Persona 3 Portable Female Protagonist - April Walkthrough
While it’s a bit more interactive than the games that came after it,April in a Persona gameis designed to be a bit ofa hand-holding experienceas it eases you in.
Though newcomers to the series appreciate thein-depth introductionto concepts like Personas, the Velvet Room, shadows, and the like, veterans may find the introduction to be a little slow for the same reason.
April spends a lot of time setting up the story.Not only does it explain the basic premise of P3P and Persona on the whole, but it also introduces you toplenty of social links, the town, your school, SEES and its mission, and more.
