Honestly if your game has to be played for TWELVE hours before it "gets good" I aint playing, thats such a shit defence. Skyrim was engaging in the first 5 minutes!

Does that mean Persona 5 is a bad game?

I was thinking about P5, too. Look it is one of my favorite games of all time but it's true the intro is super slow and it's hard to recommend to any person who isn't an RPG fan.

People have accepted JRPGs to be slow burns. You think P5 is slow. Try Legends of Heroes: Trails in the Sky, it is a 40 hour prologue to Trails in the Sky SC. (Incidentally my favorite JRPG series. Second to Suikoden. I like to think the spiritual successor to it. With its amazing world building and political intrigue plots.)
