I have beaten this game 3-4 times over the 10 years I owned it on Vita. It's an amazing experience. Genuinely a 10 out of 10 for me. Even the weakest part with the dungeons doesn't detract from the game as they are still engaging with the combat. The story is perfect with some of the best arcs in the franchise. Can't say enough good about it. Must buy game.
@@zen6529 But they aren't weak per say. They are far far better than 3 but a bit weaker and less grand than 5. They don't have any annoying gameplay moments either. They're just average. Also it's my 10.
Agree. I put it off for so long but once I finally picked it back up again and blasted through to the end of the game, new game plus was an instant must. You would not believe how much content one would miss on their first playthrough.
@@zen6529 I think completing a game of this length 3-4 times and enjoying it definitely warrants a 10/10 score regardless of any weaker points - that's a lot of hours to invest in something! I'd probably give it an 8/9 myself, but you're not the authority on scoring, so if the commenter says it's a 10 to them, who are you to tell them they can't score it a 10?
I played this for the first time after Persona 5 and fell in love. This was during the height of the pandemic when no one could go anywhere, and I wanted to throw myself into a game as a bit of escapism. I got the Platinum trophy for it and I look forward to doing so again!
I played through P5R for the Switch, then immediately restarted it again because it was that good. When I get done with Strikers, I'll probably start this one. Hoping there's a physical release for this and P3P by then!
this is in my opinion the best one, I didn't feel sad at the end not seeing more of the characters in P5, but in p4g they feels like friends you won't spend more time with by the time the game ends
If there isn’t physical even in Japan i doubt there will be but can be hopeful. Other than the dungeon design and gameplay i think these Persona games better than 5 so give them a shot vs replaying 5 again
Having spent over 70 hours in P5R since Christmas and loving it, this one has been on radar for ages given its popularity online. Looks right up my ally
@@bronzeagemindset oh definitely; not going to jump in right away, especially as I have university work to do over the next few months. Might buy it, then leave it in the backlog for a while. Too much stuff coming out this year as well
I was pretty disappointed in the story and some… let’s say not-well-aged decisions, but I enjoyed it all the same. It’s more different than P5R than you’d probably think but I’m sure most people will find it pretty enjoyable, even if it left me with a sorta… sour aftertaste
Hands down my favorite video game of all time. I've never been so immersed in a story or game before or since. P3 and P5 were both great, but P4's intimate small-town setting and focus on overcoming typical insecurities of young people, rather than world-ending predicaments, makes it the standout for me.
I’m always happy to see so many people excited about my favorite game of all time it honestly changed my life when I was about 12 so it just makes me smile so many other people can experience it
This game was the reason I got a PS Vita and it was worth every penny. Followed every bit of Persona 5 news in time for the release on PS4 and now I'm hearing rumours of a Persona 3 full remake in the works 👀
I have never played Persona 3. I will get it on the Switch if the rumours are true. The main character's persona is awesome got to see it in p5R unlike the op Inazami from P4G ;)
@@theimortal1974 I believe that's my favorite too lol. It's called "SMILE" and that piece is just...the greatest! And "your affection" is another masterpiece!
I know some of us are too young to remember, but It was because of P3's and P4's success that P5 was a AAA release in the first place. P4 was particularly successful after the breakout Persona 3. Persona 3 saw three unique releases (FES & P3P), while Persona 4 saw the game perfected with the Golden variant. All this before Persona 5 was a glimmer in the eye. Persona was already mainstream. P5 was a beneficiary of the franchise's mainstream success, not its progenitor.
I really love the other Personas but this one will always be my favorite. I grew up with it 😍 I am German and I learned English with this game. I have so many memories with p4 and I can't wait to play it tomorrow and the best thing, it has now German subtitles 😍😍😍❤️❤️
The music, the art style, the characters, everything is so good! I finished P3 two times, and P5 once, now I'm playing P4 and it is an amazing experience. Can't get enough of this series.
This is a game that no matter how many times I complete it, I will still go back and reply at least once a year and not change a single thing about my play thru but still enjoy it almost as much as I did the first time. I say almost only because your first play thru of this game is special and just can’t be matched. Absolutely worth $20 Also, 60fps on the switch is a very nice touch.
The last JRPG I had played was Final Fantasy 7...when it was NEW. Also I've never been much into Anime at all. So when I grabbed this game on Steam (mainly because it was on sale and all the reviews were calling it "one of the best games of all time"), I didn't really know what to expect and it was a massive change of pace compared to what I normally play. It took quite a while to get into it but ultimately I ended up loving it and now I'm halfway through P5 Royal. Persona 5's characters haven't yet grabbed me overall quite on the level that P4's did, but maybe that will change. Except Morgana--I constantly wish I could punt that damn cat into traffic
I fell in love with the series from P4 and I think it’s worth playing this before 5R so you can see the progression on game mechanics and such. The music here is also amazing
@@Seydrey I'm just starting but I already like the game a lot more than P5r for that reason. I couldn't relate to the "everyone hates me without knowing me" bit in the beginning. It made me not like a lot of the characters. Plus, I found Ryuji a bit annoying so that was also a negative. I did like the game, but could have liked it more if the characters weren't such assholes
Just beat Persona 5 after 103 hours and WOO BOY was it easily the best game I've played in years. Can't wait to jump into this, heard it's dungeons and such arent as great but the social links, story and combat still are unbelievably amazing. Again - can't fucking wait.
I'm so hyped for this game put 200+ hours into ps5 royal and never experienced 4 golden but I'm 100% sure I'm going to end up putting 200+ hours into this can't wait
@@YuriKozukata5533 Not in my opinion. Lots of the writing in P4 is tacky and did not age well with Teddie's pervy-humour , but yeah still a great game nonetheless. P5 and P5R (and P3P) are superior in my personal opinion
This is the only Persona game I've beaten so far, but it is definitely the best JRPG I've ever played. The only gripe I have with it is that dungeons are pretty tedious and repetitive and the battles become boring soon, but the story and characters are so good that I was willing to overlook it. Now, even a few years after beating it, I feel nostalgic and want to return to the sweet town of Inaba and meet all of these wonderful characters again every time I hear the game's amazing soundtrack.
I honestly am thankful of my brother getting me the Vita and amongst the bundle of games he bought happens to be P4 Golden. Love the story, enjoyed the gameplay, ups and downs with relationships. Even someone like me back then who didn't understand having a Waifu got into loving a character so much, she became my absolute favorite in all the games I've played (Second being Lucina who ironically was in the game that got me into Fire Emblem).

@@grimreaper5864 To be honest getting the trophies was fun but wasn't easy so this time round I'm looking for a more chilled playthrough without worrying about missing out on a trophy
This game is getting a physical release on multiple consoles from Limited Run Games starting tomorrow, until December 10th. If anyone knows, will this game make any sense if I haven't played any others in the series?
All three persona games loved them but the first one who got me in this series was persona 5 royal the music storyline combat here in golden is the same feeling i had when i started playing persona 5
I got it on Steam last year, wished I waited to get it on the Switch (never thought Atlus would change their minds on a Nintendo port of their main persona games). Have Royal on PC, but will get P3 on Switch for sure.
Imho the best Persona game I've ever played. And I've beaten P5 Royal multiple times already at this point, but Persona 4 Golden is still my favourite.
I got a PS TV just to play Persona 4. It became my favorite in the series and one of my favorite games ever. It has more heart poured into it than any game I’ve ever played.
One of my favorite games of all time. The only thing that stops me from buying it a third time on Switch is the lack of a physical version. Glad to see it is 60fps though!
I remember playing it on ps2 and just not being able to comprehend it and then I played it on vita and smashed through it 3 times. My biggest regret is still selling my vita. I can’t wait to play it again
Persona 5 Royal is one of the greatest RPGs ever made. If you enter the series there, at first, it's hard to get into Persona 4, because the vibe is so different. But give it an hour or two to get to know the town and characters you realize that this is just a slower, less flashy, much more intimate story. Once you understand what it is, you fall in love with it. It's not the best JRPG, like 5 is, but it's top five to top ten easily. It's a must play.
While I preferred Persona 5 more, I need to give this game another shot. I only got about 30 hours in on my Vita before I just got tired and bounced off it. Just hearing that music brings back memories.
Arguably better cast and story. Music and setting is on par imo. Gameplay and Graphics are (logically) a few steps behind Persona 5. P4 is a PS2 game after all. P5 is a PS3/4 game. I think if you liked P5 you'll enjoy P4 as well. Not necessarily find it better than 5, but enjoy it nonetheless.
@@justasoulsfan9805 thanks for the answer! P5 had a pretty profound effect on me to be honest and was genuinely sad when the game ended, was almost like saying bye to some friends haha. Will have to look into this one
@@AtomicSabrewulf Just enjoy the ride :) Be prepared for a phenomenal story and loveable characters. In case you want to do a perfect playthrough you will need a guide but I recommend to not do this and just play and enjoy the game on your own :)
Please Atlus give us a physical version of this, as well as P3P. I loved this on Vita, but my Vita was stolen ages ago and I would love to own this again on Switch.
I originally played this on the Vita and am replaying it on the Steam Deck. If there is a physical copy for the Switch, I may need to pick that up to have. Classic game.
Not really a review of the game on switch but more a review of the gameplay and a synopsis of the gameplay / actions. Would've wanted to see more of the "this is what it's like on switch" aspect that makes your videos so original. Great videos overall and love this game, but felt this one was more of a summary and less of a review/what we typically see from ya'll.
The one that made the Path was Persona 3 on the PS2, please do you research. They launched Persona 3 and then the updated versión with an entra chapter Persona 3 Fes, P3 portable, those were the one to go mainstream first. Then Persona 4 continue gaining momentum, Persona 4 Golden, Persona 5 and Persona 5 Royal continue the tren of gaining more momentum. Yes, Persona 5 is the best selling but the one that got the series going on the US was Persona 3.
As someone who had only played P4 on the PS2....The small improvements on the game are a welcome surprise. Though....even with that you defenitely see the massive progress they have made with P5 and P5R ^^' I know that would have been too much work bakc in the day, but had they improved the dungeons it would be a 10/10 easily. Know it settles at a very good 8/10 for me.
I’m still super disappointed that Atlus made native ports of P3P and P4G on Seriee X with 4k 120 fps support but theirs no native PS5 release and it’s stuck at 1080 60 fps lol
Me sitting here 131 hours in and FINALLY finishing Persona 5 Royal after years of putting it off. Telling myself “I loved that game but I’m not putting myself through that roller coaster again……”. “…….let me see what Persona 4 is like.” 😂🤦
The part where they said to you can't get mad social ratings in one run unless a strict schedule is wrong, this is one of the easier ones to get max in one run
Finished this game for the first time recently, my first persona game and absolutely fantastic, if anyone (like me) wanted to play persona 3 fes after this then I would recommend emulating it and installing a controllable party member mod, the combat workes but it was just so boring untill I installed that mod that I almost stopped playing, I want to play the game not have it play itself for me
There's a thin narrative connection between P3 and P4 (which contains several references to its predecessor) that don't play a major part in the plot of P4, but P3 is harder. They are also very different in tone and atmosphere, which is why fans often joke that if depression was a game, P3 would be it. You can get the P3/P4 bundle for switch.
@@gotinogaden I'll say P3 is a bit closer to your mainline SMT with more grinding and repetitive maze-like dungeons, but still super worth it for the story (and great combat, of course). It definitely has a more serious tone across the game than P4, too. Depends what you want. I played P4G before P3P myself, I liked both but I kinda prefered the darker tone and writing of P3 (personal taste, of course)
This is still my all-time favorite RPG. Just an absolute masterpiece!

@@justasoulsfan9805 thanks for the answer! P5 had a pretty profound effect on me to be honest and was genuinely sad when the game ended, was almost like saying bye to some friends haha. Will have to look into this one
If I like playing Pokémon, would this be a good alternative to play (on Switch)?
It is. Ten times better than Pokémon.
@@FelixS. Sweet! This will be my first time ever playing a Persona game, so what should I take into account when playing?
@@AtomicSabrewulf Just enjoy the ride :) Be prepared for a phenomenal story and loveable characters. In case you want to do a perfect playthrough you will need a guide but I recommend to not do this and just play and enjoy the game on your own :)
@@FelixS. Awesome! 👍
This persona game alone destroys every Pokémon game (on the Switch)
Were the fogs, or the lack thereof, from the Vita and Steam release fixed?
Please Atlus give us a physical version of this, as well as P3P. I loved this on Vita, but my Vita was stolen ages ago and I would love to own this again on Switch.
SP conservation is really only an issue in the first dungeon only, just like P5
Today I bought Switch for this, this is my third p4 purchase in last 3 months
I am actually love The Original Chie VA, i hope there is a remake for the original too.. :(
I originally played this on the Vita and am replaying it on the Steam Deck. If there is a physical copy for the Switch, I may need to pick that up to have. Classic game.
Not really a review of the game on switch but more a review of the gameplay and a synopsis of the gameplay / actions. Would've wanted to see more of the "this is what it's like on switch" aspect that makes your videos so original. Great videos overall and love this game, but felt this one was more of a summary and less of a review/what we typically see from ya'll.
Does this game run differently on PS5 versus on the switch?
does it have japanese voices ?
Yes it does.
@@exce1968 nice, thanks
I play this game from PS2 persona 4..and play it on vita as persona 4 golden..play like 7 or 8 times..I still want to play it again on switch.. ❤️
Bruh asked if it's worth it lol it was literally a system seller.
Does this release have Japanese VA option?
The one that made the Path was Persona 3 on the PS2, please do you research. They launched Persona 3 and then the updated versión with an entra chapter Persona 3 Fes, P3 portable, those were the one to go mainstream first. Then Persona 4 continue gaining momentum, Persona 4 Golden, Persona 5 and Persona 5 Royal continue the tren of gaining more momentum. Yes, Persona 5 is the best selling but the one that got the series going on the US was Persona 3.
I have Persona 3 FES on my phone but I can't wait to play Persona 4 Golden on switch
i know Persona 4 and 5 don’t have linking stories but does anyone have recommendations on which to play first?
Persona 4 first
4. You will be disappointed after playing 5Royal first, because it is the pinnacle of the franchise.
Persona 5 is like the masterpiece of the series while these older game are good but bad graphics and some bad gameplay, so I would start with 4
Why can't I find this on amazon for preorder?
@Brandon ofc but I just assumed it would be available to order already
@Brandon ahh for some reason I assumed there would be physical releases, my bad! Cheers anyway!
@@Switch2itz I think there is a chance for a LRG release or so in a couple of months.
@@FelixS. I hope so, physical on ps2 nowadays is crazy expensive
@@Switch2itz well I own them luckily but I would prefer to play them on current tech and as a collector I always prefer to have my games physical :)
Every days great at, your, junes~!
As someone who had only played P4 on the PS2....The small improvements on the game are a welcome surprise. Though....even with that you defenitely see the massive progress they have made with P5 and P5R ^^'
I know that would have been too much work bakc in the day, but had they improved the dungeons it would be a 10/10 easily.
Know it settles at a very good 8/10 for me.
1080p on dock?
I’m still super disappointed that Atlus made native ports of P3P and P4G on Seriee X with 4k 120 fps support but theirs no native PS5 release and it’s stuck at 1080 60 fps lol
Do yourselves a favor and get it on steam, installing the Community Enhancement Patch.
Much better experience IMO
Is this the same port as the PC version? or is it more updated?
its the same
can you play persona 4 offline on switch?
Of course
I feel sorry for those who didn't get the chance to (or chose not to) play P4G on Vita. It was perfection. This is next best thing though.
this game is a must play
its worth ever penny, im playing it on Gamepass now, i was hooked playing Persona V Royal, now im hooked playing this🙆🏼♂️
Me sitting here 131 hours in and FINALLY finishing Persona 5 Royal after years of putting it off. Telling myself “I loved that game but I’m not putting myself through that roller coaster again……”. “…….let me see what Persona 4 is like.” 😂🤦
Have the original ps2 copy but haven’t been able to finish it. I’ll get this one and be committed
Did I get the game when it released on Steam? yes
Will I get it on Nintendo Switch? YES!
Why are you buying a game you already have?
The part where they said to you can't get mad social ratings in one run unless a strict schedule is wrong, this is one of the easier ones to get max in one run
Finished this game for the first time recently, my first persona game and absolutely fantastic, if anyone (like me) wanted to play persona 3 fes after this then I would recommend emulating it and installing a controllable party member mod, the combat workes but it was just so boring untill I installed that mod that I almost stopped playing, I want to play the game not have it play itself for me
Can't decide if to play this first or Persona 3. I've played Persona 5 Royal
There's a thin narrative connection between P3 and P4 (which contains several references to its predecessor) that don't play a major part in the plot of P4, but P3 is harder. They are also very different in tone and atmosphere, which is why fans often joke that if depression was a game, P3 would be it. You can get the P3/P4 bundle for switch.
@@gotinogaden I'll say P3 is a bit closer to your mainline SMT with more grinding and repetitive maze-like dungeons, but still super worth it for the story (and great combat, of course). It definitely has a more serious tone across the game than P4, too. Depends what you want. I played P4G before P3P myself, I liked both but I kinda prefered the darker tone and writing of P3 (personal taste, of course)
I've played P3P, P4G, and P5R, and I gotta say that P3P is my favorite one. I love the story, music, characters, tone, etc.
P5 did not do the heavy lifting. It rode on the back of p4 golden’s success
Guys the answer is always yes there's no need to watch the video this game is a work of art
