[[Some Persona 5 spoilers may be mentioned below.]]

Will of Rebellion: Which party member’s persona was your favorite?

Including the base forms, I think Carmen is my favorite of the party member’s personas. Milady gets points for having a fucking artillery under her skirt, but Carmen is my fave design.

Okay, real talk: A lot of the awakened personas in this game were really weak. In Persona 3 and 4 they all pretty much built off of the base persona so there wasn’t much room to fuck up. I appreciate that they took such a risk this time around… but good golly. Kamu Susano-o, Prometheus, and Seiten Taisei are all complete downgrades from their base forms and it hurts my heart. I’m ambivalent towards Anat. Side Note: We do not need any more Susano-o, for goodness’ sake. Hecate, Astarte, and Mercurius are all solid and I rather like them.

Thieves of Heart: Who did you romance?

I’m on my third playthrough- on my first run, Makoto. Second run, everyone (THAT WAS A BIG MISTAKE DON’T DO IT) but I picked Futaba for holidays and stuff, and on my current playthrough I plan to romance just Haru.

Distortion: Which palace was your favorite, and which was your least favorite?

My favorite was probably Sae’s. The music is the best palace music, the casino vibe is really aesthetically pleasing, and there’s no terrible gimmicks that drove me up a wall. If anything, her rigged games made me laugh. Plus, by that point the whole gang is together.

As for a least favorite, probably Okumura’s. It’s just not super fun, and the air lock float-through-space puzzle at the end is frustrating more than challenging. Also, a majority of the enemies in the palace either resist, null, or reflect physical moves (so if you don’t got SP adhesives or lots of coffee and curry, you’re fucked). I like to get palaces done in one day whenever possible. On my first playthrough, I didn’t have a lot of SP healing items because I didn’t know they’re damn near necessary, and so I had to do the fight against the three waves of grunt robos with JUST PHYSICAL MOVES. It took like a half hour and it was annoying as hell. The whole dungeon just doesn’t feel… satisfying.
