Meanwhile, Persona 3 got spin-offs that at least made a little bit of sense

Plus, the P3 spinoffs were mostly for cell phones, and games for those didn't take nearly as much manpower as a full-fledged commercial release. Manpower and time that went into milking P4 to death could have been spent creating other games.

True that. But like

There was a fucking Candy crush esque spin-off

I forgive it tho cuz a few of them were actually faithful to the game and we're either prequals, or happened during the story and we're actually rpgs
