Just remembered a convo I had w/one of my coworkers a few months ago and it hit me like a fucking train yet again TT0TT

Me: You play Persona? Him: Yeah Me: Which ones? Him: Just 5. Me: Ok. Him: I didn't like it. Me: ???? Ok? Why's that? Him: It was just weird, I didn't like the gameplay. I also felt like the chars weren't that flashed out. Me: Ah I see. What about it didn't you like? Him: It was too same-y and grindy. Too repetitive. 4 looks interesting tho. Me: P4 is good, but you'll have to deal with the same grindy turn base. Him: Turn base? Me: ???? Yeah....you know.....P5's gameplay. Him: The one I played was more hack n slash. Me, paling: ..............................................................excuse? Him: Yeah you ran around hitting things! Me:.....y-...you....y-y-you mean.....P5.....Strikers?! Him: Yup that's the one! Me, clutching my heart: YOU STARTED WITH STRIKERS?????!!! Him: Yeah. Me, trying not to have a seizure: lkajsf'F'sdjkfjfaakjfkljfakljafkljdakfljklKJLSDJKFL Him: What's wrong? Me: I can't defend P5 in terms of char depth nor can I for Strikers, but to be fair to Strikers in this case....STRIKERS IS A SEQUEL! TT0TT You need to play P5 first holy shit Him: Oh...... Him: ....... Him: Oh! I did experience the original tho! Me, inhaling a sigh of relief: Oh thank god. So you played P5 or P5R? Him: Huh? No, I watched the anime. Me, seizing: kldsjfalkjafljafljf TT0TT Me: Nooooooo that's the worst adaptation too!!!! TT0TT Him: Hmmm maybe that's why I never finished it.... Me: Never fini-STOP I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANYMORE YOU KEEP MAKING IT WORSE! TT0TT Him: So I'm guessing I should play the game- Me: YES YOU HAVE TO PLAY THE GAME TT0TT "Chars weren't fleshed out." P5 didn't have a fighting chance with you! TT0TT What, did you also just start Kingdom Hearts with KH3???? Him: *inhales* Me: DON'T ANSWER THAT YOU'VE LOST SPEAKING PRIVILEGES FOR THE DAY! TT0TT Him: *laughs*
