F2P game at it's core unfortunately.
Which is a shame. I wouldn't mind paying for it if there was no grind, stupid filler stories and giant ass maps with the sole purpose of wasting your time.

"Gacha" part is not really the problem. You can just skip "additional" characters and play with the base ones. It's the F2P gameplay loop that is the real problem.
Want to progress? You need to upgrade
- Characters
- Personas
- Weapons
- Skills
- Stupid ass cards
- Characters and weapons again by using duplicates
And for the most of those items you need a different "currency" (that's locked behind some timed grind). But you won't notice the "F2P wall" until it's too late and you feel too time-invested in the game already.
