SyntheticPolygon posted:Also, I really feel like i'm always a step or 2 behind where i'm expected to be with social stats. Only got Guts and Prof at level 3 and although i've spent the last few days grinding Knowledge and Charm for social links they still haven't changed. Post-dungeon 3 what level should my stats really be at to not get gated by anything coming up soon? I'm at the same place (like dungeon 3 is clear with ~13 days left) and have all 2s except Prof 3. I'm a little worried about this too, but I feel like I'm right about on par bc most of them have to be ready to rollover anytime now. I think it's weird how you can get the maid service and what I assume is a weapon shop owner S Link very early but likely won't have the Guts for a very long time.

Hunt11 posted:As a general point make sure you are doing the Strength link. For the 2nd and 3rd boss the persona they wanted me to make was a major part of my success. In terms of social stats I am just about to take the final in July and have finally manged to raise my charm to 3 (started late on the sun s-link) which is equal to every other stat I have besides knowledge which is 4. jesus, either your s links are lower than mine or I've somehow wasted a LOT of time

Oh, the one thing I think the S Link system could do without is the increased gains for bringing a same-arcana persona, and just roll that bonus into the normal gains. The expense to summon a Pixie or w/e from the compendium to hit those requirements is marginal for the second half of the games, but having to juggle your free space and go back to the Velvet Room if you forget one for the current month or need to swap one out is loving annoying. It adds nothing to the game but additional tedium.

Happy Blue Cow posted:Is Sojiro's S.Link just incredibly time consuming, in comparison to the other confidants, to raise or am I missing something? Hanging out with a Hierophant Persona only gives 2 points, he doesn't want any gifts, and he never appears in other events. C'mon old man One thing at least: AFAIK you seem to get the same amount of affection with him from making coffee that you do from hanging out, so you can at least get something from hanging out. I'm afraid he's going to end up unfinished on my file, though.

This is after the second dungeon but before the guy confessed, is there something I need to progress to get them to open up, that the game isn't telling me about? For Sun, did you work at the beef bowl shop until he shows up as a customer? I think you have to do it twice.

If nothing else, trying to 100% this game with a guide on your first run is odd because you have to do NG+ to see and do everything in the game, which means you may as well just save the 100% for NG+ where you start with maxed social stats and millions of yen

theblackw0lf posted:Thematically I think this is the strongest Persona game so far. I absolutely agree w/ this, friend and I were just talking today about how it seems like the confidantes are thematically linked by their outsider status and it's the first game in the series where the combat mechanics actually seem to suit the game's theme (like when you're playing well, the bonus turn system gives combat a stylish, musical flow the way playing Bayonetta or something well has, which suits the smooth criminal vibe)

So uh, I guess Network Fusion can give you Personas with a higher base level than your own. What is that actually doing? Randomly pairing me with someone online and fusing the two Persona we put up, giving us both the result?

The Sojiro rank that requires Kindness 5 to initiate gives you Kindness at the end of the cutscene. I'm beginning to wonder if they hosed up some of the stat requirements by accident or something.

Oh hey, (lategame post-palace 6 spoilers) if you gave Goro a good accessory, like say an SP Adhesive 3, it dumps it back into your inventory when he leaves the party. Presumably armor too, though I'm not sure because I ganked his suit for its Evade on Joker and gave him a generic thing I have several of. Yet another instance of this game curiously avoiding doing mean SMT stuff.

it's silly to get in pissing matches about people projecting american social problems onto persona, because a lot of the stuff persona 5 deals with - exploitative collusion between politicians/corporations/police, the social stigma of being accused, internet fame and cybercrime, young people scrambling to breath in a society that seems methodically ordered against them, hikikomori - is very relevant to contemporary americans japan and the US have some important cultural differences, but being wealthy, technophilic, late capitalist, law-and-order obsessed democracies means they also have a lot in common

Re: being stuck on Madarame, can you not knock out 1 more level for Ryuji without wasting your SP and supply of items? Or does Palace 2 not let you run around on the heist day? His having Rampage is a huge help for that battle and I'm pretty sure I was exactly the right level (17) to get it, so you're really only 1 level behind and not 5 or w/e.
