Persona 5 has a Battle Assist Mode.

Hit the R1 button in battle to activate Battle Assist Mode, where you will automatically attack enemy weak points.

How do System Warriors feel about having an easy switch in Persona 5?

Link here.

Doesn't bother me. It's never been a problem to avoid the "easy switch" in games whether it's The Last of Us, Super Mario 3D World, and now this.

I'd be fine if you had to first get the knowledge of that weakness first (from a scan or you guessed its weakness) for it to even work in the first place.

It's optional and not really worth it. Takes the fun away from the game. So I won't use it once I get the game. I like to take full control of the characters and just use a few during the dungeons anyway.

Persona is for babies confirmed!

Is it like the rush mode in 3 and 4?

Honestly, things like this and the "cheats" in the re-releases of the Final Fantasy games are great. Especially on a second/third or more playthrough, where the grinding gets to ya.

Use 'em or don't. All good.

There seems to be more to it than just auto melee if it targets weak points. I'm thinking maybe auto magic for easy knock downs and extra turns. Not sure though.

This is how you summon him. I don't know how he found this. @charizard1605

Not worried, from past games battles are a bit more complex than just hitting weak points, you sometimes use them strategically to to get them down then do an all out attack, but they waste SP so it's not always smart to use a skill attacks, you have to find patterns that allow you to keep dungeon crawling, curious though what kind of system they'll have in this game, Persona Q had a replenishing SP system but it was as limited to the amounts set by the secondary persona cards characters had equipped, both Persona 3 and 4 were pretty similar but many of the SMT and subseries each have little unique twists on the battle systems and I'm curious here if they'll shake it up in any more meaningful way. Many of the SMT games too have had an auto-attack mode but it was limited to physical attacks.

Curious what they'll have here, if they'll have shadow/persona recruiting, alignments (law/neutral/chaos, light/neutral/dark), or if they'll change up how weakness works, if it allows for HP/SP free attacks, all that stuff.

Will probably use when I'm too lazy to grind against weak enemies. Did the same in P4G with the triangle button.

As long as it can be avoided, it doesn't bother me.

Persona? Never heard of it.

They made Persona for the Final Fantasy kids obviously.

It's fine. The white tanuki suit doesn't ruin mario, and easy modes have been around for ages, for those of us that aren't Ninja Dogs, it'll be a non-issue.

I'll ignore it.

I was wondering when you'd get around to this thread. :P

Yeah, that's what I've always done about these kinds of things. I just wonder why devs constantly feel the need to try to make games easier all the time.

Games having easy mode don't really lesser the value for me, you can summon help in souls game for the bosses you can't beat, doesn't make the games worse for me.

While I personally like the challenge and pretty much always play the games on highest difficulty I can totally understand that's not what everyone prefers, some prefer to enjoy the other aspects of the game and that's fine by me. These settings just allow more players to enjoy the game in their preferred way.

Ugh, filthy casual Weeboo game. Now even easier? Wtf?

On a serious note, P5 looks bad fucking ass and adding the feature doesn't bother me. I just won't use it.

Do remember, the game is made for a Japanese audience that is consistently moving away from longer, engaging high end console games. It makes sense that there would be some concessions made to those people, then.

I just play those games to collect and fuse cards, so I don't care.

So?

1. Its optional. And optional easy modes did not prevent Conquest from being an amazing game. Nor did it ruin Mario.

2. Knowing previous atlus games, predicting the weak spots will come natural to a 5 year old.

yeah cause looking at an enemy for their weakness then manually finding that weakness through your skills requires so much brainpower...I guess you guys all get up off the couch to switch tv channels instead of using the remote?

"Persona is for babies confirmed!"

Were the other games for adult babies like yourself?
