The secret is not to live in the same place as someone playing Persona 5, but to play it together. I started playing Persona 5 for the first 50 hours, then my girlfriend took over for the next 100 hours and I was the one watching her because she got way more into the game than I did. Now 2 years later, we are married and finally on the last palace. Yeah, it's a really long game.
I'm close to 40. My wife has to spend this month on another continent, so I've downloaded P5 to pass the time during the lockdown. Two weeks later I've put 60+ hours into it. I have regressed to the level of the 16-year-old. I feel kinda Japanese. I'm not sure I know the way back.
I'm glad to know you enjoyed the game! And the fact that you're still enjoying playing. I'm way younger than you, and I hope I still enjoy games when I'm older.
@@ctaffy919Just finished Royal at 140hrs, with maxing all stats and confidants. Definitely drags... Especially since there are hours in between each signifiacnt story node, and each Palace takes around 3-4 hours to grind through until you overpower yourself to the point of auto-killing the non-boss enemies. But at the same time, the characters, story and battle mechanics are all so satisfying that after my 140hrs, I'm excited to start strikers just to see more.
Coming back to this video in 2022, I was blown away again by the editing & polish. Matt always knocks it out of the park in this department, but I think this might be his masterpiece. That’s not even counting Shelby’s always-on-point comedic timing, ProZD’s flawless impression of “Igor” or the absolute banger that is the Last Surprise parody, both vocally and comedically. But seriously, Matt, this edit is (*chef’s kiss)
You know I totally agree with you the thing that made me love persona 5 was the character's and art style and the dungeon crawling and marukis palace that shit was perfect
Here here. My fiancee had a very similar experience to this game. She appreciates it and understands why I love it but she'll still occasionally curse it to Hell for having to hear it over and over again. Doesn't help that I platinumed both vanilla and Royal. She's enjoying Strikers though! The combat is much more fun to watch.
The daily log reading "Cheated on Ann again" multiple times killed me. She's literally the first romanceable character you meet in the game and so many of the characters are good, so you go from "Ah yes this is... romance...?" to "Ah shit I like this person better."
The literal worst is Sumi not being romanceable until the day before the final heist. Like, I love her to bits but that's a bit much. You have to miss Christmas for her.

This is so good it almost left me in tears. Such a hilarious and accurate description of Persona 5. You deserve every damn subscriber. Please don't call me big titty girl.
Three things I got from this game: - A heartwarming story about friendship overcoming adversity - A whole album's worth of great music - Inspiration for my own wardrobe thanks to Joker's awesome fashion sense
I agree, I wouldn't want to watch someone play a game as interpersonal as Persona 5 Royal. Luckily my wife and I are both gamers. I was also lucky enough to be able to play the game while she was at work so that she could experience the game, blind, herself. It's both of our favorite JRPGs of all time and we both ending up romancing Makoto.
Girlfriend reviews: "Talks something bad about Persona 5" Persona fans: "So you have chosen death" Also Girlfriend reviews: *Does an awesome singing music about the game as well as remember to put the "for real" meme in the video Persona fans: "You are forgiven"
I just spent like 8 hours of P5R and this actually made me laugh so much, I'm gonna spend some 100 more hours just to get a better laugh (: Also, nice lyrics lol loved it.
Yo after P5 check out the mainline games in the franchise Persona is in, Shin Megami Tensei. SMT 3 nocturne HD came out recently and SMT V is coming out in November 11th.
Persona music never gets old. I can hear thousand hours straight, which is good because I kinda have to do it because game is so long and for some reason I think doing NG+ is a reasonable thing.
Ya know I have a habit of thinking I’m a super busy person until I decide for the third time “yeah I’ve got another 120 hours i can pull straight out of my ass”.
I always that persona wasn't for me, but now with my paralyzing inability to respond to text messages I'm thinking this might be great therapy for me! Or it's just a clever mask to my unhealthy fascination with bdsm pokemon.... Lets go with the first one!
Yeah it's better than anything even Sony would release at a press conference. My brain glossed over it as stock footage, but yeah... Prob just Matt kicking ass.
My sister was the one watching me play through Persona and she was actually hooked on the story. I would remember her coming to me asking if I was going to play that evening.
I recommend playing them in order but skipping one and two if you don't want to play them I have and their okay butt because each game like a good sequel only gets better and better as soon as you play the newest one the old ones feel terrible by comparison
was waiting to finish the game before watching this masterpiece of review, and last night I finally got the platinum throphy, love it! loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee it!

@@morriganrenfield8240 persona games can still be tough sometimes. I love how the baton pass makes battles flow nicely. Still gonna get nocturne remastered and play on hard mode. I’m a masochist looking for a challenge, plus I can get internet street cred for it
@@SenhorKoringa yep definitely can have some difficulty. Nothing like getting wiped out in one turn from trash mobs in SMT mainline though hehe
@@morriganrenfield8240 been there, getting dunked on in Naraku in SMTIV was quite the experience
@@powerfulech0356 super fun saving every 30 seconds right? :D
This is so good it almost left me in tears. Such a hilarious and accurate description of Persona 5. You deserve every damn subscriber. Please don't call me big titty girl.
Three things I got from this game:
- A heartwarming story about friendship overcoming adversity
- A whole album's worth of great music
- Inspiration for my own wardrobe thanks to Joker's awesome fashion sense
Friendship? More like friend with benefit. When the most optimal way to play the game is to woo as many girls as possible. LoL
Hey you got the same pic as me
the UI is awesome but its so visually... bold that it made me realize I finally needed glasses. made my life better!
This review is actually a 10/10, just like the game.
"more responsible than in real life" Lmao I didn't come here to be attacked 😂😂
I agree, I wouldn't want to watch someone play a game as interpersonal as Persona 5 Royal. Luckily my wife and I are both gamers. I was also lucky enough to be able to play the game while she was at work so that she could experience the game, blind, herself.
It's both of our favorite JRPGs of all time and we both ending up romancing Makoto.
Girlfriend reviews: "Talks something bad about Persona 5"
Persona fans: "So you have chosen death"
Also Girlfriend reviews: *Does an awesome singing music about the game as well as remember to put the "for real" meme in the video
Persona fans: "You are forgiven"
Just the 5 fans. The 4 and prior fanbase is way more chill.
@@kildemal yes? tell a fan of persona 3 bad things about the game, let's see it, but in all honesty all fanbases have that little toxic side
@@Ricardo_Rick I assumed all the 3 fans would be in retirement homes at this point.
Exato.
Normally persona fans would love taking any chance to Crap on P5
This is the only creator that I will watch the entire ad.
Only because that's where they put Layer Cake. Which they should keep forever.
Clearly someone doesn't know about Ryan George.
Reviews are hella FUNNY when Shelby is miserable, to be completely honest. hahahahahahaha
She's at her best when cranky
I just spent like 8 hours of P5R and this actually made me laugh so much, I'm gonna spend some 100 more hours just to get a better laugh (:
Also, nice lyrics lol loved it.
I just got it on switch! Where are you up to?
@@thomasoconnor3573 I got it on switch too. I'm just 6 days before getting expulsion on school but I'm almost finishing Kamoshida's palace (:
@@XMirrorJoe I'm now at Futaba's Palace. You?
@@thomasoconnor3573 I'm on exams week, I also defeated Kamoshida and the psychology guy just arrived lol
@@XMirrorJoe Yeah I've been playing an unhealthy amount lmao, it's so good
Shelby and Matt took their creative talents to the next level with this video
The editing on this video is top notch.
That Last Surprise parody was SO FCKING GOOD MY GOD
This video made me buy P5 and I don't regret it in the slightest. These last 50 hours have been amazing!
Framed Donnut have you finished it yet?
@@KeyToAeris2024 Oh man, I'm in the last palace. I'm taking my sweet time with it, don't know if I'm ready to finish the game just yet :')
@@KeyToAeris2024 I'm at Sh*** palace. Bought the base game, don't know if there's any difference from Royal's last palace though
Yo after P5 check out the mainline games in the franchise Persona is in, Shin Megami Tensei. SMT 3 nocturne HD came out recently and SMT V is coming out in November 11th.
Royal seems to have a whole new semester
I NEVER KNEW HOW BADLY I WANTED PERSONA SHELBY AND MATT UNTIL NOW
Persona music never gets old. I can hear thousand hours straight, which is good because I kinda have to do it because game is so long and for some reason I think doing NG+ is a reasonable thing.
Except in the stupid velvet room with that opera lady screeching aaaaaaaaaa
Ya know I have a habit of thinking I’m a super busy person until I decide for the third time “yeah I’ve got another 120 hours i can pull straight out of my ass”.
i couldnt stop listening to Keep Your Faith for 6 months straight
4:56 "Hey! I'm the worst character!"
I always that persona wasn't for me, but now with my paralyzing inability to respond to text messages I'm thinking this might be great therapy for me! Or it's just a clever mask to my unhealthy fascination with bdsm pokemon.... Lets go with the first one!
Have you finished the game
1:07 this transition was cool as heck
yes, yes it was...
Yeah it's better than anything even Sony would release at a press conference. My brain glossed over it as stock footage, but yeah... Prob just Matt kicking ass.
My sister was the one watching me play through Persona and she was actually hooked on the story. I would remember her coming to me asking if I was going to play that evening.
“HEY. I’M THE WORST CHARACTER!”
-Mishima
Don’t diss my boi like that :(
@@SaKura-il8op 4:56 his words, not mine.
I mean he is right
I completely lost it at the ‘ya like jazz’ bit
I’ve never played a Persona game yet I have 3 of their soundtracks
That’s how good they are
I recommend playing them in order but skipping one and two if you don't want to play them I have and their okay butt because each game like a good sequel only gets better and better as soon as you play the newest one the old ones feel terrible by comparison
@@lordderp6914 I actually played them backwards lmao
5 is the most streamlined/straight forward so probably best to start there and work backwards if you like it.
@@platypuspracticus2 actually thats probably the better solution stick with platy's idea
@@sethms lol I played p5 p5r p3 p4g in that order i highly recommend superbutterbuns for beginners videos on each their absolutely hilarious
Me seeing a Girlfriend Review on Persona 5: "For real!?!?"
For real?!
For real?!!
For real?!!!
For real this time tho
For real, you guys...
The compilation of Ryuji saying "for real?" at the end is really what makes this video a chef's kiss for me
was waiting to finish the game before watching this masterpiece of review, and last night I finally got the platinum throphy, love it! loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee it!
