[Persona] I bought it during the Persona sale and I’m playing it as my first Atlus game, but it feels lacking in various aspects.

Japan Otaku Reviews+

Since consumables are quite expensive, I buy a lot of side dishes every day, stock up on croquettes on rainy days, and empty the contents of the vending machine every week.

I exchanged my weapon for a jewel, but it seems like using my persona to attack doesn’t increase damage much. Does the weapon not really matter?

1: Japan Otaku Reviews

For now, weakness magic is important.

In other words, SP is important.

2: Japan Otaku Reviews

Wasn’t the weapon’s attack power not applied to the persona’s skills?

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

The weapon’s attack power is almost meaningless if you don’t perform regular attacks.

The status-up effect attached to weapons has some significance.

4: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s still Yukiko’s Castle, but there are plenty of Shadows that have resistance to physical attacks, and since the protagonist has to handle Agi, Gi, Hama, and Mudo, they’ll have to do some fighting to manage SP.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews

Hamamudo is patience.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you don’t join the full attack, does that mean regular attacks make the weapon really just an accessory?

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>6

The total attack will have the weapon’s stats applied.

The all-out attack is universally effective, but it is not the Persona that is dealing the blows, but a human.

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

I mean, in this game, the persona is like a weapon.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

So, should I just use a quick agility katana or a critical-up nail bat for a while and invest money in armor?

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is it enough to think that the equipment only affects the part where a person directly strikes?

So, won’t things like slash or charge get affected by the “occasionally poisoned” effect of the poison kunai?

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>10

Not riding.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews

For now, let’s start by searching the vending machines for SP juice.

In the end, I end up conserving it.

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Managing SP resources feels the most like I’m playing Persona.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

Our protagonist rushes to the restroom when school ends, then heads to Junes to go shopping and dashes into the shopping district to buy up fried foods, so they probably have a strange nickname.

15: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

Whether or not to ride, after all, it’s better to buy weapons!

16: Japan Otaku Reviews

For now, I want you to know a design that focuses on exploiting weaknesses, so I thought the first dungeon would be set up to use attributes quite a bit.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

I had the impression that there were more resources available than when I was reusing the compress.

Maybe it’s because I’m recovering with tarot.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>17

In 345, it seems that even the spring big antics can’t be used, so fighting with Kamoshida’s 5 is the toughest in terms of resource management.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

I didn’t really think about it much, but since there are many opportunities to obtain weapons, it might be okay to prioritize armor when buying from shops.

I can’t buy everything anyway.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I tried to ask for Bufu, Chie-chan hadn’t learned Bufu until level 6, so the teacher was also in charge of Bufu until her level increased. Kuma, please collect more candies.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

At Princess Yukiko’s castle, it might be good to go back and forth between the first and second floors to collect items like Snuff Souls from treasure chests.

After that, should I prioritize taking the cups during shuffle time? I felt like that had SP recovery too.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

As soon as I became part of the team, I thought my teammate could exploit the boss’s weakness! But then the boss also targets that teammate’s weakness, which is terrible.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>22

Originally, Chie herself has the ice attribute, but she has Mahajio just to exploit Yosuke’s weakness…

23: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Wasn’t 5 easier? It was a bit frustrating that it had to be multiple times due to the notification, but there was no need to worry about the special program anyway.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>23

The tightness of the SP in the very early stages feels more than 34.

Especially above hard.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

Make sure to defend properly.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>24

Yosuke was caught off guard at the start by Chie-chan’s Shadow’s Mahajio, so he initially goes into guard.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

For now, I was raising the picked persona as the Emperor, and the slime and Ukobach learned resistances, so it looks like I’ll be using them for a while.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

The P series has a low priority for weapons because their normal attacks aren’t that strong.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

Come to think of it, I don’t really remember buying weapons.

I only have the impression that online shopping is great.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

Yukiko Castle is struggling with that cross that looks like a scale.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

Leave the freezing to the bear.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want to use Izanami because its resistance is excellent, but there’s nothing more to learn, so maybe it’s better to combine it and create a new Izanami eventually.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

A routine of buying croquettes every day and emptying the vending machine.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

About Izanagi? I can bring it out from the complete book anytime, and it’s fine to merge and keep erasing as much as I want.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if the teacher did kendo or something…

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

You can always pile up as much as you want later with cards and shuffle time…

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

With G, the tarot enhancement is so strong that you can make it through to the end with just Izanami, so the freedom in gameplay is quite high.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

I keep mixing up Izanagi and Izanami…

41: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Izanami is a woman and Izanagi is a man, so that’s how you remember it.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

Some people even remove Chie’s ice attack because it doesn’t deal much damage.

50: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>42

There are many times when I’d prefer to quickly blast them away with firepower rather than just taking them down.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews

On rainy days, shopping can be more beneficial, but you can’t socialize at all…

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s standard to be stingy and clear levels using SP recovery skills.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

Compared to the initial personas of 3 and 5, Nagi-san has excellent resistance.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>45

I really feel the excellence of dark resistance when I do Q.

Arsène has darkness resistance too, but in Q2, the mudo doesn’t come flying in like it does in Q.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>52

Even after awakening, they are still a messiah, so Q1’s P3 will never lose their dark weakness.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think 4 is probably the easiest in the series because you recover SP during shuffle time and get quite a few SP items from treasure chests.

It’s a hassle, but doing low-intensity marathons can make things easier.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

Omoi Kane-kun! Are you going to remember the resistance too, Omoi Kane-kun!

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t even remember if Chie-chan’s freezing element was strengthened in G.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>48

Bufura will remember.

Around that time, other characters will have learned the Dine type.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

Do you remember the girls in Izana-bi?

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

Perhaps it’s because of the influence of anime, but more people seem to think that they must always carry Izanagi with them.

Arsène is forcibly turned into a pot.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

I mean, you can make it so that you can get a lot of gold from the results in custom difficulty, right?

54: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

In the early stages of Persona, it’s true that everyone rushes to buy drinks.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

After all, Chie-chan only has Bufura…

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

Izanagi has resistance to darkness, and Tackle and Rakunda are useful…

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ve done it with Izanagi’s restriction, but it felt like a regular RPG… so it wasn’t that difficult.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is it because enemies with high physical resistance can easily be attacked with non-physical attacks?

61: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>58

Don’t you want it to end with just training and auto?

It seems that using skills well makes it faster to finish the minor battles quickly.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>58

When you play in the style of Megaten, you get scared from the beginning when you see physical immunity.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

The castle of Princess Yukiko is the most difficult of all.

The range of strategies that can be taken will expand, making it gradually easier.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

If the opponent has no weaknesses, then I guess I’ll have to just beat them down with sheer force…

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>64

In such times, it’s the bust type.

Something like a lion or a wrestler.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>64

Atlas’s lack of weaknesses generally makes it susceptible to status ailments.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since managing SP in the series is a hassle, I’ve been using save-load at the mid-point to randomly aim for Ibuki’s yell to make it easier.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

In P3P, I used Tamlin, which you can obtain very early, because it has great resistance, but in 4, you can only get it in the middle of the game.

Even the 3R had its weaknesses pointed out and was weakened…

By the time I got to the end of 4G, I was just using Kaguya all the time.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s common for Atlas games to be difficult only in the beginning…

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

Once you make Yoshitsune, that’s it.

Hey…

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

Was there a Persona that got used up for a while in 4?

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>70

Jaakufuriyosuto

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>70

Personally, I like Tamlin.

83: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>70

Yoshitsune

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>70

Trumpeter

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

It gave me the impression that Mitsuo and Ikutame were quite strong in high difficulty levels.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even so, when you start getting tired, it becomes easier to recover later, so it turns into a physical auto mode.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you use something stiff and not very good, like a tentacle monster, it’s fine to let it shoot some attacks.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even though the abnormal status area doesn’t show any information related to weaknesses, it seems that the weakness settings themselves are still present…

Is that why the knight of Yukiko Castle was really confused by Chie-chan?

77: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m not biting.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

In P4, I was using instant-death techniques like crazy in normal battles.

Naoto is surprisingly convenient in that regard.

82: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>78

In weak battles, Naoto is strong.

Especially, Rakudo and Magatsu have many weaknesses against Hamudo, so they are useful.

91: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>78

I was told I was the maca leaf person when it came to Muji, but after that my works became too flashy.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

Seriously, there’s no point in spoilers at this point, so let’s just mess with the experience points, money, and damage taken.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you could analyze status ailments from the very beginning, it wouldn’t be very interesting.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

Personally, I think it’s okay to mess around with money.

Managing financial resources isn’t particularly enjoyable.

85: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have a memory of playing a lot of Hamamudo with Yuu and the detective in Paradise of Heaven, and then it just ended.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I start thinking about SP (Super Play), the physics gets too strong.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

Personally, I had been using the max communication Scathach for 3 and 4, but I was sad to see it turn into a weakling wandering around the space station in 5.

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

On rainy days, I can’t recommend socializing, so I read books or study… but I also want to eat a bowl of rice…

90: Japan Otaku Reviews

Because weaklings and money make it easy for Naoto to grow, he ends up being a constant presence.

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

Naito is significantly overpowered in G.

99: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>92

It seemed like something like a justice shield was lawless.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even in Muji, instant death for weak enemies was convenient, right?

94: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that not using Nakuto in 4 really hit hard, considering how much they ramped him up in the later works.

95: Japan Otaku Reviews

In terms of gameplay, Naoto from PQ was the strongest…

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

Sexually!?

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, they were strong sexually as well.

98: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s big, you know.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews

The only flaw of Naoto is that joining is late and the threshold to start communication is high.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

If I save Yukiko, the exam is already here! I shouldn’t be saving Yukiko right now!

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

Personally, I have a memory of relying on Rakshasa in the early to mid-game for physical, but I can’t remember if it was in the original version or G.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

In G, I think if you spend Christmas together, you get a costume, so it became easier to be chosen by completionists.

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

In minor battles, take the initiative and defeat them basically without taking any damage.

In the second half, if you get caught off guard, you will be completely wiped out.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

I can’t tell the difference between when the enemy charges straight at me and when they lead me in a certain direction.

106: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>105

It’s not a difference in levels.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

Tamlin from P4 has physical resistance with four weaknesses and no weaknesses of its own. It learns Maharakuka Auto, and as a material, it can learn Mahatarukaja Auto, so it was useful with a performance that makes it suitable for an opening Persona.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wish I had a Persona that can effortlessly wipe out enemies with reckless crazy techniques like Yoshitsune at level 5.

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>108

Ten thousand mantras

111: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>108

It’s not as good as Yoshitsune, but it feels like you could buy the DLC Kaguya from the very beginning of the original game and that Shining Arrow was quite smooth.

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want to see a summary of the combined forecast more clearly…

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kaguya sent from my parents’ house.

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

Kaguya will ride the W Booster, so depending on her mood, she could deal more damage than Yoshitsune.

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

Baby baby baby baby baby baby baby

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

So that’s what hashi-tobi is…

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

I am cramming for exams using a makeshift study method I learned from reading books.

117: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I saw the words for physical reflection lined up in Kaguya’s next skill after leveling up, I laughed so hard I almost had a runny nose.

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>117

Isn’t it too early to remember at 22…? Plus, with the curse immunity, it already felt invincible.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s just a big jump…

119: Japan Otaku Reviews

In metaphor, the eight-piece leap has become relatively weak.

121: Japan Otaku Reviews

The armor I found at Yukiko Castle has double fire evasion! I was happy to have it for Chie-chan, but the evasion itself is low for this armor…

122: Japan Otaku Reviews

Spoiler

The final boss is a gas station clerk.
