LionArcher posted:Thanks folks. I’m going to saw screw it and order both the limited run physical of 3 and 4, and then wait to start any of them till they both arrive. Then play them in order. 2024 is the year of the backlog for me, so this makes me pumped for more great games.  I'd say start with P3P to witness the heights of persona then the immediate downfall soon after in P4G eventually returning to the same greatness as P5R for the ending.

That doesn't make any sense. Any time you need to go to the Velvet Room, be it for a request or just getting a Persona, it's multiple minutes. It's just annoying. Might as well say it's a "skill issue" that there's no save points during the day. Nah man, the game is jank

I get that, but I basically just always had personas of the S links I was pursuing in my stock even if I wasn't actively using them so I very very rarely if at all had to do this.

I've been playing FES again recently, about to do Hermit, and there's just so many little problems that add up. Like, you can't examine your Persona skills on their status screens, you have to cross-reference their descriptions in the skill menu where you heal.

I'm very much looking to (what I assume will be) being able to pick my party member's skills and being able to remember old ones like Persona 5 Strikers.

Arist posted:Walking around gets really old in FES too because you can't teleport, so I don't really agree with this either yeah fwiw I basically just always fast travel in these games unless it actually makes me walk there I also miss an insane amount of dialogue as a result though, so perhaps it's not really the best way to play.. but it's just so much faster and these games are already really long

"sure but give me like half an hour, i have to go put on a different personality"

"sure but give me like half an hour, i have to go put on a different personality" I think the intended purpose of it is to encourage players to keep a diverse selection of Persona onhand rather than just one or two, but it's too easy to just grab one out of your compendium so it loses that.

the most interesting it ever gets is the first month of P3 where there's no compendium so you have to fuse everything on demand, but also, that loving sucked and I don't miss it

I dunno if there's been an update saying "we were just kidding, that remake of Mass Destruction was done by some intern" but assuming the video posted earlier is accurate, it be unforgivable for a new Psrsona fan to not hear the original, all time great version first https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iU_RpMwE37g

all that actually did was make me stick to having one combat persona and maybe a support one as back-up while dedicating all my other slots to having to make as few velvet room visits as possible Felt kind of counterproductive to the whole Wild Card special status deal, tbh

Actually, to be fair, I do tend to do more fusion when I don't have a Persona I need, so it's marginally successful at least

You're going to see the final boss, new persona (or personas), and all sorts of stuff like five minutes after it drops. (Which I am looking forward to since there's at least one thing I expect to see conversations over.)

I played through like 80 hours of P3 FES when it was released and then went all the way through P3P about 5 years ago. When Reload was announced I was pretty sure I was going to skip spending another 100+ hours but every little video and reveal is making me more hype. Music sounds awesome except the weird noises in Mass Destruction and the new singer seems cool in a P4 singer kind of way. The only downside is it comes out the same month as FF7 Rebirth, so I’ll probably wait for a few months to see how the reception is.

The best new arrangement in that selection is easily Changing Seasons, imo, but I feel like it's honestly too energetic now? It legitimately kind of goes too hard for when Changing Seasons actually plays in-game. The runner-up for me is probably Living With Determination - Iwatodai Dorm

Seeing as it was the last day and just saying yolo… I ended up ordering both 3 and 4 physical from limited run games. Just think they will look better next to each other with 5 on the shelf you know? I’ll wait for them to come and start 3. 2024 will be the year of the backlog (mostly).

IS is really beginning to wear me down. Any game would by this point and after all these hours but having a Rumor monster just reset all my Persona ranks so I have to grind more is not exactly helping. And to think, I wanna start up EP after this. Because, well, I know what's going on here. I know who is responsible and that they will get away with it. If I want that catharsis of actually loving up their plans and stopping them, I gotta play EP. That final boss is the strongest, fondest memory I have from that game. I really wonder what they were thinking only releasing EP in English originally? There are probably no interviews that survive about this if they even exist. I just remember asking a find about this and he said you could and many did play EP with no real knowledge of IS. But, well, that seems hard to me. "Who are these kids in the final dungeon?!" I was thinking for EP I might try a weapons only run if that is even possible. And by possible I mean reasonable since getting to level 99 in FFVII's first dungeon is "possible" but no ssne person would do it. If weapons do like no damage so bosses take ten years to defeat, I won't bother.

My budget's a little tight right now so I think I'm going to pick up Tactica on Game Pass and then buy the Steam version later so I can play the DLC with Akechi and Kasumi. The DLC with them is a separate campaign, right? You can't use it in the main game?
