Some puzzles feel like they were designed to test the player’s patience, and instead of adding more variety to gameplay, they felt more like a chore I had to suffer through before I could get to the big payoff with the main boss. That said, the dungeons and their puzzles did start to drag on and overstay their welcome as I got further into the game. Each is equipped with its own set of unique puzzles, and they’re such a big step up from the randomized floors we used to see in Personas 3 and 4. There’s a castle, a bank vault, and a museum, just to name a few. The dungeons themselves have been cleverly designed too, with each one being a different location depending on the villain’s personality. This gives each dungeon (or Palace, as they’re referred to in-game) a twisted sense of evil. Whereas Persona 4 themed its dungeons around the hearts and inner thoughts of your friends and teammates, Persona 5 centers them around its villains. Choose to retaliate with a physical attack instead, and your character will dismiss the demon swiftly before lunging towards the enemy. Hitting triangle brings up a list of your Persona’s skills and abilities, and your character summons the demon quickly onscreen with much finesse and little hesitation. There’s a certain delightful snappiness to the way the combat flows in the game. Your individual commands are tied to the different face buttons on the controller, so just tap the button you want, and watch the action unfold.
The user interface is red and loud and overwhelming, but combat itself is simple.
Mobility in Persona 5 feels less restricted than they did in past games – with a simple press of a button, your character can climb ledges, dart around corners, and jump to nearby platforms.Ĭombat is turn-based, but Persona 5 presents this tried-and-true formula in a fresh and exciting manner. The opening stage has you leaping from one chandelier to the next, as you attempt to escape a high security casino with a valuable briefcase.
Right from the get-go, the game wastes no time in introducing you to basic combat mechanics.
