This is a great game to start off with if you're coming from the Persona series over to Shin Megami Tensei. While the combat system is newer than the older games, it still acts as a great jumping point for getting into the rest of the series if you choose. There's a great amount of replayability that inspires you to revisit and get different endings, an infinite amount of team formations, and so much more that the game offers. Next to Metaphor this was one of my favorite games of 2024, and I absolutely cannot recommend it more for any JRPG fans.
