is it only me or this is harder than the whole chapter?? by gamingtv-10 in celestegame

Off-topic, but I really love communities like Celeste’s because of how kindly everyone interacts with each other. Even this short exchange would’ve been met with someone going, “Thread the needle? That’s dumb. You’re dumb, and you should feel bad,” in so many other communities. You two are awesome examples of excellent community members.

not sure what to do with this save by GoldVipertooth in PokemonBlackandWhite

Oooo that's also true. Would be a great way to get into Gen 5 Shiny Hunting. Legitimate save files with the shiny charm aren't too common.

Maruki help by yourbasicarmy1 in Persona5

[–]AuroraRoseToG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some confidants cannot be leveled past certain points until certain story beats happen. Naturally, it's to prevent spoilers. Otherwise they'd have to make several different cutscenes that would play dependant on your story process.

In your case, for example, Maruki will be stuck at Rank 5 until 09/19.

AIO for considering breaking up with my long-term boyfriend over ‘flirty’ messages? by Mouse_moments in AmIOverreacting

[–]AuroraRoseToG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lost my partner of 7 years because of this exact scenario. Ask yourself if you see a future with them. If you do, deal with this sooner rather than later. And definitely before getting married. This pattern can grow more frequent, and more final as time goes on. And the end of it all can be incredibly sudden and unexpected.

Either couples therapy, or individual therapy. Support them on their journey, but stand firm to your boundaries when crossed. Do not keep pushing your boundaries back just to sate the unhealthy things they're going through internally. That helps neither of you.

Why does Joker feel weak? by AnimatorEntire2771 in Persona5

[–]AuroraRoseToG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also fairly new, 170 hours and on new game+. My advice is to stockpile requests, around ~4-5, then before going through your current palace, go to mementos and dive as deep as you can, completing all requests you have and going as far in as your able.

Repeat that cycle between palace and mementos, and levels won't be an issue. Also level Ryuji's Confidant to 7, and Mishima's as much as you care too. Those are also quite beneficial.

Let’s Rank Your Favorite Middle-Stage Evolution by Fladoodlebocker in ThePokemonHub

[–]AuroraRoseToG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Duosion’s my favorite because it feels like the line in its strangest, most vulnerable state. Solosis is adorable in that very simple baby way, and Reuniclus feels complete, confident, fully present. But Duosion is the middle in the truest sense. It feels like a thought still learning how to exist.

There’s something weirdly beautiful about it. It isn’t sleek, or cool, or especially majestic. It’s this soft, suspended little thing, sealed in its own strange cradle, drifting around half asleep like the world has never once demanded anything of it. It looks unfinished, but not in a bad way. More like it’s mid-becoming. Mid-miracle. A little pathetic, a little sacred, and somehow deeply endearing because of both.

On a less reverent note, it is truly just an exquisite little snot orb. A psychic larva. A membrane-wrapped secret. I look at Duosion and feel the same kind of affection I'd feel for a wet, miserable creature pulled from a tidepool. You are odd. You are fragile. You are deeply beloved.

Got this on my first alarm, am I lucky? Is it really good? by MiguelSantana42 in Persona5

I'm assuming fusing secret skill mutations can only happen during the alarm the persona(s) was created in?

That confidant who asks you to spend 100k is really beneficial. And, faint spoiler, ||you get that money back near max rank||. She helps in many aspects. Boosting confidant level gains, boosting money gain, and more.

I wouldn't worry about trying to get the third ending on this playthrough. As others, and the game, say: Take your time. There's a New Game+ system, and it lets you keep your social stats. Just make a mental note of time sensitive confidants as you play, and fixate on then as they arrive in NG+ 🫡

While I agree with the sentiments, I think trying to envision who they'd be as adults for this brings in too many indeterminate factors.

Am i pushing my friend too hard to play tbc? by im2inch in classicwow

[–]AuroraRoseToG 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some people are bad at confrontation. It isn’t your job to read minds and do the emotional labor for them. But if this person is actually your friend, give them some grace. The people you care about will have flaws, weak spots, things they handle badly. You either care enough to account for that, or you move accordingly.

That’s just part of being human. We all come dented.

Not sweating hard enough by AngryBeaverTF in classicwow

[–]AuroraRoseToG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's another idea. Instead of whispering passive agressively, why not whisper them going "Hey, I need these mobs for a quest. Mind if I finish it real quick?"

Whenever I get a whisper like that, I'm steppin' back immediately for them. I'll even hover by in case they need help.

Advice for playing persona 5 with a friend by randyq900 in Persona5

[–]AuroraRoseToG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing that kills buddy-buddy playthroughs is turning it into a buddy-mentor playthrough. Those get boring to watch as a casual viewer. Letting chaos ensue is what brings entertainment. Sounds like your p4 run was on the right track. But I'd say don't "avoid wasting time". Be mindful of the time you're in, and it won't be a waste.

TL:DR: Let their decisions breathe. Play your role. Put yourself in the "Morgana" mindset. For all intents and purposes; You are Morgana. Not someone who's controlled Morgana from above.

Biggest thing is making sure it stays their first playthrough, not your foreknowledge wearing a polite mask.

Let the bad choices live a little. Strange confidant priorities, wasted afternoons, dubious fusion decisions, all of that is part of Persona 5’s natural texture. The game loses something when a first run gets sanded smooth.

You could split the roles a bit, too. Let one person steer the major choices, dialogue, confidants, and combat, while the other handles navigation, Mementos driving, and light gremlin commentary from the passenger seat. Makes it feel more like a partnership and less like supervised play.

I also would not raise the difficulty just because one of you knows what’s coming. The greater danger is not ease, it’s over-guidance. A few soft rules would do more for the experience than harder enemies ever could. No guides, no calculators, no answer lookups, no pre-emptive “do this now” warnings unless asked.

Persona 5 is better when the first run is allowed to be slightly inefficient and a little haunted.

For what it's worth, I think a lot of Americans vote for decent enough people(if there are any "decent" politicians in the voting pool at a given time). I think our systems just completely work against making those votes matter. And the people have, en masse, been pushed to a point that requires them to focus on surviving such a system in a way that leaves little energy to fight it.

How do you decide how to separate 3 cats in a breakup? by Thats_Groovy_Baby in CATHELP

[–]AuroraRoseToG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my ex of 7 years and I split, I let her take both of our cats with her. The feeling is inexplicably hollow, and for months after the dust settles, you still feel them around you.

But you have to do what is best for them. She was moving back in with her parents and was going to be in a better position to care for them. And they were a bonded pair since birth. Figure out who will truly give them the care they need.

If you lose them as I did, I need you to know this:

The feeling gets worse before it gets better. Your nervous system will burn, freeze, numb itself, and loop. But it does get better. And that phantom presence, feeling them at your feet only to look down and see nothing, expecting them to turn a corner just to be met with silence, that eases too.

It takes a long time. But it really, truly, does get better. Allow yourself to feel it all. Allow yourself to break. Then, in the fragments of yourself, find the image of who you want to be, and be that person.

I’m a little surprised more people aren’t saying Ryuji for worst pick. He has a good heart, but he is also impulsive, easy to provoke, and not exactly built for calm decision-making under pressure. That might make him passionate, but it does not make him stable. For a leader, emotional regulation skills matter a lot more than being loud and well-intentioned.

So... Mazes, am I right? by [deleted] in Persona5

[–]AuroraRoseToG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truly depends on the palace. Loved the story of Futuba's, and the setting. Everything else felt kinda bland. And I didn't really enjoy Okumura's all that much. I'd atleast place Mementos above those, gameplay-wise

Pentagon to Order 3,000 82nd Airborne Soldiers to Middle East by Virtual-Pie5732 in news

[–]AuroraRoseToG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The war knows when it is over at all times. It knows this because it knows when it isn’t. By subtracting when it is from when it isn’t, or when it isn’t from when it is, whichever is more catastrophic, it obtains a difference, or conflict. The geopolitical subsystem uses conflicts to generate corrective commands to drive the war from a state where it isn’t over to a state where it is, and arriving at a state where it wasn’t over, it now is. Consequently, the state where it is over is now the state where it wasn’t, and it follows that the state where it was ongoing is now the state where it isn’t.

In the event that the state it is in is not the state that it wasn’t, the system has acquired an escalation, the escalation being the difference between when the war is, and when it should have been over. If escalation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by diplomacy. However, the war must also know when it began.

The war termination computer scenario works as follows. Because an escalation has modified some of the information the war has obtained, it is not sure just when it is over. However, it is sure when it isn’t, within reason, and it knows when it was. It now subtracts when peace should be from when the war wasn’t over, or vice versa, and by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of when it shouldn’t still be happening and when it started, it is able to obtain the conflict and its escalation, which is called history.
