Makoto is ruining the game for me. I hate her so much, I can't even put it into words. That scene with her in Futaba's house got me so angry I had to start fast-fowarding through it. It was a slap in the face.

>BUT IT WAS SO CUTE AND GREAT MAI WAIFU IS SCARED OF THE DARK SO KAWAII AND THEN SAKURA-SAN ASKED IF WE WERE DATING HA HA

Makoto is a Mary Sue. She doesn't have flaws. She has Hollywood flaws. She just got done reasoning out some impossible deduction out of thin air, then the game tries to subvert it by giving her a weakness and saying "Hey look, she's still human!" But she isn't. She's a dominatrix yamato nadeshiko with a moe side. She's not a character with flaws. She's Hermione.

Fantastic.

Has a mid-game slump, but picks up again near the ending. Fantastic soundtrack, several minor improvements to combat, bringing back negotiation was cool, and the whole package was just very polished and stylish.

>>375468526
I'm convinced all these Makoto hate posts are coming from the same insecure little faggot because of the identical shitty writing style in all of them. Can you just fuck off and never come back? Like just hang yourself or something. It's nigh fucking impossible to get a thread going without your obnoxious ass coming in and being a fucking sperg. What's wrong? Your shitty waifu got relegated to slink so you have to take it out on the main cast? You're fucking pathetic.

>>375469103

I thought it was consistent for the most part. Kamoshida had the benefit of introducing the gameplay loop so that helps him out significantly, most of the following dungeons up till futaba's were carried by the main cast introductions.

Haru and Sae's dungeons were weak, and the one proceeding that didn't pick up until Akechi shows up.

So 3 dungeons ultimately for me were disappointments.

>>
>>375466758

9/10 game. One of the few games that lived up to if not went up to par with the hype it made since the teaser stream 4 years ago.

Some gripes:

Akechi wasn't exactly built up enough as a character. If they wanted for the players to feel bad for him, then the game didn't exactly made that happen.

They should've added more incentive for a NG+ apart from the super boss. I'm personally a fan of making you play the game for a good ending/bad ending then see the true ending, if not a stinger for what's to come in a second playthrough. That way there's strong incentive to play another 100 or so hours.

I didn't like how they handled the final dungeon. The pacing's actually quite decent from Palace 1-7, but the final dungeon just felt rushed. The final boss could've been a bit more challenging as well.

Sae should've been a romantic option too.
>>
>>375466758
Ive not finished it yet but so far i have major complaints that no really seems to mention often.

First Morgana literally makes sections of the game awful acting as a gate keeper as to when you can and cant do things. At least when the stamina system limited you it made sense, and you also had the choice to gamble with your health and ability to function the next day. Now a cat just acts like a parent and limits what you can do while holding your hand.

Castles and mementos are less interesting and far less varied than the tower in 3 so far with no change in sight. Change of heart sub missions seem like a after thought as well which makes mementos even worse.

Difficulty is scaled down from both 3 and 4, ive been bowling the game over.

Pacing has been altered, seemingly to make it so almost all of the days have some sort of cutscene or event that often eats up part of rhe day or further limits how and when you can do things.

Which is even more frustrating because they added so much to micro manage and do, so you never feel like you have enough time to do everything.

Far from the nest JRPG, I enjoyed Persona 3 and 4 more so far. 4 had its own major issues though.

My fav Persona OST
No social link was outstanding but they all were consistently decent, with Sun, Emperor and Hanged man being the better of them.

The party members were good enough, rather innofensive I would say. You're not gonna really hate anyone (much), but there are some bland characters. This could have been better.
Overall the best Modern Purse Owner.

Exactly how I feel. It has been a long time since I game lived up to or exceeded my expectations. Hell, it has been a very long time since I've dumped 100+ hours into a singleplayer game. I've been jaded as fuck the past few years about vidya.
>>
>>375466758
It's ok

I think I might enjoy the VN portion of the game more than the JRPG portion, which isn't good because the VN part only serves to benefit the JPRG part and not the other way around.

There's a lot of X'ing through dialogue and the difficulty curve is front loaded.

It's very much a retread of the formula that P4 set up, but I give it a pass because P4 was nine years ago.

Even with everything I don't like about it, I still spent this whole month playing it.
>>
it's probably the best kinda game persona can be if it wants to have SMT gameplay but with escapist SOL elements. the weakest parts of persona 5 is, as per usual, the actual gameplay is put on the backburner by design, and the actual idea of 'phantom thief' slowly loses the emphasis on the thief part. it's a game that strangely comes together; the sort of sudden intrusion of the law god and all of his dialogue was great, but the cast literally could not comprehend him. and the idea that the phantom thieves cease to exist if no one believes in them sort of seems like a half-baked thought in order to give us a cutscene in which the meter goes to 100% so like, the crew is renewed or some bullshit. but wasn't there some point half-way through the game that it was bad that they focused so much on how they were perceived publically?

honestly tho i much prefer a minimalistic story & emphasis on gameplay like in nocturne anyways.

Sorry, should have been more clear and said best out of 3,4 and 5. I haven't played 1 or 2 cause everything people tell me is that 1 is a complete 5 out of 10 and 2 had a great story, but some of the worst gameplay out there.

I've never played any persona games, only watched a few videos of P3 and P4 years ago.

One question that I always had: Can these people summon their personas in the real world, or are they only powerful in these mind realms?
>>
>>375475021

They can only summon persona within their designated realms. Persona 3 protags are probably the only exception since they can summon theirs anywhere provided they use an evoker.

1. abysmal translation
2. terrible english voice acting
3. shares way too much in common with persona 4 and adds nothing unique of it's own,the only advancement is the main dungeons with is about as big a step up from p4 as p4 was from p3. the biggest thing is putting in conversations/demons to make it more like SMT
4. compendium is way too similar to persona 4, it's almost identical and it isn't very large.
5. it looks like a ps3 game and is one in 2017 on the ps4, still runs at 30fps on ps4 pro.
6. social links are not very interesting, even if the character designs are good. in part due to translation/english VA
7. main plot is largely arbitrary, the only one that matters is kamoshida as an introduction sae and shido, the rest are just excuses to gain a new party members and to make you popular as a minor plot device.
8. too much railroading and too many auto social links

Overall it's the weakest of the three neo-persona games.

I enjoyed what I played but I got bored during Sae's palace and I haven't played for about a week. This happened to me with pretty much every persona game, I've only beat 2 and 3 while every other one I've dropped at some point.

Every team slice-of-life event was half-assed to the extreme, Hawaii especially. There was obviously going to be a P5 equivalent of Operation Babe Hunt during the beach event, but it's just walking up to generic NPCs in a cutscene with absolutely no dialogue.
>>
>>375477616
The stories are self contained. As I said they have negligible influence on the overarching plot, it's just for the new team member to become a team member for the sake of it. You aren't trying to save people and stop the killer, you aren't working toward getting rid of shadows/stopping nix, you are just beating random bad guys because they are bad. And then you all agree to stop at this one bad guy because he sued protag and is the worst of the bunch for no real reason, until the big reveal.

Persona 5 lacks a defined goal in general, it's just punish bad guys we come across and you will never run out of bad guys.

Defiantly in my running for GoTY. I enjoyed the hell out of it and it felt like a improvement over P4: Golden in so many ways. I liked the S-Links having more going on then normal, and everyone having uses was a nice touch. Combat was way better, and I like them using actual Demons/Personas like P1 and P2 then the boring shadows from P3/P4.

I will say that I wish there was another month or two, and things did start to feel a bit rushed near the end of the final palace, but it still satisfied me. I also wish a few of the characters were either introduced better (Matoko) or earlier (Haru was brought in waaaay too late, and was the same criticism I had for Naoto in P4). I also wish there was a little less setup for the Palaces, and more opportunities to do stuff at night during less serious events.

I still like the story and ending of P3 better, but P5 is the best gameplay wise so far and was waaay superior to P4 in pretty much every way.

fuck off faggot. regardless that's not the important part. the important part is that the bad guys are chosen on a whim. They only target who they happen to come across because they are looking for bad guys, so they deal with a bunch of minor threats and those threats are never outside the possibility of regular law dealing with them like adechi until shido/akechi, nor is it an epidemic situation like persona 3.
>>

Minor threats which are connected to the big (non god) bad at the end. It's a slow upward climb to the climax. They're trying to build the notoriety of the phantom thieves. Christ, Ryuji never shuts the hell up about it. I'm not entirely sure what alternative you were looking for. 5 is different from 4 is different from 3. To be clear, I like the format of 4 a lot better so I think propping up 4 and 3 is much more appropriate than shitting on 5 with petty misgrievances.

building popularity is just a plot device to make akechi dislike you more because supporting phantom thieves means people dislike him and he's an attention whore.

shido would have taken care of them as a threat even if they didn't get popular as they are aware of the metaverse. popularity isn't integral to plot at all.

How they hell are they all connected to shido in any meaningful way?

They should have put the focus on finding this other metaverse user who killed the train conductor/princibal, but that would have made it just another scooby doo adventure. instead they learn about another metaverse user and are all "neato!" and just keep messing with nobodys.

The bad guys don't warrant their intervention besides shido and shido is only because he has metaverse access. They complain adults won't report kamoshida when they could just go to the police and say they were abused themselves.

Honestly what's even the point of playing personas 3 and 4 after playing 5? on a pure gameplay perspective it's completely fucking heads and shoulders above the two. They're obsolete at this point.

Persona 5 is just 4 with some minor added things like tower abilities. Hell they even got rid of the dizzy mechanic where if you wail on a knocked down foe the don't get up right away.

Not just the story, the dungeons get progressively worse as the game moves on. Either monotonous, annoying puzzles (thanks to weird load spots with respawning enemies) or literal hallways.

Even if we accept the absurd notion that there is a "true self" (something that P4 in particular challenged with S links like Rise's), personas aren't the true self. They just represent an aspect of your personality. Athena, for example, represents Aigis's humanity as evidenced by the fact that when she rejects her humanity giving birth to Metis (who is not explicitly stated to be her shadow, but is consistent with how characters' shadows have been portrayed in later games) she also loses Athena. This is also why Naoto's persona is male even though everyone else's personas are the same gender as their character. It's not because Naoto is actually a man deep down, but because it represents the way she wants to be seen in her professional life.

I think it's fantastic, but there are a few legitimate translation errors, or just generally stupid translations meant to westernize it that feel incredibly out of place in a Japanese set game. In particular, Ryuji has quite few attempts at American slang lines that read like the most out of touch, "I never talk to anyone but my cats" person in the world wrote them. In other cases his slang doesn't even sound like slang, just things the localizers mistook for actual slang in the style of, "highschool kids these days say stuff like this right?"

Other parts of the translation are just fine though, so, I'm a bit confused as to how these things actually happened. I know I made up joke reasons above, but I don't seriously believe that. Something went wrong though. It's not the end of the world of course, just a mar on the face of an incredibly good game with very few flaws. I'd be nit picking in most cases, there's only a few that seem to be sizeable, but, overall, it's just really a good experience.

I am not going to call it perfect but I would be lying if it isn't the closest Atlus has gotten to perfect the Persona formula. I have my nitpicks with the game especially for the last part of the game which to me it felt rushed. I am not going to jump to Atlus throat and be like ''hurrr durr unfinished garbage'' You can tell they tried their best and gave the best effort to work with what it was on their plate. The result to me is a new a gold standard in JPRGs. For a game like this to come out when turn base are dying and JRPG's have clouded themselves with panty quest 2421 it is almost salvation.The series can get better and I hope it does. For now I will just look forward to project re fantasy. It gives me this Final Fantasy Tactics vibe and that is great.

I just beat the first palace so this is more of a first impression. I've been wanting to try out Persona since 3 but haven't gotten around to it until now, and so far I'm completely disappointed. The writing is beyond generic, to the point where I'm physically cringing every few lines. Same goes for the characters themselves. The gameplay is boring and the whole execution thing just makes me feel like I'm playing a clunky pokemon ripoff instead of a full blown RPG. The "open" aspect is just kindof a spit in the face, as every other time I try to do something that fucking cat reveals to me that there's actually only one thing I can do at that moment, and that one thing will often take the entire day to do. I'd be more than willing to look past the gameplay if the story was good but it all just feels like it was written for people who are younger than the characters.

It's comfy as fuck and I like the art style. But that's a double edge sword as this is the only game I have actually fallen asleep to while playing, and I've done it 3 times in the past week.

If the idea of the Visual Novel JRPG hybrid doesn't interest you, you probably won't enjoy the game. I think both parts of the game are almost subpar on their own. The developers aren't that big so there's only so much they can do with their budget.

I still like it though, and I don't finish games much these days either. Finished at 90 hours

I am probably one of the few who don't want this game get P4G treatment. That move just seemed like a cheap cash cow to me. I'd rather they make P5-2 or something that expand from the current plot. Sure the casts aren't as close as the one from P3 and P4 but that is its own charm. They are the phantom thieves who are serious in their line of work. Most of the time they text around talking about their phantom thieves things rather than talking when is their next hot spring peeking scene.

Futaba to me was one of the best things about the game in general.

I mean, her Palace was my favourite and the storyline surrounding it and her situation were easily the most emotional in the game. It was great to see the PT helping a desperate person with their powers rather than just targeting corrupt cunts.

The fact that she also essentially gets two Social Links as she is the major theme in Sojiro's one also adds to her characterisation.

And lets be honest she has the best motivation for going after Shido as he had her mother killed, stole her research and then had the blame put on her.

>>375492850
She's not all that interesting. There's nothing bad or annoying about her. You won't get angry or rage or anything. I mean, she's cute and all. But her storyline fizzles out early on, and the rest of the game is listening to her go on and on about her shallow hopes and dreams. It's kind of like what having an actually girlfriend is like.

It's a 9.5/10 in my book, which is pretty much a perfect score because the only game that I can even consider calling an objective 10/10 is God Hand. It's not a perfect game, and it slumps at Okumura's Palace, but it had me completely engaged and enjoying myself thoroughly the whole time, despite its length.

>>375491467

Pyramid > Ship = Casino > Castle = Museum > Bank > Space

Space was just tedious as fuck. The BGM was absolutely disgusting, the ID search and eavesdropping was boring. The only redeeming part was the semi challenging airlock puzzle and Big Bang Challenge attack cracked me up.

Pyramid was just oozing with atmosphere they got it to a tee. I know a lot of people hated ship but I loved that palace. I actually felt like playing a stealth game because being a mouse while entering combat felt like certain death; there was actual threat in it; unlike being human and just no-selling encounters.
>>
>>375493678
It's not perfect, but it's the closest thing there is to a perfect game in my eyes. The only thing about it thaat I think is outright bad is the lack of a level select, outside of that it has some things about it that could be considered flaws, but not only are they minor, they also have understandable reasons for being the way they are and whether they are a flaw or not is subjective. Still, I don't think it's perfect, but if I had to call a game a 10/10, God Hand is the one I'd choose. It's not even my favorite game, but I just see so little wrong with it.

It's pretty good but a few things

1) Is there a single virgin in this game?
2) So much railroading. Fuck off Mona, I should be able to brew some coffee at the end of the day. Also, so many school related events take up the entire day
3)the stat grind is pretty ridiculous to get just the first or second rank for a confidant


Also Makoto is best girl

>Is there a single virgin in this game?
Almost everyone.
>>
>>375493972
Maybe if some other games came out

>P5 was my last next-gen sequel to look forward to

fuck what do we have now?
>>
>>375493997
Most of the schoolgirls are still virgins.

>there are people who actually think Pyrimad is the best
>those brain dead picture puzzles
>the dungeon was basically repeating itself the longer you traversed in it

Y'all letting your waifu and good OST fool you in to thinking that dungeon was good, Casino and Museum shit on it
>>
>>375493997
>1) Is there a single virgin in this game?
Most of them? But since you are wording it like that you are one of those people who think that girl loses their "purity" the second they spend time with a man that's not you.

What has Razorfist talked about p5 on twitter or something?
>>
>>375493997
>1) Is there a single virgin in this game?
Pretty well everyone except maybe the actual prostitute and the rape victims.
>2) So much railroading. Fuck off Mona, I should be able to brew some coffee at the end of the day. Also, so many school related events take up the entire day
I've concluded that the sheer amount of this in comparison to previous games is to give them room to work in extra shit for the inevitable re-release.

>Also Makoto is best girl
Congratulations on coming to the correct conclusion.

I liked the picture puzzles...

The biggest contrarian out there right now apart from this place. I only agree with him about the state of fighting games in the eyes of the general audience but all his other opinions are laughable, almost Jim Sterling tier. I sincerely hope he goes the way of AlphaOmegaSin and fuck off already.

Fuck off.

P5 is a non-grim derp fantasy JRPG exclusive to a sony console. It's safe to assume he already hates it. about 3/4 of the time on his FF7/Catherine reviews are solely dedicated to bitching about anime.
>>
>>375493997
Only 100% confirmed not-virgin is the prostiteacher.

>>375494153
The only palace that really repeated itself too much was the Ship. Casino and Museum are pretty good even if I would say Pyramid is best
>>
>>375489012
>it all just feels like it was written for people who are younger than the characters.

Couldn't put my finger on why I dislike the writing so much, but that actually nailed it
>>
>>375492891
Yeah so what? Difference is I liked Hermione.
Didn't like Makoto because I noticed /v/ was brigading against her.
>>
P5 has some flaws to nitpick (or if you are a diehard P4 fanboy that tries to insist that P5 is a worse game)

Overall, 9/10, easily my favorite RPG so far this gen and probably my GOTY (I have yet to play Nier, though)

Can't wait from Crimson

>>375494919
>brigading

you have to go back
>>
>>375494879
Well the target audience is in the roughly 13-17 area.
>>
>>375494731
Pyramid literally repeated itself in every level you progressed through with things just re-arranged differently, you did the same shit with the lights to open the other doors and only other thing that happened was the puzzle with the globes
>>
>>375495254
This.

I honestly do not know why people here liked Pyramid that much. It was a good palace. But not necessarily the best.

Then I also do not understand how people hated Bank. It had some good puzzles. It was one of the kinda "hardest" because of how you are going to be starved on SP later on if you are just going at it in 2 runs. Though not necessarily the best, it was still good.

If there was one that actually kinda bad, but not really "bad bad". It was space.

I'm pretty sure Philly is always watching but the new team doesn't explicitly reference him in respect to the past team's work

>>375488695
He appears at the end of the game my dude.

>>375495752
After two months of being there the other students think you killed a dude. Would you really rat out a killer?

>im 15% into the game and here are my thoughts
>cringing btw

You are analyzing the story of which youve read one chapter. Sounds more like you have some preconcieved notions going into the game honestly. And you have sat down and played more than 3 times this week and fallen asleep? So what about the times you don't fall asleep? Unless you play 1-2 a time I dont understand how youre only one palace in. Could you perhaps be a normalfag?
>>
My main complaint is that I screwed up the Rank 9 convo with Takemi so I got accidentally fucking friendzoned by best girl.
>>
>>375496025
Fucking how? The way I recall she asks why you were so worried when you thought she would be leaving and one of the options was literally "I love you."
>>
>>375495883
That isn't Philemon, it's Lavenza
>>
>>375496213
Yeah that was the answer to the second question out of three. I screwed up on the third one after she kind of blew me off and I just assumed that the actual make or break romance moment would come later.

The "it isn't a joke" as the last anwer struck me as pretty damn corny so I went with the other one. I suppose I'm complaining that the writing was dumb, which is silly in and of itself.

6/10

Game was way too padded than it should have been and stop following that garbage P3/4 story structure
