Can You Beat Persona 3 While Only Using Makoto Yuki?

[@MagicMarcos]

4/20/2021 (228 Views): Just gonna write this now in case this video blows up like crazy. Thank you all so much for the support of this video. This was my biggest project (at the time of this writing) and I'm glad you all liked it. I do plan to do more of these in the future, but just know you'll have to wait a while as I also need a break from doing these kinds of videos. I plan to do my next Persona challenge video sometime in the fall of 2021, so it'll be a while. That's pretty much all I have to say for now. Again thank you so much for the support of this video, it means a lot! 5/8/2021: After rewatching this video myself, I should probably note that any mistakes made in this video + the low tone were just me being tired from making this video. 5/31/2021 (1,020 Views): WOAH 1K VIEWS. Haven't had this many in a while. Just want to remind you I'm mainly doing smash bros content and haven't started the next Persona challenge video as of now. 6/15/2021 (1,680 Views): Wow y'all are crazy! While you're here, I should probably let you know that literally the day after I uploaded this video, I defeated Shadow Alice from P5S with only Makoto Niijima: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2eTeYKaYqxqsLs 6/19/2021 (1,826 Views): GOOD NEWS EVERYONE! Persona 4 Golden while only using Yu Narukami is currently in the works! 7/17/2021 (3,176 Views): I have high hopes for this video now. 8/10/2021: Ok honestly, how the frick has no one even pointed this out yet. You know the heart items I got at 22:31 and 23:31, I literally could've had those items for the Hierophant and Lovers shadows and the fights would've been 100 times easier, I'm actually so stupid (and yes I said Narcissus wrong). 8/11/2021: IT’S FINALLY HERE: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXO0hn-rfLWfhdU 3/5/2022 (66K Views): Thank You Everyone! 3/5/2023 (111K Views): Y’all are the best

[@model-ss7386]

For the Love Hotel shadow: Dont you get access to the antique shop by this point? With Narcissus's Heart Item and a Fear resistance weapon (fuse a Devil persona into a weapon), you can fight the two bosses pretty consistently I think

Finally someone called it out!!!!

For the 3 horse dudes u could have used the fusion spell that requires succubus and incubus because then they attack eachother, the same for the gigas,dancers

[@MagicMarcos]

I never really thought of using other fusion spells besides armageddon. Now I felt like my life could've been a lot easier if I knew 😓

Good job! I've been exhausted of Tartarus and this game itself even with teammates but you did really great job.

24:40 The best thing about it is that you can actually kill Strength and then Fortune in one move if you have Ghastly Wail.

“Good job!” Fuuka says after you use the actual Helel and Satan to completely demolish the enemies in one fell swoop

If I had a nickel for every time an important early story event happened on 4/20 in a Persona game, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

[@Flutterdark_]

41:38 and the rest of this could be skipped by starting tanaka in the evening of january 31. (known as nyx skip) no really. its a thing. its hilarious af just skipping the final boss but it works. tho that would be boring for a challenge run

[@BAIGAMING]

Great video, I saw your pinned comment, I'm going to watch your Persona 4 one soon. I'm hoping you hit 1K subs soon, you have great content and excellent commentary.

[@dracodancer3262]

You like pain don't you? 😭 I struggled even with a party. Good run!

[@bubbletea_]

You could’ve saved yourself some time by using Vitality Rings and a fusion weapon using Legion to increase your HP tremendously. You can skip out on a lot of grinding since you’ll be able to tank a lot of hits. Weapon fusion opens a lot of doors. Might be helpful if you do another challenge run of this game.

Against the early midbosses, moves like Pulinpa are very powerful if you land it.

[@krsnadasafernandez7105]

God I didn't remember that Down enemies in P3 take a whole turn to get up, so they don't attack until their next turn

[@DigitalWebOwner]

Was my favorite way to play as some sort of control freak, soloing and always prepared. P3P was a letdown in this and many other regards.
