Good turn based system, similar to persona games with a few original ideas. God tier soundtrack, graphics look a bit outdated but its not a big deal. Music, presentation, characters and story are great.

[b]TL;DR: I highly recommend this game! Epic story, stunning UI, great graphics, and solid gameplay![/b]
Petitioning ATLUS to keep this series alive! It’s a fantasy-themed game with Persona’s signature slice-of-life elements. Here are some mechanics I found fun and would love to see again—either in a sequel or even in the Persona series:
1. World Map/Travelling System
2. Overworld Combat for Persona-series ((to make grinding more efficient)
3. Unique spells & cast animations
However, there are areas that need improvement:
1. Turn Icons/Limited Turns. This restricts players from fully utilizing the maximum potential of archetype spells and experimenting in battles.
2. Summoner/Persona Master/Royal Dancer. A great mechanic, but it has untapped potential.
3. [b]The lack of romance dialogues/interactions.[/b] - Despite having incredibly charming characters, romance feels underdeveloped or almost non-existent. It should take notes from Persona’s approach!
Would love to see ATLUS refine these elements and keep the series going!

Atlus back at it again with a banger. Unique and relatable characters, Many locations with beautiful views to explore, and a great plot with many twists and turns.
One of my favorite takes on turn based combat, it's most similar to Shin Megami Tensei V, another Atlus title. The game was perfect for me on normal difficulty. I died on occasion but never got stuck on a boss, even on the 4 optional bosses at the end of the game didn't take me anymore than 5-6 deaths before I figured out a fool-proof strategy.
Kinda CHEESE SPOILER, but i found the strongest strategy in the game to be making Heismay into a dodge tank. Once he's max bond and you can unlock his best ability which is to end the enemies turn anytime he dodges an attack. Giving him Knight's Proclamation from the Knight archetype makes this an extremely effect tactic.

I can safely say it is one of those games that resonate with the player. It creates a sense of being there, journeying with the characters on their quest, and going through the emotions that they experience—the dread, the relief, the sorrow, and the hope. The final send off of the true ending hits just right; it fits so well that there literally is no post-game depression. If the game is on discount and you are hesitant to get it, let me tell you right now: do yourself a favor and buy it, you will not regret it.

I enjoyed this game a lot. I would 100% recommend with the caveat that it is still a jrpg. It tells an original story, but there are still some common tropes present. IMO, this just comes with the territory, and I still thoroughly enjoyed the story overall.
The pacing is much, much faster than Persona 4 and Persona 5. This is a very welcomed change for me as I feel like Persona games can let the main storyline come to a screeching halt, thus losing a lot of the momentum built up from significant events.
The blending of 2D and 3D art is very thoughtfully done and is very pleasant to look at.
There is a lot of attention to small details. The game goes out of its way to make callbacks to previous events or important considerations. It doesn't do this to the extent where you are rolling your eyes thinking, "You didn't need to point that out." The QA team did a good job on this game.
Maxing out your social links still takes some care, but does not require an online guide whatsoever. This was a HUGE plus for me. Having to consult the internet to maximize relationships in persona was a huge buzzkill for me.
The game gave me vibes from my early days with JRPG's such as Grandia II or Evolution. In a good way.
My playtime was probably around 100hrs. I fell asleep playing this a few times. I don't usually fall asleep playing games unless I'm having a good time.

If your a fan of turn-based rpg games or any rpg game you should try and play metaphor! the story is amazing and interesting with a lot of surprises that you wouldn't see coming, great work from the writer. The villain could be one of the best ones we had for a long time.
The combat would seem very basic and simple at the start, but then you get into Synthesis skills and the game combat starts getting more interesting and fun to mix and match different classes.

Great game! Loved how the combat was more fast paced and difficult compared to persona. The setting and story I thought was also very interesting and refreshing. The only really big downside about this game is definitely the characters and the reusing of dungeons felt very BORING. I would end up skipping through most of the dialog of certain characters just so i can just level up their bonds quickly and some dungeons i would just run through to get to the boss or look around for loot.

the story is great, the quality of life changes are great too coming from persona games. 10/10 would play it just for the story, and please play it on hard difficulty because it makes guarding and defensive abilities actually meaningful to use

I just finished playing Re:Fantasio and it was amazing!
The story was so engaging and the characters were all unique and interesting. I loved how the game explored themes of identity and perception.
The artwork was beautiful and the soundtrack was perfect. It all came together to create a really immersive experience.
I've replayed the game a few times and each time I've discovered something new. It's definitely a game that's worth playing multiple times.
If you're looking for a great visual novel, I'd definitely recommend Re:Fantasio!

A masterpiece from ATLUS. I played Persona 3-5 and I loved them. But this game really distinguished itself and outperform those legends. Although the story is quite linear and the plot is not as intriguing as Persona series. The Philosophy , the message , the lessons , the hope against our miserable world that this game conveyed to the player is phenomenal.
I highly recommend trying this game even at full price.
