Persona 5 is the Best RPG Ever According to Survey.
You know that sentiment of catharsis you get when people stop talking about how X game is the best thing ever made for many years only to get replaced by that anger you feel when you are told that the game that replaced X is the best thing ever now? Well, Famitsu really brought those feelings forth because of the Survey they recently conducted for their magazine.
The Survey consisted in asking which RPG the Japanese public considered the best RPG of all time. With more than 2,000 votes. Which 56% belong to men and 43% belong to women (With 1% that didn’t specify a gender). In the range of age; 9% belonged to teenagers 36% belongs to people between 20 and 29 year olds, 27% for people between 30 and 39 and 16% for 40+ year olds.
What’s the best RPG of all Time? Survey Says!
Now, the results of the survey are nothing short of impressive, considering I don’t see a certain title standing anywhere close to Number 1. But I do see the game we’re talking about (Persona 5) as the best RPG of all time according to the demographics that voted for it. Here are the Top 20 picks:
1.-Persona 5 – 256 Votes
2.-Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation – 218
3.-Chrono Trigger – 194
4.-NieR: Automata – 177
5.-Final Fantasy VII – 169
6.-Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride – 165
7.-Suikoden II – 155
8.-NieR – 151
9.-Persona 3 – 131
10.-Final Fantasy XV – 110
11.-Xenoblade Chronicles – 104
12.-Final Fantasy X – 100
13.-Xenogears – 91
14.-Persona 4: Golden – 90
15.-Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen – 82
16.-Final Fantasy VI – 81
17.-EarthBound – 78
18.-Final Fantasy IX – 75
19.-Final Fantasy VIII – 74
20.-The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – 72
So. Final Fanta-I mean; Persona 5 has acquired the status of best RPG of all time according to the avid readers of the Famitsu magazine. I’m certainly surprised that dreaded VII is in number 5 of all places. There’s also a very big abundance of Final Fantasy titles over Dragon Quest titles. And my beloved Xenoblade Chronicles stands at number 11 which stung for a little bit.
But hey, the greatest highlight is the fact that The Witcher: Wild Hunt actually got a place in the Survey results. you know why? Because the game is actually developed by a western company. I must remind you that Famitsu is a Japanese magazine, which means this western title is beloved by Japanese audiences to some degree. And that is great to see.

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games
Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.
In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.
According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.
In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!
Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

Shift Up unveils the intriguing details behind the physical packaging of Stellar Blade for the PS5
It appears that many
are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.
We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.
