Let's Play Persona 5

Well I beat the game :)

 

I actually thought I had posted my thoughts but I guess not :P

 

The game was fantastic (not as good as P4G but fantastic). I actually really loved the ending and the Velvet Room scene with everyone was really sad and well done. I also love that even after everything and they are about to get in Makoto's truck and drive away Yusuke still doesn't want to do anything ^_^ 

 

My main team was Joker, Queen, Noir and Fox as those were my favourite characters. I do find it funny though as I was reading the guide's recommendations for beating the Twins it seems that Haru and Yusuke are less desirable than Ann and Ryugi...but I don't care :D. 

 

Anyways I got everything done on my first playthrough (except the Hostage trophy) so my next playthrough will just be spent focusing on the twins. I will probably start that after this weekend.

 

 

Also as a side note, I am playing Life is Strange now and Persona is still leaking into my brain. I keep pressing L1 to use my Third Sense when trying to find stuff in this game and I keep rewinding time. It has seriously happened at least 5 or 6 times. Also there was a part where the security guard was looking for us in the locker room and I press X to hide behind a locker...which didn't work :P

Nice, congrats :yay: . So who did you romance? Also now that you completed the story, I can finally elaborate on this:

Spoiler

In a way Shido was Batman, as in Joker's arch nemesis :awesome: .

 

The party setup doesn't really matter, as they all have a weakness. The same applies for the equipment, as I did it without any of those. The tips for the fight are just for people who are struggling a lot with it.

 

The hostage trophy is probably the most annoying one. I recommend to play on Safe difficulty, so that Joker can't die. Keep in mind that you can't switch difficulties while on Safe, so make an alternate save file if you want to get the trophy out of the way.

 

Lol, have fun with Life is Strange.

Ah, I get the joke now ^_^ Also I don't know if it was your intention with the Ocean's 11 reference you made with the Casino level but the game ends with people in a car on the look out for you which is kind of how Ocean's 11 ends as well

Spoiler

 

 

I ended up romancing Makoto but that was before I met Haru and I wish I had waited for her :D I ended up Youtubing all of her scenes because she just made me laugh the most out of all the female characters (obviously Yusuke had the best lines out of everybody). Her complete surprise out of anyone paying attention to her just made it so worth it.

 

I see about the characters. My plan at the end was just using my Colossal damage attacks and then having Makoto heal me when I needed it. That worked pretty well against almost everything after the Casino so didn't need to change strategy really. I mean it would have been better to probably take Haru out of there but her Psy attacks did good damage and she had the ability to remove ailments so I liked keeping her around (and as I mentioned her lines were some of the funniest).

 

But after Life is Strange and Persona I will need to play a game that doesn't have teenagers talking...I can't take anymore Prolly or Hella for a long time

That didn't even occur to me, it was meant as a reference to the casino :lol: .

 

Ok, you can always romance Haru during the second playthrough. Just remember that the levels are reset for everyone, except the personas in the compendium, so party members won't have colossal damage attacks anymore.

Yeah, but Joker will still have it if I buy my Lucifer out of the Velvet Room...so that is something :D

In between studying my ass off for a test, I'm trying to find P5 time. I'm on 12/18 and it's gut-wrenching that I will probably end up having everyone maxed out except 2 that will be at level 7 or 8 on my BLIND playthrough. If I would've had the 100,000 to fork up to Mifune, I would have made it! Agh! Oh well, guess I'll be giving that second playthrough a go soon!

 

Though, I am not even close to finishing up getting all the Personas, chalk that up for a second playthrough as well!

It's ok, if you max a confidant in this playthrough, it maxes out faster on the second.

 

I only maxed 3? Confidants in my first. But I don't have to do video games or stats or some other stuff so it's not as bad.

I maxed out my social stats early in the game and then just focused on confidants in the second half of the game or so. I didn't plan that out very well, but I wanted to ensure that they were maxed out before the end of my first playthrough.

 

As for video games and books, I made a save in November to finish that up.

Before going to ng+ max out the fortune teller. Unless you did, your original post indicated you were going to have to max them out on the second playthrough. If that's the case, the fortune teller is extremely helpful

Nice, congrats :yay: . Since you beat P5 after this event started, you're eligible for a trophy. Those mostly serve as a memento of playing P5 and you can put them in your sig, profile, or wherever you want.

Good luck with the test. Sucks that you won't be able to max out all confidants. I ended up with Devil at rank 9 while maxing out everyone else on a blind playthrough, so reloaded an older save and maxed them all out.

Only if you plat P5 7 more times :awesome: . To add something to the sig, go to your username in the upper right corner while in the Forums, click on Account Settings -> Signature.

As a legit request...would there be able to be one more plat reward where it is the Phantom Thieves logo instead of a character face? 

 

I am having a hard time picking which one I would like and I was wondering if that was possible

It should be possible. I'm surprised you're not going for the Haru trophy though.

Well it was between Haru and Yusuke :) But the thing is no one in this game is Chie level so I didn't know if I want to choose anyone over the other. I mean in the end Joker makes the most sense...but once again I like Yusuke and Haru more.

 

So that is why I thought "well if I get the generic trophy then it is for the whole phantom thieves"

 

If it is not possible I will have to choose between Noir and Fox

 

EDIT-that is IF I CAN EVER GET THIS STUPID HOSTAGE TROPHY...rant over :(

Finally got the Hostage trophy 

 

A Jack Frost knocked Ann down and demand my life for it. I was shaking so much thinking I was going to screw it up but after giving my life twice he released her and the trophy popped.

 

Now to lay down a beating on every monster in this dungeon so they know that that shit isn't allowed.
