Pretty cool story that's sadly attached to a low-grade PS1 JRPG. To be honest, after a few hours I was just not vibing with the gameplay and decided I wasn't losing anything by just watching the story on YouTube. A beat Innocent Sin 2 years ago and mostly trudged through that with speed up and grinding. Now, I realize it isn't worth it to act like I'm engaging with the game when I'm not. That aside, the story's neat, it's the most explicit the series has gone into Sci-fi. Back when this came out, I'm sure the mechanics were experimental and conceptually cool, but comparing them to RPGs of today (and even to a degree, some of its contemporaries) it kinda sucks. P2 is amazingly deserving of a remake.
