Games like persona?
| Have you tried shin megami tensei or other games in the megami tensei series yet
| Danganronpa is a totally different genre and has much heavier tone, but it also is split to daily life/anime kid action segments. Also, you might enjoy The World Ends With You
| There are a handful of persona-esque games
Caligula effect and mind zero are the most similar
For actiony versions try akiba's beat and tokyo xanadu, they roll with some persona like concepts
| Considering that Persona is a sub-series of Shin Megami Tensei, I think that would be it. I have seen some footage, and read some stuff about them, and will definitely buy IV and IV Apocalypse when I get my 2DS.
From what I've read, all Shin Megami Tensei games, including Persona, deals with similar themes, and have similar gameplay mechanics. Those similar mechanics being RPG games with demon/persona collecting.
All the games are also stand alone titles.
| Persona has a lot of shit in it, maybe tell us what about it you want something similar to..?

Seconding.
SMT is great and mostly have similar battle mechanics, but the theme is hella way out there.
TWEWY is fantastic and have both teenage drama and supernatural shit, but its gameplay is really its own thing.
And have you played Persona 2?
| >>241783 I am looking for a game that mixes daily life and some other game genre. It doesn't even have to be an rpg. Good characters are also pretty important.
| >>241973 Ah, then don't play the other Megami Tensei games then. They got none of that.
The visual novel Amplitude is basically Persona sans the RPG battles. Its predecessor Freak-Quency is free.
Mana Khemia is a fun RPG/(magic) school life sim. It's a bit less serious, but it's charming. Its parent series Atelier might be something like that too?
Danganronpa puts the characters in a more dangerous situation, but the "fostering friendship" part is def there.
| >>241973 >>242003 Seconding Mana Khemia. Not a lot of hybrids like that. Persona 3 was very original when it started that.
The Rune Factory games have a life sim/rpg aspect but they don't have the best characters. I recommend RF3 for the DS if you wanna try them out. 1 was pretty shit and I never played 2, but 3 was pretty fun.
| Post this on P5 general. The thread is still alive we don't need 2 persona threads every week.
| Except this isn't general persona discussion, it's asking for recommendations. Get over yourself, maybe?
| >>242192
Wait what? General encompasses anything about the game, what's the fault in asking for recommendations there. OP stated herself that she just finished P5. And what's the point if general thread if not for contain any talk regarding the game?
| *point of general thread
| >>242242
Op's not even talking about P5, she just use it as a starting point. Either way, you can't pile everything in one thread. That'll just drown previous discussions.
| >>242277
Drown what again? That P5 general thread only has like 10 replies, and no one is really replying to each other. No discussion will get drown, if anything, this topic might spark some life to that thread.
| Please I just want us all to be friends in this thread :'(

| After beating p5 I gained a craving for persona and games like it. Are there any games similar to persona that you would recommend?
