Take Your Time: Persona 5 Strikers Episode 2: July 27 - July 31 (Alice's Jail)
Manage episode 429404849 series 3586907
Welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona 5 podcast by Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks in which the duo will be playing Persona 5 Strikers in sort of real time, but not quite as in real time as our Persona 5 Royal playthrough. Tom and Jonathon continue their P5 Strikers podcast series with episode 2, focused on July 27 - 31, aka the entirety of Alice's Jail, Persona 5 Strikers' take on Palaces.
The duo digs into P5 Strikers' first big showcase for its combat, dungeon design, and the major ways in which it has translated Persona 5 Royal's systems into a more action-based game. Jonathon and Tom open the discussion by offering their broad thoughts on the Jail as a whole, whether they think it's a good introduction to all the new systems, how it differs from Palaces, and more. Next, they dig into combat and the many changes that have been made but that still adapt Persona 5 Royal's mechanics. While we don't exhaustively cover all combat mechanics, we offer some top-level thoughts, discuss party abilities, Persona usefulness, new ideas like evading and environmental attacks, and more.
Then, they dig into the story and flow of Alice's Jail that sets off Persona 5 Strikers' overarching story. They explore how Prison Keeps, Cores, battles, and exploration all flow together, how they feel about Alice's story within the Jail, and what it's like to go after the first Monarch in Persona 5 Strikers to return people's Desires. We also dig into some of the Phantom Thieves time with Hasegawa, whether they trust him, and what the larger story may involve. Jonathon offers his conspiracy theories about Sophia and Hasegawa, and then the duo set up where Strikers will take us into next week's episode.
Tom also offers his first pop quiz question of the season, and more. Remember, if you'd like to be part of the show, be sure to write in with your thoughts to dornology@gmail.com, or tweet at Jonathon (@jmdornbush) and Tom (@tomrmarks). And as always, nice to steal ya.
