The Weekly Stuff Podcast #183 – Persona 5 First Impressions and Spoiler Chat

It’s time for another episode of The Weekly Stuff Podcast with Jonathan Lack & Sean Chapman, a weekly audio show that explores the worlds of film, television, and video games. You can subscribe for free in iTunes by following this link.

After years of waiting, it is finally time – Persona 5 has arrived stateside, which means we can finally dive in deep with the next entry in our favorite video game series. We touch on a few pieces of gaming news – including Mass Effect Andromeda controversies and the newly unveiled Xbox Scorpio specs – before devoting the majority of the show to Persona 5. It’s not quite ‘first’ impressions – Sean, after all, played this game in Japanese last year, and has been patiently waiting to talk about it, while I’ve already sunk a solid 30 hours in – but we give our thoughts on all the basics, from the art to the music to the gameplay. And we restrict our first ‘spoiler-chat’ on the game to the first two Palaces (or story arcs) in the game, so if you’ve played that far, we don’t spoil anything else from later. Our Persona 5 conversations will only continue from here of course, but we’ve already got a lot to go over – and we couldn’t be happier to finally be talking about it.

Enjoy!
