I initially thought this game focused on single-player, but it’s actually online co-op similar to Monster Hunter. Unfortunately, the story mode is short and not that engaging, and most online raids or dungeons are already empty (you can party with AI). The game relies heavily on grinding — weapons, characters, and materials — which can feel repetitive.

Still, the combat system is excellent and the art style looks vibrant and unique. If you like MMO-style grinding or MH gameplay, you might enjoy it — but don’t expect a deep story or long single-player experience

Star Ocean: The Second Story R is a classic, underrated RPG that delivers greatness in every aspect
+An incredible story — full of twists, emotions, drama and revenge
+Party System: You can have up to 8 active members, but there are more than 8 available characters, so choose carefully.
+Relationship party member: Pick whoever you want — Claude × Rena, Claude × Celine, Ashton × Celine, or even Rena × Claude if you choose Rena as the protagonist.
+Dual Protagonists: You can play as either Claude or Rena.
After finishing Claude’s story, play again as Rena to experience the game from a completely different perspective — including unique different scenes.
It’s fascinating to see the special dialogues and cutscenes that only appear when playing as Rena.
+99 ending :depending on which party members you recruit, how they bond with each other, and their affection point combinations

9/10.
It would be amazing to see a remake built on Unreal Engine someday —
but even now, it remains a fantastic and timeless RPG

Well, I’m kind of disappointed.
-The romance scenes didn’t really show up,
-and the ending didn’t explain anything
-The lore from the beginning until the middle was okay, but the pacing felt way too fast near the end, making the story feel rushed
DLC was quite good, but still no romance scenes.

But overall, the game isn’t bad.
+improved battle system
+special dialogue interactions and manga style cut scenes
+Tsundere Shionne

This is my second time playing Persona 5.
The first time, I played the Persona 5 on PS4 back in 2017.

A true masterpiece — the best story, social interactions with confidants, exploring the city, and dungeon

One thing I don't like about the Persona series is the lack of free-roam endgame content.
Once you finish the game, everything is gone
