Persona 5 Official Thread

You can romance all the girls at the same time.

Also didn't realize the costume pack gave you accessories.

+15% Xp and +15% money

Yeah, the P3 costume DLC gives you an armband (9x) that gives you 15% money and P4 DLC glasses is the exp one. Only the one wearing the glasses gets the exp boost, money boost doesn't stack no matter how many people equip them.

Hmmm kind of disappointed with the continuity issues of the romances ... The way the dialogue/cutscenes play out the game/other characters dont really acknowledge who you decide to waifu up.

I cucked Morgana by getting with Ann, but nobody has made any comment regarding it lol. Kind of surprising for a game with so many nice details to overlook this.


Kind of ragrat not romancing Makoto though.

they acknowledge it in p4g, but in p4g you could only romance one girl. like if u chose another girl to do something with u and u already had a gf, ur gf would be like wtf!!!

i think in p5 you can romance everyone, no idea.

[YourIHero]

I'm just chilling looking for some dude in the school and I see Makoto running around like a maniac while reading a book. Wtf LMAO

[2RDEYE]

man can't decide which confidants i want to focus on...some of them seem really interesting, but you can only focus on so many

[bongowongo]

Raise the doctor and temperance when you get her ... Very useful. I ignored Ryuji for the longest time lol

Not falling for that chit again ... Trying to do that in Witcher 3 made geralt fa lol, learned my lesson.

There are multiple options in P5 .. But maybe they acknowledge it later or something because I pretty much made a big bee-line for Ann to raise her level, but there were a couple cutscenes where my character and ann were acting like a couple and then right after that on the same day they're all having a convo about dating and how everyone is single ... unless it's some kind of secret relationship then I guess it kinda makes sense why it feels disjointed, but it was just weird.

[2RDEYE]

got to the part where sojiro talks about futaba..... feels

man i hope i get lots of time to work on confidants. so many i want to follow through. i know ryuiji i want to do since he reminds me of my actual friend as a teen.

Mishima is such a beta, ho lee fuk

Just finished the chp 2 dungeon and she's stalking me now too, I think you can hear the extra footsteps and when you talk to her she's just like "what a coincidence?"

Just unlocked S.L 5 for the Death Arcana so now I have access to the SP Regen accessories, what does S.L lvl 7 do? Just give a discount?

Yea cuts prices in half.

Didnt even know about the SP acc. until i saw it in this thread a few days back. Theyre a huge help obviously

THAT scene with him and Ryuji was hilarious.

[tnel00]

This game is proof that turn based battle systems still work (biggest complaint with the FF series was it abandoning them)

[enfieldvball]

What VAs are the majority of you guys playing with? I heard snippets of the English VA but they don't sound nearly as good as the original VA nor do they seem as good as the P3/P4 dub which were both top-tier.

I feel like Morgana would be super annoying in the English Dub in comparison to the original.

English.



The voice overs are actually great to be honest, I have no problem with it. Morgana isnt so annoying, he's a little white knight cuck but the VA does a great job with him imo.

english. persona and tales dubs are EXCELLENT. p5's english dub is just as good as p4's if not better.

[2Valhalla]

Makoto best girl.

Also the Tokyo aspect is perfect. Like, Anywhere I go to it's legit a 1:1 representation of its real life counterpart and almost all the locations in game are actual places that I've been to really makes this something special.

I prefer playing games dubbed. P5's dub is pretty good. It's up to par with P4G, IMO.

Makoto best girl.

Will probably give the English Dub a run during NG+
Also, going to get the P3 DLC because the battle theme is too hnghhhh

Just finished 6/11 and the 1st school trip:

Spoiler!

Is it me or is the introduction to Goro exactly teh same as Naoto? Also, I've seen mentions of Naoto and Rise so far from P4, too bad we probably won't get cameos though.

[Brymc]

Makoto best girl.

Have to agree but a lot of these characters are so well done i find myself wanting to help everyone/learn more about them.

Also Yusuke brings the lulz, love the dude.... no homo

[Phesper]

Not reading the thrad to avoid spoilers, but anyone else playing on Hard?

Idk if I'm going to make it through the whole game this way. It seems the difficulty increase is just enemies dealing more damage per hit. Sucks to game over on a single attack against Joker.

No spoilers from me so feel free to read below.

Persona 5 is my first persona and I started on Hard. If you are willing to die more than a hand full of times its worth it. Im experienced in games so I only died a couple times to mobs and a bunch to bosses. But it gets easier and its very rewarding.

planning on gf'ing makoto too. but i haven't met the other two girls yet. hifumi togo seems like my second choice so far. her "nerdy" talk is awesome.

[tnel00]

Why is everyone gf'ing Makoto? (I am too)

Hifumi apparently was originally planned to be a party member but got cut at the end.

[enfieldvball]

Why is everyone gf'ing Makoto? (I am too)

Not that far yet but as far as story/plot goes her s.link feels canon?

Also, anyone else think the game does a good job in making you hate your party before they actually join?:

Spoiler!

Ann for example, foreign student who is a model that doesn't stick up for themselves and doesn't do anything to consolidate their best friend, Shiho, ultimately resulting in her attempting to commit suicide.

Yusuke clearly knows Madarame is stealing his pupils works (as well as his own) does nothing about it, and the first time you bring him evidence/proof he is still in denial about it, it's like c'mon man?

Makoto, who is always butting and listening into your conversations though she is clearly being misguided by her position as S. council and the Principals motives.

[Searching4Truth]

Got accustomed to hard mode where it's like my new normal mode now.

Makoto is indeed best girl. Her VA is great.

Just bought this, going to be playing after work tonight. Any tips or anything I should know before starting?

Take your time

Save often - keep multiple saves

The game starts out really slow but after 6 hours it opens up and everything starts to click together so dont give up on it.

Play with English voice-overs

Remember to tell your parents, gf/bf (*******), friends that you love them because they wont see for a while.

Thanks brah. I'll rep you when I'm off spread.

Keep the spell tarunda around in case something hits way too hard. Ann has it so it's a good idea to keep her around.

Never just go to sleep, only if the cat forces you. Dungeons take at least 3 days to complete. I would try to complete them the first 3 days they become available if you can.

Death confidant gives you discounts on healing items so itll make dungeons easier.

SP in the early game is pretty important, try using healing items instead of spells to save some.

[Searching4Truth]

Encountered some kind of bug . Hours are the same, but I'm playing a bunch of events again. There wasn't any deadline I was dealing with either. Ah well...

My personas are current, none of the old ones. Wtf happened?

Most useful confidants IMO have been Death, Temperance, Star, Sun, and Moon.
