That JRPG Mass Effect offers 4 party member costumes for 2 dollars.What sort of costume dlc pricing from another game offers more value?

Do the BGMs automatically play? Or can you equip the outfits without the music changing? I feel I'll enjoy the P5 soundtrack too much to change the music.
I think I'll save my money for the DLC and put it away somewhere to buy the inevitable rerelease of P5 in a few years.
Those prices are early 90s anime VHS set bad
I hate large cosmetic DLC schedules so fucking much.
All of the good outfits don't even release until at least April 25th or later. I'll be done with the game by then.
It makes sense why you'd get there from fighting games, I've totally dodged non-character DLC for that reason.Musou sounds like great value. I'm used to paying 3-5 bucks for individual costumes in fighters and RPGs, so this honestly feels about the norm to me. Even cheap!
Now I know why everyone keeps playing Musou!
Each set is a legacy Persona and a "Phantom Thieves" style recoloring/redesign Persona.

Wait, so those Persona Picaro sets are actual, exclusive Persona you can purchase? I wonder how strong they are...

At least for the Izanagi and Orpheus set, not particularly. The work it works is that once you have the set, you can summon them from the compendium for free the first time (with base skills) or, once your level is high enough, you can fuse them normally. They start at a base level of something like 20-28, so they're not remarkable at all. More worthwhile for the skills they have, which are fairly strong ones you can get in the early game.
Last gen for fighters, the norm felt like small costume bundles with the average $/costume being around or less than one dollar. $1 on average feels like a good rule of thumb to me. Much higher than that starts to feel exploitative, particularly launch costumes, and when compared to the common price of $5 for a fighting game character which is a hugely important piece of content. It seems to me that only very recently have fighter DLC costumes started hitting $3-4.
I think publishers are using the "it's only cosmetic" angle in fighters, and mobas/rpgs genenerally having much higher pricing to partially justify the price jumps this gen. Granted the business models and support length have changed, but I still stick to the $1 per costume average to help gauge value. It's why I have yet to buy a SFV costume.
The game itself will also be included in that eventual PSN sale.The dlc's will likely all be included in a eventual psn sale
They are tied to the main protagonist & what he's wearing, so if you want Mass Destruction, YOU have to wear the P3 outfit, but everyone else is free to wear whatever they wantI don't know if this was answered but does the music change if you don't want the costumes on or are they linked and must be worn for the music?
So to summarize:
- We don't get costumes in game anymore unlike the awesome selection in P4G
- No free costume DLC that they got in Japan (Catherine, Christmas ones, etc...) beside the stupid swimsuit one
- SE is quite a bit worse then the one in Japan as well with no free costumes/summons and crappier song CD
- 7 months delay from Japan and we still get DLC on delay...
- Oh yeah, and it's $7 per costume set
I am starting to think I should just grab the regular edition from BestBuy/Amazon (or steelbook one I guess) instead of SE and spend $14 on couple costume sets since there is no way I am going to keep using same default costumes for 80 - 100 hour game.
Atlus just finds way la to piss off its fans in the West, don't they...

Aww manThey are tied to the main protagonist & what he's wearing, so if you want Mass Destruction, YOU have to wear the P3 outfit, but everyone else is free to wear whatever they want
Yeap, it's a BS move by Atlus and Sega. However they know that people are still going to get the game and most likely quite a few will buy the costumes since this is a long RPG and having just one or two outfits for 80 - 100 hours would be quite boring. So basically they don't care.I knew there was a reason why I thought they'd be free!
