To start things off, i initially intended to play Persona 3 FES before the remake comes out, but then my save file got corrupted and i lost about 20 hours of progress so i instead started Portable some time later, and my god this game is great, the Story, the characters, the music it's just great, i also really like that the combat in Tartarus is a lot more pleasent with you being able to control your party members and the addition of the female Protagonist, overall this would have been my favorite persona game , but i am not really that big of a fan of the story being told as a visual novel as i feel like, certain scenes don't really hit that hard like they did in the original. (Yes i know it was because of the psp but still) but still it's a fantastic game that i can definetly recommend c:
