The Offical Push To Finishing Persona 3 Portable Begins

Hi everyone,

Well let's talk about Stream Elements and the fact I created new merchandise, and my order for my own shirts was not delivered to my home, but instead UPS & USPS somehow delivered it to somewhere in Barrington, NJ which is no where near my mailing address! So to say I'm livid is an understatement!

Work was alright, we didn't have the good assignment that I was on the last few shifts, but what I was on only required that we try to get interviews done... and I got one done, so that was good.

We passed December 31 in Persona 3 Portable, which opened up the last block of Tartarus and the final push towards finishing the game. Now the guide I'm using says to wait until January 15th to grind out all the new floors and bosses, but I learned my lesson from last week, instead alternating what nights we go into Tartarus. This helps in regards to level grinding, but it's becoming really clear that I'm going to end up using Aigis and Yukari to finish, with the last spot on the team probably being Akihiko.

We also tackled several of the optional boss fights related to Margaret wanting to challenge the P3-Protagonist, and while the ones I've done so far are just harder versions of the full moon shadow fights involving the use of specific party members, which in some ways puts me at a disadvantage. These are the first fights that saw me the use of the 'retry' mechanic. Most certainly these are going to get tougher and more tedious, but we're making a go for it.

No achievements were earned, as the last story related ones are tied to defeating Nyx, and the others are related to doing specific things that we're doing to accomplish during this playthrough that we're not ready for yet.

That said, by my match we should finish Persona 3 Portable on Tuesday's stream since there's not many side things out side of Tartaturs to do beyond the Empress, Aeon and hopefully Strength social links.

For the raid we dropped in on maximilian_dood who was playing the demo for Final Fantasy XIV over on twitch.tv/maximilian_dood

As announced in my Discord, we're bringing back the Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy starting on Saturday. Last time we played the games in that collection was back in December of 2019. We will be using a guide for it, because... why not?

Plan for Wednesday's stream is that it'll start at 9:30 PM Eastern with Iceman and I continuing our adventures in Resident Evil 6, then in the second half, it'll be Fall Guys as I work towards that final achievements.

So on that note we'll see you over on twitch.tv/fredcasden
