Metaphor: ReFantazio takes place in a world where our reality of “equality” between different ethnic groups is presented as an unattainable-but-nice-to-think-about idyllic fantasy.

The world is stratified according to a hierarchy of different tribes classified by their physical characteristics, like wings, horns, or elfin-like long ears.

There’s an almost reflexive instinct to call Metaphor: ReFantazio “Persona with swords” The game has the hallmarks of a Persona , which lend it an air of familiarity, not to mention much of the same creative talent.

The game does the same with class and wealth.
