It's finally done!! One of the longest games I've ever played, but it was worth it overall. As much as I want to give it a 5, there were SOME grievances I had. Plenty of story beats could have been handled better, and certain character arcs aren't as fulfilling as they could have been (one of them ends abruptly while another takes FOREVER). Worst of all, we have the Mementos. One of the most tedious parts of any game I played. It doesn't help they're required to advance many confidants.

Some things are easier to obtain than others as well. I can max out my knowledge and proficiency well enough, but charm can fuck right off! And as we all know by now, Morgana constantly telling you to go to bed. It at least gets easier to manage over time. Thankfully, I heard Royal improves on most of those things I mentioned. I'll get around to it eventually.

Everything else? It's amazing. I love the battle system, all the different party members, and the great perks you get from them among other things. That soundtrack is forever embedded in my brain. This is the game that really got me into RPGs, so I'm glad I finally got to complete it.

Side note: This review was originally written in 2020. Though, I touched it up a little here. I don't know when I'll get around to Royal. I don't have as much free time as I used to. It's why I stick to shorter games now.
