The imposing prison of Tartarus, pivotal in the narrative of Persona 3, stirs up strong feelings, and it’s no different on the subreddit. For some gamers, the grinding process is seen as a regrettable necessity, a step to reach the core of the game’s characters and plot. User HiragiTee humorously labels fans into groups, reflecting varying reactions. “Type 1” can endure Tartarus, while “Type 2” harbors intense dislike for it, much like one might feel towards stale fries or spoilers of movies. User Monkules passionately confesses that he adores the visual novel elements, but finds Tartarus tedious, causing a palpable tension among fans who lean more towards story development rather than trudging through numerous floors filled with repetitive enemies.
