This review is a direct comparison between Persona 3: FES (2007) vs Persona 3: Reload (2024). Overall, Reload dropped the ball on many aspects that made Persona 3 worth remaking to begin with. Things Persona 3 FES does better than Reload: 1. Story 2. Script/Dialog (about 80% has been changed in Reload. The new translation is void of soul, fun, charm, interpersonal conflict) 3. Character Personalities (Junpei, Yukari, etc) 4. Anime Cutscenes 5. Darker Tone 6. Music (both arrangement and mixing) 7. Sound Design (much more raw and heavy) 8. Voice Acting (it's not even close dude) 9. Difficulty (Reload battles are a joke) 10. Body language between characters during dialog Things Reload does better than FES at: 1. QOL updates 2. Faster traversal through city 3. Menu UI 4. Nice extra content 5. Social Links *Stuff that is a tie * 1.The battle system UI and updates 2. Graphics (Reload feels somewhat cheap and weightless. It's more on brand with the low budget modern Digimon games than Persona 5) Many people don't know that Reload changed about 85% of the script from P3 FES. The main characters and their interactions are so bland now. Overall, Reload has added extra content while taking away or minimizing the reason (story/characters) people wanted a Persona 3 remake to begin with.

An amazing remake of Persona 3. The visuals are top notch and the gameplay has been improved compared both to FES and Portable. It lacks the answer for now however. FEMC isn't a likely return at all even as dlc.

I had played the original Persona 3 game before this but wow was it so much fun seeing it get revamped—the battle mechanics were a lot more fun and I loved the new updated sprites. Definitely recommend for anyone that is a fan of the series or even if you're new the game!

I love this game! Anazing music, fun gameplay, and beautiful visuals.

this was the first persona game for me, but the portable version, this remake its perfect, in some areas it a little bored and repetitive, but in the end its a great game and has a great history too. it doesnt have the answer from ps2, it is a extra dlc
