Kyo Ani always finds a way to make anything a hit, they are too good. Eventually they will be one over and get over their fear of shows not about cute girl main characters.

There's two more dungeons if you're going for true end. The first one is unlocked if you continue the investigation and don't pin all the crimes on Narutame.

Heaven has the best fucking music of the game, right above Void Quest (?), for me.

Wait, so you haven't begun her link yet? You should be able to once she has recovered, but you still need max intelligence or whatever to initiate it.

I had max intelligence, I got some "White key" from an agent im suppose to give to Naoto, but I just get prompted to ask her out.

And that other guy telling me about the true ending, im already against Namatame, he turned into a shadow, he SHOULD have had a persona. Which means the real Namatame escaped or something. Or maybe he was a puppet. I dunno, but it doesn't seem right.

[spoiler]there is no other guy because i just double posted[/spoiler]

Nope, the shadow is the real Namatame. Once you beat the boss, he'll return to normal and be confined in a hospital until you confront him later on.

Holy fuck that hospital scene was the most convoluted progression stilt ever. Christ. It was all trial and error, but I got everyone to lay off Namatame after like 10 attempts. I wasn't satisfied with the ending at all, there was so much left unexplained. As it turns out fucking up even 1 dialogue line sends you straight to the bad ending. After that whole mess we found the real killer, I am now searching for him in the T.V. world. What was it, neo Inaba? Eh. Im just glad theres more game to play.

well if anybody wants to talke then im here i just started watching attack on titan and i love it

Holy crabapples, I just beat Persona 4 Golden and got the true ending. Man this game was the melody to life for the past few weeks. Now it's over and I feel empty inside. It was sooooooo good.
Final playtime: 87 hours.

I maxed out all social links with Kou & Daisuke, Yumi, Yukiko, Yosuke, Kanji, Teddy, and Chie who was my girlfriend. I came close with Marie and Nanako, both with 9. All party members I mentioned I maxxed social links with also got their persona transformed a third time, which was good since that final boss would have been much harder.
Now I have a greater appreciation for Persona 4 Arena.

Anyway, I bought a Vita for and ONLY for Persona 4 Golden. I came for Persona, so lets see what will make me stay. In my quest to beat every Final Fantasy game the Vita will help out alot, 3, and 4 are on the Vita, and I just saw a review of 4, I think FF4 complete will be my next JRPG but...maybe later, im suffering RPG burnout, I need to play....something else to take my mind off it.

My first playthrough lasted a little more than that at about 94 hours, but P3P took the same amount of time as yours did. How complete is your compendium, btw? I got mine to ~75%, and then got it to 99% with the second cycle.

Burnout's a natural feeling after you've followed such a great cast of characters for that damn long; my FeMC playthrough of Persona 3 has been sitting un-played for awhile now.

You're missing out on some good demons, bro. The Death social link awards you with Alice for completing it.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF- WHY WOULD YOU PLAY THAT BEFORE THIS GAME?!!!?

Any there any original IPs for the PSV yet? So much fucking ports. My PSP's the same way because most (or perhaps all?) of the games I have are ports or emulated from other consoles. I honestly don't know why anyone would get a PSV for JRPGs when the 3DS has got SMTIV and Soul Hackers; the former being a new entry in the series whereas the latter was never released in English.

I think FF4 complete will be my next JRPG but...maybe later, im suffering RPG burnout, I need to play....something else to take my mind off it.

Meh, SRW Operation Expend is filling up my JRPG/SRPG quota at the moment. Shit's pretty fun if you know Japanese or if you've played previous games in the series.

I just checked for specifics, that number was based on what I saw last...I spent an awful long time in that dungeon, 95 hours and 13 minutes. The compendium read 53%
Once I had my all star cast there was little reason to make more, and any persona fusions asked for two or more of my entourage of heroes to which I say no sir.

Actually there was a fusion accident and the result of it was Alice. She didn't do much worthwhile. The just mamundo and whatever that move is that disspells enemy stat boosts. I got the white rider through a fusion accident and he is my favorite light/dark monster. He's so OP.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF- WHY WOULD YOU PLAY THAT BEFORE THIS GAME?!!!?

Because I was curious about Arena, at the time I had only played Capcom fighters before realizing they are all garbage, Skullgirls was a refreshing change of pace and showed me not all fighting games are lethally high in sodium, Skullgirls remains one of my favorite fighting games for it's fairness, then I heard great things about P4A and the concepts intrigued me, so I bought it when the complete edition ended up on sale on the PSN. And it's a pretty damn good game. The story mode in that game was a good way of telling when something was fishy in P4G, when I spotted some inconsistencies in the hospital scene.

The 3DS didn't have Persona 4, ergo there's no reason to own it. If something caught my eye on the 3DS I would have bought it, but I didn't.

3DS does have Shin Megami Tensei IV, both Devil Survivor and Soul Hackers....Let's be honest and agree that a lot of amazing 3DS games are all Megami Tensei.

Im confused about Shin Megami Tensei, at first I thought SMT and Persona were the same game, but then I was told they weren't, but then I saw some gameplay of SMT3 and noticed all they were were personas. Is SMT a game where you play as the Personas themselves? Do the games take place in the same universe? I don't understand. Just something that isn't clicking and Google searches don't answer that stuff.
What is the relevance between SMT and Persona where Personas full name is Shin Megami Tensei Persona?

I'll try my best. Sorry if I confuse you more.

In the main series and other spinoffs, you're using demons but Persona calls them 'personas.' DeSu, Strange Journey, mainline stuff, etc, all use the term demon to refer to them.

Is SMT a game where you play as the Personas themselves?

Not exactly. You usually play as humans but it's possible to fight with groups of demons by 'persuading' them in games like P2, SJ and the SNES games. I'm still somewhat angry they stripped that mechanic for the Persona 3/4 games -- perhaps for a more casual audience? -- because it makes the game more interesting

Do the games take place in the same universe? I don't understand. Just something that isn't clicking and Google searches don't answer that stuff.

I can't really answer with complete accuracy/knowledge, but it's dependent on whether you're playing mainline or spin-offs. It's clear that the Persona games are set in the same universe because of P4 Arena; I assume it applies to everything else as well.

What is the relevance between SMT and Persona where Personas full name is Shin Megami Tensei Persona?

Persona is a spin-off of the main series, but everything belongs to the same franchise. The name, "Shin Megami Tensei," translates to something along the lines of "Reincarnation of the Goddess."

But don't you still do that in P3 and 4? You play as humans and gather personas to fight along side you. Based on how you described it the only difference is that summoning them in person just makes them stand next to you. Feels pretty much the same to me.

Nah, I meant that you can talk to the demon themselves to join you, during battle. Chance time strips that mechanic away with easy mini-games after battle that allow you to acquire monsters. It's difficult to lose at those unless you purposefully blind yourself when it happens.

So basically the whole under lying theme in Shin Megami Tensei games (be it Persona, IV, Devil Overlocked etc. etc.) is the use of demons to perform turn based battles. Whether you call them Personas, demons, spirits the main main main similarity is that they are all derived from demons/gods/and folklore that the player uses to conduct battles

Has the Legend of Korra concluded yet? If so, how does it end?

Only the first season has ended so there's not a definite/true conclusion yet. I don't remember much shit from season one, but I'm sure it was a good end.

I see. I asked because I was a bit concerned that it was gonna end with bending disappearing from the world and everybody losing their powers forever. I hope not.

fuck, is that how S1 really ended? It's been a while since I saw it, but damn was I wrong about a happy ending.

I'm glad season two's coming out, though. I can't wait to watch it.

I don't know how it ended. I was just getting a feeling that it could happen, with Amon going around taking the bending power away from people. And with the modern age arriving and things changing, I thought it could go with that theme.

*SPOILERS

Amon and his brother blew themselves up on a boat and Aang gave Korra back her powers in the form of a vision.
Doesn't feel like there's alot you can work with from there. Unless it's like DBZ and we find out the world/universe has no shortage of super powered assholes.
"And so peace returned...for now." Kind of thing :\
