Yes, I'm playing Persona 3 Reload. Somewhere in the realm of April and will be doing a really fun, uncapped subathon event for the game. I will be posting about it later for more details on that, but it's happening after I finish playing FF7 Rebirth and Unicorn Overlord!
29:46 don’t know if it gets mentioned in stream, but the reason the clock is stuck at 6(or 18:00) is because that was the time of her injury when he couldn’t save her. Since he was able to save her time began to move forward as he could move on.
5:00 - Fun fact, that’s the second one-person All-Out Attack in franchise history. The first was Joker himself in the opening cutscene of Q2. Though if we stretch the definition of “one” person, then Lavenza in Royal would be the actual second.
29:48 The reason why the Third Kingdom is stuck at twilight is because Nakabachi pushed Eri onto the tracks at exactly 6:00 pm. That moment traumatised Toshiro and he was unable to move on... until now. Accepting his past meant that he could start moving on, hence the clock starting to tick. Tactica isn't Joker's story, it's Toshiro's. That's why he's a permanent party member once he awakened his Persona.
Ernesto Che Guevara was definitely not on my bingo card of what his rebel persona will be in this game especially a real life historical figure who died relatively recently in the last 100 years
Also while looking up salmael the way uts spelled doesn't bring up anything in religion/mythology (or really anything in general besides this game) samael which is spelled/sound similar is said to be another name of the demiurge in gnostism
0:55 - This reminds me of a Comics Anthology where the Phantom Thieves started hanging out after Joker left and Haru was working at Leblanc because Joker suggested she take up a job for practical experience in her… was it Rank 9 or Rank 10? Anyways, Haru working under Sojiro in her pursuit of running her own small time cafe and putting up with Futaba has always been a fun mental image, so the framing here just tickles my fancy.
My art school experience just triggered when I heard Guernica or Guernica the painting that Picasso made out of his disgust at what happened in the city of Geneva. He painted it for the Geneva Convention or maybe around the time it was being made.
28:27 - To be fair, literally every Shadow Self but Shido’s has a thematic gimmick outfit. Kamoshida wears a king cape and speedo, Madarame is decked out in ornate gold and white face makeup, Kaneshiro is a white-suited banker with purple skin, Futaba dusted off an Egyptian princess cosplay, Okumura has green skin decked in sci-fi gear that looks like Benny the Spaceman tried to cosplay Darth Vader, and Sae is covered in an elaborate tattoo her real self would never dream of getting. Shadow Toshiro looking like normal ass Toshiro the whole time is quite the shock by comparison.
Honestly it reminds me of persona 4, but he is split. Hes still unwilling to accept himself, but is willing to stand up against others… which is why he gets a mask to tear off, but not a phantom thief suit
5:32 - I really appreciate Crystaahhl for moments like this - correctly predicts the next plot beat AND LAUGHS about it! Still enjoying the ride! I've watched other streamers who correctly guess things and get MAD that the game was so predictable?? Instead of being PROUD they are so well-versed in the genre that they CAN predict the next thing. So, thank you Crystaahhl for holding onto that joy :)
Tactica was fun but I had trouble finishing it because it was so predictable. I was actually getting pretty bored. Only thing I didn't really predict early on was Erina being a persona vs just getting her own eventually. Loved your main comment about adult characters. I think it's the biggest problem in JRPGs and anime, but I get it for the sake of "target audience". I still think P5 is the only one that really suffers for it. The rest work well enough, but 5 really needed to not be centered around High school since it actually involved total society and governance. Glad you seemed to enjoy this so much.
DEENA!! If you see this, you're amazing, I wish you the best with University and life! I'll miss your edits and your memes, but I hope we'll still get to see you pop in during the streams or in Discord! Good luck!! 🎇
So we have the moon god, the tv god, the heart god, the clock god, the movie god, the phone god, the chess god and the art god Edit: I wonder what the next god will be for the next dlc and maybe we’ll get Sophie and zenkichi along with it too
Jesus Christ the DLCs music went heavy tho. Like, it was an aight game, all around good music, but maaan. The DLC music went wild. OUTTT OFFF BOUNDS IS WHERE WE STAAND-
Kinda sad that this was sorta cramed into one episode. I mean I get it, it's a relatively short game but man I enjoyed this game and just wanted to see a lil more. :/. Great video all the same!!!!!❤
Spoilers for P3 FES. They pulled a Metis (with some variation). Metis was a part of Aigis that became a party member, but that won't be revealed until the end.
@@supernerd8067 Susanne Blakeslee, who voices the antagonist of the DLC. I just checked her Wikipedia article, and she’s got a Laundry list of roles to go through (some of which caught me off guard).
My personal thoughts on this game is that I really really liked the story, but maybe it's because I haven't played alot of tactics games, usually I like strategy type games, but the gameplay felt a bit of a slog to play through myself. Could also be that the only real gameplay was the battles. I liked in Strikers where you'd still go explore around the world outside of the metaverse, but we didn't really get that. Overall, gameplay was fun at first, but became a slog to play through later, but story was really nice!
Not gonna lie the awakening was cool but the fact his persona is gender bent Che Guevara is hilarious and so tone deaf I couldn’t help but laugh lmao. Also I won’t stand for the Sumire slander. As always I’m glad you’re one of the few prominent Persona fans that asks for adults in the next game and I always appreciate that.
27:08 “Don’t worry, nobody dies in this story- They just get really big boo-boos.” 27:15 “What did I tell you?” Sorry, that was just asking for a George of the Jungle quote.
I just finished the DLC last night, and I liked Guernica's story and the new mechanic well enough (the battle themes really added to the experience for me), but well, let me put it like this: Persona 4 Golden and Persona 3 Portable are both currently listed on Steam as being $27.99, and I had to pay about $30 including tax; sure P4G and P3P probably would have cost a bit more than it with tax, but those are full ass games, while this is ultimately 6-8 hours of extra content (plus being able to have Akechi and Kasumi as units in the main game, but most people probably would have beaten the game before playing the DLC I think)
Great video! :D Fun game and great editing by Deena! Haha I love Atlus not including content in their base game. I swear Atlus is one of the worst companies when it comes to DLC lately
I remember Crystaahhl once saying something along the lins of " i do'nt care if they milk Persona 5 dry, as long as we get banger lusic". Is that statement true in this case ?
I predicted a lot of things you did too, and made the same jokes you did as well, except that my predictions, once proven right were followed by "Game, I was joking!", and yes, the DLC story, should of been base game included, i agree, there wasn;t enough there to make it worth the price.
I went through the fourth kingdom finishing off the bosses with Toshiro for the Thematic Appropriateness(TM), but he got knocked out at the beginning of Salmael's phase 2 so I couldn't use him there; I _was_ able to finish it off with Erina though, and that _basically_ counts, right???
Wait doesn't the DLC starring the Royal characters takes place after Royal? If so it makes me super happy that Joker did reunite with Akechi at some point, but now they have to make another P5 game to show how they reunite, like seriously I CANT AND WILL NOT SLEEP UNTIL MY FAVORITE PERSONA GAY COUPLE GETS BACK TOGETHER AND HAS SOME PANCAKES-
The Rpyal Trio DLC takes place during Sae's palace, same as Q2 It's why Akechi has his "princely" personality instead of 3rd semester (plus Robin Hood and not Loki), why Akechi and Kasumi didn't know the other had a persona at the beginning, and why they have amnesia after leaving the Streets (to prevent it from messing with Royal's events)
A kingdom takes roughly 15-25 to go through 15-20 flat if you know what your doing I love tactica but I’m not paying over $20 for almost 30 minutes of gameplay
This game is immediately better than strikers because the new characters actually matter to the game and participate. Dude actually gets a persona and fights.

Yeahhhh me and my mom are playing rn
Amazing interview!!
THE CRYSTAAAHL BALL STRIKES AGAIN! MIDORI SAID P6 IS GREEN THEMED!
Crystaahhl: I don't trust people that wear only 1 glove.

I do love Tactica but man…
I NEED IT TO BE LONGER

We need Toshiro and Zenkichi to interact NOW 30:36
I like the chibi style in this game. Not too simple like PQ, but stylized in a way that's cute but can be serious when it needs to be.
It's kinda like it everyone looked like Morgana but it actually worked
The side mission where you have to complete your objective in one turn is my favorite.
There are a lot of those missions
I love them all.@@AstralMuffin105
They are the best examples of the One More system in this game, and the fact that the main missions don't rely more on One Mores is criminal
It wouldn’t be a proper CrystAAHHL Persona playthrough without naming herself Pancakes.
Thank you Deena. Good luck in University!

If it helps you can use Akechi in your fighting party after you complete the DLC I hear.

I’m surprised no one is talking about how Atlus got a Disney legend to voice a character in this game.

YES! The return of the white board! And a party wide Marin Karin... oh wait, that second thing is bad.

Great call doing hard mode. I put it on normal and it was too easy. Put it on hard for the DLC campaign and feels much better.
i recomend tactica 100 percent the sotry is s plus and gameplay is amazing to its a truly great addition the the series
Great video, as always!!!!
Since no one said "The Streamer apologize for bringing Akechi into the conversation again"
I remember Crystaahhl once saying something along the lins of " i do'nt care if they milk Persona 5 dry, as long as we get banger lusic".
Is that statement true in this case ?
why does akechi always leave when i want him to stay

I was wondering how long will it take until you play Tactica😂 Can't wait for the full playthrough of P3R if you ever pick it up
She will im pretty sure shes mostly focus on yakuza 8 im guessing from the latest streams
11:33 what, you’ve never had a cat sleep on your stomach? 🤨

Alright you were worth it
