I'm not sure i can proceed in persona 3 reload.

I'm currently at 9/3

I have been playing for about 25 or 30 hours ig

I played P5R before

Look, i liked the game's soundtracks, story base, art direction and character designs

But its just too hard to get into, every month i have to wander 20+ floors in tartarus

And every 40+ floors are the same exact level design

Only the first tartarus level changed after 20 Its so boring (currently at level 118) i turned hardness to peaceful and used dlc personas just to speedrun through it but its not making it any better imo

There's little areas to explore outside tartarus, maybe there's a way to unlock more areas idk about

And unlocking SEES memebers confidant takes way too long into the story and the beginning are only npc confidant, only maiko and the old couple i found good so far

The characters still kinda uninteresting till yet And the game is going through "random boss, 20+ tartarus levels" every month

Maybe P5R was the same for a fair time in the game but it was easy to get through dungeons and mementos tbh and the game was way more flexiable and fun imo

I'm a huge P5R fan, and i'm trying to love P3 but i feel like i'm really pushing myself to proceed and the game doesn't feel any good

Even the kirijo plot twist was spoiled already through tartarus documents so it felt not shocking at all

I will be fully honest, P3R has better story base than P5R

But the pacing is horrendous And alot of people say its better than P3R as an overall game but its really hard for me

Any suggestions atleast to have some fun?
