What I Played Today: July 25

Persona 3 Portable

What the hell can I say? I love this damn game. A lot of my downtime is spent playing this game, and since my Sundays are mostly downtime, I’m playing a lot of Persona 3. Worst part? I’m planning on playing through the entire game again TWICE. I am a crazy man who likes roleplaying games, and I’m okay with it.

I did play through the stupidest part of the game so far today. There was the third main boss, the Lovers, who brainwashed the MC and his “main” love interest into trying to sleep with each other, but of course you’re not allowed to go through with it, and immediately afterwards the comic relief decided to get a big bug up his butt about the fact that the MC is perfect in every way, and sulks for a couple of weeks. I really can’t figure out why this plot point happens, since it resolves itself in a half-hour of play. Stupid fakeout plot point.

There’s also the 12th of July, where there are a total of FOUR cutscenes that the main character should have no knowledge of. It is ridiculous, as you watch a scene and then are forced to watch one after another. I got very impatient, as I had forgotten this part. It was a bit ridiculous, and really, none of the cutscenes actually were all that important to the plot. For character development, sure, but meant jackshit over all.
