Persona 5 Review (Spoiler-Free) 2
Sometimes there are certain series' of games that you carry with you through your lifetime. When I was very young, that series was Mario. When I was a teen, they were the id Tech 3 games (Quake 3, Jedi Outcast, STV: Elite Force, etc). When I was a young adult, it was Persona. Persona 3 hit when I was in high school, and I can look back and say it caught me at just the right time. I was enraptured by its dark story, cool characters, and Pokemon-meets-life-simulator style gameplay. Fast forward a ...

One of the greatest games to somehow be less than the sum of it's parts 0
I love Persona 5... I think. One thing I'm certain of is that this title was, for years, the one game I was most anticipating, so to say hopes were high is gross understatement. And maybe that's the issue right there, my dreams were too grand to ever be reasonable. There was a popular formula that the series had adopted since the third game that Persona 5 was always going to stick heavily to, and stick it did. There was also room for growth and change in this template, and there were changes and...

Heartbreakers 0
The Phantom Thieves are out to steal the hearts and minds of the people of Japan in a attempt to stave off certain ruin. So it is rather unfortunate that the only thing this band of thieves succeed in stealing is your time.It's hard to talk about Persona 5 as a unified piece of entertainment. Part of this is due to the games length, (I clocked it in at a hundred and seventy hours). It is also due to how deep and varied the multitude of game mechanics are in the game. It really does feel like fou...

Persona 5 Easily Cements Itself as one of the Best of its Kind 1
I think it's important to say that I fucking love Persona. Persona 3 and 4 are up there with some of my favorite games ever, and I think that's important in order to contextualize my state of mind going into this game. Normally I genuinely try to level my expectations for any game I play, but with Persona 5 that was impossible. My longstanding relationship with the series coupled with being in love with every trailer shown for this game shot my expectations through the roof. And believe me when...

Do not go gentle into that good night 0
Quantity certainly does not equate to Quality. But videogames are one of the most expensive hobbies to have; so I can see the consumer’s argument of getting a “bang for your buck”. Game developers and publishers know this and, sometimes, the final product loses some quality due to the diluting of the core gameplay loop with repetitive and meaningless modes and activities.I played Persona 5 for 133 hours and 8 minutes. That’s definitely a “bang”. For 60 euros,...
