Persona 5 is astounding. Each one of its elements - the writing, the music, the combat, the damn menus for crying out loud - is precisely tuned to work with everything else to create an experience that's perfectly realized from the moment it begins.
Since its release in 2016, the "Persona 5" series has won numerous game awards around the world and received enthusiastic support from everyone, with cumulative sales of over 10 million units worldwide.
In the world of video games, there’s no genre quite as notoriously difficult to get into as the Turn-Based RPG. Lets review a few RPGs you can play if you’ve tried the biggest and best in turn-based combat and never found it appealing.
Sea of stars while seeming pretty good so far doesn't belong in the top rpg discussion. There's way better ones. I'd tell them to play star ocean 2. One of the best non turn based rpgs ever. It has everything.
The Legend of Dragoon, Legend of Legaia, or the Shadow Hearts games has decent enjoyable turn based combat system.
The Persona 5 sub-series has surpassed 9 million copies worldwide and now contributes to over 50% of the series' total sales.
Would be plus+1 more if they'd settle the fk down and stop re releasing it. I'm waiting on the definitive one over here
yet another perfect score. This is turning out to be another masterpiece. Sitting at 94 metacritic currently.
What a year for games
Been quite a while since I played a jrpg. Ni No was the last... This or HZD will be my next buy.
Its this game then we can finally take a rest from all these big releases...until e3 everyone, so long
Nice review. Great summary. Good to see some quirky humour.
'Other than that, Persona 5 is simply phenomenal. The voice acting is outstanding, the music is genius, the art style is so slick it'll raise your personal coolness level just from being in close proximity to it. Playing Persona 5 will make your hair glossier, increase your vocal range by an octave and add 7.32 years to your overall life expectancy. Play it enough times and you'll likely not only be able to levitate but also make a perfect omelette while in midair. It's that good.'
