Should you play Persona 5?
Key strengths: Baton Pass, weaknesses and All-Out Attacks make exploiting enemy affinities fast and rewarding. Bespoke Palaces have puzzles, stealth routes and set-piece layouts rather than generic dungeon floors. Clear downside: Mementos relies heavily on procedurally generated corridors and becomes visually repetitive.

Pros, Cons & Considerations
Exploration
Bespoke Palaces have puzzles, stealth routes and set-piece layouts rather than generic dungeon floors
Mementos relies heavily on procedurally generated corridors and becomes visually repetitive
Characters
Confidants link social stories directly to battle, fusion and exploration benefits
Graphics
Menus, transitions and UI animation remain exceptionally cohesive
Music
Acid-jazz and vocal tracks are inseparable from the game's identity
Systems
The original release frequently blocks evening activities after story or Metaverse days, reducing calendar freedom
◇Consider
Calendar: Time management can feel restrictive if you dislike planning social/dungeon days
Time commitment: Very long — about 100 hours by the catalogue median

Mods & Improvements
Persona 5 Royal Essentials
Mod loader / QoL foundation
Platform: Windows / PC · Persona 5 Royal
Reloaded-II-based essentials layer for the PC release. It provides advanced file replacement/merging support plus small user-facing QoL such as intro skipping.
Recommended foundation if you want to mod Royal on PC
Full Graphics Overhaul
HD texture / graphics pack
Platform: Windows / PC · Persona 5 Royal
One of the more substantial PC graphics packs for Royal. Treat it as a visual alternative rather than something the already-stylish base game requires.
Optional visual overhaul
