Yeah, Hollow Forest is deceptively easy. They make it out to be harder than it is.
Just make sure you don't use up the elemental break items they hand out to you. They're really useful for the boss.

Sure, I'm not saying it was uninteresting, but I preferred the lessons in P4G because they were more related to each other and coherent.
I'm guessing the preceding conversation was about a social link not going the way the person wanted and the punchline they said became this title.
That new thread smell!
I wish I had been awake to say goodbye to OT3.
Smedwicks got denied by Rise.

You picked this over Emancipation Anticipation?
It looks that way!
It's still open, so go wild!
EDIT: Don't actually go wild, or the mods might get mad.
I actually PM'd a mod to request a change. As hilarious as it is, it's probably not a great title.

It really isn't, we should avoid being that insular. (I also don't get the joke, so...)
Any interest in seeing me suffer through Revelations: Persona once I finish dabbling with Lunar?

It was a reference to smedwicks and not getting the Christmas Day present from his waifu.
Saw Smed's original post, but the joke kind of sailed over my head at first as well.
Edit: Yea only kind of understood it a bit better after Daimaou posted up some links a bit earlier.
Dantis doesn't actually come into IRC all that often either. The quote is actually from a post in the last thread, not IRC.
I took those down, felt too much like ridicule as opposed to just friendly ribbing.

Oh man I missed it
oh well happy threadbreaking everyone!

I agree about the pacing, especially around the middle.
I wish I hadn't listened to the full soundtrack before finishing the game. "Battle for Everyone's Souls", "Burn my Dread" and "Memories of You", what a way to end a game!
Without spoiling, do SLinks in Persona 4 have any impact (story/characters wise) or are they self contained like in Persona 3?

You actually used this title... I legit didn't think you would.

lol at the one standing randomly on the desk
This was what I was legitimately expecting, not just a reference to how smed flubbed up christmas by prioritizing a fish over RiseYou picked this over Emancipation Anticipation?
lol
Self-contained in the original game, but a few impact the story in Persona 4 Golden.

Personaaaaa let's go away
PS1 version via PS3. I really need to get some fusing going.
PS1 version via PS3. I really need to get some fusing going.
Reaching certain ranks with your party members will help them to obtain battle abilities e.g unique critical hit, ability to tank a fatal blow for you etc. Reaching max level will allow their Personas to evolve and the Personas can reach a third stage if you finish some event in January.
Of course, for the the rest of the social links, there's some endgame stuff that will only appear if you reached their maxed levels.
Ah, so better than Persona 3. I can't wait to start this game! The fact that you have to max out the social links to get better personas for your team members kind of worries me though. I couldn't even max out Fuuka and Aigis in time in Persona 3.
I'm listening to Battle for Everyone's Souls (http://youtu.be/2kBqP06eDRY) again, can't think of any better boss battle themes.
Don't worry about it too much, it's not that significant of a boost, and a lot of them come with ranks.

Think of it this way Smed; The rest of GAF actually has to go into this thread before they can understand the context, and with a title like that there's only going to be so many takers.

Posting the second and last pastebin of P4A2 win quotes. I recommend sticking away due to possible spoilers if you're still playing P3/P4.
Awesome. The translations seem pretty good this time, as well.
And yeah, seems that that makes it pretty clear that
Sho is another product of the Kirijo group, just like with Labrys. Probably explains his attachment to Aigis and Labrys.
This one's interesting:
Wonder if it means
they don't share the same physical body.

It'll pique tons of interests, I'm sure of it.

It may just be a fluff quote, but I'm not sure. They're never seen together in the arcade story, at least. I think the 'attachment to Aigis and Labrys' part comes from the fact the rest of his win quotes are awful puns that don't carry over well to English, so the one against Aigis sticks out.

I don't think it necessarily means he's a robot , you gotta remember that Strega was "a product of the Kirijo group" as well.
Er, I didn't say that. In fact,
I heavily doubt that he's an anti-Shadow weapon. That's why I said "product of the Kirijo group."
Yeah, some parts could be translation error or things not coming through in English, but saying "don't come out on your own accord" sounds pretty blatant. It could just be a joke quote like with other mirror matches, though, but we've never seen both of them together so it's hard to know one way or the other.
That quote about tearing Aigis inside out after mentioning the Plume of Dusk also sounds a bit weird, but it was written in some story synopses that Sho wants to "save" Aigis in particular and he also talks to Labrys, in her arcade mode, about how he had chosen her, being the culprit in P4A, because he and her "are the same" when he says:

Woops, didnt realize this was made already and posted in the other thread >.>
Decided to go after the Platinum for P4G as its my new favorite game of all time, and am currently sitting here farming status ailment lines for the Hardcore Risette Fan trophy.

Haha I like how there's a Gold Hand in this, your power leveling bro.
New thread! Yosuke is an idiot and Marie probably smells really bad!
Aw yeah, new thread time!
Here's the wall of shame from OT3:
Aw yeah third place.
Also, that OT title. Rip smed.
My posting count went down significantly in the last OT. Oh well. That won't happen this time!
Random musing, but I wonder if he's a biological android/homunculus.

:lol @ the original devil summoner being the best selling Atlus game (that we know of) despite being a shit game. P5 needs to do numbers.
I would be surprised if it doesn't given how much they've grown the brand since P4. It's gotta be Atlus' biggest series, yeah?
Also:
In all seriousness we probably shouldn't do community insider jokes next time.
I'm confident that P5 will be at least number 2. Atlus seems to be serious about moving up in the industry with it, especially under the banner of their new blue overlords.
