if you hate the ending you're a coward

i could tell you about all the shortcomings this remake has, from lack of difficulty compared to the original, to the prerendered cutscenes lacking bite in some areas, to the removal of femc, ect.

none of those really mattered to me by the time i finished. the original persona 3 is one of the most important games of my life, a game that ended up changing how i viewed life and my own existence in it. reload was never, ever going to be anything less than 5 stars from me if they managed to stick the landing.

well, i'm typing this through tears after spending the last 30 minutes sobbing after the ending played, so yeah they stuck the landing. every emotional beat from the original hit me just as hard as they did when i was 15, and that's all i ever wanted. everything else i got was just a bonus.

memento mori

this game taught my sister the n word and that's not a joke.

it's the best arcade racer ever made

bethesda's house of cards finally crumbles. i see glimpses of ambition in some parts of this game, but their ambition is far outstripped by their own lack of ability. i think a lot about how the space sections just feel like glorified loading screens.

might return to this in a few years after the modding scene gets a chance to develop, but considering what i've heard about the difficulties modders are having with getting anything done, i don't know how much they'll be able to fix.

more like tony hawk's project 8 fps

abandon all hope ye who enter here

i have never felt more emotion than when i first played through the final mission of this game. if i can ever create something that could inspire the feeling i got while playing that mission to someone else, i can die happy.

feel like shit just want blitz back

this is such an obsidian game. it's the perfect encapsulation of what i expect when i play a game made by them.

the payday gang decided to come back the next day

shez!

it's SOOOO close to achieving greatness, but the fact that every route doesn't have an actual ending is. a choice, i suppose. honestly, i was expecting dlc releases to come and give you the "true ending" for each route, but considering we're now well over a year after release, and not even a hint of dlc in sight, i don't think that'll happen.

real disappointing, because otherwise i enjoyed it significantly more than i did the first fire emblem warriors.

lucina was my trans awakening

so fucking hard to rate because of how it plays but back in the day the multiplayer was a lot of fun and i do think it's the best actual story out of the GTAs so uh. 8/10!

i feel like the black chad muska
