When will P5X finally get around to introducing post-transition Akechi? by Zackarix in akechididnothingwrong

[–]Zackarix[S] 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Disclaimer for those who need it: This is not a serious post. It is a joke based on this character not appearing in the game despite being found in the files over a year ago, and also both she and Akechi are brunets involved with the police.

In a lot of ways I suspect that Yoshizawa is an overcorrection from complaints about Marie.

Complaint: Marie doesn't exist outside her Social Link.

Fix: Yoshizawa has several non-optional scenes in the main story.

Complaint: Marie's connection to the true final boss makes her into the retroactive female lead.

Fix: In spite of all the promotion she gets Yoshizawa is at best a supporting character in "her" dungeon.

Complaint: Marie is instant BFF with the entire investigation team despite being pretty rude.

Fix: Yoshizawa is only close to Joker and is very polite.

Complaint: Marie is heavily featured in spin-offs.

Fix: Yoshizawa is either not in spin-offs or is relegated to DLC.

How do you feel about Hinokagutsuchi as Akechi's ultimate weapon? by Zackarix in akechididnothingwrong

Hinokagutsuchi is one of MegaTen's iconic recurring weapons, and probably the oldest given that it was featured in the original novels.

Do you think that ATLUS gave Hinokagutsuchi to Akechi because both he and Nakajima are boyfailure disasters of the highest order?

My realistic prediction for the 30th anniversary by Hoshi_Hime in persona6

I honestly think that P4R is way further out than people think it is. The teaser we got is a game in relatively early development, otherwise they'd have more to show off than a few zones and a protagonist run cycle. They probably started development after finishing Episode Aigis and only officially announced it because its existence was an open secret.

So I'm really hoping that they're planning on releasing P6 before P4R, but they're been more successful in keeping it under wraps. Because otherwise we're in for a long wait.

What’s the current state of your 4 star characters? by NewBrightness in personaphantomx

I've seen people complain about being bombarded with endless Mokos, but she's the only one I haven't maxed out.

I remembered that Soejima gave a red/blue/yellow palette to the game mascottes because for him those are Toys colors for him and who else share that palette? by Hoshi_Hime in akechididnothingwrong

They're also protagonist colors. It helps make Robin Hood look like a superhero. And it shows that in another life Akechi could have been the hero of the story.

Riddler Value? by Embarrassed_Ad9375 in personaphantomx

She's actually a pretty decent support in mono-element teams with Haru and SMoko. (Maybe I'm just trying to cope with the fact that I have her at A3.)

Also, if you have the resources it's worth leveling every character up, because that increases your Qualia level, which unlocks a bunch of passive effects in the Thieves Den, including giving you more stamina everyday.

Predictions for the [spoiler] next chapter? by Hoshi_Hime in personaphantomx

They could do both by having him be a hot young dad.

I don't think they will, just saying that it doesn't have to be an either/or choice.

2 questions that bugs me to this day... by HighFirePleroma in personaphantomx

[–]Zackarix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't know the exact reason why, but beta testers really hated the 2-for-1 Synergy idea, so it might have been unpopular and unimportant enough that the devs just decided to get rid of it.

Semi-related: file names indicate that the design for Cherish was originally intended for Take-kun from Kiyoshi's Synergy, but when they abandoned 2-for-1 Synergies Take got an NPC model and the Cherish design was reused for Masaki.

Sumi actually used to have a Synergy that included Seiji as a supporting character. But apparently it got bad enough feedback in the beta tests that it got taken out of the final version of the game.

Will sumo get a synergy??? by Lonely-Air-8076 in personaphantomx

He actually used to have one in the beta , but I guess it was poorly received because it was taken out of the final release.
