It also makes some of the early bosses easier, for some reason.

This threw me for a loop but I also don't know what his JP voice ever sounded like so maybe they're just making it closer to that?

He should have a new JP voice too since his original VA passed away in 2010. I don't know what the english VA sounds like because the game isn't here yet but I remember the JP trailers he had a really deep and menacing voice, which was odd.

They're really dealing with some heady stuff in this first story arc.

I audibly said "Oh, wow" during a certain scene, I wasn't expecting it to go so far.

I wasn't expecting the end of a dungeon not to have a boss right away, but you have to spend a day making a calling card, then another day fighting the boss. Ended up using up 5 days worth of time on the first dungeon instead of the three I planned for.

I went to the diner 4-5 times in a row before midterms but level 2 knowledge isn't enough to ace exams. Gah!

I've been working on charm and kindness so I can pick up chicks.

In P4 you got powerful accessories + bonus money for acing exams as well as points towards all your school friends social links, in this game it looks like good scores just net you some charm points. I think I got owned.

I feel like there's way more stuff to do in this game and they give you less time to do it in. I unlocked a confidant that may help with that but I haven't seen an opportunity to use the skill yet.

"level up temperance asap" is the only hint i'm using

I figured as much. It's expensive, though...

What's the best way to level up guts

Death link and going to the burger joint at night. Don't forget about the DVD rentals, there's a DVD that raises Guts a fair amount.

I do like Press Turn more even though Persona's combat system is pretty similar. Baton Pass is an awesome new addition, though.

I'm still only level 3 with him because it takes like 4 nights to gain one level and nighttime is way more important than day in this game.

Well I wasn't really expecting this to happen (social link spoiler)You can start relationships with ANY of the female links, including your own teacher. I'm dating the doctor now. Feels a little wrong to me.

I think Hermit has taken the number one spot for me, now that I've unlocked all of them. I lol'd when Futaba called Mishima an NPC.

It speeds up quite a bit after rank 4, too. It's more in line with other links. The fact that you need to wait to August to advance is probably why it's so slow at first.

Of the confidants I didn't max in my first playthrough, 3 were late game and/or locked behind level 5 social stats so I ran out of time, and the other was Lovers because I'd rather hang out with Yusuke instead.

Should I wait until the last possible day to beat the casino dungeon? I think this where the player gets caught at the beginning of the game and IDK if the days will be wasted if I do it to early.

Secure an infiltration route as early as possible, you're not allowed to send the calling card until the last day anyway.

It does. It's a shitload of money though. I wanted to fuse Lucifer before I beat the game but I didn't want to grind out the millions of yen it would've required.

One thing that's weird to me about this game is the lack of secret/super bosses. I don't get the point of the really strong personas without them.

I'm not positive about this game but in the other Persona games the super bosses were the velvet room attendants in that game and they were New Game + only. I'm assuming the same is true for this game.

Also I figured out pancakes right away too :smugbird:

I went with Makoto, Yusuke, and Haru. I liked Yusuke as a character too much not to use him. I used Makoto mostly as a healer/buffer but I definitely felt like she was the weak link in my team by the end. Haru can deal tons of damage with One Shot, One Kill with her passive gun damage up skills, and it has a high crit rate. She also has access to Psy moves which I found to be on the rarer side.
