The defense is ready, Your Honor.

It was an incredibly difficult archetype to obtain, but I did have quite the wonderful model.

You were magnificent, Louis Guiaburn.

I will not forget you for as long as I live.

If you've never played Persona 3 before, you should definitely find the time to invest it in. It has an incredible story and it has arguably some of the best social links in the entire franchise. I also liked the main cast and the music in this game slaps hard.

That being said, as a port in 2023 it is awful. The audio sometimes sounds like mind-boggling noise and the "remastered" visuals look like it was thrown in a budget AI upscaler. There is also a lack of 3D cutscenes which make playing this game feel like a slog. This is not even considering the gameplay aspects of this port, as Tartarus is a nightmare to grind along with the fact it's absolutely terrible trying to fuse personas. You know that something is wrong when I feel like dropping the game at the CLIMAX of the story.

I recommend either waiting for this game to go on sale or just running the games (FES and Portable) on an emulator.

If you like inflicting pain on yourself, having your base griefed by friends, and get murdered by monkeys and giants, this is the game for you!

Persona 4 Golden makes me wish I was back in high school and did more with the friends I had. Although some gameplay aspects are partially clunky, this is more than made up for the phenomenal soundtrack, story, and characters that bring to life the beauty of pursuing the truth.

Anyone who has played Persona 5 should definitely play this game. Even if you aren't familiar with the Persona series, any casual looking into RPGs should give this game a chance. I would purchase this game even at full price just because of how much I was blown away by the experience.
