90 hours in and I just entered my last dungeon, I presumeMementos?
Clear!
Sorry for reviving an old thread, but I was seeing if a Friday the 13th The Game thread had ever had a thread created and I stumbled upon this and felt like talking Persona.
Firstly, Persona 4 is the first game I played in the series and it is a phenomenal game. It’s, of course, my favorite. At least so far. So Mr. Joe, now that you’ve dove into the series you should give 4 a go if you have a chance or the means. I played a little of 3 and loved what I played. If Atlus would actually release the dang game on a modern console, I’d complete it.
All that being said, I couldn’t really get as into 5. When I did start finally getting into it the difficulty seemed to spike and I got stuck in a certain area. I ended up giving up and haven’t played since. However, if it does indeed release on Switch as rumored I will give it another go. I was so hyped for the game after 4 immediately entered one of my top favorite games of all time. I feel like with the Switch I am more patient with games because I don’t have to be constrained in a room playing T-Rex style.
Where are you stuck? I got stuck a bit in Okumura's palace on the 3 consecutive mini bosses, but I powered through it by trying it over repeatedly. It was worth it. The end of the game is where the real magic happens, much like 4. 4 was my first as well - followed by 3, 2:IS, and then 5, which came out after I played the others. I felt like 5 was the weaker link; not that it's not a great game - but when compared to the other Persona games, I feel like many of the character interactions come off as a tad forced and corny but not in a realistic way. 3, 4, and 5 were all different flavors/twists on a similar underlying philosophy, and personally I would prefer them to end the series here while it's still good. I love these games.
Also coming to PS5 & Steam.Persona 3 Portable, Persona 4 Golden and Persona 5 Royal are coming to Xbox Series S|X and PC via Game Pass. P5 will release first on October 21 this year, with P3 and P4 coming next year.
