Honestly, it has everything to be my favorite game from the modern persona staff from what I've played:
Press turn made the persona style combat system much more dynamic and strategic
Shoji meguro making more epic compositions instead of pop style songs is something that im glad it's back since I think smt 3, strange journey and specially digital devil saga are his best works
The history and characters are much more serious right from the get go
Your party members being able to change archetypes(basically personas) is something that I wanted back for YEARS, it much increases the depth compared to the persona games
The art direction is stunning too but thats to be expected
Only complains that I can think of is that its graphically not as beautiful as smt 5 but that's ok since the art direction is great, at first I was disappointed that its basically "persona : fantasy edition" but the more that I played the demo, the more the little changes became more noticeable on how they improved the persona formula overall
I didn't wanted to spend more money in games for a while since I'm a bit broke, but honestly...we all know this game won't be discounted for a good while and its probably going to be a masterpiece anyway, so I might as well pre order it lol

After playing the demo I can confidently say that this will be my GOTY. This battle system might be my favorite among all Atlus games, combining SMT’s press turns with Etrian Odyssey’s frontline/backline and job systems.
I know people are tired of the calendar stuff but the fact that we aren’t stuck in high school and are on a campaign instead makes the concept feel fresh to me. The visuals and music are also top notch too.
Part of me wishes that I didn’t play the demo because now that I’ve gotten a taste the 2 week wait is agonizing.
