I love the characters, the interactions between them, and the world Atlus has made, but I wish I loved this game as much as everyone says I should. The story just, doesn't work. The build-up falls flat for the climax of the story, and at some points I realized I was playing for the sake of completion, not out of any sense of interest in the story. The combat is somehow worse than P3, with tartarus being much more favorable over the new dungeon system that requires me to backtrack floors and re-fight them????? Characters and environment in this game are set-up perfectly, but the story and gameplay are just simply exhausting
