    Texture model, cutscene and audio quality are the same as PS4. Loading times are quick and I have not encountered any bugs or crashing. TheyTexture model, cutscene and audio quality are the same as PS4. Loading times are quick and I have not encountered any bugs or crashing. They did not skimp on last gen. Good writing and characters, plenty of activities to do. Combat is very stylish and responsive. Expand

    P5 is a super interesting, no punches held commentary on the western society and people willing to exploit it and oppress people for their ownP5 is a super interesting, no punches held commentary on the western society and people willing to exploit it and oppress people for their own wealth, creating a stark split in the society that can drive the people sitting on the "wrong side" of the gap into deep trouble.... even death.

    When each and every cast member is an exaggerated or simplified example of various victimhoods, and the villains portray the 7 deadly sins. it's hard to call the cast "bland". Heck, there's even plenty of character development dedicated for said characters; starting from the "awakening" phase where they decide to rebel against their oppressors, to the optional scenes of maturing you get to witness by spending time with them.

    Not only that, but it actually dares to bring up the general population's typical lack of interest and desire for "please think and work for me!" mentality, which ultimately stresses the community they reside in and may just as well lead the entire society into doom.

    Besides all these thematics, P5 is also once again a fine example of Japanese people turning some kinda mundane, even forgotten western ideas and lores into something truly unique and fascinating. This is the most obvious in the Persona designs themselves, with pretty much each one of them being these snappy shots of tangential learning at its best.
    P5 is not only the most psychological experience since Silent Hill 2, but it can also be taken as a non-official Lupin the third game.

    I don't think I need to even bring up the audio-visual presentation. It's kickass, stylish, and jammin' . The themes and levels are like something out of Psychonauts, again a huge plus.

    The only real downsides I can think of are the lengthy stretches of repetition / info dumping near the very end, at which point it really does not matter any more.

Pantallas de carga rápidas, estilo de combate fluido, una banda sonora totalmente emocionante, envolvente y literalmente para ponerse a bailar en algunas ocasiones. Aunque por otra parte, las batallas decisivas producen una sensación de tensión, aunque no desagradable, sino todo lo contrario. Toneladas de cosas por hacer en el mundo cuando no estás participando de las batallas con emocionantes conversaciones, divertidos minijuegos y eventos secundarios. Un juego que debes jugar antes de morir. Expand

It's almost perfect, however there are some points with the combat that feels too repetitive, however it doesn't come up often (mostly in mementos). One complaint which might just be a problem with my console, is the weird choppiness I get when playing - possibly due to the game running at 30fps - however, you learn not to mind it overtime.

Visual, music and story. it's one of the last game on PS3. i played lot of shin megami tensei, this one is very good. And about the difficultie, if you buy a messiah at lvl 90 (DLC) at the begining, it will be easier (you can use it even if you have a lower level than 90). Expand
