We finished Persona 5 last night. When I last posted, we were about halfway through the third palace. It was also around the time that T and I both got fairly obsessed with it, and working on the game became our main pastime almost every evening it was possible. Although I have a few quibbles here and there, overall it's my favorite new game in quite awhile, and now I'm wondering why I waited so long to give this series a try.
( Cut for ending spoilers )
But in the grand scheme of things, those issues feel comparatively minor. (Less minor is the constant objectification and sexualization of Ann, but that's another post.) I'll overlook a lot for a game with such a strong story and interesting suite of characters. If you like JRPGs and/or social sims, I highly recommend it. And now that it's over, I have to figure out what to do with my life.
