Is metaphor refantazio any good or is it lib?

It's pretty liberal sadly, but it's still worth playing if you are into Persona-like JRPGs.

yup finished a few days ago, pretty lib, all the good guys are royalty, the bad guys are the church and a libertarian magician. Pretty standard jrpg fare tho. Fun gameplay

It seems cool, but I would not be surprised if it swerves into a lib stock anime plot somewhere along the way

By the name you might think it’s a spaghetti RPG, but it’s another JRPG

I'm holding out on it for a while I think because Atlus always seems to re release the game down the line with more content and better balance.

They always do these days, and they never offer the simple option to upgrade from the original version
- I think they've said that they will move on to a dlc system for the enhanced re-release
  
  Smt vengence is the last one
It is available on rutracker if you want it for free

lol if you're expecting a JRPG to not be lib. My favorite series is Trails and let me tell you, it's fucking lib even if it has fleeting anti-imperalist themes.

Haha yeah I love in hope :yea:

I'm playing through still and am disappointed to read other comments that it stays as lib as it comes across. I was holding out hope because there are elements of it that feel so close.

It's still worth playing though, it's a good JRPG experience if you're a Persona fan, although I don't think it's as mechanically intricate as Persona.

dangerously lib. the whole story is about how an evil royal murders the king to become king himself and you trying to get the real successor on the throne (because he promises to be nice and stuff and abolish anime racism against anime fantasy races). if that wasn't bad enough the game then goes full anime and turns the search for a successor into a magical anime gameshow where the next king is crowned by means of a magic popularity contest. it is peak "what never reading an actual book does to a "writer"". in many ways it feels like a giant step back even from persona 5, which even with all of its many many problems at least tried to tackle actual issues without hiding them behind layers upon layers of metaphor.

game also just isn't that great. combat is better than any persona game, but the main dungeons are pretty boring and the side dungeons get pretty repetitive pretty damn fast, there is so much that just seems taken straight from persona 5 without much of a thought (i hate hate hate that the game just has to include fast travel because they couldn't be bothered to write social links that actually work in the confines of the narrative they wrote) and then they also just didn't add any of the actual flavour stuff that makes the day-to-day gameplay comfy and the world feel lived in.
