Holy crap, do NOT get Insta-kill with Ryuji if you ever want to ambush again for the rest of the game. Just leave him at rank 6 forever.
Silver lining: if you thought ambushes made this game too easy, enjoy never having them again.
One of his confidant abilities is a chance to instantly kill the enemies if you ambush them.Wait... what? I'm not sure what you're saying it does.
Didn't get an answer on my persona team question so I don't know how well I'm supposed to be doing on that front but as I mentioned a few pages back high pixie has pretty much been my go too. Having element under its belt except death. That way my other personas can focus on physical/death, buffsand debuffsInto the third palace. I feel as I'm running into the same problem as Persona 4. Things are getting considerably harder, but it's solely due to me not knowing how to fuse good Personas.
It's incredibly frustrating having 8 different element types, and a hard time getting certain elements. Even if you grab a Persona with a rare one, you end up with zero endurance or something, and getting nearly 1-2 shot by bosses / big mobs.
I'm not ready to give up yet, but the fusing system is frustrating.
Ooo I'll be using this tipGet one of those special fusion personas from random chests, when you fuse them with another persona they will grant you spells of every element.

The party member Personas look so much better than in previous games (of the three I've seen). And I don't mean in fidelity as much as I do aesthetically.
Eikichi/Michel from P2 is my favourite too. Also, let's not forget Katsuya from Eternal Punishment, who is also cool. Ryuji is pretty good so far though, definitely like him more than both Junpei and Yusuke (his Persona is amazing, so that certainly helps).

I'm loving the game and its writing, but I wish it would make up its mind when it comes to social issues.
It makes a huge deal about the pedophile male teacher, but has no issues making your female home teacher (and other adults) dateable, because hey mutual agreement changes everything and makes it morally right, I guess. It also shows men harassing Ann as a gross thing, but then plays Ryuji and Morgana trying to look under her skirt for laughs during a scene lmao (this is extra annoying too because otherwise, Morgana comes off as a very polite little boy with an innocent crush on her).
And that's not even touching on that awful, extremely unnecessary, homophobic scene in Shibuya.
It's like the writers have become better about this stuff with the years but then remember the game is still anime so might as well have this tired garbage in the game anyway.
Oh well, at least there don't seem to be any fat comic relief characters.
What the hell, why is that even a thing... Is it only active when he's in your party at least? I want to finish his s link because I like him, but damn.
Comparing modern Persona with P2 in terms of characters and writing in general is just unfair.

Atlus sure do have a thing for black cats, that's for sure - Digital Devil Saga 1 & 2, Raidou 1 & 2 and now Persona 5.
So, I'm not bothering with locked treasures (waisting a day making a lock pick seems stupid). Am I making a big mistake?
You finished the game yet? What did you think?!

Beat the game last night, impressions:
- best persona game in regards to combat system
- best MC in the series.
- wonderful cast.
- character development is wonderful.
- Morgana <3
- story is good and entertaining throughout but i wouldn't call it the best in the series.
My only minor nitpick is the lack of Jpop catchy song, otherwise fantastic ost.
Question:
So if the inner monologue speech bubble tells me that my bond with a confidant won't progress just yet I should do something else with my day, yeah? They'll unlock periodically with the story?
I'm just a little worried, because story critical Igor is at rank 5, and Mishima is all the way up at rank 6, most of my OG crew are still at rank 3 though, and I'm just in the third palace.
To reiterate, should I be engaging with confidants more regularly, or only when prompted that it'll actually progress the bond?
How long did it take you to beat it? 122 hrs for me.
"You're a psychopath... WHO BAKES FOR MONEY!"
These cinema movies are fucking hilarious lol

Just got to the weapon vendor for the first time.... Holy shit I need more money lol
The whole crew are debating on (Pre-Dungeon 2 Spoilers)and all I'm thinking about is how the days are passing and how much I'll need to pay back for my two late DVD rentals.the severity of the artist's crimes and how he's plagiarising his students' work
I think I'm investing in the wrong parts of the game so far.
But that was in P4 though. Just as this game's party Personas are rogues and thieves, P4's are Shinto gods and mystics.That and the Personas' back stories tie into the narrative as a whole very well too. They did a lot of thinking on that front.

It means you don't have enough points with that character to level it up. You need to hang out with hem to get enough points to progress the confidant to the next rank. Always make sure you have a persona of the right arcana while doing stuff with your confidants as it boosts the points you get. Also try and answer the dialogue questions correctly.

It only applies to enemies well below your level. It never comes up unless you're grinding or in Mementos.
I was 26 days late because I rented them at a time where I was railroaded several days through free times in my room, by the time I was free other options were open. At the time I couldn't afford the late fee so they did a one time waive.
OH FUCK I NEED TO RETURN THOSE!

How exactly do you want a DVD? I can't for the life of me find the spot to do it, even with the thing that should let me.
Can someone tell me where the job stand is in Shibuya? I found it by accident once AND THEN NEVER AGAIN.
