Anyone played this game? I played around 2 hours and I am kind of shocked how I've basically just been watching cutscenes this whole time.

I played Persona 3 Portable and absolutely loved it but I don't remember it being like this. Granted, since I played P3 I know it's going to be a 100 hour game and so on, so in the grand scheme of things 2 hours is not much.

But in P3P you could just skim everything quickly since it was basically a VN. Now you have to watch an actual anime and watch 3d cutscenes and stuff before you even get a chance to play. And I really feel like it's not acceptable, just get off work now I watch a bunch of a crappy anime and go to bed without even playing the game? that's what my first taste of this game was like and it just felt bad.

Dragon Quest 11 got going right away, yes it was "slow" in filling out your party and there were lots of cutscenes but at least you get to walk up the mountain on your own and fight some guys. In Persona 5 I have literally only done walking, talking, and about 4 scripted battles.

I guess I'm getting old and losing my patience for this meandering style of game. Already requested a refund so that's that. Persona 3 Portable will probably stay in my memory as a GOAT game but somehow this series is just not for me anymore. And I like anime and I like grinding JRPGs but I don't like whatever is going on here.
