>>38591435My problem with P5 is that it wants to be both a wacky lupin charming thief story (which is fine and great, easily the best part) AND handle social commentary.
And dont get me wrong, you can handle both, but these writers clearly couldnt. You have a PE teacher raping and literally beating kids but then cops cant interfere because our heroes need to be the ones to save the day so you need to justify this by either making everyone utterly oblivious or ''in it'' and even then its pretty far-fetched that parents will fold to a guy who is beating their kids just because he has an olympic medal
Im not saying the script is cringe as the anon said, but its definitely a thing that falls apart instantly if you think about it, which brings us to people thinking P5 is a masterpiece when it clearly isnt, from both a gameplay and a plot point of view
