I forgot which review or preview or whatever it was I read, but I thought it was kinda funny that for them one of the big selling points of P5R was "they let you stream/youtube more of it!"

I mean, I kind of understand that it's important to some people, mostly streamers I'd assume, but I never quite understood the outcry about it when P5 originally came out. Definitely not enough to understand how this can be touted as a feature to sell the game on now.

Not to mention that pretty much everybody ignored the arbitrary streaming restrictions anyway. Yeah you couldn't stream using the PS4's own software past a certain in-game date but anybody with an external capture card could easily bypass that. I watched several people stream P5 all the way through and if twitch was supposed to do anything about it, they didn't. Tons of endgame content clips popped on Youtube pretty quickly as well IIRC.

Maybe it was more strongly enforced in Japan.

It's just annoying because you can't even make ingame screenshots for yourself or friends without jumping through hoops. I remember some people speculating that they might remove the restriction with a patch after a while, but they never did :argh:

At the very least the streaming stuff was a whole bunch of extra labor expended in order to fail to solve a problem that didn't actually exist

Here’s Joker’s “third tier” Persona: Raoul

https://youtu.be/OfjUvfV_TWI

It has a unique skill to put all enemies to sleep. It loses out on Satanael’s near-invulnerability, but comes at a level low enough to let you pump up its stats.

It’s DLC only and has no in-story relevance, so shell out some cash for this if you really feel you need it.

Remember the dragon you were invited to breed back in Fire Emblem 2013? Perhaps the issue is not with immutable characteristics of the Japanese Spirit, but with the produce created by capitalist media conglomerates, custom designed to cater to a dispossessed, alienated class of degenerates itself entirely the creation of capitalism? Perhaps raging against this state of cultural affairs is actually not intolerant prudishness but a loving moral imperative?

Whoa, imagined a Persona game actually tackling material like the absurdity of institutionalised fantasy pedophilia at the core of some of the most popular media franchises and what this says about capitalism, capitalist media and its specific Japanese incarnation... Haha, nah, just merc this one bad politician and I'm sure it'll work itself out

you invite her to your room, she sits on your bed, she watches you exercise with your shirt off, it fades to black with her head on your shoulder and it says how you rested

So, Satanael returns and shows exactly why he’s the game’s true ultimate Persona. Now he gets Black Viper and a unique passive that acts as Amp All and stacks with other boosts.

Huh, I just realized that P5S is probably named after Shibuya's Scramble Crossing. So that's a thing. Ryuji makes a big deal about it when you go to Iwai's shop; did he do that in the original?

At the rate I have to look up unfamiliar words and weird conversational grammar it sounds like it'll come out just as I reach the new endgame content in the Japanese release :v:
