Guys pls, that is clearly a positive message in the text.
Speaking of P1
We finished up in the Pink Forest of Masculinity. I'm assuming we did it right since there was no boss-fight. Sort of a weak dungeon anyway, but I'll take that over Karma Palace any day. We must be about half-way through the game now, I guess. If it wasn't PAINFULLY OBVIOUS that Mai and Aki are Maki before it sure is now. Also it turns out that the thing that Aki is brandishing each time we meet her is a compact. Kinda interesting. Team is pretty ridiculously OP at this point. Fred's almost learned Megidola now, and Mark already knows it. Maki has that fire spell of hers plus Mediarama and Reiji has some miracle magic. The only dead weight is Nanjo, who just needs to reach level 28 so we can give him a more useful Persona than Lillim.
Now to go through the gosh darn subway for the billionth time.

Haha holy shit, you have 2 Megidola users?
And yeah, P1 is ridiculously easy to break. Dunno why there's this prevailing notion that it's "too hardcore."

Because like P2ISP, P1P's enemies were stronger and more aggressive in the original P1, PK. It was still an easy game to break back then though, but death usually meant you were put way back, there is much less save points in the original too. For example, the final dungeon has like 4 save points in the PSP version, in the PS1 version, it just has 1 save point, at the very beginning of the dungeon. Unlike P2ISP's nerf though, I don't feel like it effects P1's fun factor at all. If anything, I think the re-balancing of P1 actually makes the game more fun.
Yeah, the difficulty adjustment to P1P didn't make all the enemies hit for 1 HP. On Hard mode. >_>;
I'm not sure but I think Nanjo might be en route to knowing Megidola, too. But yeah, I found some World Persona for Fred and at rank 8 it learns Megidola.

Well, IS was always an easy game. EP is the hard one, and the PSP version sure keeps that intact.
Innocent Sin is an easy game barring the final boss, sure. But there was NO excuse for the significant damage nerf across the board. Enemies literally did a fraction of their original damage in the PSP version.

Agreed, only the final boss needed a nerf. Boy did he ever. It was like playing Rhapsody then having the Demi-Fiend be the final boss.
Persona 2 Innocent Sin confirmed for metaphor for Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody. Easy going until the halfway point, then it gets a bit faster. Then you hit the end and the guitars really kick in hard.
EP isn't a hard game, just frustrating at times.

Still the hardest in the series by a mile.
Got as far as Deva Yuga in P1PS1. Almost done, then onto IS again(the fan translation this time).
You're blowing my mind right now.

P3FES in The Answer?

I would still say that the Answer in P3FES is harder than P2:EP.
Does a lot of annoying things in there to make the game more difficult than it should be. Like the fact that there is no Compendium in the Answer and you can only rely on persona cards you get in Shuffle Time for fusion is awful. And setting the games difficulty to P3FES Hard.
Hard can be fun. Better than IS. Haven't played it in a few weeks because I'm having absolutely no fun with that game. Story was the only thing keeping me going but playing it sucks so much.
I never actually thought The Answer was difficult. P3FES was my first Megaten game and The Answer was just grindy, but not really all that hard. Maybe that's just me.
I thought P3 was harder, personally. Random encounters were trivialized by the fusion spell system, and 99% of the bosses could be overcome through sheer attrition (since you had multiple party members you could just heal/revive. No instant losses from the MC dying either). The only boss that I struggled on was Was-mother-friggin-Sugiwara (and only because I didn't know "how" to fight him) and the final boss.
I was pretty underlevelled when I beat it too.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes-- you're the best, PersonaGAF! I'm actually across the country in California for a work conference, so I didn't really have a chance to do a lot of fun stuff... That being said, next weekend is PAX East, so I think I'll just celebrate there instead! ;D
Once I get back home on Thursday I'll be around more again, but I'm glad I stopped by quick before bed! In other news, Aniplex needs to cut the shit and get those P3 movies dubbed before I take out a bank loan to afford their blurays... -_-

You know, Sho actually could show up in P4D.
I'd rather he didn't, though. And the P4G epilogue makes me think he won't do.
We'd best see something about that bloody game soon.
Is it out yet?

Sign me up for it. I really liked the new tracks they composed for the PSP version of Persona 1.
Interestingly, it says that the arrangements are still by Meguro.
That's pretty exciting, if true.
I drew some Frozen sketches. It's not Persona, but everybody likes Frozen, so I'm pretty sure that makes it a-okay.
Gonna try and throw together something for Buddha's art week after dinner. Quality not guaranteed!

Everything about Frozen is cool. (OMG COOL GET IT BECAUSE FROZEN)
Have you drawn anything for Fool Week?
Still haven't seen Frozen.

Blasphemy. It's probably one of my favorite Disney movies of all time.

I'm going to use this in daily life now. "I was going to come into work today but I ended up creating a fantasy universe instead"
Me either. I probably should sooner than later. I'm in no rush.

I mistook this as a request for an update of School Days.
I was actually disappointed when I realised what you meant.
We need School Days set to School Days
Technically, one exists too.
I actually like animated musicals, they're the only musicals I can stand. The stand out musicals for me being Aladdin, The Road to El Dorado, and the South Park movie.
I just haven't had the time to watch Frozen yet. I'll rent it eventually, unless it's on Netfix. Is it on Netfix?

We need School Days HQ to become School Days HD.
On that note, haven't heard anything about Island Days for a while..
Here's a page from the middle of my current sketchbook
To be honest, it's actually a lot of work/research depending on how you're making the nation. I spent like a day looking stuff up to make plausible landmasses, rivers, topography, mountain ranges... and then I spent another day looking up how important metellurgy was to technological development, various systems of magic, looking up bits and pieces of history, the Roman aqueduct system and method of government, English establishment of police forces, French forensics, the use of guns in 18th century warfare and what societies take to develop nationalism... it's all fascinating stuff.

I actually didn't like Frozen, but those sketches are pretty neat.
I love Frozen so much. I was about to draw a fanart for it, but there are too much Elsa fanart out there already.
