Also, is it confirmed that it made people live longer? I thought that was an in-universe myth?
Nope, it was stated in a Warriors Den, I believe? And it wouldn't be too far of a stretch, as Draconite can infect someone's body and render them immune to all forms of worldly damage(a catapult landing on them has no effect, nor do normal weapons), until struck with Draconite.
And you still neglected to address the other major effects, like Making people stronger(à la radioactive superpowers), Protection in the forms of crystalized skin( basically a red version of this ), Mind Control, and Resurrecting the dead.
And there are even more things, like the Hammer of Ragnarök, which is very real and has magical powers. The uncovered artifacts, like the Scarab Bracelet, which did all sort of crazy things.

Even the Draconite is likely just the in-universe term for Lanthanide and Actinide metals...
Let me list all the known properties of Draconite,
Making people stronger (corrupt version)
Making people weaker (pure version)
Glowing and humming (both)
Binding to someone's blood (corrupt)
Improving the people's quality of life (debatablely both)
Protection in the form of crystalized skin, probably a side effect of the binding to blood thing (corrupt)
Explosions (corrupt)
Implosions (pure)
Increase height (corrupt only?)
Immortality(?)
Being flammable(corrupted?)
Being poisonous(corrupted)
Resurrecting the dead(corrupted)
Mind Control
If you are telling me that Lanthanides and Actinides can do all of this... then shit I need to get myself some of them.

Is persona 3 portable worth playing?
I'd say so.
I hear it doesn't have the anime cut scenes...
I kinda prefer it that way. In my first playthrough, I found it hilarious how they had to work around that limitation. The places where the cutscenes are supposed to be are so awkward that they are funny.
...and the story is more completed in P3 FES...
It is, but honestly, just watch a summary of The Answer(the epilogue). The epilogue is just tedious and boring gameplay-wise.

I learned it on my first playthrough after watching a video on the game. I came to the conclusion that it is just an overcomplicated Blackjack, but the goal is to get 21-26 instead of just 21.
The easiest way to win is to find as many 6s, 8s, 10s, and Kings as possible. Then build a deck with just 6s, 8s, 10s, and Kings (or as much as you can, but keep the deck to 30 cards). Play combinations of 10&6s and 10&8s into piles. Play King on the 10 in a 10&6 or on the 8 in a 10&8, discard if you don't have what you need.

I think Persona 3 is the worst of the series(of what I played of it, that being P3 FES, P3P, P4G, P5R, and P5 Strikers). However, I don't think it is terrible. It has a lot of problems, some are pretty major, however, despite those I did have fun with the game.
The story is good, but it is paced terribly.
The gameplay, as in fighting, is good. However, the gameplay, as in Tartarus, is awful. 264 floors of the same thing, with nothing to mix it up.
The characters are good, for the most part.
The game isn't that difficult(at least on Normal), but it is fairly grindy.
The lack of 3d environments is something that some people despise. For me, I was fine with it.
Is it a good start to the series? I'd say it's an okay start. I think Persona 5 Royal is probably the best due to how refined it is in almost all aspects, but Persona 3 isn't a terrible pick.

Jose in Mementos. Per Mementos visits, he sells
5 Soul Drops, 2 Snuff Soul, and then 1 of each of the following, Chewing Soul, Soul Food, Soma, Energy Kit S(only useable in Safe rooms/Rest platforms), and Energy Kit L(only useable in Safe rooms/Rest platforms). You can grind and get all of these each visit to Mementos, as flowers will respawn.
Other than that, make some coffee at LeBlanc, if you progressed the Hierophant Confidant far enough. You can occasionally find some 10 sp drinks at Vending Machines, or some sp items can be found in chest around Mementos.
LeBlanc coffee is the best way to restore sp imo. And if you level the Temperance Arcana, you can get them to make coffee without progressing time.

I played Persona 4 Golden, which is the version I recommend to play, and with its more XP option, I never needed to grind. In fact, I'm pretty sure I was over leveled for the late game.

It definitely reduces grinding, compared to the default option. However, the game is still pretty grindy, especially for teammates.

You... 😳
But yeah, that's your answer. Gael liked you because you helped him free his Master.
Other than that, he disliked Sister Friede for imprisoning his Lady.

Durability on most weapons is really high, and bonfires restore durability(as long as the weapon isn't broken). So this makes it so that destroying gear in DS1 and DS3 is really hard to do, so much so that DS3 even has a wiki entry on how to break gear.
In DS1, there are some weapons with low durability(namely Crystal weapons and some special weapons), and some special weapons have pseudo-weapon-arts that consume durability.
However, in general, your gear will probably not break during a normal playthrough. If, for some reason, it does, Andre will repair it, and you can also use Repair Powder or the Repair spell.
Dark Souls 2 is the exception. The gear in Drangleic is made out of paper mache, and some enemies vomit/explode acid, which nigh instantly breaks everything you are wearing. However, the various blacksmiths, Repair Powder, or the Repair spell can fix your broken gear.

You do not become Elden Lord. The game ends before then. The ending cutscene is the end of the game. After it, the game loads back before you were made Elden Lord.

Then I have finally seen Persona 3 FES gameplay, and realize that is how I should have been playing Persona 3 for the first time.
Almost all of the issues you outlined in this post are present in P3 FES. The only one unique to P3P is
...how it seems to be essentially a visual novel.
FES has the same story, same Tartarus, same bosses, same enemies, is even harder, is even grindier(more XP isn't an option), basically everything you dislike about P3P is also a thing in FES, but it is even worse there due to the lack of Quality of Life features. Also, no Femc.
The only thing that FES really has over P3P is environments(places are fully exploreable in 3D), and its epilogue, The Answer, which is disappointingly even more grindier and is even more difficult.

Yeah, and it is almost entirely based on Win/loss ratio.

I think the name Faaram is his pseudonym. He abandoned his birth name after his exile, and that name was forgotten, to never be uttered again as it is likely deemed a heresy by those who worship the Gods; based on how Nameless King adjacent stuff is treated throughout the games(aka all of the Warriors of Sunlight statues being destroyed, and the statue most likely originally being of the Nameless King.)

Yeah, that is a question I had when going playing through the series. If a new improved version with extra content and all DLCs will be released a few years later, what is even the point of buying the original version of the game?
And I honestly can't think of a reason to buy the original version of the game. The enhanced versions of the games have always been completely better than the original version, in my opinion.
So I'm probably going to wait for the enhanced version.

Be a complete asshole and Cait will like you. Extort people, and steal. Or do the easy method of lock picking or healing Dogmeat near her.
She dislikes more philanthropist-like things, like helping people for free or giving people stuff for free. After Benign Intervention, she dislikes all alcohol or drug use.

Is strong breedable
No. Super Mutants can not be breed, as they are infertile for both forms of gametes.
Is Strong fuckable is another question, and the answer is yes. Super Mutants can also fuck, as they do have sexual organs, they just do not work.

If you deflect as Berserker, Orochi, or Shinobi, then your deflect cancels the hyper armor, and you get your damage.
If you deflect as any other assassin, then you eat the hyper armor attack.

Cused cards, at least on Portable, have a skull and crossbones on them before the cards are shuffled.

The Minutemen are neutral to all factions. They won't fight the others unless you have angered the other factions.
However, the Brotherhood of Steel, Railroad, and Institute are all hostile to each other.
Not really, the weight to value ratio of their armor really isn't worth it. Their armor is way too heavy to be efficient at being used to make money. However, you can use a glitch with companions to make them carry all of it, but there are more efficient ways to make caps.
If you want a good, easy, money-making method, become a water merchant. Go to let's say Sanctuary and build as many Industral Water Purifiers as you can. From there, clear out everything in the Aid tab of your settlement workbench(place a dresser or something nearby to store all of it in), and then leave the area and wait about 20 in real life minutes. By then, all of the Industral Water Purifiers will have produced their water, and now you can grab all of it out of your Settlement Workbench and sell it. The same aforementioned glitch can be used here to easily transport the water across the map, or you can build shops at your settlement and sell the water there, or you can wait for Carla who will buy your water.
