Eh, on one hand it's overrated when people keep saying "it's a better Persona, those fans just don't play anything except Persona 5", I think that's stupid. TWEWY genuinely has a lot of flaws. A slightly too fast endgame, the second screen, etc.

But for me the gameplay is just so goddamn fun and well designed (making your own set of attacks, combining input methods, all the risk vs reward difficulty systems), and it has a few really good ideas that make me want to recommend it to anyone. I imagine you can beat the game in like, 10 hours on Easy without optional fights too, so, it's not a big time investment. (Though actually getting the game is difficult. Switch I heard sucks at controls, phone version doesn't seem to work on new ones, emulating the DS probably sucks too)

In fact, I thought the OST would be the overrated thing, since its style might not be for everyone.
