Yes, yes, I know that we are busy trying to be justice heroes and stuff...

But first I'm gonna play another twenty rounds of Tycoon.

I really, really don't like the Social Link system at all.

While I'm genuinely enjoying the main plot and the dungeon crawling part of the game, the free time sections are severely lacking on interest for me, mainly because I'm in a continuous "what would be the best thing to do today what if I just waste a day and then I regret it" state and that's already my real life, but I'm penalized if I ignore it.

The locations are all beautiful, tho.

I blame a life playing Pokémon for how emotionally stressed I get when I have to fuse Personas. WHAT ARE THE RIGHT CHOICES WILL I MISS THEM IF I FUSE THEM WILL THEY REMEMBER ME ONCE THEY'RE GONE.

I have known Ryuji for like 10 hours and if something happened to him I'd use a Revivadrin I guess but the point is I love that idiot.

8 hours in, first palace completed, I'm really liking it!

My only problem right now is that the free time sections stress me a lot. TOO MANY OPTIONS HOW DO I SPENT TIME IN A PRODUCTIVE MANNER I PLAY GAMES TO NOT HAVE TO TAKE PRODUCTIVE DECISIONS

Bought this two weeks ago so it's just sitting in the cabinet waiting. Taking some serious willpower to focus on finishing other games first.

Ok so I played Persona 5 and loved it, it is one of my favorite games of all time. Persona 5 Royal was coincidentally releasing a few days after I finished the vanilla Persona 5, and I didn't want to spend 60 dollars, so I looked up spoilers. Honestly from what I read of it I think I still perfer the vanilla Persona 5, but Royal has a higher rating. What do you guys think?

Finished the Kamoshida palace, pacing of the game is ok-ish. The way I'm filling up my spare time is starting to feel repetitive, I should probably invest some more time in the game soon.

Love the style, music and aesthetic!

I just reached the third palace. My first time playing the game, and so far I'm loving. But man, I already have 70 hours in game and I feel that still there is so much to do. This game is really massive.

Between 2nd and 3rd palaces, all the QOL changes are greatly appreciated, story changes for Royal are nice surprises.

Right now I'm really questioning my decision making abilities as I chose to buy this game with only a marginal amount of new content versus just replaying the original...but I honestly think that ammo reloading after every fight might have been worth the $60 on its own.
