[@TheDsLeet]

EP in English isnt too bad on Ps1. I know it still has some references to P1 but they dont ruin it.

[@shadesofnier1]

Well, P2 is still more of a Persona game than P1 that's closer to SMT, but the gameplay is still really slow and encounter rate is a little insane, which can make dungeons a bit of a drag on PS1 or PSP, but stories and characters are what make me still like this duology, despite all those other elements (also, P2 is easier than P3, P4 Vanilla or P5, so that also helps).

He went as ??? in P4A), With Yu, Souji Seta didn't grew attached and time later came P4 Arena and the anime. With Ren was even sooner and people were thirsty for a name and just grabbed the most edgelord name to be ever created ("A Killer Curse" does NOT portray the essence of the hero, in my opinion) that appeared in the manga, a piece of media that isn't recognized as canonically appropriate by Atlus, but the anime gave us Ren Amamiya and is used in P3D and P5D too.
