She'd be 7 by the end of P4. It takes place over a year, remember. She'd be 13 by the end of P5. Which makes her older than Ken in P3 (who was 11) So she could easily be a playable character in a spinoff. |

Topic | Persona 5 General Discussion Topic #3 - It's Almost Scary how good I am [spoil?] |
tcaz2 04/22/17 10:02:19 AM #415 | Okay finished the game after having to take a few days break for IRL reasons. Full thoughts as follows: [MAJOR SPOILERS FOR ENTIRE GAME] However, that doesn't mean the game is 100% absolutely perfect in so far as no game truly is. The first and biggest problem is that, despite the incredibly strong cast of characters, barely have any really fun bonding moments. In fact, the game seems to go out of its way to sabotage anything it sets up regarding this, and it kind of baffles me. The celebration events and Hawaii are the biggest culprits of this. Fireworks festival? Sorry, gets rained out. Beach trip? You only get a montage with no dialogue of this games Operation Babe Hunt. Destinyland? It skips the whole thing and you only see them eating afterward as they get the bad news. Hawaii? They don't show anyone actually doing anything, you just kinda go there, have a kind of nice talk with girl of choice, then leave. It's such a weird thing because it's not even like the game doesn't have some great moments with the characters, because there are (Ann having to pretend to pose nude for Yusuke, Makoto getting scared by Futaba, etc). Akechi's plot I feel also should have had more to it. He was such a strong presence over the rest of the game, and then he feels the need to protect a bunch of shadows from you murdering them and 'dies' off screen (if he's actually dead and doesn't come back in some fashion in the future I'll eat my computer). Other than that though it's really just minor gameplay balance issues I have a problem with (and its still probably better than P4G in that regard even with those), and I think all of this is very easy to fix in the inevitable enhanced remake that will come out in the future (Because lets be real, its Atlus, they do it for every game). Also, Futaba best girl. But to be fair, this is the only Persona where I'd say the majority of girls are EXTREMELY close behind, and not even just one or a couple like P4. The only one I wasn't so hot on was Ichiko but even then she wasn't that bad. Overall, am extremely sad its over. It will be hard to get over not being able to play this game and see this cast anymore, just as it was with P3 and P4. |
Topic | Persona 5: Phantoms of Translation |
tcaz2 04/20/17 6:51:51 PM #22 | I mean there are definitely some mistakes, but you literally cannot escape having mistakes in a translation in some form or another, ESPECIALLY in a script this big. You can fine-tooth-comb it 20 times and you're still going to miss things. That's just how translation works. Furthermore, while I agree with the sentiment of 'you have to convey the original intent as if it was written originally in that language' as a principal, that does NOT mean every line has to have perfect grammar. That's completely misconstruing what that adage means. It needs to get the same character development, scene mood, and plot points across as the creator intended. Hell, most of those examples on the site aren't even strictly translation examples, and are stuff you find in purely English works that only people seriously scrutinizing something catches because the average person reading it 'auto corrects' the mistake because they're so familiar with the language and get what its trying to convey through context. That doesn't mean the mistake isn't there and if this were an English test it'd probably not do very well, but it IS being incredibly pedantic about it. Frankly I think whoever made the site is just, well The Mana Sword posted... very up it's own ass. Basically that, yeah. EDIT: It is totally not 'more authentic' or 'more japanese' though, yeah. That's just fanboys fanboying. |

tcaz2 04/17/17 11:42:34 AM #26 | HeroDelTiempo17 posted... Well Persona 4 also had the Fox making SP restoration trivial about halfway through the game. I think it's fine in this game too. You can only get the accessories at a reasonable price once you have a specific social link at Rank 7 in a game that emphasizes doing Social Links gets you some really good shit. Coffee takes time and I only one-shot dungeon 3 by blowing my entire stockpile. Even if I didn't, I still have a handful of Snuff Souls I could have burned if I wanted to use them. This game mitigates being able to one-shot dungeons by having Mementos as another time-killer and also making boss fights use two days. It's probably something they did intentionally. You get the ability to make infinite money in the game at rank 2 for Sun. Price is a complete non-issue after that. And there are plenty of 'crazy abilities' (not that I'd call EITHER of the problem examples here 'crazy abilities' since one is just more options in a shop and one is 'you get all the money ever') in the game that don't completely break it, like pretty much every one of Hifumi's abilities which are all super useful but don't make the game less interesting. |

tcaz2 04/17/17 11:39:06 AM #25 | foolm0r0n posted... SP and money is very difficult and well balanced in the beginning... I think that's fine. Difficulty isn't as important later in the game since you're likely tired of the grind by then. As long as individual boss fights are difficult, it still feels epic. If you have to grind in a game you're doing it wrong or the game is (and I would say over 80% of the time, especially in well known companies games past the NES and maybe some SNES era, its the player and not the game doing it wrong) And if you mean 'you're tired of playing the game by then so who cares' then that's a whole other, much deeper problem that shouldn't be brushed aside because you should never get tired of playing a game to the extent you just want to not play it anymore. That means the game is not well made at all, and I would definitely not say that is the case here. |

Topic | Persona 5 General Discussion Topic #3 - It's Almost Scary how good I am [spoil?] |
tcaz2 04/17/17 10:31:18 AM #17 | Yeah if there's one gameplay balance change I want them to make its to get rid of the SP adhesives or like, make them way harder to acquire somehow (not by money because money is ridiculously plentiful in this game and should probably be rebalanced too) The more I think about some things in the game the more I can definitely say 'this really does need to have an enhanced version'. Both for gameplay balance reasons and story reasons. |

tcaz2 04/16/17 12:23:07 PM #441 | Because the MC is 85% of your fighting strength due to persona swapping If you were able to revive him you would almost never lose any battles because TPKs are exceedingly rare and recovery items/healing are so strong in this series. And the game gives you tons of ways to deal with instant death attacks. I've never died to an instant death attack in P5 and I'm at the end of the game, and it was exceedingly rare in P3 and 4 as well once I got used to it being a thing. |

tcaz2 04/15/17 12:55:10 AM #366 | Mac Arrowny posted... I like that the villain's name was revealed in the Devil Confidant before actually finding it in the game. Or at least, I assume he's the main villain. We'll have to see what twists there are... (Just replying to you in spoilers so as not to give people more indication of what you mean, not actual spoilers past that) Also if anyone is ACTUALLY blaming Morgana about the sleep thing they're dumb. The point isn't that Morgana is annoying about it, it's that the game makes you go to sleep too much when it literally doesn't make sense ('oh there was a 5 minute scene of everyone talking, clearly you are too tired to do anything else that day despite normal days being much more involved than that'), and that it's way more than P3 and P4 did (and yes I realize P5 has way more active time in general, but it doesn't FEEL like it does because of how often this comes up). Morgana has nothing to do with it, it's a gameplay decision. |

I use them for damage in tough fights/boss fights if the boss doesn't have a weakness to what that character has and there is nothing better to do. So not often, but it does happen. They tend to do more damage than a non-resistant spell if you unload the max into them. And Haru's gun is really great for damage in general. |

I'm right before sending the calling card for palace 4 and it was all I could do to scrape up the money for 4 Invigorate 1 patches. Money making spoilers? Also unrelated to that, I think the P5 cast individually is very strong and has a lot of depth to them, but yeah they really don't have the same chemistry as the P4 cast. I think the #1 thing I want in an improved remake is just 'more scenes of the cast together hanging out' like how they added events in Golden. The #2 thing (possibly to counterbalance the time this would take up) is to stop having Morgana make you go to sleep so often. |
