Kent10201 Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 What I did is just spend 1 day in the TV world. If you find the enemies too difficult, just stay on the floor you are on plus the floor above and below and grind levels. If you find that you're losing too much SP, there's the fox, and you should be able to find useful HP and SP items from the treasure chests. If all else fails, you could spend 2 days there but no more. When you run out of items, just go back to real world buy items and go back another day. The most important trophy/thing you want on your first playthrough is to max all your stats (Knowledge, Courage, Diligence, etc). Thanks for the advice. I was having the same issues as PoupiMyu as I have never played a persona game and did not no what to focus on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I started the game yesterday and played for about 4 hours throughout the day. I like the game so far, the story is interesting but the time limit to rescue people is a bit stress-inducing. I have almost ten days to rescue the first person and I feel a bit lost about what to do except going into the TV and grind levels. I was a bit surprised to see monsters and skills from SMT Digital Devil Saga, it makes me feel kinda nostalgic. I got the first three trophies : The Other Self 90.36% Advantage Mine 83.52% Fashion Plate 77.09% Thanks for the advice.

PoisedTorment Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 So, like I said in my first post, I just saved Yukiko. I'm follow in video guides to do everything I can in the first playthrough. A few days before I saved her the video had me go to basketball practice. In the video, he got an S link up, and I didn't, so my question is: can I make up the lost time, should I restart while I'm not far in, or should I worry about it in playthrough 2 if there's no way to catch up?

There's a lot of time to make up for it as long as you're on the True Ending route. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basketball can be quite tricky, I wouldn't use a video, why not the max s-link guide? Because with basketball there's a possibility to miss certain books because you have to be at a certain level. If this is your first playthrough, it doesn't matter. Your goal is to be on the True Ending and have max stats. If this is your second one, then it is important to be at the same level as the guide. Otherwise on another day in the near future, you have to make sure to hang out with the guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you explain why did you decide to use a video guide? Unless it's a COMPLETE guide including everything the maker does, video guides tend to skip less important part but in P4G case, they can explain discrepancies between your and guide's playthroughs. You are definitely better off following a text walkthrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myu Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 New update : I played for five more hours yesterday, I'm getting pretty addicted to this game! I focused on Social Links and improving my stats and I completed the first dungeon. The second dungeon shouldn't be very far now. I've been trying to fold paper cranes for a least 5 days but each time, something else comes up. It's so frustrating! Six new trophies : Grasping at Greed 75.04% Persona Shopper 52.88% A Prince Appears 76.38% It's Working Today 47.34% A Favor for Marie 72.50% The Nose doesn't Always Know 40.60% I really don't like Chie's voice actress, she's getting on my nerves.

Myu Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 New Update : 2nd dungeon completed. The third victim has not been announced yet. Kanji is definitely my favorite character so far! That guy is hilarious! All of my stats are Rank 3, I have the feeling I'm progressing smoothly, what do you think?

cease2123 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Oh man did I cut it close.. I finished all Social Links (besides Hunger) and books on the second to last day available. I thought I wasn't gonna get it there for a while as I had like 6 days left to finish and couldn't find Rise for like 3 of those days (who was the only person I needed left at lvl 8 at the time). But luckily she went to find me during lunch on the previous day and I was able to rank her up to lvl 9 with just 2 days left. I hung out with her again later that night to set her up to finish up the social link the next day, and then read the final half of the last book at night. Trophy popped, and set myself up for the max social link trophy with one day to spare. With that last day I'm working on grinding up a bit so I can fuse the last remaining personas that I can, and then I'm going after the reaper. I'll work on the Marie trophy after and then will have the True Ending to set myself up for the last playthrough and the platinum. Seriously tho, this game has just completely cut into my 100% Summer Backlog competition goals. I lost an entire week because I was too addicted and decided to play this while I was home rather than sticking to my rule of only playing on the commutes to/from work or wherever I'm traveling to, and working on the backlog games at home on the PS3/4. But after this playthrough I'll take a little break to catch up on that and some books I've yet to read (IRL ) on the train instead. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myu Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 New Update : Third dungeon is over. It's now Summer Break! 6 new trophies : Lucky Me Granter of Your Desires Fusion Expert An Acquired Taste The Lounge is Closed Head of the class Since I've been mostly using skills like zio, bufu, agi, etc, to exploit weaknesses, I feel like Izanagi doesn't really fit the job, his mag stat is too low and only increase when I use cards on him.

I also have some random persona for healing, but I already had the feeling Izanagi wasn't enough at the beginning of the second dungeon I can create personas up to level 49.

Wow You should definitely change ASAP I can create personas up to level 49. Since you weren't changing Personas, you should fuse the highest leveled Persona you can (both magic-oriented and physical-oriented) and then just use whichever Persona you like =D Edu has a point with Frosty, but I'm not sure if you have all required Personas.
