Persona 3 Reload (P3R) is the best entry of the Persona series without a doubt and a great example of how remakes shall be done, even though I played the Portable version of the game, the story managed to make me cry;

The astonishing graphics, incredible music and the addition of 'Linked Episodes' with the male cast and and 'Hangouts' really makes the story flourish even more, it makes the S.E.E.S members seen really close and good friends, also making the player be more attached to said characters;

Each character have a development during the story, each one of them being memorable, its really great seeing the characters growing and reaching their resolves;

The gameplay is really fun, the JRPG section of the game got way more fluid than the previous versions of Persona 3, making it closer to the one in Persona 5, while also adding new mechanics, such as the 'Theurgy' and keeping the physical attacks split into three types;
The visual novel section also improved, with the SLs of non persona users now being fully voiced makes it way more enjoyable to interact with them;

It is a masterpiece in JRPG form, I really can't express enough how much I love this game.
