refuse to read it from that tweet alone it will ruin the high im feeling rn

Like, I understand mentioning P5 since it’s the most recent ATLUS RPG but it’s NOT PERSONA

Saw a review complaining that every boss is a roadblock too

It’s not a bad score but you’d think Persona 5 was the first JRPG ever made the way some of these reviewers are talking

Sounds like a rlm joke intro

yeah, the reviewer seemed pretty adamant on drawing persona comparisons. like you said, it makes sense with it being atlus' most recent rpg and i understand it as well, but man, they're completely different. still a great score though.

LETS GOOOOOOO SMT SUPREMACY BABY

the ign review also confirmed that there's three endings.

prob gonna go with whatever the equivalent of a neutral route is (assuming there is something of the sort). those seem to have the most content and i find em to be way more interesting than the others).

critics dont usually give a lot of love mainline so im taking this as a massive positive

F*** IGN HOW IS THIS GSME A PERSONA 5 WITHOUT THE HEART THESE PEOPLE SHOULDNT HAVE A JOB AS VIDEOGAME REVIEWERS PERSONA WOULD NOT EXIST WITHOUT SHIN MEGAMI TENSEI GET THAT RIGHT IN YOUR MOTHERFUCKING HEAD F***ERS F*** U F*** U

Gamespot and ign this year tryna make up for all the previous years they were handing out 9s and 10s like candy by giving everything they review 1 point less f*** them stupid ass reviewers dont even know the historical context of the game they're reviewing mfs getting paid for this s*** nah b im done with this bullshit

Shut off the IGN review 5 seconds in

At least a smt superfan here in italy gave the game a 9/10. Man was super positive about it that's all i needed to know f*** these losers

Like comparing this to persona is natural bound to happen whatever but when you say this game is a watered down persona 5 thats what doesnt sit right with me nah nah

Persona 5 fandom was a mistake they should've never played that game on god these mfs think dating teenagers is the pinnacle of the jrpg genre nah this doesnt sit well with me at all

"I just couldn't shake the feeling that this was Persona without the heart – without the unforgettable companion characters, the potent personal story, the incredible soundtrack, and the jaw-dropping twists and turns"
I HATE VIDEOGAME CRITICS

Someone needs to make that smt iv review meme for this one

History repeats itself man its crazy im having a mental breakdown itt man its like they never learn these critics get payed for writing this s***

At least its still a 87...

Didnt know people said the same thing about smtiv

it's honestly impressive how inept ppl in gaming journalism can be. oh well, glad to see it's getting very good scores across the board.

can see it being even worse with smt v since it's a bigger game

Yeah people who know what smt is are all reviewing it very positively which is what matters at the end of the day. It just annoys me that there are professional game reviewers that dont know what they're talking about making silly ass claims. Theres no need to s*** on the smaller game because it isnt the bigger, more different game because it takes away from the qualities the game has. That 8/10 while a good score tells me it would've scored higher if it wasnt a smt game but a persona game which as a critic is just baffling to read

I would be lying tho if i said i wasnt expecting this lmao
