Have you watch todays the fighting?

Pretty sure its something else tho...

Matt:whats the name of the game from Kingdom hearts with the white hair whos name is like Rikku from ffX?
Liam:Riku?
Matt: no thats not it...

I'm really surprised Liam didn't seem to know either, I have barely Played Kingdom Hearts and still know most of the characters names.
Matt is slowly going the way of Giant Bomb.

skipped the hardboiled arc, i fell asleep lol

Yeah I don't remember enjoying that one a whole lot, nothing particularly significant happens, it's just a random 2/3 episode story.

 

[JooseBawcks]

Forgetting the answer exists is also a viable option

No but I need to know now. My crazy tells me to.

Yeah, if you want challenge you're going to have to look into other MegaTen games. By the way, I highly suggest you play P3 FES first. It's the proper way to experience P3 on your first playthrough. After that there's really no need.

I'm definitely going to look into SMT3 and 4, idk about FES though. That no control over party actions shit will bug me really hard. I'll think it over.

I did what matt did with onimusha and got to the final dungeon and just stopped. I really hated the random battle rate.

Yeah it didn't bother me at first, but it's like they turn that shit up the longer you play

As far as I know Matt really dislikes the games so his ignorance isn't unexpected and I assume Liam just went with it for comedies sake.

Happy new year Best Friends!

That's a bit much, Matt is passionate about a lot of gaming stuff, which is more than what I can say about the entire GB crew.

Happy new year Best Friends!

Less than 5 hours for me but yay.

 

[CthulhuSushi]

My wallet just ran away in fear of this page...http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?scode=FIGURE-009422&page=rt_05

It's a good thing I haven't started a figurine collection. I don't know if my wallet could handle that shit.

I said slowly going, GB were passionate once too.

It's going to be weird and probably frustrating, but I think it's worth it. Some of the scenes in P3P really suffer because they don't have in-game/animated cutscenes. Also, not being able to walk around the city sucks.

Not yet, but soon.. i suppose we arent going to do anything special for the count down.

It doesn't really work when we're all in different time zones.

I'd have bought it if the life was a litte bigger but I think I can hold back

 

[ultimax]

There are so many questions I have tho... Why can the P3 cast have personas? The game just says they are chosen, but never really explains it. P1, P4 and P2's Persona explainations makes sense except for P3.

Basically what PG said. There really isn't much to it

No but I need to know now. My crazy tells me to.

But at the end of P3 there's no question that needs to be answered

Well It's already new years in every other part of the world.

1 and a half hours away nerd.

Yo Stay safe. I Heard Canada gets crazy an riots/overturn cars.

 

[Ultimate_Trainer]

Go play SMT1 tho... That opening scene somehow stunned me the first time I saw it. FES is the definitive version of the game because its super balanced both in terms of balancing out your days and combat.

Basically what PG said. There really isn't much to it

I dunno tho. PersonaGAF seems to say the Answer explains it more in depth. Why can't

Spoiler

Itkuski and Mitsuru's dad summon personas tho!?!

 

[demidar]

I said slowly going, GB were passionate once too.

That's the endgame for all of us.

Holy shit I passed out for the entirety of this family party.

FES is balanced around you only having control of the protag.

OH SHIT CROTEN THANKS ILL TRY AND TAKE A SCREENSHOT ON MOBILE

 

[DXLelouch153]

everybody post lewd pictures until New Years

 

[MillionStabs]

Yo Stay safe. I Heard Canada gets crazy an riots/overturn cars.

What? Why? Is there some kind of New Years hockey game for them to get pissed over?

Maybe for some of you.

It's always hockey season in Canadia land.

Oh the winter classic too.

It's going to be weird and probably frustrating, but I think it's worth it. Some of the scenes in P3P really suffer because they don't have in-game/animated cutscenes. Also, not being able to walk around the city sucks.

While I found the cursor to be a little finicky at times I much preferred it to walking around places like the school. They are big places and there is not a whole lot going on in them. The fast travel is a huge plus for me as well. I'm still with you on saying FES is the best way to experience it for the first time

 

[Xiraiya]

Yeah I actually really like the VN way of playing in P3P, it just cuts down on time.

 

[RecursiveFault]

Ha ha glad you like it, Imma pass out now.

Thanks man!

It's a good thing I haven't started a figurine collection. I don't know if my wallet could handle that shit.

I have a wishlist on MFC that just immediately puts me in like $300 deep.

 

[CthulhuSushi]

I'd have bought it if the life was a litte bigger but I think I can hold back

I'm too cheap for that shit lol I've pretty much changed my buying habits to whenever it's on sale..hence waiting for the steam sale

everybody post lewd pictures until New Years

I agree with Lelouch, let's usher in the New Year the only way we know how.

The Lewd Way

Thanks man!

Geez..and here I am with my one Spawn figurine.

Ah jeez alright, I might. I'm a sucker for presentation

Aren't those on the NES though OH SHIT THEY'RE ON THE WII VC AND OTHER STUFF okay I'll check them out eventually. It's going to be so back going from P4G back to SMT1 though, I guess I'll just take a break in between

But at the end of P3 there's no question that needs to be answered

No but I need it tho. Also you missed the part where I said I'm crazy

 

[Zenfalcia]

Well It's already new years in every other part of the world.

We can still do something dumb.

I read that as a different acronym.

FES is balanced around you only having control of the protag.

Basically, there's going to be a few fights in which your teammates will infuriate you and a few bossfights that become pretty hard because you have no control(though I think some of them are just supposed to be that hard). Everything can be solved by grinding though.

 

[Phantasmal Repose]

Being able to walk around is a really minor thing, but I think it added a lot. Just made the world feel more alive. Also, being able to run around with your hands in your pockets is great.

Honestly, that Real Steel game looks hype as shit...

I also have a feeling hey are going to play Ippo game at the end of all of this.

I'm blaming you all once I get salt for party members being dumb

I can dig that

It kinda becomes protag vs enemy with assists, not party vs monster.

Ah jeez alright, I might. I'm a sucker for presentation

Then you probably do wanna play FES, the difference is kinda stunning. P3P feels kinda claustrophobic and shoddy by comparison, mostly cause they got the game running on a goddamn PSP.

Persona 3?

Yes.

 

[Ultimate_Trainer]

I'm blaming you all once I get salt for party members being dumb

I can dig that

It shows their personalities tho!

Spoiler

Marin Karin Mitsuru is the greatest

 

[Phantasmal Repose]

You'll be fine as long as you use the tactics commands properly, do most of the healing yourself, and drop Mitsuru.

Persona 3?

Yup.

 

[zedreamcast]

Yup.

Yeah I love mitsuru but best team is yukari, akihiko, and aigis.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

It kinda becomes protag vs enemy with assists, not party vs monster.

Which is why fusing the right monsters and skills is even more important than in P4, because you can only rely on those. Which reminds me of the total crap that is the fusing system, I kind of don't want to replay P3 until they maybe remake it(I can dream).

edit: DROP MITSURU?? Sure she could be annoying with her Marin Karin but she still did by far the highest amount of damage of the whole crew. My team in the end was Yukari, Mitsuru and Aigis. Akihiko was good too. There were 2 characters I refused to use

Spoiler

Ken because lol no, and doggy because personas that rely on instant kill skills suck

I had to look that up, never heard of mildly fat chick.

I was never bothered by the random fusions in any of the Nocturne onwards games. The game isn't so difficult that you ever needed more than maybe one or two skills to transfer. Nocturne is probably the one game where it matters most.

Also it's all about Aki, Yukari, Aigis.

Yes they crucified those robots sweetie

 

[Aaron-Lagann]

I got so much alcohol. I'm so excited! Happy New Year Frienders! Truly this is the best holiday. Instead of family, friends and presents, it's a holiday based around getting drunk and having sex with strangers.
