    One of the most frustrating gaming experiences I've ever had and I felt compelled to leave a bad review. I loved Persona 5 and maybe I'm just missing something but I do not understand the game design with this one. DO NOT play on hard or higher difficulty. After about 20 minutes of story I got stuck facing the first shadows and the boss with no way out except mostly RNG defeat when IOne of the most frustrating gaming experiences I've ever had and I felt compelled to leave a bad review.

After about 20 minutes of story I got stuck facing the first shadows and the boss with no way out except mostly RNG defeat when I didn't know wtf I was doing and then had to run it all back multiple times - complete BS - do not make me rehash super long plot points over and over again - awful awful design choice and I had to uninstall… Expand

    Sure, it’s the best version of Persona 4, but a lot of that legwork was done in the Steam port, so it’s hard to really give much credit to this. Still, Persona 4 Golden is a great game with a wonderful soundtrack and a combat system that absolutely rules, which makes it worth playing (or replaying) for any Persona fan.

    All in all, Persona 4 Golden is an absolute triumph; very much golden. It isn’t quite as good as Persona 5 Royal, but the difference is like a hair's breadth. There’s a great story, tons of content to get involved in and some superb combat and exploration opportunities.

    By defending its rurality, Persona 4 Golden teaches us that acceptance does not imply liking, but experiencing the reality of ourselves without any kind of denial or rejection.
