above all, the scale and scope of this game is what i loved the most. it definitely shouldn't be dismissed as "just another spinoff," it's a worthy sequel to persona 5 and a great game in its own right.

the story expands on a lot of what i loved about persona 5 and persona in general, the original characters are done justice and the new characters are compelling as well.

the gameplay is also fun. it's repetitive and has a bit of a learning curve, but there was never a time that i hated it. it's a lot of fun once you get the hang of the various tech you have available. i'd suggest reading tutorials and trying out all the combos with each character.
