better than persona 5?
it has a school setting. it has social sim. it has turn based dungeon crawling. but i suspect it has less features and less refined than P5.

The whole game is Mementos, there are no palaces. And way less to do in the social sim part. It's a 2006 game with a facelift.

Haven't finished the game, but this feels like a more monotonous and simplistic version of Persona 5 and not in a very good way for me.

Absolutly. Not less, this game not have any normal activities, how you say features. This game has nothing. This game not even have one single rainy day :D

Most of the time when you have free time you just go to sleep instead of doing something fun. I hate P3 because of this - no content. Even P4G that released in 2012(2020 steam) has more features than P3r that released in 2024. Is this what are they call a remake? Total BS.

Plenty of new features in fact.

It's just that certain people can't cope with it not being enough in their view and have to resort to over exaggeration to make them feel like they have a valid point.

It's for sure a bit in-between 4 and 5 mechanics wise but it's definitely not as bad as our resident grinch up there constantly makes it out to be, and all the games are very good for what they do and how they do it.

And this remake does what it set out to do with quite some additions that Mistie conveniently seems to forget exist when badmouthing the game.

Whether it's for you, I wouldn't dare to presume, different opinions and all.

This is ridiculous. Why on earth would you just go to sleep when there is loads to do? There's loads of content, maybe you haven't realised you can leave your dorm.

It's added new features from P3 regular but is still the same base game. This whole thread is predicated on you only playing one game anyway and I have so far played P4G, P5R and am 3/4 through P3R.

Games are all fairly similar, but I've enjoyed all of them so far.
Mistie is a lil special don't mind bro

Depends on which versions you're comparing tbh. If you're comparing Persona 3 FES to Persona 5 then FES is leaps and bounds better. If you're comparing the heavily censored P3 versions to the slightly less censored P5 Royal then I guess Royal might be better. Although at that point you're just comparing two inferior products. Gameplay wise the series has been almost the exact same since the original P3 with just a few features added each game. If you like the gameplay of P5 there's no reason you wouldn't like P3.

When you max out your social stats, hang out with the night confidants and obtain all of your teammates' personalities, there's really nothing left to do. Sure, you could grind in Tartarus or do part-time jobs, but they don't really mean much in the last half of the game, when during the day, your schedule is packed with social links.
That's unlikely unless you are following a min max guide.

Okay another defender of no content games. Whan else you can do in P3R besides Tartarus. social links+episodes, ways to boost social stats and job? Tell at least 5 for example, maximum 10 thing you can do in P3R. Otherwise, maybe I played my 230 hours of P3R too poorly and maybe I missed something? I played on ng+ where all is maxed, but why i can't find something to spend time doing something fun?

Well i'm ready to listen and learn, i'm waiting.

Game adds something new, but if compare to original you get nothing. Locations are the same, nothing you can do to spend time. In remake you gain as much new as you lose old, it all comes down to zero.

You know what i'm really sick that people think that this game is fine in terms of content. Can you open your eyes already? You don't see that this game has no content, you can't do anything in this game to get something useful for the character you play and for yourself so that you feel like you didn't waste your time. Where do you come from, why do people here pretend that the game is fine in terms of content, and that's how it should be. As a new game, as a remake, it should have been the best version, but it turned out to be a dud that imitated the original in every way. I'm not saying anything bad about the plot and characters, I like them and that's good. But what about the rest? Just compare the activities you can do in P3R compared to P4 and P5.

Let's say this is your first playthrough. How you can spend time in Persona series 3-5 besides links and battles.

P3R activities to spend time:
1. You can work at job. There are different jobs, but it's still the same, you just max different social stats and get money.
2. Spending time like Karaoke, movies and restaurants, but this is also to pump up social stats.
3. Use computer to get something useful like again social stats, improve dash, or improve hp and sp.

And... That's all?

P4G activities to spend time:
1. Read books to pump social stats. There are so many books in the game that you will only have time to read them all by the end of the game.
2. Cooking to get points someone's link of choice.
3. Working at home, or working at different places to get money and social stats.
4. Fishing.
5. Ride a scooter.
6. Go to beach.
7. Chagall Café to get useful skill card of your choice.
8. Meet one of the links at night to get link points.


P5R activities to spend time:
1. Train in home or in gym club - get hp and sp boost.
2. Watch DVD - social stats increase.
3. Play video games - social stats increase.
4. Create tools + social stats increase.
5. Cooking.
6. Making a coffee.
7. Working at home, or working at different places to get money and social stats.
8. Fishing.
9. Read books - social stats increase.
10. Juzz club - to get skills to your allies.
11. Billiard to increase damage.
12. Darts to inrease bonus of batton pass.
13. Crossword puzzles.
14. Play baseball.
15. Laundry.

How can you say that EVERYTHING IS OK with P3r with the game after such a comparison? Stop it guys you deserve better, every player deserve better content no worse than P4 and P5.

Least obvious and biased p4 glazer

You literally name the same things but phrase it with a negative tone if it's p3.

You conveniently leave out dorm activities that you def wont all have done by the middle of the game. You can also get "useful skill cards" in p3 in paulownia mall. Nobody cares about riding no damn scooter, and fishing doesn't amount to much either. Reading books is also just essentially the same as using the computer (boosting stats)

And stop being so pretentious about "lack of content". It's a 70+ hour game like are we deadass? Not to mention it's literally a remake, there is no obligation for them to create a dozen new areas; that was never the point. They already added plenty of new stuff but even so, they obviously had limitations and couldn't just fundamentally alter the game.

Idk why it's so hard for you to comprehend that a remake of a 2008 game (the first in the series with that format even), was obviously not going to be on the same scale as the most recent one. The point was always to remain faithful to the original. What you demand is a damn near entirely new game, which was obviously beyond the scale of the project; especially with p6 taking most of their time and resources

What is wrong with you? You are clearly a bad faith actor. What can I do apart from...(lists game content)

You played 230 hours, so you clearly enjoyed it, now you are just being antagonistic.
