    Uggggh the Hanged Man link still breaks my heart after all this time.
    ...You know, I like cream puffs. I know it's kinda girlish. There's a good cream puff shop by our house, so every once in a while I'll buy some and take them home. If I put them in the fridge, Sis would eat 'em. She'd make up some lame excuse like, "I ate them for you since they were about to expire." So we'd always get into fights over the cream puffs.

    But now... the cream puffs don't disappear. I bought some, and they expired in the fridge. When I saw that, I thought, "Oh, maybe... Maybe Sis isn't here anymore," y'know. So I threw them away.

    I told you before, "If you ask me if I hate the killer, the answer is no." The truth is, it's not even a no... I don't know anything. I have a meaningless daily life... Just confused parents and a dark house. Just rotting cream puffs...

    Elizabeth really got pummeled with the nerf bat. No more Agidyne pressure.

    Adachi is a difficult beast, but he's too stylish to ignore.

    A game company having a livestream announcement on a weekend, when I'm not at work? Unheard of.

    I can safely say there's very few game companies where they can schedule a 'super important announcement', and be guaranteed it's probably that important. Atlus is one of those... only other company I can think of that might also count is Rockstar. They have announcements so rare they make goddamn events out of them that don't suck, and that's pretty rad.

    You can thank the Egocentric Police Dick for the win quote.

    Fuuka is an awesome round caller. "Round 1! Please start."


    And 'Margaret Wins' when Ken wins a round. That's a glitch alright.

    Except maybe the worst Persona 3 character competition.

    No wait, that's reserved for Nozomi.

    Hmmmm...should I go back and platinum P4G or let it rest? I only need a few more, relatively easily attainable, trophies. Probably the one that will take the longest is the "date someone" trophy just 'cause I'd need to max an S.Link and the "Register 100 cards" trophy just because I think I have all the lower-ranked ones.

    Downfusion and the 600,000 yen I have going into NG+ will make the compendium pretty easy.

    You didn't date someone your first time through?

    What about the trophy for Rise's navigation phrases? Apparently that one's really tough for some people, but I didn't even try and got it my first time through the game.

    I vote for going Platinum.

    I almost never date anyone when I play P4. I like to imagine he's holding out for Yosuke or Kanji. And I didn't think to look at the trophy list until I was nearly done with the game, and it was too late by then.

    I got the Rise one thanks to a Tarunda in Hollow Forest.

    If you're not going to date Naoto (obviously you aren't), Chie is the next best choice, but I guess you probably won't because you don't like her new voice?

    I found Rise and Yukiko's romance boring compared to those two.

    Does it have to be a party member?

    Because Ai is the correct choice.

    She doesn't have a Persona though

    Unless...

    Push her into the TV, then rescue her and then date her. In that order.

    Oh, okay.

    Ai would be a better party member than Naoto, though.

    And she'd have a better dungeon.

    Not that drama is much better.

    "I'm the best actress ever!"
    "I HATE MY DAD!"
    "I love my dad!"
    "My dad died!"
    "I can't act!"

    The end

    And then things get super awkward forever.

    When you go around and say bye on the last day, she's still standing there in the same spot, with her back turned.

    I like to imagine she hasn't moved since then.

    Yeah...Sun was...well, let's say I didn't care for that S. Link.

    Like I actively skipped through it...

    Which is funny because Sun in P3 was probably one of my favorite S. Links in that game.

  • Options
    BlackjackBlackjack Registered User regular
    Honestly I think band is not a horrible link, it's just a shame about her design. Still one of the worse ones in the game, but not horrible.

    But the worst links in P4 are still better than the worst links in P3. And the good ones are great.

    Yeah. I was looking through a list of the S. Links in P4 and pretty much all of them were solid.

    I think Sun and Temperance were probably my least favorite and even then I didn't completely hate them.

  • Options
    BlackjackBlackjack Registered User regular
    I wonder if Temperance reads differently to parents than to non-parents. "I love my kid but I don't think I like him very much" seems like something parents can relate to, even if society says they shouldn't.

    IIRC, there's a trophy for fusing Izanagi-no-Okami, which requires maxing every S Link on a single playthrough.

    For a moment I thought because of the Hiimdaisy comic Josh posted people were actually talking about the Sun-Band social link and I was going to say something like "There's only room in my heart to like one person that looks like they're younger than 10 and that's Nanako"

    Then I remembered Ai is the Moon social link
