- Persona 3 Portable
Ah, this was my very first taste of the Persona 3 era of this series, and I got to say I heavily enjoyed my experience with it. First off, the story was done fairly nicely, focusing on more of a dark tone, instead of being light hearted, which definitely made it hit ya in the gut a few times throughout the game.
Then it comes to the characters, first off got the SEES people who are all great, even the more rival characters are awesome. As well, the protagonists are pretty rad, especially fact that have option to play as FeMC. However, let's be real, the best characters come from the confidants in my opinion, with one specific guy carrying the confidants on his back. I didn't experience the full storyline of that confidant in my playthrough, but still did some of it, then watched rest on youtube to see the full story unfold, and yea that definitely was gut wrenching to say the least, but I absolutely love him.
Overall, this was definitely a fun, yet emotion inducing persona game, and I would definitely recommend giving Persona 3 a shot. Probably best to wait until Persona 3 Reload drops in February though just for better visual experience, to make the story hit even harder, and I know I will be grabbing that on release date to play through Persona 3 again.
