FINAL VERDICT TIME:
TWO THINGS IN THE 'DID NOT LIKE' CATEGORY I REALIZED NOT UNTIL THE VERY END:
- THE PLATFORM SWITCH THINGIES WAS FLAT-OUT NOT FUN AND ORGANICALLY I WAS REMINDED OF CATHERINE (ALSO AN ATLUS GAME, BUT DANG, THAT OVERARCHING THEME OF MAKING IT TO A WHITE BLUE EYED GIRL AND BLONDE IS SUCH A UM. IM TRYING TO THINK OF THE-
ITS SUCH A REAL GENUINE REFLECTION OF EVERY- WELL: 'HETEROSEXUAL' MAN'S ULTIMATE OVERARCHING GOAL IN LIFE; IVE SPOKEN ABOUT THIS IN DETAIL AND WILL NOT USE THAT SPACE HERE; ANYWAYS-) WITH THE PUZZLE-LIKE STUFF
- THE FINAL BOSS BATTLE, BY ATLUS STANDARDS; LIKE, THERE WAS NO BUILDUP SO WAS UNDERWHELMING BY THOSE STANDARDS, AND THE PART WHERE YOU HAD TO ALL-OUT ATTACK THE TOWER THING WAS VAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARY VARY VARY VAAAAAAAAAAAARY FAIRY-IN-A-VARYTLE EFFING STUPID; COULD HAVE EASILY STILL FINISHED IT (ALBEIT WITH 2 KOs) BUT WAS LIKE (na fq that shouldnt get 'penalized' for some dumb requirement-insert) SO SPENT QUITE SOME TIME TRIAL-AND-ERROR'ING IT (FAST FORWARDED MOST OF IT)!

ONE THING I DID LIKE, AND IDK HOW THEY DO THIS; WITH THE PRIOR P5s IT WAS THE ALL-OUT ATTACKS (NEVER GOT OLD) WAS THE FEELING OF ALL-OUT ATTACKS AND EXECUTING AND THE ANIMATION
ANOTHER THING I WAS SURPRISED BY WAS THE LONGEVITY OF THIS $49.99 GAME, BUT THIS TOO IS DAMPENED BY THE FACT THAT THE STORYLINE WAS SIMPLY NOT INTERESTING AND THE TOSHIRO GUY WAS EVEN LESS INTERESTING!

7.7/10 FINAL!

I AM RATING THIS GAME AS A UM 'REDUCED-PRICE' IN OTHER WORDS, NOT A 'FULL-PRICED AAA GAME':
OVERALL I AM NOT A HUGE FAN OF THIS GAME BUT I MUST SAY I THOUGHT P5STRIKERS WAS GOING TO BE A SHAMELESS MONEYGRAB MILKING THE SERIES BUT I THINK IT WON LIKE SILVER-MEDAL GOTY IN THE YEAR IT WAS RELEASED, SO IM ACTUALLY WILLING TO OVERLOOK THIS GAME (EVEN WITH THE REDUCED-PRICE) AS A VERYUMMM 'UNDERWHELMING' EXPERIENCE!
FOR EXAMPLE, IN EVERY P5 THE SOUNDTRACKS WERE AMAZING AND ENGAGING, BUT IN TACTICA I ONLY FOUND ONE TO BE 'GOOD OR ABOVE' NAMELY HIDEOUT 2
- EXTREMELY (FF16 COMES TO MIND WITH THE JILL CHARACTER BEING BORING AF LIKE A seunghuichokim LIKE 100% UNINTERESTING) BORING AND LIKE RANDOM TOSHIKI? THE politician GUY? THEN ERINA HAS POTENTIAL BUT IDK IT JUST DOESNT PAN OUT FOR ME
- MORE THAN HALF OF THE QUESTS ARE NOT FUN AND MORE ANNOYING AND BASICALLY FOLLOWING A VERY RIGID SPECIFIC PATH AND NOTHING MORE!
- SO THE ENDLESS DIALOGUES HAS A UM 'COMPOUNDING' PROBLEM
+COMBAT CAN BE FUN, ALTHOUGH IT'S NO FINAL FANTASY TACTICS OR EVEN A TACTICS OGRE, BUT ONE THING I DO NOT LIKE IS WHEN YOU HAVE OBJECTIVES AND THEN INTRABATTLE ENEMIES START SPAWNING
