Overall a very interesting story, fun unique gameplay though it did get a bit repetitive, the characters were somewhat likeable but also underdeveloped, some you care for others you don't.
The difficulty spikes were noticeable but with enough skill you could figure out the tricks to getting passed certain bosses (though if you're like me and hate using your head and instead like being strong and grinding to high levels making bosses feel like cheap enemies, then you won't notice it).

The story was really cool, I think traveling to a parallel dimension was awesome.

I think a big con for me is lack of voice acting, even if someone could say " you would've gotten a shitty dub" a dub is better than no dub. I think parts that show emotion with Narumi, Kaya, and ESPECIALLY THAT SCENE WITH GOUTO DOUJI needed voice actors. Even comedic moments with Narumi lack voice actors so it makes the joke not hit as hard when reading it.

Overall I have to say very highly rated SMT game that deserves the praise,
I had a really enjoyable time with it, In terms of story it's better than 5 and nocturne, and while the gameplay is unique, I had more fun with smt Nocturne and V in terms of gameplay. Overall have to give it a 8/10 for story, 7/10 for gameplay, 3/10 for characters, and 9/10 for the environments, for an overall rating of 7.5/10, or in terms of stars 4/5 stars
