soft pity system
poor optimization
The general sentiment towards Persona 5: The Phantom X is divided. On one hand, the game retains the appealing aesthetic of Persona 5 and offers a familiar combat system that fans enjoy. However, the gacha mechanics are a significant drawback for many, especially without a soft pity system. Additionally, while elements like graphics and character design are praised, the cluttered UI and lack of substantial story depth detract from the experience. Overall, the appeal largely depends on the player's tolerance for gacha systems alongside their appreciation for Persona's style.

Positive Points

  • The game captures the aesthetic and charm of Persona 5, appealing to fans of the series.
  • The combat system retains the essence of Persona, providing a familiar yet slightly simplified experience.
  • Players feel it is generous with free content, allowing enjoyment without mandatory spending.

    • Negative Points

  • The game implements gacha mechanics that are seen as predatory, particularly due to the lack of a soft pity system.
  • Some reviews highlight poor optimization for PC, with issues like lag and awkward controls.
  • The storyline is criticized for being weak or a rehash of Persona 5, and the pacing is often seen as rushed or poorly executed.

    • Mixed Points

  • While the graphics and character design are praised, the game's UI is seen as cluttered and overwhelming.
  • The game is free, which is a positive, yet the monetization strategies and level gating are off-putting for many.
  • The introduction of new characters and story elements gains some interest but also disappointment for not reaching the depth of the original games.

    • Common Themes

  • Many reviews mention the transition from a beloved single-player experience to a gacha format as a primary concern.
  • The rehashing of Persona 5 elements, both in terms of story and gameplay, is a recurrent topic.
  • Players either enjoy or strongly dislike the gacha mechanics, indicating divided opinions on this aspect.
