Persona 3 Reload is a surprising dose of 2000s nostalgia
With Persona 3 Reload, Atlus chose the most confusing (and influential) entry to remake. There are some big changes you may not even notice, including the most voiced scenes from any game in the Persona series. The only way you can tell this is a remake are the anachronistic gadgets, like wired headphones, MP3 players, internet cafes and desktop PCs. Is 2006 retro now?
The graphical upgrade is the biggest change; the remaster takes advantage of technological advancements across the three generations of consoles that have launched since the original game debuted on the PlayStation 2. In Persona games, the battle dynamic hinges on striking an enemy’s weak spot, allowing for extra attacks and interrupting their turn. I’m delighted that those improvements include a “network connection,” also plucked from Persona 5, which shows you what other players are up to each calendar day, helping inform how you spend your time/help with the tricky school tests.
