Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 FES - Walkthrough

If you've played the original Persona 3 game, then chances are you've played through The Journey, as it is simply the original P3 game with some more additions. Note that this walkthrough will not be a detailed account of every single day in the game, since there are quite a high number of days where there are no forced events and you're free to do what you want. Due to this, most of the walkthrough will simply consist of mandatory events.

The walkthrough will be split up into the various months, starting with April. Since school is a major emphasis of the game, you will be spending a lot of time there. This means that you will be witnessing a lot of lectures, which are split into two different types: ones where you are given the option to either stay awake (increase in Academics; marked as LECTURE in the walkthrough) or doze off (75% to improve your condition), and ones where you have to answer a question (increase in Charm if you answer correctly; only the correct answer will be listed).

Whenever you start a new game, you'll be asked if you want to know what was added to the game that wasn't in the original. After this, you'll be asked to choose a difficulty setting. EASY is well, easy. You do more damage than normal and should you die, you'll have 10 chances to keep going; you have 10 Plume of Dusks that will automatically revive all characters and refill their HP/SP to max should you die. NORMAL is the basic setting, where everything is on an even level, with no advantages to either you or the enemies. HARD is for the people who have a good understanding of the game's concepts, plus there are some surprises thrown in to make it live up to its name. You take more damage, have a lower chance to escape during battle, Enemy Advantage chance is higher and the cost to summon a Persona from the Compendium is four times the base cost (Orpheus would cost 9,200 yen to bring out instead of 2,300).
