Cute sci-fi love story about a forbidden love. It's a little cheesy, but I loved how the characters interacted. Quite fun with a decent story and beautiful artwork.

There are a lot of problems with this game in terms of multiplayer. The maps are designed to have as many blind corners as possible so players hide behind each one, bolt action sniper rifles shooting faster than SMGs and being one-shot kills to any part of the body including legs, feet, and arms as opposed to MW 2019. There is no incentive to use anything other than shotguns or sniper rifles since everything else takes way too long to down someone meanwhile you've been one-shot killed 30 times in a row. Some maps are heavily one-sided on certain game modes. The console aim assist might as well be playing the game for them.

I thought this would be a breath of fresh air like MW 2019 was, but sadly it is not that. The DMZ mode is kinda boring, no real end goal. The Warzone map is the worst one yet. I may change my review depending on whether or not the new Raid content is any fun/good, but for now I definitely cannot recommend the game in this state.

Gets frustrating, but is when you finally overcome that obstacle, it feels amazing. The combat is really good and the controls are responsive. Story is engaging and the characters, though vague at times, are still memorable and well-written. The environments are beautiful and the design of the enemies and bosses is amazing. Great game if you don't mind a bit of a challenge.

Played this back on PS2 before Golden and played Golden on the PS Vita. Really happy to see this come to PC and see it even support higher refresh rates. I've been able to run it at a stable 144 FPS on my G-Sync monitor and the game looks amazing. A little more on the actual game though, the story is very engaging and follows a bit of a murder mystery type of structure. The main supporting cast all has to face their true selves while you collect and fuse other "personas", or demons from Shin Megami Tensei. Mechanics wise this game is turn based, though most recommend to use direct commands on all characters, since the AI can be a bit wonky at times. So glad Atlus and Sega have brought this to a bigger audience and gives people the chance to experience it. It's definitely worth a try especially at the $20 price point. Be aware, this game is really long and time consuming, even for a JRPG, but it is absolutely worth it.

I love this game and I am so happy to see it come to PC. Great buy and really nice story. Gameplay is engaging, challening, and really fun. Definitely recommend. I really hope Atlus brings us more.
