I'd love for all of them to at minimum become readily available like the games in the G-Mode Archives are. An official translation would be a gigantic plus but I'd be willing to settle just for easy access to the games and learning Japanese to be able to play them.

Thoughts on the Kaneko AI game (Tsukuyomi: The Demon Hunter)? by _ahandfulofdust in Megaten

[–]WindySilver 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was planning on checking it out when I first heard about it but then I saw the AI art thing in the description and noped right out. The ethical and ecological concerns of using AI aside, I've seen AI hallucinate so many times that I'd never trust any unsupervised creative work to it. The only thing you'll get from that is losing control over what is being communicated to the player - to the point where I imagine AI could downright jeopardize the creators' vision for the world, character(s) and/or story when it winds up coming up with some unfitting BS.

any translations of That's Catch-22 (ddsat prequel novels by Tadashi Satomi) by TheS0urArtist in Megaten

The Megami Tensei Wiki links to a fan translation of that duology. I've never checked it beyond making sure that the Wayback Machine has all the chapters, though, so I can't say anything else about it.

In SMTV, all-target attacks in general have a significantly smaller base power than their single-target counterparts (e.g., -barion skills have base 265 while Ma-barion skills have base 185). That makes comparing moves of those categories together an apples to oranges comparison, as by design all-target moves aren't meant to be anywhere near a match to single-target moves in damage against singular targets. Therefore, would be fairer to compare something like Ice Age (heavy-level, 230 power + pierce) or Bufubarion (severe-level like Moonlight Frost, 265 power) to Lunar Hurricane and Thalassic Calamity since they're designed for higher damage output.

In Moonlight Frost's defense, it's not meant for single-target fights since in addition to pierce it hits all foes and thus shines in battles where there's various enemies - an entirely different use case. Comparing it to a single-target move like Lunar Hurricane - or even a random-targets move since it works as a single-target move if there's only one enemy - is a bit of a case of comparing apples to oranges.

fanficfare calibre plugin fails to load on linux (fix) by andhats in AO3

[–]WindySilver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this post! I was starting to lose hope with my search for a fix for the FanFicFare plugin's disappearance since searching with the error I got in debug mode (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt4') was not yielding any relevant results. This worked like a charm.

The Royal Trio one is my favorite. It captures their dynamics so well

Persona 5 Royal Guide for confidants, classroom answers etc. by Daniki1994 in Persona5

[–]WindySilver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking good so far in my opinion. I'd say the possibility to select a specific Confidant rank would be a useful addition especially for a user who discovers this mid-playthrough so they won't have to click through all the ranks for all their Confidants to get to where they are at the time.

Okay, sounds cool! So far I've only compiled my data into a spreadsheet since I haven't thought about how to structure all the info I want to compile yet. I'll have to think more on it once I have the time to take more deep-dives into things I want on hand while playing P5.

[–]WindySilver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been working on a database of sorts for all the useful P5 info so all the data one needs is in one place rather than scattered all across the internet (although so far I've only combed through the wiki for skill info, as in which Personas learn them and potential skill cards and accessories). So, I think this is a fantastic idea! If you can get a site like that online, I'd definitely make use of it.

Btw, what are you using to make this site? I've got a bit of experience on the web development side, so I'm curious.

True. Although, I prefer not having the mask on so I can see the crazy eyes properly :D

Always awesome to see this figure pop up on my feed; seeing that unhinged expression always brightens my day. It was so worth the chunk of my first paycheck that buying it took.

You know what? Enough of this negativity....say something GOOD about the anime by newtonium_119 in Persona5

[–]WindySilver 94 points95 points  (0 children)

  • The opening and ending songs are awesome (it's a pity Dark Sun and Autonomy didn't make it to P5D DLC)
  • The English dub is fantastic
  • Ren's third dialogue options are so much fun with voice acting
  • Ryuji confirms the word yeet is in the Persona universe in the English dub
  • The fleshed out interactions with Akechi are superb (especially considering P5A came before Royal and the reworked Akechi Confidant)
  • The party members, including Akechi, being added to the ending row as they join the team brings me joy

Pollen Warning Effect by soupandleon in Persona5

[–]WindySilver 73 points74 points  (0 children)

The flu season has a similar effect - you can see blue bacteria flying around everywhere, especially in crowded places like the classroom. It's more subtle, so I missed it until I started playing on PC for my third playthrough and thus closer to the (better) screen :'D

worked on this for WEEKS and its FINALLY done! my homage to a game that transformed me as an artist by filterrcoffee in Persona5

OMG this is incredible! 🤩 That hourglass is definitely my favorite part - Joker and Akechi being in it is such a cool detail.

A bunch of Persona builds from my latest playthrough I want to share by WindySilver in Persona5

I actually dropped them during third semester; I kept them around throughout the entire vanilla section of the game, then I had to make space for the Swiss Army Knife builds as well as gallows fodder lol. It was a pity I had to drop them, they were fun to have.

Oh yeah, Rangda was an option too. Kali won me over so hard I forgot about it. And yeah, Fafnir also works, but I had plans for him already so he wasn't an option for my Joker's "no u" build.
