I have incredibly mixed feelings about this game. On paper, it has all the ingredients to be exactly the kind of thing I love. Yet, across the 70+ hours it took to beat, I never stopped feeling forced to keep playing. I picked it up on release day in October 2024. It took me over a year to clock those 70 hours, and I did it almost entirely out of a sense of obligation... though I still don't know why! The gameplay is standard SMT/Persona fare. The cast is colorful, sure, but they lack the spark found in the Persona series. The music is phenomenal, but it’s relentless, it plays constantly, even during serious conversations, which completely kills the mood. As for the story? The overall message isn't bad, but you can see the ending coming from a mile away. That said, I am giving this a positive review because the game genuinely deserves it. Despite my struggle, the production values are high, the mechanics are polished, and the sheer amount of content is impressive. It is objectively a high-quality product that demands respect, even if my personal experience felt like a slog at times. I can't recommend this game, yet I could talk about it for hours. It’s confusing. Paradoxically, if they released a sequel, I’d probably play it. Ultimately, this review is just me venting about a game I forced myself to finish just to say I didn't leave it halfway done.

When Atlus initially announced they were developing a new IP with a fantasy setting, I had high hopes that they would create something really unique and fresh. Instead we got a little bit of SMT mixed with a bunch of Persona. The game has its fair share of highs and lows. The archetype system is fantastic but extremely back loaded. The agency that you have to build your characters is leagues better and easier to understand than the persona system but you have to get through a significant chunk of the game before you can really experience this. The press-turn battle system is also my absolute favorite out of their games, there is potential to get one turn KO'd by enemies and also potential to absolutely disrespect the ♥♥♥♥ out of them. The "action combat" is great when it works in your favor, being able to farm experience and items quickly is game-changing for a JRPG. However, it is so inconsistent and some monsters will just power armor through your attacks or snipe you from a mile away. On harder difficulties this is almost a guaranteed game over and you have potentially lost an hour or more of progress. I put my controller down to stretch and had a mob spawn literally on top of me and already be in its attack animation before it had even faded into view, ambushing me, wiping my party and deleting an hour of grinding. The idea is great but the implementation just feels like it was tacked on at the end. The story is mediocre at best, it has a strong start and a strong ending but a lot of stuff in between is cliche and at times even predictable. Where the game really shines is in the main cast of characters and confidantes. There wasn't a single character I didn't like or relate to in some way and this is definitely Atlus's strong point. Gallica is also the best navigator/mascot that they have created so far. Overall, the gameplay is probably the best out of all Atlus games, the music is great and really unique with some outstanding tracks (virga island goes crazy), the characters are fantastic and the QoL features are really game-changing. The overarching theme and messaging of the story is also one that I loved despite my complaints. I hate the day to day schedule ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ though, I hope it gets trashed as it makes the game such a slog to get through. P.S. To the dev that decided to lock the final achievement, and therefore the achievement for getting all achievements, behind NG+ and not just at the beginning but requiring you to play through the majority of the game (100+ hour game btw): ♥♥♥♥ you, your game is not that good, I hope both sides of your pillow are just warm enough to cause you slight discomfort.
