Dunno if it has changed much from when I played but most of the fun was in trying to break poo poo or do weird stuff to the world, the story was thin and at times just incomprehensible, if you're stuck it's entirely possible that the game itself is broken, I'd probably just play with a walkthrough

Re: S-Links in Persona 3 in case anybody is crazy to play the original or FES: the timer for reversal is 60 days. When a girl hits level 7 then it subtracts 15 days each time you see another girl. Not once did I get an S-link in reversal so I'm going to assume it's really difficult to do.limp_cheese posted:Seriously. Let me have my month of high school anime hijinks then this thread can go back to Mass Effect and Fallout until the next Souls title comes out.

Any spoiler free tips for the three? - Completing main missions will lock you out of doing some side missions, so if you want to be thorough you shouldn't rush the story. - Most of the singleplayer DLC is pretty good. Neddy Seagoon posted:There's a safety threshold of two missions, so you can go do Legion's loyalty mission and one other thing before you're in trouble. And that one other thing can be Tali's mission, and it's a hoot if you take Legion along.

limp_cheese posted:Anything for Torment: Tales of Numenera? As with all games by Monte Cook if you dont play someone with the mental stat as the primary stat just go home. Your first priority when leveling up is always increasing your edge in whatever that characters primary stat is. Anything else is a trap option until you do that, because the developers couldnt fix every terrible decision Monte Cook makes. There little girl you can recruit takes a long time to power up and shes hard to get rid of. If you do tons of quests with her in the party in the first area you can easily get her past that long before you ever have a second fight in the game. Peacefully solve the end of the quest that recruits her for a special dialog ability. Join the church of the Changing God ASAP as it gives you a free place to rest. Without it you will be insanely broke just trying to sleep to the point where it feels like Monte Cook refused to accept you wouldnt want to join them which is probably the case. There are several characters not associated with quests who through dialog give you permanent stat upgrades. Talk to everyone always forever and do all their dialog. There is 0 drawback to installing all the surgical upgrades into your body other than the monetary cost. Yes, this is stupidly balanced and youd be an idiot not to get all of the passive buffs installed. Items labeled as oddities are for sale only. Dont bother hanging onto them. Before completing the main quest in the necropolis, cash in all your sidequests. The game teleports you away forever once you finish it so buhbye xp.

Been trying to get up to date on Walking Dead lately and it's making me want to start playing State of Decay again. Are there any mods I can use that'll make it pretty much just securing places and gathering supplies and people? I remember trying to handle morale being a pain in the rear end.

limp_cheese posted:Anything for Torment: Tales of Numenera? We hit this earlier. All oddities are safe to sell unless it has an interact button, in which there will be some flavor and in one case help with a puzzle. There's also a ropelike oddity that can be used to solve a puzzle, but if I remember correctly, you don't have a chance to sell it before it gets used. There's an opportunity to upgrade your armor from Lady Anshe. She's in a little town that you reach though a portal. She's only available for a short time and you have to get it done then.

Persona 5 The Death confidant is game-changing. Once you get her to rank 5, she sells some expensive accessories that recover SP each turn in battle. It's expensive (The best is 100k for a 7 SP/turn accessory), but it extends the productive time you can spend in dungeons ridiculously. At confidant rank 7, she cuts her prices in half, so you might want to grind up to rank 7 before you buy them for the whole party. The Sun confidant is entirely optional (and I'll leave specifics about him out of this), but his abilities let you extort vastly more money out of Hold Ups. Basically he lets you keep asking for money again and again from the same fight. Each time you ask for more money there's a chance the enemies will start fighting you again, but I've gotten up to 6 times as much money from a single hold up. If you're finding yourself poor, he's a good option to pursue. Bedurndurn fucked around with this message at 10:17 on Apr 17, 2017 |

I'm going to play Persona 3 Portable on a really long flight in the near future, and that means no internet, so can anyone suggest to me some things that I need to know about it? The last Persona/SMT game I played was Devil Survivor, and that was immensely frustrating when it locked me into endings that I didn't want, and I really don't want a repeat of that. I also don't NG+ so tell me what I need to do to get it right the first time. the last smt game i played before that was revelations tds

The White Dragon posted:I'm going to play Persona 3 Portable on a really long flight in the near future, and that means no internet, so can anyone suggest to me some things that I need to know about it? Persona 3 only has one real ending. There is a bad ending, but it's the immediate kind with flashing lights and fair warning that has a rollback afterwards. Max out Junpei's S.Link early for a better ending. Keep your Sunday's free. There are a handful of S.Links that are only available on that day (the young man at the shrine, The online game, aaaand I think one other?). To get Mitsuru's S.Link available you have to wow her with your exam scores. You need level 2 Knowledge for the midterms in May (along with correct answers to the multi-choice questions), or max-level for the late-game ones iirc. Rainy days are best used for studying, because you get a bonus point out of it. Invite a friend to study with you for bonus points into their S.Link.

The White Dragon posted:I'm going to play Persona 3 Portable on a really long flight in the near future, and that means no internet, so can anyone suggest to me some things that I need to know about it? Unlike SMT, your ending in Persona 3 is a choice and it's the difference between non-ending the game will scold you for and the actual end game. Everything on the beforeiplay article is fine, P3P is a far more casual game suited for pick up and play. I just finished FES and managed to max everyone except three of the six girls. If you want to get the most out of the game in a single play here are my tips Always talk to someone with a matching persona. You can get up to rank 3 without it but beyond that having a matching persona will save you about 1 wasted day per level. If anyone calls you to hang out on a Sunday, ignore them until you finish the Hermit and Sun links. Hermit is only available on breaks and Sun only on Sundays. Sun will level up each time you talk to him no matter what. You want to level up a link before hanging out with them on Sundays because they'll be ready to level again after the meeting. Prioritize your school links. They're not available in the week leading up to exams or when school is closed. The exception is Moon who is a student but doesn't hang out at school so you can talk to him during breaks. One school link doesn't become available until you level Heirophant a little. When you have nothing to do at night, do an activity that raises your stats. Prioritize checking the arcade each night to see if the horror or quiz game are available because they give a huge boost to courage/knowledge. Three of the girls won't talk to you unless you have a maxed stat. When you're done with Sunday links or when you have absolutely no one to talk to on a break or something, go to the shrine and pick a character you just leveled up. This will almost always make them ready to level up again so you don't waste a day. The Aeon arcana becomes available in January and you have just enough time to max them. al-azad fucked around with this message at 13:06 on Apr 16, 2017 |

Feel free to do them if they're on the way to a more interesting objective, but to my recollection all the "scan 10 plants/rocks/enemies" just end up with someone saying "thanks" and a generic reward. The plant quest actually bugged out on me and I couldn't find the NPC to finish it. Ainsley McTree fucked around with this message at 17:51 on Apr 16, 2017 |

If you click on where it says "Files", in between "Desc" and "Images", there is a version there that supposedly works for non-YOSE. I will warn you that influence becomes more important but more bullshit in this mod. Your storage locker has a limited amount of space and this mod includes your survivors passively finding weapons and putting them in the locker. They seem to favor heavy weapons that cost a lot of influence to take out. This mod makes everything cost 0 influence but I don't know if it works for non-YOSE. limp_cheese fucked around with this message at 21:10 on Apr 16, 2017 |

There's less examples of the game outright trolling you via quests, so the majority of them are worth doing in one way or another. But definitely wait until you unlock fast travel about a third of the way through the game. Also, its impossible to miss any quests (there's one optional ending you can miss, tied to a bonus boss) so don't worry about scouring every end of the map until the end of your third playthrough.

Something to add for Persona 5; Don't bother reading the books that tell you about Hangout spots. You will encounter all of them by endgame just from going there with other people for their own Confidant rank-up events, or even main-story events. The only ones worth reading are for the Shrine (praying adds 2 points to one of your Confidant relationships) and Fishing Spots (opens up a place to go fishing).
