What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
I love that any party member can take on any Archetype and fill that role (though some characters are better at certain roles based on their inherent stats).
Learning and inheriting abilities, mixing different archetype strengths, and optimizing builds makes progression feel constantly exciting and rewarding.
(2) Voice acting is good, but the best talent is wasted on minor or brief characters.
• Stylish visuals — Atlus’ best looking game yet
Controller support was also very good with my 8bitdo Ultimate 2 Bluetooth, and the Steam interface allows remapping of controller keys and all that seamlessly and everything worked like a charm, no different from console.
Played like 10-15 hours on OLED Steamdeck and the game runs fine with MetaphorFix, outside of some city areas in free time where the frames drop to mid 20s, the game runs at stable 40 fps.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. One more theme was raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and is not shown.
