What went so unfathomably right?
What went so unfathomably right?
Everything
Not even as good as 4.
literally everything from the title screen to the credits
objectively wrong
It let me have the friends i never had irl
a stunning amount of effort wasted on something nearly unplayable because of abysmal pacing
everything
Right
>Improvements to the Combat System
>Confidants unlock abilities and new things to toy with
>All the Velvet Room upgrades
>Tokyo
>Dat Soundtrack
>Voice work was alright too
>Actual fucking dungeons
>Tartarus 2: Tartarus Harder for the P3 fans
>Yusuke
>Mementos idle chat
>All the optional hang outs
>That final boss
Wrong
>EFF
>Nobody shuts the fuck up during dungeons
>Seriously just let me do the thing god damn
>IT'S SCARY HOW GOOD I AM
>Akechi
>That final stretch where they remembered there was supposed to be a plot after the twist
>Mishima getting constantly dunked on during the optional hang outs
a lot, I haven't had a game suck me in so much since I was in my early teens
I woke up to play it, whereas usually I just shitpost on Sup Forums for 4 hours or so
This. What a disappointment.
Normalfag appeal
Can't believe I let you losers convince me this shit would be fun.
I really hope Sup Forums is not the only one complaining about these things and atlus will not make same mistakes again just because game sold well
>ryuji literally gets his leg broken by the teacher
>ryuji still has to investigate wether or not the rumors of the teacher being physical is real
The writing didn’t get it right, it seems
Also Hifumi.
It didn't deviate too far from Persona 4's formula, but it improved a bunch of its features and made it much more user friendly and polished. It's honestly probably the most polished game I've ever played.
They were looking for proof that he was torturing everybody, not just Ryuji, because nobody gave a fuck about what happened to Ryuji.
Pacing—the plebeian critique!
He's kind of right though. Haru and Morgana get their arcs at the same time, after the reveal everything happens at once, Akechi gets dropped from the plot because of everything else happening at the time, and then the game ends. It feels like the game could've used another month to flesh somethings out.
Oh and Yusuke stops being relevant too.
Came here to post this.
It was better than 4, it wasn't as good as 3.
>persona 4 with worse characters, boring gameplay and a fuckin' sweet HUD
I watched a Let's Play and don't feel like I missed anything by not playing the game. It's mediocre at best.
Should've been a party member instead of forehead girl.
She was originally going to replace Makoto which would've been preferable.
Baton passing to string together attacks and get all out attacks is so much fun
No she wasn't, makoto was designed first, and when they were designing characters they decided that there wasn't much place for hifumi so they made her a confidant.
This fucking guy
>I watched a Let's Play
I wanna play through again to see if I can do a rank 10 all confidants run but i dunno if I can commit to another 100 hour long playthrough.
What stuff do you actually keep between playthroughs anyway
Doesn't matter if she was designed first, you were originally going to live with Sae and Makoto with Hifumi being a phantom thief.
>Originally, however, Hifumi was planned to be involved in the game’s main scenario, eventually becoming a Phantom Thief herself as part of the main party. In the end, she was changed to just be a Confidant character, because the main scenario was already long at that point and that it would make it even longer.
Wasn't it told that it was self-defense from the teacher?
I know you keep all the gifts you get at the end of the game, but I don't remember if your compendium carries over as well.
>Makoto was designed first
Really? That would explain a lot.
Even though she gets the most hate from contrarians, that would explain a lot. She was probably the most complex and down to earth from all girls that were mostly just walking traits.
The girls. Namely, Ann.
Fuck. I copied the same sentence twice.
I wish they actually changed the normal battle theme, rather than stay the same the whole time. Same with velvet room. They did it before, so they have no real excuse for not doing it in a higher budget game.
They told Connor to fuck off with the translation meme.
They did, but only if you used the costumes.
You surely meant unphantomably right, OP?
last suprise was great though
Procure dlcs, goy.
P2, Raidou and If... have fantastic combat themes.
fpbp
Best confidant.
Here is your concept stage "Hifumi". She would have been a totally different character.
Congrats on failing to contradict anything I said.
horrifying
nothing
>dungeons are too simple and handhold you the entire way through
>repetitive social-links
>akechi
>party member say there line over until you wanna kill yourself
>le ebin god that came out of nowhere controlling everything
Shogi is just chess for autists.
That last point is SMT in a nutshell though.
There will always be that one fucker.
This, at least it wasn't a gas station attendant.
Agreed
>chess for autists.
Redundant
>Source: My smelly asshole
Wow rude.
you take that shit back right now
I fucking hate this stupid cat
I thought Haru was the most sane one. Sure she watched bad kids' shows but those didn't define her in real world.
...
I didn't try to contradict anything, but concept stage Hifumi and Confidant Hifumi are two totally different characters.
No.
Not much. Really dumb story.
Mona is the best mascot character in the series. This is a fact.
I never said otherwise just that Hifumi was at one point going to be a Phantom Thief which we know is true.
I was hyped as fuck for p5 to came out for years and got it day 1 only to drop it within a few weeks without completing it and never pick it back up. I've played and loved every other Persona title and tons of SMT games but for some reason this one just bored the hell out of me, anyone else have this happen?
The framing that you were actually in an interrogation room was fucking cliche, and a fucking pace breaker because I had to talk to makoto's cunt sister every single fucking time I made a friend.
Fuck that whole part of the game.
I played it in three 40 hour binges and quit for months between each session. Just finished it this week.
The game amazing but I wouldn't recommed it to anyone.
I mean, the gameplay was good and the story was decent, but it let me down a lot
>hardly expands on mechanics from previous games in terms of social links outside of some bonuses
>combat is stupid easy to exploit and nothing even remotely challenges you by endgame
>lucrative overpriced costume dlc
>characters are hit-and-miss in terms of memorability and usefulness
I liked the game a lot, don't get me wrong, but it was by no means a 10/10. The hype blinded me on my first playthrough, and after that it was sort of just good.
I didn't know about that beforehand, but now that I do I'm not even surprised. God damn it would it have killed them to add a few more tracks to a 60 dollar game? At the very least one more battle track since you'll be doing it a lot.
Just started Persona 5. What do I need to know about story? Is there a backstory I can read? Why was I in a cage in my dream?
Teddie knew how to party, and how to actually hit on girls, even though he failed in story, with his looks he could've said anything and gotten laid.
Morgana getting depressed and running off is more or less teddie 2.0, the mascot should've never ran away, his whole "oh I'm so fucking useless" shit was unnecessary, fuck him and his stupid side story.
And I never said she wasn't.
You don't need to know anything, just play the game. Everything will be explained in due time.
Compared to who? Teddie? At least he stayed loyal and didn't try to fuck everyone over. Aigis is the best, if you consider her a mascot.
Honestly I should just take a few nights or a weekend to do that, I stopped in the middle of the space dungeon though so getting back into it will be a bitch
Thoughts on the title screen?
youtube.com
it was fun ticking people off as you met and recruited them.
Jazzy music too
I played P4G in train to university and the mobile did help enormously.
Sitting down in front of big screen is such commitment but at least the binge sessions helped me finish 4 other games from my backlog on the side.
Everybody hated Ann on release, but now everybody loves her
Did they? I hardly followed the game pre release. Also I wouldn't say everybody loves her. She's still rather unpopular.
So it's perfect for Hifumi then
Ryuji is a bro, Morgana a shit
Because she's a slut.
Go to bed, Ryuji.
She's not but you'll continue to spout your memes anyway.
Was Ann in lesbians with Shiho
Atlus loves her
youtube.com
>memes
>People defending Teddie
>posting something that's explicitly not Ann
Step it up.
That is a "shadow" version of Ann created from Kamoshida's cognition, not the real Ann. Again, you're just a brainless, meme spouting retard and this is the last (you) you're gonna get from me.
>Persona 5 1 year Anniversary DLC leaked
>FeMC route confirmed
>Hifumi is the FeMC
Not arguments.
>we want to make a vn instead of a good dungeon crawler
Why even SL exist? You could do the bond mechanic a lot better.
Dungeons were fun but i am gonna confess , i skipped every SL cutscene because how boring they were. Is like those are design for your average virgin/self insert.
The main story was poor as fuck after Kamoshida. They blowd their load too quick.
I love this.
>The main story was poor as fuck after Kamoshida.
Madarame*
Madarame
yeah , i can accept that.
After that everything is boring , has no weight
I want to bully Makoto-chan
Agreed, the less personal the targets got in relation to the actual PTs themselves the less I got invested in the story, I thought the ending was great though mostly the game just lulled about from Kaneshiro up to Shido.
