>>45241938>>45241968The PQ games are interesting because the game gets to spend its time exploring a singular character to the fullest with Rei and then Hikari.
They're just a giant character study both times and the trade off is the flanderisation of the characters pulled from 3/4/5.
>>45242040The dungeon crawling could be fun but the presence of established characters can make it a bit of a chore if you're adjusted to the pace of exploration within full on etriam.
The stopping and talking every five seconds gets tiring when you're used to EO letting you go at your own pace and its even worse when they stop to discuss an FOE instead of letting you figure it out yourself.
That being said some stratums have some neat gimmicks like evil spirit club in 1 and the fourth stratum in 2.
