Royal becaused it's localized, and I don't really like playing rpgs without German subs. Fear that I will miss something important due to the language barrier...
Already addicted to the Game. 12 hours in now.
I'm on level 9 now and near the end of the first castle. Do you would recommend to grinding more since the soldiers respawn?

you could grind if you think the shadows are too difficult, but p5r really isn't that difficult of a game, even on the hardest difficulty.

Ashi· editedIt's true that Persona 5's antagonists are cartoonishly evil, but that doesn't lessen their narrative impact. They still challenge the Phantom Thieves on an emotional level that forces them to grow as characters, and they also serve to reinforce the themes of the game.
They might resemble cartoon villains, but there's still depth to the characterisation of the antagonists. They aren't just evil for the sake of being evil; they're driven by real fears and motivations, and the game provides some explanation for how each of them became so corrupt. Even Shido, who's characterised as an irredeemably diabolical megalomaniac, was persecuted by his seniors when he first entered politics (demonstrating the cyclical nature of corruption and abuse).
I imagine that Madarame is the poster child for this issue. A man who takes children in so that he can exploit their art skills is probably not very "realistic" (🙄), but I feel that these arguments strictly focused on the logic of a fictional work are made by people who lack the framework to engage with media in a more meaningful way. Children and artists often do get exploited in real life, and I think it's clever how those two complementary ideas are combined with Madarame's character.
Madarame is more than just an evil old man. In his Palace we discover that his actions are driven by a fear of poverty (tying in to this idea of the starving artist that's reflected in Yusuke's character), and he's even humanised to an extent in Yusuke's confidant when we discover that he actually did have some fatherly affection for Yusuke. The same thing applies to every other antagonist; the game doesn't try to excuse their actions, but it does provide a reason for them.
I get why people might not like how exaggerated and ridiculous the antagonists can get, but things like that just don't bother me. Their portrayal is consistent with the lighthearted anime-ish tone of the series (not to say that there aren't serious moments), and there's so much more to engage with in these characters beyond getting hung up on the small stuff. If the characters lacked depth then I'd probably be complaining about how one-dimensional they are, but that's just not the case.
Sorry for the long read. I didn't mean to write this much, but I just kept thinking of more to say.
whew

My advice is, there's certain confidants you HAVE to make a priority. Non spoiler:
The Justice, Faith, and Councillor arcanas must be maxed out by November 20
These confidants are new to Royal so make sure to complete these if you want to see everything the game has to offer
Also, it's a very, very long game. So make sure you take your time with it

This the opposite. This is Sega basically promising an investor to port more games to Steam and other consoles

I know but the thought of them never bothering to take ports seriously until now is hilarious
