Can You Beat Persona 3 Reload Blind on Merciless? We're playing Persona 3 Reload, the recently released remake of Persona 3, I try to beat Persona 3 Reload on my first try blind, and on the hardest difficulty, Merciless. Come join me on my journey, filled with funny moments, failures, sadness, DETERMINATION and victories!
Here is the link to the video that helped me persevere through this run:
• how you play games is ...
Love these videos. Please don’t groom kids
LMAOOOOOO. Best comment. Once I learn how to pin this is going up top
Otherwise known as: can you beat Persona 3 in the way that’s probably canon?
LMAO I love that!
The way the game should actually play, without shortcuts, games should be more specific so people don't need to check the game wiki every 5 seconds but i can't blame since its "immersion"
@@M_Feitosa7I agree! That’s why I set out to play the game this way to see if it was better. And for the most part it is! Except for doing the Elizabeth requests, that was awful
@@EldianDevilPlays Thanks for the reply, and yeah, P3 can be a game full of annoying chores like that, but the rewards are kind of fun and the game design uses the Elizabeth chores to make you discover stuff about the game
But yeah i did my first playthrought Orpheus only and i had a lot of fun, since I actaully feel like he is my persona, i spent a lot of points with Agility so im always the first to attack, and i had to go to the wiki to understand some stuff, but it lost most of fun of discovering the stuff blindly, while playing on Hard mode, so i was basically asking to suffer lol
But im really glad i came accross your video, this carried a very important message and the story feels way more fun, plus helps me for when i get gamepass to keep playing
@@M_Feitosa7 I feel the same way about Arsene. I really want to do a play through like that. Thanks for stopping by and watching!
The fact you beat this game blind and without yukari I find insane. You really missed out with her 😭
LMAO. I’ve heard without Yukari alone is a feat within itself
For real yukari is like one of the best members tactically speaking
I was watching this vid thinking it's a popular creator because it popped up on my main page and because the quality was very good but then when you did the Undertale heart reference about giving up I paused to like the vid and saw that you have 36 subs THIRTY THREE HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE THIS VID IS TOO GOOD FOR THAT. So after that long ass sentence I just wanted to tell you that you definitely deserve more bro. I will definitely watch any of the persona content you make ❤
Thank you so much! I put my heart into this video. It makes me so happy you enjoyed it. I’m working on some more persona content at the moment!
Goated thumbnail💀💀💀
Thank you! It’s how I felt when I got trough hard parts of the run lmaooo
@@EldianDevilPlaysit was even worse in fes,imagine not having a boss retry option,no checkpoints,and losing a turn by getting knocked down once instead of getting up immediately. Persona 3 fes was a different beast,this is still hard tho congratulations
@@jeremiahevans6346 definitely a different time. OG persona fans are built different lmaoooo
Yukari is lowkey just infinite phys spam, insane.
Also, Oberon learns me patra and is very easy to get before full moon 3. He's actually the perfect persona for that fight and got me through there free on my blind run. him and archangel stayed on my team for a ton of the early game.
Man what do you have against Yukari? She doesn't actually wanna hurt Junpei, her insults are just light-hearted banter!
Yeah I just had a bad first impression of her. But after going through their Social Link they’ve definitely grown on me! Don’t think I hate any character in the Persona series except persona 4 Yusuke.
@@EldianDevilPlays Oh okay. Yeah a lot of people in the fandom give her undue hate so I like to defend her a bit. Though tbf, you not using Yukari made this run way more interesting because she is broken as a healer lmao.
@@EldianDevilPlays W
Yeah I screwed myself big time LMAO
Junpei is such an annoying charcter in the fem mc version of p3p.
He's jealous of you and on top of that he's sexist and a creep toward you so I joind Yukari in the hate club right away.
SPOILERS
The last spin that fortune did was supposed to warn about Shinjiro's death, thats what happened
31:25 this is the Fortune predicting Shinjiro's death, and Takaya the one who killed Shinjiro is from the fortune arcana, some really great details in the game.
Nyx's phases basically go from 1 to 13 major Tarot cards. From Fool to Death. It's explained quite a bit in P4G when they visit Gekkoukan, talking about the Fool's journey!
That’s an awesome Easter egg! I’ll have to pay attention to that when I run P4G!
I remember I was playing this game blind and the little girl confidant died in Tartarus
Only realized months later when I tried raising the social stat
Yeah it’s so sad! It says next to their social link “discontinued” LOL
for the fight at 14:00, the reason he keeps hitting critical hits is because your party has the fear status. in this game and 4/golden aliments most of the time make it to where the enemy is easily able to be crit. the main aliments for this game that do this are fear, confusion, distress and charm. it works both ways so if you hit an enemy with distress youll probably get a crit most of the time
Thanks! I knew something was up that I didn’t know lol
of course! great video im shocked it has so little views and you have barely any subs. keep up the great work
WHAT A VIDEO from someone with less than 100 subscribers! Seriously impressive 😄, and you played the game better than I would lol. This video had everything and I'm glad I watched it. Keep it up my guy! You may very well have something on your hands here.
Thank you so much for the compliments! I’m glad you came by and watched.
Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance Blind Playthrough? 👀
Ooh not a bad idea. We’ll see!
This video was really good imo u deserve more views and subs I watch the whole vid and it was amazing keep up the content🙏🏾
Thank you! It makes me so happy you watched the whole thing. I hope you have a great rest of your day 🖤
You sir have a talent for TH-cam
That means so much to me thank you!
Nah Bruh you gonna make it. Nobody ever thought of a run like this. 👏👏( I gotta ask how do you manage so much footage. I struggle with even an hour of footage)
@@Rkmaster25367 oh man that was the worst LMAO. I had over 100 hours of footage. I have a 2 tb hard drive with nothing on it and it barely could hold all of it. I pretty much watched back my footage after every few recording sessions and wrote the script as I went along. I cut out all the parts I knew for sure I wasn’t going to use. Like grinding for example. Then made that into a video. Then I deleted the original recording. Then put all of them together. hope that makes sense lol.
We should be friends! Im always looking to get to know other creators!
@@EldianDevilPlays sounds like hell but that's what editing usual feels like(Also would love to be friends youtube is better with connections)
wish i had persona 3 reload maybe u should try persona 5 the phantom x
love ur video new sub
It’s for sure on the list! If I can get my hands on it lol
Pretty sure a maxed out goku could have made light work of elizabeth
Maybe I rewind and give it a try!
Not gonna lie watching you give up on the lovers boss was funny because I beat it after like 3 attempts but it is understandable that shit was annoying
Why tf you got 41 subs? Let's make that 42 rq, great vid!
Lol thank you! I appreciate it
W video pop off I'm rooting for you
I appreciate it. Thank you for stopping by!
i LOVE . this video
it was actually a very entertaining watch and pretty funny , i loved seeing how you experienced the game for the first time on merciless difficulty and with such difficult rules as well
i also played p5 first , and was dissapointed when the social link mechanic gave no buffs at ALL .
i was honestly shocked to see how little views this video has . this is a great video to start off ur channel dude !!
in the future if you wanna do more difficult challenge runs with p3r , there’s a great video (even though it’s two hours long) called “Can you beat Persona 3 Reload without the power of friendship?” , it was played on merciless difficulty (im pretty sure) and mc only , they provided some good strats for the early game bosses such as the lovers or clairvoyant relic because their moves actually go in a specific order , its a good watch and helped me with my merciless run !
overall , great video and PLEASE . keep up the work , i love this kind of content and im sure many people do as well !!!
OMG THANK YOU!!This means the world to me! My goal with this Video was to find just one person who would like it enough to watch it all the way through. I’m working on a few more runs! I’m doing a run similar to that video you mentioned by deus, but taking it a bit further by making it completely solo! So no party members, no social links and I can’t use any shops, or the fusion room
@@EldianDevilPlays HAHA YOUR WELCOME IM RLLY GLAD I STUMBLED UPON THIS VIDEO AND I’M EXCITED TO SEE THE CHALLENGE RUNS U HAVE PLANNED LIKE U MENTIONED !!
Yukari is an asshole. But an awesome asshole. I love all persona characters (Junpei is the best.)
Congratulations on beating the run I'm looking forward to watching future videos on this channel
Thanks for stopping by!
Crazy first video, an amazing way to start things off though
Thank you! This means the world to me
bro ngl i just beat p3r recently for the first time, and i forgot rewind was a thing i didnt use it once
Pretty sure Elizabeth hits you with the 9999 damage megidolaon aka nuclear warhead because she looks at Messiah’s null phys and says ‘Nah fuck you’. To my knowledge you can’t have null/repel/absorb(counter doesn’t count) pierce, strike or slash, you can’t use barriers or items which grant you resistances, and she will use the 9999 damage funny bomb when under 50% HP(for the second time, as she will fully heal herself the first time). Not only that, she was WORSE in the original, as she would use funny nuclear warhead every EIGHT TURNS and quote from the wiki: When her health falls below 6,000, she will fully heal herself and ENDLESSLY SPAM the 9,999 damage Megidolaon until the protagonist dies. Elizabeth is fucking ridiculous, and nullifies a lot of the best personas in this game. If Siegfried is Goku then Elizabeth is Frieza Black.
Dude that’s actually insane lol
dude…. i could have sworn that you would have had like at least 50k subs with the how good this video was…. MY JAW DROPPED WHEN I SAW 317!!! your videos are so good i cant fathom it.
You’re the sweetest. Thank you!
Same
this is exactly what i did, not because i wanted to challenge myself, but because my stupei self wasn't paying attention when they yapped about rewind.
LMAOOO. I do the same thing 😔
I played on hard mode on my first playthrough but I was it was my first time playing persona so I had to change to normal mode 💀
LMAO. I wanted to so bad you don’t understand 😭
Found your channel today through your persona videos. You deserve alot more subs for the quality of your videos, keep up the great work man 💪
You’re so kind. Thank you for supporting me :)
Pllease try to do this again but in fes
I'm ngl, I was kinda confused when you first died and it let you restart from the entrance of Tartarus. When I first played the game (on merciless, like you), I was always told to return to title and reuse my save which just so happens to be from a few hours ago. The only exception to that was when you fought a boss.
Yeah my last save was at the Tartarus Entrance. So when I return rest to title that where I ended up
40:45 LOL
;)
this was kinda the same experience i had when i first played persona 3 fes, without understaning anything about the gameplay, nor how personas work in general, i literally just spammed the rush button until i got to the fuuka boss, where i realized they had weaknesses, and i thought i just needed to grind like in pokemon, so i didn't even do most of the social links, i didn't do elizabeth's quests, and i didn't even fuse personas, so i just leveled up orpheus until like halfway through the game where i realized the power of google.
And what a magical experience that must have been :)
Dude great content, you should try other games too maybe smt v I feel like that's much harder than persona though
It’s on the rotation for future videos!
Merciless, otherwise known as OG P3 difficulty.
Are we talking the hardest difficulty in fes, or the original?
@@jeremiahevans6346 I never played FES, so yeah
@@TactlessGuy by the way,unless the dlc is dog water, never go and play the answer from fes, it's a total grind fest made me almost pull my hair out grinding and trying to bear the bosses,cause it's *Slightly* harder than the main game. So yah wait for the dlc,I'm sure you'll have a better time for you to sit through
I am doing merceless run on my first try. I do look up online no spoiler guide to check level of bosses so i dont over level
That’s sick. Good luck on your run!
On my first playthrough i managed to only have 2 theurgies on makoto 💀
Yeah bro I just fused a bunch of random stuff to unlock theurgies LMAO
Ain’t no way there’s just 167 subs not 167 k
You’re too sweet friend!
Bro. this was a great video! Keep up the content man this is gold you should start streaming your runs on persona or other games!
I might! I have too much anxiety for that rn but I’m working through it!
Lol I just finished my blind Merciless run of P3R yesterday. Adds some much needed spice to an otherwise fairly easy series imo. Would love to see you do this type of run with SMTV Vengence
Me: Makoto, will you sign this contract and play the full game at the hardest difficulty with the full AI-controlled party?
Makoto: No! I don't want that! Yukari, Mitsuru and Aigis making me lose to the boss 99% of the time due to the stupid AI? I want them to think about me and no one else for the rest of the fight and perform optimal moves! Even after I die after sealing Nyx... I want to be at the front of their minds for a while... Ten years at least!
It’s quite easy to do in person 4 and I done this before in person 3. Though on FES which is Aigis episode, mate you need a guide on that for sure. Only if this was on normal difficulty. Hardest is pretty hard.
42:34 1 and 2 actually :D
maybe next smtv vengeance blind, killing the superboss(es)? you would have to know how to unlock them though
I did second tartarus block with just 3 people I found the arcade and just abused a 30 magic Jack Frost completely blind
I’m actually almost done with it on its highest difficulty, I’ve had a few “problems” but after playing p5 on that one boss battle I’ve learned patience
What a video man, keep up 🔥👊🏻
Appreciate it!
Bro got jumped by 4 Gokus 💀
Got smoked
Tuff Video Idea bruh 🔥🔥🔛🔝
Thank you! :)
im gonna save this video for when i beat p3r so i hope its good
Not me realising I was unintentionally doing this challenge. I’m currently half way into the game and I’m just finding out about the rewind button.
LOL. So many comments like this. I’m so glad I’m not the only one that space bars through instructions
This game is so fun
Heck yea it is :)
The 3rd persona video I watched and I liked the first 2 so much I auto liked this video. Keep it up down to like every video you put up
I appreciate you coming back :)
😂❤🎉
Can you beat Persona 3 completely blind on your first try? Probably, but definitely not if you fight Elizabeth.
Man now that I know it’s possible. I really wish I would’ve fought her
Not gonna lie watching you give up on the lovers boss was funny because I beat it after like 3 attempts but it is understandable that shit was annoying
Yea that was the only boss I had to retry on in the whole game (normal difficulty), once the antiques shop opened I rushed to craft narcissus flower because of that
I could not stop watch 👀!! excellent 👌 super funny, and informative 😄 thank you looking forward to the next one. Please don't forget to record!! 😆 🤣 😂
Great video and really funny. Just wanted to let you or anyone else know that if you or a boss is inflicted with status ailments you can get guranteed crits or atleast the chance to hit critical hits is increased and crit amp does not stack with crit boost but apt pupil stacks with either of those. I love making persona builds and min maxing which is the only reason I know this.
Oooh. That’s good to know. Maybe I go do something devious with that information
Not gonna lie watching you give up on the lovers boss was funny because I beat it after like 3 attempts but it is understandable that shi was annoying
Yeah. I was a baby, knew absolutely nothing LMAOO
damn i cant imagine how my experience would be if i played blind. let alone ON MERCILESS
It was wild. LMAO
Bros about to make 1 hour painted darker (idk I’ve never played P3R)
LMAO
Even if you want to change the difficulty the Merciless won't make you do that
Yeah. That’s true!
I know you said you were completely P3 blind, but I'm curious if you've ever played a Persona or SMT game before. I respect not knowing the plot, but if you didn't know the general mechanics, I feared for the worst.
I played Persona 5 a few years ago!
@@EldianDevilPlays oh good. If you were completely blind to the Persona series, you probably wouldn't have made it through.
I always end up using online guides to help out with social links. Ima stop doing that.
I hate that you have to just be a yes man if you want to be optimal. I just pick social options I think are funny lol
Thought i wouldnt be hearing the p5ip ost from a challenge video
I see you have amazing taste!
I'm your 289th sub. Keep up the awesome playing!
I’m glad you’re here :)
I beat it in merciless in first try.
Is what I'd like to say but I have played the old Persona 3 and the persona 3 portable countless times so it doesn't actually count.
But what I noticed is, Reload is significantly easier than portable and Fes. Reload's Merciless is just Portable in Normal.
I’ve heard it’s incredibly Grindy
Yeah no, Reload is considerably easier with all the buffs Physicals got. FES normal mode is on par with Reload’s merciless mode at times
Do status effects EVER work on bosses in Persona? I know you can lower their stats, but I've never seen one be charmed, poisoned, put to sleep, etc. so I always skip those moves on my Personas 😅
Main bosses in persona (such as P3’s full moon shadows) basically can never get inflicted with status ailments but a decent chunk of minibosses can get inflicted by them (especially in p3) you can straight up poison stall the clairvoyant relic if you want to lol
I’ve noticed there’s some very niche scenarios where you can. But most bosses can’t be, so no one really uses status effects unless you literally have no other answers LMAO
Wow dude, amazing video. You've got my sub! Can I ask how you got the 100 shrine visits request done? Did you just visit 100 times throughout your playthrough naturally?
Yeah I was visiting the shrine almost every day, I was terrified of not having a skill card I needed and soft locking myself out of the run LMAO
I really have no idea how I completed all the requests. I was trying my best to explore everything the game had to offer though since it was my first play through.
it's not actually visiting the shrine 100 times, you just have to pray at the main spot (where you pay money) 3 times
GG bro
GGs
This is a pretty good way to experience P3 honestly. While P3R is much easier than the other P3 releases (especially P3FES on hard) but if you're inexpererienced like I was, it could be a pretty hard challenge.
(Though playing through P5 first should give you an advantage)
Yeah it was really frustrating at first. But once I started playing more tactically it was a lot of fun! I can’t imagine doing this on FES LOL
@@EldianDevilPlays Yeah I started FES on hard mode thinking "how bad could it be, I could just grind if I fell behind" and it was painful. And unlike in Reload, once you pick hard difficulty, you can't go back to Normal or Easy
5:50 this is why I thought persona 5 was so easy after play p4, with SL’s in p5 you get a special ability that helps in battle but in p3 and p4 you get nothing unless it’s your party members
Yeah it makes a huge difference in combat!
Well you do get stuff for doing social links in 3 and 4. You get bonus XP for persona fusion. If you know what you’re doing you can make the most of your time and get your social links way up to take full advantage of the extra XP. This system is definitely more balanced than how p5 showers you with rewards for doing the social links, as you actually have to go out of your way to take advantage of these boosts.
31:25 its always scripted to fall in death because is a foreshadow of Shinji's death
Omg. That just broke me. That’s so insane Atlus took the time to put that in the game.
Im your 150th sub keep making videos
How lucky am I?!! Thank you!
Great video man I'd love to see u do this on the older persona games not to discredit u but reload gotta be the 2nd easiest in the series but congrats dude 🎉
I will definitely be playing p3 portable, i really want to experience the Fem MC
@EldianDevilPlays can't wait for it dude
I did this exact challenge on my first play through, of p3r and it made the game so much nicer for me, merciless no google completely blind without playing the prior entries to the persona 3 lineup
while my friends around me used google, for certain aspects and rewinded
there was me only using google for persona fusions (to figure out what i needed to make a special persona i wanted)
this game is a masterpiece and this video too, watched from start to finish
10/10 game, and W video
THATS SO COOL! I don’t have friends that enjoy persona to try that out with lmaoo. It’s such a cool idea. Thank you for stopping by and watching. It means the world to me
@@EldianDevilPlays god speed brother much love I liked the video too, and subbed good this vid was recommended by the yt gods
this was one of those vids that i was able to eat to
Ill be supporting your future content
@@Kirbb LMAO Thank you!I can’t eat a single meal without TH-cam
Bro chill! This is merciless to yourself!
LMAO HUH!??
Is the Run being Blind means that if you die, you restart the Game from the beginning? Aka. No Death? :)
Also, about the Taiyaki. You need to buy some at the School Cafetaria at the front by the Lockers, then put it at the Dorm Fridge at the back of the Kitchen in 1st and wait until certain dates to put a Taiyaki in, then wait another day to grab it... You need multiple in case someone stole your Taiyaki
And oh yeah, you need to get the Rumor that unlock said Taiyaki in the first place. Go to The Nightclub at night (if you had any courage), talk to a shady guy in the corner to buy one (don't remember which rumor is he Taiyaki one), and then use he URL from the shady guy on the Dorm Computer near the Receptionist Desk. Voila
And oh, yes, some requests require you to buy those Rumors, so...
1:46 i think it just means no guides :)
The blind rule just means no guides for the run! I have to save before every major boss fight and can’t go to an old save. So I have to come up with my own solutions for the boss fights or I soft lock myself out of the run!
@@EldianDevilPlays yeah, it was a good puzzle. Congratulations man
The real messiah was goku
He was all along. We bow our heads for goku
The last roll of the Fortune arcana boss is actually just a premonition, that one of your teammates will no longer be available due to the impact of a small, combustion-propelled piece of metal. It's scripted to happen.
Ugh yikes. The real challenge shoudl have been, can you beat persona 3 without crying?
You hate Yukari? Yeah I’m done watching this video
can you beat the easiest persona game in the seres? gee i wonder
Nice one
