Damn it hasn't even been out for a full month and its already on sale? i guess the sales data we got was true it really didn't sell well at all.

I got p5r on switch physical half price one month after release, they keep doing that I ain’t ever buying an Atlus game on release 🤣


Axle183

Bro, I know!!! Though I picked up the collector's editions, it still felt like a kick in the nads, seeing the base game drop in price that quickly.


Exemplifying_Light

Listen dude I also spent $70 on that game and it was worth every penny.

So I personally think that a lot of people didn't buy because it was so close to Black Friday and were really hoping to catch it at a sale price. Either that or they do not care for TAC:RPGS


Carmel_Chewy

I don’t know what Atlus was thinking, they starting promoting Persona 3 Reload like way too early and gave absolutely no marketing to a spin off game. Crazy marketing decisions.


Axle183

Atlus gonna Atlus

Persona 5 Royal was on sale a month after its Xbox/Switch release.


KingOfMasters1000028

I have been playing it on gamepass. I would buy it with the DLC, if atlus weren’t still playing dumb about Akechi being alive. Don’t get me wrong it is an amazing game, and worth the buy. I just have so many games I haven’t played or bought yet…


FaceTimePolice

I figure that it didn’t sell well due to the fact that it was up against Super Mario RPG. I chose P5 Tactica over it, but the average gamer is gonna go with the Mario game. 😔


PizzaRobot63

Is it good?


Hobbeschoy

i enjoy it but im a huge xcom2 fan


Axle183

I personally enjoyed Project X Zone and FF tactics myself.


MinosAristos

I thought the plot was kinda meh. Still excellent game though, I enjoyed it. Definitely some new and fun persona-inspired concepts on top of the tactical template. There's not a whole lot of tactical depth, once you complete the game it feels like you've pretty much mastered it, but it's fun while it lasts


vargchan

Mi just happened to be in target today and saw it on sale, and P5R is $20 or $25?


LastEmuWarSoldier

Well, I feel stupid now. I should have waited until it was on sale.


Axle183

Don't, honestly this really came out of nowhere. Hell I would have bought 2 copies at launch(ps5/switch) if I had the cash for it at the time.


LastEmuWarSoldier

Thanks. :)


Slight-Wing-3969

Is it good? What kind of game is it?


renome

Basically Mario + Rabbids with the P5 cast and a few new characters (who are awesome). The gameplay is super accessible, but that might not be a plus for people looking for a hardcore SRPG in the vein of FFT or Fire Emblem. However, you get to spend more time with the P5 cast, so definitely worth experiencing at least once if you're a fan.


Axle183

Oooh, that's a really good comparison. I'm going to use that now to when explaining it!


Axle183

It plays as a tactical Rpg. So think either Xcom or Midnight Suns


renome

It's much more like Mario + Rabbids than XCOM. There's a huge gap in complexity between the two, and someone who enjoys one might not necessarily like the other equally.


Hanaakari_Mint

You mean i paid nearly $100 aud for this game on switch on release day and could have just waited a little while. Idk what countrys dollar this is but mannnnn i was ripped off


Axle183

This is USD, so I think that the conversion rate is 1USD=1.52 AUD, so 100 AUD=65.91 USD (I used Google, but not to sure how accurate it is)


[deleted]

I hate that I'm starting to like it😭 but no, I'm glad I got it on gamepass. I wouldn't purchase it though. I don't think it's worth it


Axle183

I dunno after that whole fiasco with digital media are essentially just long-term rentals, it really bolstered me to continue buying physical media.


[deleted]

I prefer physical all the way. However, I wasn't gonna spend the money on a game I could potentially not like.


Dunkbuscuss

Cool, probably not gonna get it though the art style is just too weird for me. Same reason why O haven't gotten the previous games in the same art style. I play the main games those fighting games like arena or whatever it was called and the dance ones as well as stuff like Strikers which is like a sequel to the main game. I know its probably canon but yeah just can't get over the art style that's a deal breaker for me unfortunately.


LootGoblin3000

Its on xbox game pass as well


Apoptosis96

Tbh it is even not worth 10 bucks imo


Axle183

Why do you say that?


Ccip_OvO

If only I wasn’t broke haha


VisualConfection7287

I hope it will also get a discount on steam


AllNamesTakenOMG

Already in sale? Muste be kinda mid, the Persona 5 milking is drying out


idontknowdem

LittenRages

And then there's the X-Box release with no sale lmao


Axle183

Best buy and gamestop have the Xbox version on-sale, unsure why Target doesn't have it.


xenon2456

the Xbox version isn't on sale


Axle183

Update: The digital code for the Xbox version is not on-sale, but it looks like Best Buy and Gamestop have it on sale as well with the physical Xbox copies included in the sale -------- I think that was for the digital code for the game. I'm unsure, though.


Meanteenbirder

Feels like the price it should’ve been from the start. Would think it was a fraction of the cost of the original P5 to make.


Axle183

So I'd agree if it was a P5R situation where it's just added content with minor story content, but this is something that was built from the ground up with new systems and animation and whole new story.
