So instead of continuing Xenoblade I decided to start another game I had in my backlog, Tokyo Mirage Sessions, and I'm enjoying it quite a lot so far. It's very Persona-lite, not quite on the same level in terms of story/characters, but it's very light-hearted and fun, and I love the combat and character growth systems. All the party members and supporting characters being part of an entertainment company, and their work as performers being reflected in their combat abilities is a great concept.
