The entire world is at it's last month of existence. Everyone is consumed by the rumors spread by Strega that Nyx's arrival represents salvation. Only the protagonist can save the world from this catastrophe.
I'm, clearly, in the minority about this, but I didn't find January to be that depressing. The empty streets, the melancholy, the music; all of it gave me a sense of calm and fulfillment. January was beautiful in it's desolation and resignation. And it is for that reason I found it amazing, and I wanted to savor every day of it.
the feels... THE FEELS... this is by far the most beautiful song in Persona 3 hands down. But my favorite song in the game is "The Battle for everyone's soul"
This track to me is the peak of Shoji Meguro's entire musical career. The melancholic nostalgia as you remember all the good expierences you had with your friends, all the places you've been to in the city, the hell of losing Shinji, and the fear it's all going to be over and you'll never see them again. But that sweet determination to live life to the fullest comes in. Playing as an apathetic teenager who lost his parents but slowly learned to care about people was brilliant. Watching him learn the value of life made me value it more too.
One of the most depressive moments in video games ever. This shit was amazing man, everyone says they're gonna die, the end is approaching and this songs fits so nicely. You feel the pressure.
When this song kicked in the first time at the shrine, I was baffled. I put down my controller to listen to this for a good 10 minutes. This had never happened to me whilst playing a game before. The mood, timing and finally the song itself, everything was perfect.
