completed persona 5's missing points, great overall with amazing new set of music tracks, gameplay is engaging and visually fun to play.
Monument
It's outright a must play, it does suffer from some flaws though.
The pacing of the game gets brutally slow from time to time, in the form of uninteresting dialogue that just goes on and on about the same thing, and you know I mean it when that sometimes goes over for more than an hour. The lack of real interaction of the player on the dialogue only makes it worse, you have amazing gameplay interrupted by an hour of visual novel.
The other thing is the combat, I don't play many JRPGs because I don't enjoy mindless combat along the lines "push the button that gives the highest number", and Persona 5 is not like that... for maybe the first half of the game. Most of the cool strategies that you could aply earlier in the game get outshadow by "skill that does several damage", which sadly trivializes a rather good combat system.
I think it worth noting that I played the original P5, and that could be a reason to why the dialogue got even more boring for me or how I manage to optimize the combat so much. I would still recommend to play P5R if you enjoyed it the original, but give yourself some time in between.
Still, this game really good, it's not perfect, but that doesn't mean that it isn't one of the best JRPGs out there that you can enjoy even if it that ain't your genre.
Also, do not try to finish this game quickly, it is not meant to be played like that, you'll only get burnt out of it and end up hating it. Now go play it.
