Persona 5 OST - Bad End/Mementos Depths Theme

[@aloneinthelight7754]

That depressing last palace theme when you got depressed because the game is ending

[@orangeplayzz9162]

Thiago Martins so true

[@xikpart]

The whole palace was depressing as fuck This theme is awesome

[@foxmcfog7809]

The palace is so boring but I didn't want it to end haha

Maybe it’s like the little bit of fog of lies were violently ripped away. The realization of one’s true nature, and the truth helps you understand him better.

@@inktouhou from what weve seen so far it seems that in p5 royal akechi survives and becomes a permanent party member (using loki and his true outfit)

[@moonraven6145]

I got the bad ending simply cause I thought the game was tricking me with an obvious choice like "you didn't sell your friends out, so now their souls belong to me cause you are denying their involvement!" or something like that.. turns out I was overthinking things lol

[@Ligmaarse]

Raging Raving I got on the path to the true ending, how do you get a bad ending?

[@moonraven6145]

it's when Sae asks you do you know you accomplices, if you say yes she leaves to file the report too early so the Killer comes in before you give her the phone and he shoots you in the head, there's also another "bad" ending near the end of the game that relied on a choice from the main villain.

[@onezerozeroonethree2369]

Me too

[@Roshiyoshiiii657]

SNITCH

[@dynl]

I got the bad ending twice

[@mushymcmushington7176]

I sold my friends out the first time, just to see if I COULD, and I was not disappointed. gg Atlus, haven't had to cover my mouth out of surprise because of a twist since Silent Hill 2.

[@LICOnlineteach]

I never missed a deadline... that is why I am very clueless of joker's brain being blasted out.

[@keava]

Nai Zurc if you're still playing the game, don't tread on those grounds

[@EdoloChannel]

I thought I could trust Sae, so maybe she'd pull some tricks or something. Instead, I get the bad ending. Oh well

[@LeiChaobruh]

Same I thought I was being riggamaroled

[@LeRoiEnJaune]

Heheh. I sold my friends out because they weren't useful anymore. A real thief oughtta be a realist, and the reality is the "phantom thieves" shtick has run its course. It was fun while it lasted, but they were nothing but small fry and hangers-on. Now, brainwashing people en masse, that's real power. I'll take that over a posse of adolescents any day.

[@LiunUK]

this music gives me a "headache"

[@deus-x_851]

Underrated comment.

[@tenderquirkydragon8643]

Same here, I feel a lot of "pain" in my forehead.

[@inktouhou]

Yeah almost like if "something" just went through your head

[@CYB3Redux]

*sigh* why dont you use your "brain"

[@mrscake991]

I have honestly never felt so shocked, disappointed and afraid towards a video game character - no, ANYONE in my life. Hearing this music after the Bad End was so disheartening, too. Glad I did it though. I still love Akechi though. This game has so many layers, man... like pancakes.

[@krsynx]

[@bestintheworld0624]

emily storey It's easily the best JRPG since FF9, best Persona game imo.

[@EdoloChannel]

I was speechless

[@mew9428]

Excuse me but... I thought I heard something about delicious pancakes...

[@lucascostabeyeler6852]

I hate Akechi just because he is a Poor's man Adachi.

[@austinroach95]

I was actually impressed that this game managed to disturb me with this level. It gave me the impression that I was actually in hell (and I don't get disturbed easily.) The people living in cages while veins sucked blood out of their heads, while living without free will and indulging in laziness as the world around them fell apart to a malevolent god. Not because they were forced, but simply because they thought they wanted too. Now that's evil.

[@twewymuncher]

the "good" ending disturbed me so badly; its pitiful knowing that in reality THAT is how Japanese people think; they think politicians are the uttermost correct and they have nothing to worry about. this theme really hits me hard and im so uncomfortable lmao

[@twewymuncher]

and that sad reality is that its pretty accurate to japan nowadays; they believe politicians are the uttermost good and they don't need to worry; whatever they do is the best... thats the biggest message this game has, and its biggest theme.

[@treeninja510fire9]

Not a malevolent god, but satan himself rules this world so whilst we sit and indulge in laziness , the world becomes more and more corrupt.. accept god and jesus into your life for the TRUTH sets you free! Free from the hell prison we belong to with id numbers and watchlists.

[@treeninja510fire9]

@Celly Milton I've played this and p5royal its pretty obvious to see that the deeper meaning implies it is satan not Jesus the Christ. If you only look surface deep on these things you miss quite a lot. I suggest you replay the game actually read the dialogue and study the shin Magami tensei series history. Come back once you have re evaluated your opinion.

[@treeninja510fire9]

@Celly Milton Furthermore if you have not studied such topics then you are speaking from a lack of knowledge on the topic. So please if there is nothing else then stop now.

[@sakurasnow1301]

[@hanazura9470]

No Future I realised that after I placed the comment

[@memestealer6348]

"Freedom and Security" Now that reminds me a lot of when Palpatine give his speech to create the Empire at the end of ROTS. eerie

[@jdg1251]

freedom and peace according to spotify

[@mew9428]

On my first playthrough, I didn't sell out my friends. I went straight for the true ending. Once I got to this dungeon I got hit with the major feels, the fact that everyone is going to the heart of the world's distortion and erasing the Metaverse really got to me.

[@Ratchet140896]

One of my favourite parts of the game was discovering that there are actually two bad endings. Selling out your friends and taking THAT deal. Good stuff.

MiniJoda My bad. I'm still stuck on Yaldabaoth battle, so I wouldn't know there are even moar chances of getting bad end.

[@joshuastreat8556]

Eress The other bad ending is making the deal with fake Igor, which is before Yaldabaoth. I'm in the same boat since I sold out my friends too in the interrogation room.

[@sillygoose6.6]

dunno if anyone's gonna read this... but When I first played through P5 I got the good ending. But then on YT I saw a Video named "all endings". Watching it, realizing there is a bad ending and REALIZING the bad ending, gave me shivers when I saw the credits and this theme playing! Let alone the fact that in the end of the credits it says "END" in red. Just that creeped me out. Implying that Thou missed something. Seeing Joker betraying his friends, seeing his evil side shattered my heart. I was convinced I couldn't sleep that night and if I did I wouldve had nightmares. Everytime I picture this ending plus hearing this theme, a cold shudder runs through my body..

The depths of mementos, if not more depressing, i think is on par with the yomotsu hirasaka. The final boss of p5 and 4 are essentially the same thing. (Srry for any spoilers) but the p5 final boss is a god that kinda decides the fate of humanity for them, and thats the main point of the ame no sagiri and izanami fights
