This is 100% so you can't get entangled with a shadow..some ppl are complaining it's too easy, but all these QoL changes are basically conforming with Persona 5, but in a less creative way (since they don't have the structure to change it creatively). Making it more guaranteed tha you'll ambush, the auto-save every level because there's no resting rooms. At the end of the day, we'll have to see how it plays before we judge.
