Persona 5 |OT| Resets In The Desert
- Thread starter BRSxIgnition
- Start date
A lot of games will change text language depending on the language of your system (some JP games localized don't do that but most western do) The game is currently 55% off on US PSN (if my 20% discount coupon works then even better) and not only Jp games usually are ￥7.000 ~ ￥9.000 they never get a price drop and neither go on sale.
After some research it does seem Atlus games specifically aren't multi language quite a shame.

Curious, when it says that all items roll over into NG+, that includes any and all equipment that was equipped at the end of the game, correct?
I am not reading much into this thread to avoid spoilers but I got the game a month ago and am currently 50 hours in.. I am currently
. I am enjoying the game alot but boy I am feeling fatigue a little now, considering I am only just about half way through.. It took me so long to finish Persona 4 (my first Persona game) as in over the course of years, and I wanted to get Persona 5 finished kinda swiftly. I guess i'll just keep chipping away.
In Hawaii with the gang
Already finished the game, and I had the same feeling as you in this particular part. Although, after this event was wrapped up, the fatigue went away pretty quickly. I think this part was just boring to me tbh lol maybe it's the same thing you're going through.
I'm glad to hear that, hopefully its the same with me. Guess I just need to power through this section.
I've said it earlier in the thread and I'll say it again: the more you push yourself past the point of enjoying the game, the less you'll enjoy in the end. A lot of people burn themselves out and either end up irritated at the game length or just quit, especially near the end. I think it's best to step away if playing the game starts feeling like a slog and come back to it after a break.
I adored this game, but this was my low point for it as well. Once you get over that dungeon, things start to get more enjoyable again. That middle section of the game is just a bit of a slog.
I took a break from the game for a couple of months at that exact point so I know how you feel. Finished it very quickly after coming back since it really is a great game, just looooooong.
Another question, this time about my kindness and Futaba. The game is blocking me from hanging with Futaba until I have considerate kindness but it's currently at rank 4 for me and considerate is rank 2. Is this a glitch?
I think you must have misread the requirement. Futaba requires rank 4, not 2.
Also keep in mind you can't pursue party member relationships if you are due to send a calling card.
That makes sense because I was at rank 3 when it gated me and after I got rank 4 I just assumed I was still gated because I thought it said considerate. Plus I was weird and thought considerate was level 5 til I remembered it was level 2. Thank you. I need to rank her up asap because I heard she has useful abilities.
Just booted up the game for the first time and played about an hour so far. The big tip everyone gave me was to take my time and relax so I'm not in a rush to play big chunks of the game at a time. First thing that pops up to me is the music. It's great and goes well with the slick presentation the game has.
For the third time now I THINK I'm at the end of the game...maybe...but also I have zero SP items and see no way to fix that. This is gonna be tough.
Gotta say though as everything comes to a head I am finally finding it hard to hate any of the characters. Somehow even Ryuji.
The music somehow got infinitely better too as you approach the later half of the game. God damn.
Edit:
Okay I just realized that
will take care of things for you in the
so SP items are pointless and I can breathe a sigh of relief.

Full heals were available near the Velvet Room entrance long before that point.
Wait like, was that a thing throughout the game in most palaces at the entrances?
Please don't tell me that.
No, only on December 24. Full heals are available at the top of Mementos, the entrance to Depths of Mementos, and the base at World of Qliphoth.
What do you mean, best way?
You can get every ending on the first playthrough. It's pretty apparent when the game is setting them up and you generally won't be far removed from the last save opportunity when it happens. The best ending is the one earned by never betraying your team.
Since there is a lot to do (shopping, working, gaining stats) I thought there was a "proper" way to play the game. So should I just play the game without worries?
I believe that there is a "schedule" out there on how to max everything out in one go, but honestly it's more fun to just play how you want to.
Shortens the platinum trophy by a lot, using it didn't take the fun away from me
After around 30 hours the game is getting boring as fuck...Does pick up again after Futabas storyline? Because the Hawaii thing and the space palace....fucking hell so many hours doing nothing more than pressing X...what the fuck. Im at 50 hours and getting burn out by how slow the main story is getting at....
You literally only bought the game on Sunday and are already that far in. It's no wonder you've burned yourself out. Try not rushing through and you might find it more enjoyable not rushing from palace to palace.
Alright, I'm parked right outside the final boss, for real this time, and man this game needed to be over two palaces ago.
I believe there's an option in the menu you can use to get reminded on what had happened in the story. In case there's stuff you forget
Thank you, that's good to know. I'm hoping to jump back in after I finish up GoW.
Without Spoilers, any suggestions for what social skills or confidants I should prioritise?
I'm in June, Madarame. Mostly finished the palace, just got to go back in with lock picks, God I wish you can just buy the things.

Temperance, which basically allowes you to buy lockpicks.
Fortune has arguably the most important abilities. Though I'm not sure if it's already available right after Madarama.
Death and Sun are also very useful and have awesome stories.
Hmm, I don't think I have any of those yet except Death but I will work on them.
Any particular focus for social skills? Profiency? Guts? Knowledge?

Damn you ENB, was enjoying his playthrough of the first palace and then he just quit? There aren't any good LP's out there really.
With guts level 2, you can continue Death until rank 7, which unlocks an important ability. And forget to add, moon should be also a high priority.
The next party member requires level 3 knowledge for rank 1, and iirc their are exams during that time.
High Charm and kindness become important during summer and max proficiency in autumn.
Atlus went out of their way to make streaming the game unappealing, so I'm not surprised there are few streams of it available.
I did catch someone's first time stream and he played all the way to the end in the span of a couple weeks while on medical leave. He's normally a rhythm game streamer though so I don't think it got a lot of traction.
Check out Bittersweet gamers. A smaller YouTube channel, with an incredible lets play of P5.
Two people with a lot of knowledge about the series and Japan. And they cut out most of the loading screens and standard battles.
Late reply for this but the differences are really minor IMO. Yeah the loading times are a little longer, but it's not a big enough deal where one loads in say 10 seconds and the other loads in 30. Performance is very close between the two systems, too, and it's only really by playing side by side that you'd notice differences. There is more screen tearing on PS3 though but that doesn't bother me. I started on PS3 and ended on PS4, and would've been fine just finishing on PS3.
It's ok, I found out that the PS3 version shares the same trophy list as its PS4 counterpart, basically all the trophy list depends on region and unfortunately US/EU/ASIA-ENG have the same list on both PS4 and PS3. I unfortunately can't read Japanese or Korean, so hopefully we'll have a Crimson version down the line. And please if there is ever a Crimson/Whatever-red-related-name version
I hope they don't redeem Akechi, hide his every sin under the rug, and make him a playable character via the power of friendship or talk no jutsu
Thanks for the tip but it's exactly the opposite of what I'm looking for. Watched an episode and it feels like a parody with silly jokes and screaming and laughing. :p
I have a very specific taste when it comes to youtubers and LP's.
I really liked Marcus his approach although most people would probably find it boring as fuck.

Instead you can watch his first, blind, complete (I think) playthrough of the game.
I was playing normal but halfway through the first dungeon I started struggling. Not in the mood to prolong the dungeon crawling, I switched to easy. How much easier is Very Easy? I know once you choose it, you can't go back.
I've never used the Simple mode but you shouldn't have too much trouble on Easy mode. That's what I played the game on and I did fine.
Much easier. These are the differences by difficulty, from reddit. I would really only suggest using it if you want to skip the combat entirely.
