SOS was pretty dead when it launched here. Fortunately it's not that big a deal.

Index made sure you cant import Arena.
Online doesn't really matter, to be honest. I'm fairly close to the end of the game, and I haven't used that SOS feature once.

No I meant Golden. Can't import Arena anyway :>@It comes out Febuary 22nd. And given that the online features are like that of Demon's Souls except with no co-op, I don't think you need to worry about THAT.

So I guess the online part isn't important, just thought it would be cool. I probably won't get this until about May or June, too many other stuff and already played Persona 4

Do the
carry over to New Game +?
If not, then isn't
a much better option?
Actually, even if
do carry over, wouldn't the above be better anyway? I've seen the cutscenes on YouTube, so I'm not fussed about seeing those.
items you can get from spending Christmas Eve with a girl
If not, then isn't
fusing a Yoshitsune with Debilitate
Actually, even if
those items
The items don't carry over, but a date with Naoto also gets you a costume that you keep on NG+.
Don't worry buddy, Arena is turd anyway.
Unless you want it for the gameplay, in which case... Unlucky bro.

Blazblue is really good if you can tolerate the outrageous animu stylings. In the first game, it seemed like they were parodying themselves, but later stuff because full-on anime madness.
EDIT: Also, I'm going to recommend DOA5. It's 3D, but fuck, it's amazing.
MK and SF4 are the only 2d fighters I found to be any fun this generation.
Amazing is pushing it, but seconded. It's quite good. We spent a long time in the OT.

Damn, I was feeling like I'd never get caught for dating 6 girls at the same time. And then... Valentine's day happened. Way to make me feel like an asshole .
.We sure did.
I loved it. Favourite fighter this gen, by far. It has flaws, but
EDIT: I just realised that I really need to stop swearing so much. My language on here is becoming frighteningly close to how I sound in real life. I used to completely avoid the swears, but it seems they've seeped through somehow! :S

Err, where? I'd use voice if I had consistent Internet (I'm traveling).
He has a set schedule, but he'll show up at the Junes or outside the Gas Station at night on those days. At 2nd, 4th and 5th rank I think you can only chat to him at night.

Just encountered
in
. Beat it without too much trouble; it only ever cast Megidolaon. Between my party being around level 70, Rise randomly giving me good buffs pretty often, and keeping my Hit/Evasion up, the fight didn't last too long. It helps that the Persona on my MC has Megidoloan and a 90+ (I forget exactly) Magic stat.
the Grim Reaper
Heaven
Me too! Hell Biker gives them, I think. You can also trying evolving a resist fire skill.
More accurately, his RANK UP event shows up at Night. So you still need to be checking for the day for non-rank up events.
Almost up to December now.
Namatame was tough for me on Normal with the MC at level 58, but I managed to beat him on the third attempt by having Chie and Yukiko dead when he charmed all three other party members. I couldn't get a Persona with Makarakarn, so I made do with 3 magic mirrors.

You followed a guide or something? What's your secret?
No, I actually didn't follow a max s link guide (i did a lot of save /reload spam for the Aeon/Jester links because they were new, though). Since I've played through the game before I had a good handle on what needed to be done by when. I still had about half of Kanji, Ai, and Naoli to go when I hit January.
Honestly, as long as you are making sure to do SOMETHING productive whenever you get free time (and finishing dungeons in one day), I don't see it as being that difficult. Also, once you get your stats to lv 5 (diligence lv 3), go ahead and pull fortunes at night (if you can't do tower/devil/hiero/justice - I was done with all of them in November).

I drew another thing
Haha, this is cool! You have a very interesting style.
I don't know if you're open to constructive critique, but I'll give some anyway! It's all good, but I'd recommend you work on your hand shapes a bit. I learned loads about drawing hands just from looking at Soejima's art, so that's a really good starting place.
I think all this discussion about drawing has inspired me to draw something Persona-related soon. I think I'd like to take another bash at it.
I never thought you would be the person to say this such a thing. Sell me on DOA5!
I adore Blazblue, but I also love the animu genre. I have been meaning to catch up on those games. I only played the first one, but something about the lore catches my interest.

I'm in the Secret Lab and I'm wondering which Black Frost-tier persona I should be after next. I've maxed Yukiko, Dojima, and Yosuke (S-Links, that is).
Edit: my MC is level 52, by the way.

Yep, been a fan of DOA since the Dreamcast days. I played DOAU, DOA4 and DOA5 for hours online.
It's easily the most fluid fighter, with a seamlessness between moves which just isn't seen anywhere else. The move lists are gigantic, which allows for a ton of options, and means that getting to grips with a new character is relatively simple, because most strings yield some manner of combo.
I'm also a big fan of Ninja Gaiden, so the fact that Hayabusa is in the game is a big plus for me (Particularly that a lot of his moves have been carried over from those games). On top of that, DOA5 has three Lotus Juice (Rapper from Persona 3) songs in it (Though he only actually raps in two of them), and they are excellent.
DOA5's art design is also stupendous, with a mostly toned down over-sexuality and a new art style which is somewhere between the old manga-inspired look and a realistic look. Whatever it is, it looks excellent. The graphics are incredibly impressive, with probably the best looking characters of the generation. Kasumi's mesh is a massive 65,000 polygons (Compared to 20,000 on Jun from TTT2):
As ever, my only complaint with the visuals is that the costume design isn't as good as Soejima's stuff, haha.
It has a large amount of single player content and a solid amount of unlockable costumes and there are something like 25 characters. There's a lot of DLC available but outside of the first pack, a lot of it is overpriced and a bit guff really.
It's coming out for the Vita in March, so that might be a good time to give it a look.
I think I stuck with Black Frost throughout that whole dungeon, haha!
I did her S.Link every chance I had and maxed it out by early November.
I think I did too, come to think of it. Damn thing was so good. >_>;

Annnnd.... done!
Finally defeated
Technicalities:
Is it me, or does Lucifer suck a bit? Considering the requirements to fuse him, you'd expect him to have some damage-dealing powers. Brave blade didn't seem that powerful, and he only has megidolaon on the almighty side. Victory cry does not seem that useful, by the end of the game it seemed hard to deplete SPs. Helel was pretty cool, though.
Side question: did hiimdaisy's persona 4 comic stop before the end of the game? Last one I can find is about
Now onto actually playing P3. I think that in spite of GAF's threat of suckage, I will play P3P. I kinda want to play with the female MC.
Finally defeated
Izanami. I ended up playing most of the game with Chie and Kanji, because they were cool, and Naoto, because she was overpowered. Would have played with Teddie if it wasn't for the fact he was ice-based.
I am not sure how I missed the attendant thing at the beginning of the game. I guess after 80 hours, you forget a lot about what happened at the beginning.. :/
Does the special epilogue you get when you finish the hollow forest consist of the entire part when you come back to Inaba? If it is, it's a pretty major thing to miss. I liked the new portraits a lot, especially since they were not refurbished from old portraits. New haircuts were ace, (especially the girls'), except for Kanji's.

teddie growing up a body. I see there are youtube videos, but I don't think I want to see them dubbed

His base stats are somewhat weak (except Magic) for his level. His Agility and Luck in particular are pretty low for a level 93 Persona. If you had other Personae with stats enhanced through Shuffle Time, that may be why.
Just sketched this up, and figured I'd share it with y'all before I go for my tea:
Quick story behind this: One of the many, many things I love in P3 and P4 is that after you spend time with someone, they bye in a way which corresponds with the S Link level. In vanilla P4, I found Naoto pretty boring outside of her S Link, but I really loved the way her actress delivered the enthusiastic "Goodbye!". I always pictured Naoto running off home happily.
Such a merry little game.

Let's get equal.
English people and their tea I tell ya.
I love tea myself D:
In regards to the pic, it's nice and yeah, Naoto only seemed interesting in the SL. Probably ran home and wrote in her journal or whatever. "Today, MC Talked to me!!!!"
Different kind of tea. I hate tea as in the drink. The tea I was referring to is just the second meal in the day (Dinner in America, or something?).
EDIT: I just realised, I said hate. No idea why I said that. What I meant to say is that I don't drink it.
Thank youuuuuu!
