Persona 2: Innocent Sin

Over the past year or so the PSP has really seen a surge in awesome role playing games, and Persona 2 is no exception.

It's bizarre, unique and a heck of an experience especially for those who have never touched either game in this duology. It's compelling enough on its own to be worth the price of admission.

This is better than the original PSOne game, but it is a bit dissapointing not to see much new features in these twelve years. A port that brings old-school roleplaying to PSP, that could have been better, but is still a good game.

It's a game suited for the brand's lovers, and for JRPGs true aficionados. Some freshness could improve its reach, let's hope in the next chapters.

After twelve long years of waiting, Persona 2: Innocent Sin certainly lives up to expectations and proves that its reputation as one of the gems of the previous generation of JRPGs was well deserved.

There's something special with Innocent Sin, but only the most dedicated RPG fans will ever be able to truly appreciate it. At least they can finally experience the part of Persona 2 they never knew.

More than 10 years after its original release, Persona 2: Innocent Sin no longer has the magic it once did.

TIme to talk about my favourite Persona game and probably favourite game of all time: Persona 2 Innocent Sin. This game has a ton of grinding but trust me if you can beat P3's dungeon you can easily do Persona 2's. Plot is better though.

Great story ( probably on of the best in the series), but everything else is just outdated, I really wish for a remake

Persona 2 is screaming for a remake. Persona 2 - Innocent Sin presents us a good story, which is on par (if not better) with modern Persona games, but it is kind of confusing for the first part of the game. The characters, while not having social links, feel as deep and relatable as the ones in the future games. However, where this game shows it's age is in gameplay. While the story/characters for Persona 2 are around an 8, the gameplay is a 4 at best. 80% of the dungeons in the game are extremely easy, some of them only having one path. Demon battles are very slow, and you need to reorder your party every single time you enter a new battle. The game also wants you to use fusion spells. But it wants you to use them TOO much. Most battles consist of casting a fusion spell and winning the battle - if you are fighting a boss, then use 4 turns for 4 fusion spells - which basically erases the need for strategy. Overall, Persona 2 is a game that could be way more enjoyable if it got a remake, since while the story/characters are good, the gameplay just shows how some old RPG mechanics have aged really badly.

my playtime: ~9 hours. pros: -The soundtrack is pretty good. -unique and interesting mechanics, like persona mutations, contacts, rumors, etc. -unique but not so memorable characters. -Realism. a lot of it. cons: -The story makes little to no sense. but screw me for not playing persona 2 eternal punishment before playing this i guess. -The game doesn't tell you where to go or what to do most of the time, which makes it easy for you to get lost. -I have a lot to say about the contact mechanic, its an interesting concept but executed very horribly... it gets repetitive very quickly, dialogues also get repetitive quickly and aren't very interesting, and the persona personalities don't help when one persona species always has the same personalities, and it's necessary to do this multiple times so you can get new personas, and the pacts don't even have that much of a benefit sometimes. -And the worst of all... the battles, they are super easy on hard mode, they don't need any thinking, they happen way too many times, and they make the game boring as hell in short: games okay but the battles kill the game

Persona 2 Tsumi is a trashfire **** that I am ashamed to have played. I only give it a one cuz its characters are kinda okay and the music bangs but (almost every) song in Persona slaps (besides P1 PSP and P5 OST) The story fails to give me any motivation to actually get invested, I'm apparently supposed to just take the **** insane **** that happens in this game seriously? I'm supposed to like the fact that **** in this? Haha no. The gameplay is braindead easy, all you do is spam fusion spells and you win the game, thats it. To top it all off, the absolutely diabolical remaster makes every problem with this game worse. Worse dungeon traveling Worse battles Worse translation ****ty side quests And the dumbest **** slowdown (its a **** PS1 game for crying out loud) I truly hate Persona 2 Innocent Sin, it is genuinely a trashfire in my eyes. Truly a horrible experience.
