Played a bit of Theatrhythm Final Bar Line!
Went back to clear the last DLC (FF16) on Expert and Ultimate. With this I achieved my main goal for this game - while there's still the Supreme ("Extra Hard") difficulty left to do I'm not sure I want to try beating it.
Current Stats: Expert: 523/523, Ultimate: 523/523, Supreme: 16/232, Cards: 1225/1225, Level 99: 104/104, Quests: 100%.
Playing Persona 5 Tactica!
One thing that really impressed me when I played P5 Strikers earlier this year was its strong story, it felt like a proper sequel to P5, not just a spin-off. Unfortunately, this is not the case for P5 Tactica - while the story is still decent, it's more in line with other spin-offs like Persona Q, a side story focused on the new characters (in this case, Erina and Toshiro) where the Phantom Thieves are along for the ride.
That being said, I'm having fun with this one. It's very much a "light" tactical game, asides from some puzzle-like optional quests the game has been quite easy, but it's nice and polished and has interesting mechanics.
The battles are on the short side, you only use three characters at the same time and they're usually over in a 5-8 turns, which makes it a good game for short gaming sessions. Performance on the Switch has been solid overall, the only thing I have to complain are mildy annoying loading times when starting a stage (~10-12s).
Spoiler for late-game mechanics, nothing story-related
Late-game stages expand to four characters at the same time, though the 4th slot is fixed and is a character with modified mechanics compared to the main cast.I just finished Mission 45 and I believe I'm on the final stretch, expect to finish this one either today or tomorrow.
Congratulations on completing Theatrhythm!
P5T sounds fun, but I still have to play P5...
