Persona 2 duology is better written than any other Persona game, and I think one of three games I've cried finishing. That's not a "tough guy" flex, that's just a comment on how shallow most video game writing is.
Also you can be gay and fight Hitler. Tatsuya sweep.
Well it's the most hoped for remake in Japan after Persona 3...so here's hoping a P2 rebuild is on top of Atlus' list now.
I love the game too, but I even hesitate to recommend it to diehards of the genre because the gameplay is so dated. I usually say to watch a YT plot only video if anyone is ever interested.
