This game is great...but good lord does it have some pacing issues. Right before the fourth palace, the game basically steals a week away from you .
Mona, I could out there getting stats.

makoto is the one.
but there are way more 'surprises' and extra mechanics in p5. WAY more.
By HasphatsAnts Go To PostFinally started this tonight. Combat feels more difficult than P4G?its easier... sorta

I wish confidant links carried over to ng+. At least up to lvl 8 so you can pick friend/lover right away.

Do read books carry over into ng+ play throughs?
ng+ carries over social stats and all the registered personas, alongside your money.
so while you have to start the social links again, you can do it much faster since you dont have to worry about being at the right stat

By Kibner Go To PostDo read books carry over into ng+ play throughs?
No. Neither do games played. Have to do them all in one run for trophies
By Retro Go To PostNo. Neither do games played. Have to do them all in one run for trophiesGuess I'll never get platinum, then. Oh well.

Money, Stats, and personas in the velvet room.
It makes the links easier and quicker to lvl up everything
By YungMagus Go To PostMoney, Stats, and personas in the velvet room.is that the best way to go about tackling merciless or whatever extra shit is out there?

Yes,
My rule if thumb is this:
If it has a new game+ then save the master fukkery run for that.
And game time cuts down like a mothafucka, trust me

I made sure to not give a fuck about books and the famicom games and shit and focus on maxing stats and Coops as fast as I could.
Really once you max out Chihaya the fortune teller, maxing out your coops become stupid fast and easy. The only bottleneck is money. Maxing Kawakami and Takemi pretty much means the only thing you need to spend money on is buying Personas and paying off Chihaya. SP is free and Takemi exists to give you Physical/Magic Mirrors and revives. Always make sure to have at least 150,000-200,000円 on you, you will need 100,000 for Chihaya anyway.
I made sure I maxed all my Coop levels so I could spend all my subsequent New Game+ to use every day to go hang out with Makoto and Takemi or whoever I wanted to. Or see all the stupid dialogues with Ryuji.
New Game+ is a joke on risky/merciless too, when you finish the game and go have your entire backlog of persona? Yoshitsune steamroll the entire game.
Like before you start the New Game+ the only persona you need to make is Yoshitsune and maybe Uriel so that Makoto can have a gun that gives her +10 to every stat. Proceed to steam roll through the entire game after.
Like my only complaints about the game is how top heavy the difficulty curve might be to some in the beginning, money being a pain in the ass early on, the unnecessary violence at some parts of the game, and how some characters have inconsistencies.
Like Ryuji is a track star and was the number 1 sprinter before getting injured, why is he drinking Coca Cola with a big ass fucking burger every time you hang out and why is he a super miliota for one segment with the guns, and never mention it again? Anne drinking Calpis 24/7 makes sense because of her metabolism and as a active model, but Ryuji? Dude you're out here on Brandon Roy or Andrew Bynum tier knees, you get tired as fuck anytime you try to run. You telling me you still that skinny drinking Coca Cola and eating burgers and ramen every single day?

By YungMagus Go To PostFinished last night.I thought you finished this with me like 8 months ago.
90 hours 50 minutes.
What a ride yo, what a ride
By shun Go To PostI thought you finished this with me like 8 months ago.
The JP copy got put on the backburner due to life.
I did play it up until the the 3rd dungeon
Is my deadline for Futaba the deadline to do a Medjed palace as well? Cutting it fine if I have to do 2 palaces in that time
By Hitch Go To PostIs my deadline for Futaba the deadline to do a Medjed palace as well? Cutting it fine if I have to do 2 palaces in that timeAs best as I can do with no spoilers,
You never have to do two palaces in a row like you are thinking.
<3 Makoto and Ryuji
The former's dungeon design is brilliant
Not sure if I'm missing out by ignoring Ann and Yusuke's social links. Never use them in my party.

By Hitch Go To Post<3 Makoto and RyujiYou miss out on unlocking a Persona if you don't max them out. Same is true with every confidant link.

Guessed that much by maxing ryuji. Got no need for Ann's combat abilities, but will check if yusuke has any good passives
Seems there's no reward for hanging out with someone after maxing their link, so ryuji is dead to me

About to head to a physics final I didn't study for. Then it's just me and this game for the rest of the day. Planning on beating it even though I'm pretty sure I have at least 10 hours left lol
Ann isn't great early on but she's one of the stronger party members for boss encounters late game. (She gets concentrate/mind charge in the 70s I think)
Yusuke is pretty underwhelming imo but he's like a Ryuji that's more geared towards mobs than bosses.
Ryuji is probably the highest DPS character in the game though for most of it. Only really swapped him out when enemies where null to physical.

Dang. Guess I'm not gonna be able to get through Kamoshida's palace in one go.
Early game SP pains are real.

I'm not all that interested in maxing out the potential of my squad, as I am having people in it I like. So #annstays
Just beat the second palace which felt like a struggle palace compared to kamoshida--which seemed to have more going on with it, but maybe it's recency bias
This game is really good. It's been my go to console game lately. It's insane how much better it is than 4. This game is master class in terms of quality of life decisions.
Is it weird I don't want to pursue Ann because my nigga Morgana is hype? Ima leave dat for morgana.
