"Every day's great at your Junes!"

Persona 4 Golden is a game that is just that; golden. There's a real sense of place and atmosphere that exploring Inaba gives off that it's hard to think of any other social sim RPG - other than this games sequel - that really hits home when it comes to establishing its setting so well. The story is mostly well written, with a few small pacing issues towards the end of the game when going for the best ending. I particularly loved how the main cast interacted with one another throughout the game and how their friendships all felt so genuine and earned. The music is cream of the crop, as expected from the Persona series. The visuals are a little outdated but they still have a charm to them that oozes personality and atmosphere like very few other JRPG's can really say about themselves. A nearly perfect game in every regard.
