Persona 5's PC port was well worth the wait.
My team of anime mind-thieves deftly jump across chandeliers, then take cover to avoid the gaze of a patrolling guard in the corridor that follows, zig-zagging behind him to initiate an ambush. As the jazzy soundtrack reminds me, he never saw it coming, and taking advantage of the weakness of the demon who lives inside him—a cute looking pumpkin in a witch hat—we tag-team attacks to wipe it out in seconds.
That fluidity and sense of style permeates every layer of P5R, which seemingly has an answer for every reason players might be bored of the genre. Its combat is comfortable operating in both an arcadey mode that has you chaining together weaknesses to clear boards almost like a puzzle game, and boss fights that require a thorough use of its toolset. Its story of teenagers rebelling against an unjust world of adults in modern day Tokyo feels refreshing in its parallels to our real-world.
Awakening to the power also decks you out in the duds of a modern-day gentleman thief, after which you take on the codename Joker to match your long leather coat and gloves. Having to publicly call-out the teacher to manifest the treasure of his heart so you can abscond with it, you and pals take the name the Phantom Thieves.
Note that I said"rarely", not"never". Shin Megami Tensei's obsession with near-endless dungeons continues with Mementos, a subway-themed proc-gen dungeon representing the generic shared consciousness of the city, with new chunks of floors to descend to opening up the further you get in the game. It's not optional either, as youhave to slog through it whether that's piece-meal or in one big chunk.
