Also, i had no idea that the Persona games were creature-collectors ?! (and i guess the SMT games, too). The fact that all the "creatures" to collect are characters from real-world myth and legend was just extra juice for the nerd inside of me

Anyway, that's a (long) journey completed. I was definitely happy to finally be done after all that time, but there was something incredibly bittersweet about seeing everything come to a close; saying goodbye to all these characters i've spent so much time with was actually unexpectedly moving. I often complain about how often these RPG games drag things out, but with P4 it actually feels designed to be as much of a lived time-span for you as for the main character. Quite amazing, actually

Other than that, the game is beautifully designed and polished, but what more could i say there that hasn't been said a million times already? After P5, it seems the franchise has found a piece of the mainstream, but i hope they continue making games like this, because it's a fascinating thing to experience
