Why is this fucking game so hard compared to P4 or even P3?

Why is this game so bullshit?

>give boss like 6 phases
>refill his health twice
>last phase can use mudoon on protag to instantly kill him

Because those number are meaningless if you know what you're doing

I'm playing on normal everything is constantly blue to me.

Removing the exhaustion mechanic really makes the game's difficulty dependant on your own personal time.

I played 8 megaten games and the only shit that is different r how enemies hit you for a truckload of damage this time around

Not even smt demons hit as hard

Why do bosses in Persona have such a fucking massive HP pool? Since the combat is so slow any boss fight takes hours.
Especially when you compare it to SMTIV:A where you can beat most bosses in less than 10 turns and the animations are fast af.

>>373051763
You are absolutely lying to yourself if you think there is nothing wrong with the artificial difficulty in this game. The DLC difficulty results in being one-shotted, with perma-death.

For being bad? I thought this was a conversation about game quality, not reputation. Instant death is an indefensible mechanic unless you can see it coming and are able to prepare for it (or, more simply, how about they stop giving game overs when the protagonist dies), and unless you think you should literally only use Personas that nul/reflect/absorb both hama and mudo, you can't prepare for it and can easily get screwed.

Genuine question, how are RPGs considered hard?

Is it just that you have to grind more? Or know things in advance? Or get lucky? None of those things are difficulty

Fuck you. Fucking retard. Don't play on the literal hardest difficulty if you can't handle, spoiler, the hardest difficulty.

>>373053464
Yes, you can reduced the chances of it. But you can't prevent it completely until late in the games (and even then, how many personas nullify both light AND dark?), it's still a roll of the die in the end. For regular damage this is fine, for instant death this is not. Also, you can't ambush bosses.

>>373053531
>I'm disgruntled because I didn't get the opportunity to spend 30 extra dollars on a poorly made backpack, teddie 2.0 plush, and a castrated soundtrack and art book.

A regular mob wiped my whole team from full life with one attack in the first dungeon. It can get pretty crazy. And that was with a damage move, not a KO move.

>>373054152

You're supposed to grind at least a bit.

>>373049779
Because you're playing it blind. I think most people had some exposure to P3/P4 before playing them, like I knew the tricks to the P4 boss battles which made the game easy, plus stuff that you can do to get EZ stat upgrades. In P5 you have to discover and learn all this shit yourself unless you've played the Jap version or are using a guide.

I'm getting the game soon, might as well ask it here
Normal or Hard?

>>373051763
Nah. SMTIV is harder than this. P5 is only hard when you're slightly under-levelled. All-Out Attacks and the ridiculously simple "negotiations" make it easy.

He's charming I guess, but he isn't really as interesting or funny as Teddie.

It's been years since I've played P4 or P3, but I can't help but feel as though the investigation point prior to the dungeons opening felt more organic. Furthermore, the cat explicitly says that people with immense desires are the only ones with palaces. Why the hell are we waiting for a valid reason to investigate when the palace is reason enough to be suspicious.

I don't see how you could beat the second boss on Hard or Merciless on the first playthrough. First boss was tough, but fair mostly. Second just absolutely wrecked me in the second phase no matter what I tried. Had to put it down to Normal, which was then too easy.

>>373055794
You gotta wait a certain amount of time, then check the cardboard box for him to go "oh shit Izanagi." Same thing with the P3 DLC and the skill cards.

Izanagi and the Picaro version are broken as fuck for the early game. Same with the other two in mid game.

First summon from the compendium is free.

I'm only at the first dungeon but I already like the blondies better than P4 characters. I really liked P4, but so ar it has the least interesting characters out of 3-4-5.

Well, I know what to do with this info, then

They spent 30k yen which roughly translates to $300 USD.

Literally all you have to do to get an approximation is move a decimal two numbers in.

>>373056798
30000 yen converts to around $280 buddy

How do you get low level personas? First Pyro Jack I met I one shot so I can't even hold them up.

>>373056947
Just wait til you have to get it up to tier 4 or 5 (I honestly don't know since I'm still lingering at 3) to do Futaba's Link.

>>373052858
It's $50

>>373057135
Knowledge goes up slow. But I would suggest that you get guts to 3rd rank so you get temperance confidant to start when you get the opportunity. Eating challenge burgers and watching dvd gives that rank fast.

>>373057157

>>373052984
There is a drop on hard but it's so negligible that you'll barely notice it.
Merciless/Challenge is the 40% exp. Which is still better than P4G's 25%, and the game is actually built around it so you don't have to grind for hours if you know what you're doing.

>>373057601
>EOPs still don't ever get the references
Nigga it's literally a Lupin meets Detective Conan movie with Stone Ocean motifs.

Just like Persona 4 was literally Diamond is Unbreakable only instead of Kira wants to live a normal life it was Adachi wants to live an amazing life. Only they added Doraemon.

The opening sequence is ripped straight out of the old Lupin intro and Morgana's AOT splash screen has Morgana versions of stills from Lupin's intro. Goro has shit from Detective Conan.

>>373051763
It's about on par with SMTIV but far easier than SJ or Nocturne

>>373063657
