Is Persona 4 Golden REALLY That Good?!

If you were to ask me, Persona 4 Golden is the most feel-good game that our industry holds. There is no other game that can make me laugh, smile, and feel uplifted quite the that Persona 4 manages to do so. Combining that with its incredible voice cast, unique social mechanics, and cozy Japan countryside setting and you have a one-of-a-kind game.

    5 literally just attempts to copy paste p4 with a new story. It doesn't do everything better than 4 and ends up feeling like they tried a bit too hard to do so. 4 feels far more genuine and natural in the end. 4 has better music, it's not even close I won't argue, 5 went way too far with the big band type of tracks that aren't exactly the best. Also characters, 4 has it beat by miles

I played around 80 hours and unfortunately it left gamepass and I wasnt able to finish it. So I decided to start P4G until P3Reload hits gamepass and OMFG!!! At start it was a little difficult to adapt after P5R bur holy damm the story and characters are sooooooo amazing. I truly believe I am falling in love even more with P4G than P5R. So much fun and addictive.

I graduated high school back in May, and I'm in my second semester of college, so it's not exactly the same, but I can really get behind the themes of self acceptance and discovery throughout adolescence. Certainly helps that it's just a fun game in general! I was originally considering getting P5R as my entry to the series, but I'm glad I waited for Golden to be ported to modern consoles.

Finishing school and hearing the snowflake ost with the text reading "the day you leave for the city draws closer and closer, you should make memories with everyone" really breaks my heart. This is the kind of game i would kill to play again with no prior memories of it.

I'm having a hard time keeping up with the enormous amount of things you're supposed to do. The dungeon I'm in (I think it's the second one) is very hard. The enemies jumped in difficulty a lot all of a sudden and I don't understand how I'm supposed to gain exp/levels since there is a time limit on the story. I'm actually feeling anxiety about it instead of enjoying it like everyone says I should be. I hate to look up a guide right at the beginning of the game. Everything else about it is really great like you say in the video. The game is incredibly well written and I don't mind the look and feel of the dungeons. It's really this idea that time is progressing with everything I do and I have to get the dungeon done by a particular day or I'll lose everything I've worked for that I don't understand.

    Oh man, I discovered this game late, I had a PS2 but I didn't play it until I got a copy of Golden on my PSVita, and BOI did it steal away hours of my life, I pulled regular all nighters, expected to wear out the poor handheld. I LOVE this game, the music is all such a vibe I could listen to on repeat, the characters, the story, it is easily in my top 3 games I have ever played, and when it cam to Steam that was an insta buy for me since my Vita is long dead. Persona 4 Golden is a MUST play, it's not a game, its an experience, thankyou for showcasing this gem of a title Matty, you made my day!

    I love this game, I beat this game 11 times, 12 if u include the revisit I'm in the middle of for modern consoles and I still love this game. Everything about this game is amazing. The story, the characters, the soundtrack, the gameplay, I love it all, the game has it's flaws but the greatness completely overshadows most of the game's flaws. I love this game so much. Especially since it's on modern consoles now, I highly recommend people playing this game.

    On persona 5 Royal when you go to fuse persona you wait for an alert then you strengthen your persona with the freshly fused persona to get a stat boost instead of a level gain and you can easily put all your persona on 99 on all stats to make them broken

    Surprised you left off Johnny Yong Bosch during that bit about how crazy the cast was. I just beat this for the first time, because it was on Game Pass and I’m a big fan of Persona 5. I tried to play this a few times in the past, but never got very far because I’d be busy and too much time would pass between gaming sessions. It has a very slow start to the story and gameplay. But once it gets going, it’s fantastic. I actually prefer the P4 cast over P5 now

    P4's True End Route is just hidden behind layers upon layers of choices, it's amazing. I was bummed out that P5 didn't do something similar, but after growing up and replaying P4G, it makes a lot of sense for the True End to be that way, and it wouldn't be fitting for P5 to do something similar. I love these games so much :)

    Playing it for the first time thanks to Game Pass. As a normie who has only played P5 and P5R there's some QOL features I definitely miss, but I like how cozy and quaint it is in comparison. P5's story is pretty cut and dry from the get go but P4 sets up an interesting mystery that maintains this sinister undertone to what is otherwise a really chill, laid back experience. Really love this cast of characters. Definitely see why some people find the music repetitive though, those MIDI trumpets at the beginning of "Like a Dream Come True" will be seared into my mind for the rest of time. But overall it's a fantastic soundtrack.

    I’ve gotten P3 FES, P3P, P4, P4G, and P5 all on each of their launch days. I got the first P3 a month or so after its release on a recommendation and P5R I just got this year on Switch. I’m ashamed to admit that I had never beaten any of these games until now. I’ve played at least some amount of time in each release, but never beat any of them. Over the past two months I’ve beaten P5 Royal and Tactica, working on Strikers now. I’m debating on if I want to do a FeMC play through of P3P next or P4G. I plan on getting P3 Reload eventually but I’m waiting to see if the collectors edition gets a price cut on Amazon. My concern is should I just wait to play P3 through Reload as at least half of the game will be entirely new to me (not to mention the last time I picked up P3 was probably what 15 years ago at least so my memory is going to be fuzzy anyway. Would playing Portable ruin my experience with the story since I won’t get all those awesome cutscenes? Or should I play Portable so I can do my FeMC run because once I play Reload I’ll never want to touch Portable again?

    I will agree with you on going from 5 to 4 to 3 FES. It was not a fun experience for me. Loved the different mechanics and social links and perks in 5 only for some of those to be stripped (which is to be expected going backwards) in 4 and again in 3 and I just couldn't get into 4 or 3. I beat them both just so I can get the full scope of the game; I liked the psychology of the levels and ideas in 4 but it felt like I really had to drag myself through 4 just to finish and even more so in 3. Probably should have gone 3 to 4 to 5 but 5 was the hotness out that got me into the series so had to give the others a shot. Then I tried to go to 1 and I just couldn't figure out the battle system.
