    And I am at 06/02 Thursday, Inaba time!

    Persona arrived a couple of days ago and I am now up to date with the Endurance Run - pretty awesome time so far, it has flown in!

    Things I did differently, for anyone interested:

    •  Made a Social Link with Ai, although I don't like her so much
    •  Got my Expression up and talked to Nanako about death
    •  Got a Lv 3 S Link with Dojima
    •  Been comforting Drama Girl at the Hospital - she better get back to Drama Club! =[
    •  Chose Yukiko over Chie when Yosuke asked about who I liked -- really don't dig Chie for whatever reason.
    •  Joined the Soccer Team - I'm from Scotland and we invented the sport. Albeit it is actually named Football here because, y'know, it's played with your feet.
    •  Got in the Top 10 for mid-term grades - POPULARITY LEADS TO INTIMACY!
    •  Fused a lot, and re-rolled many times to get the spells I want.

    So far, my verdict? Best RPG Square's name has been pinned to since FFX. Not going so far as to say it is a Suikoden II / FFVII / Chrono Trigger beater in my eyes yet, but it is pretty awesome.

    Doesn't mean they made the game, it means they published it.

    Sorry, but to settle this can I just point out that I said Square's name was 'pinned' to it; I never once suggested that they developed it.

    I'm glad you like it.  I'm about 70 hours in myself.  Honestly, it just gets better as you go along.  Great game.

    Although I have just discovered I have entered the Bathhouse without a Goho-M =[ Dammit! Wouldn't mind but some of these things are pretty damn strong and I'm back to level 3 if I can't make it to a save -- the pressure! >_<'

    You might be better off just reloading then.  You could try to get a Cu Sith up to level 15 to get Traesto if you have one on you.

    I did the same thing.  I ended up just juking every single monster on the 10th level because the only person with any SP left was Yosuke ><.  It was probably the scariest moment of the game for me.

    For those interested I actually did make it up to the save point (hero had NO SP at all whatsoever by the time I got to the 9th floor), got out and fused the hell out of everything, ended up with some Lv 26+ persona and won the boss fight with a ridiculous amount of ease.
