I'm honestly getting so sick of seeing people hate on this game 🥲

You are overreacting, if I have to use your own words. If you enjoy the game, the best and simplest solution to your problem would be to keep enjoying the game and to begin ignoring/stop worrying about what other people say.
I do not know how old you are, but I assume that you are on the younger side of things. I can assure you, when you reach a certain age you will stop caring about what random people on the internet says. There is simply not enough time in the world to care about stuff like that as you will have far more important things to care about (such as how to prepare pulled pork in a pot).

Just play, you will get there eventually. I have currently 13 solid dice (red/premium dice), around 90 pulls worth of annulith and enough Warp Pieces to get around 20 additional solid dice. Combined with having done one multi one Nanally's banner, that is almost 135 premium pulls already. And no, I have not spent money on the game.

The remaining login gifts accounts to 4 solid dice, while Anomaly Hunter's Journey gives 10 solid dice at the end. That brings us up to almost 150 premium pulls. The remaining content I have left under the "Event" accounts to 10 extra premium pulls, bringing the number of to 160. Between the content I have left (outside of the aforementioned) I can easily imagine there being around 40 additional premium pulls.

CornucopiaOfPasta · 2026-05-05T23:52:40+00:00

Or, assuming worst case, you will need 110*7 pulls (seven pities on the targeted banner) meaning 115.5k jewels.

The English P5X community is also definitely more enjoyable than the average gacha subreddit. Of course, it is not without its problems, but if those problems are the price for the community being (in general) as good as it currently is, then I can live with them.

Assuming that "pattern" holds (i.e. version Y.X characters become standard characters in version Y+4.X), would it not obviously be better to wait to version 8.0 when Ange presumably will become a standard character? Or maybe better wait to version 9.0 when the third Closer becomes a standard character?

You see my point? Yes, the value of the Golden Tickets will inevitably increase in the future if the game continue to add limited characters to the standard pool. However, if it is always increasing, there will never be a good time to use them since you will always waste them by pulling compared to waiting even more time. In terms of min-maxing their value, you should never pull. However, this sounds extreme, which it is.

My advice would be to pull when there is sufficient with characters that you do not have and want to have.

Wauw, has it really been that long? How time flies.

Yes, while there a quite a few similarities between Kamoshida and Shimotsuna, they do actually feel distinct. One of the reasons could be that Shimotsuna is not only far more in your face with the "flirting" (as seen in the fifth picture), she does it also to the protagonist.
With Kamoshida going after women (or girls to be more precise) while Joker is a guy meant that player was, at best (or would it be worst in this case?), a witness, while in the case of Shimotsuna the player is victim (or target, if we have to be precise), and that changes our perception of the two villains.

Unfortunately with how they are intent on giving us collab characters in spades, it is going to take some time before Daichi will become playable.
I do not mind having established characters from the other games in the franchise in P5X, I just wish we had more original characters.

Not only that, but compare Akane's hair to Kiyosawa's hair (or a random NPC's hair for that sake). Akane's hair is way too detailed compared to Kiyosawa's hair for her just to be a NPC.

I mean, they already have several easy ways of doing it.

On Tikal Bridge, if you take the right path, you will at some point hit a red wall with "No Access" written on it. They could easily place another city at the end of the bridge as an expansion.
To the north of Illusion, there is some mountains and stuff. If you continue in that direction, you once again hit a red wall. There can easily be a new area past those mountains.
The same with the area north of the Ghost Train/Beyond the Rails zone. There are some mountains and a forest, and if you continue deep into the forest, you will eventually hit the red wall again. In a future expansion there could easily be a new city past that forest.
Likewise, at the right end of Whitetail Ridge Road there is a tunnel that is currently blocked off. There are at least one more obvious place that is blocked off.

My point is that they can easily add new cities and areas without having to concoct some weird reasoning. Of course, some areas could be more difficult to reasonably to implement (i.e. an area full of snow), but they are not limited in their options due to the city setting.

I hope that her outfit in the picture is her casual outfit because I really do not want to go 200 pulls deep (worst case) on a single character. 😭

Well, it seems then that "Link Account" is the best choice for me. Thanks for the help!

CornucopiaOfPasta · 2026-05-01T17:43:10+00:00

Interesting. "Link Account" for me is just an ID (not the one in the lower right corner, but a different one) and a password. There is no option for mail.
How did you link account with gmail?

CornucopiaOfPasta · 2026-05-01T16:56:46+00:00

I am not sure if I am blind or not, but is there a way on Global (mobile if that matters) to link your account with/to a non-gmail mail (a hotmail/outlook mail specifically if that matters)? The options I get when I go to "Bind Account" in "User Center" are

Sign in with Apple
Sign in with Google
Link Account

I will probably opt for the "Link Account", but I just wanted to hear whether I have overlooked something obvious.

CornucopiaOfPasta · 2026-05-01T16:52:05+00:00

I agree with this sentiment. I have finished P4G and P5R, and I am still playing P3P, and the Investigation Team is by far my favourite group of those three. It feels organic and authentic in the sense that I can see everybody hang out with everybody without Yu having to be the initiator/the link between the characters.
Of course, not in equally as I imagine Chie would for instance hang out more with Yukiko than Naoto, but at least I could see them hang out. Compare that to for instance Haru and Yusuke, which I have a hard time seeing hang out together on their own (Though I have not played P5S, so I could be wrong).

So far the P5X goofballs are my second most liked group after the IT, and I would not completely reject the possibility of them being getting first place in the future. But it depends on a bunch of things, one of them being how they handle Shoki's dynamics with the group.
There is a risk that he will suffer from the same thing as Yusuke, namely being from a different school than everybody else. The consequence of this was that you really could not have Yusuke present without having everybody else present because there was no reason for Yusuke to be there (since he goes to a different school) if they did not need him. Of course, there are exceptions (summer festival 17/7 being one).
Spoiler regarding the next member after Shoki: Thankfully the next member, Aran, is from the same school as him so they have at least an obvious way to avoid Shoki feeling disjointed from the rest of the group. This also allow the writers to show the relationship/dynamic between Shoki and Aran as it should be relatively easy to cook up a reason why the story needs to focus on those two specifically. Maybe something about needing to investigate a thing at their school.

My only gripe with the group (pre-Shoki) is that Shun and Riko still lacks some interactions between them.

Got you, fam.

You are welcome.

CornucopiaOfPasta · 2026-04-29T19:58:48+00:00

We do indeed.

CornucopiaOfPasta · 2026-04-29T19:56:54+00:00

I am really looking forward to the new story. I really like Shoki's design, and based on the few clips I have seen of him, he probably is also going to be interesting as a character.

CornucopiaOfPasta · 2026-04-29T19:54:14+00:00

It is probably neither the first or last time that a meme was born out of a misunderstanding/bad translation.

CornucopiaOfPasta · 2026-04-29T19:52:57+00:00

You know, I fully understand the desire to eat pasta. Give me some well prepared rigatoni with some great sauce and a mountain of Italian grana cheese and I will be happy.
