I don't think any portable system can run a game like this anyway without severe downgrades so go for it. Also it took [b]YEARS[/b] for portable versions of 3/4.
I'm fighting this stupid piece of shit mementos boss and I don't know what to do. Fighting is also a very... generous term. [sp]He keeps brainjacking my entire team turn 1 with a 100% accuracy rate and it's just over instantly. If anyone survives for it to wear off he just cycles back into another first turn brain jack on everyone.[/sp]
Can you fuse anything or get an accessory with [sp]Resist Brainwash? Apparently Pixie and Kelpie learn it and Arahabaki learns Null Brainwash.[/sp]
I mean, it sounds like a pretty standard opening move for an SMT boss. Kinda like "Death Flies" from Beelzebub which is "instant death unless you null instant death, then it's just almighty damage".

Yeah, the main problem is [sp]he targets whoever dodges brainwashing with nukes and it's kinda hard to survive since the entire rest of my team is going apeshit and he has ways of getting technical crits on them. Then as soon as it's healed or taken care of he just kept reapplying it so the only one that wasn't brainwashed was Joker.[/sp]
I fucking love [sp]the Museum's[/sp] music so much.
Also the [sp]Hawaii and fireworks/culture day festival scenes[/sp] are perfect. I love how they do basically nothing in either. Its so un-Persona.
I've never played a Persona game before but Holy shit this games aesthetic and music and gameplay and just everything about it has me fucking absorbed into it fully.
It genuinely made me want to call in to work just to keep playing it. I'm only about 2 hours in and I love this game.
SUPER SPOILER (end game character reveal)
Unpopular opinion: [sp]Lavenza is the worst Velvet Room member. At least Caroline and Justine could bounce off of each other. Meanwhile Lavenza gets like 1 paragraph of development, and is basically just if Justine let her hair down personality-wise. [/sp]
Also, while cheesy, I'll admit I got a bit choked up when (end game scene) [sp]everyone started cheering for the PTs and the poll rating skyrocketed[/sp]
[QUOTE=Xonax;52078522]Is Persona 5 darker in tone than P3 and P4?
Also should I hold off until a portable version is made or is it worth getting it now?
Wondering cause P3P and P4G ended up as the definitive editions...P3P is debatable tho considering it doesn't have the Answer, but P4G is deff the definitive version of P4.[/QUOTE]
I'd just get it now, I don't see a portable version happening anytime soon unless they can somehow work miracles on the Switch.
If there's one thing that turns me off of a lot of the side Confidants in this game, its that they always start with introducing one "bad faceless npc".
You're talking to your Confidant, and WELP HERE COMES SINGULAR EVIL PERSON TO START PLOT DEVELOPMENT. I wonder if we'll stop singular evil person and help Confidant realize their potential!
There's a lack of subtlety in that department, but I guess it's been spread throughout the past Personas too.
Its why I like (confidant) [sp]the arcade kid[/sp] so much though, cause they're the asshole in their scenario as well. And its not just one asshole.

I'm glad that they kept the best Persona/Demon
Been watching playthroughs of P5 since I can't afford it right now, but hot damn is it something.
I got into Persona since my friends got excited about it, so I went through Persona 4 which was a blast, except a few specific bosses because on the PS2 version, some bosses don't have weaknesses, so you just have to get through by buffing and debuffing.
The playthrough I'm watching is really frustrating, cause the guy seems to be jerking off while people are talking and just clicking X to go through the chat, then has no idea what he's meant to do since he wasn't paying attention.
Also, Captain Kidd's design is the fucking greatest thing I've ever seen.
A fucking ghost pirate riding a ghostship like a skateboard, hot DAMN.

Sorry for advertising, but twitch.tv/killscottkill
100% play through with a dude who's made a ton of Persona guides
Very intelligent, speaks about cool localization things, and is very good about speaking only when necessary.
Just try to avoid the thumbnails on his VODs when you go through them cause I think one or two might have spoilers.

Nice, thanks for this.
Don't care for spoilers much anyway.

Getting the game tomorrow. I played and beat both 3 (FES) and 4 (golden) and I've been waiting on this game for years now, I'm so hyped :dogcited:
So the Reaper is super easy... if you do one little exploit.
Putting it in spoiler tags if anyone wants to find it out for themselves.
[sp]On specific days near the end of the year, there will be a flu season which can sometimes makes monsters in mementos spawn with despair. After 3 turns they commit suicide. The Reaper who should be immune to this, isn't. Great for grinding if you're falling behind, but make sure to run if he doesn't spawn with it. The Reaper will respawn if you run, so just move a few steps away and ambush the Reaper until it does. I can't remember which November days have flu season, but December is 12/8 and 12/9 only.[/sp]
Really disappointed that this game won't be making it over to PC.
I understand the exclusivity deal, but still...

The sales they would make would be amazing, but sadly it's just stuck on Playstation.

Beyond the occasional obscure game no one knows about, MSX ports in the early days, and an ill-fated MMO, Shin Megami Tensei has always been a console-centric franchise sorry to say. And handheld-centric, given how much of the series is on the DS/3DS now.
I'm really disappointed that this game launched without any ingame unlockable costumes.
[QUOTE=Zeos;52082073]I'm really disappointed that this game launched without any ingame unlockable costumes.[/QUOTE]
I would've at least liked to have each person's casual clothes as a costume
Also... is the enemy scaling in (Uh, earlygame dungeon spoiler?) [sp]Mementos supposed to be fucking worthless? I'm in the third area, which doesn't unlock until you're like, level 20 almost, yet all of the enemies in here are like, fucking level 10 and giving me 66 EXP. That's worthless[/sp]
Oh ho BOY
There is nothing more satisfying than four Decarabia appearing while your whole party has baton pass.

I mean I COULD take them out in one hit, but then I wouldn't get three high fives in a row just for doing regular attacks
So something is bothering me about Persona 5.
The game is rated M, and other characters have said fuck, but Ryuji is saying EFFIN'
AND AT ONE POINT HE JUST STRAIGHT UP SAYS FUCK, AND THEN GOES BACK TO SAYING EFFIN' AFTER THAT
WHAT? WHY?
Like some of the personas are nearly naked.

A super important moment happens later in the game, and in a state of shock he says "What the eff"
Really took me out of the moment

Some of the personas are literally cocks
Yeah, first palace enemy spoilers, but I was [I]really[/I] caught off guard when one of the minibosses was just [sp]a straight up penis head complete with horrified reactions from the group and a gross crusty white substance on top and it wasn't even Mara[/sp] :v:

[sp]"Watch out, Joker! It's coming!"[/sp]
I take back what I said about Makoto being best girl, Haru is the only girl for me.
[QUOTE=DJswitch;52077391]Is this game worth the AAA price on launch? I didn't quite get to finish P4 or PQ (in P4's case, it was because I didn't really understand the battle mechanics well and got bored, in PQ's case it was more or less the fact that there wasn't really any good flavor text and characters kind of got condensed down into archetypes rather than being themselves)[/QUOTE]
You can always get the second-hand copy later with half the price if you're not sure or not so hot on Persona. Being a popular game it bound to have a lot of stock left.
P5 battle mechanic is slightly more complex than P4, not sure how will that affect you.
