So I recently started playing P3:FES to get myself pumped up for P3P. 
I´m really digging it with the Social Link stuff being the most fun for me.
Also if someone has some tips for me on how to spend the time the most efficient be my guest since I have no idea when I should go to Tatarus and when I should do stuff like studying, going to the arcade etc. But yeah P3P is already preordered and I´m hoping that I get P3:FES done first so that I can play with the Female MC and have some experience when it comes to how to spend the time.

Hm...
 
I had my time pretty evened out, I'd spend maybe every two days going to tartarus unless there is a test right around a corner or something. I studied or went to the cafe' to improve my charm most times (as long as I had managed to reach tatarus' mid point then i would slack)
 
I usually spent maybe 3-4 days total in the month reaching the end of a part in Tartarus, the rest of the time if I needed to social link or somethinkg or get my charm up I'd do that.
 
If i felt under leveled (i always did) i would peek into tatarus again about 2 times a week just to grind a little. When I did that i spent time clearing out ALL shadow's from every floor before i moved up. Also doing Elizabeth's quests is a good way to grind and get things done. Watch out for Death though, if you spend to much time in a spot and you go up to find no shadow's.. it's time to leave.

I've never played P3 and i'm keeping it that way till i get P3P

Question, P3 Portable contains FES or not?  It doesn't matter anyway, considering the entire plot of P3 is voided with FES.  "oh look, the entire savior meaning was just a minor thing due to FES"

" Question, P3 Portable contains FES or not?  It doesn't matter anyway, considering the entire plot of P3 is voided with FES.  "oh look, the entire savior meaning was just a minor thing due to FES" "

the answer isnt there but the rest of the FES stuff will be in P3P

Please tell me I'm not the only one who HATED "The Answer", it's like if you had the story of Jesus and changed the ending to match it with FES.  The entire point of being a savior is broken.  If they JUST added new maps, bosses, etc...it'd be fine. 

That's going on the territory of spoilers, relax a bit. And I liked The Answer. Although I was a tad disappointed with the final boss, mainly because I destroyed it on my first try.

" @Sikila: just don't spend 6-7 minutes on a regular floor. 3 minutes on a floor that is said to have more/less enemies. Time with the menu up or in fights doesn't count.  I'm 30 hours into FES myself and I've had him appear once but yet to fight him... he's apparently preeeeeetty strong. "

" When he appears there will be NO shadows on the floor."

Wrong. I've fought him before with shadows still running around.
