Persona Non Grata

Me: Have you played any of the Persona games?

Me: “They're contemporary games set in modern Japan with a very refreshing urban fantasy take based on Jungian psychology and world mythology as opposed to Tolkienesque fantasy, and they're turn based but with a really snappy style of combat. If you can get past some of the anime tropes I feel you'll get everything from those games that you'd also get from a bioware joint.”

Paul: Yes I love them.

Paul: Persona 4 was cool.

Paul: 5 jumped the shark and the main plot made no sense, so it was frustrating.

Paul: 3 is a little too hardcore for most people, the story gets dark near the end and the battles can be so fucking unfair.

Paul: I'd recommend playing Persona 4 for the PS2, then P3 if you liked P4.

Paul: Idk though tbf, they are very anime.

Paul: I'm not sure you'd like them if you're not a little weeaboo.

Me: THIS HAND OF MINE IS BURNING RED

Me: I was listening to a let's play of KOTOR 2 and the guy kept saying that it reminded him of Persona, but not sure if he meant the subject matter or the awkward fan service.
