Board 8 > Anything to know before going into Persona 5 Royal?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I played the original before it came up, but I want to play Royal before I get to Strikers. But I was wondering, with all the new things added in, is there anything I should do/prioritize differently? Akechi now has a "real" S.Link right?

I dunno if it matters, but you can play Strikers without playing Royal at all because nothing from Royal is in Strikers if I recall

This is basically the only thing that I'd think a person who played the original needs to know before going into Royal.

I used a spoiler free guide since I never played the original and the only things that stood out was to max the new S ranks as much as possible. Theres a few dates where it locks and you can't advance their ranks until later in the story, but just max the guidance counselor, gymnast, and Akechi whenever available (names escape me) and otherwise play like a normal true ending

Well I want to play Royal anyway, and in that case playing it as kind of a refresher before Strikes is another good reason.

Yeah here is basically all you need to know without spoiling, but I'll keep it spoiler tagged just incase.

• Achieve Confidant rank 9 with Takuto Maruki by November 18.
• Achieve Confidant rank 8 with Goro Akechi by November 24.
• Achieve Confidant rank 5 with Kasumi Yoshizawa by December 18.
• Refuse all offers presented by the antagonist in the third semester.

other than that play through it like you're going for true ending in P5
