Persona series

For me, the game winner was a Tzitzimitl with Salome's Kiss and Binding Hands.

Can't remember the Demon, but with Naoto with Hama and Mudo, and Akihiko with Bestial Roar, Quad Link, Golden Link, and all four Elemental links, everything died comically fast.

Yup. The best team in the game is

• P3 Protag
• Aigis
• Naoto
• Kanji/Akihiko/Chie
• P4 Protag/Kanji/Akihiko/Chie

It takes all of the most broken strategies and combines them into one team. It's great.

If you can get Yoshitsune on Junpei you've pretty much won right there, I've found.

Phys attacks are so OP in Q, which naturally makes Junpei, Chie and Kanji the best party members. Shinji, if you can get a Roar onto him, or Akihiko with basically any physical skill also do well.

Generally you also want to go with both MCs, if only so you can upgrade Personas as soon as possible.

"This is bullshit." - Kanji's death quote.

I frickin' agree, Kanji. Wind Corrosion + Magarula spam = bullshit.

change your way it's gonna be alright

;_;

You can be who you want to be...

Change the way you live.

You can go where you want to go

Be who you want to be

Try to be positive, ah-ahh.

Ah, now I'm smiling while feeling crestfallen.

I don't feel as emotional as I did Persona 3 ending but I can't stop mulling over it. So Other Side Tatsuya is stuck without his friends to rebuild on a broken world while their friendship is forever ruined. Holy shit, I can't stop raging at it all. That parting shot of Maya choosing to go on her path without him at that street killed me.

Please tell me there's a silver lining, this is driving me nuts.

That is the silver lining. An actual Downer Ending for a SMT game, or at least a pre-P4 one, would be if the world got blown up and all you could do was create a facsimile of it out of your memori— wait a second...

The ending of P2 is a 80% cocoa chocolate bar, technically bittersweet but much more bitter than sweet.

Damn. It feels wild that the world P3 and P4 were trying to save is a fake.

It was a hell of a ride, certainly worth it. Now I wish there was more shout outs to it. Time to play the first one.

I'm not sure fake is quite the right thing to call This Side's world, but yeah.

As a warning, P1 is kinda rough in terms of how the combat works. It's interesting, but it takes a lot of adjustment.

Also, Elly is the right choice for SEBEC and I will not hear any different.

Canon says they all did Snow Queen and then SEBEC.

Elly is the best choice character despite Reiji's hidden status. Better Persona spread.

If you want to use everyone, though, get Reiji for SEBEC and just use Elly and Brown in Snow Queen. You get a more complete story that way and you get to see all the game's content.

SEBEC is also easy enough that Reiji being on your party doesn't make a huge difference one way or another.

Persona live concert happening at TGS 2015. Hopefully we get some more P5 info.

Aw, I was kind of hoping that they'd get into the story about "Dojima was originally going to be the killer. I've seen mentions of it on the Trivia page and I've always wanted to see the source of that and get a bit more info on how that twist would've worked.

I was hoping for a mention of that as well, and was a little surprised he and Yukiko never came up as possible culprits. What did take me back was the idea of Yousuke being a Gay Option for Yu.

a lot of people refuse to move on from Yosuke being a gay option for Yu.

..what? no, i don't have any salt. what are you talking about?

They also forgot how, early on in the planning phase, Teddie's human form was going to be female.

That explains the thing with him looking so much like Alice when he cross-dresses.

Should have stuck with that version.

If we're talking about P4 and What Could Have Been, was Marie basically what Female Kuma/Teddie should have been?
