Persona fans made it clear that they loved how Persona 5 Royal grew from the first game, and didn’t mind the additional time added to the game by all the new story beats. The question, then is if Persona 6 will take after Persona 5 Royal specifically.

English-speaking fans of War of the Visions: FFBE have had reason to anticipate this Persona 5 Royal collaboration, since the Japanese version of the game got the crossover a few months ago.

The theme of Persona 6 isn’t clear yet, but odds are that Atlus will change the Persona gameplay formula in order to better reflect the story that it has in mind....
While some members of the pro-life movement are still picketing abortion clinics and shouting “Murderer!,” a quieter group of activists is seeking to change the tenor of the debate. They hope that a more compassionate, less judgmental approach can help break the 23-year stalemate that has existed since Roe v. Wade. Ethicist David Reardon, author of a new book, “Making Abortion Rare,” calls it a “kinder, gentler” movement and hopes to win converts among the “middle majority” of Americans who aren’t comfortable with abortion, but don’t want to ban it completely....
