GB: "Though it is generally considered a cult classic, the Persona series has gone from strength to strength. Though early entries in the series failed to garner much acclaim outside of Japan, it seems that critics of all nations can hardly throw enough praise at Persona 3 and 4. With it's traditional JRPG mechanics unique blend of social sim elements, it's easy to see why the games are so highly praised. Now that Atlus have nearly finished bringing Catherine over to America, their first foray into our current generation of hardware is complete. We can only hope that they will now turn their attention towards Persona 5 but, should they do this, how could they improve upon previous games in the series?"
Since its release in 2016, the "Persona 5" series has won numerous game awards around the world and received enthusiastic support from everyone, with cumulative sales of over 10 million units worldwide.
In the world of video games, there’s no genre quite as notoriously difficult to get into as the Turn-Based RPG. Lets review a few RPGs you can play if you’ve tried the biggest and best in turn-based combat and never found it appealing.
Sea of stars while seeming pretty good so far doesn't belong in the top rpg discussion. There's way better ones. I'd tell them to play star ocean 2. One of the best non turn based rpgs ever. It has everything.
And if the list is limited to just turn-based RPGs, I can think of better ones to add to this list. You have the Dragon Quest series, the Trails series…Persona 5 Royale is on the list but why limit it to just that one? P3 and P4 were great as well.
The Legend of Dragoon, Legend of Legaia, or the Shadow Hearts games has decent enjoyable turn based combat system.
The Persona 5 sub-series has surpassed 9 million copies worldwide and now contributes to over 50% of the series' total sales.
Would be plus+1 more if they'd settle the fk down and stop re releasing it. I'm waiting on the definitive one over here
It's ok, I bought 4 to your zero, they don't need your pity purchase. Every version was definitive and has their own perks.
... that's the only way I'd buy this great game.
i thought persona 3 was perfect one game that made me cry at the end, and persona 4 was awesome as well...i wouldn't want them to change a thing
I'm getting Persona 5 no matter what console or handheld its on.No matter what issues it has.I trust Atlus to deliver and they always deliver when it comes to Persona.
No one wants Shin Megami Tensei IV? :(
Okay, to be serious:
It's a dungeon crawler, it's suppose to be like that and mid saves would make it easier (if anyone here actual has played a real one before, or at least an old-school one) and if you want to, play it on easy...
The music is what makes it Japanese in the first place... I would think that Atlus's priority would be to make it sell well IN Japan. Overseas sales is probably not a priority...
They're also expecting some huge leap between P4 and P5, which I don't think people should get too high hopes for. Atlus (both as developer and publisher) isn't too huge or rich
them to restrict the player to one persona in PE3. I saw how everyone else was growing with their persona, and it would be nice to be attached to them.
Other than that the game is perfect. I never thought I'd care for having a life sim into an RPG but it worked flawlessly.
