Persona 4 Golden, to be quite honest, is the best role playing game I’ve played in a long time. I sunk a good 100 hours into the original Playstation 2 incarnation, not knowing quite what it was I was doing, muddled my way through it and came out the other side a better person. Thus birthed my Persona interest and moving swiftly in reverse, sprung Persona 3 FES out of its seal and began to sink maybe close to 150 hours into that as well.
Now I don’t know about you, but I have found it difficult to re-ignite that original spark you get from playing a RPG for the first time. I look at great games sat on my shelf that I’ve already beaten and think…..can’t play that again, or if I do, I lose interest relatively quickly because there isn’t that carrot on a stick story telling to keep me interested because I know full well what will happen. Now. I know full well what happens in say Final Fantasy VII and yet this game never seems to age. Persona 4 Golden, has exactly the same feeling.
