Been playing Persona games since the 11th november. First Persona 3 FES, then ultimax, and lastly Persona q. It's nothing I planned, honestly. It just kinda happened. Boy, am I glad it did! One of the best months in gaming I've had in a long time, and that's comming from someone who hasn't gone into alpha sapphire and Smash Wii U yet. 100% Persona q's fault on that.

So what did I think of Persona q, then? It's a fanservice game, nothing more. Aigis can equip Yoshitsune and perform orgia mode boosted Hassou tobis, what more do you need to know? Seriously, Debilitate the enemy, Heat riser Aigis, Power charge, orgia mode, Hassou tobi, 8 strikes dealing about a thousand damage a piece. It makes any fight anticlimactic. It's how I pwned the final boss. It's a shame the Persona 3 didn't interact much with Aigis in the P3 side of the story. Still, it's a fun spin-off and feels like a Persona game all things considered. It played well, the music was superb, the character interactions were really good even if they were out of character at times. Recommended for the fans only. Keep your sense of humor intact when you get it.

Yes, I picked the P3 side. Screw 4, Persona 3 for life. Not really, but y'know.

I hereby declare november "Persona month", and 11th november "Persona day". All to comemorate this crazy month I've had. Or rather, 3 weeks. It's by no means a holiday, but meant to bring attention to this great series, unless they screw it up. Autumn goes well with the madness that is Persona, at least 3 and 4. Will have to "celebrate" it next year by playing some Persona again. Or something.

Now to finish up the little that's left of Persona q. No idea if I'll play through the P4 side, though it's tempting because the P3 protagonist will interact with Aigis a bit. Then again, he speaks. Yech. No Persona protagonist should EVER speak, but I understand they had to work it out somehow. Still, I've always had a hard time imagining Yuri Lowenthal's voice coming out from that mouth. Skilled as he is, some voices just don't fit. Meh, I'll give it a chance.

By the by, I sincerely recommend Q-tip's album The renaissance. One of the best albums I've heard in a while. Heard it when it was new, but it was evidently too awesome for me back then as I barely remember it.

Sorry for not writing as I hoped, Persona q happened.

Alpha sapphire and Smash Wii U left.
