Dude, the whole game is based on choices you make and what you want to focus on

then on my second way through i planned it out

You don't have to do everything

It's what @Icecl Keyheart said

you can choose to plan it all out if you want a perfect run

Especially as the side stuff never interacts with the main story in any way except for having a girlfriend and that's just a very small part

if you don't care, just by all means, play casually

in the end you can just play it like a normal JRPG

You can just do dungeons and focus on the story and completely skip every side activity

Or you can rush through the dungeons and focus more on the sim side of the game

Or like I did and focus on both

thats not my only problem though

i have multiple problems with persona

Never play SMT, so can't say anything on that, Joker

Its like persona but not at all in any way

Isn't there another Atlus RPG that has similar stuff as Persona and SMT

Devil something

that one is entirely different too

personas a smt spin off thats arguably bigger than the main series now

That aside, it's SMT: Devil Survivor

Yeaaah, Devil Survivor

I remember I saw one episode of the anime

DS1 ftw

i think a better explanantion for my feelings on persona is that its like a second life

oh, so what I'm down for

games should never feel like a second life to keep on top of

gotchu

im taking it connah ur not a fan of stressful games?

depends on what stressful means

like oh god oh firetruck i have to do this or ny run is firetrucked

kindw exaggeration but something like that

i dunno how he plays soulsborne then if that's the case
