Another fantastic Persona experience. Although it lacks the scope of Persona 3 or Persona 5 in terms of story, it more than makes up for it in its simplified yet addictive gameplay and absolutely stellar cast. Although the story isn't as grand and is more light hearted than it's predecessor, the chemistry between the cast members is Incredible and it honestly feels like a group of friends perhaps helped by the stellar VA work. Although the battles are not as robust as in 3 or 5, the simplified system works to it's advantage creating less of a grind in the middle to late game, and the dungeons have some really killer music as well. In speaking on Golden, the added social links are a very welcome surprise as well as the scooter and the night expansions certainly makes the non dungeon sections more interesting than the base game. The game does suffer from being WAY TOO easy, even on harder difficulties, especially when you get further along and get access to the Fox also there's some story elements that may rub other players the wrong way especially with the identity issues of Kanji and Naoto often being played for laughs. Again, a lot of SMT and early Persona players balk at 4 for it's light-heartedness and the easiness of the game, but fans of Persona 5 may gravitate towards this one especially with the stellar cast which really makes the experience.
