What am I in for?
>>746034603A GTA thread died for this
Bloat
>>746034603Fun characters, abysmal dogshit story.
makotos fat ass
>>746034652Good
>>746034603The WORST version of Persona 5.You should play the classic 2015 P5 release instead.
>>74603460310 hours of fun, 90 hours of boredom and 20 hours of agony
>>746034603Fun but shallow characters (all of them); cozy atmosphere; a good version of the press-turn combat; horrible controls and camera in dungeons; better dungeons than 3 and 4; a story that manages to be pretty much the same as P4, but more drawn out and padded but still worse.Still pretty good, if you've got the time for it.
It's got great QoL over the prior games but it is piss easy and is only ok in every artistic aspect. I guess I can praise the dungeon design at least
>>746034603babby's 2nd JRPG
>>746034603Hoping you could play as Makoto so you could self insert as her...
>>746035062>play the worse version with less free time days
>>746034603KINO
>>746034603A decade-old rehash somehow tripling the sales of their latest flop.
>>746034603Finished last month. It's a worse game than P4 and it overstays its welcome way too much
>>746034603A slog after the first dungeon
>>746034603Royal has a box of game breaking items that you can unlock immediately, and you can summon lvl 90 personas right off the bat. >just dont open the box or summon the personasSure lol
>the game is too eas-ACK!
>>746037012You're the kind of guy who would rape and kill kids if you thought you could get away with it.>IF YOU DON'T STOP ME, IT'S YOUR FAULT!!!
>>746037957>rape analogy
>>746034603Milf hunting simulator
>>746034603It's a good game. Certainly a lot better than almost anything the West has put out in the last 10 years.
>>746034603It's Inception+high school chad simulator+four niggas in a row JRPG combat+ren'py VN without the gobbos or sex+00s Adult Swim anime simulator+friend simulator+Japan simulator+extremely light Zelda/Tomb Raider/Resident Evil dungeon exploration/puzzle-solving
>>746038707I don't get why persona is called "social sim" there's 0 simulation in it. It's just, choice certain activity or someone else to go out > watch cutscene with some random shit > back home. Is no more of a social simulator than a companion quest in any other game. An actual simulator social would be Sims
>>746038076>it's ok to rape this game because the option is there. Just look at what it's wearing.
>>746037747>using makoto Found your problem
>>746039009You're trying to start a semantics argument that I frankly don't even care enough to engage in.
>>746038707Yeah that's right on the moneyAtlus should so an +18 rated persona to add the sex scenes to VN part of the game
>>746034603HARU IS THE KILLER
>>746035871you didn't play the game if you didn't play the japanese PS3 version
>>746034603Best JRPG of all time.
>>746036460>somehowIt released on a modern console and was later ported to everything. Original game came out fro the ps3 in fucking 2016 (in Japan, 2017 elsewhere)
>>746037747I wish that there were more fights like this. This was the most fun I had in that game

Play Persona if you want gameplay Play SMT if you want a rich story
>>746034603Play on the second hardest difficulty, the hardest one is actually the easiest
>>746034603soejima trash
>>746034603fucking your teacher and your doctor
>>746034603One of the most overrated and juvenile games ever made, only people who like this are under 20 years old.>The Good-It has stylish menus and UI-It has a good soundtrack, the music is cozy when you're exploring and kinda a banger during combat.-If you love highschool and want to LARP as some popular cool kid with friends this is the game for you, you will get your harem, you will get high grades, a cat that is obsessed with you and you will kick them evil adult asses.>The Bad-Gameplay is shit, straight up has no depth at all, the combat is easy and repetitive, barely any enemy variety, rpg elements are cringe, e.g u increase reading skills by reading a book or charisma by showering but the ways you do those is by clicking x to adv text, so nothing interactive really. outside of dungeons there's nothing to interact with besides menus, there's 1 minigame but its shit and boring.-Level design is linear and uninspired, dungeons are boring to explore, there's nothing to find, no creative mechanics whatsoever.>The Ugly-The writing is cringe, its padded out with gossip dialogue that adds nothing of value, just more text, characters are shallow and one dimensional, villain constantly gets rewritten, the heroes contradict themselves, pacing is shit, its pretentious as well in sense it presents meaningful themes but explores them in superficial and dumb way.-Side quests are all filler-It barely innovates from Persona 4, so essentially its the same game with extra steps.Overrated as FUCK.4/10
>>746035871>>746035062This is wrong, P5 Royal is better mechanically>reason to use gun mechanics>more sidegames and stuff to unlock>useful Devil Confidant>more time to use the character at night, even if stuck indoors (objectively the worst aspect of P5)>more Persona>bonus fights for mechanics training and strategy>Merciless is actually funBUTThe opening scene flows a little better in Persona 5And the 3rd Palace boss fight is more logicalI would recommend watching a let's play of the opening fight so you understand what's being added, THEN playing Royal, after that though most of the integration felt natural.
>>746034603140 hours of characters repeating the same dialogue and a couple of decent dungeons.
>>746037747Why are the heroes such posers, look how they stand and act, who the fuck finds this impressive? cringe game
>>746034603Fucking- An a 3/4 Japanese, but she is blonde and stunning like an half Sweden-American Girl- An autistic girl, fan of Sonic, with a real big ass enveloped in a black skin tight latex pants- A schizo with double personality who wants to do the splits on your Persona-Cock- Your cousin: Konata 2010 but with more trauma- A corpo queen with a big heart and a evil bodyfriend- Abby from NCIS- Tomie's younger sister.- Two loli twins dubbed by Roger Smith- The sister of the autistic one, still virgin, because she is married at job... Like Kaoru from Dame Dame franchise- A gypsy, but white, white and clean, gypsy- A 40's old alcholic jouranlist.- A cat is fine too.The better thing and there is no bro like Da Man and Yosuke: your male friends are a blonde punching ball; a refined artist discarded from JoJO part 4 and an homosexualo a bit tsundere.Yes, there is a story about cancel rape culture... liberty... tyranny and a bit, but just a bit of homosexuality. But no one cares... Really, no one cares about the story.
Reminder
>>746034603a decent but entirely too long JRPG. do not use the busted ass DLC personas though they're entirely too strong and you can summon them for free once from the compendium
>>746034603
>>746045776Izanagi-no-Okami can one-shot the Reaper with the right setup.
>>746045418This list is bullshit, FF XII is a glorified single player MMO with a shitty story and boring gameplay, it shouldn't be anywhere close to that list
>>746035420persona does not use press turn, one more is not press turn. you are not losing multiple actions for hitting a null or reflect, nor are you negating entire enemy turns by doing the same.
>>746043530why? how? porque?
>>746046976It quadruples (or something like) the damage of attacks that strike weaknesses. This goes both for your party and for the enemies, this allows you to one shot pretty much any random enemy. You are supposed to cover your weaknesses anyway so it's more of a buff to you than to the enemies.
>>746034603make sure you get marukis confidant all the way up before he leaves so you dont miss out on some extra content
>>746034603Disappointment.Jews in Japan controlling the narrative.Hypocrisy from idiot left leaning kids.Double standards.A weak ending.A cucked coffee shop owner that gets cucked 4 times in the game.It's an alright game but it's pretty apparent their being forced to implement shit into these games now
>>746034603Repitive combat with little depth. Seriously its just use whatever element the enemy is weak to and you get to keep going infinitely and just shit all over enemies, an enemy could have the potential to 1 shot you and you would still be able to steamroll it with the right setup of personas and not get hit once. Tons of people clear entire dungeons in 1 fucking day without going back to the real world restore their HP and MP.Play it for the cozy highschool LARP to make up for your shitty actual highschool experience if you want but the actual gameplay and running through endless hallways that look the same is fucking boring
>>746034603Music is amazing
>>746034603>What am I in for?10 straight years of infinite seething as you can tell by this thread.
>>746045418Typical pleb shitter list, but why is Chrono Cross so high?
>>746034603Repetitive dialogue.
>>746034603Imagine an RPG, but every 5 minutes is interrupted by the most tedious, trite high school anime you can imagine.
>>746034603Sex
What do I need to make sure to do so that I don't miss the Royale content? I heard you could miss it if you make a few mistakes
>>746049000>What do I need to make sure to do so that I don't miss the Royale content?Max out the new confidants the game shoves into your face.
>>746049000Get Councilor up as high as you can. Justice rank 8 or 9 I think is optional but try that. And then Sumire's up to rank 4 I think.
>>746049073How the fuck am I supposed to know what's "new" if I haven't played it? lmao???
>>746049146Sorry.Max out the relationship ranks with the characters the game shoves into your face after specific story beats because they want you to understand they are very important.
>>746049102Why the fuck did you just spoil the Sumire reveal for him.
>>746049102>Spoiled the twist just like thatAnon...
>>746049102>SumireYou're brown.
>>746034603Cat gyat
>>746044015>I would recommend watching a let's play of the opening fight so you understand what's being added,This doesn't make sense to me, what do you mean?
>>746051247He's an autistic fool
>>746034603Gender transition
>>746043959>-If you love highschool and want to LARP as some popular cool kid with friends this is the game for you, you will get your harem, you will get high grades, a cat that is obsessed with you and you will kick them evil adult asses.Made me lol, brutal summary
>>746044015>>useful Devil ConfidantWhat did they change?It seemed to work the exact same way I remember.
>>746052417In both games her confidant is based around reducing security level, but in the original it's based on calendar days which most players found useless because they tried to blitz through each palace in a single day. In Royal her confidant reduces security level when you find safe rooms and ambush enemies, and her max rank allows ambushes at any security level.
>>746034603A really fuckable cat.
>>746045418>Undertalelol, that is barely a game
>>746043247lol okay? The point is that Metaphor is getting mogged in current FY sales by a decade-old Persona 5 rehash.This isn’t even a cumulative sales thing. It’s outselling Metaphor right NOW.If that’s not proof of Metaphor revew scores being utterly astroturfed than I don’t know what is.
Metaphor is better than your favorite game.
Metaphor is shit and makes P5R look like a masterpiece (but its shit too)
They really manage to make you hate the first boss, but none of the rest are as personal until the second to last.None of them are bad, just not someone you absolutely hate.Royal is a better game overall, but the OG ending is WAY fucking better than Royal, holy shit they fumbled that one.
>>746034603Meeting your wife
>>746034714What makes it dogshit? I got to the painter/artist world before my PS4 broke on my last playthrough. I was thinking about restarting on PC but if the story is bad I'll just skip it.
>>746055287The writing repeats the most insignificant nothing statements fifty times, but major plot points rely on you remembering a dozen different things that all happened 100 hours ago and weren't commented on until the reveals.
>>746056229>The writing repeats the most insignificant nothing statements fifty timesYou mean like how its bad to do bad things and its time to fess up to your crimes kind of stuff?
>>746034603A massive fall off in quality after the first dungeon.
