Sorry I don't want to derail the thread but Not sure I understand what you mean...
you mean the songs are not exactly the same as in the game ?

Fighting games made it easy for me ;P
Yeah screw that one, had to reload a bunch of times. I play fighting games and it was bullshit.
like I said, newbies. Even on a casual Sunday morning level I can at least try to use the analog stick for move inputs instead of sinking to dpads-only >.>

Do it in one swift motion, if you're having trouble buy the cheat book.

so like Possessed by Disease is the clean vocals version only, the additional vocals versions (THIS CANNOT CONTINUE) are not on the OST
analog stick makes it harder though ...to do consistently and quickly
gotta get some of that QIsTopTier lessons on thumb dpad use for fighting games. But either way, thats why the cheat book exists. And you want that anyway...for the fucking Dice Game
I gave up on it, and I'll try it again in a few months when I do my platinum run. I kept messing up the final combo and not getting the very last diagonal input. I just couldn't get it to roll off correctly for some reason, even after 20+ reloads. Last move failed, every single time.

Playing NG+ and forgot how much of an asshole Sojiro was lol

Think I'll start tonight
Yeah I wasn't sure how much of NG+ I would really do.
Then I was at the end of the game again.
So are social skill levels the only things that carry over to NG+? Also, for the confidant trophy, do I need to have all of them at rank 10 in the same playthrough or can I rank up half of them in my first game and then just focus on the other ones on my NG+ for the trophy?

To be honest, I was surprised I didn't have more trouble with Power Intuition, because I suck at fighting games and can barely do a proper Ryu fireball. Flubbed the first stage once, but after that I was okay. I did use the book, though. Other people have mentioned that you should roll your thumb over the relevant inputs (i.e. roll from down over to right on the d-pad for the first stage); I personally find it easier to sort of slide my thumb instead, like I'm swiping diagonally from the down button to the right button on the d-pad. For the last stage, I just swipe right-down-left in a semi-circle path and the swipe immediately to the right, and I got it pretty quickly.
What used to trip me up a lot in fighting games (and trips me up still) is that I can actually do the d-pad motion right, but was hitting the kick/punch button too early, thus interrupting the motion. The other thing is that you actually have a decent amount of time to transition from, say, down to diagonal to right. Better to have the inputs flow naturally than to try and rush it because of perceived time pressure.
Those are my (maybe useless!) tips as someone who traditionally is not very good at the mechanics of fighting games, but had to practice some basic moves at some point. Good luck! And hey, at least it's not the fucking dice game!

So during my NG+ I started nitpicking some annoying things in the game. Like, where the hell was Haru at the begging of the game? She has been a Shujin student so I should be able to run into her during Kamoshida incident. Instead the game keeps her hidden until the second half of the game for some reasons. It makes me not really care about her story since I barely had any exposure to her until she is introduced.
- You carry over social skills, left over money, skill cards, equipment, and special items received from your max confidants at the end of the game.
- I think you need to have all of them at max to unlock trophies. So if you didn't get it during your first play through, you need to play to almost the end of your NG+ to unlock it.

Started NG+ because I need more P5 in my life.
Don't worry if you missed any of them, you can catch 'em all in Mementos.

Was finally playing Nocturne but my friend kept talking about his NG+ run, so I went back to mine and played a few hours last night. God I love this game.

NG+ shouldve been short and sweet. Then I got addicted to persona fusion...
You will get special items to preserve some aspects of your Confidant relationships and gear and a few other things.
Here's a rundown

One note where that info is wrong; possible spoiler for engame
Morgana scarf is not random,
you get it when you go back to the coffee shop.

Yup. I'd just try to get Hope Diamond and Crystal Skull, otherwise you need to do what I did and get to the end game to finish the compendium.

Only mementos request I missed was the one you get by working in the flower shop and unfortunately that one just disappears after a certain time. I worked at the shop a week straight in December but couldn't get it to trigger.
Damn your right... I hadn't noticed before lol.
Still a kickass ost though
The boss song Blood of villain is also very good I'm starting to like it more than I'll Face Myself
Edit: I meant Blooming Villain
Even if there was no JP voice option, scenes like that (and all the movies) should be subtitled for the hard of hearing.
Last Surprise, Will Power, and Blooming Villain are all ace AF. The Mementos miniboss/shadow theme is good too but not quite as memorable as any of the aforementioned.
I'm only halfway through the second dungeon but I feel like I'm hardly given any time to work on social links and/or do daily life stuff. Seems like they really throw the story at you constantly when all I want to do is work on improving stats and rank up.
Is the entire rest of the game like this, where there's little to no breathing room? By the way, I've been trying to finish the dungeons ASAP.

The general loop stays similar but I personally feel like it's less bogged down after May. You also get more time for dungeons, like over 20 days in later cases.
And let's not forget Life Will Change and Rivers in the Desert
Most of the dungeons themes were good too
That reminds me, I need to check the booklet for the lyrics and see if they make more sense than P4 lol

No. It definitely opens up a lot more once you hit the summer. Actually, maybe even earlier, during rainy season.

Finally got my platinum. Was good that it took me long enough that I could use raidou outfit on mc so he looked cool with the cape for my final run.
Spending time with them adds to the bond links.

It will never advance if you don't do those. Using shrine, fortune teller or matching arcana persona (which you should always have!) will make sure you will have less of those "bad" ones.
I know but I want to fight the final boss already..
Those two plus the very first one you encounter (regent?) are the only ones I need so hopefully it doesn't take too long.
Does luck increases chances of them spawning?

I was talking about the battle themes. Whims of Fate slays but as someone above you mentioned, the lyrics are hilarious as ever. Meguro really should work with someone who is fluent in English and maybe get a singer who has good English speaking ability. Well, he should, but I hope he doesn't because these unintelligible songs are part of the appeal.
I want to replay the game but I also want to do it following a guide and getting everything 100% in one playthrough. This is what I've always done with P3 and P4, but I'm assuming a detailed guide that is able to time manage the hell out of the game won't come for a good while right?
Close, enough, thanks!
I just defeated the final boss. It was a bit too easy. It's not even because I had Yoshitsune, I only used Matarukaja with him. It was Trumpeter's Debilitate and Ann's ridiculously powerful magic. I imagine Ryuji would've made even quicker work of it but I chose to have Yusuke instead. Final boss theme isn't as good as P4's or P3's either.
As someone who is not a native English speaker I don't always get all the "funny" parts but Persona 4 was a mess lol
I agree, the final boss seemed much easier than the ones in P3 and P4. Then again the fact that I had a lvl 98 Satan with One-shot Kill, Cripple, Charge and Debilitate might have played a part too.
