I was due for some more positivity when talking about shin megami tensei and persona. Ever since I did the top 5 SMT games, I’ve been meaning to make a Persona list. I love every entry in this series each for very different reasons, and since there are only 6 I decided to rank every one of them. The games that will be ranked on the list are as follows, Persona 1, Persona 2: Innocent Sin, Persona 2: Eternal Punishment, Persona 3, Persona 4, and Persona 5. I will be considering both entries in the persona 2 duology individually as, essentially they can be enjoyed as 2 competent games. By the end we’ll find out which one is the best. Each of these games has had remakes or remasters over the years and as such, both the original and later edition will be taken into account for ranking purposes. For better or for worse the changes to these games can affect your enjoyment of them and I’ll talk about which ones I prefer more. Also for the record I will not include the Q games on the list as I really don’t like them, so just imagine I put both at the bottom. Each of these games has aspects to enjoy, but for the sake of the video we’ll start with my least favorite and work our way up to the best in the series. As celebration for persona 25 and the pc release of the new persona games this video lays all my cards on the table for what I think are the best in the series with a good explanation as to my thoughts on each one. Think of this video as a mini review and intro story summary for each of the persona games. From humble beginnings the persons series flourished into a JRPG monolith and I couldn't be happier at the success it has seen. with shin megami tensei and persona being my favorite series it was only natural to be excited for the 25th anniversary, but I didn't put anything on the channel outside of smt for a long time. In an attempt to diversify my content, this list was needed. Many would be surprised to know I actually prefer the persona series over shin megami tensei as a whole, but both are near and dear to my heart. I understand my list won't be filled with that many hot takes, but as I said this video is more of a persona review for the entire series so I hope my explanations are entertaining. Persona games ranked worst to best is the only title I could think of, but I love these games both as a spinoff of shin megami tensei, and as the standalone series persona.

@PinClockFuntime Жыл бұрын

Don't agree with your P3 takes but respect your opinions, interesting list. I found things like Marin Karin and Yukari's healing to not be that much of an issue overall, and consider The Answer its own enjoyable experience that doesn't entirely ruin P3's ending like people make it out to. If anything my issues in FES and Portable more relate to certain deaths that can get undone in those games, which takes away from the game's theme and message, but are thankfully optional.

@gabrielfarkas257 Жыл бұрын

I actually enjoyed The Answer too, it isn't anywhere near as hard (remember, grindy =/= difficult), seeing all the SEES member cope with the protagonist's death differently was GREAT (Yukari's a bitch yes, but her action was understandable for a mentally damaged 17- year old) and was the story's highlight for me. I always love when there's a conflict within the game's main cast. Of course it also answered many questions I've been wondering since The Journey ended, and Metis being Aigis' Shadow was a really great plot too. Unfortunately, I hated the Answer's ending. I felt that Aigis should've lost her memory after she found the answer to life and death, like the protagonist did, but sadly, she somehow came back. IMO it was the exact opposite of the Journey's ending and her "death" was cheapened as a result.

@earthboundism Жыл бұрын

I think anybody who complains about Marin Karin never learned that you can change your party members off of "act freely." It also will never happen if a boss nulls it and you have them analyzed. The party members are smart except they love to attack enemies that are already down. I think people who make complaints about only controlling one guy fundamentally do not understand the mechanics of the game.

1. Persona 3 Portable is the first game I ever played that got me interested to look on the franchise. I had been going through existential crisis in my high school life, but this game shown me that every life is precious and it not too late to seek the purpose of your life. 2. Persona 4 Golden is the first persona series I heard a lot back in 2020 and it the game that leaves a HUGE impact onto me that I personally love. I have been dealing lots of my life issues for a long time and I am always a loner; most of the times I thought I am inferior to others and that I didn't feel appreciated to my efforts or my existence. This game have the life changing scenario and I love it. It given the message that it okay to be who you truly are and it doesn't matter what your flaws are or what people think of you. I have been looking things like that for a long time and I never couldn't be more happier. Also I love characters in this game(mainly the Investigation Team, Adachi and the Dojima family), made me really wish they exist in real life and befriend with them. This game will always be in the special place of my heart. 3. Persona 5 Royal/Strikers is the heart and soul series I ever experienced, love the new changes. This game gave me a sense that I am playing the original smt series, because it shown the aspect of moral codes, independence. If you go to the third semester it shows that you have a choice what you determine to do for you and everyone's future. It gives the smt gimmick either those two endings you support during the third semester that none of them are bad, but doesn't mean it going to be perfect. The soundtracks is the most lovable there is. 4. Persona 1 and Persona 2 duology deserves the praise for their narrative storyline. I may not like the gameplay where they have random encounter system, but I do appreciate the effort they put in the plots and character developments. Despite the flaws, they put lot of hearts that made them recognizable.

Creating bonds with the characters in Persona 4 is what makes the game truly exceptional. You spend a whole year with these characters, and when it's over, you're left with cherished memories. For me, it wasn't about the story. Even after defeating the final boss, the game allows players to spend the remaining time with the characters, like going snowboarding. Despite some repetitive jokes, like the cooking scenes, playing Persona 4 was incredibly satisfying.

For me, I found persona 5 royal to be a tiny bit more enjoyable.

I liked the maturity and vibe of persona 5 more and I just liked morgana more as the mascot of the game. teddie just got on my nerves every time he opened his mouth. However, persona 4 is special in its themes and how personal the story can get. The cast really did felt like a bunch of friends out in the sticks and their bonds felt more precious than in persona 5. The setting is just perfect for persona 4. I can go on and on about persona 4 but ig I only really liked persona 5 more is really just the graphics and the gameplay aspect of the game. It's just a smother game to get through.

I really wanted to get into the first Persona (from the PSP remake), but I'd heard that the encounter rate is really high in the PSP version compared to the PS1 version due to them just porting the formula over and not accounting for the PSP's processing speed being much higher than the PS1's. It was an incredibly frustrating grindfest nonetheless, though, "Screw my luck" did happen a fair bit, and I really don't like how insanely limited you are in how many skill cards you can hold and how random the negotiation system is. I'm not sure if it would be best to focus on EXP or on skill cards for the beginning, as well. I do find it really difficult to know when I should start fusing Personas, but being able to fuse high-level Personas at the start even though you cannot actually use them is really difficult, as is the very fact that one's Persona level and their own level are two different things.

It won't hurt...". The problem is that i'm strange, because despite not having played it yet (can't wait for the global releases!!!), i think that P4G is probably my favourite game of the series, hell i even think that is also my favourite game of all time. I literally liked every single thing about that game (Marie was fine) with the P4 anime literally being the most hilarious thing i've ever watched (the original, not the Golden adaptation, since i heard that is such a downgrade that is almost heartbreaking).

P4G (Great messages, awesome mystery, incredible cast, and my favorite social link selection of all of the games) 3. P2 IS (Sublime narrative, great cast, albeit sort of eh gameplay overall) 4. P3 (Great story and characters, good gameplay overall. As you said, the peaks are probably higher than anything in P5R, but those valleys really are quite low.

It's always good to see people praise persona 4. Although it isn't my favorite I really enjoyed it. P5 takes the cake for me because I felt really good about the characters and their stories. The Sun and the Hierophant social links were some I really liked. The Royal part was also very well done, although the faith link _could've_ been explored more in the early game in my opinion. The second best for me is P3 mainly because of the story (I'm excluding the answer here) and nostalgia for being my first Persona(and SMT) game, it really felt like a true hero journey and it offered clousure in some aspects where most games don't touch. Although it reaaaaally grinds my gears to have your sacrifice seem taken so lightly when characters talk about it in Persona 4 Max Arena (with the exception of Elisabeth, her stand in the whole thing is something I appreciate). Slightly behind comes P4. To be honest, I really liked loved that game, but _something_ didn't click with me. There is that slight sense of disconfort with some party members that I can't really put my finger on. It's the kind of thing like, you know these people are nice but _you_ can't seems to get well with them. In my case, it was Chie and Yosuke. I love the cast to bits, but I get weirded out bit by those two. I played both P2 and P1 on the PSP and although I liked the games and story, the gameplay took a bit of the shine. Still would recommend them though.

I think it's interesting that some people seem to dislike Answers so much. Personally I really like the things it did for the story and characters dealing with the fallout of the main game's ending. For example while some people coming to dislike her portrayal, I really like Yukari's arc in Answers in how it parallels her issues with her mother and father in the main game in an interesting way. In Answers, her troubled relationship with her friends after her recent loss mirrors her troubled relationship with her mother in the main game after her father's death, and her drive to see and bring back Makoto again no matter the cost in Answers mirrors her desire to uncover the truth of her father to bring back his good name in the main game. Her arc also parallels and subverts her own Persona Isis's mythology, of journeying to picking up the pieces of her deceased loved one to resurrect him. In the main game Yukari succeeds in picking up the pieces of the truth and restores and reaffirms the ideal father she has always believed in, a journey of vindicating her faith in the face of doubt. While in Answers this myth is subverted with her failing to attain the pieces (the key) and bring back her loved one, but she gains the truth that gives her greater understanding and dispels her held beliefs over her loved one, a journey of enlightenment or answers. I love both the symmetry and complementary nature of these two journeys that Yukari goes through. Yukari's one of my favorite Persona characters for this reason, as Answers I feel make her feel defined and complete. I hope one day you'll play the game again and do a deep dive on Persona 3's plot and perhaps explain your own perspective on Answers specifically, (maybe when the game gets the inevitable remake?) I'd love to watch a video like that!

My own ranking of the Hashino era Persona games. Since I kept forgetting to emulate the p1 and 2. At the bottom is P5. I definitely like certain things in P5. It has one of my favorite characters in Persona and has the strongest start to a Persona game. But, the game I find it the easiest out the three. It's aesthetic is very good but, I do prefer the art direction of Catherine over P5. Music is good, so good that everyone uses it and I hear it every commentary video I watch. But, I have to say the space palace music does not vibe with me. Vanilla 5 is plagued with bad pacing has after the Pyramid Palace. My first playthrough near the endgame was just me wanting the game to be over. I even tried a second playthrough two or three years ago but, stopped just before getting Haru. But, this placement is really based on my personal burnout on P5. Maybe when 6 comes out, I'll be able to see it in new light. In second is P4. P4 is a very comfy game. The use of yellow being the main color give off a nice warm. Almost nostalgic even. Characters are good but, the main plot tends to heavily under utilize them. To the point you could remove them from the later parts of the story and nothing would be different experience wise. The soundtrack is great (signs of love is best home theme) but, P4 has my least favorite random encounter music. P4 feel like a game I can chill out and take my time with. Oddly enough, I think 4 was the hardest in terms of difficulty for me. I don't know why. I already played 4 twice so, I might get it Golden on switch. P3 is my all time favorite. I never really had a problem with the command style in battle. Even if a party member did something undesirable, it was always something minor. The only time something really bad happen was with my second or third playthrough fighting Nyx. Aigis got charmed and fully healed the Nyx (if I remember). It was the final boss and the game wasn't that hard for me so, I didn't find it unfair. I feel that most of the characters and themes are weaved so well together. Party members have such sense of individuality in the plot Having their arc happen throughout the story. And even in gameplay. Sometimes Yukari goes to hang out with friends and isn't available to go into Tartarus. Characters just seem like they're living their lives and aren't always there to jump up and go whenever you want them to. P3 just has a special place in my heart and will openly admit I am bias towards it.
