I'm gonna do English for the first playthrough then try Japanese, I usually just stick with English but the JP track seems real good.

How hard is it to max out social links without a guide?

Is it like P3- hahaha, no loving way or do they give you some leeway ala P4?

From what I've heard it's utterly unforgiving on a first playthrough. The guide I saw suggests rotating saves constantly.

I did it first playthrough only gaming the answers and looking up some schedule poo poo in the end. Had to roll back a save a few days in the last quarter when the game just throws a curveball and fucks up your party's social links until you finish a dungeon. Luckily I had the wherewithal to make a third save that was at the final optimal time to start and finish it but Morgana *minor spoilers* the fucker literally says to take as much time as you need and acts like the dungeon is a point of no return so like hell am I holding that L.

I only looked up optimal social link answers, otherwise just did whatever and didn't really worry about it, and I maxed every single link except one which was at 6. I don't think it will be that difficult, but maybe I just lucked into a good route.

i will also be playing with jp audio, and i like dubs and think there are plenty of things where the dub is better than the jp audio. the dub for this seems pretty bleh (though maybe they've improved it with the delay,) while the jp VAing seems pretty good. I also don't like when US vas mispronounce names or honorifics or whatever, which the trailers had a lot of.

I honestly didn't care much for the bag but after seeing the material on the inside actually looking like the ingame styling that got me kinda into it. probably just gonna keep it as a decoration and never actually use it but still, that's a cool little attention to detail that they didn't have to do.

At least the English Ann didn't use her natural speaking voice when recording for the game holy poo poo.
The name pronunciations are pretty bad but otherwise it's ok. I might switch between the 2 dubs on and off for the sake of variety

I'm incapable of doing this. I tried with FFXV but it was too jarring and I just had to pick one.

From what little we've seen, Anne's english VA seems really good.

I like most of the English VA cast well enough but Anne and Yusuke are the standout performances.
