Also, someone pleas explain to me the ending where Sae
had Joker turner himself in at the end and they listed his charges but because they got that witness from the shido incident at the beginning of the game to testify they let joker go
I wrote a whole bunch of words in the spoiler thread about the ending that go into detail about, among other things, why that happened, and you can read it--
And Sae should've been romanceable. She's the better sister. There I said it.
I wish I could take screenshots. I took a picture on my phone instead but it doesn't look as good. I had a result screen where every single character leveled up as well as about 6 personas. Somehow feels like an accomplishment
No. Jack Frost is ジャックフロスト, Black Frost is ジャアクフロスト. It's a pun. Jyaaku is "evil" and sounds like Jyakku which is "Jack".

whoa, hold the fucking phone, buddy. i ain't answering shit now. you done fucked up.
So I'm close to the final boss now, and I'm wondering if there's a recommended level I should be at or a certain skill I should get to help out. I'm level 68 right now and I just got
out of the Velvet Room and back into the real world
. I assume I've got to push through some enemies to get to the final boss, but I'm worried I'm under leveled, though I didn't struggle with anything before this. Any tips would be appreciated!

The last stretch before the final boss nets you A LOT of exp, but if you end up around level 75 you should be fine. I grinded for money a little too much there and ended at level 79, but wished I hadn't because the big bad didn't stand a chance, even on Hard.

Extremely belated protip: pressing the touchpad button thing in most locations will bring up a screen that shows a few pieces of information, including the average level of the playerbase on your current day.
I believe the average level at that point was 80, but I imagine there are more people pushing up to the level cap than madmen doing low level playthroughs, so the average will naturally be inflated. You're in a good spot.
Dammit...I didn't think of this. I was doing remote play on my laptop so I could do mundane stuff while watching TV. Ugh. Lol. Well at least I know for next time

and then I think I was supposed to meet up with Ryuji to train or something. I couldn't respond while eating at Leblanc cause story reasons apparently. Was I supposed to reply to meet with him later? I think I went to the Bathhouse or Library instead and the day passed. I'm unable to respond to the previous messages but now Ryuji's at the arcade and I met up with him. Did I do something wrong/miss anything?
Gonna start this soon -- possibly as soon as tomorrow. I heard there are a significantly reduced number of days playable relative to the previous two games, though. Is that true, or did I misunderstand and/or the person was wrong?

There are a lot of days where the story will railroad you through days, preventing you from doing activities. Many people find this annoying. However, there is still plenty of time (more than enough) to social link and do activities (and, in fact, this game is more lenient than P3 or P4 vanilla in terms of getting stuff done in one playthrough), and it's the longest of the Persona games in overall playtime.

December 2nd, been in the Palace for quite some time now. Planned to get as far as I can, but I'm going back out to get my fortune read cause I forgot. Got 300,000+ now, I think... Tsk. Unless it doesn't stack with Hifumi's ability, then I've lost a lot of potential money.
Anyway, question about the last Palace.
I know about the "second part" of Palace 7, and I wanted to know when it starts. Does it immediately start after I steal the treasure, or will it only start after the deadline?
Should I hold off stealing the treasure til near the deadline and spend my time with my Confidants instead, or should I finish the Palace ADAP and then spend time with my Confidants while waiting for the deadline? Or will it be just the same either ways?

Not quite sure what you're talking about in the spoiler in the second paragraph. To answer your broader question,
do the palace as normal. You won't lose any days. However, if you secure a route to the treasure, do the calling card ASAP, as party member confidants will be unavailable until you do.

I was referring to "Mementos Depths," I believe it's called? My friend referred to the last dungeon as having two parts, so I'm assuming that's what he was referring to.

That will be effectively the 8th dungeon. The 7th palace, Shido's, is done as normal. However, the deadline for Shido's palace will effectively be your last chance to do confidants, as you won't be able to leave the Mementos Depths once you enter.
No, lots of people really think that. It's basically a matter of "feeling" something rather than actually calculating and comparing. Persona 5 has long stretches which feel really limiting for no reason, and hence it gives an impression that they are holding you back more than previous games, especially since most people played the "previous games" centuries ago. It's not true, but it is true that when playing, P5 feels more restrictive at times than what the player would be comfortable with.

Man, Sojiro and Yusuke's SLinks are my fave. Probably the best written and well thought out compared to the majority of the other ones. Still need to complete some more but they rank pretty high for me.
Completed the game @ ~114 hours. I played the whole day yesterday for about 15 hours from 12/10 til the end. The dungeon crawling was not so bad but it gets tiresome when you're playing for 10 hours straight.
Loved the ending and I wonder how they will go with this. I don't think an extended version will add anything to the plot unless they plan to add post-game content not related to the main story. It seems to me that (ending spoilers)
almost all plot threads were resolved nicely except Morgana coming back and how the god of control came to be in the first place.

Yaldabaoth was willed into existence from the cognition of the public due to their apathy. It was definitely explained and is pretty much a central theme of the game.

From my understanding, he was the Treasure of humanity that was materialized by human cognition due to their sloth, like you said. He became a god because people wanted someone to control and decide for them. My line of thinking was he was already existing in some form and it just happened to align with the wishes of humans so that's what made him appear. It's not clear cut how he existed in the first place aside from the explanation that he is really a god that was summoned (or willed into existence) by human cognition. It's also a mystery how he came into contact with the Velvet room and was able to take Igor captive as normal people don't even have knowledge of the room existing.

Humanity goes down the wrong path.
The Cognitive World is created along Yaldabaoth, which is the Treasure of the public.
The Cognitive World gets stronger.
Yaldabaoth decides to challenge Igor to a game that will decide the fate of humanity.
He cheats, traps Igor and throws the Velvet Room in the Depths of Mementos. Lavenza is turned into the twins.
The people whose distorted desires don't align with the rest of the cognitive world are thrown into their own Palaces.
Some time around here Wakaba researches about the Cognitive World, her works are stolen, she dies (because of Akechi) and all that. Shido starts his conspirancy
That's some kinda timeline for P5 as far as I can remember.
I'm still poor af though. Maybe I should have grind money and then exp. It's gonna be harder now that I basically one shot everything. On second thought I made a huge mistake.
