Twinfinite Writes: 2020 has plenty of new games to look forward to, but it's also an interesting year for bringing back the past with ambitious remasters and remakes.
Atlus wins over gamers yet again.
4.8? This game is literally one of the best modern JRPGs. I’d give it the perfect score.
"Newer Persona games dive into the simulation of a high school student at the cost of RPG mechanics compared to Shin Megami Tensei." - Najam from eXputer.
Persona (particularly 3,4 and 5) is the best thing to come out of Atlus, by far. The only way other games get ruined is by paling in comparison.
That's a bad take.
SMT had a niche following. So did persona. They redid persona starting with three to reach an wider audience. Nothing happened with the original SMT and have stayed the way they were. If they were to revamp that main series you could get what happened with soul hackers lol. You want that?
A spin off is a spin off. Why would they ruin the original? If you like the original then that's great, you can carry on enjoying it. If the spin off is crap it has no impact on the original at all.
I love Persona 5 and P5R but I have zero interest in Strikers or Tactica but even if I played them and didn't like them they wouldn't ruin the original games for me.
Same goes for if you like the SMT games but don't like Persona, why would that suddenly make SMT bad?
Now that Death Stranding has landed on iOS, here are five other PS4-era blockbusters that we'd love to have to play on our iPhones at any time.
FF7 remake GOTY 2020!
That list looked promising until they pulled out "SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated" .
Very excited for FF and Persona 5
Resi 3 remake will be great no doubt and it'll be interesting to see where they go from there.
FF7 was my first in the series and at the time it blew my mind so I'm really looking forward to the remake but in many ways I preferred FF8 so I'd love to see that get the same treatment. It'd be a great chance to take a game that has a lot going for it but which gets a bit of fairly justifiable criticism and remove the bad aspects while making all the good stuff new and shiny.
They forgot about XIII. That is the one I am looking forward to the most.
