Turn depends on agility stat (you can see it when you view the persona), the persona with highest agility, between your teammates and the enemies, go first then the 2nd highest and so on.

The exception to this is an ambush where your entire team goes first for one turn then it returns to normal or when you get ambushed in which case all the enemies go first.

Morgana is also probably set to auto command at the start of the game, change him to direct commands under options -> stats -> tactics

Ah ok, I didn't know it was based on agility. Thanks.

Not to mention you're taking on someone

I love that that thing's name when you analyze it is "

I just got to the part where I got to hear Rivers in the Desert for the first time.

Holy fucking shit is that song HYPE or what

I haven't played the game in like a week and that song is still stuck in my head.

 

[Inquisitive_Ghost]

Spoiler

They've been doing that in the second 'hideout' as well before. It's just so dumb and apparent especially after the fact that they're actually smart enough to made that plan for Akechi before the 7th palace. It's just inconsistence.

Yeah, especially given that.

Spoiler

The cast is WAY more aware and clever than, say, the P4 crew, yet they keep doing this really stupid thing. Like why.

 

[Jiraiza]

Got my first rank 10 Confident with my homie Ryuji.

Spoiler

Fairly straightforward arc for him, though I'm disappointed it ended up being a very isolated affair between the MC and Ryuji (and the track members).

Really wish Atlus would leave their comfort zone and make these Social Links more dynamic. An obvious improvement would be to acknowledge that characters outside of the Confident and MC actually exist.

And farewell, Captain Kidd, I'll miss you, because the evolved Persona is ugly as sin.

I'm only about an hour into the game. Igor's new voice is really going to take some time to get used to. What do people here think about his new VA? I....don't really care for it at the moment, but maybe it'll grow on me as I get further into the game.

 

[Lusankya]

I'm really sad I finished the game. I can't replay such a long game. enjoy it guys, don't rush through it.

I know this feeling. When you finish a game and feel super sad during the credits then you know you've played something special. It's like you're losing something when you finish it and whatever you do, you will never be able to experience it for the first time again.

I think I only felt like this after finishing P3, P4, Zero Escape 1&2 and the Ace Attorney trilogy. In a way finishing these games is like saying farewell to good friends.

It's a trash fire and I skip his dialogue as soon as I'm dibe reading it.

 

[Lusankya]

How long does a NG+ run usually take? I'm thinking of going for the platinum before i jump onto another game, but does it take another 100+ hours, or being high level + most stats close to maxed makes it much faster?
Also how's the DLc difficulty?

Should be way faster, especially when you skip all story scenes. For P4 I needed 97hrs for my first run and then around 20-25 hrs for my NG+ run to get platinum.

 

[Chaos17]

I'm really sad I finished the game. I can't replay such a long game. enjoy it guys, don't rush through it

I'm so looking forward for it to end, story has dragged enough and was spoiled hours in ago by the game itself, I want to put an end 5o this.

 

[Lusankya]

This is how I felt...especially that ending !

Yeah, I haven't finished P5 yet, but I am sure it will be the same here.

I've finished enough of P5 to say it'll definitely be among my favorite games of all time.

I love his new voice, especially his clip when fusing strong Personas.

Seriously, I felt the same way with all the game you mentioned.. and the first Danganronpa, maybe. Looks like we have a very similar taste

Shame that the new AA games never quite reach what the trilogy's last case reached,

So, if I send the calling card, is that it? The point of no return? Should I wait until the very final day to send it to maximize confidants?

No the gameplay system doesn't change, you get all the days remaining. I'm not really sure why this question keeps popping up though because it should be pretty apparent by then that if you take down a palace early

Spoiler

the palace ruler goes to sleep for a while until the days run out.

 

[Dmax3901]

A tad late perhaps, but here's my review.

 

[Triteon]

Im at the end of may and i already feel like starting over because i feel really far behind.

The thing stopping me is that i dont know if id actually use my any more effectively

Play in easy mode lvl up your stats finish story then do new game plus because it's useless to start over. Unless you use a guide the game force you into new game plus.

 

[silva1991]

Finally maxed out moon arcana. Goddammit that took long.

Well time to make the ultimate personas.

 

[brainslug]

Finished the 6th palace.. (major story spoilers)

Spoiler

When Akechi killed the main character I was sure I screwed up somehow and got the bad ending. But it was all a part of the plan. Haha, clever.

 

[TuXx]

Played for 12 hours yesterday *Goes to sleep, wakes up 3 hours later* Time for more Persona!!


This game is ruining my life...

 

[Shotgun Kiss]

I finished the first palace a couple of in-game days ago, but I don't seem to be able to socialise with Ryuji or Ann, even though when I check the network, other people seem to be able to.

Is it random as to if certain people are available to socialise with?

Please help, as I'm reluctant to continue if I could be wasting my days.

Well maybe it's special since the game hyped it all so much that this is going to be the Phantom Thieves' last job and even gave an Are You Sure question before you send it. I am just being cautious.

Anyways, thanks.

[nOoblet16]

It's so good to use your end game gear and persona to mow down the enemies in first castle on NG+. The first castle was the hardest because you are so underprepared and lack any abilities and now it's my time to get revenge.

 

[Zolo]

Aw yeah!

8/4 and my stats are:

Knowledge: 4
Guts: 4
Charm: 4
Kindness: 3

Do the calling card immediately after because your group confidants disappear until the boss has been beaten.

Currently on 10/30 and my Kindness is still at 3. I've basically lost all hope that I can get it to max and do it's linked Confidants in time.

*high-fives back*

Yeah, Danganronpa is also up there. It's quite normal to like the others if you like one game in the list. After all they are all basically Visual Novels with gameplay. Of course Persona has a lot of gameplay, while the others have not so much. But in the end they're similar and feature strong casts and interesting stories.

I actually do enjoy all Ace Attorney games, but the emotional connection to the first trilogy was especially strong, because I played all three games in a row. And T&T is just such an epic finish. But individually I think AAI2 and AA6 are up there with AA3.

 

[Rozart]

Oh god. 'Mes Miserables' ahaha. I wished we got to see more.

Alright, I only have Haru left at 9 for my teammates Confidants.

Here we goooooo.

When does one get to Akihabara? In a trailer I saw the protagonist playing some games and I take it that's where you get them.

And are there any P4 character cameos apart from the Rise ads at Shibuya Station?

Yes but people never linked it here just talked about it.

Yeah, try the one on Gamefaqs.com
It's far from being optimized, yet still mages to finish all Confidants, books, and video games during a first playthrough. With a little bit of optimization you can probably also get the fishing trophy.

Use this guide plus the Fortune rank 7 ability and you will have even more free time left.

Why can I never hang out with Ann? She used to hang out in the classroom but it said my kindness was too low and now I have it up she's vanished. I can't see her on the map or at school???

Underground Mall. You can also check the map to see who is available.

Blue tarot card on the map means a confidant is available. You can also press square to see if it's about to rank up or not.

 

[Shotgun Kiss]

Am I missing something, or is it pointless to spend time with Sojiro when it won't level you up, as it's better to make coffee? Both seem to give 1 point for him, but when making coffee you get a useful item out of it.
