Persona 5 Royal
Persona 5 Royal is a Let's Play on the RTGame channel, first started on October 22nd 2022. The Game is Played on RT's PlayStation 5. In the game he assumes the role of a silent protagonist, here named Johnny Anime. RT has stated that he considers this Let's Play his favourite series of 2022, despite having some issues with the game (chief among them the character of Morgana). Due to the length of the game, RTGame confirmed he will no.t be replaying the game or playing any other Persona games or spinoffs, and thus he attempts to have the most thorough gameplay experience.
RT completed the game on January 29th 2023, after 154 hours and 23 minutes of playtime (although RT claims he left the game running overnight accidently, skewing this number)

Running Jokes
Damn [___], I'll sue!
Formed in the first episode of the series, this running gag has had many different variations. In the opening scene of the game, the "drunk man" who Johnny Anime confronts yells out "Damn brat! I'll sue" after falling. This line stirred amusement among Chat and RT and so it was repeatedly used throughout the game, replacing the word "brat" with whatever fit in the context. The most common occurence of this was as "Damn Cat, I'll sue!", referring to when Morgana prevents the Protagonist from leaving Leblanc. Other versions include "Damn Redditor, I'll sue!".
Brick
[spoilers for ep. 2] One of the most iconic running jokes from the series, originating from episode 2 of the Youtube highlights, during the Madarame arc. When the Phantom thieves decide to break into Madarame's storage room, RT suggested they could just throw a brick through the window. He then proceeded to play a "brick smashing glass" soundeffect during the scene, which spawned the meme. During the scene where Yusuke speaks to Madarames defeated shadow, RT accidently activated the soundeffect again, causing much amusement in chat.
Daneshiro
[spoilers for ep. 3] Equally iconic to Brick, Daneshiro originated in episode 3 of the Youtube highlights, during the Kaneshiro arc. When RT advanced "Sander-san" (Yoshida) confidant to rank 3, he unlocked the "Fundraising" ability, which allows the player to demand more money during negotiations. He then proceeded to use this ability extensively during Kaneshiro's palace, causing Chat much dismay as the battles began dragging on longer due to this. Rather fitting to Kaneshiro's palace, RT began joking about needing more money and to not stop until he gained more capital. These similarities to Kaneshiro lead to Chat giving him the nickname "Daneshiro". RT's thirst for money culminated in Chat writing multiple calling cards in the style of the Phantom Thieves, and, as the "Phantom Thieves of Chat", stealing his heart. RT validated the change of heart by holding an apology speach similar to Madarame's. While this partially stopped his greed Daneshiro continued to tangently gather money, and on January 28th finally achieved his dream of maximum money (9.999.999 yen)
Darts with Akechi
[spoilers for ep, 6] Establishing itself in the 6th episode of the youtube highlights, this running gag originated from RT predicting Akechi's betrayal of the Phantom Thieves fairly early on. While he focused on playing darts with every party member to increase baton pass rank, RT neglected to get Akechi to rank 3, since he knew that his betrayal was imminent. Chat however kept demanding he play darts with Akechi anyways, spawning the gag. Whenever he appeared in the game after his confirmed betrayal, RT multiple times jokingly asked Akechi if he wanted to go play darts, even as he held a gun to Johnny Anime's head.
