#ann confidant

[idiotwhotalkstoomuch]

So funny story while playing Persona 5 Royal (which I got as a birthday gift lol)

I was finishing up Ann’s confidant right after Morgana threw his tantrum and made me go through the worst arc in the entire game so I was pretty pissed with him. 

I wasn’t dating anyone yet so I thought it’d be funny if I romanced Ann just to spite him but then Shiho pops up and goes 

I could not follow through with the idea after this 💀

It was like breathing fully for the first time, each poem a lungful of pure air. I felt complete. I felt I belonged to me.

I wonder what my younger self would think of me now, grey-haired and post-menopausal, the mother of four grown-up people, and, miraculously, the author of three poetry collections. I get a bit teary just thinking about her, unsure whether I want to hug or shake her. Why didn’t she write? She was undoubtedly outspoken in her way. And a voracious reader. We came from a working-class background, and my parents were very keen on education, banning television in the house until I, the youngest, turned 18.

Unsure of her place in the world, that 18-year-old knew nobody who wrote and believed she needed permission. She had only read a handful of female poets, and only a few were living. The possibility that she could write or call herself a poet was never considered. That was for other people, with a different kind of intelligence, from a different type of background.

My twenties were a blur. It was the late ‘80s, and Ireland was in a deep recession; I’d qualified as a teacher but could only find subbing work in Dublin. I married at 24, and the kids followed. In my thirties, I began to read poetry daily, and finally, as I approached 40, the insistent voice in my head could no longer be ignored. I began to write. Tentatively at first and then with more confidence. Writing opened me up. It was like breathing fully for the first time, each poem a lungful of pure air. I felt complete. I felt I belonged to me.

Honestly, this was a really cool scene from Ann's confidant line in Persona 5 Royal. Learning that she heavily identifies with & wants to emulate the femme fatale supervillainesses who expressed confidence in their body & image from anime she watched growing up is truly reflective of Ann's overall character arc of embracing her sexuality on her own terms and no one else's (especially after the Kamoshida incident).

This is why Ann's initial Persona is Carmen, one of the most famous literary figures of the femme fatale archetype. As the Phantom Thieves member "Panther," Ann is at home with her body & image, utilizing the power of her Persona to prevent other people from suffering the same kind of sexual harassment and abuses of power that she once did at the start of the game.

geniunely not trying to put words in ur mouth im geniunely asking: what do you actually like about persona 5? from all ur rants im just wondering why you didnt drop the game bc it seems (again, im not trying to put words in ur mouth) that it simply not for you? i geniunely have not felt any of the issues you bring up outside of the writing ones and i cannot tell if i'm just easily pleased and not good at discerning what a good game is or we simply have dif things we enjoy in a video game. i hate getting tone across text but im asking out of geniune curiosity im not trying to attack your opinion (;-;)

Nah, i dont feel like ur attacking me, and I hope u dont feel the same when u see my complaints! Lmao. In my defense, I am replaying the game for the first time after completing my first file back in 2020, so alot of the faults i kinda shrugged off in my first playthrough are now glaringly in my face now that I no longer have the confusion and interest in learning the main story to keep me occupied. The game is clunky all the way through, and at some times, even frustratingly so.

But despite that, i do like this game. Alot! Its probably one of my top games ever if im being honest!

This ended up way longer than I intended, so im putting it under a readmore to keep the post short on dashboards

If i had to describe what I liked about the game in the simplest way imaginable…I think I would say, I like how the game makes me feel :) I like the music. I like the vibe. I like the immersion from city to city, and I like the premise! I like the characters and I like the connections you make with these characters! As im replaying this game, i am most excited to see Akira and his comments about the world :) i like hearing everyones voices, I like their little interactions in Mementos, and I like seeing them fight!

P5 is the first game I played in the series; its the game that introduced me to SMT in the first place! And it (smt) is a series that my longtime best friend LOVES and never thought hed be able to share with me! It is a game i keep very near to my heart; it has influenced me in ways i did not think would happen in the short couple of years since i first finished it. It genuinely keeps me awake some nights thinking about the world this game has created, and I think that is a testament to the impact its had, be it good or bad.

The joke about wishing theyd make a persona game that was Good is that despite all of its numerous flaws, the games manage to snatch your attention and pull you in anyway. Imagine if they made a game that had all of those things that i mentioned I loved, but done Right and executed Properly?? Where I got to have a story that made sense and didnt need to be spoonfed to me (in like an HOUR of dialogue and scenes; an HOUR!), and characters that talked and bonded beyond the tiny snippets of interaction theyre allowed to have in mementos? Combat that let me use PERSONAS i liked instead of BUILDS that stop me from getting instakilled throughout the entirety of the endgame, and a Persona building mechanic that didnt feel like I was shooting in the dark looking for possible fusions that end up not even being useful in the endgame.

Ive mentioned it before, but I complain so much bc I have seen what a good p5 game looks like, and its Strikers almost to a T. Combat is still your typical warriors-esque style combat, but it is at least different from the turn based strategy of the main game. Characters talk to each other freely, they hang out and comfort each other in a way that feels more connected that the base game. Strikers implements the ability to see ALL possible fusions with ALL registered personas, not just the ones in your Stock, so you can fuse easily without having yo consult a guide. The story feels like it makes SENSE with antagonists that feel morally grey and sympathetic. Genuinely, alot of the complaints for p5 I had were almost immediately rectified in this game.

But please also know that the praises I sing for this game is only bc of the groundwork laid by p5 and the world it created. Thats what I like about this game, that it had such a captivating premise and cast of characters, that a DIFFERENT company was able to hit the ground running with them. P5 had alot happening in that game, but i think what it had most was potential. The effort put into this game is astronomical, and the possible connections you can outright MISS if u arent paying attention was worth the money and time to implement; even if it meant that it could be considered a waste of resources to higher ups.

Books and games and part time jobs???!! Silly little cutscenes that add nothing to the game PLOTwise, but define and flesh out the personality of your protagonist. There was alot of love put into this game, and its evident by the fact that we have NOT seen a new persona game released; they bank on existing titles bc they are unwilling to make a game like this from scratch again. They dont want to ‘waste’ resources on good voice acting and a complex, overarching story; they dont want to waste money on scenes a player may never see, on routes a player may never get to experience. Making a game that gives u even the slightest bit of freedom means more money in programming and detailing that freedom. This has been an issue for a WHILE, and its a miracle that the gaming landscape had space for a colossal title like p5!

I complain bc I want better, and I do not think that is inherently at odds with my love of this game. In b4 im told to get good; ive played on hard and tested out merciless (its NOT fun, im making godbuilds again and its boring 😞). Its not the most accessible turnbased rpg; theres no colorblind modes, and the affinity system is convoluted and overwhelming. Combo moves are hard to keep track of and it can be incredibly frustrating to see your turns being skipped or seeing characters take extreme technical damage without understanding WHY it happened. The fact that they KNEW the game was desperate for qol improvements by the time royal came out, and instead of updating the base game to have those improvements too, they just pushed the royal edition out for people to play instead. It sucks! Customers and fans deserve better than being forced to shell out money for a game they already played !

As the gaming climate gets more and more hostile and unbearable, I think it is good to look at your games critically, and understand why products come out subpar. Persona 5 is a fun game that has a nice cast and an interesting premise, but it is ultimately tied down by its refusal to build on existing building blocks regarding its combat, and it insists on having insulting and downright out of character dialogue and scenes to appease the audience its designed to be targeted to. It is easy to forget sometimes that queer ppl are infact NOT the prime target of these games, its cishet gamer bros from aged 16 to 40 who will laugh at homophobic comments, who drool over a 16 yr old girl with a 16 yr old mindset and a grown womans body, who need to be placated with constant sexual comments to deal with a convoluted story that will inevitably make zero sense until its laid out for you before the literal end of the game.

Its bad. Its good. Its so shallow and its unbelievable that they thought having the plot twist make ZERO sense until they showed CUTSCENES of YOUR character discussing Goro and his connections to the metaverse for endgame SHOCK VALUE was more important than just having your team be smart and piece it together over time. Its shit. Its literally amazing. It let you FUCK your teacher ??????????????what the FUCK. They also let me shoot a god in the face w the best looking ult persona in the world so i can ignore that shit. And ultimately that is how i got through the game. Lol.

#chattin #answered #i have mentioned it before but i did NOT romance anyone #u know why? bc i literally didnt know it existed #i maxed out ann and the game was like ‘hey. this next decision is important’ #and i was like. huh. u know what. i have not looked up a guide until now. thats scary. i dont want to lose a confidant… #and learned that. #so uh. i really DID go through the game bot realizing i could date anyone. even the adults. #anyway. this was alot. and i tried to keep out alot of my other complaints #bc i have so many. but they are like. either nitpicky things or things that are issues in lots of games too #like the models suck in this game but i can look past that. graphics are always bottom on the list of complaints #and i do like the little animations!! i like akiras little tics #and i like seeing personas do their casting animations; shiki ouji and nekomata are my faves #i distinctly remember that being a thing i wished to see more of. #bc i liked thinking of what joker would look like fighting for Real #and then i remembered him being in smash so i was like COOL. ill look at those #and then i got STRIKERS and it was exactly what I wanted #i think #the game is like. #its bad. but in ways that i wouldnt call another game bad #like back 4 blood is BAD bad. its awful. the gameplay is bad. the story was shit. and the servers shut down within a year or two of launch #risk of rain 2 is bad in the way that it continuously obscures and withholds information to the player. its tedious and frustrating #but unlike b4b i LIKE ror2 and will continue to enjoy it. #bc the gameplay loop FEELS satisfying #and ultimately thats how i feel about p5 #for all of its faults; its fun. it has a gameplay loop that is consistent and fun when u get the hang of it #im playing on hard again since merciless is just me making the right instakill builds while i pick up my team over and over again #and theres still a challenge in having the endgame weapons and armor #its satisfying! and i think its satisfying bc I was given the luck of having this be my introduction into the series #maybe i would have a better opinion on the game if i came from p4. or maybe not! who knows !

What's your favorite Raggedy Ann outfit?

Mines is Witch Ann she's so ADORABLE, also she has brown hair which is pretty odd but I like it

BUT THE CAT PRINT IS SOOO FUNNY THEY LOOK LIKE GOOBERS OMG!!!!

The brown hair isn't strange at all, Raggedy Ann started out with brown hair!

These are Volland dolls, the first mass-manufactured ones.

As far as my favorite alternate costume, I don't know if this counts since it was never made into a doll, but I am in LOVE with the Sweetheart Sluggers concept and I wish it had become a doll design.

And honorable mention to the Dolls of the Month series, they have very cute outfits:

Did you know that Lestat predicted don't want to be evil i want to be loved/evil again.

#the twist is that he's evil again because he wants to be loved and sexy villain gets him the most attention #which is basically being loved #ok i'm now having lestat thoughts because the thing about louis is #he's attractive to lestat precisely because he feeds into all of lestat's abandonment issues #and lestat made him like that! not deliberately or consciously but still. yearning for your deepest fears #your mother was withholding and your first love was depressed? have i got a banger for you #press reads iwtv #this book is really opening my third eye #do i like what i'm seeing? no. #however i've gotta say there's a huge difference between how rice handles the sex ick (deliberate provocative gross but like #it's art. she's doing it on purpose for her work take it or leave it ) #and the racism ick which is. anne u are too confident. anne. anne please stop. anne this isn't working
