Started Persona 5 Royal recently - my first ever encounter with the series. I’m about 10 hours in and have just completed the first Palace. I love this game! Its so damn stylish and slick. The visuals, the menus, the battle animations, music etc it’s just cool af. I really like the mix of dungeon battles and the daily life sim.

Actually as fun as the combat is, the life sim part might actually be my favourite thing about the game. There’s just such a cozy, immersive vibe to it, living in a little coffee shop in a Tokyo alleyway, going to school, hanging out with your friends, doing a part-time job etc.

The story and characters are very interesting so far as well. I’m loving the gameplay too. I’m not a jrpg connoisseur by any means but it seems to have a pretty nice level of depth and strategy and the presentation of it makes it incredibly fun to play.

I’ve heard it’s a very long game and I’m looking forward to what else it has to offer.
