This was way better than I was expecting from what was originally a Vita game. It was fun running around getting to know all the characters in school and town. The fighting isn't anything special, but the enemies are varied enough and dungeons short enough that it doesn't get too stale. My only real complaint is that you can't do …

This was way better than I was expecting from what was originally a Vita game. It was fun running around getting to know all the characters in school and town. The fighting isn't anything special, but the enemies are varied enough and dungeons short enough that it doesn't get too stale. My only real complaint is that you can't do everything in one playtrhough and it's way too long for me to want to play it a second time.

This game isn't bad. I'll even call it good. But I will have to admit, I got too bored and gave up on the story about 2/3rds of the way into it. It is an extremely slow-paced and text-heavy RPG, very much in line with other Falcom titles such as the Legend of Heroes series. And in this case at …

This game isn't bad. I'll even call it good. But I will have to admit, I got too bored and gave up on the story about 2/3rds of the way into it. It is an extremely slow-paced and text-heavy RPG, very much in line with other Falcom titles such as the Legend of Heroes series. And in this case at least the characters just weren't interesting at all, so I wasn't invested in their Persona Lite™ escapades.

The action gameplay itself is fun, but also really repetitive. I tried to make the most of messing with the skills and equipment and whatnot, but in the end nothing I did felt like it made much of a difference. Learn the enemy attack patterns, dodge, then attack. Build up the gauge for a super attack every now and then. It works fine on the Vita for a dungeon run before going to bed. I can't possibly imagine playing this on PS4 -- it wouldn't look that great on the big screen, and would get dull even more quickly I imagine. I will mention though that for a Vita game at least, the city you can explore is pretty big and has a lot of little ways to kill time in amusing ways. Consider this game if you really love RPGs, and want something chill and basic to zone out to for many, many hours.

Played some more of this today. Currently on chapter four. A great game for handheld play, feels right at home on the Vita. I think it works best as a chill and relax sort of game. No need to challenge yourself too much here, everything is pretty straightforward. There's a hundred things you can do during the free time segments. …

No need to challenge yourself too much here, everything is pretty straightforward. There's a hundred things you can do during the free time segments. The story so far is nothing special at all (and proceeds at a very slow pace), but it's a nice game to zone out and play for a bit before going to sleep each night.

I genuinely enjoyed the combat mechanics for this game, which made the dungeons almost fun, even though I normally hate dungeons. Otherwise it felt a bit like a bargain-basement version of Trails of Cold Steel...the characters and story were both less interesting to me than CS's were but I liked both 'okay'. I don't regret buying it but it wasn't …

Otherwise it felt a bit like a bargain-basement version of Trails of Cold Steel...the characters and story were both less interesting to me than CS's were but I liked both 'okay'. I don't regret buying it but it wasn't anything to get excited about, though it was really unique for me to actually like the fighting in a game, for once.
