Here's a good video rundown of all the changes, some easy to understand...others less so:
Forgive me if I skim through this on mute. It's just that... I don't think I have the mindset or stomach to watch and listen to a detailed and narrated video on a subject where my beliefs and opinions are pretty solidified at this point in my life. (This is all dumb and silly, there's a strong undercurrent of FOMO, I assume there's a strong and specific direction of taste in the localization leadership, I don't like how severe the fan persecution complex can get, but Nintendo should stop hating the boobs it orders to be made, I wish Nintendo would better know and anticipate the needs of different segments of their audience hah hah that's a pipe dream, blah blah blah.)
Oh wow, I just... like totally blanked
Aversa's chest in that FMV. Like, I vaguely remember it, but it didn't stick to my mind.

The edges of the budget for this game is becoming more apparent to me as I'm noticing and tracking how much time I'm spending in menus for... everything, really. It's not a knock against the game, but I think it's interesting to think about where the money was and was not spent.
I'm starting to fill in the skill slots for my characters and am getting super anxious over the builds. Granted, I've heard there's reforging, and I have the Skill grinder DLC dungeon to make things go fast. However, the tension over picking active skills is really heating up for me. I can imagine all these skills I'm forfeiting being useful!
EDIT: Ugh, my first wipe. And from a side quest that I got cocky with. Don't let off on a good saving habit, people!
It does make me wonder if Persona 5 will have an autosave. Probably not?
