    Hopefully it’s harder (on the hard difficulty settings) than P5R is. Hard in P5R kinda hits the apex of its challenge with the 2nd dungeon’s boss and the Merciless mode actually makes the game really easy.

    Wouldn’t mind if the protagonists were older too. Maybe college aged? I’m in my 40’s! It’s hard to take seriously the difficulties of teens that haven’t even had to deal with the misery of the adult world yet.

      Might be luckier with the SMT’s then the Persona’s but even then teenage protags are still a staple. The recent two Like a Dragon games both have a middle ages protagonist fwiw.

        I’ve only played 5 and it was the typical teen boy becomes a god and changes the world kinda thing. I wish JRPGs would escape that crap but I guess it’s part and parcel of the genre.
