i compared my progress to a FAQ and I'm behind on a bunch for where i am

yeah, the FAQs on here assume you'll have a certain character at a certain level on a certain day. it's weird.
just go it at your own pace.

You really shouldn't be comparing your progress with a faq in terms of social links (I'm assuming it's a max s-link guide). Part of the fun with Persona is doing your own thing and hanging out with who you want/doing what you want for your first playthrough.

If it's your first Persona game you're probably not going to max all your Confidants / Social Links and that's okay. The original Social Link system was designed for players to spend time with the characters they enjoy spending time with the most, not just maxing everything. In New Game+ it is a lot easier to max though if you want to and once you play one Persona game and understand a lot of the general time management tricks it's a lot easier.

But if you're playing Royal, aren't you locked out of the true ending if you don't have certain dudes maxed out?

The game is a long ass game and I know I don't wanna go through a 2nd playthrough right after beating it the first time.

yeah, but it's pretty easy to max out those characters.

I played 4 on PS2, I guess that one actually had the occasional philosophy reference

What Personas should I try to fuse in 5?
