If a Persona game focused on the Internet, the party member personas would HAVE to be VTubers, and I know which one would go to the protagonist, I'll give you a hint, he's a member of Holostars EN

After watching this chapter again, I think you’re meant to use the ballistas and magic turrets to reduce the enemy’s hp to 1, and then attack them to prevent seal defense and lunge. I know this was blind, but I think if I took a closer look at the layout if I was blind, I could figure it out.

This is a reminder that your ass, as per this legal document, belongs to Heat. Also, Jeez Laweez, I did not expect the F-bomb carpet bombing there. I noticed a lot of the later field hunts depend on you knowing where the tracks are, and some of them being RIGHT BEHIND YOU, or on a trail you've been to before, when it was seemingly established that they wouldn't respawn there!

One of the things that makes field hunts annoying is that while Serph _can_ attack while moving, the glowy demon orb things are solid. You have to time your attacks _just_ right so that the orb is gone before you run into it and stop, or else you get slowed down a lot. The camera controls also don't lend themselves well to time-critical stuff. The best thing I can think of doing is using the quick 90 degree turn (hold circle and press L1/R1) but you still waste time looking around for the next orb if you don't memorize where they all are.

Yusuke is so broken that it's not even funny

One thing that makes this bearable is that these teleporters/sideways pitfalls cannot immediately toss you into another teleporter/sideways pitfall.

You are so right by recommending therapy! I had to go to counseling for many anxiety related issues and without my life would not be the way it is right now

26:00 WOAH IS THAT FKN GOKU?

31:02 one of my favourite proofs by contradiction is that there are an infinite number of prime numbers. You basically take a small set of them like 2, 3, 5, 7 and 11, multiply them all together and add one, in this case giving you 2311, this number is not divisible by any of the prime numbers, which either means it's prime or it's divisible by some other prime that's not on the list, thus reality would implode if their were a finite number of primes

0:51 I am reminded of the time I ran into the true final boss of Nocturne. The elephant. Unfortunately for me I did not remember during the wild Elephants he repelled phys. The number of times I focus divine shotted myself nigh to death is beyond the number that it should be.

12:44 Of course Invisible walls dont show up, Klingy They're Invisible for a REASON :P 25:29 Serph now has the power to steal faces! Wow- (For those outta the loop: it's a Miitopia joke-)

17:30 Sisyphean dungeon design 19:49 Rare instance of BigKlingy swearing? 24:30 Persona when enemy repel: Okay, and? SMT when enemy repel: OH NO! 25:15 Who would've thought that having the only character that can use that skill be the same character who can cause a game over if he falls in battle, would make it a bad skill. Atlus is so wise in game design 35:24 Skills that does damage and apply debuff is so useful in a game. Leg Stab from Artificial Dream in Arcadia is pretty good for this reason with its equivalent of sukunda 35:44 Sera: Surely this trap will stop them

@8:12 this is a detail I really love about this theme, same as the Nocturne final dungeon as well as Tartarus

0:32- I get why, but it kind of sucks when a super boss's instant cheese measures are easy to accidentally trigger. Remember having issues with that with team building for IV's Fiend Fights and always worrying about if the one or two members who don't null each bosses' main element dies, it just goes into Almighty spam. 19:33- RIP Klingy's sanity. 19:50- Uncensored Klingy F-Bombs just show how seriously annoying these hunts have pushed him... Not even *Sun Door 2* of all things did that! ... Just how awful are these late game field hunts?! 20:58- You also know if it gets bad when the LPer/Streamer needs to bring up a walkthrough mid recording/stream. Seriously, what the actual hell are these late game field hunts?! 31:22- Yeah. For the most part it's not outright maddening, more annoying, but the first or second layer of the Womb of Grief was particularly evil with doing that kind of stuff. 31:38- Okay, real talk about Sector E; It's not nearly as bad, at least not until that top left portion in my opinion. I actually got through that area fine until I got to the teleport maze at the top left, but not because I was lost, but to check to make sure I didn't miss any loot. And then that cause me to learn that this place is supposed to be the infamously bad dungeon and then I started having a bad time since all those complaining pricks jinxed me in having issues there. Sector E is honestly well designed outside of the major since you tackle the dungeon in four chunks for that main floor and it's not too bad to manage that. Besides the maze, maybe some of the sub floors and the pit falls that drop you into the bottom right are annoying, but other than that, fairly manageable and I would say Sector G is more of a pain to get through. In other news, a very busy day as you can tell by this shorter comment. But before the busy day, A LOT of progress in Vengeance as I've gotten done another major arc for the game. Can't disclose much due to reasons, but what I can say is how Vengeance continues to greatly deliver in spite of some gripes that I know only bother me more than it does others. Outside of that, the game continues to be great. Before I continue onto more major matters, going to do some clean up for side quests, including a side quest fight that's proving annoying, less so for difficulty, but more so finding an efficient way of doing it.

Wow I didn't expect the game to go THIS hard on the Hindu themes but wow that temple that totally won't be the final dungeon couldn't be more Hindu if it tried haha

The scrapped lockpicking minigame looks a lot like the one in _The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion_

10:18 Spoiler This is because lucina make a incomplete awakening ritual

Not sure if P4 or 5 does this but I do think in the context of at least party member social links not taking place on Sundays/School vacations I do think there could have at the very least been alternative versions that do take place in the school for certain ranks in the dorm or something (or maybe this was something beyond the budget for this aspect of the game) because that would really help certain party member SL’s (especially Yukari’s where you get only one potential day with her in the first half of the game) when you consider that most of the Party Member social links don’t take place in the school as it stands iirc.

For rough estimates, 3 feet is about 1 meter.

19:53 calmest Australian

Oh wow, I guess counters can get reflected in this game? In Nocturne they were nice enough to have reflect or drain just act as null to a counterattack.

I always keep a single-target and a multi-target skill on my Demons/Personas just because I've trained myself to be extra SP/MP conscious in games where you can't heal magic nearly as often or efficiently as HP. Multi-targetting magic skills tend to cost over double the MP/SP of single-target skills and so if there's only one or two enemies weak to a given element it's usually more cost-effective to use one or two casts of single-target spells than one cast of a multi-target spell. This also tends to be why I kinda hate severe-tier spells in post-P4 MegaTen games since they consistently cost way too much for the damage they deal in return even after buffs and boosts. Single-target physical skills, though? Literally everything in these games has a basic attack function. It often won't do as much as a skill but it also costs nothing. It's not uncommon for my runs of Nocturne to have physical Demi-Fiend only using his basic punch Attack for half the game until I start unlocking the good shit like Divine Shot.

8:39 Deem Bristow's Eggman is one giant meme fest! 15:29 That's brilliant! Making the probes worth tons of money so that the people they're set to observe turn them in to you! 21:05 This is pure evil! 35:42 There's no way to know if it's a pitfall, left, or right, though.

49:07 although the conversation they have with *spoiler* in one of the dlc leaves some doubts about that xd

22:12, I don’t think you’re meant to fight Ryoma in this chapter, especially considering how good he is at dodge tanking

3:40:23 No, you were right. According to the artbook, the age difference between Mist and Boyd and Mist and Rolf is the same. Boyd is three years older than Mist and Rolf is three years younger. 3:47:45 Timestamp for your convenience. 3:48:54 So that's how long she had left... 3:49:41 Wouldn't that be Ryoji-ed in this case? 3:53:46 Mitsuru... you had that coming. 3:56:41 This is also why I don't like people saying Shadow surviving cheapened his sacrifice in SA2. If anything, his life got even more screwed up because of the consequences of that moment. 3:58:31 But... isn't he still... terminally ill? 4:01:51 You're damn right it doesn't count! 4:05:20 I did not know that. The devs really showed us how they feel about simps. 4:11:41 D'awwwwww! 4:18:46 What is Kinder Surprise? I'm assuming it's German. 4:19:48 You can complain about America as much as you want as far as I'm concerned. As someone who lives there, I know it has issues to say the least. To say the most would probably invoke murderous intent in others, so I don't. I CAN say that, according to a lawyer-turned-college-professor I know, corporations have more rights under the law than humans do in America. It doesn't help that corporations fund politicians, coercing them to make laws that benefit them. 4:22:54 Plot hole: if the Infinity Stones could wipe out half of all life in the universe to balance the "sentient beings to resources" ratio (AND revive those beings from being turned to dust), they could also just create more resources. Someone in-universe should have brought that up in Infinity War. I guess Thanos did mellow out after murdering Gamora, and maybe that's why his past self is even worse? 4:29:27 Anti-what? 4:41:23 It works. Lorenz with no moral obligations to help people. 4:42:36 I'm going to borrow a line from another Fire Emblem noble here. Mitsuru: "Know your damn place!" 4:43:22 Said the man-child. 4:45:41 I mean... I DO like this, but I think she should have lost it when he said, 'I'm glad your dad's dead.' 4:45:51 The only people who would side with YOU over him are the other parasites! 4:47:08 Forget the Group! You have a Rapier and you know how to use it! 4:47:41 That is a safe bet. 5:07:47 Does Bebe show up on the Final Day if you don't max his Social Link? Obviously he wouldn't have a special event, but if so, I wonder what he would say? 5:08:36 Can someone please explain to me how data degradation works? I fear for my Path of Radiance 15 Clear Save Files... 5:14:14 "We have rejected the Mitsuru and embraced the Aigis." Mitsuru five seconds later: "Spring is just around the corner, *as they say.* " 5:31:15 There are SO many ways that can go wrong! 5:32:45 I never considered this before I read it on TV Tropes, but I like that there are two implied reasons why the Laplace Mail breaks down. The first one (which I guessed) is that the party overturning the predictions causes major errors to the system. The second (after reading about the theoretical Laplace's Demon) is that the system can't predict the future anymore because reality is collapsing in on itself (if you know, you know). 5:33:32 I also really like the line where Remiel says that the other Angels are pushing for taking away free will, and God rejected that proposal to give them a reprieve to fix the mess they created. With how overzealous most angels are these games, how little God actually appears in this series, and that most of the games take place in separate universes can we definitively say that each version of God is... corrupt, for lack of a better term? Something to think about. 5:36:41 SMT: a series able make stories that snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. 5:39:07 And as ridiculous as it sounds, you can get reps from the opposite alignments to help you on the new 8th days depending on your choices! 5:44:10 That's a flawed analogy to begin with because you can just paint over the gaudy parts once the paint dries. 5:46:10 I wouldn't consider Yoko's motivations a spoiler because you can see them coming from a mile away. 5:50:25 "Spoiled brat" for not marrying a stuck-up self-righteous asshole who could easily have become an abusive or unfaithful husband? Wow... Those workers need to take a good look in the mirror.

8:59 I remembered that I also needed a Japanese map although it was for the Ice Palace in Persona 1's Snow Queen Quest since that place is probably one of the worst maze dungeons out there. 14:34 The most popular origin story for Ganesha's elephant head was that Parvati had Ganesha on guard duty to make sure no one would come to see her bathe but when Shiva came and wasn't allowed to get past, Shiva would fight Ganesha and sever his head and Parvati was distraught by this so to help Ganesha come back, they needed to find a new head and what they found was an elephant head. Ganesha is probably one of my favourite Hindu deities since I do worship Him but I do admire Him as the remover of obstacles as well as the fact He really likes Indian sweets like Laddus. 19:34 I am currently playing Gran Turismo 4 and it has something called the license tests to help teach you driving techniques but getting all gold requires lots of patience and precision like these field hunts. I think one test took me more than 3 hours to gold. 30:55 Persona 1 also has a pitfall maze in the form of the Kama Palace which can be painful to explore without a map and guide and because of story reasons, you have to go through there twice.

0:14 Karma Temple B Welcome to Pain! 4:42 Hero Side and Dark Side 8:23 Wall Portals? 8:46 Ah yes that line where the first part of it was recycled for every team despite it only really working for Sonic and Chaotix 9:39 Wait I just realized Whose in here to transform into the demons? Do some of the guards have brands, are these remnants of other tribes out for revenge, or creations of Sera to try and stop us 10:59 "I just realized Heat didn't end up getting to Wikipedia" and "Have we even unlocked Wikipedia yet" -BigKlingy No Context 14:33 I know back when Dragon Ball Super came out, people speculated on of the Gods of Destruction, Rumsshi was based on Ganesha, and some were not happy about that 16:10 Huh, clever strategy 19:18 FRENZY! 23:05 Heat shall devour more than Serph! 27:43 Well considering these two are the inverses of each other, wouldn't they start fighting each other? 30:35 Maybe its a sample sound

Hearing klingy swear shocked me more than when i heard my mom cuss for the first time

19:50 I've been loving the series of this so far, and have been watching you since 2016, this is the first time I think I've ever heard you curse in a video 😂

30:22 It is indeed the camel noise, taken from stock sound library, which Doom also used~ Decino has a good video about where the sound clip came from, titled The Origins of Doom's Sound Effects~

"Have we even unlocked Wikipedia yet?" -BigKlingy, 2024

12:13 So I assume that the measurements being in feet here is because this game was localised with Americans in mind, Since the maps you show from a Japanese guide have the meters right where the name of the floor should be. Even though most other countries, including the other ones that speak English use the Metric system. 14:37 Also a Shadow I shook down for max money in Persona 5 Royal, Since they would give over 20000 every time you ask for money, which the Sun Confidant allows you to do multiple times, they had a lot of HP you I could knock them down twice an average to get more money, So you could say that they where like a Ganesha Bank 16:29 It would be cool if a bit dickish if the amount of Cells you well sell would affect the strength of the games mini-bosses, since their boss has more information on how you fight she could prepare them with countermeasures. 24:18 It’s weird to me to see a single target Almighty magic attack in general, but especially magical ad the only one I know, Friekugal is physical based. Otherwise it’s an element that is over wise multi target magic And in general, it’s weird for me to use Almighty in a lot of games since I just don’t like using it, it tends to be very expensive compared to regular magic, tends to have no Boost and Amp skills to increase its damage So I find that I’m dealing more damage with Surt and Norn against most enemies in versions of Persona 3 than with Almighty, while not being part of the One More/Press Turn system since I cannot hit a weakness, hence unless the enemy has no weaknesses/has a boatload of resistances I feel I get more jist hitting a weakness. And with most fights, you can find a magic element that isn’t Almighty that works well to damage them even if you do not a weakness. Not to say I cannot find use in them, Fires of Sinai is a good burst damage option for example but I don’t tend to build a team with one in mind. Something I find with Physical Almighty is that I feel it has more advantages over its main counterpart, unless we have separate Boost and Amp skills for both, which we don’t always have, the fact that Physical Almighty cannot be blocked while still having the possibility to critical gives it a strong advantage that magical Almighty doesn’t always have. 24:25 Single target magic in Persona, while not being used with the same advantage of avoiding losing press turns is still something I recommend you shouldn’t get rid off and become annoyed at seeing people get rid off, not only do you have no chance of hitting an immunity but it is also more cost effective, especially when it comes to bosses and single enemies when your spending more SP/MP/EP for no additional bonus, even when the other enemies don’t absorb/immune to it. While hitting a Null, Repel or Absorb doesn’t have the same issues as it would in a press turn game, and in the late game the issue becomes less apparent, but even then it hurts your ability to take down any enemy that absorbs that element.

0:14 Pain? What, is he going to hit us with an Almighty Push or something? 1:33 Wow, that must have been the weakest, most pathetic Temple Guard ever! 2:44 Looking it up... it's roughly equal to 120.1 m, so yeah, we're pretty high up! 4:56 Damn you, Girimehkala! 6:10 Huh, that's interesting. 8:45 Lovely... 11:46 I do like how the music slow builds and adds new instruments as you get higher, I had an idea for something similar for this RPG I want to make someday. 12:08 Which is roughly equal to 579.7 m. For reference, the CN Tower, the 3rd tallest tower in the world, is only 553.3 m. 16:08 In other words, we REALLY shouldn't be selling the cells, but goddamn it, we need the macca, so we do it anyway! 19:33 You spoke too soon, it seems. 19:51 Extremely rare footage of uncensored BigKlingy swearing. 22:09 F*cking finally! 23:15 And yet, you kept in a few uncensored F-bombs. 31:26 ...What the f*ck am I looking at? 35:59 Oh, that is evil, I love it! 36:46 Ooh, the drums have kicked in, nice! 37:17 For reference, the Tokyo Skytree, the tallest tower in the world, is only 2080 ft. We have climbed the height of almost two Skytrees, which is insane!

i didn't have that much trouble with the karma temple warp mazes. it's probably one of the more bearable warp puzzles in megami tensei imo. because the warps are almost always gonna send you to an adjacent hallway, it's a lot easier to guess where you'll end up regardless if you end up in the right or wrong place. it's actually kinda surveyable unlike most warp puzzles. if there are no adjacent hallways, it's pretty obviously a pitfall. maybe soul hackers 2's soul matrix just made me more tolerant of this dungeon cuz while the soul matrix is more bland design-wise, it leans way heavier into warp mazes. it's to the point where i just save before going into a warp and seeing if it's takes me back to the beginning or not.

In one series, it's Fire. In another it's Physical. On both, it makes sense for Heat to get Ragnarok. 0:27 And also we've firmly reached the point where enemies go "Good strategy, unfortunately, physical Almighty" 1:06 Not even the vendor from The Messanger surpasses him? Hm, i'd say there's some tough competition there. 2:11 No, not the Titania (that marks twice the random encounters do a funnier) 2:36 Lesse, we went from 132 feet to 394 feet. That means we rose 262 feet ooor... almost 80 meters. To be at 120 meters above sea level. Which fun fact, is apparently the height limit of a drone. 3:52 We entered from the exit, didn't we. 6:35 Well, as conventional as a pitfall can be here... 7:17 We only need Isis here and we have the whole Brutes base miniboss gang. 10:37 Ty Bubbletea for letting us see the superboss 11:25 Yes Heat we know. 11:34 Seth's ride of Pain comes later... *Much* later. 12:07 Since i already have the converter open... That would be 579.72 meters. 12:19 Which means Serph just fell down around 20 meters. No fall damage, am i right? 19:33 Okay editing Klingy, let's enjoy the chaos together. 19:50 These places are too good at making Klingy swear... We didn't even get censor bleeps this time. 23:03 At least we got rewarded with good rng. 23:55 Not really a "but" this time. Still ignores resistances. It's only Strength based (thank goodness for Heat) and *i think* it's powered by Power Charge. 25:19 And you'll know it very well from the superboss! 26:51 Or as a certain challenge runner calls it... Last Word Gaming! 22:28 Oh dear not again. 34:40 No reducing to 0 HP from a skill here, only Door-kun gets that privilege... and Door-chan too. 36:16 Or try to before getting interrupted by a random encounter (make that 3 i guess) 36:48 Apart from being hoisted a whole 700 meters upwards by the middle brother elevator and now being at 1249 meters above sea level...

31:24 Sector E looks like a nightmare and makes EO3's 24th floor in the post game look tame.

Eridanus is definitely tough to get through, but the satisfaction after you do is insane. Really, most of the SJ dungeons aren't *that* bad, its mostly just long corridors. The snappy controls and quick combat help a lot in getting through them fast. The most ridiculous dungeons I've gone through is either YHVH's dimension in SMT4 Apocalypse (just kinda long and boring with spongey enemies) or the final one in that Touhou fangame that is basically one step removed from classic SMT. I recommend the vid Marsh made earlier this year for that one unless you wanna play it on your own.

This game is going faster than i thought. Even if it's part of a duology this is rather quick. Man once you get the top tier mantras you're op. I can see why you're excited for that upcoming JRPG. Oh sweet lucifer. That mitama fight was on Estelle fishing levels of frustration

For backtrack from the temple to vendor to grind.. (Cells huh.. Good for more Maccas.) In this temple, 394ft.. Well that's way up.. Yak?.. Rak. Yep. Edit. Lol. 377ft?.. Dead end.. ??.. Sera? ..

ooh this reminds me of the azalea town gym in heart gold, i actually think thats underrated gym, really fun (albeit simple) gym puzzle

Now heat can use End of he World In the psp port of persona 1, theres an additional dungeon, the alaya ruins, where in one floor, you have to guess the right trap to fall down or go up again. And yes, the encounters are on. And then theres of course whatever the final dungeon in the snow queen quest is

19:53 That, my friend, is referred to as a “Cluster F Bomb”

Sometime in the past: Rage quits because of the puzzle in the dungeon. 2024: Almost rage quits because of a field hunt.

19:54 that's like the first time I ever heard you swear.

I’m doing a Rex character analysis. One of things I feel that people don’t get about Rex is that, what made him the true driver the Aegis was his ability to give Pyra and Mythra what they needed in their lives: hope. My main argument for Rex as a main character is that Rex is Hope to everyone around him. Not just Pyra and Mythra. To me, that was the purpose behind the start of Chapter 7. 19:50 Cluster F bomb much?

20:55. Once again, BK getting pressed about a Field Hunt. 23:14. Just curious, how much swearing are we talking about. Like censor bleeps in the double digits?

random thing but i been back to playing Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 of leveling my other characters up and with of playing my Female Majin; and i love how many of the characters have different comments based on your Created Character's Race and i love the confusion most characters who never interact with a Majin before

"Forget Ragnarok, I'M your destruction!" - Heat, probably. 4:35 Elephant Bros! And once again, a Girimehkala encounter is a near-death experience, he's no joke in this game. That Field Hunt sure seemed like... something, that's for sure. No idea how they expected to figure out the right route without trial and error or a guide. 31:24 That looks like the world's most absurd crossword puzzle.

All this pain reminds me of something......i think i saw a vision of almighty pain after a long time has passes
