This is a solid game, gameplay is more challenging than P2IS but also more annoying with the more archaic dungeon exploration and status being super annoying. Boss fights were fun though. Range is an interesting mechanic but I feel like it was annoying more often than not. Certain character's weapons were useless sometimes for many fights.

Story was overall good, slow at the beginning and the Kandori stuff idc about. But all the Maki stuff is really good. She's a great character I enjoy her dynamic with the MC who is pretty alright for a silent persona protag. Mark and Nanjo were good too, though they shined more in the late game. I chose Elly as my 5th member and I liked her a lot.

Some of the "dramatic decisions" to get the good ending were stupidly obvious, don't think they need to be there. Same feeling about the bad ending, it just seems, well bad. Don't get the Maki content and you just fight Kandori. Kinda lame.

Art, designs and animation were good, definitely nice for a remake. Voice acting was alright too.

Overall, good game with a lot of first in a series issues that get refined later on. Not bad though.
