Never once actually paid the late fees at the DVD rental place by the way. Not sure if a spoiler tag is required on this info.

SPOILER: show
That ending was absolutely insane, never would have guessed it would be the ultimate NPC who saved the day. I thought the ending to Catherine was madness but wow, so many twists and reveals. Still think Akechi is a shithead, but I did actually enjoy him being a shithead a lot. That off screen death makes me feel like he's not really dead and will turn up alive in P5Arena Silky Voice Karaoke Dance Party or whatever.

Finished with 5s on everything except Guts, which I must have missed by one Nontondo session. Thought finishing that 3-part book would take me over the finish line on my last section of free time but it wasn't to be. Got Ann, Ryuji, Kawakami, Sojiro, Takemi, Tora, Hifumi, Mishima and The Twins at Rank 10. Felt so bad rejecting Ann and Hifumi, damn video game dating. Makoto locked me out of hangouts for ages because of my lack of charm. Had Yusuke at 9 so just missed his item.

Most importantly: Recruited Mara.


Will be coming back to this in a few months to clean up on NG+, also picked up Persona 3 on the PS3 and will either get Persona 4 or PS2 or maybe look at getting a cheap vita with Golden or something. I'm mostly blind on P3 but think I already know all the big twists in P4 which kind of sucks but I'm sure it's still great regardless. If it wasn't clear enough already, I really really enjoyed this. :heart:

post might have inspired me to download 2-4

How dare you :'(

Destor 11-04-2017 10:11 AM

Also everything in the first spoiled paragraph i agree with. That entire arc had me invested on a personal level

Destor 11-04-2017 11:12 AM

Downloading 3&4 now. Theyll go deep on to my que tho

Ultra Mantis 11-04-2017 06:16 PM

My backlog isn't actually that big right now, though its heavy on RPGs. A lot of them are just newer versions of RPGs I've played before though so I might get into more Persona early 2018 or maybe even December.

Destor 11-04-2017 07:39 PM

I nearlty only play rpgs. I only mix in c list titles and actions games to clear my pallet

Destor 11-04-2017 07:40 PM

Too many triple a titles back to back makes you jaded...

Destor 08-18-2018 08:31 PM

NG+ lets goooooooooo

Ultra Mantis 08-19-2018 11:43 AM

Really want to get back to this :(

It's in my queue, which is on hold until next weekend, but definitely will get back in Shibuya before the end of the year.

The burning question is: Who are you going to date?

Destor 08-19-2018 12:04 PM

Futaba!!!

OssMan 08-19-2018 09:41 PM

I wanna play this

Destor 08-19-2018 10:40 PM

Im not saying this lightly: its one of the best games ever made

Destor 08-19-2018 10:45 PM

Using the dance alt for joker. It plays the p4 battle and victory bgm @mantis

Ultra Mantis 08-22-2018 05:31 AM

Dude, Sojiro is gonna kill you.

Haha yeah I loved using the Vincent costume too because of the Catherine BGM. When I replay I'm tempted to get the P4 and Maybe even P3 costumes. Don't usually bother with superfluous DLC but this game really is that good I don't mind giving them more money.

Ultra Mantis 08-24-2018 03:49 PM

Turned on my PS4 for the first time in over a month and totally forgot I was using the Makoto / Queen theme. Been gobbling up that DLC on the reg.

Destor 08-24-2018 04:43 PM

I bought all the dlc strictly to support the game

Destor 08-24-2018 04:44 PM

Marciless difficulty gives early game enemies debuffs like frozen and shocked. Will be interested in seeing what happens late game

Ultra Mantis 08-24-2018 04:48 PM

Haha going off my experiences with Persona 3 FES and SMT Nocturne I am way too worried for my sanity to play this on Merciless.

Destor 08-24-2018 04:54 PM

Hard for me to gage with ng+...end came might be rough but right now its easy peasy

Ultra Mantis 08-24-2018 05:02 PM

Does it reset you to Lv1 and take your money / items like the other games? Think in P3 you got to keep your MCs equipped gear and your current personas, in Golden it took everything. You always get to keep your compendium, personality stats, shop unlocks and room decorations though I think.

Destor 08-24-2018 05:15 PM

You keep your money and all equipped gear. You keep your compendium as well so while you cant make personas above your level through fusion you can buy them. You also keep social stats and you get the perks of any confidants that were maxed.

Ultra Mantis 08-24-2018 05:25 PM

Oh wow totally overlooked perks carrying over. Kawakami, Tora and Mishima should make things a breeze. Strength should also be easy to get back to MAX pretty much immediately.

Destor 08-24-2018 05:27 PM

You do have to forge a bond with them before they activate tho

Ultra Mantis 08-24-2018 05:29 PM

Makes sense, Tora and Mishima are fairly early on at least. Having Kawakami from the start would be OP.

OssMan 09-03-2018 11:45 AM

Mad addicted to this game

Destor 09-03-2018 12:22 PM

LOOKIN COOL JOKER

Aren't you tired? Let's call it a day and get some sleep.

OssMan 09-05-2018 03:14 PM

Lol

Destor 09-08-2018 12:35 PM

@Mantis

You can get an idol poster from Ann to hang in your room.

Its a poster of Rise

Ultra Mantis 09-08-2018 03:38 PM

Nice! There's a bunch of P4 references on the news channel if you interact with the café TV, might even be an odd Catherine or P3 reference. I only noticed a couple of them because I'd played some P4 Arena years ago so I vaguely knew the main cast but I think Rise, Naoto, the Inaba killer and Junes (maybe even Yosuke?) are all name dropped on there. Pretty sure Rise is on a movie poster in the subway too.

Ultra Mantis 09-09-2018 02:43 PM

Just checked and the poster you get for your room is the same one in the subway.


Destor 09-09-2018 03:23 PM

Rissette <3

Destor 09-09-2018 03:23 PM

I wish joker could hang it above his bed :lol:

Ultra Mantis 09-09-2018 07:23 PM

He probably would if he didn't have to share a bed with mad horny Morgana.

I can't remember which gifts I got in my playthrough, wasn't many. Definitely got one of those little daruma statues from Yusuke because that was the only thing I ever got for my shelves.

Destor 09-09-2018 07:51 PM

Im getting next to no gifts this time since im using the fortune to bypass hangouts that arent rank ups

Ultra Mantis 09-09-2018 08:27 PM

Yeah, absolutely vital for your time management if you're maxing everyone. Do you keep the gifts from your last playthrough or do you start over? I want to put up that totally not suspicious phantom thieves banner as soon as I move in haha.

Is Merciless difficulty still manageable?

Destor 09-09-2018 08:46 PM

No gifts cary over other than the one from your previous lover

Merciless is manageable tho i single mistake and its game over. Bosses can rng you to death. They inflict statuses more often and exploit them for massive damage.

Destor 09-09-2018 10:52 PM

I think by end game it will be an rng nightmare. Im commited though

Destor 09-18-2018 11:52 AM

Only have Empress (6) Strength (8) and the story confidants left. have the entire final month to max Empress. Will do Strength on the final day when I do my end game level grinding and finishing the compendium (78%.)
