I can officially no longer be classified as a persona 5 poser

I've finally played through the base game, thoughts about it? I really liked it, would absolutely play again

What version did I play? Royale, because having the baton pass behind confidant and only having a mag per infiltration sounded like a pain in my ass

Did I use any of the free invocation personas? No

Did I use any pícaro personas? Yes, but because I got the from fusion, and those were normal izanagi, magatsu izanagi and Asterion

Who did I max confidant? Ryuji, Ann, Takemi, Yoshisawa, Iwai, Sojiro, Mishima, the wardens, Maruki and Akechi as per my brother's request

Did I girlfriend any of the confidants? No, I was aiming for Takemi at first, but when I realized I never took any of the choices that would lead to anything, then I aimed for Futaba but I was already in the late game, so my Ren stayed bitchless :b

Who were my favorite characters? Takemi, Futaba, Yusuke and Sojiro, especially Yusuke

What was my favorite palace? Shido's because of what I had to do to enter the treasure room and the music and kaneshiro's also because of the music and because of piggytron

In what fights did I struggle the most? Madarame because of the damn black paint move and because I had Ann instead of Ryuji for phase 2 and Okumura, specifically on the third or fourth set of robots imnotsure; the green ones, because I didn't have any strong curse moves at that point

Did I struggle with shido's fight? No, in fact, I thought Akechi's second fight was trickier, because of him always changing between physical and magical barriers, also because I was a dumbass that didn't use Makoto's defense up move even though akechi hit like a fucking train

What was my favorite fight? Kaneshiro's solely because of piggytron

What was my LEAST favorite? Wakaba's, waiting until Futaba felt like giving me another ballista shot felt like a slog, which is a shame cuz I really liked Futaba's palace

What did I name the character? Ren Amamiya because I'm a very canonical guy.

And finally, why did I call myself a poser? Well, because of my pfp; I've had that thing as long as my Reddit acc exists because 1. It looked cool and 2. I was interested in the game at the time, but I didn't have any way of playing it, and the only contact I had with the game was 3 and a half hours of an 11-hour gameplay video, so I had a rough idea of what the game was about, but nothing else.

Final notes: everyone calling Ren a thug is very ironic considering the dude wears glasses for fashion, is the type of guy that reads on the train and...c'mon, he would sooner drink coffee while reading in a rainy evening before even thinking about pulling a knife on anyone and this game definitely interested me in the other Persona games, especially the fourth one.
