    Hi everyone,

    I am sure some of you have finished the game by now and can help me out. I have been trucking along playing a few hours each day after work and I am really enjoying the game.

    The question I have is; Is there a certain time say for example the start of a particular month that I should create an extra save in case I want to go back and change how thing play out?

    Like in P4 there is a certain day where events can drastically change the outcome depending on your choices ( I don't want to spoil P4 ). I'm asking as I know I won't have the time for a second playthrough and I don't want to just YouTube them.

    Thanks in advance for the help

    There are two inflection points. Both are clearly momentous choices in the moment; they signpost them just like they do the romances. One is directly after beating the 6th Palace. The other is on December 24th. Can't say much more without tipping the game's hand, but they are both fairly big deals that, if you're maintaining multiple save files, you'll be able to go back and re-approach.

    A bit before the first choice that matters they let you save and it says something like "the story will soon progress greatly". At that point you should make a backup save.

    There were a couple of dialogue choices that seemed like super obvious potential bad ending scenarios. There was nothing subtle or challenging about them, basically say the obviously right thing to proceed or make the clearly dumb choice and get the bad ending. Nothing like the cryptic stuff required in Persona 4.

    Getting the bad ending seems like something you'd have to do on purpose, I wouldn't worry about it if you have basic common sense.

    @ll_exile_ll: I don't think op isn't worried about making a poor decision, but rather wants to go back and experience the alternate route without playing through a chunk of the game again to get there.
