"Pros: Delicious storyline, honors the original Japanese version, excellent music and soundtrack
Cons: Isometric viewpoint controls strangely, difficulty ramp and learning curve is steep, ultimately a slog
I have a motto in life, and that's this: if you aren't enjoying what you do on some level, stop doing it. I don't mean to say that every moment in life should be a box of kittens or all peaches and cream, because we all know that a little adversity and humility go a long way.Most people are more enjoyable to be around if they've had to work at getting what they have, where they're at, and who they've become. If it's all too easy, it's not enjoyable."
It goes without saying that the Shin Megami Tensei subseries, Persona, has become one of the most beloved RPG series in recent memory, but it didn’t start out that way.
Turn-based goodness.
Because it's the newest iteration and they learned from their past games. 2 reasons A-holes
SOUNDTRACK
INTRIGUING MYSTERIES
SOCIAL LINK SYSTEM
FANTASTIC CHARACTERS
STYLIZED ANIME-LIKE GRAPHICS
TRADITIONAL YET DEEP TURN-BASED COMBAT
THE MATURE THEMES
THE DAY TO DAY STRUCTURE
DISTRACTIONS THAT ACTUALLY FEEL MEANINGFUL
SUPERNATURAL ELEMENTS AND BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED CREATURES
Here you go folks.
SOOOOOOOOOO like the last few Persona games then?
It's a shame they didn't just talk about Shin Megami Tensai in general
Twinfinite Writes: With the release of Persona 5 we take a look at some absolutely stunning cosplay from across the long-running RPG series.
Yay for console RPGs making a rebirth on the portable!
I am surprised, though, after the glowing previews - but I guess the old-school RPG isn't for everyone.
Yeah, I think they just didn't change the core grinding gameplay enough to make it accessible for us new-school gamers.
I really wanted to like it! I'm sure a ton of folks will, though.
I'm a sucker for JRPGs so can't wait to play this once I have a PSP soon :)
