dium Posted March 30, 2017 Hearing Rob talk about Persona was frustrating (and great), because I similarly don't get into JRPGs very often, and I similarly feel tempted by the new Persona game. And, also similarly, I don't really have time in my leisure schedule to add a big long story game, but when I hear enthusiasm like this from someone with similar tastes I may pull the trigger anyway. I have played some Persona 3, and had mixed feelings about it, so reminding myself of that experience may save me my time and money once P5 is out. I really enjoyed everything in that game that wasn't dungeon crawling (the same sort of high school life management stuff Rob was talking about in Persona 4), but then you had to go into "The Tartarus" and suddenly I got very bored. Also, things got way uglier. It was like playing two different games, and only one was the game I actually wanted to play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
