>i have to do everything 100% or i'm playing the game wrong
i hate that people have this content guzzler mentality. i maxed all the links without meaning to when i played royal for the first time. what's the fricking point of options if i get the same experience as everyone else?
I almost did on my first run. I missed the politican by one cause I didn't realize he was one of those that never comes back after a certain date. In hindsight it should have been easy to realize he probably wasn't going to be around after the election shit so he should be a priority but I didn't connect it till after he was gone.
I missed the gamer completely on my first run. Politician is a good s.link though lot of benefits.
Because I don't want to replay the whole game again
When it's a 100+ hour game? Yeah.
The point is to have choices! That make our playthroughs DIFFERENT from one another, because we're DIFFERENT PEOPLE. not just NPCs. Right?
I hate that games can't have choices just because they're long because of people like you!!
Why are you typing like this?
Frick you!
Why do you need to be different?
I bet you didn't go for a bad end and then said that you've completed the game.
>Why do you need to be different?
Because otherwise the choices dont have meaningful consequences?
Back in the day, "choice and consequence" was a pretty big part of RPGs. They required some content to be viewed only by some of the players, but that was okay because it made the world feel more natural and less like an all you can eat buffet of "content".
>Back in the day, "choice and consequence" was a pretty big part of RPGs.
Name one jrpg
I can't really, not one with many. JRPGs, going back to Final Fantasy 4 easy type, are specifically to cater to insecure people with choice paralysis.
As a good example of a big choice though, Tales of Symphonia hard branches with a totally different party member and plot beats after a certain point. Sick shit.
>choices
Except this is a game where there are objectively wrong answers, and that causes you to miss out on things.
Valuable choice would mean that either path has something to offer, which is not the case here
>Except this is a game where there are objectively wrong answers, and that causes you to miss out on things.
What's wrong with that? Why do you need to win at everything, or see everything? Does it hurt your ego? Why can't minor losses or wrong answers just be a part of this story?
They wouldn't put wrong answers in the fricking game to begin with if you were supposed to seduce every single person! Sometimes the wrong answers are the funniest option, and they make your game better, even if it means you don't frick the character at the end of the game, or "win"! Frick!
>what's the fricking point of options if i get the same experience as everyone else?
I haven't played this game, but here are my generic thoughts on this.
Very often, video game choices are
(1) False dichotomies. You must choose A or B; you can't do C (where C is some reasonable thing that someone might do in that moment), you can't defer making the choice by just leaving and coming back later; you can't answer in a vague way or tell someone you'll get back to them; etc.
(2) Irreversible. Obviously there are plenty of irreversible decisions in real life, but most aren't. If you piss someone off you can usually make it up to them, if you're oblivious to flirting you can always reach out later, if you turn down an opportunity there's a reasonable chance of being able to pursue it after all.
(3) Have clear "good" or "bad" outcomes, perhaps even locking you in/out of "true" endings. You aren't choosing between apples and oranges, you're choosing between apples and AIDS.
Given all that, despite loving the idea of branching narratives in theory, in practice I often just pause and look up the "best" answer. The bullshit I described pisses me off more than I enjoy the added immersion of the game conforming to my decisions, and I almost never replay games.
Just leave them to it man, let them frantically follow guides on how to 100% the game while we just play the damn thing and have fun.
they're having fun doing what they're doing. you're just getting off on feeling better than them for doing things a different way, which you have fun doing. don't be a fricking Black person.
homie if you play a game with a guide because you dread the prospect of having to play it again I wonder if you're having fun in the first place.
How do you know that anon's skin color?
I only made it to max with a couple social links in P4 because I didn't know what I was doing, only chose dialogue I thought was funny and didn't take advantage of boosts. By the time I was into P5 I figured out the actual mechanics behind that system and tried getting it right for the fusion boosts.
And you know what? I was having a lot more fun the way I was doing it in P4. It felt like my character was only advancing friendships with the kinds of characters I liked more, sort of like how western RPG's will build your character stats based on how you answer questions at the beginning of the game. Maxing everything is cool for the gameplay perks and getting to see more of the story, but if I ever get around to replaying I think I'll ignore persona boosts and try to roleplay with the dialogue options.
>i maxed all the links without meaning to when i played royal for the first time.
Huh, is it that easy to get all the links complete in 5? Because I just finished 3 and without a guide I don’t think it’s possible to do every link with the time it gives you
in 3 you have a very tight window and it is impossible without a guide. The devs are on record as stating that they didn't think anyone would give a shit about maxing social links.
Yes. 5 is designed for people who get anxiety when they don't 100% games. 3 and 4 need guides to max all links
Not sure if I want to date that ugly reporter or not. Shes basically a roastie
I felt the same way but she grew on me. Hags deserve love too.
Atlus hates Ann and I'm the only one who cares
I think Ohya is cute
Only Haru!
Haru is easily worst girl besides reporter lady. Only real choices are Ann or Kasumi
If you visit Haru on the school roof while you're evading police she says she'll hold off the cops for you. She's the least passive woman in the entire cast.
I think you meant to say Sadayo or Sae.
I am sorry anon. You have a severe case of awful taste
Imagine saying this when Makoto exists
you're right, she is worst girl
Hey isn't that the girl who is shitting on that one pic?
Haru is such a sweet girl
I want to plow her fields if ya know what I mean
I want to put her out of commission if you know what I mean
What I would give to own one of these hats.
No anon, I will not date your bawd
Ive already played p4 and p3
If p5 is supposedly worse, i dont even want to imagine it

Nah I already did that and it's a meme, staying loyal to one girl gives you more events and is more rewarding.
really? The number of events is the same, only the girl changes depending on which one you respond to on the phone
>Futaba
have a nice day now. Before I have to hunt you down.
What's wrong with Futaba?
shes my WIFE
I don't even give a shit tbh it gives you like four scenes in total
if the persona games had erotic game elements as social end game and let you manipulate the girls to date them all or build a harem, it would unironically be the best series ever made. Makoto only as is, with the head canon that im also fricking Kasumi.
I already played P5
I have no desire to play it a second time
It was alright, 8/10
>either play in lockstep with a guide and take away all player agency
>or replay everything with all VN sections that are still time-consuming even while fast-forwarding text
That was the option for both P3 and P4, what should I do for P5R?
Royal brings it to a manageable level as long as you pay attention, most you'd need is a reference sheet for special days to optimize everything.
just play the game with maximum player agency and use the fortune teller to make up for wrong answers during Slinks and hangouts. You'll get all the links without sweating, guide is not even needed.
as a persona 3 fan, the ease of the social elements in persona 5 is downright triggering to me
You don't need a guide to optimize if you're playing Royal, you can max every confidant and then get like a month extra to just dick around. I know because I was maxxed by like November and spent December doing nothing but going to the maid cafe or the arcade.
this is a good point, when we say you'll max it without trying we mean with weeks to spare. I spent the last couple weeks of game time taking Haru to jazz club over and over.
By contrast you'll probably cut it pretty close in vanilla 5 because it takes longer to grind out social stats.
>and spent December doing nothing but going to the maid cafe or the arcade.
You sir are a true gentleman and a scholar.
Anon, only vanilla p3 required a guide.
FES and all versions of p4 were fine.
Go look up an actual guide for FES/P4 and you'll see very, very few free days.
Why would I look at a guide for p4 when I could do it blind with nearly 3 weeks to spare. I was literally drawing it out just for the one fusion forecast close to the deadline.
Sure you did, and I beat Elizabeth in FES with a level 15 Orpheus.
there's no way you can max everyone in golden without having played the game before. you'd have to have pregame knowledge or answer EVERY question right during hangouts or something.
>FES and all versions of p4 were fine.
No they weren't, 4 made it RNG if you were getting two or three notes per SLink even with the appropriate arcana, so your whole blind playthrough would also have to completely reliant of the game actually giving you the points you fricking need.
>4 made it RNG if you were getting two or three notes per SLink even with the appropriate arcana
that's extremely based, wow
Vanilla Persona 3 ruined everything forever. Guidegays will never accept that it's not a necessity.
FES has like 3 days to spare if you do every single thing completely optimally, I don't know how that counts as "fine" to you
If you tell me that you were perfectly able to learn the exact timing needed to catch the beetles for the lake guardian in P4 on your first try, I'm going to call you a fricking liar.
Once I learned that the fortune-teller can give you s.link progress every day things went a lot smoother
From my personal experience, you can still max out the confidants by playing at your own pace as long as you cheat a little by knowing which dialogue options give the most points. Also make sure to bring the appropriate persona when you spend time with the confidants for extra points as well.
>you can still max out the confidants by playing at your own pace as long as you cheat a little by knowing which dialogue options give the most points
Even that's unnecessary since the fortune confidant has an ability which lets you pay for confidant points without spending any time

>You did marry all the children, right???
have a nice day. Ganker belongs to e-girlcons. Drawings are not real.
Maybe back in 2007
That ship has sailed.
marrying children was common practice in the past, so its fine.
Why are you so mean to people who marry children, are you jealous?
I dated Haru in P5 and I will date her again in Royal. I love my wife, huge forehead and cat shit coffee and all.
Femdom by Makoto
What gives with the romance in this game? If I date multiple chicks, I've seen an image of them getting pissed at finding out on Valentine's Day or something?
Can you not truly date multiple girls?
just play the game however you want. why do you want to spoil the game for yourself?
no, you can, because the only consequence is that one scene on valentines day. it's a comedy scene too, so you don't even feel bad. otherwise the other characters do not acknowledge you are in multiple relationships.
dating multiple chicks in persona 4 was way worse because on valentines day you'd break their heart when you had to choose
just a "punishment" cutscene if you have more than one gf during valentine's. (happens the day after, actually). It has no effect on gameplay and it continues like it never happened
Either date them all or don't. You can still max rank all the arcanas either way so theres no gameplay difference
I have literally never had sex or even a date IRL. I'm not pathetic enough to try and relieve my lost youth in a video game.
Frick me I'm almost 25, too old for dating Sims and real dating
Nah, you're severely underrating your patheticness. I'm the same age as you and I've had girlfriends and had sex, and I think Persona 5 and some VNs are fun.
btw no girl will ever want to be around you if you act like a pretentious, pessimistic fricking homosexual all the time.
Both have the best feet and ass in the game
foot gays are braindead morons. Your brain is literally broken into thinking feet are sexy.
Ann Takamaki is bimbo rapemeat for RAPE.

No because I'm waiting for a crack since I don't want to pay full fricking price for a 6 years old PS3 game.
See you in a few months anon
I'm in no rush.
I do hope you guys enjoy yourselves though, and I say this without any irony whatsoever.
Is the switch version meaningfully worse, or does it emulate like shit?
It's fine. Unless you're doing a simultaneous comparison, the most noticeable thing is the finisher portraits. On the other hand, the loading times for the Switch version seem better than the ps4.
imagine not just spending $1 for game pass to play the game
I romanced Haru.
I chose the relationship dialogue option in Makoto's SL10 so that I could get this scene. And so that it is just her being dumped, she doesn't have anyone else for sympathy if I did that with everyone.
I wanted to see Makoto seethe alone.
This scene was so good
not when they have each other
What you think they had an orgy together afterwards?
yes
>sojiro smooths everything out off screen

You can take them on dates in Royal yes.
Nah, all I need is Ryuji's chocolate and Akechi's hate boner
I wish you can date the boys. It would be cool to have some bro love
Yeah why can't I frick the talking cat? Just cause it's not female?? Japan......
I was thinking Ryuji or Yusuke
Why would a homophobic company like Atlus ever let you do that? P2 was an anomaly.
They're so heavily traditionalist that they look down on you for even considering a gaijin woman to be a human being.
They made Vincent of all characters bisexual, at ths point anything is possible.
That team seems pretty far removed from the original vision of Catherine to begin with.
And iirc this new team will take care of all the new Persona games now. And the old team wanted to male Yosuke gay and left almost all the hints in P4 AND added fanservice in the next gamzs.
No, the team who made Full Body are the ones who left p-studio, they're working on Re Fantasy, not persona.
You sure? I've been told this was a project used by the old Persona team to train the new one to game dev.
After P5 the staff that made P5 essentially split in two, the ones that continued to make persona at p-studio and the ones who formed studio zero to work on re fantasy (and they also made catherine full body)
until akechi romance is modded into the pc version i will not play
Why can't i date my homie Ryuji?
i mean, if you don't date anyone else you technically do.
I like that they didn't include any filters in this game
What the heck, but isn't it viewable thru the shit online aspect?

Play persona 2, unironically
Yes.
The japanese won't like a character unless they have the same bug smell
There is an absurd lack of animated makoto webms where she is being used as a prostitute in that club aka her bad ending.
There are a couple but that's not enough and the best of them (by far) only has oral no sex.
First playthrough romanced only Dr Takemi
Second playthrough ploughed them all.
>First playthrough romanced only Dr Takemi
this is me
zero regrets
Is there any disadvantage to romancing a girl that is not a party member?
No. Romance doesn't benefit party members
it benefits my dick.
It was legitimately hilarious that if you stay committed to the first girl you advance s.link to relationship status, most people would end up exclusive with Kawakami
It was pretty hard to turn down Haru though, you break her heart when you friend zone her
no I only romance 1 girl at a time then I get her christmas item which levels her confidant faster for the next playthrough
how do I make sure I don't miss anyone and don't get locked out of romancing them the first playgthrough? I don't wanna play it again after this (already played it at launch and finished it back then, can't remember shit)
if you actually played the game you would know how hard it would be to actually miss a social link
you honestly expect me to remember everything from 2016?
frick off
all I know is I got locked out of romancing one of the girls
? You can't get locked out. You must have misread a girls advances like an autismo
pretty sure you can get locked out from actually dating one
P5Rs social stuff is autopilot tier. You'll have weeks to spare if you have arcana personas and use fortune teller.
can we use cheatengine like this?

Makoto is cute too
I hate this smug b***h and her gross feet so much. Just thinking about her feet makes me want to throw up. Omg so disgusting.
No Sae no buy.
Very late, her plotline and social link only comes up during the bonus content because they were too lazy to integrate her to the rest of the game
Meant for
that's usually how the Judgment arcanas are, isn't it? it's just a link that basically levels itself near the end
In the Tarot, Judgement is also called Aeon and it means Revelation, i.e. Judgement in the grand sense of divine judgement or apocalypse. Ordinary judgement falls under the Justice card, and other cards like Hieeophant and Emperor. So it makes sense that the Judgement arcana is tied to the plot because max judgement basically means max revelation (of the story). Judgement is also the next to last of the Arcana. The last is The World.
I'm seeing Sumire really early on in the game, when do I actually get to have her in my party and romance her?
I'm only dating my wife Makoto. Everyone else is getting friendzoned, with special attention on Kasumi because she's a cute younger sister type.
On my second playthrough, I will also be faithful to my wife Makoto.
On my third playthrough, I will be faithful to my wife Makoto.
On my fourth playthrough, I will be faithful to my wife Makoto.
On my fifth playthrough, I will be faithful to my wife Makoto
I will always be faithful to my wife Makoto.
I will not watch the Romance confidants on youtube or elsewhere because I consider it an infidelity to my wife Makoto.
I just fapped to videos of your wife getting fricked by multiple men a few hours ago.
I am glad you find my wife beautiful, but you only jerk offd to your own cognitive version of her. In reality, she remains pure and untainted by your distorted desires.
>your distorted desires
Sounds like you should invade that anon's Palace
In reality there is no Makoto, she is a work of fiction.
>trusting "Igor"
>your own cognitive version of her
No moron the videos are literally available on the internet for all to see. She's getting fricked by multiple men.
That's literally, unironically, and non-figuratively the perverted Demiurge/Yaldaboath trying to get revenge on her for humiliating him.
Does Royal still just immediately kick you to the title screen if Joker goes down without even letting you rez him?

Yeah, but then I gotta boot up my PS4. I literally just turned off my living room power strip for my living room outside of events.

To be fair, some power strips are very complex pieces of equipment.

i missed the sun covenant on my first playthrough
so i can understand why people google stuff when there are stupid missables
I did a canon-run in vanilla P5 and romanced the neet.
Who did you guys choose for your non-canon romances? Trying to decide who to go for. Maybe Ann?
>thinking Persona games have ''canon'' romances
Braindead
>he doesn't know
ngmi
effin
in my playthrough i simply chose Ann because I like blondes. I only need 1 girl at a time, I am a simple man.
All Persona 5 characters suck.
Agreed
Atlus tries very hard to push one girl and shit on others
To be fair, in any anime or animeish-game, student council prez is objectively best girl by default.
It was the same with Mitsuru in P3.
Not true. Aigis was the favorite. Of course the Japanese would love a literal robot the most.
“Favorite” is an opinion. But “best girl” is objective.
It's something that cannot be denied by how Makoto and Aigis are written.
Considering how Ann is just a total punching bag they despise, even after release
I already played most of it through RPCS3 and stopped sometime during the (final?) dungeon. I already got Best Girl to start calling me Boyfriend... everything after that seems extraneous.
I'll probably still pick it up if it goes on sale for $40 or so. Full price for a game this old is unreasonable.
Thanks for reading my blog.
so does this b***h just keep showing up until you beat the vanilla game? seems like they're really pushing her early despite her arc supposedly being the feature of the new content
she appears here and there. atlus literally could have got her to join during fricking shido, but they're fricking lazy. after you enter the 3rd semester, she becomes the main focus, but for like 3 hours and ends up being wasted.
It's not really about laziness, it's more about maintaining the "purity" of the vanilla story
It's still moronic though but Atlas has a fetish for this shit apparently.
It is moronic, but it was to be expected, like this quote is from an interview back from P3P
>We wanted to make the game feel new, and adding new characters is a critical part of that. But we couldn’t just throw in new characters for no reason – P3 was already a complete work, so adding new characters to the protagonist’s main friend group was out of the question.
Like it's out of the question for them, the compromise with Kasumi is that they added a new playable character but only for the new playable content, like her being playable for Shido was never really an option.
They actually tried to do it with Marie, but people didn't like her, so they dialed back as much as they could and made her as optional as possible so they could quietly discard her if her reception was bad, Something they couldn't do with Marie.
by her i meant Kasumi.
Even Marie is treated with those same boundaries, like how she isn't in any of P4G's new slice of life scenes throughout the year at all, she's only friends with the IT in what is essentially the bubble of her own social link, the main story only starts to acknowledge that once it hits the new content, before swerving back into the main story for the final dungeon, and then back into new content for the epilogue where she's allowed to be with the group again. But she never actually collides with vanilla stuff.
That's still more than Kasumi ever got.
Because Makoto is Atlus's favorite, to an insane degree. Even her stats are fricking rigged as shit
I agree that the way Kasumi was written was very clearly a response to how Marie turned out. But she still got more than Marie did, like she was a full on playable character with everything that comes with that, even if only for a month. Not everything is about friendship and slice of life scenes
>Not everything is about friendship and slice of life scenes
When it comes to story in a Persona game, it does. Let's be realistic anon, people only eat up Kasumi because she is a waifu specifically tailored for the mc.
They still couldn't pretend she doesn't exist whatsoever, with Kasumi, the barebones farewell scene goes the extra mile.
>When it comes to story in a Persona game, it does.
Only P4, P1/2 don't have slice of life at all really and P3 or P5 don't put the same emphasis on those kind of scenes as P4 does, yet you'll see people who started with P4 act like it defines the whole series and that P5 is somehow a worse off game for not treating it like P4, when really P4 is the outlier here.
>Let's be realistic anon, people only eat up Kasumi because she is a waifu specifically tailored for the mc.
True, if you look at the polls that's the only thing that really makes a character popular.
The meta horserace bet shit. Doesn't matter how bland she is. People don't even realize it.
Makoto is pretty much the Marie of P5, where they try to force you to like her
There was nothing forced about Makoto. Her popularity was natural. People liked her because of her autism and her ass.
No. Look at this:
It demonstrates pretty clearly that it's no accident.
Makoto is forced in many many ways. Even when Sumire enters the picture.
so? why does this matter?
I want to be allowed to like other characters, but Atlus just has to shove their fricking waifu down your throat by any means necessary.
Haru even gets sidelined immediately after being introduced just for more Makotowank. Ann just gets shit on the whole time for Makoto's sake. Most of the cast does.
No. You come off like an insane autist.
You can like whatever character you want dumbass.
Not when Atlus shits on any character that isn't their precious favorite.
They changed the order of this scene from the original release, specifically so Makoto would come first.
And Atlus also ships off other characters like Haru, Futaba, Ann, while specifically shielding their precious Makoto from this, for the sake of her "purity".
>And Atlus also ships off other characters
Now this is dumb headcanon.
No it is not anon. Makoto is so pure she doesn't even really interact with other boys much at all. Not until P5S
Futaba is even PURER
Yusuke is purest
Most recently you have this during their official stage production
Ryuji NO
>No it is not anon.
>posts image that he's headcanoning as a pushed ship as evidence
Okay...
Makoto is very carefully shielded from any moments like that. The one and only thing you could even point to is her Ryuji showtime, that's the only point.
You’ve created a wonderful head canon for yourself.
Holy shit you're fricking obsessed with this shit.
nta, but no, you come off as a screeching autist.
>muh Makoto goes first!
It makes absolute perfect fricking sense that the loudmouth b***hy student president would be the first to speak up. If anything it is an improvement that adheres more to character.
>Something they couldn't do with Marie.
They essentially did, she only really appeared in the PQ games in the capacity of a velvet room attendant, her story role was incredibly minor in Ultimax (and her scenes were essentially just an explanation for why she wasn't really taking part in the story) and she doesn't appear in P4D's story at all, she's just a dlc dance. Any of Marie's importance (or even just her being friends with the IT) basically begins and ends with P4G.
Also in the PQ games she basically exists to be bullied, P4G basically has the characters be like "Wow, you're so cool Marie!!" while PQ pokes fun at her quite a bit
She deserves it for being so shit
>P4G basically has the characters be like "Wow, you're so cool Marie!!"
Yea basically what Makoto is the entire time through Persona 5, while the other characters like Morgana, Yusuke, Haru, and especially Ryuji and Ann are useless and just get shit on and they only exist to make precious Makoto look better because she's the MC's pet waifu Queen
It's nothing new. They did the same shit with Marie. Ballet prostitute is slightly less irritating but significantly more of a camera hog if you're not personally invested in another Atlus shitwaifu. The Akechi changes work better because he's not Poochie and it fills in a bit of missing content.

So the new girl only joins you at the end of the game yet they expect you to care about her and even frick her while ignoring all the other hotter b***hes throwing themselves at you all game?
like she matter anyways. like an anon said already, sumire is relevant to revealing maruki's plan. after you know his intentions, she's threw into the trash. it just turns to a joker and akechi's adventures.
Will you guys be okay with being forced to play as a female in persona 6?
Never gonna happen
I'm fine with a female protagonist, I just don't want two protagonists like P3P. The games are long enough and not that replayable, so I prefer that they just do one playthrough and put it all into that instead of having two slightly different ones like in P3P. I'd also prefer the protagonists in Persona to be more defined characters in general and move away from being trying to be self-inserts, and just having one protagonist would work better for that too. I still expect Persona 6 to have a self insert male protagonist in any case though.

i take the challenge for she
Cucking that annoying cat is so satisfying. I don't even like Ann all that much but I'll frick her just to watch that little shit cry himself to sleep.
I despise Ann and I'm not wasting time on her. Does Morgana have any special lines if you frick her though?
He has a few reactions if I remember correctly.
I played Strikers first for some reason and gravitated towards Ann simply because I like catsuits, and ended up maining her because of her crowd control and OP machine gun.
When I played P5 she was the first female to show up so I figured "why not?".
I did like Haru but it was too late by then since she only shows up at the fricking endgame.
Maybe in another life.
Kawakami and Tae were nice too but they're such obvious fetish bait that I wasn't able to take them seriously.
in p5, anne is the worst of the gang. her fricking skills are inferior to everyone. even her ultimate persona is a worthless upgrade. hardly used her.
That's not really true, she's a good magic nuke, like Ryuji/Makoto/Anne is pretty much the optimal team
Ann is one of the best party members because she learns concentrate
Meanwhile Makoto gets this
and is the healer and can learn Concentrate. Rigged as frick in favor or their waifu.
Not really a favorable one compared to the stuff he got with Makoto. She has no dialogue at all in the new P5R scenes. And they removed this one
I fricking hate makoto and sumire so much
>I fricking hate makoto
Said no one ever.
I do too. Makoto more because she's an active leech on the rest of the cast. But then you have to hate every other character as well, because they're essentially just accessories to her to stand around and make perfect Queen Makoto look better
the patient are rewarded with best girl
Sumire!

I hit the true final month on ps4 then fell off, haven't touched it in 2 years.
Atlus hates her
>go to the beach
Pretty much a metaphor for raw-fricking somebody.
Highly potentialy anally.
Atlus gave Ann and joker their own 2d animated cutscene
I miss the shitposting about fast-forwards to Sae making outrageous accusations
>"So what I got a girl to jump off a building and beat up whoever I call out, who the frick would even listen to the three of you?"
Couldn't either of you just wiretap the conversation through your phone and upload it if the expulsion stake isn't there?
> if the expulsion stake isn't there?
Even if it is, it's quite easy to upload those kinds of things anonymously.

should I be using a walkthrough on my first run to get all the confidants?
I’m early in the game and didn’t even know you can do that. I thought it would be more like a VN where you get locked into routes. Surely there’s something you get locked out of by doing this?
I might but I heard Royal gives you a bunch of easy mode personas from the start and has shitty extra content that makes the original better. Might just play the original on my PS3 teebeehaych
>Joker and Morgana make a secret promise not to tell the gang about another persona user and palace at their school because they'd have to change the base game
this is literally the worst writing in any of the nupersona games. It's just totally nonsensical
I blame the animated cutscenes. Atlus didn't want to go back and have to animate Sumire's appearance into them, so we got the laziest implementation of her. It doesn't even make sense that she has a third stage Persona, because you won't even have a chance to use her second stage.
This series generates so much money, how the frick is base game alterations out of scope? Like what the frick
It's not about budget, see
It just goes too far in adjust the main game for them
It hurts the game way more for morgana and joker to keep weird secrets though
Yeah, but clearly they draw their boundaries about changing the main games content, whenever there's weirdness like that it's because it would be crossing those boundaries if it was anything more, it's not really about budget like people tend to say, it's just autism.
Just started playing this for the first time, who's best girl? Only real opinion I have on the girls I've met so far is that I don't like Ann's stupid huge pigtails.
Hifumi
Haru, personally, but you can frick nearly every female so you should find something that caters to you
The one true romance.
Ann scenes removed. They despise Ann
She's still the one who greets him back first.
They removed that scene. They changed this one
They replaced Ann in this scene
Ann is oddly the only one without dialogue in this scene
>They removed that scene.
The scene that I replied to is the vanilla one, not the Royal one?
It's still in the game dumbass, how many times have I had to tell you this?
>You are dating every girl right?
I never do that on the first playthrough.
Igor said early on in Kamoshida's dungeon about bonus battles but I just met Yusuke and I still don't see the option. Is it bugged?
>been loyal haru boy since release
>Worship her in P5S and Dancing as well

>90 dollars on Steam for a game thats 6 years old.
I was excited for it to come to PC but come on.
Atlus hates Ann
I love Makoto
I don't CARE about bonding with dudes.
I only CARE about going out with women.
The game is the easiest persona anyway, I don't need every helps I can get.
question about controller configs - why does P5R require me to have this button turned on in order for the game to register my DS4 inputs while P4G doesn't? P4G with a DS4 works without DS4Windows or anything, the light bar doesn't even light up while you're playing the game with the controller.
Does it run at 4K on Xbox Series X? I have it on PC too, but I wanna save some HDD space.
crack doko?
Game Pass
Denuvo.
One single person cracking it.
500 dollars to crack games by request if they don't wanna do it themselves.
SMT Nocturne Remaster, https://www.google.com/search?q=how+many+days+has+it+been+since+20+May%2C+2021, still uncracked.
Those are the highlights.
Just use the gamepass with the argentinian peso Black person
I don't have money.
>P5 is blocked in my region
>Microsoft shit is blocked in my region
I bought new Rimworld DLC instead. Sorry, Black person, I don't support homosexuals.
Move out of Zimbabwe then. Microsoft and Altus don’t accept goats as payment.
>Buying DLC
>2022
Just use the creamapi with the clean files you moron lmao
Denuvo is coming for that too. Not in this game. But it's coming for DLC
I support based devs.
>creamapi
For what purpose moronbro? You can download rimword for free. Why would you buy game to pirate DLC in the first place when you can pirate everything?
Why buy a game on sale when you could pirate it or buy it at full price, hmm?
>i live in a country so bad companies don't want my money
i'm sorry
I don't know if you can call microsoft a bad company.
esl
Nah. It was fine before Ukraine. Just annoying western virtue signaling.
>buying dlc from tynan who literally is a homosexual
please have a nice day homosexual
Who is the best girl and why is it Ann?
P5 is fricking bullshit because it never actually reveals if this is or is not cabbage.
Kasumi was just as forced and even more boring than Marie, she's also playable for a grand total of 1 hour
It's like 10 hours
Not at all man, you can rush the Maruki dungeon for way less than that.
You can also speedrun the game in like 15 hours, that doesn't make it 15 hour game, that just means its a fricking speedrun
You're fricking stupid dude, 15 hours my gigantic balls. She's playable for 5 hours if I'm being generous, it's not even a particularly long dungeon and by that point you're a steamroller even without speed running anything you colossal homosexual.
>You're fricking stupid dude, 15 hours my gigantic balls.
I didn't say that
Is there a guide that just tells me what the important things to tackle are with confidants and other missables? I'm only seeing guides that assume you played the original and know what the frick every system is
Always prioritize whoever is ready for a rank up as a rule of the thumb, never do dates with someone who won't rank up because you're wasting a day you could have grinded a stat on, prioritize the Fortune Teller confidant and the Teacher so you can both do extra shit and rank up confidants without actually meeting them
Also the politician ranks up guaranteed every sunday so watch out for that and he will be outside the station at some point so trigger his confidant.
Yes unless you're a casual.
Thanks anon!
It's a jrpg so it's casual by default
Do I have to max everything?
No, you can just go NG+ if you care about completion.
How is the Söywtch version?
I played P5 in PS3 but never finished it and my save is corrupted, so I thought about getting this now and properly finish it.
>Söywtch
Did you giggle to yourself like a little homosexual when you typed that moronic shit?
Your moronic ass spelling doesn’t even make sense you illiterate b***h.
>100-hour VN
>Can't date Ryuji
Dropped.
Persona 5
>$60
or
Resident Evil Remakes 2 & 3, RE7 and Village Bundle?
>$50
If you never played P5, do that, since you get more play hours out of it, so more bang for your buck.
More playtime is a con these days
RE2&3 are on sale often. If RE7 and 8 are the new gold versions or whatever theyre called its a good deal but otherwise wait for those to come out and get those on sale too.
The bundle.
>gets outcastes by his family and community and thrown to other place
>immediately found true friends, lovers, and eternal companions just by existing
Why does this never happen to me. How do I become Joker?
Failed normalgays deserve no sympathy. God knows.
This is why I stopped playing Persona 3. The drive to minmax is too strong. I keep buying all the Persona games and I don’t play them because of the anxiety. It’s only this series that does this to me.
You should try P5R, it's a lot more manageable, like you can feasibly max everything and you don't need a guide
Oh wow, would you look who the first speaker is again?
In Persona 5 Memento Mission, all of the girls got a cover with Joker EXCEPT for Ann, following the pattern of the P5S ferris wheel scene
lol, imagine this anon utterly seething everytime Makoto is on screen. hahahahaha
Burst out laughing during the White Day event when you're dating multiple girls and get a call from your Valentines date in the middle of the scene
>have to
Absolutely not.
How autistic do you have to be to think (and word it) this way?
Someone post "rejecting everyone" scene in P4G. I remember Risa's reaction was too brutal
>rejecting Rise
who would do this
Someone not desperate. How can you not be annoyed with how heavily she slobs your nuts?
Japs and otaku get off on hurting girls like Rise or Haru or Yukari.
It's a fetish thing and it makes them feel powerful to be able to tear someone down like that
It's just BRO ending. Your reject thots just to stay with Yosuke.
No, i'm friendzoning everyone.
>picking the option that minimizes intergroup strife and ill will
A true leader
All I need is Anne.
Atlus hates her
I love her.
Best bimbo
Yes to all three.
bawd
Atlus agrees with Kamoshida. See Wonder Egg Priority and CSM Pt2 and SMTV. That's how all Japs really feel about the issue.
Based Ann enjoyer

> JULIA
why
Bros is this game worth buying? How will I know if I will like it?
I've played life is strange and found those type of games to be alright.
It's a lot busier than life is strange, but you'd probably enjoy it anyway.
Ryuji feels like a completely different character in JP. I only ever watched P5 and everyone only plays in English so listening to his Japanese voice makes him feel way different
FOR REAL?
That's because Miyano was a terrible casting choice. He can't do yankee and he can barely do goof, and those are Ryuji's only settings.
What's wrong with the performance? It's definitely better than the dub
It's completely unsuited for the character?
>better than the dub
lol no, that's like the one exception
NTA but I couldn't disagree with you more. I think it works great.
I really disagree. Did you expect something even more exaggerated?
Just a reminder that I want to rape Ann

What catchphrases would a talking Ann Takamaki barbie say?
royal should have been a patch
im not playing 100 hours again for a bit of new content
> Start playing
> Decent chunks of dialogue, mostly on TV/intercom, don't have subtitles, even if they're the focus of the scene
I get the gist of it anyway but it's a little weird that such a popular series has such barebones subtitles during cutscenes.
why is merciless so easy? Aside the one shot every so often when the enemies are smart enough to target joker, I'm steam rolling through this game.
Did you miss the part where it said it boosted your critical/weakness damage x3? And even more so if you baton pass?
no I saw that but I thought the enemies would have massive HP pools to compensate. If you hit them with a weakness and baton pass they're made of glass
Health pools are untouched by difficulty modes. Only damage taken and received as well money/exp. Funnily Merciless used to give you less money and exp but Royal instead increased both by 20%.
I turned it down to hard as soon as I couldn't recruit any other demons because they were getting one-shot. I meant to do the Kamoshida fight on merciless, but I forgot to change the toggle. even hard was incredibly straightforward because Obariyon with Rakunda trivialized it.
The Kamoshida story made me realize how Kamoshida would not have lived very long in America.
Some kid would've shot him dead.
>I AM THE KING OF THIS SCHOOL
>I'm afraid my AR disagrees coach
>punishing students with insane training
>coach taking advantage of female students
>school administration turning a blind eye until some shit literally turns up on video, and then plays dumb and condemns the coach
>implying that kind of shit hasn’t happened tons of times in America at high schools known for successful sports programs (football in particular)
Tell me you’re not American without actually telling me.
Not that anon, but while it DOES happen, it's not generally that long-lived when the perpetrator is being THAT transparent about it.
It's kind of shocking that NO ONE had uploaded footage/images of that shit all over the web before now.
just suck it up for a bit and you can ride the coattails of the volleyball team
Atlus agrees with Kamoshida
When I beat Persona 5 for the first time at 150 hours clocked I had a weird since of depression hit me. I realized I would never have close friends like this in real life. I would never go on adventures and get stronger/better. I know I'm a fricking homosexual for posting this but it's true.
4 was worse for that tbh
I'll admit that I played 5 first and then went back for 4 so I didn't have quite the same reaction but i know what you mean.
i was sad and in a mood for a few days after the first play through
I cried at it
like this anon
it wasn't the same for me. I think the first one you play hits you the hardest and I played p4, p5 then p3
I played P4G then P3P then 5
this is the one that hurts the most, no idea how could anyone think otherwise
Can someone post an image of the city but during a day that is sunny? I can't tell if my monitor is just really dark or it is just because the beginning of the game is overcast.
reminder that Kamoshida did nothing wrong
there's barely any porn of him breaking in and breeding Ann despite all the setup for it so clearly he did something wrong
there are a few doujins of him with Ann
>Have to
But I want to.
Experiencing all content is not the same as enjoying all content. Just dated 4chins girl. Her stupid furry reindeer outfit was cringe but it felt more real since she was the only one.
I love Futaba and Sumire so much bros
Don't know how people like Makoto tbh. She seems like the plainest girl of the entire cast and she doesn't really have stand out moments. I liked Naoto in 4 and could not stand Makoto in 5.
I played it and thought it was the most bloated game I played. Dropped at the last dungeon.
>Dropped at the last dungeon.
kek I rate this 5 out of 10
I only need one.
Playing through the game for the first time, a bit past the first palace. GOD, please tell me I can romance this sexy choker wearing goth girl doctor? I'll gladly be her little test subject guinea pig, she can do whatever she wants to me.
Yes but she only does anal.
You can romance literally every single woman you form a bond with. It's a horny game.
Have fun anon.
Don't they all dump you come valentine's Day?
No, you get a wacky scene where they crowd around you and then it doesn't bring up your relationships for the rest of the game
5 years ago when I first played I went for Mokoto, but alas, I'm an Ann gay now
>moved from class rep subtype girl to the turbo bimbo subtype girl
I see you only work in extremes.
Atlus hated her
Atlus only works in extremes
Atlus is gay
Nazi Ann best Ann
>bloodtype autism
do they really
Yes. It's in the character bios. I would say it's what a lot of anime shit ends up being based on
basically the Japanese's version of zodiac/birthsign autism
better late to see the light than never, anon
Same. I did the Hawaii date with Makoto, but ended up choosing Ann in the end. I don't really like Persona anymore though
>Name your organization
Oh no, I suck at these
Most people who aren't new to jrpgs already had to do that like 50 times by now and have a default one they use 99% of the time. Doubly so if you're an etrian odyssey player.
It never even comes up. Your group is the phantom thieves the whole time
Just keep them all at Rank 8 and then only go to 9+ near the final days possible, followed by savescumming to see the others.
>can date 3 hags
>0 datable dicky
>meanwhile P3 femc was fricking 10 yo boy
It's not fair, dickybros..
You get Futaba as a consolation prize anon
You can date the twins though
>enter the student council's backdoor in save 1
>do illegal things with Kawakami and Takemi in NG+
Is it just me or is there no point in negotiating with enemies if you've already got that persona? You get experience, items and money just by defeating them but only one of the three if you negotiate.
in base p5 at least you could get an ability to talk way more money out of them
This story isn't doing a very god job at making me hate this dude so far. He just comes off as a little egotistical and somewhat creepy but I've had way worse teachers than this dude. He better flat out rape someone for me to change my mind.
thats what he does
and no i dont care if it spoils your playthrough
ann doesnt put out so he takes out on her friend who then tries to kill herself
He did nothing wrong
Fricking hated that game
Atlus agrees with him, that's why
God I can't wait for the mods to be made for this game
Why is there so much western Persona porn?
gaijin asians go insane for "IM LITERALLY JAPANESE" sims
Being Japanese sounds awful. Fricking work 23 hours a day and then on the last hour you're forced to go to a business happy hour that everyone will curse your ancestors and murder your family if you don't go.
