Current Events > i beat persona 5. here's my spoiler-free review

(+) Yeah! (+)

Story - 2/10
The story feels like an amateur fan-fiction. All the set pieces, tropes, and reveals were all mundane. The game doesn't accomplish anything new with its cliche JRPG theme of friendship. With that said, there isn't anything memorable from the game aside from the plot twists in the game

Gameplay - 3/10
The biggest problem with the game is the amount of needless padding. You'll spend about 70% of the game listening to dialogue, watching cutscenes, and raising your social links and personal stats. During battle, it's a repetitive process of hiding behind objects, ambushing enemies, and spamming skills that the enemies are weak to. The game isn't challenging at all and holds on to your hand throughout the game.

Replay Value - 0/10
After you're done with the 100 hr game, you'll feel relieved that you can finally uninstall the game and get on with another game.

Soundtrack - 6/10
The soundtrack is highly original with its jazz fusion genre that fits with the atmosphere well. However, the songs aren't very exciting aside from a couple of boss tracks.

Graphics - 10/10
The game is full of eye candy and detail. The explosive UI is a breakthrough from the modern minimalist UI trend. The character portraits are elegant, animations are fun to see, and the environment is colorful and lively.

Final Score - 2/10
Avoid. Whether you're an existing SMT fan or not, the game is not fun and a chore to play through.

Fair but the graphics should also be about 5/10

TC, as you can see your opinion isn't going to be very popular here on a board full of unemployed otakus
