I gotta say, I haven’t finished it on the 3DS yet, however there’s many tweaks I saw you mentioned above, but one you didn’t mention which was a MASSIVE Pain on the PS1

After you get deep enough into the game you can start to resurrect the town that was turned to stone, shortly afterwards you can see the change.

It’s always interesting how connections or vibes differ between people. That’s humanity, after all. For example, I felt the same way you do...except for P3 and P4, whereas in P5 Ann really surprised me with how much I connected with her and I ended up romancing her. Read more

I’m replaying Dragon Age Inquisition right now and getting FFXII: The Zodiac Age next month, so I’m pretty much set. Read more

I was originally intending to romance Makoto (and still might) but am starting to think Hifumi might be the one. Possibly Futaba, but at the moment that would feel like taking advantage, so that isn’t even on the table. Read more

I’m hoping to focus on Persona 5 and beat it this summer, but I just checked my progress out of curiosity and found out that after 35 hours I’m only through 3 out of 8 palaces, which oddly took some wind out of my sails...I’ve also got to fight the urge to buy FFXII Remastered when it comes out even though I love that Read more

I have a friend on her first playthrough and she’s in the same boat - she basically is playing Akira/the Read more

So far you two have been doing great, been enjoying your articles so far, keep it up! Read more

Last week I sold $120 worth of old games back to the store, so I finally picked up Horizon Zero Dawn. My goodness, is that excellent! Read more

Everyone in P5 comes off as an asshole to me for some reason. I felt like they were missing the earnest, humble quality of most of the P4 cast. I still love the P5 cast (Yusuke, you’re so lovably weird,) and the date choices for me came down to Makoto and Tae. Read more

Nothing wrong with going the friend-route with everyone! I’d say choose the romance option to get the trophy and reload ;) You’ll miss out on a small gift (item) and a little bit of extra dialog, but really, it’s not that much. Read more

Personal taste is long hair beauties without glasses... None in this game ): Read more

Great single player experiences are akin to any other amazing narrative media, yes, but online multiplayer has its analogue in sports. I’m a naturally competitive person, but grew up lanky and awkward and just not at all athletic. Online gaming allows me to scratch that competitive itch and make a few new Read more

The rest of my year is almost exclusively multiplayer, a lot of Rocket League/R6:S broken up with occasional forays into various fighting games, sports games, et al. In short, I’m a competitive guy. Read more

I found Persona 5's Romance options and style to be completely lacking. I prefer Final Fantasy or other RPGs romance over giving gifts for empty extra scenes. Read more
