NG+ will help you fix that mistake.

This NG+ has changed my view on the game totally.
In the first playtrough was basically:
- Doing lots of stuff to increase my stats (rain days being obligatory dinner time, crafting shit for that proffiency, working my ass off in the flowershop for that kind stat, reading books like a crazy man, playing videogames when I was bored and leaving them without completing them, being a fatso regular customer at BBB and all that time hanging in maid cafes.... basically an otaku life)
- Taking at least one day extra than normal to finish Palaces the only ones that I ended at the shortest time were 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th. I took an extra day in the 1st for being dumb and in the 3rd one for lack of SP.
- I hanged A LOT with my Confidants for getting them maxed up especially with Takemi, Hifumi and Yusuke.
- I was always low on money like IRL. I was almost an expert of management and every yen was valuable.

And now in NG+:
- I am perfect in stats basically so no need to better myself now. I was born with talent.
- I have become a gambling addict. Every damn day I end up buying tickets... It hocked me up when I won 100, 000 yen at one of my first draws.
- I ended up being a sports fan going to the batting cages, fishing in the pond and excercising is a common thing for me now.
- I end up a Palace without wasting anything.
- I had a shit ton of money but I am saving it to fill up that compedium.
- I shoot things just because I like it since I have lots of reload items.
- I am a lot more sociable but hanging with a lot of people makes me miss that times when I only had time to hang with my really really close pals.

It's like playing 2 different games entirely. I put myself the rule to no break the game too much and only use Personas at the same pace of the first playtrough. To keep things exciting.

Yahtzee liked this game apparently.


So maybe, just maybe, this might be one of the best JRPGs that have come out in a while.

It would be nice if this game gets a PSVita port.

On my NG+. High level magical skills aren't useable at the beginning since your SP is shit low but physical skill is another story since its cost is based on percentage of your full HP so even while you are at low level, you can use high level persona to spam high level physical attack without dying since it doesn't cost a lot.

Real talk though

Did Kamoshida really rape Shiho, or just molest her?

I get the whole "Ann didn't sleep with me so I used Shiho shtick" but I have trouble grasping the idea that Shiho would just not put up a struggle just because of a spot in the volleyball team.

@PeenusWeenusCaim

It's really hard to tell. It's not specific about anything, not even that he even at least molested her. The only thing that's really clear is that he hit her at least a few times, and if he hadn't molested her that he was going to soon. It's hard to tell if Shiho did what she did from the aftermath of sexual assault, or to escape what she knew was going to happen. I think Kamoshida probably put some pressure on her, but when Shiho didn't do what he wanted of her then he probably beat her.

I'd be interested in a direct translation of the JP version of all of these events, assuming that isn't what we got. Maybe it's more clear than the English version.

He tried but Shiho resisted then he beat her.

I think he that he confesed the sexual harrasment with his change of heart but he cuts when to said ""whaat I did to her...." could be either the constants beat-ups, attempt of rape or the full act.

That would be pretty cool if they added a Shiho social link to the game, I know someone bothered to make an entire fake one on reddit. We don't even need a "Golden" version, just give me an epilogue scene taking place a year later or something.

If we are asking, I would love to see a scene of the protagonist with Tanaka, after spending 1, 000, 000 yen in shaddy comodities you get to meet the founder, in the meeting Tanaka starts to tell Joker about a certain blue haired boy who changed his life.

Haru, Kawakami and
are my favorite P5 girls.

Oh and about that image, if you go to places like 4chan I'm sure you can find people posting those kind of comments about every girl. I've seen similar things about Makoto, Futaba, Ann and Chihaya.

The only people I have yet to see go full degenerate are Takemi and Sawakami fans.

That's because Takemi is degenerate to begin with.

Her fans are the type of people who enjoy getting stepped on and being called a guinea pig. There's no need to act it up, it was there to begin with.

Kawakami on the other hand is just too pure and perfect to be sullied.

So uhm...I'm curious about the Japanese voice acting since everyone said it's great, but I'm honestly really digging the English cast so far. For those of you guys who played using both languages already, which of the characters definitely sound better in Japanese and vice versa?

Joker - Japanese
Ann - English
Ryuji - Both are great
Yusuke - Japanese but the English guy is goddamn good
Makoto - Japanese
Haru - Japanese
Goro - English
Morgana - English
Futaba - English
Sae - Japanese
Sojiro - BOTH ARE SMOOTH AS FUCK
Kamoshida - Both are cool
Madarame - Japanese
Kaneshiro - Japanese
Okumura - Is pretty meh in both
Shido - Japanese (MADAFUKIN CHAR IS OP)
Igor - Japanese
Caroline & Justine- English

I don't remember much of the confidants. Only that Yoshida is pretty damn GODLY in every language.

Thanks fam, this looks like an honest answer. Good to see it's about 50-50 at least for the main cast. I've only met Ryuji and Morgana from the main party so far, and I agree on their English voices being great. Caroline and Justine also have spot-on voices.

Now I'm curious about Sae's Japanese voice since I think the English VA did a fine job.

Matt Mercer voices Yusuke in English. I've never liked any of Mercer's roles. He voiced Leon in Resident Evil 6. He voiced Kanji in P4 Dancing All Night. He voiced Levi in Attack on Titan. His Kanji voice was alright but was a mere shell of the original.

All that said, I absolutely loved his performance in Persona 5. I think he's found a style where his voice belongs with the Yusuke character. Going into Persona 5 looking at the voice actor list, his was the only name I recognized, and I greatly worried over it because of my dislike for him. It astonished me, then, that he'd become one of my favorite characters in the game and that the voice role would propel that.

I haven't listened to much of the Japanese voices, perhaps I'll do a JP playthrough the next time I play it. I think there's always the pattern though, that you generally enjoy more the version of something you experience first.

Mercer is good but it doesn't beat Sugita Tomokazu he is a GOD (Gintoki in Gintama, Joseph Joestar in JoJo, Karasuma in Assasination Classroom, Hidenori in Nichibros, Switch in Sket Dance, Mayama in Honey & Clover).

If you think excentric in Japanese media you think in Sugita Tomokazu or Jun Fukuyama (Funny how one is Yusuke and the other one Joker).

Sugita is a god. I also think the whole reason Futaba and Yusuke had such good chemistry in the game was just because of Sugita's chemistry with Yuuki IRL.

Just beat the game. Knew I was hearing familiar voices all throughout the game, and only now did I find out that the Japanese cast for main characters is practically all-star.

Didn't actually expect Aoi Yuuki to be voicing Futaba. I guess it's usually hard to see her voice coming considering the crazy range she has done in the past. Also found out that she's Pascal in Nier Automata too somehow.

Taura Takahisa (Game designer for Platinum Games) liked Aoi Yuuki's voice so much, he threatened to stop working on Nier Automata if she didn't appear in the game.

I was surprised with Makoto's english VA. I know that she does roles for dubbed anime so I wasn't expecting much but I gotta say she nailed Makoto's character. Other then a couple of times where she screams something her voice is spot on. Ryuji dub only, "THIS IS BULLSHIT" and "FOR REAL?!" The japanese voice just doesn't compare.

My only problem with Ryuji is "what the eff?!" That's more of a writing thing than a voice acting thing. We know Ryuji doesn't have a problem with saying "fuck", so I don't know why they made him so timid with it sometimes.

Yeah that bothered me too. They got the M rating so I would assume it would be okay for him to say "fuck". All kids around his age say it anyway so it shouldn't of been an issue. They had the word "fuck" in a couple of non-voiced lines by some random NPC's. I think one of them was a mementos target.

They had it at least once in a voiced line, too.


Personally, I think adding little quirks to characters - i.e. Ryuji's tendency to say "what the eff?" instead of the alternative - makes them seem more compelling. Lots of people have their own unique habits that may seem odd to others, but that they themselves don't notice/have stopped noticing. I got the sense that Ryuji's habit was something he developed years before the events of the game, but that he stopped noticing/didn't feel like changing later on.

It bugged me far more the one or two times he actually said "f*ck," because it felt inconsistent with his established linguistic quirk. It was like if Teddie suddenly referred to Yu by name instead of as "Sensei."
Important Note: I no longer - in any way, shape, or form - consider myself a moral nihilist (even in my old, convoluted definition of the term). I very much do believe there is such a thing as objective good and evil. In addition, I apologize for any of the posts I've made that are rude, aggressive, or otherwise unbecoming.

I've always striven to walk a path befitting a follower of Christ, and now recognize some of my old comments here as misguided if not outright wrong. If you happen upon them, pray do not let them darken your view of the God I serve. He is kind, even if I, at times, have not been.

Still really early on, but I'm already loving the new baton pass mechanic. I was hoping they had something like this back in the previous games.

Also, do I just suck at negotiating or are capturing Shadows kind of difficult? I'm guessing the choices are formulaic for each enemy type but damn do I suck hard at them.
