My favorite part of this game was the ending, when the milquetoast lumberjack who refused to open up to me chased my car down out of love and my character basically told them that they’re insane. Clearly not an expectation of the devs that you’d choose that ending, but objectively the funniest.

I had a lot of fun with gotg. A really solid game with a great story and characters that you actually cared about. Dumb action that could have been a little more complex, but it worked!

The idea of this sounds bad initially, but I Love espresso tonics so I can definitely see this working.

I didn’t even know about this route! Sounds easy easier

Agreed, got very bored halfway through stories with how tedious everything was. Would probably be fun with friends but I couldn’t even find online groups consistently.

My final loop was wild. I had everything in place to do it but was freaking out the whole time about the party which had screwed me over many times before. A crazy combination of luck and good timing on my part barely got me through it - incredibly satisfying.

I bought persona 5 royal after listening to the get played podcast rave about it. First playthrough took me about 85 hours, though I know some people it takes 100+ hours with all the extra royal content. It’s a very big game with a lot of stuff!

Immediately jumped into p4 right after and it has really great social links and combat, although generated dungeons are not nearly as fun imo and definitely grindy.

If you like RPGs, any kind of relationship building content, or interesting stories, I think it will hook you. Not to mention the music is incredibly good and the design is very unique.

How?

Have only just recently gotten into persona, but I’m very excited about being able to play 3 as well as 6.

Even when the gameplay is lacking the storylines and social connections more than make up for it!
