Persona 3 Reload Review - An Unforgettable Reunion

Thank you for watching, please subscribe if you like our content. Also, leave a comment and let us know your opinion. Persona 3 is my favorite entry in the series, so my anticipation for a remake was always going to be stellarly high. As for the result, Persona 3 Reload is a heartfelt attempt that modernizes several gameplay, story, and character elements to varying levels of success. The expanded and added scenes of the main cast, as well as the increased divulging of story developments, coalesce to create a distinct interpretation of Persona 3 that’s worth experiencing for both veteran fans and first-time players. Additionally, the new soundtrack, fully-voiced Social Link scenes, and other facets emphasize the initial appeal of this title. However, on the other side of that coin, the gameplay alterations, while great for convenience, drastically lower the difficulty and ultimately rid some of Persona 3’s identity in ways that cater to prospective new players first and foremost. Further, the exclusion of The Answer from Persona 3 FES is a criminally missed opportunity, making this release less definitive. What should be known above all else is that Persona 3 Reload is not a replacement for any other version of Persona 3. It is, instead, a fresh interpretation that cherry-picks features from the past to bring a new experience. This is certainly frustrating in its own way. Yet, I can’t deny that Persona 3 Reload is a sincere remake with bolstered characterizations and a rewarding gameplay loop that, even in the midst of lacking challenge, can be damn fun to embrace at your own pace. ● Read the full review here: A review code was provided by the publisher for review purposes. ● Noisy Pixel Patreon ● Closing Theme: Alex Valles ● Background Music ● Noisy Pixel Discord ● Website ● Social Media: ● Listen to our Podcasts: Unqualified Game Chat: Pixel Perfect: (coming soon!) #Persona3Reload #gamereview
