After playing through the entirety of p3r. I wanted to check out this game as I had so much enjoyment with p3r. I was wondering if there are any tips and tricks for a first time player like me?

I see that it has a book series with 12 books right now is it worth reading? Also do the books only cover what happenes in the game or do they get to the point we're they start going past the game?

Its kind of a stupid question but im curious, it seems like it usually takes 2-3 days for the current palace's plot to happen before the deadline, so if you beat in the last day, how does the plot have time to do things like >!Futaba waking up!<? Does it just not happen?

So I'm in the crunch time of my vanilla Persona 5 run: it's December 13th and I just completed the final palace - calling card, cool boss fight and all. I have 3 more levels of Empress, 2 levels of Tower and 1 level of Moon left to complete my maxed confidant run and I had calculated that I may (just BARELY) have enough time to finish the palace, ensure I have the remaining 6 days remaining until exams (December 20th) and max out the three of them - especially given that Moon can be completed at night.

Only when I completed the palace and got back into things on the 14th, a Wednesday.. Empress is no where to be found. Same for the Thursday December 15th, a day that they're normally both available on..

Tower ends up showing up again on the Friday the 16th and Empress ends up showing up on the Saturday the 17th.. but I lost those crucial few days that would've helped me complete their ranks.

I'm pretty annoyed. Was this a glitch? Do confidants disappear for a few days after the palace completion? Should I have ranked them 10 first and taken on the Palace instead on the 17-19th?

Hello Persona 5 community,

I am making a video about the most damage possible in a SINGLE HIT in all the persona titles, and I was wondering if anybody has footage of getting this. If you are curious about how you would get this, here's my guess:

World arcana persona (full compendium)

colossal [type] damage move

sleeping? enemy

fully leveled up baton pass with highest rank

heated up / debilitated

concentrated / president's insighted

lands weakness (with technical)

critical

Does anyone have PROOF that this is the strongest?

So I just completed Royal for like the third time all the way through and I'm going to do it again. One because I really love this game and two because I want to complete the Compendium.

This game makes me feel emotions that I can't necessarily describe. I have so many thoughts and feelings when it comes to this game that I can't express it if that makes sense.

I just know that this is officially my comfort game. I know that it's my favorite game ever and it's a game I will always come back to.

The photo above is just scratching the surface when it comes to my feelings towards the game.

This game has taught me a plethora of things but this is probably the biggest thing that it's taught me...

Society and the world itself is an unjust game. No matter what society throws at you, we all have the strength to overcome it and make it better for ourselves.

The world isn't perfect, but that's what makes life so valuable. Even through the mistakes that we make or the bad situations that we're dealt, we can grow into better people.

I know this all sounds so cheesy, but in a weird way, maybe that's why I love this game so much...

I don't know if Persona 4 and 3 are going to be my favorite games once I play them because I don't know if they're going to compare to 5 with me.

Royal is my first Persona game. It's music is what got me into the game to begin with. Even before getting it.

I didn't know how I was going to feel about Royal when I first played it, but now that I've played it three or four times over, I can safely say that it is my favorite game of all time.

No other game has made me feel the emotions that I currently feel quite like Royal.

The only regret that I have is that I didn't find this game when I was in high school. But even out of high school, I still have so much to learn not only in life but as a human being.

I'm sure I knew that already, but Royal enhanced it for me.

Life is unfair. Society is unfair. But there's always a silver lining even in the darkest of times...

Thank you for coming to my incredibly cheesy TedTalk 😂

I am new to the persona games and I just fused this somehow. It's wayy above my level and has all the evade skills. what do I even do with this?

Sorry for the ignorance lmao

Hey guys, I want to get into this series because honestly it looks pretty damn cool. Can I start the franchise from any game, or is there one game people always recommend to play first? 

Man, I've sunk like 150 hours in the game. Just finished the true ending. Walking around saying goodbye to everyone was such a bittersweet feeling. It's been a while I that cared so much for fictional characters. Like dammit, even that dog loving girl in the backstreets of yongen-jaya talking she promised to her dog to not cry, that broke me...

It was great to see everyone following their dreams and convictions, and going their own paths in the real reality.

It's the first persona game I ever actually played. It hooked me in so much, platinumed trophied it too. Onto the other Atlus games...

But man, what a ride that was. So many times I couldn't believe that there was even more story and content. Started playing the game 28th of October, lots of nights with little sleep, because I didn't want to stop playing, no regrets. 10/10.

I'm debating what I'm gonna play next, either Persona 5 Strikers, Persona 3 Reload, Persona 4 Golden, shin megami tensei v vengeance, Catherine full body, soul hackers 2 or metaphor refantazio...

Hey Guys, i recently finished the Spaceport Palace.

I thought that i was well equipped for it, but then the Boss fight killed me over 5 Times.

Usually my max amount of tries for a Boss was 2

Now my question is:

Is The Ceo just a really hard Boss or is this the sign to take more time to level up in mementos?

Cause if yall were like "oh yeah he is on the harder side of bosses in this game" id just go on like usual

If you unlocked Satanael in NG+ would that make you able to buy him in NG++? Since the NG+ cycle is infinite is it possible to do the kamoshida fight while having 999hp and a level 100 Satanael

I got P5R today. I’ve played 2 hours almost. I just finished his first day of school. I love the battle system, though I haven’t used much of it as it’s the beginning. I also love the art and music! So far I like it. I normally don’t play JRPGs, but this seems like a time investor. I’ve seen some say they have logged in over 100 hours! Wow.

I am currently at Marukis Palace and have a bit of a problem. Akechi and Sumire are a bit overleveled, both are at lvl 83 Futaba and Joker are 82 and the rest is 81. Makoto and Haru both level up later than the others. A d before you recommend it to me, Yes, I have Mishima maxed. So some recommendations?

I almost crossed 59 hours and have made it to September. I kind dread playing another 50 hours to get the ending. (Playing Royale)

The characters are great and I can't wait to max out some confidants (only maxed the sun so far) but it's tedious to have to level up my stats to max to continue some confidants also I was completely checked out at futabas dungeon and basically did a step by step guide using a walkthrough

The story is great but it seems soooo dahm long. I am not sure if I wanna finish it but I might regret it if I don't

Hello everyone I bought Persona 5 Royal 2 days ago and have been playing since then. I already beat the game on PS4 and wanted to play it on PC too. But sadly while the 4th palace a bug appeared. I took the cursed gem and after realizing that I can't pass some traps I left it where I picked it up. But after trying for hundreds of times I still can't pass the arrows to shoot the ballista. I can't provide videos right now but I will post the photos.r/Persona5 - I can't progress because of a bug (I guess) in 4th Palace.

I don't have any gem as you can see.

Game still says the gem is there.

As you can see trap still actives even though I haven't taken the gem. What should I do I pressed every button I can?

…not including the line “Have a snack” by Joker right before he sends a hot one into Maruki’s crown.

Is there any way to cheese this boss? I’ve used every tactic I can including stun gun spamming but nothing can stop this battle from feeling like RNG garbage. I got to the last phase only to get insta killed and I’m this close to just dropping the game because of how poorly thought out this boss is.

I’m pretty new to the game (6 hours in, just started the first castle with four characters) and playing on Easy mode.

I’m playing for the story, and I have no interest in grinding unnecessarily. I really dislike video games with chores.

Does improving Confidant relationships really make a big difference at this difficulty? Or can I mostly do what I feel like with my free time and focus on the main story?

Same thing with capturing personas. Should I bother weakening/capturing more Pixies, etc.?

Hello. I'm having trouble finding how much do buffs like Sukukaja actually increase the Evasion. The wiki says Attack and Defence buffs/debuffs increase/decrease their stat by 40%... but it isn't stated the same for Evasion/Accuracy.

Does anyone know? An estimate would work as well.

I like to say, I created a subreddit for the AU, r/AdultThievesAU! The subreddit is solely just in order for these types of post to not clog this one in particular and discussions for people too!

This post isn't a post that I'll stop continuing it, I'll be on a break for a while but I'll still post fanart of it too!

Today, I'd like to host a small discussion/AMA regarding the AU itself, just for people wondering the things that NEEDED to be explained in it!
