I didn't plan to but I might just for the heck of it. Also the protagonist being silent in these games really makes me wonder why they don't just allow people to create their own character.
I think this is for a couple reasons:

1. Soejima(the art director) likes designing a specific character to be the MC. They're supposed to fit within the game and have their own style.
2. The protags, though silent, do actually have their own personalities. You can tell from their dialogue choices. So they're designed to be a bit more than just a silent character.

Also plz finish the Nanako and Dojima links. Two of the best in the games.

ALSO also, watch Gurren Lagann you jerks.

Stop shitting on my team. Start shitting on my finger.
Gonna see another specialist tomorrow.

Wish me luck that my 10+ year hunt for a diagnosis will come to an end. Maybe.

I don't get my hopes up anymore at this point, but you never know.

I'm ok with this. Country spec guys aren't awesome. Not this type of country spec anyway
Oh really? See I would picture a country spec Aussie as a rugged, strapping dude with godly facial hair and shoulders you could park a bus on.

Figured your parsnips would be well and truly buttered.

I supposed. Sometimes it just feels like most of these options are so neutral that anyone could be saying them. :p

I'm at rank 9 for both so almost done!

Also ahhhhh at this nurseeeeeee

Haha yeah, the P4 protag is more of a blank slate than either of the P3 protags. They both have pretty clearly defined personalities.

And that nurse being the Devil arcana is too perfect.

All the country dudes I've met were unkempt and unwashed. And that's just gross.

Okay Acid I'm just maxing out Nanako and Rise quickly.

Then imma start working on Marie. Is the dungeon hard?
I wouldn't call it hard but it is hot bullshit. Basics of how it works:

Your SP halves after every fight. All of your normal equipment is taken away, you find temporary weapons and armor in treasure chests. All of your items aren't usable. You have to pick up specific SP and HP recovery items in the dungeon. You can collect Branches to warp back to the entrance to pay the Fox to recover your SP too.

Best way to mitigate the SP crap is to have a Persona with Spell Master andCool Breeze plus Rise's ability "Rise's Song." I think I used Trumpeter for it, taught him Spell Master with a skill card.

Watching the Red Bull Soapbox Race on TV, peeps dressed in wacky costumes and elaborately adorned yet rickety as fuck go-karts getting smashed to smithereens.

Looks like fun! I'd love to give it a go.

Yeah, that's got to be a deal breaker. Nothing more off-putting than poor personal hygiene.

It's not just that it's disgusting, it says a lot about a person if they can't even be bothered to look after themselves properly.

Exactly! So no more country guys for me. I like a bit of grooming

What tiddums said.

Lol my phone has tiddums as a word now

What are your skype usernames? I'll add you.


Oh what I wouldn't give for Wonder Balls to exist again. Those things used to fascinate me.

Who is Anna Faith, if you don't mind me asking? She looks stunning but I have no idea who she is.

Who knows what surprises a Wonder Ball could hide.

Yummy Nestle chocolate, with CANDY SHAPES INSIDE?!

*Stares out of window with look of quiet contemplation*

Oh I wonder, wonder what's in a Wonder Ball...

Hey Acid, is there a persona you would recommend for Heaven? I'm kind of just grinding in there at the moment and I'm 55(playing on normal) and I don't want to waste too many days. I'm on day one and I'll probably beat the sub boss before resting.

Niece wants Frozen stuff for her bday present. I go to the Disney store, all Frozen stuff sold out. I go to the Lego store, they don't have the rights to make Frozen Legos yet. I go to target and Walmart and all I can find is a Frozen eating mat. Sorry niece, that's all you getting!

Nothing stops the Frozen train.

Yeah it sucks. My friend has been talking about wanting an Olaf plushie and her birthday is coming up. I pretty much gave up on the Disney Store right away and actually went all the way to Disneyland with the hope that the Emporium had some in stock. They didn't.

I can only assume this is because you've maxed the Doj.

I forgot about that Nurse. Crap I'm going to go through the endurance run again aren't I D: VINNY :'(

Years ago I went to the Red Bull FlugTag event in Portland. Same concept, but they build "flying machines", I say that very loosely and fly off a ramp into the bay. Some incredibly creative people it's fantastic.

I was only like 16 or something I'd love to build one with a group of friends.

I got bored and started watching old Goosebumps episodes on Netflix, and I came across an episode called Click. It's about a kid who gets a universal remote that controls the universe and ends up abusing its power. That sounds really, really, familiar, and this was made back in the 90's

Yup! I'm done Dojima, Rise, Nanako and Daisuke. Rank 9 for Kanji, Yosuke and Yukiko and working on Marie. :D

The nurse is crazy :lol I keep turning her down but I'm tempted to see what would happen if I agreed.

Hmmm, I think I was using Trumpeter by then. Otherwise maybe Thor or Tamlin would be good.

Have you been going through the past dungeons to fight the optional bosses? You can access them by talking to your teammates in the TV hub world(ex talk to Kanji to go back to the bath house). Benefit of this is Golden Hands spawn more frequently and you're pretty much guaranteed a level per fight because they drop so much XP. And you're a high enough level that you can breeze through these dungeons for some easy levels and optional boss fights.

For Golden Hands it's useful to have a Persona that knows an Almighty spell like Megido, Megidola, or Megidoloan. So you can either fuse one for yourself or just bring Naoto along. TaoTie has Megido, Trumpeter has Megidoloan. Here's a pretty good reference for fusion recipies!

What team are you rolling with btw?

Ahhh okay I'll look at the fusing options. I thought Black Frost would still be good enough, heh.

I was considering it but I just left it since I've been encountering quite a few golden hands still. Maybe I'll go look again, Rise's dungeon had lots of them. I usually can kill one or two but maybe I should find a faster way so I can get all three or four when they appear.

I'm using Kanji, Yosuke and Yukiko while MC is rocking black frost ATM.

Black Frost is such a bro. It pained us when we couldn't use him anymore.

Get 'em all!

From what I remember, it's...worth(?) it? There's probably a laugh or several to be had, barely remember it. The nurse I mean.

Even more Golden Hands spawn when you go through the dungeons a second time :D if you can come up with a method to reliably kill them you'll gain tons of levels.
