'I keep starting games and not getting anywhere with them. I need to stop jumping around and - ooh, Persona Q is on sale!'

I've just finished the Group Date Café! My notes are below, cut more for length than anything else; there's nothing particularly spoilery here. I'll be honest: I'm mostly just talking about my fondness for Yosuke.


Rambling about Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth. )


'You fix Yosuke with a gentle gaze...' WHY CAN'T I KISS HIM

I was really hoping the mysterious matchmaker would pair me up with Yosuke, but it paired me up with Koromaru, who is admittedly a pretty strong choice.

(Turns out it was all just a setup for the clergyman to try to murder us, so I did not actually end up marrying the dog.)

Some of the characters in Persona Q have better portrayals than others. Akihiko's portrayal, in particular, is a shame; it feels like the game has forgotten everything that made him interesting and endearing in Persona 3. But, overall, this game is fun crossover nonsense and I'm having a good time.
