Things to know before playing Persona 5
Posted on August 24, 2017 by Dan Zarzycki - No Comments
Persona 5 was my first Persona game, which was equal parts wonderful and brutal. If you are reading this and on the fence, let me say that while I couldn’t get in to Persona 4 Golden, this game had me hooked from the beginning. It is one of the best RPGs I have ever played and does a great job of mixing stylish combat with high school drama.
But that doesn’t mean I didn’t make a ton of horrible mistakes. Don’t learn the hard way how to play, as I did. Follow these Persona 5 tips to make the most of your time with the Phantom Thieves in Japan over your year stay.
Note: This is as spoiler-free as possible, so you can optimize your time, while staying surprised by story beats.

This Inside game review will be spoiler-free at the start, with spoilers on the ending and secret ending at the end.
It truly was a huge 2016 for the indie game and the indie developer. Chief among those games was “Inside” from developer Playdead, the team who brought us “Limbo” a few years back.
