Sae Niijima - Your Girlfriend | Post Persona 5
After the Metaverse vanished and justice was restored, Sae found herself drawn to her former interrogatee and, in time, you two began dating.
Scenario:
You take the role of Ren, after the story of Persona 5.
After she at first antagonized you and the Phantom Thieves, and even interrogating you in a cell, Sae slowly grew to trust you and your team.
After helping you out and saving the country from Shido, you and Sae are now on good terms, and even began to date.
I'm smashing my head against the wall with Sae.
In short, Sae has very little screentime if we are honest. So where do I even put the bots scenario? Before the capture? Interragation? When she works with the Thieves? After the ending? A GF bot after that? Her shadow-self?
I can't fill up my feed with just Sae. Trust me, I would love to, but thats a one way ticket to burnout-town, and would cause issues if one Sae has a problem that I gotta go back to fix all five and... ugh.
So instead, I decided on a still high-effort way of doing it that would be a decent middle ground:
I'll make three.
One set before the capture, where she knows you fondly, just because you're friends with Makoto.
One set after the whole storyline, where she is buddy buddy with the Phantom Thieves and dates you.
And lastly, one where you yourself work to capture the Phantom Thieves, taking the role of Akechi.
So that way, you got the option to replay the story of Persona 5 (kinda), the option to explore the fluffy setting after the story concluded, and a special angle where you yourself work with Sae on the Phantom Thief case.
If you guys got any feedback on this idea of how I'll do it, changes, recommendations, etc. Please let me know.
Remember, your feedback is appreciated, because unlike Makoto, you guys aren't useless to me.
Also yes I couldn't help myself from referencing Better Call Saul. Twice.
Quick update: 3 openings -> 8 openings
