3's S. Links feel kind of rough to go back to after playing 4 and 5 (plus not having S. Links for the guys unless you're playing FeMC in P3P is pretty bad, not to mention having no non-romance options for the girls).
I'd take 4 for the party members and 5 for the non-party members, I think. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

5 > 3 > 4

easily 5
4 has the best party members, but 5 is pretty close and the non-party members has 5 leagues ahead of 3 and 4 --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Your party members ranking is backwards. 4 > 5 > 3, no question.
Non-party members: 5 > 4 > 3 Romances: 5 > 4 > 3 I haven't played P3P FeMC so that may taint my views, but there's still how Junpei and Akihiko were never social links in the original game (and Fuuka's is boring too - she deserved better). Yukari, Mitsuru, and AIGIS are the best links in 3, but most of 3's NPCs are complete rubbish, so 3 is the worst easily. I'd put 4 and 5 as even because of how good 4's party member links are .It's a shame they couldn't extend the same courtesy to the NPC S-Links... or replicate that with 5's party members. It's weird how in 4, the best social links are the party members, whereas in 5, the best social links are non-party members. --- BlueCrystalTear | GNT BB4 Winner, Winner Chicken Dinner #FearTheDeer | [For lease] | ((FREE HUGS)) | You're living your own life.

I think 3 has high highs and low lows (yikes at the Moon SL). But 4 (at least for the non-party members) had the most 'whatever' line up.

4 at least had the Dojimas, which are both top tier S. Links

3 and 4 both have a couple of top tier ones each (Akinari, Aigis, both Dojimas), but also have several stinkers each. 4 probably wins out between the two on having a bit better party member links overall.
Meanwhile, the average quality in 5 is much higher and more consistent, and the top tier ones (e.g Yoshida, Iwai as my two favorites in particular) are very, very good. ... Copied to Clipboard!

P3P makes things better for non-party members. Getting rid of classic Moon helps a lot. Plus Sun's always been one of the best S-Links in the series (still my #1, probably).
Futaba's is great as far as P5 party members go. Ann's is especially weak though. --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'll add that despite P4 having generally good party member S-Links, Teddie has the worst party member S-Link in the series. P5's worst S-Link is better than the worst few (Devil, Temperance, Star, Empress) in P4 IMO.

I don't even think much of Teddie's because it's an auto-complete one, but I also don't recall it being that terrible.

How good Teddie's S-Link is depends on if you consider Teddie's whole Pinocchio-esque existence compelling.

a while back I had an idea to rank and review all of the social links. I abandoned it about halfway through. Anyway, the answer is overall 5, though Persona 4 has perhaps the top 3 on lock.

Kanji, Adachi, and Nanako I'd guess? I like Marie's a lot too, since it's mostly the cast hanging out shooting the shit, but I know a lot of people dislike her content.

Voted 3. It honestly has some of the worst social links overall but I also can't overlook how 4 and 5 torpedo party member character development by putting a half-assed version of half of their character arc behind the optional social links.
I also do really like a few of the ones in 3, though that's probably true for all the games. --- I didn't do guru this year but azuarc can be in my sig anyways. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I have not replayed 4 in ages but I have a pretty low opinion of most of the party member links in that one since besides a few they felt redundant. 5 at least solved that problem by having them be mostly unrelated to the character introduction, although they aren't all winners. Meanwhile 5 easily takes non-party links, so I gotta hand it to 5.
3 is weird but including P3P nudges it above 4. 5 > P3+P > 4 > 3FES --- I definitely did not forget to put the 2020 GOTD Guru winner, azuarc in my sig! ... Copied to Clipboard!

The auto-advance links are also pretty weak. 3 again has the right idea here by simply having hard stops in certain links until you have progressed far enough in the story. I can't remember if P5 does this with party members, but I know that Sojiro's did and was all the better for it. --- I definitely did not forget to put the 2020 GOTD Guru winner, azuarc in my sig! ...

I don't mind character development being in Social Links - the problem is that their dialogue in the main plot never reflects that development, which keeps all the characters in some weird half-limbo.

I feel like Golden tried to fix that a bit with its extra content toward the end, but yeah, it's not totally ideal. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
