Avoided those threads like a plague of course. Do you mean around the games release? I stayed away from /v/ during that time on purpose. I can avoid spoiler threads just fine but when its in the OP you can't do anything about that when your looking through the catalog.

They had to make Kamoshida a huge asshole because the PT risked forcing a mental shutdown on him by stealing his treasure. Once they learn that they can change a heart without harming the person, the tone of the game dies down a lot

>>385532773
Lots of people complain about p4/5's true villain coming out of no where but then fail to point out that Nyx isn't revealed until the last two months. 4 and 5 at least gave some vague clues about the true villain early on

>>385533847
Can you explain this barrier, please? Personally my biggest problem for the other villains is that while Kamoshida was a serious fucking dick that you wanted yo take down, until 6 it felt more like the game pushed them in your face going "hey dude, look at that dude. Ain't he an asshole? Why don't you go change his heart." I feel they didn't spend enough time establishing these villains before pushing you into their palace, not giving enough motivation to make you excited about going after these people.
>>
>>385532640
Are you fucking dumb? Kamoshida and Madarame are great. Akechi and Shido were good. Everyone else does fall flat though.
>>
>>385529063
Because you think villains that agree with your fedora-tipping nihilism are more interesting than either the corrupt self-centered pieces of shit or the political and economic conspirators. I bet you still wish Heath Ledger had survived for another movie so you could have had more of his version of The Joker.

Wait, you stayed away from /v/ when P4 was released, so that you wouldn't get spoiled...and you still haven't played it yet?

It's been nine years. If you cared to play the game, you would have done so by now.
>>
>>385534909
I can't agree 100%. Madarame was handled pretty decently, but everything about the Yakuza guy was rushed and awful though.
>>
>>385534772
You just reminded me how fucking angry the other party members in P5 made me. It fucking pisses me off how every single fucking palace, after you get the treasure, you still get bombarded with "h-h-hey guys, do you think the change of heart will work this time?" I can understand for the new team members for their first mission, but even some of the oldest vets go on about this.
>>
>>385534909
Not him, but thats part of the point of the spaceport palace. The party starts changing hearts because they want popularity, and lose sight of their "justice" or whatever the fuck they referred to it as

As a villain I agree since Yaldy is just Nyarly-lite, but overall Nyx is more memorable. Yet the arcana is the means through which all is revealed

Oh yeah, just remembered that shit.

I still can't get over how poorly they handled pancake man in Persona 5. Persona 4 did it so much better, with having to figure it out yourself, and actually having evidence. Meanwhile with persona 5 it's just too obvious for the wrong reasons. Meanwhile the only concrete evidence was one single line 60+ hours before the reveal. And the way he ends up is so bad, just being a throwaway mini boss. Imagine how rad it would have been if we went into his palace and tried to steal his heart, only for him to stop you after you defeat his shadow self. They really missed out on some opportunities with him before giving him the axe.
>>
>>385535195
Well they were right to be worried right?
>Trigger Okimura change of heart and he dies
>Have to convince Sae to stop being a shot without changing her heart
>Change Shido's heart and the rest of society ignores it

Only half the change of hearts go off without a hitch.

>>385536139
He'll be back for the spin-offs, guaranteed
>>
>>385536139
But the twist isn't that Goro is the traitor, the game makes it obvious. The twist is you and your mates already figures it out and come up with a counter strategy.

And it makes a great smokescreen for the games true twist, i.e. Igor.

>and actually having evidence
what version of P4 did you play? The game deliberately withholds all evidence that Adachi had anything going on until after you pick his name from the fucking menu other than a single line that he says during the Namatame section. At that point in the game Dojima is just as valid a pick, and the game even fucking acknowledges that. This was the major twist before the final twist of the game, and it was handled absolutely horribly.

Well I mean Pharos was foreshadowed pretty early on and then into Ryouji. And the experiments into the shadows combined with the tarot card system would mean you'd be facing "Death" at some point. Death being Nyx herself isn't properly established, but I'd say it doesn't even need to be since the reveal doesn't change how over the course of the game you're fighting in Tartarus to uncover the source of the disturbance, the midnight hour (tied into Apathy syndrome and thus Nyx), and how to reverse it. And of course the buildup in the final 3 months are amazing, easily the best in the series.

P4 and P5 final villains kinda felt like afterthoughts designed solely for a bait and switch.

Because he's more or less the central antagonist of the story as the serial killer behind the mystery and gets far more time to get character development.

The minor individual villains don't get much time allocated to them other than Kamoshida.
>>
>>385539203
I know, but my point is that this was one throwaway line that happened over 60 hours ago. By the point I got to the reveal, I couldn't remember that line for my life.
>>
>>385539094
Absolutely not, especially when you consider that Goro getting himself caught while trying his usual social BS on the main characters is perfectly in line with the character. If you pay attention he tries to initiate every interaction with another person with food almost like a robot, and he does it more than once in Mementos as well, which is probably the biggest hole in the falsehood of his outward appearance.

>>385539553

It's okay anon, as long as you didn't look it up on the internet and start doing it because some site recommended it you're still in okay shape. Your persona might not be a total fabrication.

The worst I've ever seen irl was a guy that did not shut up about how a long weekend was coming up every time he tried to talk to a new person. It was the most artificial shit in the world

How the fuck did I miss this
>>
>>385529063
Cause Adachi is just an asshole. Not a gigantic anime villain who wants to destroy the world cause muh anime backstory, not a power hungry maniac who leads a grand conspiracy to take over the world, just an asshole.

Everyone knows someone like an Adachi, someone who just doesn't give a fuck and would do anything if it amused them.

Naoto in the cutscene before you have to choose literally says that the culprit has to be someone who could approach the Dojima residence without raising suspicion.

And we've only seen one other person in that house the entire game who wasn't a Dojima or a party member.

It was very obvious.
