    Excellent Persona-Like JRPG

    35 or so hours in, Metaphor is excellent, creative, and a blast to play. I enjoy the main cast, the general gameplay, the combat, art style, story, and OST. If you like Persona or SMT, this is likely another winner.

    I'm currently towards the end of the first dungeon and while it isn't exactly like Persona, it is similar enough with an interesting world to keep me engaged and playing. Combat feels faster for sure, which is nice. I'm excited to explore the characters more. Will update this after I finish.

    Game was available for pickup, no issues. My son says that this is the best game that he has played in a while! I am going to take his word for it, because I don’t know what is going on! So sorry viewers.

    I have played all of the Atlas RPGs in their particular style and common creature list with game mechanics that are common to all of their games. Metaphor is a departure of sort from the Persona and Shin Megami games, but remains familiar enough to feel like a natural progression. Its visually kinetic on screen most of the time, everything is moving. The soundtrack is amazing and I want it on vinyl.

    I generally haven't been sucked into Persona or SMT games, but Metaphor: ReFantazio is really doing it for me. The music is great, the presentation is really stylish and distinctive, I'm enjoying the story, and -- at least on hard difficulty -- every battle feels like a puzzle to solve. I'm only 10 hours in, but I am absolutely loving it so far.

    This game is amazing. If you like the Persona games or the SMT games in general, you'll love this. Everything from the animation style and the menus are very well done, Voice acting is on point and the ability to go from real time to turn based combat is awesome.

    It’s everything that one could ever want from a JRPG. Love the fantasy theme, great improvements off of the Persona/SMT systems. All round really fun, cool, and pretty to look at.

    If it wasn't for FF7 Rebirth, I would have voted for this game to be game of the year. It's story telling is 10, the combat and turned based system is a 10, build crafting is endless. Only downside is sometimes you can go long swathes of 2+ hours of story and can feel exhausting. That's typical of Atlus games though. Must buy.
