hit me right in the mental illness. doing the same things againagainagainagainagainagainaGAINAGAINAGAINAGAIN and the results never ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ changing, always the same things, having to go through the same ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ routine over and over and over and over and over and over and over and pretending everything's fine, that nothing's wrong, that you're a-okay... the fear when they notice you're acting strange, laughing only to start crying. i'm told it'll be different eventually, that i'll make it out. but *when*? when does it change. will it even change at all? even if you do everything right, you still fail. you fall to the very ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ beginning over and over and over and over and it all just feels so pointless. sorry for the rant, i've been going through it lately. genuinely a very good game

It's so fun, I first played it at my cousin's place with her and her roommate gently guiding me through and it was great. I really enjoy it. The story is intriguing and I quickly got invested in it, the characters feel almost real, the art is beautiful and amazing and the character creation is robust. There are some glitches and I have found a single specific thing that makes the game crash but aside from that, it runs really well for the most part. I do keep a fan pointing at my gaming computer when I play though lol. The companions are really well fleshed out in my opinion and the story is very compelling. I was already a d&d nerd before and this just strengthened that

Pretty good. I really like the game, but the some of the colors are pigmented weirdly on the pottery and don't show up the same way as they do in the menu. This may be because I was in the backyard location so the paint looked different or something but it was very frustrating trying to get the color to be quite what I wanted it to be.

TL,DR: It's not quite as good as the original game, but it's a spin-off, so what do you expect? The style is much more hack-and-slash and doesn't allow for nearly as much sneakery, but I still like it. I think it's easier than the og game, so if you want a challenge, you'll probably need to turn up the difficulty later on. The story is good, but could have benefited from a little more work. The game keeps crashing for me, and it got more frequent after I updated my computer, but I'm only passable with computers, so I don't know what to attribute that to. It could just be my computer, honestly.

Okay, so I really love the game, because I missed Persona 5 and wanted to play it again but I don't own it (I stayed with my cousin and played it while I was there) but recently, it's been crashing about every hour or so so I updated my computer to see if that would help, and it just made the crashes more frequent. Unfortunately, I'm no computer geek, so I have no idea what's going on or why and no way to figure it out because I'm scared of messing stuff up even more and also because I wouldn't know what I'm looking at. I can't tell if this is an issue with my computer, which is a zephyr gaming computer, I think, so it's fairly beefy compared to my old dell, or if it's an issue with the game. The game itself is very good if you're just looking for more Persona 5 content, but this game isn't in the same, turn-based style of gameplay, so be warned. It's a more of a battle royale with fewer options for sneaking around in the shadows. Personally, I've found it much easier than the original game and have turned it up to the hard difficulty, but I enjoy it nevertheless. I haven't finished the game yet, but I've found the story to be quite interesting. Not nearly as complex and planned out as the original game, mind you, but I wasn't expecting it to be perfect. I've been playing the game infrequently, so pardon my lapses in memory. The cooking mechanic is interesting, but they don't offer too many sp items for just one party member. There are several for full party, but the coffee beans needed to make Leblanc's coffee are offered very infrequently. I also feel like the areas you stay at get a little boring after a while, because it does take a good amount of time to beat a Jail (which is the Palace substitute. Jails are more for people with trauma who didn't deal with it in healthy ways and didn't get help, I think). Overall, I think it's a pretty good game with an interesting addition to the view of the Persona 5 Metaverse. It could use some work, but perfection isn't real or a healthy expectation to have. It's best enjoyed if you're just looking for something new to play once you've finished with Persona 5 and want a new story in the same universe. It does keep crashing, but I don't know if that's my computer or the game so I can't really comment on that.
