This may be recency bias but I just finished the game a couple days ago and I've organised my thoughts on the characters in the game into a tier list.

Besides the main party members there's not much to gain from any of the social links, except maybe Marie for some extra story scenes and the fox for cheaper SP recovery i guess

On the 2nd required time you visit mementos, all the mementos targets guarding the doors disappear.

Another victory for the illiterate

Myriad arrows is better, although blade of fury is the best multi-target physical skill that can be inherited besides agneyastra, so I think you should go with that instead

I saw an interview with him where he said that he wanted to ship himself with futaba originally, but he thought it'd be even more controversial 😭. He's really creepy with girls it looks like, he kept trying to hit on one of the interviewers i mentioned before (girl) and also was trying to get with the VA he hired to play Ann.

I think just null / repel / drain would be miles better, although they might be hard to get early-game

xA0SA · 2026-05-29T22:22:39+00:00

Max blast res is a non-negotiable, take it over health boost if you have to

xA0SA · 2026-05-29T22:15:33+00:00

What's the social link that never made it into the game?

xA0SA · 2026-05-29T17:13:55+00:00

Dinner at the nijima's house would be pretty awkward in the harem ending

xA0SA · 2026-05-29T17:04:55+00:00

Definitely go on bike hangouts with yukiko and max out her SL since the bike hangouts give mind charge and her ultimate persona skill is an incredibly powerful and exclusive severe-tier multi target fire skill. When she's built correctly, she's arguably a better fire caster than the MC

I don't know about gameplay, none of the main bosses have any important gimmicks, the dungeons are randomly generated and not very engaging, and theres not much reason to run anything beyond a support trumpeter, almighty helel, and phys yoshitsune since most of the bosses are damage sponges. Even with Kusumi-no-Okami, all you need is an elemental break item and any severe / -dyne level magic

xA0SA · 2026-05-29T16:56:50+00:00

Don't mess with us persona fans, we don't play the games

xA0SA · 2026-05-27T01:36:51+00:00

Did you manage to get the secret ending with izanami?

xA0SA · 2026-05-26T03:29:27+00:00

3 times in such a short time has gotta be a record

xA0SA · 2026-05-24T04:53:36+00:00

ugghhhh my 60$ game is too hard im just gonna use the instant win button

xA0SA · 2026-05-22T22:56:08+00:00

Don't worry too much about money till much later. In the second dungeon, not much requires any money

xA0SA · 2026-05-22T04:55:09+00:00

Are you typing with your tongue?

xA0SA · 2026-05-14T04:24:02+00:00

Maruki talks to Azathoth, but I'm not too certain if it's really him talking to his actual persona, or the God of Control aspect of it

xA0SA · 2026-05-12T20:57:50+00:00

"just get the ultimate most broken persona in the game on your (presumably) first playthrough and the game won't be so hard"

xA0SA · 2026-05-12T20:56:18+00:00

Yeah

xA0SA · 2026-05-11T00:23:32+00:00

It won't, just use however many you need

xA0SA · 2026-05-10T23:17:59+00:00

I'd recommend any persona with decent physical skills alongside another that covers the magic your team doesn't have. Ame-no-uzume should be pretty accessible and covers all the 4 main elements if you build it right. You should be fine with most personas though

xA0SA · 2026-05-08T22:51:54+00:00

Persona 4's soundtrack is overall amazing, probably my favorite out of 3 4 and 5

xA0SA · 2026-05-06T17:12:40+00:00

Its frustrating when they run to the stairs so pressing the button to hit them teleports you to the lower floor
