this game is interesting because it has ideas that are absolutely fantastic for both gameplay and story, and some quietly beautiful moments of writing, but it also has extremely weird writing that turned me off a bit from the story and also dragged the game on too much (the fucking camping trip was miserable) and also some extremely repetitive gameplay that led to me shelving it. i'll pick it up again someday, maybe even fairly soon, because i think the ending kind of makes or breaks a game, and i like the game's characters enough as to where i would be interested in picking it up again, but i just cba rn. legit eyeing up playing persona 2 before even finishing this because it looks like it'd appeal to me way more.
