Persona is more upbeat and psychological while SMT is more atmospheric and dark. If you like anime you'll like Persona more and if you like story more go for SMT. Gameplay-wise there's more to do in Persona games, SMT plays much more traditionally. In both you collect demons (called Shadows in Persona) but the difference is battle systems comes from Persona having a card game at the end to colect demons while you negotiate with demons during battle in SMT. Sales wise Persona sells more, each iteration getting closer and closer to 1 million while SMT has stayed niche |
maybe that is why Persona became a more wide known game due to being upbeat and it is in the playstation. will check further SMT and Persona videos and i'll try to put in my wish list this year.
