Picked this back up after about 2.5 years away and am finally hooked. I love that every enemy encounter offers the choice to battle or contact (to obtain cards needed to summon personas) and that both options offer depth and require strategy. And if you're just wanting to grind or search for specific enemies/cards, the auto-battle makes it a breeze. …

I love that every enemy encounter offers the choice to battle or contact (to obtain cards needed to summon personas) and that both options offer depth and require strategy. And if you're just wanting to grind or search for specific enemies/cards, the auto-battle makes it a breeze. These small quality-of-life tweaks from Persona 1 cumulatively make a big impact, as does the switch from first-person bland dungeons to isometric ones with more character. Will come back with a fuller review once I'm done, but so far this is a noticeable step up from a game (Persona 1) I enjoyed with quite a few caveats.

Since I finished school last month, I have been trying to play catch up with games (and other media). Now that I played a couple short games to get me back in the mode, I just completed the first boss battle (out of six total). It really is a fun game with a great story, but I am not sure if I will do the side quests in Climax Theater as well.

Despite falling through the pit in Mt. Iwato endless times, this game is very enjoyable so far. I have been granted ultimate Personas from Philemon, but I suspect I am only about halfway through as there should be another party member joining eventually and the plot only seems to be revealing the first chunk of the story.
It definitely feels …

It definitely feels more modernized compared to the first Persona; however, there were certain complexities and challenges I liked from Persona 1 that they did away in Persona 2 (e.g., gathering cards and creating a Persona in 2 is really simple, but for how easy the fights are, you almost don't need to make more; in Persona 1, you really had to gather many different types of cards to see what you create and find who matches best because the fights do require better Personas).
