Back to HK-47's concern, I guess the characters repeating themselves make a little sense, concerning while our playtime is minutes and hours while they're dealing with entire days and weeks. It still borderlines on Metal Gear levels of re-explanation though.

...which proves the real killer and that Mitsuo was merely a copycat as I surmised. Still, we're back to square one as to who the true murder is.
Kanji: Gray Fox.
Chie: Whuh?
Kanji: Senpai, the murderer is Gray Fox!
Yosuke: Wrong game, Yarn-boy.

I don't get why her warping you out for free (not until like, November) is so awesome when you can just warp out for free anyway on most levels of the dungeons in P3 already.

Well I got just got, I guess, middle of the road ending. That was just... bleh.
Looking at a guide (because I'm not skipping through all those cutscenes a bunch of times trying random conversation answers) it seems like it's a fairly arbitrary break between what I just got and the good ending.

I think I got the first four conversation choices right and then picked "Why he's scared" instead of "We're missing something". Both of which such seem like they'd be questions about digging deeper and trying to get to the truth, but whatever. At least Nanako didn't stay dead. I'm assuming that's what happens if you just chuck him right in the TV? Thus causing the saddest videogame ending ever.

I just beat
I've already put a crazy amount of time into the game considering I've only been playing for a little over a week.
Rise's and Teddy's Shadows.

I totally agree with you - I think the localization team could have done a little better with that dialog.
And yep, you're right.
I finally joined the P4 party (had to finish Rogue Galaxy first). This game is different from most RPGs I played. It is a good different though, I'm not far yet
but it is really good.
Any tips at this time, besides stocking up on Goho-M's?
I just entered Yukiko's castle after getting Chie's Persona

Make sure to keep tabs on how much SP you have. It can run out quickly in the first dungeon when you don't have any quick way to restore SP. Also make sure to keep track of the weaknesses of your Personae, and fuse often.
You should stock up on healing items when you have a chance (especially because you don't have any good healing Persona this early in the game), but making sure to stock up on Goho-M's takes priority on that, and money is a bit tight early on.

You should complete the dungeons sooner than later, that way your party becomes more readily available for S-Links. SP consumption is more of an issue in this game than most SMT titles so try to get Invigorate early adn start all your battles with that Persona equipped, even if it sucks you can just switch it out.

If you're not averse to guides, you want to try to get invigorate as soon as possible.
You can game the system to get a spell that gives you all your SP back after every turn, but I can't remember it off hand. I did it myself and posted about it a while ago.

Pay attention to the fusion forecast. It's worth the annoyance of checking 2 days at a time for the free abilities and stuff. It's also an ok 'reminder' of what the game suggests your level should at least be.
Ugh... I'm stuck in 2nd to last dungeon, after all the big story reveals... I have no willpower to figure out where the hell the boss is, I've been wandering around leveling up for 15 minutes at a time for almost a month now 
I had the "okay, this game should be wrapped up now" just before the dungeon and since I know there is another one, and I need to do more grinding... ugh!! Just like what happened in P3.

Jump in the hole or for back the the original 2nd floor and go to the place that was sealed off.

They're just for show. They probably didn't want to bother coding a Persona that didn't have stats or something like that.
Been replaying this with newgame+ and trying expert mode.
Having a blast surprisingly enough. Not having to worry about social stats=awesome. I'm pretty impressed with the VA in this game, some awkward lines here and there, but for the most part the VA is so good. You can totally tell they had fun with the script and were totally into their characters, specially Yuri Lowenthall with Yosuke.
Although the newgame+ takes out level restrictions for Compendium, I don't summon a persona that's higher level than mine. Expert mode doesn't seem that much different from Normal, the PC prices stay the same, only difference is that enemies hit harder.

I've been doing a new game+ on Hard mode as well. It is a lot fun playing through a second time, especially without having to worry about grinding up my courage and expression so that people will talk to me. Here's hoping that I can max all Social Links by the end of the game (I got about half of them done on my first run).
However, I have taken some advantage of the ability to summon higher leveled Persona from the Compendum, such as pulling out a Null-Fire Persona before I fought against Shadow Yukiko.
I'm finding the game somewhat easier overall, but I think much of that comes down to my experience. I had no clue what I was doing early in my first playthrough, but now I'm pretty solid on fusion knowledge and battling skills. Plus, I'm actually controlling my party members this time (I left them on AI control all the way up to the True Ending last time).
They should've make the cellphone play a bigger part in the game overall. It would've been a nice way to get in contact with the s.links characters without having to look around for them. Also, for fusion it could help you know what's the fusion forecast without having to go to the velvet room from time to time, I mean ffs Margaret can call you but you can't call her!?

Seriously. I hope you can call friends in Persona 5. The biggest place that I felt this was with your non-party S.Link's over vacation. At least your party members still hang out around town, but your other school friends are just completely gone for all of summer vacation.
Yep, hated this. Heck even in P3 non-teammates s.links called you from time to time to hang out. It's very rare when that happens in P4, and by rare I mean one time in the whole game?KuwabaraTheMan said:
Maybe they wanted to drive the whole country side thing, and not a lot of people have cellphones... I guess.

I think Ai called me twice during summer break, which is more than every other friend from school combined.
Seriously, Kou and Daisuke are supposed to be my bros and I can't even see them all summer?

The Velvet Room exists between between physical and mental reality. So I guess saying she just exists the character's mind is probably incorrect. Likely, she can move between both realms.Tamanon said:

The state of the velvet room depends on the mind of its guest(s).
So it's more like the MC's Imaginary limo than Igor's limo.
Though that brings up a question. If you press redial after Liz or Marge "call" you, what happens?
And yes Liz exists.
If you choose fight Margaret, she'll mention that Elizabeth left the Velvet Room to help the P3 protagonist.

They better do it, and have some of the earlier characters(preferably from all four games) return.
I'll only be satisfied once my party can consist of Katsuya, Aigis, Nate, and Teddie at the same time.

On a slightly related note, I remember the first time I played through that segment of the game. I ranked up a couple of S.Links, went through the finals, decided not to save on the 2nd (why bother, I don't plan on stopping anytime soon)...and then I messed up a dialogue choice and got the bad ending.
When I realized what happened, I just sat there dumbfounded.
