People say Persona has too many spin-offs. If they were low effort cash grabs then I would agree with them. But almost every Persona spin-off is either good or great. I think Phantom X is the last Persona 5 spin-off before Persona 6. So I can't wait for all the unique Persona 6 spin-offs in the future

[@connorharnage6697]

I doubt it's the last one since P5X is mostly being done by Black Wing with Atlus supervision. I do think we are getting close tho

[@TeryonTheHuman]

Persona 5 strikers and its not even close. Most of the other ones are worthless throw aways that do nothing in respect to its source material

Strikers was an amazing trip around Japan with the cast and new characters. I loved seeing those landmarks with the Persona charm. Also, the combat system was GREAT! I loved playing each one of the characters to unlock achievements. That said: DUNGEONS MUSIC WAS TERRIBLE. It didn't feel like Persona music at all and you can't change it! You can only change combat music, which was mostly fine. P4AU is also AMAZING!! Feels really rough around the edges on Steam, with tons of bugs and other issues (especially in high resolutions), but it's addictive and has a lot of content. The first campaign is reaaaaally repetitive, though. After playing it with 2 characters, you've pretty much seen everything. The second campaign is AWESOME.

The dungeon music in Strikers was bad and didn’t feel like Persona music? You’d be surprised to see that you’re probably one of the only people to think that way. Why? Because it’s good music. A lot of people like Loving Wonderland. Voracious Waltz is fine for what it is, but not too special. Singularity has everyone saying that it’s the best jail theme, it’s so good. Counterfeit Phantom literally has a Life Will Change leitmotif in it, how can you not like that? And Anti-Hero is freaking amazing! I can agree with saying Duplicitous Devil’s Castle is bad though, it has literally nothing to it. Can’t say much about Jail in Abyss, but Tower of Life is pretty good.

​@@catalyst539not to be a nerd but Devil's Castle is meant to be generic, bland and nothing because that's the point of the whole jail.

[@catalyst539]

@@WiiMoteGodYT I forgot that was the theme of the jail But even if I remembered I probably wouldn’t have thought the music played into it too

I just wish Strikers connect with Royal maybe they should update to Royal Strikers.

[@lostnnotfound]

​@@rebirth2526 it already does tactica connected they already

[@nico.delmundo]

unpopular opinion. but p5strikers is my favorite persona game period. mainline games included. yes I've played and 100% completed whatever game you're about to rebuttal this with. idc p5s was so good

[@Frootcubes]

You put the wrong song name for the last song on the list.. it's actually twist of fortune by magnus ringblom. Putting this out there for anyone else whose interested in the music of the video!

[@doctorshiki20]

Other very good turn based strategy RPGs that he did not mention if you are interested: Valkyria Chroinicles 1-4, Disgaea 1-7, Tactics Ogre (remaster on steam), Final Fantasy Tactics.

persona 4 arena because of sho minazuki (I am a sho minazuki apologist and his no.1 fan)

persona 3 dancing because makoto in a maid dress

[@AzureDragonZX]

Even after completeing Persona 3 Reload, I would still say Persona Q is my overall favourite game in the franchise. (I know... It's an opinion NOBODY would agree with.)

[@WateruEater]

Q or Q2?

[@christianmckee2116]

Awesome list, dude! If I had to rank the Persona spin-offs, I'd rank them like this. 1. Persona 5 Scramble/Strikers 2. Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth 3. Persona 4 Arena: Ultimax 4. Persona 4: Dancing All Night 5. Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth 6. Persona 4 Arena 7. Persona 5 Tactica 8. Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight 9. Persona 5: Dancing in Star Light

[@funmylife9248]

Glad to see the Q series get some love!

[@christianmckee2116]

@@funmylife9248 Same! They're not perfect, but they're fun crossovers between Persona and Etrian Odyssey. Speaking of Etrian Odyssey, I recommend checking out the series in your free time. Etrian Odyssey Nexus is a great starting point!

[@funmylife9248]

@@christianmckee2116 I really should look into that series! Do you recommend I start with the first game?

[@christianmckee2116]

@@funmylife9248 I would recommend it, but specifically the HD Switch version. I'm not sure if Untold would be up your alley since it's quite different from the original. Otherwise, start with whichever one you think is interesting. The best thing about Etrian Odyssey is that outside of some references, they're all pretty self-contained!

@@christianmckee2116 Alright, good to know! I appreciate the recommendation
