Fun tactics game! Gets a little repetitive after a while, but it's charming.

Liked this a lot more than Vesperia, but I'm not sure if these games are for me. Combat is fun toward the beginning but feels more and more like a chore. A lot of enemies feel like HP sponges, and the while the special attacks look cool, they don't feel satisfying to trigger.
Story is generally alright! Introduces some fun stuff into a generally cliche anime rebellion plotline. I really liked the comic panel cut scenes, they helped to make exposition a little more dynamic, and hid the fact that the in game models aren't all that expressive.

Fun little survival game! Nice quality of life settings, and has an entertaining story and sense of humor.

I wish this was a little more "Stardew Valley" and a little less "run of the mill survival game"
played the first three or four missions and had a good time! level design is fairly confusing, but the weapons are satisfying and the aesthetics are top notch
there's even a button that lets you threaten heretics and worship the God Emperor!

Fantastic. I think I like this one a little bit more than 7.
The story, especially in the final chapters, kind of doesn't work for me, but the everything else felt like an improvement on 7.
Not sure if this has my favorite RPG combat system, but it's definitely a contender.

This was great! Loved the new cast, Yagami's fun, and the main mystery and plot were great! Some pacing issues in the first half or so of the game, but the final 4 chapters whip.
The detective mechanics were fun, and I like just walking around Kamurocho so the tailing bits weren't too bad. The only big knock I would give the game is the side mini games are kind of boring and not fun. Drone racing blows!
Very excited to dig into Lost Judgement later

audio sounds like it's coming through a Wii speaker, and it crashes every 30 - 40 minutes, and occasionally the game fast travels me into a rock
pretty dull! using the pals in fights mostly sucks! mildly amusing just for the novelty of injecting Pokemon into a survival crafting game.

This was a fun, nice time! The crafting based RPG system was interesting, material collecting was boring, but never felt too bad. I'm not a big fan of ATB, I prefer to be able to pause and think for a while on a turn, but it was still solid!

Incredible game, every system interacts wonderfully and the game seems to predict and accommodate a huge number of possible interactions and situations.
My only gripe is that I wish the writing was just as responsive to different points of view or demeanors. I felt like all of the possible responses and dialogue options were kind of dull, exempting the class and race specific ones. The character creator doesn't do a particularly good job of making the non-Origin characters fell like they had a place in the world.

Finished the stories in the first two zones, played about 20 hours.
This was good! Wish there was a bit more narrative to latch on to, or that the random companion events and stories were a bit more interesting.
Combat is simple and fun, despite there not being a ton of options, it still feels like there are tactically significant choices to make.
Survival systems are interesting! Can definitely see how it could be stressful if you're running thin, but once you hit a certain level of money everything becomes easy. Wow. Deep.

Game crashed and I lost about about a months worth of social links and dungeon progress in the second to last dungeon, so I might just give up and not finish this, but I had a lot of fun with this!
Main cast is great and all the corny slice of life stuff is fun!
Hard mode was actually a challenge, especially compared to P5, which was great. There was just enough friction to keep me from just autopiloting through fights.
Story was great, loved the murder mystery. The framing of everything as TV was better than P5's phone app stuff.
Saw the twist coming, but felt like it was executed well! Everything after October/November was just great.
Most of the non-party social links were boring, but I loved Nanako and Dojima's.
