Dear Japan and fans of their products, Why?! Why do I keep believing you when you say the persona series is a must play? Why do you keep making 8 versions of the same game everytime you release one?! Why?! I waited forever to play the third game because I've never been a huge fan of turn based games because scrolling through menus is the easiest way to take you out of the role play which is the whole point of playing role playing games! But after years and 3 or 4 different versions released I bought it and enjoyed parts but the model got old to me quick especially since there is 0 choice importance! Then persona 4 came out and I held out again because the problems i stated previously but again I caved because the high review scores and I faced a game that involved different characters but was largely the same game! Now with persona 5 I waited again and am playing it 7 years after its release and hopped in and its the EXACT SAME GAME AGAIN! you are a high school kid who is forced into a new school, you catch eyes with a pretty yet awkward girl but dont meet her til later, then you meet an overdramatic dude who is known as a trouble maker, then you meet the pretty girl and she always has a much more social less attractive friend and some weird supernatural thing keeps happening and you (the teenagers) have to get to the bottom of it for some reason! O yea and don't forget the fact every Japanese game has to include at least 1 overly sexual creepy dude who usually spends their entire time hitting on one of or all the teenage girls, in this case, the weirdo p.e teacher who walks around in pink spandex for some reason! Oops I forgot about the weird animal in every game who always looks like a big head animal but when you call them that animal they get mad and claim they aren't that animal! This is a similar problem I have with the yakuza series! They take the same game and repaint it with different characters and slight changes to the story but largely its the exact same thing and I can tell you what, I'm done falling for it! I will never purchase another persona or yakuza game cause I could get the exact same game from 10 years earlier! Interested in person 5? My advice is play persona 4, it's better and probably cheaper

I would love to tell you I finished this game but I didn't. Ubisoft took all steps forward combat wise and threw it out the window and reverted to the archaic combat of assassins creed 1. This is only a small problem if they didn't force me into an origins story for a very unlikable character from the previous game, o wait that's exactly what they did! Every single time I have attempted to play this game I get cheap killed by an enemy swinging an unblockable attack that I can't see coming because they always glow red and I give up and start replaying odyssey! At least the opening is 2 hours long so there is no way to know the game is garbage until ubisoft has locked you into the purchase!

Hey Hanger 13, why remake a game where you spend most the time driving and not make the driving mechanic airtight?? It is crazy how many times you crash because your tires are literally made of ice

This game may go down as the most disappointing game in history if CD projekt red doesn't get on with the patching! It is absurd that the game had so many delays extending the release date back year after year and it feels like they accidentally released the alpha version instead! There is soooooooo much to do in this game and the story is really good and the graphics are fantastic but those points are only a minor part of the story. From the moment I boot up the game I get bombarded with minor irritating glitches all the way up to game breaking crashes. In my around ten hours of playtime I have experienced these issues, among others! Falling through the ground under the map, rubberbanding, rendering not able to keep up with itself while driving. Everytime I move from one room to another I have 5-10 people popping up from delayed rendering. I also have buttons not recognizing they were pushed, sound skipping and repeating, and multiple full game crashes! With this huge list of problems with the game I still give it a 7 because everything else besides those issues is a flawless game that tries a lot of new things I just really wish even half the glitches weren't there because the game itself has me hooked!!
