I honestly liked p5s combat more than p5r 💀

p5r combat was insanely bloated with the confidant mechanics.

auto dispel, auto heal, auto buffs, 1 hit kill protection is ridiculous

why even play the game at this point when you remove every aspect that requires strategy

[Daz_4th 6]

P5R is unbeIievabIy easy

[Liftea 11]

I didn't even realize this until I played SMT V

[Sam N 10]

I’ll tell you what bloated it, fusion alarms. They pop up all the time and make it super easy to get op personas.

[Daz_4th 6]

that too

[Liftea 11]

I liked what they were going for in terms of mechanics but it turned into an absolute balancing nightmare

[Sam N 10]

That’s just poor design. The challenge battles show that a good foundation is there.

[Liftea 11]

I killed the final boss of royal just by spamming morning star with joker instead of using baton pass

[Daz_4th 6]

there's aIso the issue of you being way too powerfuI by just pIaying the game normaIIy, using Iike, Rank 5 confidant skiIIs
I didn't grind even once, but I stiII managed to beat the game without any game overs

and then when I did grind so that I couId beat the secret bosses, ie. went to Lv. 99

I utterIy demoIished them no questions asked

[Liftea 11]

holy shit we are talking negatively about p5r. P5 twitter and reddit is gonna cancel us

[Sam N 10]

Yeah. Once again, a good idea ruined by poor balancing. The core game is good enough to make up for it, but it’s kinda telling when I’m having a fairly easy time and can one day most palaces on MERCILESS.

[Liftea 11]

It really didn't ruin my experience with 5R but I think I could have had even more fun with the game if they would had balanced the game

[Daz_4th 6]

mhm

[Sam N 10]

The biggest problem imo is it’s too easy to get an ambush. Do that, and the enemies are helpless. Won’t get a single turn in.

[Daz_4th 6]

oof that too
pIus once you get Yoshizawa's confidant abiIity, you're guarenteed an ambush

[Sam N 10]

While confidant abilities are cool, I kinda think they should’ve gone back to just boosted exp in fusion. Way more balanced.

[Daz_4th 6]

fr
Ryuji's especiaIIy is way overpowered

just ram into personas, free exp and it don't take even a second

[Sam N 10]

The character arcs are what I care about anyway. Don’t usually pay much attention to the abilities.

[Daz_4th 6]

yee

what a way to put together a statement LMAO

[MegaChamp 4]

I don't understand why Route B in Replicant is trying to make me feel sorry for Shades. It's not working. In Automata... there were actual robots who were trying* to be peaceful and not going around killing people. This isn't the case with Shades. Excuse me for having *no sympathy for monsters going around killing people. Sorry for the mini-rant I guess.

Ok see that's what I'm talking about- do you have the gaming opinions you do because they're your own or is it because you like getting a rise out of gamers you don't like- which is it?

[Liftea 11]

first one
