The score was 9
thanks
Why did they give it a 9? You might as well go summarize it for us if you want us to not watch it

Many thanks
Homie doing God's work
So glad Persona 3 is getting the love and attention it deserves. This remake looks absolutely fantastic. The Persona series never fails to deliver!
Nah it does fail, all the time. You play tactica?

moron doesnt realize tactica and strikers have a different targeted demographic@@Loxly-ti4sq
Persona 5 has me hooked to this series, cannot wait to get my hands on this game!
Try out Persona 4 Golden as well if you have the time. One of the best JRPGs on the PS Vita, and it's available on a few different platforms for dirt cheap.
Play FES
Persona 3 is AMAZING!!! and FES is awesome with the expanded story. 4 is still my favourite though
Try persona 4 golden if you haven’t! I personally liked it better than 5. Such a fun cast
@TheCitrusPanda what you meant to say was One of the best JRPGs ever made period.
I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!
WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS 🗣️🗣️🗣️
They changed it in the remake
Okay, NOW!!!
Did you see that Shinji?
@@stopsliding8355They changed a lot, lol.
Can't wait to re-experience P3 through this remake, man. The original game was my childhood
Sounds like you had a pretty heavy childhood... 😬
While other people had SpongeBob, you had MOMENTO MORI 😆
Samee, It has one of the best themes ever and I'm excited to experience it again!!
@@violaman1145he was a badass kid for sure
lmao same 😂this game was like a balm to my depressed teenage soul back in the day
The fact that this comes out the same day as Suicide Squad is just icing on the cake.
Delightful
The name “suicide squad” also fits S.E.E.S. pretty well
Why? completely different games, completely different audiences. Not that it matters much anyways, not with all the bad publicity Suicide Squad has been getting.
@@VaultF True enough. Still, should be interesting seeing which one performs better.
Facts
Junpei's new voice actor does such an amazing job. Zeno Robinson was the perfect choice
Did the whole cast get recast?
@@poopikins yup
@@poopikins Liz isn't
Zeno is so perfect you’d think it was the original VA
From what we've heard, Fuuka's VA, Suzie Yeung, too
It’s a 9 but it’s a 10 for Persona fans.
Thanks for saving me some time 😂
no persona fans will think its a 5-6, they did more of a persona 5 remake than a persona 4 golden remake and they removed new game plus ( female character )
When they eventually roll out a DLC introducing the portable content it certainly will be 10/10
Dude wtf are you talking about 💀 femc isnt even new game plus and its only in portable@@nickjones1609
@@nickjones1609 FeMC was never in the original game dumbass, she was a Portable exclusive
Palworld, Tekken 8,Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth, and now Persona 3 Reloaded. Japan is hitting it out of the park for video games, and its only January
Japan never really stopped scoring goals.
It's only the western industry that is in such decay.
There are really only a handful of genuinely bad Japanese AAAs:
Metal Gear Survive is probably the only truly terrible one with no redeeming qualities.
Most Sonic games would fit here, but some of the worst ones are made in the US.
Street Fighter VI arguably does as well.
Balan Wonderworld is one more recent example.
Granblue Fantasy Relink as well. comes out tomorrow
Mf ranked *Palworld* in with Tekken, Yakuza and Persona lmao
@@Snowstorm... With how many records it's breaking on Steam it's actually a fair comparison.
This January is fantastic for gaming. Horrible for my wallet though.
After Tekken and Yakuza, this past week has been absolutely insane for games
Don't forget Palworld and Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown earlier this month either
Yeah I’m severely lagging behind
FF7 Rebirth comes out at the end of the month but I'm hoping to get this game out of the way first xD
Its a non stop year! Rebirth, dragons dogma 2, Refantazio metaphor, Rise of the ronin...
If you thought last year was one of the best in gaming's history just watch this one. Hopefully this all marked the beginning of a new golden age for video games.
Love this game. One of my favourites. I've had the dark hour as my desktop background for about 15 years.
That is very adorable!
That is very cute
Wow, I’ve loved Persona 3 since then, too. I’d bought P3P at that time. 💙🩷
Today is time.
You're such a a cutie pootie

Can relate
Persona 3 to me is a 10 by far. Can't wait for reload!!!
Too low its a 100
@@AloysiusOnuohamysticobitoo low let’s give it a 1000
Its over 9000
If you mean Persona 3 FES, yes, it is 9.5/10
10/10 for me. FES is currerntly my favorite video game oat@@VaultF
Going to lean on this game going through a recent loss two days ago.
Sorry to hear
@@kefkapalazzo1 thank you very much
Take care of yourself and play some Persona! Wishing you well.
Take care and make sure to chill (: Persona 3 also could be a very hopeful game to go through when experiencing loss
Give yourself some space to feel what you need to feel though. Finding comfort in gaming is fine, distracting yourself from the pain is just pushing it away. It will come back. Just saying don’t binge all day to numb yourself, it won’t help as much as you think if at all.
Man, Japanese games are carrying so hard right now.
Japanese media in general. Hollywood is dead
Meanwhile, Suicide Squad is releasing and no one cares lmao. It's over for the west.
@@tbnwontpop8857GTA 6?
@@tbnwontpop8857”It’s over for the west”, they said for the one millionth time.
Hard to argue. There’s Persona 3 at the beginning of February, FF7 Rebirth at the end of the month, plus Dragon’s Dogma 2 and Rise of the Ronin coming in March. Lots of reasons to be excited!
P3 FES blew my teenage mind, looking forward to this! Been a long time coming.
It's a shame Reload doesn't include everything that was in FES.
@NANA-kf1cs With the remake, not having everything from FES is like making a big miraculous interception in NFL football in the final play of the game, rushing through the opponent team's endzone to possibly make the big game winning touchdown only to get tackled and knocked down at the one yard line.
@@NANA-kf1csit’s got way more new stuff added to it and the combat/social links and everything else in general is a million times better. The only thing it’s lacking from fes is the extra story after the end which you can just UA-cam
@@hatchell18the fes addition was garbage anyways
Does someone knows if the social links unlock passive abilities other than arcana boost like P4 and P5? Haven't been able to find an answer online
No. Is like the original.
I’ve been waiting for this!
This and P4 were the games that solely taught me english. I'm thrilled to play this!
Nice review, thanks Michael.
Also they named the main character Charlie Tunoku from @GiantBomb endurance run of Persona 4. Guess they were a fan of that series like me.
Iconic game imo, never gets old.
Exactly, imo their openings are always unique and awesome as well. But not recommended to try at home. ;p
Persona 3 FES was my childhood so glad it got overhaul to the HD era!!
Great review! Can’t wait to jump in!
The legend of Charlie Tunoku lives on.
If you know, you know... 💣
May he never die 🙏🙏💣
And Larry Bird Jrs.
"Piss piss....it's a real river."
Absolutely fantastic review, well done! Looking forward to this
I’m curious do the teammates you don’t use level up in the background like newer persona games?
did they make qol changes to person crafting? is it easier to know what makes what?
Can't wait to play this. But...They should remake some mainline stuff or DDS next, or shovel SMT5 over to modern consoles and pc. Shame they don't get as much love as Persona.
as someone who’s only played persona, the SMT games dont appear as stylish or polished as the persona games. idk what the major differences are but my fav part of persona is the social links and day to day sim, story/characters. the combat is meh imo. is SMT better?
Modern consoles ? Like... The switch?
@@thugbutter Where Persona is more stylized/story driven, SMT is more technical/combat driven. Persona isnt better per se, but more accessible. SMT is purposefully grindy and all about min/maxing.
@@Momoshiful no, smartass. Ps5 and xbox. Gotta know how to read before you act smart.
@@thugbuttersmt leans more towards environmental storytelling and gameplay, it heavily emphasises world building and religious themes over style. Grinding is absolutely optional, as there are many strategies and weaknesses that you can exploit by making use of smt's press turn systems.
Amazing game, glad it got the remake it deserves!
It deserved more, they completely omitted the FES content.
@@VaultF ohh you're right! Maybe they wanna sell it as DLC?
We got Persona 3 Portable HD remake last year
@@coveofpentagrams2671 from what they said, apparently they "lost the code" for FES. But yeah, probably they want to charge extra.
Megaten anyone?
i've been waiting for this
Shout out to Michael for naming his PC Charlie Tunoku. GB Forever.
Persona never fail in music department
Michael Higham adds so much life to a review
SMTP3FES is easily my favourite game in the series. This Reload just might go to top of my shopping list.
Reload has some stuff cut out that was in FES.
@@NANA-kf1cs They had to save a few things for 2026's Persona 3 Reload Golden Royal Etc
Comes out the day before my birthday! I’m so excited!!!
Better review than the infamous SMT V review where the reviewer didn't even seem to know what game they were playing and who felt compelled to let everyone know SMT V wasn't Persona 5. Get more people like this who have familiarity with this type of game to review these games.
While this reviewer seems to know a lot about this game he failed to mention that a lot of content was cut from this remake. Meaninful and important content.
ie just the answer? most else of base P3 is more than well enough intact @@VaultF
@@walter4180 "Just" Answer? Lol that is like 30 hours of content cut right there.
SMT without the soul
More suic*al younger brother of SMT series 💀
@@VaultF Not really, it is a remake of the base vanilla content, which said content wasn't from, and were from re-releases
Having only played persona royal and persona 4 golden this is a whole new game for me to enjoy. I'm really looking forward to this reboot of a game that was very dated.
💀 play a real SMT game bro
@@azophi no one asked. 💀
@@tbnwontpop8857 bro got filtered by matador in nocturne probably
Use buffs and debuffs
@@azophi sorry but SMT? You lost me.
@@azophi As someone that has been an smt fan for 14 years, don't you dare gatekeep our community. We don't claim you.
Great review Michael!
My first ever Persona game and my most beloved person game is getting a remake that makes me so happy
Never played P3, so I’m extremely hyped to get into this one day! P5 is still to this one of if not my favourite Jrpg
p3 has better story than all persona.
they removed a bunch of the story and gameplay with this remake unfortunately, japan cant make remakes well most of the time ( nier replicant as a result )
@@fargranthgodfrey5080p4g solo 😹🙏
@@fargranthgodfrey5080eternal punishment proves you wrong
@@nickjones1609re4?
This game needed a remake like this, thank you atlus
No, it did not. P3 is still as great as it has always been: the best game in the series.
It's this shitty demake that shouldn't have happened. Censorship + butchered art / OST is never justifiable.
@@GugureSuxlet me guess you never played the game and all ready judging it?
@@GugureSuxk

@@GugureSux Low quality troll.
Persona 3 is unplayable with his mediocre gameplay and dumb mechanics.
respect! Thanks for a great review!
Im so glad there was no complaints about the graphics.
Persona 5 was my last preorder back in 2017, this will be my 2nd.
Уже в пятницу.
Мне кажется оригинал на 10 тянет. "Перезагрузка" уже имеет фанатов не только с предыдущих персон, но и с самой третьей частти Fes или portable. Надеюсь на качественный ремейк, жду не дождусь пятницы
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!
А я жду не дождусь первых значимых скидок :(
Очень дорогая игра :(
Need the 100% guide to drop before Friday 😩
Person 5 UI is clearly the Persona standard now
Had no idea there was even a reload/remake version! If this has optional voice language, I'll go buy it right now.
If you mean if it has dual audio, yeah it has a Japanese audio track you can select.
2:36 CHARLIE TUNOKU LIVES
Nice catch
Cannot wait friday !
Just picked this up. Super hyped!
Looking forward to this one, always hear og persona fans saying its the best one. Found the old version too outdated to play all the way through so hoping this one is easier to get through.
Think it will be interesting to see what people think is the best persona once this is released from the fans that played persona5 as their first persona.
It's like SMT but with heart
Charlie Tunoku forever! Shoutout to Jeff and Vinny, the endurance run duo
Whats the name of the song that starts at 10:05?
In terms of games 2024 is off to a banger. So many quality titles in just the first month alone.
Granblue Fantasy Relink is superb. Another excellent title to check out
What about suicide squad kill the justice league💀
@@isimpforshiver Didn't that game get unpublished? Then doesn't count (yet) lol
@@isimpforshiverwhat about it? It will pass like Gotham knights
This shall be my first Persona game.
Enjoy!
Welcome aboard, friend
Welcome to socialdramasimulator.exe
Don't do it silly.
This DEmake is an absolute butchering of the masterpiece that is the OG P3.
Censorship, ruined OST and art.
@@GugureSux really?
Great review!!
Excited to play this for the first time
real music, animelike animations and amazing story as faithfull definitive modern edition cant be more excited to play the game!
Can't wait to play, been wanting to play the FES edition, but Reloaded will do!
The dog is an actual party member lol
He always has been. He's got a persona and everything, and holds a knife in his mouth. Koromaru is the bestest boi.
Cool, I'll wait though. I've seen this song and dance for years Atlus. I'm waiting for that port and dlc lol.
Just started and I’m hooked.
my first persona was p4, and its amazing, the story of p3 its complicated and dark (death, rebirth, sacrifice as themes, so..) but still love it, its my jam back in my highschool day.. love it!
Nice to see that some developers know how to do a remake
resident evil 4 tho
nah looks lukewarm
Too bad its missing an entire main character.
@@rjenyawdwho? who is it missing lmao
@@nickjones1609I saw the game, early access of gameplay it is indeed watered down, no pun intended but gameplay is definitely improved
When do they drop the sound track
My first Persona game was P3 FES, so nostalgia will make this experience even better 🙌
3:58 - OMG Aigis 😂
The Ost in every persona game is just 🔥🔥🔥
looking forward to the reload reload version with the FES content.
Dude named his main character Charlie. The Persona 4 Endurance Run lives on. Charlie Tunoku forever.
They need too do the remake of the persona 1 & 2 would be awesome come guys it time too realise them too the worlds. 🎉
Naa, p4 remake bouta be crazy tho
@@Ushinata-42 p4 doesn't need a remake tbf
@@FABIOZITO11 ik but it'd be great if we got one ik I'd buy it
fr persona 3 already had a remaster ( portable ) and 4 had one, instead of remaking 1 or 2 they just made a remake of a remaster
I'm pretty sure ATLUS wants to bury those games out of existence
Haven’t played any of the persona series yet and I’ve been thinking about starting soon so wish me luck guys
Super hyped 🎉🎉🎉
Was hoping for a 10, but I'll definitely take a 9! February second my personians!
Back to back 9's for Yakuza 8 Infinite Wealth and Persona 3 Remake, whoah Sega is on a roll!
Persona 3 my first persona game. This gameplay is going to be so nostalgic!
10:42 was where the hype all began with this one leak of footage
It is and always will be the best persona game.
We can’t know about «always will be » but it sure is.
*Persona 4 Golden
@@shivamarya5225 🤣🤣 not even close.
@@shivamarya5225 Persona 4 Golden is a masterpiece. But this one is masterfulpiece.
@@Jay_Walker92 well its just personal opinions, everyone has different rankings, some people put 3 on top, some put 4 some put 5, but we can all agree that they're all just awesome games
The Persona games made me love gaming again
Make sure to give Shin Megami Tensei V Vengeance in June a shot.
Will this be in the next Dunkey video?
I'm really looking forward to seeing how it holds up on Steam Deck.
The 'darkest and boldest' Persona yet would be Persona 2 not 3, still an amazing game though and a candidate for one of the best SMT games and one of the best Remakes we've gotten in general
Nah 2 was garbage 3 is the best
Persona 2 is an illusion. A game that doesn't really exist
@@michaelballack3051I won't let Joker create your rumor 🙅🗣️‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥🔥
"Still, there are valuable little stories to be found in social links, that either feed into the broader message about finding purpose[...]"
Ah P3... It's pink alligator time. Time to feel the big sad again. I'm coming for you Sun Arcana.
Can’t believe this is actually coming out
This if officially my fav persona game
Me omw to get finished off by "memories of you" once again: 🏃🏃
Burn my dread not being the opening bmg is the biggest error
Old ones can't really move on to their nostalgia, lol. Let our burn my bread remain in it's legendary status.
but you still hear some of it in this new theme, it is subtle but the beat is still there throughout the song.
Cant wait to experience persona 3 once more
Does anyone know if they remastered Brand New Days -The Beginning- for P3Reload ?
Remember kids this is fictional. Do not shoot yourself hoping a persona would come out
Asking the hot teacher out isn't weird at all. If only I'd had the cojones to do that back in the day lol
Can't wait
best ign review I've ever watched
Where is the granblue fantasy relink review? 🔥🤔🔥
Game is a 6/10
Cygames has a history of not sending out early review copies.
@@Argonian0727 say it isn’t so 🔥😩🔥
I'll be mad if "Tah Da-da-daaa! Junpei has Leveled up!" not in the game

Great game and throughly enjoying it.
