Persona 5 Strikers. I figured the mix of Koei Tecmo and Atlus would be terrible for a franchise like Persona. Even though I pretty much always buy Warriors games or JRPGs, I left this one on the shelf. Eventually I got it for free with PS Plus, and I am a bit sad that I didn't support the devs now. The end result of the game was something extremely enjoyable, so much so that I want more.

Good to hear! It's a game I find interesting but there was no way I was going to buy it until Persona 5 released too. I've gone pretty much PC only so it was annoying to have Strikers on Steam since February but no actual P5. At least that's finally being rectified this month. I'll look forward to playing Strikers when I've finished P5

Oh man you're in for a treat, Persona 5 is amazing.

Strikers is quite good too, though I wouldn't praise it as highly as Farsala did there.
