A game that acts as foundation for something bigger and better found in Persona 5, but this game still knocks it out of the ballpark in nearly every aspect. The soundtrack is probably the greatest ever in a video game hands down. The characters and setting feel extremely legitimate given the nature of the game at hand. The game has such an intense feeling of sonder, and yes I did spell that correctly. The only real blemish is that it goes on about two dungeons too long. You should never want a game you're enjoying to be over, but I felt a wave of "thank fucking christ" when I saw those credits roll. I know I have more to say about this game, but I have neither the time nor capacity to write something that huge and conclusive right now, so I might revisit this topic in the future.

For now I'll give it a decently low 10/10.
