We were expecting so little, and it was still a letdown. The symphonic concert might at least be a good listen if they're streaming the whole thing as they should be. (plague)

This is so lame. I know it's a meme at this point, but it's like Atlus doesn't want to make money.

Atlus seems to primarily focus on the Japanese domestic market and PC gaming still isn't really a thing over there. Their general reaction to the Persona series' recent overseas popularity is "huh, that's cool I guess". That and there's probably moneyhatting by Sony involved (iirc Sony did the localization work for P5)

Probably mainly just that starting the anniversary announcement series with a nothingburger, especially when when that's the announcement for the actual anniversary, seems pretty weird. But other than that, there's no reason to think this was gonna be huge, no.

The first time I realized Makoto’s VA was in Deathloop there me for a loop (pun intended). I know she’s everywhere but for some reason the absolute lunacy of her character in that game contrasted with Makoto is funny; the only thing they have in common is that they’re 18 year old girls. Although now I kinda want to see Makoto with that perfect high ponytail

Holy poo poo that's her? I immediately recognized her voice in the Final Fantasy Origin trailer but totally did not clock that she was the VA for Fia. There's an audio log where she's recording voice lines for a game in the game and doing a hilariously bad job of it... So meta

Cherami Leigh has pretty good range, yeah. She was also Mae in Shadows of Valentia and Rhea in FE Three Houses, who are fairly distinct from each other.

As a Fairy Tail fan, I was super excited to have Cherami Leigh in a Persona game. Then she voiced Makoto. Disappoint. I remember when this game came out somebody on here was very critical of her performance, said it lacked passion or spirit or something. I mean..it kinda did but I figured that was just Makoto.

I had also just heard her voice in SoV which is why it was fresh in my head, that character is much more in line with what I’ve heard her in before. I also learned that she was the female MC voice in Cyberpunk, which I played but picked the male character so I never actually heard her voice. Looking at it on YT that one has her in an entirely different register, probably because she’s playing an actual adult. NikkolasKing posted:As a Fairy Tail fan, I was super excited to have Cherami Leigh in a Persona game. She gives a good performance in P5R, her face turn wouldn’t have nearly as much meaning if she didn’t sell Makoto as both very principled and also very impulsive, like a weird little teen cop. It’s not her fault Makoto’s social link sucks. She’s also good in Strikers, she gets a lot of fun things to do in that game. It also doesn’t help that you spend the most time in P5 with two of the best VA performances in the game (Ann and Ryuji)

I'm playing Persona 5 for the first time and have a question for the thread since googling P5 questions is a spoiler minefield: what is the mechanic that determines the cash you receive via negotiations? It seems really swingy, my best guess is your first x captures are boosted, plus maybe a bonus if you have that persona in your roster at the time, is that it? Also if anyone has some non-spoiler 'things I wish I knew' tips I'd appreciate it. I'm at the second palace and just got stopped by the peacock door chamber, and I'm grinding out encounters before I leave for reference. metasynthetic fucked around with this message at 10:06 on Sep 22, 2021 |

Are you playing the original Persona 5 or Persona 5 Royal? Try to get a Sandman with Pulinpa, Confuse Boost and maybe a high Luck stat before getting too far into Mementos. Confusing the minibosses is your main way of grinding for cash in the base game and your initial way of getting cash before you can max out the money boost in P5R.

I was watching the Story of Seasons LP on TheStrawHatNO's channel and thanks to Youtube recommendations I saw they're doing a P5R playthrough as well. I only played Strikers and know absolutely nothing about the original game so I figured I'd watch, since they're a really fun group. But I have to ask something because it's bugging the hell out of me. It's established when the Phantom Thieves are running from the mind controlled townspeople in Okinawa that they can't do Phantom Thief stuff in the real world, since Zenkichi suggests that as a method of escape. So I'm completely lost how the cops were able to arrest and apprehend Joker from the cognitive world. Is this ever explained?

Love that this was an announcement ultimately for an announcement in December. Pretty sure this isn't even the first time that's happened, either. ApplesandOranges posted:Cherami Leigh has pretty good range, yeah. She was also Mae in Shadows of Valentia and Rhea in FE Three Houses, who are fairly distinct from each other. She was Olga in Ys 8 which took me a while to realise, because that's the most different I've ever heard her sound.

Yup, Sandman's gonna be a Mementos mainstay in your party then. In addition - there are special weather conditions that will appear periodically in the real world that impact the Metaverse. Flu season would be the best for grinding levels in Mementos.

Commander Keene posted:Yes, the game does eventually explain that. Okay, good. I know it's a weird thing to get hung up on but it's just because Strikers explicitly addresses that issue, if I hadn't played it I wouldn't care. That said I've already see two characters who weren't in Strikers so I'm interested to see who they are and what's up with them (well okay, I already know who one of them is from watching a few cutscenes from Q2, but the other is a complete mystery).

Strikers had the team being complete pros at infiltration and thievery so it's kind of fun to see them just starting out and having no idea what they're doing. I was also surprised at how fast P5 throws you into the combat and dungeon exploration. If I recall it was like three or four hours before you got into a fight in P4 (aside from the opening dream sequence) and you couldn't even freely run around in a dungeon for another hour or so after that. Also I gotta say I'm a fan of Sojiro telling the MC every single night "Don't forget, you're on probation and if you mess up your life is over!" as well as Kamoshida going "Ha ha you're all expelled, your lives are over!" and then actually no wait that's not for two weeks. Maybe Japanese schools work differently? I think here at least the principal can just go "Yep you're expelled" and that's that. Even so it's still odd that the MC was already told "If you do anything wrong you're out on your rear end" so theoretically even ignoring Ryuji and Mishima, Kamoshida should be able to just tell the principal "Hey he threatened me" and that would be enough to get him expelled right away. I know the game has to have some reason why it's not immediate since you can't necessarily do the Palace in one go, but it still sticks out as weird to me.

Kamoshida enjoys the sadistic pleasure of holding your expulsion over your head and watching you squirm, he also doesn't feel at all threatened by you so he doesn't intend to actually report you until the next faculty meeting.
