The Persona 5 Thread

[Met]

Just got Futaba and maxed my first confidant. All social stats are sitting on 4 so I should be good to go on the rest for now, apart from a couple that I've hit the blocks on. Don't have the same need to max charm as I did for raising Kindness from 2 so that will happen when it happens and the rest are Mementos linked, which I want to do in one block so just gonna go do some jobs to get details.

In conclusion: eton mess's happening, I guess.

the rank 5 blocks are:

Knowledge- Hifumi/Star
Guts- Iwai/Hanged Man
Proficiency- Haru/Empress (this block is rank 2 so if you want the best chance of clearing her, get it up early
Kindness- Sojiro/Hierophant
Charm- Makoto/Priestess

Close to the endgame, deep inside what feels like the final dungeon

gooseberry fool the shadows that spawn in cutscene, then gameplay starts with you standing next to them

[Chocolate-Milk]

Halfway through the Sphinx Wakaba fight and MC and Makoto get hit with gooseberry fool despair


this gooseberry fool game man

[Garf]

Items, my man, Hiranya's are thankfully pretty abundant

endgame spoiler

why the gooseberry fool did they get a different voice for Real Igor? Even the jap version has the old voice and he's been dead for years

[Chocolate-Milk]

I haven't seen a single Hiranya since I dumped all of mine for Kaneshiro's boss.

relating to the above spoiler:
SHYET.

[Garf]

RIP Makoto I guess, I wonder if Tae sells a status heal item.

That segment after the puzzle where enemies that cast mudo spells are instantly on alert? That's the best eton mess.

Loved it. FANTASTIC STUFF ATLUS.

[Chocolate-Milk]

Got a chuckle out of the past few class quiz answers, particularly the one about chronostasis.

[Met]

You can't prove he wasn't holding a Dragonball at some point in time...

[Met]

Just stepped into the palace from the intro so I'm less than a month from catching up to the medias res. Should probably have paid more attention for the obvious P4-esque question that's going to show up, but I've narrowed it down to a couple.

I think.

[Garf]

'what do the numbers mean, Joker'

[JenovaPX]

[Met]

Bad end get.

Didn't think that choice was as well done as P3 or 4, but everything around it up to the end of the good path plot dump was strong. Except the part where all the conspirators just sat down and went "HEY! REMEMBER OUR ENTIRE BACKSTORIES? I know you were there and know all this, shut up. Haha, yeah, good times!"

[HassyTheSassy]

behold, the power of my NOT COMPLETELY OPTIMISED BUT WHO CARES IT HITS 99 LUCK WITH BOOSTS FROM ACCESSORIES AND EQUIPMENT money farming persona (also ignore the reflection of my face pls)

anyway in ng+ and i'm about to do the Worst Palace again, j o y

[Garf]

oh baby

[Met]

Still feel bad after getting the Empress, Haru's confidant rank to 9 and turning her down. Everyone else is just "Are we friends? Yes/Something more" but hers is "Are we in a relationship now? Yes/just friends" and she seems very disappointed in the answer </3

[Garf]

wait until you get her rank 10

she aint subtle, you monster

It's the closest you'll get to disappointing a girl for real so cherish this moment.

[Chocolate-Milk]

Why must there be so many top-tier ladies.

3&4 had hands-down winners, but I'm gonna need a goddamn spreadsheet for this one.

3 was all bad.
4 was Chie.
5 is Makoto.

It's an easy choice.

[Chocolate-Milk]

Makoto is an acceptable answer
3 was Mitsuru, if only due to a lack of options.
4 was Yukiko and I'll gooseberry fool fite u

[Met]

Makoto is middle-tier at best.
Yukiko is the correct answer for 4 because Naoto belongs to Kanji and Chie and Rise are actually terrible.

[Chocolate-Milk]

We can all agree that Takemi is best tho right

[Met]

Yes. Yes we can.
