It's a fun game. I love that you can move at your own pace compared to the schedule of persona games. It's a great change up. If more resources were put towards the game I think it would have won over more casuals. People who have only played P5 might not give this a chance because it is clearly low budget. But Ringo, the world, the progression all feel fantastic. Another great Atlus game imo.

Atlus is the king of making JRPGS actually fun and especially love it when they try to branch out from just SMT and Persona.
Would love to see a sequel to Strange Journey or even a remaster but only time will tell.
Characters are quirky and lovable but feel pretty indifferent about the combat.
Definitely worth a try if you already like ATLUS games.

Soul Hackers 2 is such a cool and stylish RPG. The cyberpunk vibe is super eye-catching, and the characters are really fun to get to know. The combat is smooth and keeps you hooked, especially with the demon fusion system, which if you have played games from the Persona franchise will look similar. I also loved the Soul Matrix stuff it made building relationships with the characters feel meaningful. If you’re into RPGs or love Atlus games, this one’s definitely worth checking out.
