Oh, they make him the WORST human possible so he’s the perfect dude to start the main story with. It never quite gets that level of “Yeah, I want to beat up this scumbag!” again but it’s a great start. Yea it was more personal with Kamoshida tho I guess you could say the same about Shido but even then he was sort of more over the top Kamoshida was probably the best way to start off with them basically suggesting he raped or at the very least sexually abused Shiho on top of his shit with Ann, his abuse of the students and trying to get the protagonist expelled You also spend much more time.interacting with Kamoshida and his victims. His plot is also more grounded and realistic. You can relate more to it than Evil McDonalds President

Yea, which is due to the game restricting you essentially and not having the open world you would have with everyone else tho that's not to say it is a bad thing It happened in school and gets you involved from jump so you feel a personal stake to save Ann, help Ryuji and just stop this fool in general because he's being allowed to treat people like shit and no one is speaking up

If you can, I would say play the Vanilla version that is out now and get the Royal version when it comes out next year Based upon what we know there is going to be enough differences to the games will look different but if you can only settle on one then wait for the Royal edition

Like not even a little.

I mean essentially they tried to do that with everyone with the whole change of heart shit. Get on your knees and cry and beg for forgiveness Hell, even Akechi with his sacrifice was supposed to redeem him but nah f*** that kid

It only gets more insane from their Oh, I know. My friend did a whole play through on Twitch. He even titled the final stream of the game “Lucifer Saves Christmas”, because he had just fused that Persona. Oh, they make him the WORST human possible so he’s the perfect dude to start the main story with. It never quite gets that level of “Yeah, I want to beat up this scumbag!” again but it’s a great start. He also had the best boss design. None of the others came close until the Endgame, IMO. I preferred Madarame and Sae’s boss designs.

Okumura was sympathetic in the sense he was Haru’s father and her watching him have a mental shutdown and die on live TV kinda sucked. I felt bad for her, not for him. I also thought Akechi should have the last boss before the end of the world stuff kicked in.

I knew there was one other boss design that I really liked but could not remember which one it was, since I only watched a play through have have yet to.... play through.

Yea, Sae design I liked Coginitive version of Wakaba ended up being a fun design too

Really hoping some of the Palaces get some serious polish in The Royal. Shido's in particular is just awful, all of the hallways look the same, the hunting down the letters of recommendation drags on much too long and is way too repetitive, and the mouse puzzles get old extremely fast.

Just remove the mousa puzzle and it get 80% better

The Wakaba thing has to be some kind of fakeout. She's way too central to both Futaba and Sojiro's characterizations to just have alive.

They walked back a character dying in Persona 3 Portable despite how central that was to several characters' development, so I definitely wouldn't put it past them.

Given that there is a human Morgana and Futaba's Mother ,it mais just be a "cognitive" reality. Will it undo the character devlopment futaba went through her palace?Maybe

They walked back two deaths in that, made it so that you had to do specific things to keep both alive, then shoved the entire thing into non-canon land with the "alternate universe" excuse. Still wouldn't put this past them, though.
