    In the original you'd literally run out of stuff to do in the slice of life portion. Adding Part-Time jobs and just more activities to do with the main party in general is a huge step up.

    It's funny because p5 seems overwhelming with it's options! I think the biggest difference is the dungeons at night and can't overlap with social links so I'm not worried about missing them or not upping a stat

    For people who have already beat the original on normal I'd go as far as to recommend the merciless difficulty, since you can't change it to that later on. I'm playing on hard, put 30 hours into it and I've yet to see a game over screen, despite not paying too much attention while playing. The combat is a lot easier because you're actually controlling the characters now and the shift (baton pass) mechanic really lets you exploit weaknesses a lot more. And there's also the limit break skills. Card bonuses are a lot more frequent and choosing personas you already have now levels up every persona of that arcana, which makes acquiring good skills a lot easier. The remake also introduced light/dark spells that deal constant damage so the old ones are incredibly situational. I've also yet to see a hama/mudo skill from an enemy that actually KOs a party member. Party members also respawn with 1HP after fights so that would be even less of a problem. Combat feels a lot snappier overall but I'm disappointed about the difficulty, as I spend quite a bit of time crafting personas but never end up using them to their full potential. If I could choose the difficulty again I'd go with merciless.

    The best thing about reload for me is STREGA, they got more screentime and interaction with the MC. The bond episodes are also amazing especially Aragaki's, you get to learn more about Akihiko and Mitsuru there when there was only 3 of them, the activities in evening at the dorm are also amazing especially the group studies it makes you feel like a part of the team, in the original there's literally nothing to do in the dorm and you dont get to interact much with the members so this is a very good addition imo. So i would say this is the best Persona 3 to play despite lacking The Answer content in Persona 3 FES or Female MC in Persona 3 Portable, and if the rumors about The Answer (Aegis's story) will be coming as DLC I would gladly take it. I'm currently 50 hours into the game so there might be more things that I havent discovered yet, but so far I would definitely recommend it to a long time fan or a new one

    Little tip. Arcade increases a stat by 3 for your currently equipped persona. You can go twice a day for a total of +6 in a stat. Lilim and Palerider are only weak to light. You can get skill cards for any skill. You can save at the floor of the tower. You can get Spirit drain around the 20s of the floors and have near infinite SP. The sickness system is gone, and you never have to leave tartarsauce until you want. Grind the first day you can until you have all the shadows running away from you, and you can take the teleporter to a lower floor to reset the destructibles. Then go and do the arcade in the evenings until the full moon unless you have a social link you really wanna do in the evening instead of going to tartarsauce. Laugh as your stats far surpass the rest of your team.

    You didn't mention the soundtrack, which is one of the best things about this game. I'm a newcomer to P3 and this soundtrack rivals P5's. I honestly think it's the music that makes Persona such a comfy, compelling and immersive experience. I absolutely love this OST.

    Yes; you do. This version is so poorly made that I wish they had included the original. I found Persona 3 at a video rental store in like 2008. Picked it up cause it looked different from everything else on the shelf. Played it for 3 days and realized I needed my own copy, got it, didn't finish it because I discovered there was a special edition called FES, got that and lingered in that world for months before experiencing the most beautiful ending any of my video game selves had ever had before or since. From the first 5 minutes of Reload, I could tell that this was a very profoundly poor retelling of the story and recreation of that experience. Don't ruin it for yourself, play the original definitive edition, FES by any means possible. I implore all of you. Quality of life-wise, it may be difficult to go back to, but I have absolute faith and confidence that it is a substantially more rewarding experience than this watered down, incomplete cash grab.

    ​@cosmicwarrior1857 I'd say for me the first 5 minutes are probably worse for someone who played the Original. Its definitely different in tone and it doesnt havent that same tension building with the cutting shots with the building music instead adding dialouge in. The introduction of the mysterious boy isnt as good as they chose to use an in game cutscene. Also the scene of the guy in the cutscene that sees the darkhour and the black goo enveloping him being done in the in game engine was such a bizzar choice. Overhaul its great but some of the choices i found odd and felt like it took away from the tone.

    @@DanicaDaystar nah its actually like mad not really worth going back to. P3Portable maybe for the streamlined interface and FeMC, but there really is just so much of that game that is either infuriating or just kinda not well thought through. dont get me wrong, its a great game, especially for its time but poor party AI, repetitious combat loop, and boring mechanics outside of social links drag it down. thats not to say there are things i love about it that i wished later games would've done (party members getting sick or tired was a solid natural way of getting you to mix them up and make sure they all were getting properly leveled). i also simply have a hard time believing that you have gotten to the ending of the remake and seen how it was reworked. a lot of simple changes are hugely subjective but it doesn't inspire confidence in your argument when you admit to snapping to a judgement in 5 minutes. im just frankly happy theres a version of P3 that ironed out many of the very real frustrations the original objectively had.

    To me, the definitive version is FES because "the answer" is ... or should be the canon ending to the story. Also I am waiting since then for them to release a follow up ... release the seal and get the main character out of his soul prison. Instead we got the portable version, the dancing game, two persona Q and now this since then. I really hope for FES related dlc for this one.

I almost bought it day one, but decided not to mainly because of what you said, it's not really a "complete" package, and decided to wait a bit to see if The Answer will hopefully be released as dlc. Giving the track record of the Series: 3 had FES, 4 had Golden and 5 had Royal, I absolutely believe that there might be at the very least, a "complete package" dlc, with the female protag and The Answer, or at the most, an Enhanced Version down the years.

    As an old school persona player myself, I would like to provide a bit more context to a couple of points. 1. The fact that you could only control the protagonist (canon name Makoto/Minato btw) was not universally disliked, since it added an interesting layer of actually leading the group (giving commands, making a difference in battle, becoming a key figure in the arsenal against shadows). However, it turned a lot of players towards emulations of that game, because there was a hack/cheat to enable party control. It was still playable with just the protag being controlled, but you had to assign commands to specific party member (like focus heal or attack same enemy). Otherwise it was nearly impossible to strategize arround certain mob and boss encounters. 2. There was also the fatigue system in tartarus. Nobody liked that. Good players were even able to ignore that system entirely with certain builds and persona. Its good that its gone. 3. The Answer (the epiloge chapter) was actually quite hated back in the day. The difficulty had ramped up drastically in that extra chapter and some of the character/story decisions they made during that epiloge were... questionable? I will not spoil anything in particualar here, but some main cast character definitly dropped a couple of ranks on my tier list after beating that. The true final boss was a banger though... So, yeah. Even I like most of the changes. They keept the important stuff and removed a lot of friction.

    Thank you person who actually played the game. A lot of P3 fans hate the Answer. The story people like it or hate it. I like it. But the main complaint was the gameplay and how straight up grindy that game is. You don't have a Compendium and back then you couldn't pick which skills you wanted inherited so a lot of that game is just soft resetting hoping you get a Persona that's not ass. So if they need to completely rehaul the game to make it not awful to play, they should 100% do that. For actual P3 fans the consensus has always been to not play The Answer and instead watch someone's Let's Play or a compilation pf all the cutscenes. So to see people acting like it's a huge deal you can tell they have never in their life touched Persona 3.

    I first played the Persona series on Steam. I knew of it growing up, just never played them. I adored playing P3P as FEMC, which I chose to do as I usually only do one playthrough of such titles and her story was a bit more intimate. One thing I am wary or not keen on is the lack of "The Answer". Yes, the original version is considered to be a long, repetitive grind. It is generally considered to be a "bad part" of the game. But it IS the canonical ending, and gives the group their closure and motivation going forward. Reload was a perfect time to "Correct" The Answer, allow us that part of the story with better/new gameplay. I'm usually against "True Endings" locked behind paid DLC, but I would much prefer to see that down the track than for Atlus to pull a Golden or Royal and give us yet another enhanced version of P3 for full price. In many ways it wouldn't be the money, it would be the investment into P3R that would have gone to waste.
