Go train in the gym to get permanent max hp and sp increase!!!!
#FE is way more light-hearted but also has some stylish elements as well (nice looking menu) but I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by the combat and the flashy visuals there. I had way more fun with #FE's combat than P5, tbf. You just need to collect all your party members and gain their extra moves and skills. P5 combat is drab by comparison.
I thought you could skip the Sessions. I know for a fact that you could skip the special moves and duo animations.
Some of them can't be hit with confuse. These are apparently the ones who are farmable. http://i.imgur.com/NKtDEz2.png

Watching the end credits roll on my first playthrough... Not even close to a plat run, but like many others i got the Futaba lines trophy on the final fight.
Some thoughts...
I want to immediately replay and also stall like crazy replaying for the improved Crimson edition. Also, i kind of hope there will be a direct sequel,
Ultimate question is whether i go back to plat or not... Any good guides for a second playthrough plat?
Some thoughts...
- The game could have used some very light pruning, especially in the dungeons.
- I seem to have gotten off easy with an only 92 hour run.
- Haru
is best girl, and it's disappointing she shows up so late and that so much of her feels incomplete even in slinks
- Futaba
should not be dated,
YOU'RE TEARING THIS FAMILY APART!

they definitely left room for one.

Couldn't possibly be worse than 3's, Nocturne's, or DDS'...
Nothing like a weird mixture of Kabbalah and Gnosticisim!

I'm at 100hrs, on what I believe to be the last Palace
and MAN IS THIS A DRAG. I don't remember 3 or 4 feeling like this when I got to the last stages of the game. I think in general the theme I get out of these Palaces, all of them, is that they are way too long for their own good. I appreciate the handmade design in them, but heck, it's too much for too long.

Just a heads up... You're still probably another
15 hours
--2--
Trust me, I think Palace 7 drags too much for its own good,
the rat corridors
Especially 3.
Hello 2/3 whole sections of Tartarus + whatever you didn't already do of Tartarus before.

Omfg. Stop this LMFAO.
Yeah those goddamn things were cute the first couple of times but after it happened 2, 3, 4 times I was like... Jesus. I'm not even done, wouldn't be surprised if I got more on the way. After all, I just found the
IT guy
As for the P3 opinion, to me, because the whole game was basically the same from start to finish, the mind numbing nature of clearing floors I think got muddled around halfway through. I knew what to expect every time I set foot on Tartarus. There were no damn
rat labyrinths
Nah, you're basically done with Palace 7 if
you've gotten to the IT guy
I dunno, I guess I never got used to Tartarus. I kind of just put up with it for everything else, like the boss battles, the characters, and the story. Kind of expected more effort to be put into the final stretch, like how more effort was put into the full moons.

Thank goodness. Apparently I still have more to go though D:Nah, you're basically done with Palace 7 if.you've gotten to the IT guy

I still put Persona 3 as my favourite Persona package. The plot, the characters, it all worked for me. Persona 5 is infinitely better in terms of QoL additions to the loop, but at the end of the day the game is still that: a loop. Find bad guy, beat the palace, have a change of heart, rinse, repeat. The story itself isn't particularly amazing in my opinion, and some of these Confidants just don't cut it for me. For instance, Makoto's which is my favourite girl in the game, is just poor. And it's not just hers, although there are some great character arcs here like Ryuji's, there are some really bad ones too. The Palaces length is another issue that I mentioned having with this title. Don't get me wrong I still very much like this game, and overall enjoy these characters and mood a lot more than P4 that was too Scooby Doo-ish for me, but Persona 3 is still king, even with the mind numbing Tartarus and all.
Mementos. Not too hard to farm, tbh.

About half the time of your first playthrough if you power through it with OP Personas that can near one shot the first 3 bosses.
I mean, I put it on a lower difficulty and skipped pretty much all the cut scenes that I hadn't seen before (while watching the confidant scenes I hadn't). I finished my first run around 103 hours, and I'm at 151 in NG+ towards the end of Palace 7. I also spent a couple of those hours farming mementos bosses for cash, farming the Reaper, and fusing Persona to fill out the compendium.
cool I made a level 99
Lucifer
My compendium is at 97%. Seem like i'm missing a couple because I couldn't max three confidents before the end of the game.
I'll find out one day...
Funnily enough, all of those require very specific setups and are otherwise impossible, which is specifically what you wanted from P5's haha.
Your choices depend on your confidant ranks at the time.
For example, my only options were Makoto and Ryuji so I went with Makoto.

I'm in the third palace and still don't have access to the gym.
What's the requirement?
I like how
developed in the build up to this palace.

I got the trophy in the fifth palace
during the airlock
Just roll with it. You'll see, there's nothing punishing you it's just story stuff.
Oh ok.
I figured something like that because
Shido's heart still changed. They can try to hide it but it still did happen.

Ooh, yeah. Loving this Devil Fruit/Odd Morsel exploit trick. Or "Money exploit" as it's apparently known.
Getting 55-60k per turn when the bosses actually bother to hand out money. Might consider spending a bit more time boosting my luck to see if I can get a significant increase on my next trip to Mementos.

I'll put a spoiler on this, but I doubt anybody this early in the game will be checking this thread.
The game really doesn't make enough of the fact that Kamoshida

It gets one line of dialogue in a conversation between the two of them,

BROKE RYUJI'S FUCKING LEG
It gets one line of dialogue in a conversation between the two of them,
and he rubs his knee/falls over when fleeing his palace.
Given that his whole social link is about the track team, not one of them comments that it was messed up when their coach BROKE HIS FUCKING LEG.
Only the confidants you max in your initial playthrough will carry over their perks. Those perks will only activate once you've started their contracts again in NG+.

You can easily pull 100k+ with high luck.
I was totally expecting him to mention it when he was apologizing at the gym but nope, pretty weird. Ryuji is so hated that not even a change of heart can make Kamoshida feel bad about him lol.
Just finished the game today with 114 hours played. The PPD(Post Persona Depression) is real. Lost interest in starting another game right away. Maybe in a week when I get back from a vacation.
I've seen many people say they were disappointed, but I wasn't. I loved the game. I thought the story and characters were great, and it sucks saying goodbye to it.
To those who say they're at Palace 4 or 5 and are getting tired, keep going it's worth it.

lmao Ryuji you fool! The students council president is accusing us of being the phantom thieves, and Ryuji calls and yells phantom thieves on the phone

I feel like I should always have a Persona with Tentafaroo (or something) like it, as well as the passive, status-ailment likelihood boosts. And yet, I never *really* use that stuff. Should I just not bother?

Just started up the countdown to Palace 7 and holy cow I think I may actually be able to max every confidant. First playthrough, no guide. the fuck
I'm on palace 3 and I'm wondering if there's an equivalent of Zio/Agi/Bufu but for Bless
All I have is Hama and Hama fucking sucks
It uses a ton of SP and only works 20% of the time
This dungeon is full of Orobas and as far as I can tell it's only weak to Bless which is v. annoying
