It will never not be funny seeing these people bitch and moan about a series of games literally aimed at teens and very young adults. Literally people less than half their ages. You got people in their 40s there whining that games aimed at kids still in high school isn't for them, shocking enough. And the developers aren't changing the increasingly successful games just to pander to some 40 year old's insecurities for still playing games they should have long grown out of.

Yeah. IDK. I played p3 fes over the whole year of my last year of high school, roughly finishing around the time I graduated. I honestly think that's the peak age to play these games and spreading it out like that instead of mainlining it is pretty fun too. 

The experience of playing the game in school, makes it completely different to playing something like that as a grown as adult. I think even in your early 20s is probably a good vibe for it, where you're removed enough from school to feel a lil nostalgic but not fully an adult.

It was pretty obvious around the time I played p5 that I was aging out of it. Don't get me wrong, the game is still fun, and I liked it, but it's obviously not being made for me and wasn't the same as playing p3 as a teen, and I wouldn't expect it to be.

the hs stuff is part of the core concept. as a functioning adult you should be able to compartmentalize that the game is a story about high school and not some weird thing being catered exactly to be exactly as you want. if you want a game about being a cringe 40 year old play something else

have all the pandering sequels of 70s/80s/90s kids stuff retooled for manchildren fried everyone's brains? they just expect ALL MEDIA to be for childish 40 year olds?

Actually really liked Lost Judgment’s whole bit where you’re a teacher at a high school. Being the guy supporting the next generation was more appreciable to me these days. And on occasion using corporal punishment against the delinquents.
