Excellent. Hard to describe but insanely addictive like Pokémon, except WAY better designs, negotiations to get them on your team, way more strategy with buffs and exploiting weaknesses, and the most fun exploration of any JRPG I've played since Xenoblade X.
Like pokemon, except the Pokemon will kill you, will not help you until you compensate them in some manner, will insult you even when recruited, and you will have to put up with it because you're not going to beat the game without them. Also the pokemon are gods and demons of various world cultures and the world is ending because god is actually dead.

Have fun!
Get it while you can, boyos. These Shin Megami Tensei games only increase in price once production stops.

How are these games? YouTube vids don't really make it seem good to me.

I don't need this game right now but should I just get it now even though I might not play it for another 3-6 months? How likely is it that the price will drop lower in 3-6 months?

Could go either way. It's an Atlus game but also exclusive to Switch. Switch games usually retain their price longer.

I would like to know as well.

I'm in the same boat. I have way too many games in my backlog but don't want to miss out on a very good deal if there is one

Interesting that all the latest Amazon reviews say the steel book is torn/cracked/obliterated on arrival.
