She'd just been diddled by a teacher, she was in enough pain as it was.

What exactly should I be choosing for demon negotiations in p5? My first several persona I got I felt like there was no rhythm or reason to it despite me trying to conform to what they like but even then it seemed as if some that didn't like my responses still joined. Also how many chances do you get when talking to them and do you only have to answer a couple of the questions right and not all of them?

BECAUSE THAT IGOR IS FAKE AND THE FINAL BOSS YOU DUMBFUCK

I honestly haven't been up to date with this generation's consoles. Still got the old PS3(fat/phat?) and PSP..

I'm planning to get a PS4 this week for P5 and FF15. Is it worth buying a PS4 Pro or is the normal PS4 good enough? I'll be planning to buy an SSD for it too.

if you romance Tae do you get to see her in a swimsuit?

>>173051323
No reason not to get a pro if you don't have a ps4 yet.

>>173051107
Plot twist: P5 is just a simulation used by Kirijo group to create new Persona-using robutts

>>173051276
I WAS TALKING ABOUT THE REAL ONE HE FUCKING SOUNDS LIKE THE GUY THEY GOT FOR THEADORE IN Q

>>173051029
Not him but the characters aren't pleasantly autistic enough. Ryuji is way too normal a person and everyone is an ass like in real life. It's not what Persona is supposed to be about.

>>173051223

He's not wrong. Even in Japan people complained 5 has this unfriendly and oppressive atmosphere with the majority of the people hating Protag vs 4's small town comfyness with everyone welcoming Yu with open arms.

Granted, that's probably the point.

>>173051323

>>173051223

You kidding. 5 is an emotionally draining experience with how unfair and tragic the world is with you barely eeking out a win and going off into an uncertain tommarow.

4 everyone is great except one asshole and once you beat him down you punch out a God and swag off into the night with nobody ever being able to stand against you.

The different is startling. Even 3 is more cheerful and triumphant despite it's protag fucking dying.

>tfw bonglord and ps4 is refusing to let me stream p5 for my friends
anyway around this?

Does Ryujis social link ever evolve past muh leg and muh club or can I just stop doing it now?

So let me get this straight - You have download some DLC to get the Japanese dub? Why is this a thing in this day and age?

Surely the PS4 disc has enough space to include it?

What are the 'picaro' cards? Is it literally just a fancier version of the persona?

>>173053717
Better stats and different skills.

8-4 should have localized this game if we had to choose between them and Atlus USA

So I'm at the free-roaming part of the game finally. Is it like P4 where going into the dungeon asap is the better option for time management or is it better to hold off and prepare, and wait for the last few days?

Automata's translation and sales blow P5 out of the water

>>173052952
>>173053397
Yeah mate it's for the EU PKG. So if you downloaded US one, it won't work.

>>173053227
They did it most likely for statistics.
It's their first dual-audio release.
Them, being a business, want to track down how many people actually want dual audio and actually download it, thus giving them information whether it's financially viable in the future.
Because licensing Japanese VAs does cost, and it's not cheap either.

>>173053402
Is the original game like this? Did Mass Effect's writers translate this game or something? I don't know if I can even finish this

What the fuck am I reading?

this last push to take a dump on the translation is anti-trump shrieking tier amusing tbqh
someone already had to edit some of the sentences to remove the context after having it explained it to them

>>173053890
The dungeons take multiple days in P5 so they will interfere with the social links no matter what you do. There are also some events that can't be done until the dungeon is cleared, so it's probably best to get them out of the way quickly. That said, if there are some slinks you want to focus on *coughtemperancecough* it's a good idea to avoid those days.

>>173056263

It doesn't matter, P5 is it's own story

>>173058194
There's no overarching plot

The first two are just SMT in a school, the third is SMT in a school with a visual novel tacked on and the fourth is SMT does Twin Peaks and Buffy.

>>173057863
Outside of his pride and vengeful personality, he's a very potentially attractive individual. He's influential, he's powerful, he's had social standing, and he's attractive to a lot of people. If he was more calculating and manipulative, he'd probably get Ryuji sucking his dick too. The problem is he forces himself on women, rather than building the trapping relationship for them. Lots of girls would love a man uses them as a piece of meat and toys with them, it's that his method of control is too overt, too much direct control than indirect control. Girls are more comfortable with decisions, even painful ones, if they feel like it was their decision and not you leading it to them.

Plus all the social pressures confound the issue. Really it's just girls who see a girl with a welt and in parts of themselves they don't tell anyone, they get excited. Subtlety and intimidation can melt a girl hard, it's the status that buffers his flubbery of those earlier bits.

If you can get it for like, 20 bucks, it MAY be worth it. Honestly the only reason I don't completely regret buying it is because I'm a huge FF fag and would never be able to let it go without at least seeing how bad it is/was for myself

From what I've heard the subtitles are really shit and some parts aren't even translated. Is the dub bad enough to still go with the original?

#FE is what Persona is in the hands of Nintendo
P4 is what Persona is in the hands of carefree Atlus just trying to make some extra money
P5 is what Persona is in the hands of punished Atlus that needs to perform the best it can or face ruin

I haven't used Amazon in years.
They feel like a genuine monopoly who don't give a fuck.
You don't even get free shipping without their yearly subscription bullshit.

Why would I ever use them when I can use some dinky retailer instead who offers free release day minus one shipping instead?

Welp, party is already level 16 and counting before the chapel in the 1st castle. Let's see how far the rabbit hole goes.

>>173062338
dub is bad enough
Like with Nier Automata the unsubbed lines are lines that were unsubbed in the original game. TV broadcasts and the voice clips in the street, things like that aren't subbed.

Who else waiting for torrents? I want it on PS3, as I haven't bought a PS4 yet. Even if I don't end up playing the bought copy, I still want it.

>>173062521

you do realize that Atlus was borderline dead before P4?

You know it's almost like some people in this thread don't want others to play P5, really makes you think.

If you don't know what "That guy was so metcha kakkoi!!" means then what are you doing playing this game?

Why don't they just activate the app when they are already where they want to be in the human world? Then they wouldn't have to fight their way.

>>173062673
Atlus wasn't exactly close to living after P4 either, which is why all the anime and spinoffs.

>>173062673
If you actually looked into the development P4 had issues because the team was too relaxed to take the project seriously at the start.

So just got the part were you have to ____why are you reading spoilers anon____. Can I _____you dont want to ruin the game for yourself, do you_________?

>>173062532
Oh, so it's nothing important that's unsubbed? Original it is.

>>173062831
It's condition only got stable after P4 anime, yeah. Probably because they spent their last money developing a game and couldn't afford advertising it in any way before that

>>173062721
They just didn't translate some lines and it was still in fucking Jap.

>>173062962
I'd say they go above and beyond with the subtitles.

There's a guy with a megaphone in Shibuya and they translated his SFX to say "Blare! Blare!" constantly so you know the important noise he is making.

>>173063026
Oh shit. I remember that happening with Devil Survivor.

>>173062939
I read spoilers because I've finished the game already so thanks for nothing

I've been playing it for the last 12 hours holy shit this game is great
but how the fuck do you efficiently increase your stats? There is NEVER time for it and pretty early in the game you get shit like "I need more guts to say that" Is it even possible to level it up before buffet?
I only just hit lvl 2 in knowledge and was answering every quiz question correctly and was studying 7 or so times.

>http://personacentral.com/ps-blog-atlus-usa-localized-persona-5/

>>173062879
They weren't relaxed. Atlus, for whatever reason, decided to pride itself in communication and a very lax hierarchy. Everyone helps with everything, anyone can work on anything. They talk about that every now and then in interviews and it's why we get interviews with new staff members every few months or so, who also point this out.
They didn't have proper development document on P4 because they all thought they were all on the same page, that their communication was good enough not to need it. That's not being relaxed, that's Atlus testing their dumb ideas.

>>173063326
>Need to play first run always behind, worrying about S.Links, stats and levels
>NG+ eliminates everything and trivializes it all
I feel like there might be a happier middle ground between these extremes but I'm no designer, what do I know?

Shadow Kamoshida on Hard mode is pretty fucking difficult.

Party is lvl 11, any tips besides get good?
Do I even bother with the sneaking away stuff because I can't attacking him or I'll fall behind on healing.

Also Slime is still based.

>>173063720
you can follow the no spoiler guide to max every social link and stat in your first playthrough for maximum efficiency. It's understandable since the game is very long and most people want to see everything in one go but i think ill just sit back and discover shit on my own, even if it means that i may miss stuff cos i don't want to constantly feel like i have to follow a checklist.

Do i need PS+ on ps4 for any online shit?

What are your thoughts?

>>173064136
I started using a guide but that requires you to beat the dungeon in 1 night for max efficiency and honestly, fuck that. I wouldn't recommend it.
I managed but it wasn't fun.
I'll use it for hints but I'm not going to follow it to the letter and panic about 100% or anything.

What's the general feeling about the thieve's guild data? Do any of you use that to make decisions?

>>173064247
It does feel like touched up google translate in quite a bit of places, but honestly I'd rather have a literal translation that has some machine aspect to it than the garbage """localizations""" that 8-4, NISA and Treehouse do.

This is the lesser evil in my eyes.

>>173064235
I ordered mine early enough, if this happens I'm done with them

Is anybody else's display not fitting to their TV? for some reason the edge of the Time display and the bottom of some subtitles is being cut off, this is the first time I've had this issue with a game.

>>173064438
You still get stuff like WASSUP PERSONA.

That's your TV's border, if it has a screen setting then you can change it from 16:9 to "full" or something similar.
If you're on PS4 then you can also correct it from the system settings.

Few and far between thankfully and par on course for Fatlus USA. Even the cafe dialogue with Goro, while skewed by turning plural rather than singular, is ultimately irrelevant since later as the story progresses it makes it obvious he was talking about his father specifically.

>>173064476
None of my PS4 games fit to my TV, but the fucker is like 10 years old and only supports 1080i, not even 1080p, so I assume it comes with the TV being shit.

Fuse Obariyon with tarunda and rakunda, keep both debuffs on. You should be able to get past the sneaking part by focusing on attacking, the fight is practically over when you succeed.

Any major performance issues with those?

>>173064393
for min maxing purposes it has always been optimal to beat a dungeon in one night as soon as it is open, obviously. The first dungeon was always the hardest to do in that regard because SP recovery is limited in that time but usually every other dungeon is easily doable in one night.

However i feel that from a story perspective it's a poor way to do things and as you said it makes it a lot more stressful. Besides if you followed the persona 4 guide for example you had like 3 months worth of time left over at the end and in golden it completely neglected the bike stuff (which wasnt very important but i digress)

I'm sure there all doable but it's probably not a fun way of doing it. I can spare the second night to make the game more enjoyable.

>>173065041
yeah its on the load menu

>>173064954

The first dungeon is beatable in one day, I've done it myself on the hardest difficulty, but any guide should give you two days for it since it is not easy or particularly fun.

I wouldnt worry too much about it. Generally if you follow a guide you may find that it just focuses on two or three arcanas at a time anyway and in my experience spending time with social links is almost always better than increasing a stat somewhere, buy books asap, do bulk stat buffs (like the rainy day challenge stuff in 4 or the games in 3) whenever they are available and always carry a matching persona for a social link you do. Only stuff like nanakos time limit can be a little annoying.

1: They believe that people will simply watch playthroughs instead of buying the game (which is, to an extent, true).

2: They believe that they'll lose more customers than they'll gain if this happens, which is nonsense

3: They believe they actually have the power to stop people from streaming.

It's just middle aged/elderly Japanese businessmen being Japanese.

You're missing the point.
Japan is a country that didn't suffer from the crisis quite as badly as literally everyone because they had less international business. Why? Because they still can't fucking talk english.

Even though it's not what you comes to the surface when you browse mongolian wood carving boards, the japanese are not caught up with the times in numerous areas; or perhaps it would be more accurate to say they haven't assimilated nearly as much as the rest of the west.

Personal DMCA strikes. Twitch support twitted about it and they are pretty much at the mercy of what atlus want to strike down or not

Which didn't seem much of an issue when all the japanese and american/translator streamers were playing the game back in september

This seems moronic and it's just going to hurt the reputation of atlus if they decide to keep doing this on twitch (as I said, it's understandable for youtube)

That's actually the plan for Atlus Japan to kill Atlus USA so they never have to deal with the US and EU market

>>173068417
Twitch support is lying out of their ass because they have no legal obligation to remove content based on Atlus's demands.
They're doing it because it's easier to comply with the big corporation than their content creators, which is nothing new.

Since you're working with the EU version already, could you do something for me? There should be a folder in USRDIR/event labeled e420 that should contain 15 .pak files. Can you upload those somewhere?

If you could get e_423_001.awb and e452_001.awb from USRDIR/ps3/sound too, I'd really appreciate it. No need to extract them. The Japanese version had unused extra lines in those files, so I'm curious if they kept them (or even translated them) in the localization too.

It's been a while since I had to dig through the actual .cpks, but if it's still like in the JP version, then the sound banks should be in PS3.cpk, IIRC, while the .pak files should be in Data.cpk. If you want to save time, feel free to prioritize whichever one you want, since it's not too urgent and just having them eventually would be enough.

And thanks for the help. Those files were one of the main things I wanted to look into in the localization, so this helps a lot.

Tae looks like the sort of girl that would just be gross to touch. Not even sweaty like how people kept pushing for Futaba, but just grimy and like garbage.

She would probably wash herself more frequently than Futaba, but she would also get more dirty. How dirty can you get sitting around playing video games all day unless you can't be bothered to go to the bathroom, or have some severe sweating problem?

Tae would probably think nothing of skipping a shower for a few days or just passing out at the office when she gets tired. She looks like someone who would like to party, so going out to a bar or club would just inundate her in the scent of liquor and cigarettes, not to mention any dancing activity. And of course, instead of properly wearing normal clothes under her jacket, it's just a short dress. Whatever grime is worked into her skin will just transfer to that once clean jacket, which probably hasn't been washed in a very long time.

Her skin would be sticky like a controller or mouse that's quite old, well-used, and never washed. If you tried to drag your nail across it, there would be much more resistance than what would be expected. Her hair is perfect for a lazy lifestyle, since even if it was severely tousled from sleeping on it, it wouldn't be noticeable.

PS3 anons, is the game good on there? Any noticeable differences from PS4? I have both PS3 and PS4 but im a cheap bastard and the PS3 version costs less

Can you find lockpicks in the palaces? I'm at 4/18 and stuck between my completionist attitude to get all the chests and my P4 learned attitude to tackle the dungeons in only one day each, (and i know if I beat it the chest is gone for good)

What about sp recovery, what's the best way to grind for that here? I remember yukiko's dungeon leaving me equally sp starved but i could grind chests for soul drops and snuff souls on the first floor. Anything similar here?

pretty much just lower res

Nope you have to make the lock picks and make coffee or curry to restore SP

Man this train network system is confusing as fuck. Thought I'd head back to the doctor to grab some healing/SP items before I go try and finish the 1st dungeon and I've got completely fucking lost in this labyrinth.

Going by the comparison vids, the differences seem to be minimal. PS4 version runs smoother, looks crisper, everything you'd expect. It also loads faster between transitions, but that's not that big of a deal for most. If you're worried that you're getting a gimped version of the game, it doesn't seem to be the case, unless you're a big graphics whore.

Every week there are six "Restore 5sp" items you can buy from vending machines.
The one outside the bath right near your cafe and the one at the school courtyard.
Those restock on Mondays.

PS3 is 720p 30 FPS, PS4 is 1080p 30 FPS.
Also PS3 has hardcoded longer loading times (not too subtantial though).
Otherwise they're identical, PS4 version has no Pro/Boost mode enhancements either since it's essentially a PS3 game just ported to PS4.

So if you don't mind 720p and slightly longer loading times, just go with PS3. Bonus points if you can pirate.

Damnit. Well I'm right before the chapel, looks like the halfway point anyway.

>>173070165
Literally just a lower res and some longer loading screens. Doesn't really ruin the game when you're used to P3+4 on the PS2.

one hour left on dl

...I kinda want to play other games instead now

And if anyone is curious exactly how PS3 version looks, here's a directfeed screenshot taken with CFW PS3 screenshot function.

Okay I'm unpacking data for you now.

I'm not getting P5 until tomorrow, how bad of an idea is it to play two Persona games at the same time? I was thinking about playing through P1 on my laptop when I can't be playing P5.

Nah he doesn't even have a dakimakura.
Wait can you get one during the game?

£50 what in the christ.

I'm just a poor neet atlus please

>>173071007
>having a daki

>>173070951
it'll probably be tedious and make you enjoy both less
why would you want to anyway?

>>173070732
Oh no, you mean you'd have to be helpful and encouraging to others? Well fuck that, that'd just suck so much time out of your 'sniffing your own farts' break, am I right?

>he bought a PS4

>>173070951
Pretty bad since they're story heavy games.
Honestly it's a fair advice, don't ever play more than 1 RPG at once.
Just finish P1 if you've already started, P5 won't be going anywhere. Otherwise if you haven't, just stick to P5 for the time being.
