Doesn't it say on the box?

And more often than not, the box actually underestimates the time it'll take to go through the game.

Usually the opposite for me. Subtract 20 hours from whatever a box or game review says, and you basically get the play time.

Okay, I rolled a 14. What's that mean? Hsu

Argh, you did it backwards? Are you raging over P3's lack of direct command? (Or are you playing the superior version, P3P, thus it's no issue?)

If you are reading this signature, then you are wasting a great deal of your time.

i wish i was playing p3p because lack of direct command sure is irritating

SURE MITSURU CHARM THE ENEMY WITH 2 HP LEFT INSTEAD OF SLASHING IT WITH YOUR SWORD, GREAT WORK

Are you sick of the fall semester music yet, clang?

I ditched Mitsuru so much in FES.

Then I played P3P and...still didn't use her as a primary fighter as the game moved on, but hey, control over Ice is nice!

Off-topic: Yukiko and Naoto the best non-MC fighters.

Terrible party for balance...two Electric weaknesses? (Also, just terrible because it has non-player controlled Mitsuru. Fuse your own Ice persona.)

The only nice thing about AI controlled party members is that they make battles faster. (And other than Mitsuru, the AI usually does a good job.)

I just bought this game (well, FES but whatever) and will only have ready access to a PS2 for 2 more weeks.

...If this game really takes 70+ hours, these next 2 weeks are going to be interesting. <_<

last time I checked having a party full of maids more than makes up for the minor issue of having two electric weaknesses.

20 is a bit much, unless the game says 70+. I tend to just take about 4/5 of what the box says.

Eh, you'd be surprised just how fast you can actually go through the game if you don't care if every little decision you make is the "correct" one, clang! Like... "months in a single sitting" fast, clang! Of course, if you're doing FES's hard mode, the grind and/or setup for some of those tartarus bosses (ugh, sleeping table, you are evil) would have something to say about any efforts to play through quickly, clang!

If you just got done with the tanks, that's a bit of an overkill level to be at for them, clang! However, everyone's favorite boss is next on the chopping block, so uh... it's not gonna be overkill for long, clang!

My game broke shortly after the final shadow, and bosses have been trivial ever since I got Thor and Siegfried. When do they get hard again? (Hard mode)

I meant Persona 3 in particularly, and no way is it a "50-hour" game.

Just look at Stingers who's 40-hours in and maybe halfway through the game.

--
O........O
...^^^^^...

It took me ~90 hours to beat it I think. Maybe 80

Some of that was grinding for the last boss though!

Ahh, Persona 3. Played P3P, beat girl path, tried to finish the male one, but kept freezing in one particular day, so I had to stop.

P3 so good. The average playtime for most people is usually somewhere between 75-90 hours I think. If you're playing P3FES then you probably have another 15-30 hours on top of that for The Answer portion

You're getting there! Keep going! And then play Persona 4, because that's even better!
