Never played a Persona.

I played SMTV, and thought it was pretty good. Fun combat system, collecting monsters was neat.

id recommend playing persona 3 over 5

as 5 is way to bloated with redundant dialogue

it's alright. it's pretty transparently a power fantasy game with the most perfectest strongest extra specialist main character, who gets all the women, beats all the bad guys singlehandedly, and is the best at everything

Peaksona 4 is better. the interpersonal relationships all feel way more real. the group dynamics feel like actual group dynamics. and the writing is a lot punchier

It's a game. A lot of people here slobber all over the Persona series. You might like it.

The calendar system is awful and drove me away, Metaphor improved on it significantly so play that instead.

can confirm the battle theme for metaphor is great

anyway, for persona 5, its amazing, i remmeber no lifign the vanilla version when it came out till completion, its very aesthetic, the songs are bangers, and its just plan fun, theres lots of dialogue, but all the pros it has very much outweighs it

its good, and Yusuke is best

Good choice.

I liked Metaphor a lot more than P5. Especially coming from SMTV.

I really liked Persona 5 Royal when I played it, but I find that I don't want to return to it. I know I wouldn't enjoy it as much the second time around.

Gameplay is simple yet fun, the plot is interesting that it will grab your attention the entire way through (with the exception of 1 of the game's in game months, but its not too long a period), and the music is great.

At this point just play royal instead of the base persona 5 game.

How about a little sample of the music, then? No spoilers beyond the fact that these songs exist.

I think Persona 5 Royal has the best soundtrack in video games ever. Definitely S tier.

Its just fun and honestly somewhat challenging if you go in blind. awesome music to the point I bought the soundtrack.

metaphor is up there, the battle music at the beginning kinda hit me wrong, but the more you hear it, the more it pulled me in.

Honestly I always thought Last Surprise was overrated. I mean it's not bad, I just never got the obsession over it. I think Take Over is better.

persona 5 felt like a bloated overproduced rehash of persona 3 and 4 to me, i lost interest pretty quickly

i would recommend persona 3 (not reload, either og/fes/portable). i think it's the most interesting of the newer persona games

persona 4 is also good. some additions in golden kill the vibe slightly imo but i'd still pick it over 5 or 3r
