i just realized
there's no limited pulls in the launch gift
even the most greedy gacha games give that😭
they really don't want ppl to reroll
dense oar
Oh my god the goddamn casino again
Reliving the older days….
Oh hello this shit is glitching
This is fun oh my god
What the fuck
what a way to change the scene I remember
mf why is your phone floating like that
Love that the persona 5 soundtrack is still being used
I did say I was gonna do this in the channel 
I missed you igor 
lufel looking hip in the metaverse
that's actually rather fitting here, persona 5 has always had a theme in relation to desires - this seems to be looking more into a lack of it, having little to no desires to change your fate/life just leads to the same monotony 
P5/P5R did also do this, but the focus shifted more later in-game once the collective masses started losing their own desires to truly live and make their own decisions
Like it started with the whole “take your heart” to stop the evil desires of those exerting their own authority against others
sly plinth
I do wonder if we will bring back people's desires like in p5s

NAGISA AWAKENING LETS GO
Loved the scene, tho ofc joker’s own awakening still hits harder for me

First day thoughts: too much UI and pop-ups, some cutscenes and moments need more polish, weirdly very little currency for pulls so far (at least for limited banner)
Love the animations
Iwai
And uh
That's about it
clear sphinx
yass let it out
lyric canopy
First day thoughts: too much UI and pop-ups, some cutscenes and moments need mor...
what do you think about the story
i find the first villain not interesting
yea the lack of free pulls in the limited banner is putting me off
clear sphinx
I mean there is a 10 free pull for limited banner daily log in event rn and other events etc.
but ig yeah
for a release, the free pulls given especially for limited feel lacking
lyric canopy
i find the first villain not interesting
okay so i'm not the only one, the first beta test of this game which only had the first palace was also criticized for its story then after the first arc they brought in an actual p5 studio writer and the story had a noticeable increase in quality
that's good
clear sphinx
yeah
first palace super feels like a "tutorial" story
its just giving Kamoshida but worse
since the global release still basically uses the CN unchanged, we have to go through the same stuff
they cant just change everything in 1 year
this includes the weird looking low quality animated cutscenes too
its a live service game gacha afterall which will improve over the years
lyric canopy
will the gacha animation improve, not the intro part that's really good, but the when it shows you the pulls
clear sphinx
will the gacha animation improve, not the intro part that's really good, but the...
pretty sure no
stuff like that would still happen on Global 1.0 release if that was the case
so like Tanemura had a redesign in CN, which also appears in the global release
lyric canopy
damn
upper iris
for a release, the free pulls given especially for limited feel lacking
Is it tho
Idk I feel like I've been able to get most characters fairly easily already
clear sphinx
starting Chapter 2 
upper iris
nerd
clear sphinx
finally
clear sphinx
so
you can watch the P5 anime inside P5X
😭
thats so stupid
and you have to watch the whole thing to earn rewards
(1 standard pull)
upper iris
only 1?
clear sphinx
it goes like
first video = 1 standard pull
second video = coin for weapon shop
third video = 1 standard pull
and goes on
you basically watch clips from the P5 anime
clear sphinx
Idk I feel like I've been able to get most characters fairly easily already
also yeah you are right but I meant more as in for a game that just released + its the start of the game you would expect the given rewards to be faster
but its not
the rewards are a lot but given slowly
and not instantly
upper iris
you basically watch clips from the P5 anime
Not really bad tbh
upper iris
and not instantly
Patience 
clear sphinx
also I love Motoha
clear sphinx
Chapter 2 already feels so much better than the first
upper iris
Does it feel like not a tutorial
clear sphinx
Chapter 1 had that part where it was basically a big tutorial so the story had lacking parts
Chapter 2 is free from that
also Chapter 2 is when Atlus getting more involved into overseeing the game with writing etc.
upper iris
Interesting
clear sphinx
when P5X, it was mainly only being worked on by the Chinese dev which made the game have lots of flaws in terms of writing etc. its only when Atlus actually got more involved in it
Chapter 1 feels very much Walmart Kamoshida sometimes
Chapter 2 feels more fresh
in the dev stream and Q&As they already always mention how they want to make P5X a completely fresh experience with new palaces feeling new instead of being copies from the original game
clear sphinx
from the CN reviews, it is def going very strong
I have seen people compare it to the main games and actually say its better 😭
upper iris
Ok now idk about that
clear sphinx
the fact even if P5X takes in an AU, its still questionable if Igor in P5X still is our Igor
dense oar
P5R established the fake igor based on his voice so it's safe to assume if the same were to happen here, igor wouldn't sound like he does right now in the game
clear sphinx
Igor gives a weird reaction when you mention "familiar faces" as in to Joker etc. (as Phantom Idols)
clear sphinx
P5R established the fake igor based on his voice so it's safe to assume if the s...
Yeah but I meant as in since P5X is not canon to the general Persona series and is an AU, Igor could be still canon
Merope most likely not canon to the Velvet Room attendants though
not only she doesnt have yellow eyes but also her name isnt based on Frankenstein
upper iris
Honestly idk what is or isn't canon I'm just treating it as its own thing
clear sphinx
my favorite thing in every Persona game
a character awakening
its so peak and hype
def one of the main things I always look forward in every Persona game
upper iris
Aura
clear sphinx
Ok yeah reading more into the first palace
This whole arc is just so fucking stupid lmao
Second palace is a step up for sure though
I see now why the story had so much criticism when it first released
I can't wait for global to reach to the arc where CN/KR players have been praising about to see how big of an improvement happened from whatever the fuck the first palace was 😭
Like I love Motoha and her character is super great but Kiuchi was just what
I guess he was a fine intro character that served as a tutorial
But his whole Subway Slammer thing was so stupid
and he was just another Kamoshida
except he just hates women ig
iron grail
Yeah im thinking it's dumb
What does slamming into random women have to do with failing his baseball dream
clear sphinx
Well that's answered later on but still stupid
Tldr ||He hates women so he wants to make their day worse and be seen as a threat since he has nothing to do in life anymore blah blah||
||and the fact that no one can do anything about it which causes people to lose their desires||
This is literally Persona 5 Strikers and Persona 5 fused
Desires and Treasure/Changing hearts
It's smart actually and works well
But the first palace ruler plot wise is just weak
The message given is there and it's very Persona but like
Yeah
Without spoilers to yall, again second palace steps up really good plot wise. It's way better but still like nothing holy shit peak
CN/KR reviews seem to say the third palace is really when it gets the peak title
But we will see that by September in 2.0
If yall curious CN/KR is currently at the 5th palace
Which is 4.X
clear sphinx
Oh I was just reminded of the vision Wonder had
Him pushing a mom and a baby down the stairs and the baby dying
If we didn't change his heart
Like 😭 ???
outer solstice

iron grail

sly plinth
I haven't finished the palace yet but I'm very confused how they want me to feel about the villian
He seems to be a good guy, gets hit with desire stuff, starts being bad, goes even more bad (to a comical degree), his shadow is bad (duh) but his past story cutscenes aren't bad?
Meanwhile the crew hates him to a extremely high level
But it doesn't seem they hate the twisted desire version of him but the whole package?
So far I just think the guy was good and the past stuff didn't matter much to him anymore, until he got hit with the desire stuff which connected him looking at the woman and pushing us accidentally and also his past
So comparatively to Kamoshida this guy is golden (before desire stuff)
dense oar
I’m not finished either and I found his reason for acting the way he does to be so stupid and narrow-minded; you’re telling the resentment you felt towards a kid suddenly hits you now ??? Enough to make you wanna push people around in the subway?? That’s so goddamn lame
Tbf though he does also exhibit misogyny with this because the kid was arai, so anyone he pushed always ended up being a woman
It’s really stupid but not completely unrealistic either, some people really believe and behave this way
But yeah compared to kamoshida, he’s not as intense
Kamoshida makes me feel completely disgusted, this guy just makes me look at him with disdain and disappointment
Also he just reminds me of why I hate travelling via public transport sometimes, people really ignore manners and coordination there when it gets so crowded
I need to finish the palace once I’m done with whatever in mementos, got to the fourth area last night
sly plinth
i just started trying to 100% before level 30

@clear sphinx do u by any chance have any knowledge how picking a char to date in this game works? I know the rewards are diff depending for what route with them u will go, but currently the in-game tutorials and descriptions don't say if u can opt out of being with a char and choose a different one, and if u can pick multiple at the same time, the most I found is just somewhere saying vaguely that having multiple char at the same time might make the other char sad and u MIGHT miss out on stuff (or not, no example was given)

You can date multiple characters with no consequences

there is still something if you do so but nothing happens major as far as I am aware

also romance isnt available yet on global
it got added in a future update
as you cant progress that far yet anyways
clear sphinx
yall
its a CN gacha game
😭
Atlus being involved doesnt change much as long as the game is still developed by a Chinese company
they are only mainly working on the game so that global fans can enjoy it as much as a Persona game and so that the writing doesnt fall off / is original
They started getting involved by Chapter 3 of the main story
thats why Chapter 1 is so ass
upper iris
its a CN gacha game
I can still be disappointed

clear sphinx
I got joker but no weap yet
if you are pulling for his weapon because of "meta" as in power and not because you want it because well, you want it, dont
his weapon is very not worth it
iron grail
His weapon ugly ss hell anwyay
clear sphinx
true
iron grail
Just use the 4*
clear sphinx
as the first limited weapon, its super weak
sly plinth
Pulling the weapons is worth mostly cause u don't have any 5* weapons
clear sphinx
also Joker isnt a long term character meta wise
saving for future character and weapons is a better choice unless you want it because you want it and dont care about meta
I pulled for Joker because well I had to and not because meta but will skip on weapon because his weapon isnt necessary
clear sphinx
Pulling the weapons is worth mostly cause u don't have any 5* weapons
for Joker its fine to use his 4* because his 5* doesnt add much to his kit. Also standard five star weapons are free
- weapon banner is worse than Genshin
there are future characters that have godly 5* weapons and are a must
sly plinth
There is a standard 5* joker weapon?
upper iris
Following meta is a snooze fest in any game
clear sphinx
no
clear sphinx
Following meta is a snooze fest in any game
well yes
thats why I said if you want the 5* weapon because you just want to invest into Joker for liking him its fine but meta wise his 5* weapon is unneccessary
especially if you are a f2p player
sly plinth
I only pulled for the weapon banner once with gems and got it so I'm fine
I have yet to look at the arcana cards or whatever they are called
clear sphinx
we will get characters like Chord and Oracle soon who change game mechanics as a support
basically Harmony units of P5X
their weapons are so much worth to save for
also 4* weapons are as ok
since CN is one year ahead, its easier for global players to decide on what to invest on
that is if again, if you care about meta wise
I am kinda both for this game where I will pull for Chord because both meta and I love her
sly plinth
Btw any clue if the char that was on the train in chapter 2 wanting to draw Cattle is a char that comes back in any way?
clear sphinx
Btw any clue if the char that was on the train in chapter 2 wanting to draw Catt...
yes
clear sphinx
why would she have a portrait if she was irrelevant
lol
Persona logic
many of the characters that we see around that appear like once or twice but has portraits are all future characters
like Chord
you can find her with her guitar
sly plinth

same with Akechi, apperantly he is mid as hell as an unit

Yeah I'm just making a general statement
Wonder if they would ever add zenkichi
clear sphinx
if we ever get a P5S collab
but I doubt anytime soon
they will most likely focus on P4 collab after the P3R collab is over
upper iris
I really hope for some more out there collabs because they are gonna run out of persona games to collab with
clear sphinx
P5 collab got everyone in so
P3 collab so far only got Makoto, Akihiko and Yukari
with Akihiko just being recent
dense oar
why... why is there so much...

finally got the route sorted

tldr some scenes were removed in the global version, these scenes are NOT important and most likely cut as a better narrative experience
||if any of you got confused about seven treasures mention out of nowhere after the first palace when they were talking, this is why. The scene where they first talk about it is removed so now its an off screen scene and we first hear about the "seven treasures" for the first time in that scene||
||while this might come out as weird but there is no need to talk about the same thing twice so they most likely found it as an useless scene and just have it mentioned afterwards||
