So a few months down the line..did people stick with this and finish it off? Opinions?

I did one play through, great game. But couldn't handle a second play though straight away.

My girlfriend and I have both played through it now. I took about 75 hours and she took 95 so it represents incredible value for money.

Bought Persona 5 in the sale, are the DLC bundles worth it?

I notice there are 2 main ones, one with costumes and one with "Personas" from the past games?

Do they enhance the game? break the game or mostly cosmetics?

PSN online is £30. I'd prefer physical but £30 is probably the best you are going to get at the moment.

Here is a tip....the first deadline is 2nd May.....it's not, it really is 28th April. If you go in after 28th April you will fail and waste all that time.

I did see the psn offer and considered that. I'll maybe get it after my expansion drive arrives tomorrow. Cheers

It's not a spoiler, but I went in on the 30th thinking I have until the 2nd. You will fail if you go in later than 28th.

I had played 10 hours at that point and the game throw you back a week before the 2nd May...back to my 7 hour mark so I had to redo 3 hours of gameplay.

Did this sell very well? I've been on the look out for a second hand copy of it but I haven't managed to find one anywhere :/ (in town!)

I understand what your on about now as I've got to that part. Loving this game, it's very engrossing.

By this do you mean your first time going into the dungeon (i.e. not cleared to the boss?) Or literally you must kill boss on 28th?

You have to make it to the treasure by the 28th, there are lots of safe rooms along the way so if you plan to come out to restock on energy snacks or upgrade weapons etc, you really should go in way before that.

Going in on the 28th would mean you HAVE to make it to the treasure on that same day in 1 sitting. The reason is you can't steal it on 1st run, the game sends you out and to do a task which takes a day and then wait another day to go back in.

Wish they told you that at the beginning because I thought going in on the 30th would be enough and the 2nd May is not only the deadline, you will actually fail that day, in the morning, so it's not like you can go in on the 2nd May to finish it. You literally need to do it on or before 1st May.

Alright cheers, not sure what you mean by treasure but I've just been given my first opportunity to go in and usually grind to the boss ASAP before doing social stuff. (Or that is what I did in P4G)

I don't want to spoilt the story but you are a Phantom Thief so by treasure, is the thing you steal but I guess you can say it's the boss fight. Although you don't actually get to fight the boss in the 1st run.

I am at the moment almost back to where i got thrown out the last time now.

One thing I wish it let me do is after a day working, it let me to go shopping before i head back home. After earning that cash i want to spend it and not wait for the next day.
