he used mamadoon on me a couple times but they never hit thanks to fog breath

fog breath is really good and if your not using it on every boss youre failing hard

idiot asshole bitch who should fuck off
apparently xp in strange journey is split between party members? killed the 2nd boss after it murdered every single demon I had & dropped me to 11 hp, and went up from lvl. 17 to lvl 22 instantly. (secret tech...?)

talking to demons is k00l but i miss persona's social link xp. it was real nice to get that boost from doing a fusion. I guess it doesn't matter as much since strange journey's demons don't have big skillsets gained from levelling...

you should definitely keep them around long enough to get sources from them at least

Fog breath is one of those rare RPG skills that you get really early that remains useful for the rest of the game

I hate it when RPGs do this. If you get 200 XP at the end of battle, everyone in your party should get 200 XP, instead of having it split 4 ways.

The demon interaction system is one of the coolest things about SMT. I guess that is coming back in Persona 5? Excited for that.

iirc persona actually makes it take longer to level the demons normally than it usually is in the mainline SMT games, because you can get social link boost exp instead. In the long term it kind of evens out.

Where does it hurt?
in persona 2 if you talk to certain enemies with certain demons in your party if they're connected

mars and ares are happy to see each other but hades and demeter will immediately get pissed at each other

i'm getting sources from about half my demons. it's cool.

being overleveled seems to mean that I get gently caress-all for xp for killing enemies, which means my guys don't level up, which means I'm screwed when it comes to sp restoration. looks like the game got the better of me, after all...
