Sorry if it came off like "how dare they think that" or something. All I was wondering about is if it's actually like, a massive step down or something or if it's not that bad. If it's plot leans more to the darker tone of P3 or if it's lighter and softer like P4's atmosphere.

Just small general opinions really.

Massive step down. The animations are very glitchy and the plot's a big rehash of the previous games. And they only introduced, like, two new types of aliens

Unless you just genuinely hate the cast or the translation is a pile of poo poo, no, it is no way a massive step down.

Regardless of the people I know who've actually played P5 the opinion is largely positive so I'm not sure where you'reading all of this "it's terrible and everyone hates it" stuff.

I got lost in the Citadel in 1 and got stuck in elevator hell and then never played it again. Considered getting the new one as it's a fresh start but lol.

How is the cast anyways? Like how would people rate them in comparison to P3 or P4's cast?

Like do they actually gel or is it a group of hateful misfits who consciously block each other out? Do we have a character as bad as Ken? Is Morgana more Teddy or the rad dog who knifed people?

I like them more than the P5 cast. They're a rag tag group of societal outcasts in one way or another and come together as friends and a unit. Even the main character feels like an actual character in this game even though he doesn't talk much, mostly due to his more theatrical nature. I mean it's up to you I guess, but I can't think of a reason why anyone would like dislike the cast over something like P3's or P4's cast other than personal preference.

The music in the game is really good for the most part, but it seriously needed more tracks for important boss fights and Mementos needs more music because after the first visit you won't ever want to hear the music again

About three weeks ago I went to take my recycling bin inside from my curb, only to realize that it was gone. There was a full bin in my neighbor's yard, but it was filled with trash that was not mine. The bins of all of our neighbors at this time were empty. I searched high & low across my house and neighborhood for my own bin and could not find it. Later in the day, the bin mysteriously reappeared in my yard, and it was now empty too. I sneaked over to the neighbor's house, and their bin was also empty too.

tithin, what do you supposed happened to my recycling bin for that stretch of time it was missing?

Anyone know where the BGM DLC tracks are used? Would maybe make the mementos dungeon music more bearable.

Alternatively, if it's pure grinding i'll just turn off the music and play my own tracks/podcast.

The DLC tracks are combat exclusive, you do not get them outside of that. When I was burning through Mementos I would just put the drat things on auto attack and watch YouTube videos or something. It is seriously the most unfun thing in the game and the fact that it's so critical to both main and side content is a huge drag.

Since it's the random dungeon of the game it's just keeping the spirit of the Tartarus music.

Is the actual dungeon worse than Tartarus?

At least you get to drive around in a cool car ....?
