Greater leniency and eventual abandonment of the idea would occur in later Persona releases, but it was a memorable feature of the original Persona 3. Still, Social Link reversals will be able to happen in Reload, though it seems like they’ll be difficult to encounter unless you go out of your way to do so.

I've been playing it a little bit every day and I'm enjoying my time with the plot and the characters. I wish there was a bit more RPG here but I'm having a good time. I've heard a lot of mixed opinions so let's get them out!

I know everyone has that one RPG they fell in love with that will always have a special place for them.

Maybe it was never popular. Maybe it was a love it or hate it and had mixed reviews. Maybe it was a product of nostalgia and the time of your life you played it.

For me it was Saga Frontier on the PSX.

A game where you pick one of multiple characters and play thru the same game world on each one completing a different quest and seeing things from a different angle.

People would say the story is sparse, for me it was enigmatic and mysterious. People would say the battle system was obtuse, too difficult, or required too much grinding. I loved the challenge and getting wiped by it as a younger version of myself who wasn't ready for that level of difficulty, slowly figuring it out just made it all the more epic.

What's your game?

Silent Hope, an action RPG that was previously announced at yesterday's Nintendo Direct, had an interesting trailer showing some rather familiar elements,

This fall's looking as crowded as last year's was for me. The rest of the year is looking stacked, not even counting a half dozen games outside the genre I'm interested in.

Trails into Reverie, Nayuta, and Persona 5 Tactica are definite buys for me. Eiyuden Chronicle and the Suikoden remasters are theoretically coming out this year too. I'm also interested in playing Baten Kaitos again, though I'll probably put that one off.

What are you looking forward to this year?
