wth, there's no gay people in Persona...

:confused:

plenty of homophobia and transphobia, but oddly, nothing actually overt, its just left bubbling under the surface, I mean, its literally a game for school kids, so....

the intended audience for super mario is old Italian men, hence why it is virulently racist

For the US, maybe, for Japan its around the protagonists age give or take a couple of years, sure, plenty of adults play it, I was over 20 when I played P1 in Japanese, but its pretty obviously framed as such.

I'm planning on replaying P4G on a long plane ride. Does anyone know of any good ways to get an offline guide on my phone or something? My thought was just to print to pdf one of the online guides and send it to my phone, but if there was a better way that anyone knew of....

e: mainly looking for weaknesses, fusion guide, confidant and school answers

I dont have an answer, but what I would attempt is trying to download GameFAQs guides as txt. is this still possible? lol

failing that, I would try to find a PDF scan of a strategy guide on Archive Org. there's also some third thing I am forgetting.

anecdotally, I find Persona 4 real easy to jump back into 100% blind and missing a Press Turn here or there, and messing around with difficulty settings

I got the will to drive myself sleepless
I've been focused on finishing Xenoblade 3 and got that done, I'm poised to finish off P3R once I'm back home from the trip I'm on. Just rounded out the final full moon boss, just have to work towards the final months of the game.

P4G is really good and to be taken with a monumentally large pinch of salt.

Those comments just posted from japanese players about Akechi seemed to be a majority of women in late 20s and 30s.

I told myself I wasn’t going to fast forward through any dialogue or cutscenes on this playthrough of p5r but I get so impatient I end up doing it anyways and missing all major plot points. Then I go back and skim the log

I played P1 After my GF had played it, we lost touch but I know she'd be into the esthetique of the later SMT:P titles.
to make it simple to understand, those women are Persona's Bronies

Personally, I think P4G has the best story, characters, music and setting of the series so far. The plot is a cosy-ish murder mystery in a sleepy town and provides for a more interesting setting than other entries.

Having said that, this is Persona so expect some incredible juvenile bullshit in the humour department regarding fat people, women who can't cook, casual homophobia etc. and all the other late 90's / early 00's teen comedy tropes that weren't even funny then.

I personally don't give a poo poo and roll my eyes at the daftness of it all when it does happen but others find the distaste a bit much, which is fair enough.

You'll love P4G if you love extremely ugly backgrounds that inexplicably look significantly worse than they did on the ps2.
