8/3/2019 Differences and Changes0

The Vision Quest. On January 1, Elizabeth and Theodore's sister, Persona 4's very own
Margaret, appears in the game and allows you to pursue optional battles that are among the
game's hardest, especially since they have restrictions you have to win under. Taking place
in what used to be FES' Desert of Doors, the area is accessible via a door that shows up to
the left of the main staircase in the lobby. Theodore/Elizabeth now notify you from time about regular civilians who have been
trapped inside Tartarus. Although rescuing the people is optional, you do get rewards from
Officer Kurasawa for doing so. To make the search for the people easier, you can ask
Theodore or Elizabeth to tell you their general whereabouts within a specific range of floors
within Tartarus after they have provided the initial notification. When a rescue effort involves
multiple people, you must return to the Velvet Room each time to find out where to go next. It
should be noted that there are times when the people kidnapped are actually Social Links.
Failing to rescue them will not mean a game over, but it will prevent you from completing the
Social Link for the rest of the game if you had not already done so. The game will notify you
automatically if a trapped person is a Social Link when Theodore or Elizabeth calls you.
No epilogue content from FES. This means that you don't get to play The Answer in
Portable, although that's probably something of a relief to most players.
No anime cutscenes in-game. You get the two for the title screen and that's it. For scenes
where they would normally show up, you get two-dimensional stills and character portraits.
The only exception to this is when you gain Orpheus at the beginning of the game, which is
still nonetheless rendered in the game's graphics engine.
No polygonal content outside Tartarus exploration and combat. This means that regular
cutscenes and Social Links are also two-dimensional stills with character portraits. No real
animation is present whatsoever. Overworld navigation is replaced with a cursor that lets you
move around more quickly, but otherwise lets you interact with objects, people, and places in
the exact same ways as in the original game.
The square button function from Persona 4 is present, letting you navigate environments
and transition to different places without having to physically move the cursor yourself.
The Inari Sushi stand at the shrine now acts as a place where you can duplicate your
stock of Spell Cards (a new feature to Persona in general explained below) for free, albeit
with a five-day waiting period.
Part-time jobs are now available at two different shops in the Paulownia Mall, as well as
the movie theater at the main monorail station. In addition to letting you earn additional
money outside of Tartarus and item selling, the jobs can also boost your courage, academic,
and charm attributes. The higher the levels are of the appropriate attributes for the work
place, the more money you earn, too. However, the places all have individual schedules that
dictate when you can actually work; otherwise you can only use the facilities as you normally
would.

No more free healing by returning to Tartarus' lobby. If you want to refill your HP and SP,
you now have to talk to same clock you use to save. The pricing, thankfully, is typically far
less brutal than Persona 4's Mysterious Fox ever was.
That same clock also has a menu option that can provide various combat and gameplay
tips to those who are new to the game. Prolonged combat and exploration sessions do not automatically result in characters
becoming tired while still within Tartarus. However, if a party member faints and you return to
the lobby without reviving them beforehand, they will be revived with a tiredness status
attached. Furthermore, the tiredness status can still occur after a night of exploring Tartarus if
you choose to fight multiple guardians in one night. Should the protagonist themselves
become tired, normally after you've concluded a lengthy Tartarus session, you can still
resolve it via the Nurse's Office, Paulownia Mall, or going to bed early.
Going to the door at the top of the staircase in the main lobby in Tartarus allows you to
warp to the highest floor you've currently explored, allowing you to pick up directly where you
left off without having to use the regular teleporter.
Personas0
In addition to the traditional methods of giving Personas new abilities via levelling up and
fusion inheritance, you can now change Personas' ability sets via Skill Cards. Essentially,
every Persona has a special Skill Card that contains a unique skill that they'll give to you
once you reach the appropriate level. You can then use that Skill Card to give that skill to any
other Persona in your arsenal, although the cards themselves are limited in quantity. This is
still handy, as it allows you to potentially bypass restrictions in skill inheritance posed by
fusion and the cards also often contain skills you can use to now easily complete Theodore
or Elizabeth's fusion requests. They're also just plain handy if you want to bolster your
Persona in ways that you otherwise normally couldn't, or at least not without great difficulty.
The party's Personas now automatically upgrade their abilities once they start running out
of skill slots. This means that you don't have to manually tell Yukari, for example, to get rid of
Garu in favor of Garula, as the game just does it for you. As a result, some members' overall
skill sets are slightly altered so as to properly facilitate this automation without necessary
sabotaging their balance (ie: replacing unrelated skills at random).
Inside Battle0
Party members can now be manually controlled. Just like in Persona 4, you can turn this
on via the Tactics menu when it's the protagonists' turn. If you just want to play the entire
game this way and don't want to have to turn this feature on every single battle, you can tell
the game to save your previous battle's tactics automatically via the options menu when the
game is paused outside of combat.
Co-op attacks from Persona 4 return, although they're all functionally the same,
regardless of who teams up with you. When initiated, the game randomly selects an enemy
and then you and your partner perform a critical hit together, knocking the opposition down. It
http://www.giantbomb.com/guides/get-section-comments/?guide_id=1829§ion=1327699929http://www.giantbomb.com/guides/get-section-comments/?guide_id=1829§ion=1327699930http://www.giantbomb.com/guides/get-section-comments/?guide_id=1829§ion=1327699929http://www.giantbomb.com/guides/get-section-comments/?guide_id=1829§ion=13276999308/3/2019 Differences and Changes0
4/27
should be noted, though, that unlike Persona 4, where critical-dealing co-op attacks were
classified as Almighty damage internally, Persona 3 Portable's do not have that luxury.
Instead, the co-op attack is classified as a regular physical attack whose type is a
combination dependent on who's working with you. For example, if it's Akihiko, the co-op
attack is a mixture of both strike and slash. Although this normally doesn't matter, it can leadto situations where the game's AI will occasionally pick an enemy that's already down if the
only alternatives are enemies that are resistant to both physical attack types combined. This
normally occurs only within the last block of Tartarus, as it has enemy groupings that are
somewhat consistent to have physical resistances of some sort. Unlike Persona 4, though,
you no longer have to level up the individual characters' Social Links to have access to this
feature; it is unlocked automatically once SEES' first Social Link chain, the Fool Arcana,
reaches a high enough level, meaning everyone can do it at the same time once it's
available.
Also like Persona 4, other party members are able to tack mortal blows for you once you
per battle per character. This is also unlocked automatically via levelling up the Fool Arcana
and is open to everyone once that has happened.
The protagonist is no longer able to equip weapons of any type. If you're the male, then
you only get one-handed swords. If you're the girl, then you only have access to naginatas.
Both weapons are classified as slash-type when you used them for physical attacks.
All characters can now guard instead of going into stand-by if you want to bypass their
turn. Guarding works the same as it does in Persona 4, providing a one-attack reduced
damage shield that also prevents the normal detriments from having weaknesses exploited.
Fuuka can no longer be commanded to use Oracle... as if many people really used it all
that much to begin with.
Social Linking0
Gender exclusive Social Links. Although both the boy and the girl protagonists have
equal access to all of the Arcanas for Social Linking, the individual characters involved are
sometimes different depending on who you play as. The girl's Social Link set arguably has
the more appealing exclusive characters, which now include all of the male members of
SEES (sans Ikutsuki), as well as a few altered ones for school clubs. Some of the new Social
Links for the girl do still require levelling up personality attributes, such as charm for Akihiko
and courage for Ken. Furthermore, unlike the guy's route in the original Persona 3, the girl's
Social Links with other guys do not automatically result in her hooking up with them at their
conclusion. Making that happen is now dependent on making the right dialog choices at
critical junctures, which also includes Theodore's quasi-Social Link quest set.
School Questions + Exams0Every now and again at school you'll be asked a question by your teacher (or sometimes helping
out Junpei). Successfully answering the question slightly increases your Charm. There is no
penalty for getting questions wrong. You'll also have to do exams during mid-terms and so fourth

which normally consist of five questions and an Academics check on the last day to fully calculate
your score. So correctly answering all the questions and having Academics maxed to Genius will
result in the highest score of your class. If you do well in your exams, Mitsuru will give you a
reward depending on how well you do.

Social Links0
Social Links are a central part of the game and taking part in these can be very beneficial to the
player. There are over twenty two social links in the game, each of them attributed a certain
arcana. Social links involve spending time with the character and selecting the right options to
gain social link points. For extra bonus points, have a persona in your possession of the same
arcana when engaging in social links. For example, if you have the Pixie persona (whose Arcana
is the Lovers), engaging in the Yukari Takeba social link (whose Arcana is also the Lovers) you'll

7/27
gain extra social link points. Keep this in mind in order to progress through social links faster.
In some cases, you'll be able to engage in romantic relationships with certain characters. To do
this you'll have to choose the right answers at certain points of dialogue (which will be tagged with
(Romance) beside them). Being in romantic relationships simply leads to extra scenes on certaindates. At around Rank 7-8 of these relationships you'll have to option of not going into romantic
relationships without penalty. On free days like holidays you'll also be invited out somewhere by
your social link friends for extra social link points. Answers for these are found under "Holiday
S.Links".
For the sake of simplicity, only the best answers and the romantic path answers are listed.
Answers that are not listed are either bad or have no effect at all.
