Shin Megami Tensei – Persona is a role-playing game for the PlayStation Portable that explores philosophical themes in a contemporary setting. Players navigate a narrative centered on personal identity and existential questions. The game features modern weapons and encourages negotiation with adversaries, allowing players to earn spell components through dialogue, enhancing their magical abilities.
Persona is a philosophical game that takes place in a world close to our own. It is a departure from the typical swords and sorcery, and it delivers a tale of dreams, the purpose of life, and who we are as individuals. In Persona you have modern weapons like an Uzi and an AK-47. And instead of always fighting monsters, you are given the opportunity to talk your way through a confrontation. By talking things out, you can earn components of spells the more components you have, the more powerful your spells become.
