Basically better than IV in almost every way. I love this game, and I already liked IV a lot.
It's not my favorite in the series but it's up there, I don't really understand or agree with the complaints some peopel have about the story, if I have to hear people complain about how the characters are bad and about the Power of Friendship trope again I'm going to get an aneurysm.
And yes you need to play IV first to completely understand this one since it's kinda like a sequel and also a "what if" scenario. Anyway, I really really like this game, it's almost 5 stars but not quite. (EDIT: After thinking a lot about this game after weeks of finishing it, it does deseves 5 stars. Honstly it's on my top 5 SMT games)
