So lemme hit you with the TLDR before we dive into the critique. I absolutely fell in love with Persona 5 Royal. I haven’t felt this immersed in a RPG or its characters since Baldur’s Gate 3… which was only a few months ago, but you know what I’m saying. The combat, the art style, the writing - almost everything about this game is S Tier.

That being said Persona 5 Royal has some problems - namely poor pacing, especially towards the end of the game, a handful of horrendously unbalanced combat encounters (I’m looking at you Okumura), and just a general vibe of overstaying its welcome with a runtime over 100 hours just to complete the main story.

In fact, while I loved Persona 5 Royal, I really can’t recommend this game to anyone who doesn’t have a lot of free time. I’m an unmarried, childless full-time gaming YouTuber - so I have a lot more time to play video games than most people - and even I struggled to complete this game without sacrificing other areas of my life. So basically NEETs and children are the primary demographic who should play P5 Royal.
