I've played and beaten the base versions of both games before and I loved them both (both were in my top 10 games of the decade), so I know I'll enjoy revisiting either one, and I'll definitely play them both eventually. Some more information on why I'd lean towards either game.
Xenoblade:
Xenoblade:
- I played XC in 2015, whereas I played P5 in 2017, so XC is less fresh to me.
- I played the 3DS version which was terribly low res, whereas with DE I can play on my nice 1080p monitor.
- Of the 2 games, I think i enjoyed Persona 5 a bit more.
- If I'm not mistaken Royal adds a lot more new content than DE does.
- I'm probably going to get Strikers, so this would serve as a nice refresher for me.
