Guys did Meguro work on Bleach's soundtrack? I typed in "shoji meguro" on the Youtube search bar and one of the things that popped up was "shoji meguro bleach". So I was like WTF? And then when I did the search I'm seeing a lot of Bleach tracks credited to Shoji Meguro and Shiro Sagisu?

Umm...is this the same Meguro or a different one? If it's the same Meguro I can't believe I'm finding this out now. But I'm not seeing him credited for Bleach on his Wikipedia page. And something just seems off about the whole thing :x

Because every cat in the world ends up Tsundere or Kuudere.

Which seems to work out fine for Koromaru.

Doesn't work out fine when you're trying to have a unit that work alongside humans. Plus, (P3 Drama/P4A spoilers),
the units were all based off a real girl's personality anyhow. Easier to work with what they had.

I really need to finish P1 one of these days.
But, the OST and the gameplay is just terrible.

Anyway, in my opinion.

P3 > P2 IS > P4 > ................ P1

P2 IS had the best story
P3 had the best OST (
BABYBABYBABY
), characters & atmosphere
P4 had Rise.

Yeah, it'd be weird, and totally implausible within the story and world of P3 to have a dog working alongside humans.

I honestly can't tell if that's why you ranked it so low or not.

Semi-On Topic: All this talk led to me googling Shiba Inus and remembering how fucking cute they are in real life.
Click to expand...

I want to raise a Shiba Inu personally one of these days, but I'm afraid my parents couldn't handle it or if I moved out I wouldn't be able to take it with me. It is very difficult for a master to earn their loyalty.

Even as a dog Chie is still the cutest. I think that says enough.

Chie is the worst waifu
I didn't realize that this thread was in the Main Gaming section and not the gaming community section.

No wonder we have a bunch of new faces. :3

Why. Are. You. Still. Hanging. Onto. Orpheus. o_o

Seriously, he stops gaining skills at level 6. :p

You should try doing a triangle fusion with Orpheus as a component. Try to make something quad elemental if your Decarabia isn't. What skill cards do you have of the main elemental spells too btw?

There's something about teenagers in the Persona series that makes them most logical to summon a Persona too. The vast majority of protagonists have been teenagers, and we know it's difficult (but not impossible) to summon one if you're too young or too old.

That was that dumb movie. Eternal Punishment. Dog personas. Etc.

Pretty sure that became Soul Hackers.
Click to expand...

I don't think it "became" Soul Hackers. I think they'll either make a brand new game separate from the Persona series as it is now (but not 5)...or it was just a placeholder and will remain as one.

Orpheus ain't too bad, granted he does stop learning skills at an insanely early level, but with the stat boosting cards and Portable's skill cards, he can still be good. Then again, the same can be said about any persona really. I'd assume with that Orpheus being a low level, there's none of that going on though.

New to Persona here. I bought Persona 3 FES on PSN, since I don't have a Vita and really want to try P4:G(now I am going to suffer without one).

Anyways a RANT: I've been playing on Normal, and really enjoying it, but once I got to the second month I stopped playing on PSN and just play this on my PC. I find some of the battles incredibly random and cheap. When fighting the Emperor and Empress I had to run the battle over and over because the Emperor would repeatedly instakill my MC with his first move, until once or twice he just...didn't. Without a save state you have to play through a ton of dialogue and cutscenes to get back there, which is incredibly frustrating.

Is P4 or P4:G better about this? I may try to track down a copy of P4, I really can't afford a Vita, especially with new consoles later this year....

Also...I named my MC Shinji Mikami, I don't even particularly like RE games.

Not necessarily P3, but I've pretty much had that happen with my progress on Rise's link. Last day I had a chance to work on her link I got to rank 9.

Golden is shitloads easier so yes to bolded, I suppose. Cheapness is somewhat built into the system because of how easily instakill attacks hit. Consider dropping down a difficulty level if things are too intense.

The only reason I still have Orpheus is because if I fuse him with anything it ends up being at a really shitty level, I'm trying to make him earn a few levels so that he doesn't make whatever fusion I'm making really bad.

Don't worry about the math. Just use him, and then use whatever you get from that in something else, keep picking up personas in shuffle time and stuffing them together

Fusion doesn't work that way; The base level (the level the Persona originally comes at) is considered during Fusion, not the current level. and Orpheus's base level is 1.

You should have fused him with your other low level personae and built up. A Persona always ranks upward providing it's not a same arcana fusion, so you if you keep fusing low levels with each other, you eventually will get something high level.

Also, see my edited questions above. I'm curious as to what your Decarabia has as it can inherit any ability.

Yup. If you grabbed a bunch of random from Shuffle time you can probably make some really powerful ones providing your social links are high up.
