I was wrong earlier lol, but I still like Nocturne's style a lot more. But holy shit Medusa's design was bad. That face.

Also I don't know if I would consider this game "difficult." You either get wrecked in one "turn" or you completely destroy a boss easily. There is no middle ground.

Yeah, the pace of the fights is insane. It gives it a very snappy feel that I like, but at the same time makes the game really unbalanced.

Enjoy! :D
Oh gee, guess which one I'll take :S

I'm spiteful enough that I'd actually do that...

Have we seen any clips where P3 characters talk to P4 characters on PQ yet? Like, Chie talks to Yosuke there, but will, say, Chie talk to Mitsuru?

Everyday's great with Nanako-chan! She's pretty good for her age, but she still a kid, so don't beat her too badly! You wouldn't want Nanako to cry! Just don't underestimate her putting game!

Dojima is next.

Amazing!

I had to quit playing yesterday just before the true final boss at P4. I'm so sad that it's over soon. I stopped playing P3 at the the time after 40 hours because I found the game overall boring. When I started P4, I thought I would quit after a few hours, but this game is simply amazing. The story is interesting, the dungeons are a bit boring but the bosses are challenging and the battle system is fast, the characters are funny and the voice acting is excellent.
Is the anime worth it to watch? I watched a little at youtube to see how it is and Yu is way cooler in the show. He's so badass. Yu marry me...

From Siliconera:

Certain combinations of characters like the Persona 3 protagonist and Yukari or Chie and Yosuke banter during battle. Players can change characters at anytime they are inside the school.

Very lame. Guess this means no banter for my party. :/
 
So just beated Catherine yesterday. Really good game that makes me hyped to see some of what brings to the table in terms of presentation for Persona 5.
Got the good Katherine ending, so seems I was doing
good actions
even though I was just answering how I thought I would answer in real life. I still have a problem though with the choosing of the two girls. While Vincent knows how Katherine really is, the people playing the game know nothing about her (
understandable with Catherine though
), and that makes she look during the whole game in a bad light.
Even if she is the "good" route
she seems like a prick and too pushy in the majority of scenes she appears. It didn't help for me that she had that strange color of fingernails, I know, I know, it's a pretty stupid thing to hate, but I've always disliked that since I was a kid (I don't know why though). I probably wouldn't have chosen her in real life,
even if I would have tried to be a good guy with what was happening in the game.
So getting that ending didn't do much for me, although I understand it. She is maybe a great girl when acting normally when they were a couple, but the player never sees that, so they can never think like Vincent as he thinks in that ending.
Even if the game at the end says theres not a good or bad way to do things, there clearly seems to be (although I don't know how good the other endings are so that my change my opinion). I also felt that most of the questions to be truly answered by me, had to have a "depends" answer, most of the time I was saying, yeah I would do this, but I would also do that depending of the situation.
The puzzles are tough as hell and I had to put it on easy at the 6th day, the normal stages, even if tough, are doable, but I couldn't think well while a boss was attacking me as fast as he could with instant death attacks. Easy is much more manageble and fun for me.
The bar segment was probably the best of the game, talking with the people that went in and out, your friends, Erica, the boss of the bar Stan Lee, strange characters, the phone message system (loved that), the drinking giving you pieces of trivia of those drinks... Some of these things need to be in Persona 5.
I really like the music of the game, my favourite tracks are the ones in the puzzle segments, that have little pieces of classical music.
In the end, I had a lot of fun with everything, I love the presentation and I would recommend the game.


What a horrible night to have a curse.

Just reminded me that the final enemy in Catherine repeats this all the time during the fight. Cool Castlevania II nod.

This is so cute. I love she looks like her detective self in P4 animation episode.

Don't worry, there's probably banter for the majority of combinations.
If I can leave Ken in the sidelines for the whole game, that's what Im going to do lol
