Well the main protagonist and friends are in high school, but it almost no High School setting to it. The tone is very much different than the Persona games, which is based on Psychology and the character knowing oneself and overcoming his/her personality issues. On the other hand, Shin Megami Tensei is about morality, religion, and fighting for what you believe is right, even if it kills or hurts those that are close to you. (Hell, the final boss of the second game is called YHVH, also known as Yawveh. Essentially you are fighting god). Also, SMT 1's difficulty is very unforgiving, and does not hold your hand at all.
Also kind of disappointed this is not on Android also at best.
