Sae would 100% have thrown Makoto onto the streets if she was gay/disabled/trans/etc..

Probably not. I can see her getting even more annoyed at Makoto's questioning if she were disabled, as it's yet more effort she has to put into parenting her, and demanding that she stays in the closet if she was LGBT, but abandoning her would cause way more problems to her than it would solve.

If Sae is romanceable that makes Sojiro's bullshitting skills in the Valentine Day scene (date them all version) even more impressive, since he manages to convince two sisters who live together that you're not two-timing them.

p5r is going to release and it's actually just going to be the exact same game as p5, except you see sojiro's bullshitting in action instead of it cutting to afterwards

Yup. Of course, they effectively communicated that Kamoshida was a self-absorbed rapist to begin with, so this feels just a tad gratuitous.

Complete with a buttshot, and if what I've heard is true, a weakness to physical attacks.

I beat the first palace, went to momentos, just got the anime scene about the art student character.. what’s considered where the game starts to pick up?

I pass through a lot of repetitive dialogue (WHAT DID YOU SAY???) and see to do the same actions which never seem to increase my stats.

Is there some time when the game play or story or setting comes into its own?

I'm going to try and avoid Royal spoilers until it comes out in English, but I am listening to the soundtrack and oh my god the Mementos music is SO MUCH BETTER.

Man I hope they didn't feel the need to include anime scenes like the one where kamoshida rips ann's shirt.

ann is cool and I wish she had a cooler person to write for her. Oh well.

It would be nice if they would rewrite '>hug Ann as she breaks down in tears' so that it did not equal 'ah so you wish to be lain with her.'

yeah wanting to hug your friend because they're crying and having a bad time is not necessarily the same as wanting to date them, but P5 does not allow this :v:

Depends. Do you want to play P5 again and then after the regular game is over have all the new stuff happen then? 95% of the royal content is backloaded

I'm not actually interested in doing another first playthrough. If they just let you new game + for Royal, I'd buy it, but at this point I'd rather just youtube the new stuff.
