Gag dammit, what level am I supposed to be when I'm about to fight Shadow Yukiko? Level 13 or so? I don't remember P4 being this difficult - oh wait I'm playing on hard.

Must not read thread. Must not be spoiled.  How are you supposed to kill gold monsters again? Is it just buff/debuff and hope for the best or is there a trick to it?

The only thing is that I suspect it happens way less often than it did in P4 or P3P, but maybe it's supposed to work that way.

The only thing I wish this game had was the ability to help people out without having to constantly hit SOS SOS SOS.  I'd totally love an alert system just hanging out in the upper left or right corner. But, make it optional for those that wouldn't want it.

Word of warning to people who're trying to figure out when they should end their game. Endgame spoilers. Starting clear data from the Bad End will start you out with practically nothing, save your expression/whatever stats and some key items. This makes the game nearly impossible to speed right through and you'll basically be doing everything all over again. Keep old saves. Be warned. Also, Teddie has a new VA? I had no idea. vv I could have sworn the PS2 version had me start off with a lot more than this. Pollyanna fucked around with this message at 09:08 on Nov 27, 2012 |

Just finished the true ending and epilogue. It's all over  God drat, was that awesome. I thought the original was great, but this just blows it out of the loving water. Definitely get this if you're on the fence, I'd even say that it's worth getting the system for it if you're so inclined to do things like that. True end and epilogue spoilers: Oh god that was amazing. Seeing everyone six months later  Everybody looks really happy, and Nanako really is starting to resemble her mother.drat, Naoto  Kanji  Rise hair big hair. Apparently Marie's associated persona is Kaguya? Sweet, that's the one I used for the endgame. Wish we could have used her as a party member, but I think it's better this way. Speaking of Marie, I think it went something like this: 1. Izanami -> Dies after giving birth to Kagutsuchi, splits into: 2. Izanami-no-Ookami + Ameno-sagiri + Kunino-sagiri + Kusumi-no-Ookami AKA Marie -> Regroup after True End into: 3. Izanami-no-Mikoto AKA Mariko Kusumi AKA Magic Weatherwoman I suppose the game made a point out of redeeming Izanami by using the truth theme against the "do not look at me" portion of the "origin of death" myth, so that she can die for real this time and be reborn as Marie. Hence why the protagonist's persona is Izanagi. As such, I still think the MC is supposed to be Izanagi's reincarnation v v So in some way, Marie is implied to be the intended route (or maybe not, considering how it went last time).The world of the Midnight Channel (i.e. inside the TV) is probably supposed to be a manifestation of humanity's thoughts and memories given form, like a metaphysical "fantasy" world vs. our world of reality. Kinda like Gensokyo, without the "forgotten" part. (Or maybe it is, considering the whole conscious vs. unconscious thing?) So! Any chance for more? Or is it Persona 5 from now on? I have no idea how they're going to top this. Pollyanna fucked around with this message at 10:46 on Dec 1, 2012 |

One of the best things about Golden is that the animated cutscenes are actually (relatively) well made this time around. Well, except for a certain couple of scenes that are just completely and utterly unnecessary...

So say you're in Yukiko's Castle, and head up to Floor 4 from Floor 3, if you go back down to Floor 3, it'll have a different layout. Note that if you warp out of the dungeon and go back in, the floor will be the same as you left it UNLESS you went back to the entrance, in which case it will reset.

If you really want me to go into specifics, both hot spring cutscenes are a little ridiculous, the first one was typical stupid anime fare but the second one did not need the split-second flash of Teddie and Yosuke getting boners. At least, I hope I wasn't just seeing boners in everything.

I don't remember california rolls being in the original, for example. And I think the correct choices for recipes are, in fact, how you're ideally supposed to cook them all IRL.

Not forseeing the connection between Izanagi and the MC is nearly impossible because the MC's own persona is Izanagi himself I liked Marie. Sure, she's a little cliche, but it's sort of difficult to ease a new character into an established story without getting all the other characters to interact with her. Cliches are only as good as they are written, and I think she was written well. It was nice to see Izanami given some redemption, too.

Snix posted:So, I heard this is a long game, and it most certainly is longer than other games, but I still can't shake this feeling that it's short. I can easily blow through dungeons in one day, I'm fifty hours in, and I'm level 70. I'm after Mitsou's dungeon, though I haven't activated the next dungeon yet. How far am I? I mean, with P3P, I clocked in 100-120 hours, and the in-game time didn't seem to go as fast as it does here, though P3P was also my first venture into the Persona series. Plus, I beat P3P over the span of several months, and I've just been blowing through P4G over the span of a week and a half. Am I just going too fast? Is there more to the game that I just haven't gotten to yet? Is it just a shorter game? You are a little under halfway done. edit: What difficulty are you playing on?

This is also a shameful question, how does a Persona's stats affect damage dealt/taken? What's the difference between armor defense, hit points, and En? Does Lu affect critical hits? How does Ag improve Hit/Ev, if at all? What do the attributes determine, specifically?
