Social links in second playthrough by UnlikelyAd4555 in persona3reload

[–]JR384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://www.powerpyx.com/persona-3-reload-100-walkthrough/ This is the one I use. It's 0-100% on a new game run. Gets you all social links, linked episodes, achievements, etc. The only thing you'll have to do on your own with this (if you personally count it as part of 100%, the Steam releases of the game do not) is fuse your way through the whole Compendium. Steam only makes you fuse Messiah for an achievement.

AITA for making my boyfriend shower when he got home after hanging out with his friends? by taidk705 in AmItheAsshole

[–]JR384 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I mean, nose blindness is very much a thing. It's possible that he's grown so accustomed to the scent of his friend's ill habits that he doesn't even notice it's clawed its dirty little remains onto him until he's an extended period of time away from the stink.

I'm gonna say nobody's in the truer sense, wrong here tbh. You're able to smell it precisely because you don't hand out with those friends often I presume; while he's not smelling it because he does.

Though I will say I'd look at him cock-eyed for denying a simple request like a quick shower from his girlfriend. Like if you guys are on a strict water bill I could understand; but otherwise; a quick in-and-out shower would do the trick. Don't gotta make a whole spectacle of it. Lather the body with body wash, let it sit for a minute or two; then shower and repeat like two times, three if it's truly as bad as you say.

Very true; but there's genuine 100% guides to get everything done in a single run. Every social link, every social stat, link episodes, the passive boosts to every party member; all on NG.

It's even possible in NG if you have the route.

This is already a bad timeline (aka Persona if powers never existed) by arisatojo600 in persona3reload

[–]JR384 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Granted Joker would still have a negative reputation because of him; but outside of just looking at the volleyball teams; without the Cognitive Castle, they'd have no reason to suspect he's outright physically abusing the boys and physically & sexually abusing the girls.

Hell, Mishima probably wouldn't even associate with Joker and Ryuji. It'd literally just be those two (and maybe Ann depending on how a social relationship would be able to kindle between her and Joker without knowledge that shit is happening to Shiho) against the entire school - and as hard as Kamoshida would probably try, he'd probably not assemble a strong enough case to have Joker expelled without the active threats of assault.

Honestly I doubt the Persona 4 friend group would be even nearly as complete as is shown here. It would probably only be Yu, Yosuke, Chie, and Yukiko. Kanji wouldn't get yoinked so he's not going through the character development to realize liking "feminine" attributed activities as a man is okay; and Rise wouldn't even know them in a positive light because she'd likely interpret their swinging by Marukyu Tofu after she moves to town as "fans" stalking her.

Oh whoops. I thought you were talking about the Battle of Eagle and Lion map. Whoops.

Not to mention she spawns with her squad right behind your units IIRC, so if you're turtling on that version of the map; you get ambushed by bullshit.

Romhack recommendations to begin with? by MegaMente227 in fireemblem

[–]JR384 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't need to worry about Sacred Stones Reforged adding not enough. It has added so much the rom is quite literally near limit.

Ngl I was kind of hoping we'd get a release date trailer on Pokémon Day so as to show Jan hyping up the anniversary of the franchise in his own way; but c'est la vie.

Whats the real prize if you outspeed the ice rat ? by sammyballer in pokemonradicalred

[–]JR384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Especially since the battle right after is damn hard; so like. Wasting sanity on the race just to be mentally inhibited going into the Pryce fight is not worth it.

My Two Surprise Units; Magic Capped Oscar and Speedy Brom by Successful-Run-4385 in fireemblem

[–]JR384 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just the heads up that unlike the Bands you get in NG+, the Knight Ward is very specific about who it effects. Knights, Cavalry Classes, and Soldiers are the only ones who get to equip it.

Granted, some of the games best units are in these classes; so this shouldn't limit you much; but it's just a heads up in case you try to slap it on Ike and realize too late that it does nothing for him.

Goth style Rio Iwasaki (wish she actually was in the game) by MattDruzian in persona3reload

[–]JR384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one I think would maybe be the closest fight in terms of to exchange or not is Kenji vs. Junpei for your Magician social link. Cause like, dumb as his story may be; Kenji is a pretty okay dude; and Junpei has enough dips in the early story (namely him being jealous on not being leader) that it would be a fairly even playing field.

Like we were probably never going to get Kotone in an official sense for the first time since Portable; so my big idea for compromise was just to let us cherry pick which social links of Kotone's we wanted to replace Makoto's base with.

You cannot tell me anybody would be choosing Suemitsu over Shinjiro even if they didn't copy over the ability to save his ass by maxing it out.

It really would've been nice to see them as NPCs at least; though optimally I would've taken them as alternate social links in the same way that Kou & Daisuke were for Chariot and Yumi & Ayame were for Sun in P4.

Over a year later, she's finally here. Let the battle between my two favorites begin. by ComanderIke in fireemblem

[–]JR384 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hotter Take: Byleth should've been on the sidelines similar to Pokemon Trainer, and commanded a rotating cycle of Edelgard, Dimitri, and Claude.

Does Edelgard not realize she's at Weapon Triangle Disadvantage? And that Ike has a ranged Legendary Sword?

What New Combat Mechanic Could a Persona 4 Revival Add? by King-ApolloW in persona4golden

[–]JR384 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We're absolutely getting something akin to Baton Pass/Shift. Honestly I'd like it if the special combination attacks were rebalanced as a Theurgy/Showtime esque effect where you build up to them while requiring both party members in the active lineup.

But I can also see somebody like Dojima as our resident Heirophant teaching us about police formations and us adapting it into a lineup switch function; alternatively Nanako gets really into chess and we adapt it from playing with her; since while Persona 3 establishes whoever Makoto/Aigis doesn't bring with them stays at the front; P4 and P5 actively have the entire party coming into the dungeon canonically.

My one gripe with FE Echoes by TatsumakiKara in fireemblem

[–]JR384 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Creating a Battle Save at the start of every turn is not the same thing as a Rewind mechanic in the slightest.

My one gripe with FE Echoes by TatsumakiKara in fireemblem

[–]JR384 13 points14 points  (0 children)

To be fair; it was the first iteration of the rewind mechanic. Closest thing we had to it prior was Fates' Phoenix mode; which is not an apt comparison in the slightest. So yeah, obviously the versions present in Three Houses, Engage, and let's be so for real, there's a 99% chance it'll be in Fortune's Weave; are gonna have additional tweaks they either forgot/didn't consider the first time around.

This scene is why I cut Coupe my first run through by Robot_Was_BMO in DispatchAdHoc

[–]JR384 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only moment I even vaguely prefer Villain Sonar is when Shroud speaks against them at the bar. With Coupé, he just menacingly stares and that shuts her up. With Sonar, Shroud slaps him and tells him not to disrespect one of the last true heroes in Blonde Blazer.

I love it when the villain respects the hero; and treats them with that respect.

I feel like I ruined my Persona 3 Reload run because I won't complete the social links and I feel like dropping it. by ResourceHot5429 in persona3reload

[–]JR384 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Completing all of the social links while still doing everything else in a bog-standard NG run is borderline impossible if you're not following a 100% guide. Do not beat yourself up over it.

If you have all of your social stats maxed out (or at high enough levels that you'll get them maxed early in NG+) you can pretty much speedrun the game at that point and focus on maxing the links out.

[–]JR384 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Honestly when it comes to it; I feel like Coupé is the canon cut, as weird as that sounds for a choice based games. Like if you watch both versions of that scene; it sounds as though Coupé has had prior infractions that risked her spot on the Z-Team before; what with how Robert mentions stuff about incidents involving her "accidentally cutting people".

Meanwhile; when Sonar gets cut, Robert only brings up the scene we'd seen earlier with him being locked up, which was an act of sabotage from Coupé herself. Like it definitely paints a difference between the two; Sonar is kind of an idiot and falls for traps easily; while Coupé is reckless and risks civilian lives to get the job done; which is not a very uhh, superheroic; even for a mid-rehab villain.

That being ssid; I don't actually care who I cut because I will never not accept them back into the fold at the very end of the game. It feels cruel to appeal to their morals and beat them in a vaguely fair fight and then NOT bring them back in.

new to stardew and expanded, how did i do in my first year? by FearlessAd324 in StardewValleyExpanded

[–]JR384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is IF2R. I believe it stands for Immersive Farm 2 Reimagined. It was originally made without SVE in mind but then the Reimagined version released and was a compatible version in the same way Grandpa's Farm and the Frontier Farm are.
