This tierlist is so close to what I would have done. What can I say King, exquisite taste. I'm too lazy to list everything out but if I had to do a top 3 right away it would be : SMT4 Persona 4 Golden SMT5 Vengeance Keep up the great content!
I guess I need to go play SMT5 Vengeance, P4G, and maybe even Soul Hackers 2. I’ve played P5R and most of P3R so far. I’ve bought most of these games already anyway, but I need to go play them. I also got Metaphor Refantazio and haven’t played that yet, but I need to as a Persona fan.
For me DDS and P3 are my favourite atlus titles ever. They might have their faults but what they bring to the table is incredibly unique, which by all means doesn't mean they are perfect; rather they are pure genius.
I honestly agree with tactica being low. Honestly didn’t enjoy the game. Played it for a couple hours and just felt completely bored of it. Nothing interesting with the characters and didn’t grip me like strikers did. I still have my copy so maybe one day I’ll pick it up again.
Its my favorite persona spinoff but even i have to admit the dialogue for thise was annoying. For the quests i usually just fastforwarded the dialogue because it was completely irrelevant to the story
I like also Majin Tensei 2 even if this game is slow asf, but game mechanics, music and story is top notch. Majin 2 is A tier. I liked this game more than Devil Survivor games.
Instead of Atlus's games, you should make a tier list of Persona likes. This top 10 Persona like games videos show nothing beyond other popular rpgs, i am glad i found Eternights and Ai: The Somnium files - Nirvana initiative by accident😊
Yeah I’d agree with you there. Although what holds P3R back for me from being the true definitive version of p3 is the lack of the answer lack of inclusion on the disc, if the answer or episode aigis was bundled within the physical disc I would rate it much higher but because it’s not included on the disc it definitely holds the game back from Making it to S Tier. P3R goes in A tier, but is S tier if we’re to also include episode aigis in the discussion but sadly their is no physical disc with episode aigis so ima have to rank it A tier, atleast until the next gen switch releases and they release a complete version of P3R for the next gen Nintendo switch.
I played a piece of P3P. Didn't like it. I played some of P4G. It's good, but I prefer a more modern gameplay experience. Music is amazing. P3R is an incredible redo of P3P. Vastly improved. I still don't like that the story kinda drags. Persona 5 Royal is the best game I ever played so far. Never played the original, but it looks like I should stick to Royal.
There's so many great Atlus games missing! Friday the 13th, The Karate Kid, Thousand Arms, Maken X, Trauma Center: New Blood, Demon's Souls, Dragon's Crown?!?!? How could you leave out Dragon's Crown??? There's just so many games to review!!!
SMT V Vengeance or SMT IV, but i suggest SMT IV if you have 3DS. Digital Devil Saga (spin-off) is also good start point if you want more classic jrpg with party system instead of monster collection RPG.
I would change Digital Devil Saga with SMT V, from A to S. There is no way vanila SMT V is better than Nocturne LOL. Catherine is A tier. Rest is good. And i agree P3 Reload is max B tier - cashgrab disaster with overpriced DLC (Answer) who should be in base game, overall still good game, but P3FES is still better and cheaper.
Original Smt 5 shouldn’t be In S Tier. It’s a low C tier game objectively speaking. It’s extremely flawed. Smt 5 vengeance should be in low A tier or high B tier. Metaphor refantazio goes at the top of S tier (arguably the best project atlus have ever made and tackled during development). Persona 5 Royal goes S Tier, P4G is S tier, Smt 4 is s tier. Smt 4 apocalypse is B tier. P3R Would be S tier had the answer been included on the disc or had it gotten a complete physical rerelease but because it doesn’t for now it goes on high A tier, atleast until P3R comes out for the next gen switch with the dlc/expansion pass is on the cartridge. Digital Devil saga 1 and 2 goes in S tier. Smt 3 nocturne goes in A tier
I didn't play the original SMT V, but I agree with the video in Vengeance being S tier for the AMAZING exploration in this game. The gameplay is solid, the story is doing it's job, but exploring the world is amazing, you always have a clear, direct goal and just following that will get you killed by being underleveled and low on miracles, so you have to explore this enormous worlds. Sidequests have cool interactions (looking at you, buddhist nozuchi) and it all flows so fast. Sure, other SMT games did the SMT formula better, but V and Vengeance brought so much new stuff to the table it feels a fresh experience with the series foundation in pretty solid shape. I can see it going down if you don't care for the new gameplay loop, but for me this factor alone makes it one of the best games I've played recently.
@ vengeance shouldn’t be in S tier, open world exploration is boring. Open world is an extremely overrated formula and I dislike the fact that vengeance does it, the overworld is empty and souless with nothing to do, Smt 4 and Smt 3 has better linear overworld and linear dungeon exploration which is far better then the boring empty husk of an overworld that Smt 5 has.
@@Holy_Crusader I greatly disagree, open world is an overused concept easy to mess up and I was turned down before playing the game, but vengeance does It very well, It feels empty by design and worldbuilding, but you always find something hidden, sometimes your Navi finds something, others is a quest or Power up, a chest, a new demon in the overworld, or something valuable to sell. I can see that If this loop is something you dislike, this game is gonna go waaaaay down, but If you enjoy exploration of an open space, vengeance felt like a fresh masterpiece of the loop after games like tales of arise and dragon Quest XI tried hard but unfortunatly failed in the end: creating an overworld fun and worth exploring and not relying solely on Dungeon crawl
What’s your favorite ATLUS game? :)
It's a tie between Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan and Etrian Odyssey V: Beyond the Myth
P5r and Nocturne ❤
Persona 4
My favourite Atlus game this year is Unicorn Overlord, such a great game I replayed it to completion immediately after I finished it
Am I allowed to say DDS 1&2 even though that's technically 2 games? lmao
@@CqBwAfFlEs Absolutely! Basically 2 parts of the same game!
0:18 super relatable PLUS Atlus!!! Instant subscribe
Great tier list. SMT V Vengeance is def my favorite in the series at this point.
This tierlist is so close to what I would have done. What can I say King, exquisite taste.
I'm too lazy to list everything out but if I had to do a top 3 right away it would be :
SMT4
Persona 4 Golden
SMT5 Vengeance
Keep up the great content!
I can agree with this especially with P5R that game has aged really well to this very day probably the most enjoyable atlus game next to strikers imo

Imo is P3Reload vs SMT V vengeance and DDS2 no other game for me can compare with those 3.
For me tactica would have been an A rank+ IF they fucking removed that garbage mandatory quests.
Its my favorite persona spinoff but even i have to admit the dialogue for thise was annoying. For the quests i usually just fastforwarded the dialogue because it was completely irrelevant to the story
my favorite atlus game is Giten Megami Tensei definitely
I like also Majin Tensei 2 even if this game is slow asf, but game mechanics, music and story is top notch. Majin 2 is A tier. I liked this game more than Devil Survivor games.
p5r is literal dogshit story-wise, cant believe u put p3r and p4g lower than it

Well to tell the truth Persona youTuber talked about Eternights, and I found Somnium files browsing Steam, so technically only Somnium by accident
I’ll have to respectfully disagree with you on P3R’s placement. It’s one of my favorite games ever, but I can understand why you put it at B tier

S: SMT Nocturne, SMT Digital Devil Saga, SMT Digital Devil Saga 2, SMT Devil Summoner Raidou Kuzunoha, SMT Devil Summoner Raidou Kuzunoha 2, SMT 4, SMT: Apocalypse, SMT 5
A: Persona 3R, Persona 5, P4G
B: Who cares
Best SMT game to start with?
SMT V Vengeance or SMT IV, but i suggest SMT IV if you have 3DS. Digital Devil Saga (spin-off) is also good start point if you want more classic jrpg with party system instead of monster collection RPG.
Speaking of C tier.. PERSONA 5 Tactica LMFAOOOOOOOO

Nice job putting Persona 5 Royal in the trash tier in the thumbnail for rage clicks. 😂
