This too, that satisfaction you get after defeating him is just something I haven't gotten from any other game.

It's actually true though.
I highly doubt that they're announcing P5, but you never know!
And crush the spirit of Nintendtards?
Yes, please.
Though we won't hear anything until after someone acquires Index.

In retrospect, it was really easy when I decked out my crew. But man, I had to go back and grind for Izanami and levels. It wasn't fun
I think you're talking about my post, which dealt with the opposite.
In case you didn't know, at it's core, Persona 2: Innocent on the PSP is one of the easiest games I have ever played. I'm not exaggerating here, the enemies you fight to too little damage, fusion spells are absurdly strong, and 90% of the bosses are pushovers, it's piss easy. I don't have a penchant for doing challenges, but I actually went ahead and ignored armor altogether, and the game was still too easy.
If you're following the spoiler-free guide on gamefaqs, you should be set. It gives you hints, contact info and other important stuff (such as how to obtain the awakened Persona, which can be missed in this game)
I've read somewhere that they've made the game much easier in the NA version of the game and that our Hard mode is like the japanese Normal mode. That'd explain a lot.

Yeah, I'm three hours into the game, just finished the second dungeon, I think (the Zodiac club), and I'm only at level 6 but killing things pretty easy.
I haven't done much fusing yet, with the exception of getting out a Pixie like the FAQ suggested, but I'm not really liking the negotiations; there's too many to keep track of and I keep making a pact and losing other pacts because I guess I can only hold 3 at a time? I do like the dungeons are actual levels and not random hallways (but i dislike the random encounters, which are at least low rate right now).

From someone who had beaten the game, IS does not require much fusion. Hell I only think that I've been to the velvet room one or twice. As long as you make certain decisions in the game, it's possible to get though it without the VR.
I like most of the Awakening's character designs. But I really hate how Sumia and the loli dragon looks.

That makes the game extremely boring though. And by fusion, I'm assuming you mean summoning.
I'm surprised you got through that clock smashing ordeal ok (that was a pain, haha).
And Magus is right, you don't really need to summon any more Personas, since your initial personas should last until you have access to their prime forms. That said, the summons the guide suggest (Minotaur, Pixie, etc) are really awesome, so try them out if you have the chance.
Don't bother with pacts, just get the tarot cards and move on.

But getting tarot cards from demons with pacts give you free tarot, which in turn makes farming cards less of a pain.

Person 5 announcement on 3ds or wiiu tomorrow at the Nintendo direct.

Well, I just beat Yasuo on the rooftop in two turns. Either I'm way too high of a level, or you guys weren't kidding when you said this game was easy! I think I'm just going to avoid pacts, level up when I need it (no more grinding. I'm already 5 hours into the game and doesn't seem like I'm very far) and just go with it.

That's what I had in mind, my mistake.

Guys, I am weak...
SO VERY WEAK.
On a completely unrelated note, I finally got a frame for my baby:
Aw yeah.

We dunno yet. If no one mentions it in 4 hours that's a safe bet. (Well, it's a safe bet no matter what but whatever.)
In a surprising twist, I really didn't like Scott Pilgrim.
Good purchase on the art book though.
OH YE OF LITTLE FAITH.
Famitsu review scores are already in. If it was gonna leak, it probably would have by now.
Leaks actually have started, yes. Word of GUST's Atelier Rororona remake for PS3/Vita came yesterday. Nothing else though.
It's not happening until September, is it?
You'll be moving at a brisk pace, and you'll be fusing a few demons at most so it's that useful.
It's necessary in Persona 2: EP though.
NEXT TUESDAY FOR SURE!
Yea, the guide demons are helpful in getting fusion skills to wipe out most random encounters really quickly. I'm 12 hours in currently myself, and the encounter rate has become somewhat unbearable, but at least spamming the same powerful AOE fusion attacks helps a bit with the overbearing downtime that fights cause.
The guide does a good job pointing out any future contact information to keep in mind for later personas, mostly again optional. Just useful for getting in and out of fights ASAP. You really need not bother at all with cards, as even as far as I have played nothing has come close to requiring brainpower to take down.
I think we already firmly established earlier that if it's happening it'd be near the later half of August. Could possibly be next week, what with the Persona Music Festival and all.
That's the time you'd probably want to hold your breath for. TGS would be the best time to announce it.
I personally don't think there's going to be a peep of it until the Index fiasco starts to subside, but I'm not exactly the first guy you should trust with predictions.
Oh yeah, it's definitely Tuesday next week. I can feel it.

It's one of my favourite movies ever, which explains why you don't like it ;P
The art book is great, though. I really wish they'd gone through with the original idea of
making Teddie's human form a girl though, that would've been a way better twist than Naoto being a girl.
I do too. It would have been really cool.

Well they kinda did sorta, and did you mean keeping him male in costume and just a girl out of costume or in general?
You don't say.

The book says he was going to be a "beautiful woman outside of the costume," so I'd assume he'd still be referred to as male before the reveal to make it more of a surprise.

Yeah but if that were to happen what would happen to our lovable womanizing oaf

Such as:
-Not having fun
-Grimacing
-Complaining a lot
-Not letting things go
-Boiling puppies alive
-Being the bad guy in a Home Alone movie
-Freezing Han Solo in carbonite
-Punching babies
-Setting retirement homes on fire
-Telling kids to get off your lawn
Question: If I was going to draw a Persona character in the elf outfit from Dragon's Crown, who would look the best?
That's about the sum of it, yeah.

Persona 1 and 2 characters would clash with what I've been previously drawing.
Also I dislike Ayase's design.

This one is great, though. Along with solicitors, mormons, and any bothersome people really.
Porch, rocking chair, rifle, cigars and a scotch. That's what I strive for when I'm an old man.

Fuuka seems like the obvious elf choice
Yukari works too somewhat

First that comes to mind would be Yukari, partly because her hair and eye colour won't clash with the outfit, partly because she's an archer. Or Chie would work with the green.
Drag Yu does have similar hair style though

Honestly? Yukari. Bow for Bow.
