Dex and Sloane... *sigh* The way their relationship is progressing so sweetly in each book. I'm so happy for them. The banter and, well, everything! It's brilliantly written
The relationships between two other partners is driving me a little mad too. Ash and Cael and Hobbs and Calvin. What's going on with you guys?!
I've gone and bought book 4 but I think I'm going to change it up a little first and read something else.

To really play this game and to get the full grasp of this game expect to put at least 150 hours into the initial game play. Persona 5 does have a new game plus which opens up other options and avenues for players to choose. Seriously though, my first play through was 153 hours. Plan to spend a lot of time in this universe.
That being sad, don't be scared! The game is visually stunning and the story line is unique and highly involved. You have character relationships, jobs, and side missions.
There is a heavy time management quality to this game. You make the choices to work, hang out, or go to the dungeon. The best way to state what Persona 5 is this: Time Management + Dating Simulator + Dungeon Crawler.
As the story progresses, so do the relationships you choose to grow. The main character will make a relationship with people the represent the major arcana tarot cards (so, 20+ relationships to juggle!) From there you get missions to save people from themselves. Some of these are accomplished in the major dungeons (7 overall), while the rest are in the peoples dungeon.
I love every aspect of this game. I had high hopes going into it and ATLUS did not disappoint.

The interaction between Amy Schumer's brother and the State Department agent he keeps phoning was mildly amusing but there was nothing in Amy Schumer's scenes worth a smile and her character was irritating and useless.
