Persona 5

Even if he can be saved it may simply be his soul, or maybe he'll have to live as a non-human entity, or something else entirely.

Frankly I'm fine with them just hurrying it up. Instead of just dropping hints on characters working on it (like Elizabeth), let's just do the big mission and save the savior. Just because he chose to sacrifice himself, doesn't mean everyone else can't choose to find a way to save him from that eternal responsibility.

Attempting to save the P3 protagonist is fine. It makes literary sense, because there are characters attached to him so of course they would want to save him.

Actually succeeding does not. The point is that he died as a martyr so that his friends could have the chance to live on, and so that they would not have to deal with Nyx again. There is also the whole Jesus symbolism.
Even if they could magically find a way to get him out of there, it does not explain how they can prevent another handful of suicidal people from calling Nyx again, even by accident. Even in Persona 5 there are several characters who are suicidal at some point, and this is certainly well after P3. If Makoto/Minato wasn't there, what's stopping Nyx from answering their call again? And what about when P6 rolls around, and there is another conflict where people fall into despair? And then P7, P8, P9, and P10 after that? Do you think the world is magically a happy place after the events of P5 and that no more problems will arise?

Uh, good luck getting Protag cards.

Also, just finished the game, and man, the hype lives up to its name.

And do I HAVE to NG+ this game so many times just to get ALL the chocolate?

EDIT:

Spoiler for major plot:

It's funny how "someone called it".

Wish I can go, but I can't call the shots in my house.

Too biased to say Sae, if she was a choice.

I'm a bit more partial to the other Niijima.

Already in November in my NG+, and oh my god.

Spoiler for NG+ twin warden spoiler:

Fighting the twins for the first time (on hard) made me drop my jaw with Rivers in the Desert playing in the background and having dem loli's doing baton passes in the fight and coup de grace my team with an All out attack near the end when i ran out of time.

I thought it would be a walk over at level 87 (though i only had Ishtar and Raphael) after I used the flu season farming trick on Reaper, guess it's onto the drawing board to build the ultimate Persona.

Also still waiting for the listen to all the navigator lines trophy to pop

[Chaos2Frozen]

Navigation trophy is the worst, only because you have no control over it and no way to track it. I'll flip if I can't get it in NG+ again.

In terms of romance options, I went with Hifumi first and now Haru second.

Not really a fan of adult romance but if I had to pick it'll be Tae or Chihiya... Probably Tae... you shouldn't date your teacher :x


Edit:

"Come! Steal it if you can!"

Somehow I just managed to get that trophy on my first playthrough. Somehow that just managed to happen. And yet through multiple replays I still haven't gotten that trophy for Persona 4: Golden...

One thing I'll give P5 is that I don't feel like the game is trying to guilt me to death for not picking up romances. Outside of Haru and Futaba. Ann was a tier below that in the guilting, but she did a nice job of leaving with dignity.

First time went with Makoto. Still deciding who I'll go with for the second playthrough. In terms of the adult romances, I'd probably go with Tae. Had a pretty solid story and was pretty likable overall. I do think the teacher had a good character arc, but I'd feel a bit awkward going with that one. Seems kind of contrary to her arc to have her get into a romantic relationship with a student.

[Dextro]

I actually got the navigation trophys on my first playthrough for Golden and Persona 5. I think my only tip is to try and hit those weaknesses (and fail while doing it) as much as you can.

[Wandering Soul]

I also got it on my first playthrough. My only real piece of advice is to switch up your team and make sure to try to hit those weaknesses.

[Chaos2Frozen]

I have no problems hitting weak points and switching out parties, I just think I don't get hit/knockdown/ailements enough lol.

It's especially difficult in NG+ without intentionally trying to drag out fights and making bad moves.

Edit: I even intentionally hit the 6th palace boss to get a low health dialogue for multiple characters lol

[Yu Ominae]

Been looking around the net lately and I'm starting to see R18 doujins of the Protag getting together with Sae.

Also awesome music:

Just beat the final boss.

Spoiler for End Game Spoilers:

You know, this is the third time that an evil god has tried to screw over the world in like ten years. You'd think at this point Igor would just have all the other Persona-users on tap to deal with it.

Spoiler for Shiho and Ann Pic:
