absolute peak fiction, put this on pc already!!!

Probably the greatest game ever made. how is this allowed to exist.

simultaneously overhated but also genuinely really bad (its peak)

the world has moved on from mecha yaoi far too quickly...

Started playing as a very happy fromsoft fan.
Left as an even happier Drakengard fan.
Incredible game.

I've had this game for years now, it's awful how long it's taken me to finally force myself to finish it, and it was all worth it. Probably the best game Atlus have ever made, the themes and characters are so fantastic and compelling, I can't gush enough about the game. Left me in a mess of tears, thank you Atlus.

With the game having so much going against it, from an admittedly strange art style change to much different gameplay, as well as P3Reload coming so soon. Despite this, the game is still great and the style grew on me hugely. The gameplay is great, albeit maybe slightly too easy (a recurring issue with persona 5, apparently) as well as the story dropping off towards the end, but for the vast majority of the game keeps up the momentum with two great new characters, Toshiro especially is fantastic.
Definitely worth playing, don't sleep on it.
