Persona 3 Review
The story of Persona 3 is about the main character, Minato Arisato, I mean Makoto Yuki, whatever you want to call him. moves into a dorm house where he shortly becomes a member of S.E.E.S, a group of Persona users, the story deepens as the game goes on and characters develop in the way good characters should, they feel like real people and that's something I like, my only problem with the story is that it's pacing feels slow as you have to wait for a full moon to progress through the story which is a pain.
The gameplay is like that of Persona 4, the game that came after this one, you have a team of up to four characters, but you also have to play through life sim style of game during the day in order to upgrade social links that make your personas stronger, my only problem with the gameplay is in the RPG part, if you die, it's game over even if your other party members are fine and dandy which granted the other Persona games did this but that's not an excuse.
The soundtrack is my favorite part of the game, it's a JPop/JRap mix and it's done so well, from the battle theme "Mass Destruction" to the Overworld theme "When The Moon's Reaching Stars" which is my favorite song in the whole game, I've got myself humming many of these songs and for good reasons.
in short, this game is worth your money despite the few flaws it has, these flaws are fixed in the sequel Persona 4, which I've already reviewed, but Persona 3 still holds up as a good game that all RPG fans should experience.
