Yeah sure

Oh shit does he die or something? I was actually digging Goro's aesthetic in my team
>>376994394
did him not having any party member skills beyond the ailment recovery thing not tip you off
>>376994394
>Browsing /v/ while playing a game people are talking about constantly
what are you doing here you madman
I put him on Debilitate duty for the twins.
Shinjiro

>did him not having any party member skills beyond the ailment recovery thing not tip you off
Shit I guess I should have saw this coming. Sucks they decided to kill him off I liked him as a party memeber
>>376994453
Uhhhhh that's what spoiler tags are for man.
>>376994663
>Shit I guess I should have saw this coming. Sucks they decided to kill him off I liked him as a party memeber
buddy leave while you can
>>376994440
?
When he joins you, it unlocks all the other skills like baton pass etc.
>>376994320
what are you talking about Goro was great, especially because he has Light and Darkness and the palace where you get him is filled with demons weak to both of those.
>>376994320
it's worse when they give you a temporary party member that you are forced to use for every little thing or else fail
>>376994768
>>376994781
What the fuck assholes
Are you literally 5? I could understand not using tags when actually discussing the game but blatantly spoiling like this is just retarded and serves no purpose
Enjoy the ban faggots
>>376994781
>igor is a fake and is the final boss.
It was so obvious tho, because of his voiceIsamu Tanonaka ;_;
>>376994938
yeah they're assholes but what the fuck were you expecting my man
>>376995053
More (you)s from his weak bait?
>>376995053
Discussion of the game and not bullshit like that for absolutely no reason
This IS a video games board right?
>>376994320
I hate Akechi as a character but he was a pretty sweet party member.
>>376994320
He learns debilitate, which is incredibly useful for the twins in NG+. Having a dedicated debuffer makes the fight way easier even on Merciless.
>>376994394
>anon doesn't know!
Run
>>376995154
Yes, but you are forgetting one crucial detail
Everyone here is an ass
>>376994387
The guy even learns debilitate if you were crazy enough to grind that much.
>>376994320
>game gives me Akechi
>bench Akechi and sell all the shit I get from the palace he would use
THANKS A LOT FAG JK
>>376994387
>>376994320
Did he fusion autism Robin Hood
Hoping he will come back in the spinoff. Can wait to main Loki
>>376996106
Don't worry. He'll be playable in Persona 5 Arena.
>>376996106
Putting aside my opinions when it comes to his actual character, dude was awesome as a party member and shit. I'd be cool with having him back in a rerelease or Arena.
>>376994938
>going into a site that prolifically spoils games whenever possible
You dun goofed
Akechi is literally revealed to be the killer in the title screen
>>376995326
>if you were crazy enough to grind that much.
Or if you go find the reaper during the flu season a couple times. It ain't even fair and I love it.
>>376997180
I really wish they would have made everything about him less obvious. They acted like the pancake scene was some major revelation and no one would notice or remember it.
>>376994320
You don't know SHIT.
>>376996106
I really hope he will change personality or something. I got a feeling that his psychopathy is a result of brainwashing.
>>376997553
I'm sure they'll find some way to make none of it his fault.
He's not like Adachi where it was clear the entire time he was an ass and he was fine with it.
They actually tried to make Akechi sympathetic.
>>376997180
How so?
>>376997452
The pancake scene was very easy to miss. Unless you're the type to pay extreme attention to subtle things like that, they made sure the comment flew over your head. One of my frends caught that but he just attributed it to future party member status since he's on the cover
>>376997798
Akechi is a literal mass murderer though, even Adachi only killed two people in reality.
>>376998040
Yes, that's true.
And I never said they succeeded in making him sympathetic.
But you underestimate the Atlus writers, I wouldn't be surprised if he was rewritten to be under the influence of some god or something stupid.
>>376998040
I know, but doesn't stop Atlus potentially turn him into dindu
>>376997452
I noticed right off the bat and it tipped me off it be wary of him. My friend that played the game completely missed it. So yeah some people just don't pay attention.
>>376998152
>>376998142
I don't doubt he'll be "redeemed" in P5A, it's obvious.
It was bad enough watching Yu and his crew get all buddy buddy with Adachi so I'm not looking forward to seeing Haru ignore the fact that Akechi murdered her dad alongside numerous other people.
How did you guys beat the game so quickly?
>>376994320
arsch in tales of abyss. when you meet up with him in the mushroom forest. guy dies in like 4 hits.
>>376997363
will do this and fuck seas shadow up. its NG+ anyway.
>>376998040
Akechi I ended up feeling bad for after it was all said and done though. I mean he was both used as a pawn by a trickster god and as a pawn by a crazed power hungry politician. All be it he thought he had the upper hand though. Wouldn't have minded a redemption for him but I'm still happy with how it ends for him.
>>376994541
>not fighting them alone
its persona trediton you pissing on.
>>376998249
First playthrough was 107 hours for me, give or take 2 hours cumulative for menu and idle time, then 158 hours total for the platinum trophy finish. Its by no means fast to finish, atleast for me. Its easy to plat though
>>376998349
I wish there was an option to kill him yourself.
>>376994938
i was spolied months Before the game even got out in the west but, if you did not seegoro fucking you in the ass comingi dont know what to say.
>>376998397
When they inevitably give you the option to forgive him in the remake, they should also give you the option to tell him to go fuck himself and everyone can be happy.
>>376998236
It will be a full blown drama I'm afraid, with Akechi try to do everything to make up for his fault and atone his sin.
>>376998371
Don't care.
>>376997452
i did notice but they only brought it up 50 hours later when i have well forgotten about it.
>>376998397
>>376998457
I actually hoping it will be like Namatame situation in P4. Killing him will actually bring you to bad ending and showing how you are not so much different than Akechi.
>>376998615
I was thinking more along the lines of just telling him to fuck off, or being given the option to take his place or not like Cognitive Goro suggests. One way he dies and you just get the vanilla ending, the other way he rejoins the party and he gets pasted into the cutscenes afterwards with a bit of dialogue.
akechi dose not deserve to die. he deserves to live a Life were everyone will know his a mass murder and will forever be looked down with disguest. thats a fate worse than Death for him.
>>376998679
I hope there is an option to recruit him to the party and then betray him later on.
>>376998684
At best he should lend his power to the Thieves until they beat Yaldabaoth and whatever extra enemy they throw into the remake, then testify in Joker's place.
>>376998679
Whelp, that goes against what the PT fighting for. They will never kill or let someone to die, but they want to force them to confess their sin, regardless how big their crime.
>>376994394
>Oh shit does he die or something?
Yes, he sacrifices himself to save you.
>Game let's you choose your party
>The unchosen characters level up faster than anything you have on active roster
>>376994320
>game temporarily gives you party member
>kills one of your other party members
>proceeds to kill the antagonist that had been built up for half the game
>becomes the final boss
>>376996106
In the eventual re-release for Vita and possibly Switch, he'll get a revamped social link and an optional Palace.
>>377000675
>Vita
>and possibly Switch
>>376994320
Akechi DansGame (c) twitch these days
>>377000926
You missed the SEGA threads then. They plan on porting 5.
>>376994394
>browsing /v/ while playing the one game everyone is talking about
I straight up abandoned /v/ for like a month once I picked up my copy, only been back for like two or three days, because I knew I'd see shit like this.
yeah i have no sympathy for people who didn't figure out akechi before the twist was revealed. i still love his eng VA though and i hope in the remaster we can keep him in the party
>>376998891
Misleading, but accurate at the same time.
>>377003601
I'm definitely down to keeping him. Would be cool to have him in your party when you take Shido down.
>>376999440
1 (ONE) game that does this.
>>377003774
Are ya retarded? Guys dead. He can't stay in party lol
>>377004256
Nah. He will come back in the spinoff
>>377004939
As a final boss though.
>>377006428
Why Atlus would use him as final boss? It's a waste
>>377004256
Shinji died in P3 and you can save him in P3P anyway.
MY SKILLS EXCEED YOURS
>>376994663
You're a big fag so he betrays you and then dies for you
