jimmydalad posted:How bad is merciless difficulty? I'm going to be doing it on a new game plus, having already beaten the game on Hard. Also, I still have yet to max my guts and proficiency. Poor Haru never got past level 1 confidant status. I intend to heavily rectify that situation next playthrough. Merciless is just hard with nerfed exp and money gains.

Why do you get two Master Curry's when you make it, but only one Master Coffee. That seems dumb. Anyway, All links maxed get! This is actually rather lenient. I mean, I got it on the last day, but that's only because the person wasn't available the second to last day.

epenthesis posted:It doesn't help that she's brought into the Metaverse and introduced as the next party member before we actually learn much about her. Her awakening is less satisfying than the others because we were essentially told it was going to happen, but given only a lightly sketched reason why. Maybe if this wasn't a JRPG. If a character here had a name and a mugshot, and weren't a shopkeeper or already a confidant, they were probably going to become a party member.

UberJew posted:I put null nuclear on siegfried and that was my starter persona thanks to charge and auto-mataru pretty much from the moment i hit strength 10 until i fused vishnu with repel fire during the very definitely final dungeon Just to check and I guess make you feel bad if you happened to screw this up, did you do the 7th palace as late as possible? Because you can't do confidants (or at least party confidants) a week before a palace deadline, but you can clear that one and you'll suddenly have 5 more days of confidant time.

So just to summarize and finish this whole line of thought, she's a quarter Japanese, some amount Finnish, and presumably some amount american whose parents are fashion designers from Finland (this is how she got into modeling in the first place; she subbed in for a model at a fashion show of her parent's stuff). She travels because Fashion Designers travel, presumably.

Endorph posted:not really, they mentioned outright choosing between haru and her as opposed to just going 'okay she isn't going to be a party member actually,' which implies it was a little later in development when they were mapping out the story proper, as opposed to just who the cast would be. the fact that the choice was between her and haru specifically as opposed to her vs any other possible character that could exist in that slot implies they had mapped out the story with both haru and her and realized that they were the two most expendable characters and so one of them needed to be cut. So if Hifumi is Best Girl. And Haru was chosen over her. Does that make Haru Greatest Girl? Okay, Haru is Greatest Girl, it's canon now.

Saigyouji posted:It's less consumerism, and more absolute control. Befitting its name, Yaldabaoth is directly in parallel of the forces of Law, and YHVH Himself from the mainline SMT games, up to and including having the four archangels under its direct control. To it, any deviation from perfect order is a flaw in the very fabric of reality, to be corrected with extreme prejudice. It won't be satisfied until humanity is mindlessly obedient. Its whole "The sin of rebelling against a god is severe. As punishment, you shall taste pain everlasting." is a direct callback to SMT II, where YHVH says almost exactly the same thing after you defeat Him. Actually, going by Strange Journey and SMT IV (which don't necessarily have the same logic as Persona, granted), Yaldabaoth (called the Demiurge there) is actually a part of YHVH to begin with. Specifically, going by main series SMT ideas, he's a fragment representing God's desire to be obeyed. Which... pretty much explains Yaldabaoth's entire motive right there. He wants everyone to worship him, and absolutely nothing else. I suppose when you get down to it, he's the thing that drives all of YHVH's asshattery, since it always seems to boil down to "Worship me mindlessly or else", which is the Demiurge's entire deal. Persona 5 just happened to be the game that put Demiurge front and center. Hmm. With Strange Journey being remade, and Demiurge being the ultimate bonus boss of the game, I wonder if they'll give Persona 5 a nod.

Here I am finishing up the game, fusing what's left before beating the final boss. And I fuse Michael, and go to the Itemize out of curiosity, even though I can't use it because this game is dumb and limits you on that on the final loving day. "Judge of the Dead (Revolver): All Stats +10 " ... *starts mashing confirm even though I can't do it* Why you do this game.

Mailer posted:I'm pushing up to the point where I want a ridiculously overpowered Yoshitsune to roll the extra NG+ boss with. Anyone have a link to how to set one up that is immune to everything? I feel like the increased element count kind of ruined that sort of thing. Yoshitsune needs 7 skills to become at least null everything. He gets 5 inheritance slots, and you can sacrifice to get a 6th. Which still leaves you 1 short, which you then need to skill card.

ChaosArgate posted:What's wrong with Ryuji's instant kill thing? The highest level random encounter in the game is level 77 (Kali) (This is not counting the Reaper, mind) Instant Kill works against anything 10 levels lower than you. So once you hit level 87, you can no longer ambush things. Ever. This is particularly annoying with the red group encounter in the second to last room in the game, which give about 10k XP. Which, if you drop the rest of your party levels you up every 6 or so encounters. And you have to let them attack you rather than attacking first. For 12 levels. Or 8 levels if your goal is "Be high enough level to fuse any persona without using Strength", I suppose. Supremezero fucked around with this message at 21:37 on Apr 16, 2017 |

SyntheticPolygon posted:I beat the game very comfortably at level 70. Why the hell would you bother getting to 87? Because there exist persona up to level 93 (95 in NG+), so unless you want to spend fucktons of cash, you're leveling up to that to fuse them.

Harrow posted:I think social links are going to stay around because they're one of the pillars of the series at this point. If people want the RPG dungeon crawling without the life sim parts, that's what SMT is for (and, also, SMT owns and if anyone here is new to the series with Persona 5, go play SMT4/Apocalypse and Nocturne when you're done). I'm not really sure SMT4A qualifies as a spinoff... it's basically "This is SMT5, but it's tied even closer than usual (and in fact starts partway during SMT4), so we'll call it SMT4A instead".
