que ac0jon4nte de juego, el gameplay es tan aburrido que deje jugarlo. Una pena por que la historia se ve interesante
Тяжело,тяжело...
jogao da porra
Игра охуенная, пятёрка всё ещё мне нравится больше(давайте, налетайте, олды) Но тройка-ремейк всё равно тронула, и подарила много положительных эмоций
Si te gustó persona 5, esto es como una versión destilada. Historia mas simple y pura. Este es el juego que asentó las bases modernas de persona.
I genuinely have no words for this game. It's been a very long time since I finished a game and just sat there staring at the screen, feeling completely empty. Persona 3 Reload left me with that feeling. Not because I was disappointed, but because I didn't want it to end. I absolutely fell in love with this cast. Makoto, Mitsuru, Yukari, Akihiko, Junpei, Aigis, Ken, Koromaru, Shinjiro and Takaya. Every single one of them felt like a real person instead of just another JRPG party member. They all had their own struggles, flaws and reasons for fighting, and watching them slowly grow closer throughout the year was honestly one of my favorite parts of the game. By the end, they didn't feel like characters anymore. They felt like friends. The story completely caught me off guard. It starts off mysterious and a bit slow, but once everything begins to connect, it just keeps getting better and better. Every month reveals something that changes your understanding of the world and the characters. Then January arrives... and wow. Everything about that final month is incredible. The atmosphere, the dialogue, the feeling that every day matters. You can literally feel the weight of what's coming, and the game makes you appreciate every remaining moment with the people you've spent an entire year with. One of my favorite things about Persona has always been the Social Links, but I think Persona 3 has my favorite ones. They aren't just side stories to level up your Personas. They actually reinforce the game's central themes about life, death, purpose and accepting reality. I loved the symbolism behind the Arcana. The Fool represents your group at the beginning of the journey, inexperienced and unaware of what lies ahead. The Hanged Man tells the story of a little girl who feels trapped because of her parents' divorce, and that's only one example. Almost every Social Link reflects a different way people deal with fear, regret, hope or loss. They all connect back to the game's message in one way or another. They're incredibly well written without ever feeling preachy. Now let's talk about the ending. I obviously won't spoil anything because everyone deserves to experience it for themselves. All I'll say is that it completely broke me. I don't usually get emotional over games, but this one made me tear up. It's one of those endings that becomes even more powerful the more you understand everything that happened before it. It doesn't rely on shock value. It earns every single emotion through the journey you've had with these characters. When the credits rolled, I just sat there listening to the music and thinking about everything I'd been through with them. It's one of the most beautiful endings I've experienced in gaming. Speaking of music... This might honestly be my favorite soundtrack in any game. Every single track fits perfectly. Full Moon Full Life became an instant favorite. Mass Destruction somehow never gets old no matter how many battles you hear it in. Color Your Night is genuinely one of the best songs Atlus has ever made. But nothing compares to January. That January soundtrack is absolutely unreal. It's beautiful, peaceful and heartbreaking all at the same time. The moment it started playing, I immediately knew the game had entered its final chapter. That song alone carries so much emotion that it completely changes the atmosphere every time you walk around. I don't think I'll ever forget it. The gameplay loop is honestly addicting. The calendar system is still one of the best mechanics Atlus has ever created. Every day feels valuable because every decision matters. Do you study? Spend time with friends? Increase your social stats? Explore Tartarus? Work a part time job? You're constantly making choices, and it makes every playthrough feel personal. I actually ended up enjoying this system even more than Persona 5 Royal's. Persona fusion is another reason I couldn't stop playing. It looks simple at first, but it's surprisingly deep. Deciding which skills to inherit, planning future fusions and creating Personas that perfectly match your playstyle becomes incredibly satisfying. The game rewards experimentation, and I spent way more time in the Velvet Room than I expected because I was always trying to create something even stronger. Now for the only part of the game that I wasn't a huge fan of. Tartarus. I understand why it exists from both a story and gameplay perspective, but it's easily the weakest part of Persona 3 Reload for me. The biggest issue is that it becomes repetitive. You're climbing floor after floor with randomly generated layouts that don't really change much visually or mechanically. Unlike Persona 5's handcrafted Palaces where every dungeon tells its own story and constantly introduces new ideas, Tartarus feels like it's repeating the same formula for dozens and dozens of hours. The combat itself is fun, but the environments rarely evolve in interesting ways. New blocks introduce different colors and themes, but the actual design philosophy stays mostly the same. You're still opening random chests, avoiding dead ends, finding the staircase and repeating the process over and over again. Playing on Hard made this even more noticeable. Some of the mini bosses can be incredibly unforgiving if your team or Personas aren't prepared. There were several fights that forced me to completely rethink my strategy, which I actually enjoyed, but other moments felt frustrating simply because of bad RNG or unlucky enemy combinations. Then there are the rescue requests. Missing a kidnapped person because you advanced too far or forgot the deadline feels awful. It's one of those mechanics that creates unnecessary stress instead of meaningful challenge. Eventually I developed my own routine. I would completely ignore Tartarus until around two days before every major story event. Then I'd climb as much as possible in one long session just so I wouldn't have to think about it again for another month. That's how much I wanted to get it out of the way. Even with all of those criticisms, I never disliked the game because of Tartarus. I simply think it's the one area where Persona 5 clearly improved upon the formula. I'm currently playing Episode Aigis, and honestly... it's good so far. The biggest reason I'm playing it isn't because I needed more gameplay. It's because I'm not ready to say goodbye. That's probably the biggest compliment I can give this game. I just want to spend more time with these characters. That's it. Persona 3 Reload reminded me why I love video games. Not because of graphics or combat systems or mechanics, but because every once in a while a game tells a story that stays with you long after you finish it. This is one of those games. Thank you, SEES. I don't think I'll ever forget this journey.
better than sex
ım gonna cry
best game
fun game, better if you already like megaten stuff, if its your first persona / you're coming off the hype of recent announcements, just play P5R in the meantime; very enjoyable experience, boring start but i've come to really like the characters here. I usually hate the wacky outgoing class clown archetype they put in their games but Junpei is alright in my book. lastly, holy ♥♥♥♥ tartarus puts me to bed. By the time i've ascended 3-4 levels on whatever part of tartarus im on, im ready to leave, which is feels really bad as it is the only dungeon. TLDR; cool game, get it on sale for sure do not pay $60 for this lol.
