This is my first time with Persona 3 in any capacity. My only experience with the series is completing vanilla Persona 5.
P3R is great remake for first timers like me who don't want to go back to older combat systems and quality of life issues.
The persona calendar system is such a unique thing in gaming I enjoy diving into those game once a while. Each decision feels meaningful. Choosing your friends knowing there are some you won't be able to max -playing blindly- made me pick and choose who I want to know more of. The background music and stylish visuals made the whole 90 hours journey a treat.
Things I liked:
- Great cast of characters especially the party. I liked the entire party and everyone in the dorm I enjoyed spending time with.
- The combat is a lot of fun. Finding weaknesses, managing SP, Theurgy and all the systems didn't get old.
- Some of the the social links really stood out like Akinari. And I will remember some of those for a good time
- The music was great and I will listen to the OST for a long time.
Things I didn't like as much
- Tartarus was a bit long, I wish it was half its length. Many levels were just one corridor. Not sure what's the point.
- Some social links were forgettable.
- Night time became quickly boring cause it had only 2 social links and the stats were buffed by October. Wish they added more social links there.
