4/13/2014 is upon us -- time for an update! Today, William Rikeru helps a rolling student, gets a free dinner, and puts his head in a TV.

See you tomorrow! *i heard you like screenshots*

Hey you guys Day 2!

Thanks for all the comments and feedback!

Today, William Rikeru goes to school and meets some ladies and his scary teacher. *brace for screenshots*

I considered doing this, but I know I'd just end up playing through several days in game at some point.

@mosespippy: Yeah that's what I did when I finished it the first time. I found out I got the Bad Ending and decided to start again but stopped after a few weeks. The second time I tried a NG+ was months later, but with the same result. I guess I'll go back once again when Persona 5 launches in Japan.

Bit what are you going to do about days where you can't save in between, and days that fly by (like the exams and midterms) and days that are too long to play in one real time day (dungeons)?

I thought about doing this as well but the way the game handles some days kind of made it doing it a little boring. One day I'd want to play a lot of Persona, but I'm limiting myself to answering two exam questions.

I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who does this...

I still haven't read the other Persona 4 Golden thread (largely because of the Golden part) :(.

I was thinking of doing this as well, but I'll probably forget to play it for a month and just give up. Good luck anyways duder!

That's a neat way to play it. Hopefully some of the more event less days don't deter you. Good luck duder!

Oh god the persona screenshot warfare intensifies.

I just wanted to say that "William Rikeru" is a really good name.

It's not really a game that you should play again right after finishing it the first time. It's more like a game that you should start again 8 months to a year later. It's more fresh that way, and like visiting old friends.

Have yet to finish a second playthrough. I've tried twice but each time I feel like there are other games that need my attention. Good luck duder!

This is cool. You have my support.

Oh, neat. Good luck with this!

By the way, I expect you to tell Chie, "Falling for me, huh?" and for you to ask her number straight out-- pretty much the best parts of New Game+.

The biggest problem I would have with this strategy is that I try to grind out as much as I can in a single night of dungeoning - a process which can then take many, many hours compared to any other non-dungeon day.

Playing on very easy or easy makes it so that you don't need to do much combat. I walked past most enemies, only doing the gold hands, red enemies and searching for the quest items and hit level 99 in November. Having played through P4 five times and P3 twice I don't want to play that combat any more, so making the dungeons take 70% less time is a huge relief.

I know a few who tried to do the same exact thing you are doing. Most of them ended up quitting about halfway thought because they felt it was a very boring way to play because some days can only be minutes long depending on how you play.

I wish you luck though!

@baka_shinji17: Thanks! Grinding can indeed be tough - Hope you can finish the game!

Good luck big bro! I have yet to finish P4. Right now, I just reached Heaven and from what I gather, I still have quite a ways to go. I love the game but man, sometimes grinding really kills it for me. I guess why it has taken me so long is because I will play daily for a week or two then take month long breaks from sheer exhaustion.
