★ Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 Review ★

https://www.facebook.com/TheRPGFanatic Review for Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 (2008) by Atlus.

How I review games:
I do not use a rating system. I think rating systems are silly.
Unlike many game reviewers I try to review a game from the perspective of who I believe the target audience of the game is supposed to be.

If I personally don't belong to the target audience for the game I'm reviewing, I try to consider if the intended target audience would enjoy the game or not.

Will you ever review persona 3?? Yeah i noticed someone just asked, however I want it to happen

[TheRpgFanatic]

@TheMrkenius Maybe the PSP version, eventually. I don't have it right now. 

[Adamx509]

Loved persona 4, is 3 as good?

[TheRpgFanatic]

@Adamx509 Yes

[TripleCCC05]

Question, have you ever played Persona 3? The reason I ask, is because I found it in a bargain bin for twenty dollars, artbook and CD included. Would you recommend Persona 3 to someone who's never played any of the Persona games before?

[TheRpgFanatic]

@TripleCCC05 Yes, it's a good game.

I agree with your review on quite a few things, except two. One, the combat system. While yes, I've been wrecked by Kanji, I've come up with a few strategies to get around him... and once you think up these strategies (thanks game, giving me a save outside boss fights) or google them, the bosses become easier. And yeah, I wish that Chie was smart enough to use a revival item without me telling her, but you get used to it. second is the choices. Unless I'm going after the true end, I just go with

[shadow100285]

whatever I think is right. Same with the third, though the save often rule is really important. Heck, that goes with the combat too. But yeah, I'm kinda glad that it doesn't limit you like a lot of games. Heck, the third had you shooting yourself with an evoker (looks like a gun) to summon your persona and has basically zombies walking around! They push boundries, and don't go too far.

[supermariosunshine64]

Just one thing: stop relying so much on strategy guides. I don't consider myself an expert on these games, but I've finished FFT, Legend of Mana and this game without guides. Guides just hinder the enjoyment one could have.

I HAVE THE SAME SHIRT AS YOU
