Deadass persona 4 did that for me. after I returned to school in my junior year I had much more confidence and care in my relationships making friends with people I never thought I would even get close to finding out they were completely different than what I used to think them as, becoming friends to the point where I was even actively hanging out with them out of school. Also got into new interests such as learning musical instruments, going to the gym, and cooking. Besides having excellent grades in advanced classes I really didn’t have anything going for myself, and this game really just opened up my eyes in things I had that i could work towards in life wether it be things I could work on for myself or things that would help others. looking back it’s really cringe on how something like his helped me so much but I’m thankful it happened🤣.
Another possible type: The Enlightened. These are the opposite of the Persona No-Lifers. Before playing Persona, they were No-lifers, but instead of playing Persona, they wasted their time on other stuff. Persona changed their lives. After playing Persona, they meditated to get a grip on their reality and accepted their deepest, darkest, most repressed part of themselves. Afterwards, they got their life together and life happily ever after. Despite the Persona games’ objective is trying to create as many of these fans as possible, only one in In tens of thousands will ever reach this status.
Was looking for a comment like this. Just started getting into Persona 5 and the more I play it the more I realize I was a no lifer doing the exact same eat, game a lot, study a bit and sleep routine every single day. I got the game for variety in the games I play, instead I got an awakening
i had a "change" similar to this, but nowhere near as drastic. Used to be introverted and shy as hell, but Persona helped me get over it and learn to socialize more. Still introverted and somewhat shy tho
You forgot about “The lonely player”: Those who play Persona for the story and can enjoy the gameplay and they use the games to get friends to escape the horrors of everyday life by living in a fantasy world where no one can hurt them. ... Damn I depressed myself there 🥲.
I just use a guide to pick the right choices during social links. I want to see the characters stories continue without having to hang out with them an extra 500 times each.
In my most recent playthrough of Persona 5 Royal, I've definitely stared leaning into the Fusion Calculator territory. I'm not as intense as the extreme ones, but since Royal makes it ridiculously easy to get insane amounts of money in only a single day, I've been spending a lot of that money fusing Persona that are all much higher than my level now that I've maxed out the Twins social link. Money basically makes you unstoppable in this game. I guess Cash Rules Everything Around Me even in video games lol
When I played P5 I only kept using the same 2-3 save slots, so when I made this channel months later and wanted footage of certain palaces and what not I legit just had to do that for hours and it was so awful

@OneFortyFour same, persona 5 and persona 5 royal really take Fusion to another level, though I went one step further and created one perfect persona for every element and damage type in the game like perfect phys perfect gun perfect fire perfect ice etc as well as for each ailment, and crit
When I played P4G (my first Persona game) on my Vita in 2017, I was still in college and had a close-knit group of friends (some of whom were playing P5 at the time). I just completed P5R for the first time this year. The story of the Phantom Thieves is so comforting to me because it reminds me of the beauty of having a group of friends in your life. All of my real life friends live far away now. No love life to speak of. Currently unemployed . . . I have become the No-Lifer (Although I do have a job interview two days from now).
you should add the "real lifer" they are kinda like the no lifer in how they are obsessed with the game but they actually have some kind of life and everything in it must be related to persona lol. They probably call their friends "confidants" and change their wardrobe to have a ton of blazers to feel like joker. They also like cats
Yep, I must have the guide so I can max every social link first try. Which is why I’m worried about Persona 6 coming out and either having to play the game blind or waiting until someone makes a guide.
What I love about this video as a new Persona player that is just getting through their first run of P4G... bunch of images from P5, but all that awesome nostalgic music from P4.
@@Hairy-eyes it was bound to happen eventually, but when those comments were made it was at like a pretty high view count, like 10k with 0 dislikes, which is something that never happens and was rather peculiar
I've halfway through P5R on Merciless for months. I just stopped one day because I'd already completed base P5 and the new mechanics and difficulty lost their luster for a minute. I'll get back into it eventually but sometimes it's good to take an extended break...
@@alzhanvoid Same!! This was literally me up until about a month ago. Loved P5, thought I was going to be super into P5R upon release but it took me a long while to want to dive in. Finally got into P5R and got super hooked for 122 hours. And now... I can't even touch it anymore 😭 From taking the plunge, to burning out, to another plunge, and another burnout 😂 'tis a vicious but joyful cycle.
I'm a chill player. I never played P3 or 4, but I really took my time with Persona 5, I cleared out the Palaces in one day each, and had time to explore. The only guide I looked up was the guide to avoid dying in jail.
@@hollyfindlay4051 what changes did they make in royal that made it worse because I've spent hours in the velvet room already in normal P5 so P5r being worse scares me.
@@The_best17 They made personas much more malleable, with the addition of a trait to each as well as their skills. Also, fusion alarms allow you to easily get stats to 99 and unique items, which just meant I hung out there more than ever.

I'm the same way lol. I can literally spend a few hours in the velvet room just browsing fusing combinations and finding ways to make personas with the exact skillsets I want. It's ridiculous really
Same here man, though I went one step further and created one perfect persona for every element and damage type in the game like perfect phys perfect gun perfect fire perfect ice etc as well as for each ailment, and crit
I think I'm a mix of chill player and completionist. Anyone else feel like its a necessity to play at least a second playthrough for every Persona game? It's hard to part ways with such a good game. It just feels like you leave your friends whenever the game ends.
I didn't think any of these would fit me, until you mentioned the calculator. Holy shit I live and breathe for the perfect Persona fusion builds, and I love making overpowered starter personas.
Of course I used a guide, 90% of the time the best option to get the most points from a confidant isn't obvious and conflicts with their character's personality, which doesn't make any sense. Seriously. That's like the only real complaints I have with the games.
I was bored and lonely and under-employed during quarantine, so I ended up binging P4G, P3FES, and P5 back to back over the summer. In that order, because PC P4G. Now they're just kind of a jumble of dungeons and waifus and awesome music in my memories. But I named the main character Dude Broski in every game, which at least gave them all a chill vibe.
I’m the guide cultist, the calculator, and the completionist combined lol. I use a guide on every persona game till I get used to the game 😂. Then I spend way too much time in the velvet room perfecting personas and completing the compendium as well😂😂. Then I try to 100% the game on every new game I play through. That means social links, stats, and beat the bosses on the hardest difficulty. I love a challenge!
The only game where I spent way to much time in the velvet room was in scramble, because it's by fusing and fusing, and fusing more and more to get the stat boosts for that 99 all rounder
I'm the chill player for the first playthrough and the guide player to learn about the characters. Also, was a no lifer when I found persona and fell in love with the persona games as well as the SMT games 😊
2:30 Oh god… This right here. This is painfully relatable. The worst part is it’s actually better in persona. In SMT, it’s a total cluster fuck, ESPECIALLY if your SMT game lets you fuse humans. Edit: Oh, well it was relatable. Social links are defining to Persona.
It's deeper than a lot of games, but when pushed up against a game that focuses on one of those aspects, sometimes it gets outdone. That gives people easy things to complain about. I think, for example, that Mainline SMT's combat is better. However, Persona's social links are so good that I think they make the games worth it on their own. Stuff like that, where it comes down to preference and priorities, can be why it's hated on. Also, ignorance could be a large factor.
@@hollyfindlay4051 and Thats why I am a fan of The Persona games becauce its a lot of Psychology details in It and it really really grabs my attention, it grabs a hold of The human psyche and behaviours in people and I find It extremely appeling, The Persona franchise kinda drew me in for The anime style of this game becauce I a little geek, its so amazing how something as real and educational as psychology is adapted into a game, Its so fasinating getting into The psyche of the characters in The Persona series, I love Persona for how deep it really is and this game series kinda fasinated my mom as well think that Persona is a genuies game, I know The game has flaws as well of cource not completely perfect but these games are so relateable
@@hollyfindlay4051 i have never played SMT before but I thank SMT for providing The demons for The Persona series tho, I cant compare The combat system between the two so I am relaying on what you say there, I dont see a problem in Persona tho I like the social sim part of The game and I love The story part of It all so The combat doesnt bother me as much only in The fight with Okumura does It bother me tho a little
@@jessicajohnson2412 Okumura does suck, yeah, lol. It's more so that Persona combat is a less deep version of SMT combat. The press turn system is watered down once it becomes 1-mores, (and baton pass helps, but it isn't enough, in my opinion) and the fact that you only customize the main characters moveset and resistances, vs. SMT where you can control the moves and resistances of the whole party by fusing different demons. I do like Persona, but the social stuff is the highlight. If I'm in the mood to enjoy some deep combat, mainline is better. At least both have amazing music. That's a win-win.
I'm probably a small part of a lot of the types combined lol

Me: I'm feeling attacked right now.
defo the persona fuser one. Creating the perfect satanael with riot gun and seeing just how much damage you can squeeze out of your personas got me hooked
You sir have my respect
@OneFortyFour same, persona 5 and persona 5 royal really take Fusion to another level, though I went one step further and created one perfect persona for every element and damage type in the game like perfect phys perfect gun perfect fire perfect ice etc as well as for each ailment, and crit
Its the spending hours to get that perfect skill combination on a persona in p3fes for me
2:45 So nobody actually wants to see my lvl 99 max stat yoshitsune with apt pupil hassou tobi??
When I played P4G (my first Persona game) on my Vita in 2017, I was still in college and had a close-knit group of friends (some of whom were playing P5 at the time).
I just completed P5R for the first time this year. The story of the Phantom Thieves is so comforting to me because it reminds me of the beauty of having a group of friends in your life. All of my real life friends live far away now. No love life to speak of. Currently unemployed . . . I have become the No-Lifer (Although I do have a job interview two days from now).
Hope everything went good at the interview and you're enjoying life and yourself more now. Cheering 4 u mate.
hope you're doing good now
you should add the "real lifer" they are kinda like the no lifer in how they are obsessed with the game but they actually have some kind of life and everything in it must be related to persona lol. They probably call their friends "confidants" and change their wardrobe to have a ton of blazers to feel like joker. They also like cats
Like this? th-cam.com/video/XPJrIH5r_oA/w-d-xo.html
I might fall into that type.
That's me
Damnit, the Guide Cult Member hit a little too close to home
literally me after my first playthrough of persona 5 lmaoo
Yep, I must have the guide so I can max every social link first try. Which is why I’m worried about Persona 6 coming out and either having to play the game blind or waiting until someone makes a guide.
What I love about this video as a new Persona player that is just getting through their first run of P4G... bunch of images from P5, but all that awesome nostalgic music from P4.
I’m a mix of all, but am mainly in between the chill player and the completionist.
the fact that this has 0 dislikes says something
It’s honestly really weird tbh
This didnt age well
Edit: I didnt dislike btw
@@Hairy-eyes it was bound to happen eventually, but when those comments were made it was at like a pretty high view count, like 10k with 0 dislikes, which is something that never happens and was rather peculiar
Ye I guess
@@HeavenlyM what is their to dislike?
I'm the "loved the fuck out of it for 3 straight years then got horrible burnout until recently"
Yep. 100% Platinumed P5, havent touched Royal. (Bought the collectors edition. Ive used the mask that comes with it more than the game.)
I've halfway through P5R on Merciless for months. I just stopped one day because I'd already completed base P5 and the new mechanics and difficulty lost their luster for a minute. I'll get back into it eventually but sometimes it's good to take an extended break...
@@alzhanvoid Same!! This was literally me up until about a month ago. Loved P5, thought I was going to be super into P5R upon release but it took me a long while to want to dive in. Finally got into P5R and got super hooked for 122 hours. And now... I can't even touch it anymore 😭
From taking the plunge, to burning out, to another plunge, and another burnout 😂 'tis a vicious but joyful cycle.
@@conspiracypanda1200 I suggest going through P4 and P3, it made me not be burned out of persona 5 anymore
i’m none of these i’m like a mix between the chill and the completionist
I'm a chill player. I never played P3 or 4, but I really took my time with Persona 5, I cleared out the Palaces in one day each, and had time to explore. The only guide I looked up was the guide to avoid dying in jail.
sadly fusion calculator, ive spent several hours in the velvet room, atleast 10 hours
P5r does that to me in a way no other game does... P3, P4, and Normal p5 i was fine, but Royal ruined me.
I only did it to max twins confidant because twins are OP lol
@@hollyfindlay4051 what changes did they make in royal that made it worse because I've spent hours in the velvet room already in normal P5 so P5r being worse scares me.
@@The_best17 They made personas much more malleable, with the addition of a trait to each as well as their skills. Also, fusion alarms allow you to easily get stats to 99 and unique items, which just meant I hung out there more than ever.
@@hollyfindlay4051 oh so basically they made the velvet room more broken and easier to get broken stuff from there?
You forgot the person that wants to be special and says things like "Only Persona 1 and 2 are good".
They also probably haven't played Persona 1 or 2.
I'm the type who relates with the characters, in this case, Yusuke. Always wondering if I can afford food tomorrow.
chill on the first playthrough, then completionist. but im just starting with p5 & p5r ! cant wait to work my way backwards 🥸
3:30 I missed a random text from Mishima in August and I couldn't get the complete all Mementos requests trophy in Persona 5 so I feel this.
So true! In my case i dont work at lala chan due to tight schedule in my social link (which not all maxed as well lol, damn u shinya)
Same, i got all the trophies in my second playthrough except for the requests' trophy because i forgot to do the request about the bully who bullies other bullies so i had to do a 3rd playthrough
Combination of completionist and the one that makes over powered personas.
Totally relate to this! Least until he mentioned the platinum part.... I proudly said spending 200 hour to platinum p5 vanilla
@@ardraagatama2858 Damn, big respect for that. I got Royal's, but I can't work up the motivation to slog through normal p5's.
@@hollyfindlay4051 i dont afford to buy p5r lol but yeah they toned down the difficulties of the trophy list tho....the fishing and retro game kinda drag for sure but fighting against the loli was so much fun, too bad they dont put lavenza in the vanilla one
@@ardraagatama2858 I think the real reason why Lavenza isn't a secret boss is because if she were in the game as one, someone could share that and spoil what was a major plot twist at the time the game came out.
@@KaiKrimson56 yea even on her limited screentime in vanilla, she was described as "spoiler-kun/chan"
I'm the calculator it's oddly my favorite part of the game.
I'm a combination between chill and completionist.
The type that drops the game after being spoiled by a TH-cam thumbnail.
I, too, turn into Purple Eggman Gloucester whenever I play persona
The description you gave of the SMT purist, an smt fan who shits on persona online really reminds me of someone in the smt community....
Nocturne Fanboys
I can be these different player types everytime i started a new playthrough so i experienced them all
0:45 Persona 5 literally made me a weeb.
That's rough, buddy
Rip
That was me but with NieR: Automata instead
THEY FIGURED ME OUT, IM A MEMER
And I'm in the guide cult lol
@@NicoNikoNick hi. Me too :)
@Futables Sakura I mean I played p5 on TH-cam and p4g on steam but all I do is meme
@@azophi how can you play persona 5 on ＹｏｕＴｕｂｅ？？？
@@luisdabest5396 hey don't mess with us persona 5 fans we never played the game
I am the chill type of player who looks up guides.
I'm soo the Calculator. the amount of literal hours I spent in the Velvet room perfecting my personas is unreal.
I’m the calculator idk why but it’s just so fucking fun, but I do care about the main story plus confidants, but goddamn I love the velvet room
I'm the same way lol. I can literally spend a few hours in the velvet room just browsing fusing combinations and finding ways to make personas with the exact skillsets I want. It's ridiculous really
@@swamp-puppy14 bro me too
I was only like that with P3 as you are limited with the fusions compared to 4 and 5. It was almost like a "breaking my limits" ideology for me
Same here man, though I went one step further and created one perfect persona for every element and damage type in the game like perfect phys perfect gun perfect fire perfect ice etc as well as for each ailment, and crit
I think I'm a mix of chill player and completionist. Anyone else feel like its a necessity to play at least a second playthrough for every Persona game? It's hard to part ways with such a good game. It just feels like you leave your friends whenever the game ends.
me: I'm none of these..
sees the last one: I feel called out
"They forgot to read some random book on their tenth playthrough"
Omg I did that on a playthrough once
I hate that I know/am friends with at least one person that fits within each of these types.
Hey at the very least your get togethers must be pretty entertaining lol
I wish I had that many friends who like persona .-.
1:17 I love that nowhere in there is any time for actually playing mainline SMT
I didn't think any of these would fit me, until you mentioned the calculator. Holy shit I live and breathe for the perfect Persona fusion builds, and I love making overpowered starter personas.
I am a mix between chill and calculator. I enjoy the stuff inside the games and check fusion online calculator to build the personas
2:47-3:12 is basically about over 50% of us in 2020. Pain.
When the real world won’t let us have a social life we gotta find it from somewhere 😭😭
@@HeavenlyM I guess 2D girls will have to do for now! Then again, they were even before the menace known as 2020! XD
I beat it in 130 hours, really took my time with it and wouldn’t have it any other way :)
Bruh I've spent so much time fusing personas. 😂😂
waking moment? You're saying that like they even sleep
lmfao good point
SMT Purist is all:
Lul, why don't you play a real Shin Megoomi Tensay game
Shit Moogayme Tensee is better than Purse owner
Tyrown! Yew ahr but cashooal scom. Woi dout yew plai ah reel Shen Magoomy Tansay Gaem?!
So I am not the only one who gets annoyed with SMT fans? They annoy me to no end
The only correct option.
@@ils4844 yuh
Of course I used a guide, 90% of the time the best option to get the most points from a confidant isn't obvious and conflicts with their character's personality, which doesn't make any sense. Seriously. That's like the only real complaints I have with the games.
I fall in love with every character on screen. Ryuji, joker, and yusuke have my heart.
Yes I am the no lifer.
In my first playthrough of vanilla p5, I was the chill player, and in my first playthrough of p5r, i was the calculator lmao
I was bored and lonely and under-employed during quarantine, so I ended up binging P4G, P3FES, and P5 back to back over the summer. In that order, because PC P4G. Now they're just kind of a jumble of dungeons and waifus and awesome music in my memories. But I named the main character Dude Broski in every game, which at least gave them all a chill vibe.
Pretty much same, I'm a student so when quarantine hit there was nothing to do and I played them in the reverse order as you. Good memories
@@HeavenlyM Yeah. Also, the sensation of having gone through a full Japanese high school career in three months was just... odd.
I think I'm 40% of "the guide cult member", 40% of "the chill player" and 20% of the compleitonist.
I’m the guide cultist, the calculator, and the completionist combined lol. I use a guide on every persona game till I get used to the game 😂. Then I spend way too much time in the velvet room perfecting personas and completing the compendium as well😂😂. Then I try to 100% the game on every new game I play through. That means social links, stats, and beat the bosses on the hardest difficulty. I love a challenge!
I'm in my own category. "bought it having never played another atlas game cuz i thought the metal box at walmart was cool"
Respect✊
When you’re a special breed and don’t show up in the video
Im like a hybrid. I am pretty chill gamer, but I DID use a guide during my ng+ AND im a Sumire simp
I'm chill but I've played P1 & both P2
"The converted" over here lmaooo😂
Thank you for putting specialist in the background. I love it.
Fusion of Calculator and Guide Cultist.
Wait, so I'm converted, chill player, waifu warrior and calculator at the same time. Nice video btw
the way you literally exposed me in the chill player section has me sobbing
I'm one of those players who never sacrifice their starting persona (orpheus, izanagi, arsene) and if you sacrifice them *YOU'RE A MONSTER*
Oh my god yes, that’s definitely a type I should’ve mentioned. When I get around to part 2 that’s going in there lmao
I'm probably the memer and the waifu warrior combined with a little bit of the chill player lol
Bro i was just watching one of. Your vids! Love the channel btw great vid
Appreciate it, glad you enjoyed :)
I came to persona a couple years ago before 5 was out and forgot about it til smash then fell in love with the series again.
The only game where I spent way to much time in the velvet room was in scramble, because it's by fusing and fusing, and fusing more and more to get the stat boosts for that 99 all rounder
*sees SMT purist* guys look its me, I'm on there!
Based.
You are not a real smt fan until you have played megami tensei for the nes or ronde.
Based
I'm the chill player for the first playthrough and the guide player to learn about the characters. Also, was a no lifer when I found persona and fell in love with the persona games as well as the SMT games 😊
Overtime, I shifted from the cult member to the chill player. I am liberated.
2:30 Oh god… This right here. This is painfully relatable. The worst part is it’s actually better in persona. In SMT, it’s a total cluster fuck, ESPECIALLY if your SMT game lets you fuse humans.
Edit: Oh, well it was relatable. Social links are defining to Persona.
Heavenly: Do not become the No Lifer
The no Lifers that has lost cause: *Insert Cry*
“Not finished the game.” You give the memers too much credit. Persona fans don’t play the games...

@@marrowyoutube I’M PUTTING A RESTRAINING ORDER ON YOU
Is there a type for: “Every time I get midway through a persona game the entire thing is spoiled for me”?
Asking for a social link.
The words “Lorenz squad BTW” triggered me deeply.
He’s a whole clown in White Clouds but the time skip made him actually pretty cool imo
@@HeavenlyM He was better, but his constant bitching about all of Claude's plans that worked perfectly really got on my nerves.
I an a Persona fangirl and I do not feel ashamed for loving this franchise, I really dont get why Persona gets bashed for
It's deeper than a lot of games, but when pushed up against a game that focuses on one of those aspects, sometimes it gets outdone. That gives people easy things to complain about. I think, for example, that Mainline SMT's combat is better. However, Persona's social links are so good that I think they make the games worth it on their own. Stuff like that, where it comes down to preference and priorities, can be why it's hated on. Also, ignorance could be a large factor.
@@hollyfindlay4051 and Thats why I am a fan of The Persona games becauce its a lot of Psychology details in It and it really really grabs my attention, it grabs a hold of The human psyche and behaviours in people and I find It extremely appeling, The Persona franchise kinda drew me in for The anime style of this game becauce I a little geek, its so amazing how something as real and educational as psychology is adapted into a game, Its so fasinating getting into The psyche of the characters in The Persona series, I love Persona for how deep it really is and this game series kinda fasinated my mom as well think that Persona is a genuies game, I know The game has flaws as well of cource not completely perfect but these games are so relateable
@@jessicajohnson2412 I agree with what you are saying, yeah. Persona does have all that going for it.
@@hollyfindlay4051 i have never played SMT before but I thank SMT for providing The demons for The Persona series tho, I cant compare The combat system between the two so I am relaying on what you say there, I dont see a problem in Persona tho I like the social sim part of The game and I love The story part of It all so The combat doesnt bother me as much only in The fight with Okumura does It bother me tho a little
@@jessicajohnson2412 Okumura does suck, yeah, lol. It's more so that Persona combat is a less deep version of SMT combat. The press turn system is watered down once it becomes 1-mores, (and baton pass helps, but it isn't enough, in my opinion) and the fact that you only customize the main characters moveset and resistances, vs. SMT where you can control the moves and resistances of the whole party by fusing different demons. I do like Persona, but the social stuff is the highlight. If I'm in the mood to enjoy some deep combat, mainline is better. At least both have amazing music. That's a win-win.
How is it possible that I’m every single one at once.
I guess the hint is in your username ;)
Definitely a mix of the chill player and completionist 😅
I think I'm a chill smt completionist
Yes, it's taking me a LONG time to complete games
I’m the memer, but I’ve actually beaten the game
Big respect. That’s what we can only hope for for all the Memers out there, that they eventually come around 🙏🏼
