one sitting instead of multiple days due to the old Tired status being saved for you leave....which half the time later in the game didn't even trigger either.

It scales based on your level and is separate for every character for good measure. At higher levels, it takes more fights to get Tired/Sick. It ends up taking so many fights rather quickly that you have to actively try to get it. It's not that it "didn't trigger;" you just didn't fight enough things for it to happen.
