It's a great remake, but it's way too easy now which is disappointing. It's kinda to be expected because of how easy P5R is, and Reload borrows the Showtime mechanic basically, but the rebalancing was a lost opportunity.
Recency bias is insane on this site (as well as backloggd). Any big name game will inevitably reach top 100 before enough time passes for accurate appraisement. It's hard to take charts seriously (maybe I shouldnt) when games land here by virtue of being new above anything else.
"It's hard to take charts seriously (maybe I shouldnt)"
Yeh, don't. As Jodas said, just use them for recommendations of what games pique your personal interests to give a shot.
Glitchwave is still a user-aggregate site at the end of the day, so it's always going to skew toward recency bias and its own collective taste. Makes no sense to take the "Best of All Time" charts seriously when so many games have the benefit (or drawback) of decades of positive and/or negative retrospective discourse.
Besides, the GOAT discussion is always moving. When I was a kid (I'm 31 yo right now), the best games of all time were a product of the Nintendo / Sony console war: Ocarina of Time and Final Fantasy VII. While console war is still a thing it's not as determinant as it used to be. Besides, more modern, great games, appeared on the battlefield. In the end, canon is constantly evolving and many works of art aspire to be part of that canon.
That's fair, I cleared in about 71 hours (including persona grinding because im a weird perfectionist) but you could easily cut it to 50 - 60 . Just pick it up and play whenever you feel like it and stop when you're tired
