    The genius of the first rambo movie has nothing to do with his abs. But I do love a random tech assumption, they are straight out of a cliche reddit thread

    Yeah that stuff is cool. Just not playing batting practise or talking to dairy shop owners and seeing the same model of a business man carrying his suit case every 2nd npc

    The CoD dude bros would take one look at Persona 5 and just laugh. Its even too weeb for me

    Was gonna buy it yesterday but looked up the walkthrough and it was too much walking around in the rain just being a student for me. Got AC origins instead which has been fun
    If it wasnt weeb it wouldnt be persona.

    Maybe when its a bit cheaper i'll give it a chance.

    While the artstyle is striking, its not my cup of tea for choosing actions with the over the top Font and hearts for health etc. But the gameplay itself does look good and a more involved turn based style - that alone makes it worth trying I guess.

    And the idea is creative with going into peoples sins or evil hearts w/e it is and all that stuff. That does sound like it leaves a lot of room for comedy and dark stuff too.

    Maybe they grow on you after more time/more story but first impressions where they were quite generic, especially the female character that gets hit on by the coach

    Not too bad, sounds like a chill song on in the background at a club during the day.

    Can you turn off the big action emote that pops up when you can jump etc? The stages inside people that are kind of platformerish with puzzles looks cool but feel its slightly ruined by "ACTION" popping up every turn even if you're just jumping across wooden sticks with no where else to go

    not fond of things that spell things out. Like to turn off arrows and prompts where ever possible. Half the fun is in finding out where to go

    13 reasons why deals with that subject and is very generic. I dunno why touching on taboo/difficult subjects is ground breaking in any way. Should be encouraged sure but calm down lad.

    who said anything about ground breaking? The subject was generic character, she is not.

    well ground breaking is kind of the opposite of generic no? So they go hand in hand. All i'm saying is, first impression wasnt that flash. Happy to be proven wrong but it takes more than the suicide boogie man, that sounds even more edgy and therefore generic to me

    I don't remember it telling you where to go. Also the motivation isn't liking her, but it's hating kamoshida. I rarely get mad but i got pissed at him.

    Ground breaking is not the opposite of generic no. If you want to be proven wrong go play the game. Nobody is going to give you a spoiler 2 page report on her here, you could probably find that with google if you wanted to.
