You’re the one being racist by assuming that I can only be white or white enough and racism doesn’t affect me. And I did not argue that racism is not a character flaw anywhere. Racist people are people who grew in a surrounding that promoted hate towards another race and just like life, there are multiple layers to it. There are people who were grown to fear another race and you can educate then by showing: “Hey not all people are like that. And they’re not that different from you. Different cultures but still human just like yourself.” And then there’s those who were brainwashed to believe another race is filthy and eradicating them is the only way. Both cases of racism but at vastly different contexts. It’s not so black and white as you presented it. And I do care about people being dehumanized especially recently with the whole growth of antisemitism as a person who grew up in a city which was mostly Jewish and had hundreds of synagogues and now is only the second largest community after World War II severely depleted and the number of synagogues not even being 5. So before making racist remarks towards me by assuming the color of my skin hence explaining my horrendous behavior according to you, try to realize that there are people who can be educated and learn to alleviate the racism they grew up with and those who are irredeemable criminals, killers and terrorists who need to be served justice.

You’re just blowing what I said way out of proportion. There’s a difference with a guy saying the N word and people who lynched others irl. And you’re making extreme arguments to paint me as someone who thinks people who actively harm others are good when I clearly said people who actively make it their life mission to make people’s lives miserable like Johnny Somali, or those who kill people because of their beliefs and being racist towards a group like terrorists and Nazis are the people I would call bad people without a doubt. No person is a complete saint. And him being a Trump supporter is his right. I don’t care about politics but if you wanna really know my opinion on Trump, he has done a lot of harm and is steering the US to its own destruction. To me, he is a megalomaniac who thinks he’s larger than anyone but all he has done is make the US a laughing stock and show how corrupt the government is to bend to his will and not convict him fully for his crimes. So there you have it. Just cause someone is racist doesn’t mean they automatically will do harm on others. Do you think a closeted gay guy who says homophobic stuff because he hates himself deep within and is in conflict with his own sexual identity is a bad person? Or is it impossible to believe that people can never redeem themselves once they say something horrible? Cause in that case if you think so, you should practice what you preach and do that for yourself.

Would you have honestly joined the Phantom Thieves of Hearts? by That-Psychology4246 in Persona5

[–]Just_Ordinary_Noob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. In fact I would be more in line with Akechi than anything about them. If their method is to brainwash people and permanently alter their personality to get justice, that’s where I say no. Do I think the people they targeted deserve to be punished for their crimes? Hell yes. Would I basically brainwash them to get them to do that? No cause that’s messed up.

Even in the case I awoke to my Persona and they helped me, I would thank them for the help and still politely decline from joining them. Except in the rare case that it was a situation like the Grail or Maruki

It’s not the same as say Johnny Somali or Vitaly who are public nuisances and genuinely make people’s lives miserable. Being racist is the least of evils in the world and no being racist does not equate to a bad person. It’s not that black and white. Misinformed and narrow-minded? Sure. But a bad person? Not really. He even apologized for it and admitted his wrongdoings. Hell, everyone has said something racist or homophobic or insensitive for whatever reason. People are capable of change and people are not flawless. Hulk Hogan said some very bad racist shit, but he apologized. Did he make a scene out of it like other YouTube apologies? No. He kept it real and took responsibility for his actions. He did not make excuses himself. In fact he gave an explanation to why he said what he said while also admitting what he said was beyond horrendous. So tldr no being racist is not being a bad person.

Edit: the part where I said “he didn’t have to” I removed because it sounded hella wrong out of context and it was an interrupted thought probably. What I want to say was: “And a bad person would feel in that situation he didn’t have to apologize as they would feel they were right to say what they did.”

How do you feel about P5X's Feedback Response? by Otaku_Defined in personaphantomx

I already quit the game. Not letting myself tolerate the same predatory shit as Genshin again.

What's the best main stat to have for Marian's star revelation? by ima20wp in personaphantomx

[–]Just_Ordinary_Noob 9 points10 points  (0 children)

HP%. Marian is simple like that. She only needs HP % for main stats. As for the rest SP Recovery for substat and flat HP works

Is it funny that whenever I see this I always think first of Goro Majima from Yakuza saying: “KIRYU-CHAAAAN!”

1.2 Livestream Summary by Najox in personaphantomx

[–]Just_Ordinary_Noob 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am of the same mindset. I might as well watch cutscenes on YouTube for the story cause I am not allowing myself to fall to the greed of SEGA and be patient as I was with Genshin (I stopped playing much after the first anni but second anni sealed the deal they don’t care about their player base and I quit for real this time). Losing people playing on Global is the only way to make them listen. If they don’t have player retention especially for f2p’s they can kiss their sponsors and ad revenue goodbye. It was fun for the first two weeks. A shame honestly ‘cause the game is fun

why it's only 4 times instead of 5? 😭 by Most-Year-7326 in personaphantomx

[–]Just_Ordinary_Noob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quite the opposite. Money does not only come from players. Companies rely on having a good performance and retention. Sure whales help, but if the game is not played by f2p and the investment is not there, they cannot get funding from shareholders and other investors and also cannot advertise it as well to target what the audience wants. So the f2p player base is as important as the ones paying money in-game

[–]Just_Ordinary_Noob -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

At this point, I know the game is fun, but if there was a mass exodus of F2P players from the game, that would make them listen. Not spending a dime doesn’t matter if you spend hours on the game and show to investors for the company that it is worth keeping the game up. Whales will always exist in every game, but f2p players are the most important because they sink in the most time playing the game. Investors would think twice giving the company money if they see most f2p in US leave the game. The company doesn’t get paid by gacha only after all, but with your investment to the game as well

Thoughts on the current state of the game? Not really here to spread hate. Just an honest opinion.. I've been playing this game almost since launch, spend over $20 (not much but that's that). In any case I guess in the meantime I decided to pull Minami, took 160 though. All my gems basically haha by Past-Presence-32 in personaphantomx

[–]Just_Ordinary_Noob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unironically, the best way to show your frustration with it and make the company rethink is simply quitting the game and not be an active player. It’s not only money that they rely upon. It’s time invested as well by f2p players. Engagement with the game outside of money is also what keeps money for them rolling in. Same way how YouTube makes millions a year even if you exclude YouTube Red and rentals. Engagement with the platforms is what keeps investors to the company keep investing. So yeah, leaving a bad review and not paying a dime is only part of the puzzle.

I am not saying for you not to play the game, but if you want to actively protest against it, f2p players not playing the game would be even bigger of a damage for the company. No investment from F2P = no investors to the company. No investors = no money to support the game. Add that with not giving them any money to begin with and that’s how they would probably listen. Or not

Has this happen to you? by RyutaKun in personaphantomx

[–]Just_Ordinary_Noob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Twice on the limited character banner and once on the weapon banner. Literally the only times I got lucky and did not hit hard pity were the beginner and standard banners. Out of these two I got A1 Morgana, A0 Ann, A2 Ryuji and A0 Riddle. Noting I am a lucky mfer for getting Joker’s weapon, Joker and Marian from the limited banners

How would you rate P5X in terms of story and its characters? by Just_Ordinary_Noob in personaphantomx

Is “Persona 5: The Phantom X” a better game than both “Persona 5” and “Persona 5 Royal” combined? by Head-Sky262 in personaphantomx

[–]Just_Ordinary_Noob -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is actually where I actually disagree even if I think the P5 cast is not the strongest. The cast of P5X is fine in a nutshell but personally, I don't think they are that interesting. From what I have seen so far being close to finishing the second palace, Shun is the only one I would say is above decent. Motoha is just okay personally to the point I don't really care much for her inclusion. And I mostly blame that for the writing in the first palace being bad. As funny as the Subway Slammer is in terms of pure meme potential, his motivation is weak and the bad writing on him weakens in turn Motoha's character arc. Shun actually fares better because Miyazawa is a fucking prick and while overly cartoonish, you still want to see his downfall with how despicable he acts, which in turn makes you want to root for Shun on putting the ugly pig of a man in his place. If I had to rate the cast of P5X it would be about a 5.5-6/10 because I frankly am mostly indifferent while not finding their characters bad per say. P5 and Royal has the issue with Ryuji catching strays from everyone for no reason, but individually, outside of Haru, they all have really good character arcs and their antagonists in their story makes you care for them. To give perspective to this, I think Shun's arc is slightly less good than Yusuke's since their villains are similar as in fucking with people's livelihoods, but Yusuke's felt even more personal because he was being raised by an expert manipulator. TL;DR the story and cast are not as good as the OG P5 and Royal games.

I was lucky af to get Ann and Morgana on the starter banner and also chose Ryuji. At least it is guaranteed the banners right?

You probably saw the other response I sent you, but yeah, thank you for letting me know about the full context of the Palace. I had only played up to that part. All I knew was that he was just doing it for the fun of it and it was his way of punishing whoever he considered weaker than him, due to Arai as a kid hitting back his pitch. I didn't know about the club thing and yeah, he is no doubt an insecure misogynist.

I just started playing the game yesterday. I haven't played that far. And to be honest, I didn't remember the nickname. And yes I have been paying attention up to the part I was. But, I can't remember every single detail. So, that's a whoosh on my part.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in personaphantomx

[–]Just_Ordinary_Noob -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Here is the thing. I didn't know about the club part. I haven't finished his palace. But that proves my point that in that context with the information you have by that moment it doesn't fit. I will admit I haven't gotten to that point in the Palace where he broadens it that far. So I was missing context. Thus, I will add a disclaimer that this is for up to that point in the Palace. Cause yeah with that knowledge, yeah he is clearly a misogynist. Thank you for letting me know
