Is Persona 1 Worth It?

Persona 1 started its life as a spin off title to the Shin Megami Tensei series using a lot of common elements like the dungeon crawling but introducing new ones such as persona and a high school setting. Even though this was mildly successful it wasn't until Persona 3 that the series took off with the hyper stylized graphics, fun characters, social links and music. So does that make the first game bad? Is it still worth playing? Well check out this review where I find out if Persona is worth it!

Yo, I’ve been a persona fan for a while now and I always wanted to get into the first one and I think I’ll try it out! By the way great work on this video i enjoyed the information and will be emulating 1 soon.

Thank you so much!! I was a huge persona fan that had never played a game until I bought the dancing ones hahaha I loved watching videos about the lore and story so I finally convinced myself to play it.
If you are just getting into it, I do recommend the psp version. Some people complain about the music but honestly it doesn’t matter that much, I’ve heard both soundtracks and they both have highs and lows and represent different scenes better and worse. The thing is though, the quality of life improvements are much more important. And it has the complete game. If you do end up playing it, let me know what you think!

Like many I started with 5, but fell in love with the series, since have played 5R and 3R, all were great. Had wondered ever since if it was worth going back and playing the originals, but figured as you said it feels like it would be rough not having those quality of life imrpovements, nice to have that confirmed. Hopefully they remake all of the other games like they did with 3!

Seeing as how there are rumours of 1 and both 2’s getting a remake maybe it would be good to wait but the PSP versions are so drastically different from 3,4 and 5 that if you come at it with the mindset of it being its own game, not “persona” it might work for you. I still haven’t played anything past 2 so I can’t fully compare but I had so much fun with 1 and 2 annoyed me but I loved how insane the story was. If it wasn’t for the fan translation of 2 Eternal Punishment PSP I wouldn’t have finished it as I wasn’t having fun as I lost the QOL going from psp to ps1.
Long story short, give persona 1 a try not thinking it’s persona and see if you like it 🤣

Thanks for the video, I was thinking about playing this after i finished Devil Survivor but i wasn't sure

[@Lytane]

You are more than welcome! Did you end up deciding to play this or skip it?

@@Lytane I'm definitely gonna give it a go, I want to give the alternate paths for Devil Survivor first as i've heard they're different. But i gotta see how the persona series began myself
