ATLUS finally did something that I've been complaining to them about for a long time - both on Twitter and YouTube - they have finally released P4G on the PC.

By the way, where is the YouTube trailer? Where is the big announcement by ATLUS? You know, ‘’THIS IS IT! ATLUS IS FINALLY RELEASING PERSONA 4 GOLDEN TO PC! FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE HISTORY OF EVER! EVERYONE, GET EXCITED!!! COMING 13TH JUNE! GET IT NOW!’’

Let it be known, all around the gaming community, that june 13th, 2020 is the ‘’Persona 4 Golden day’’. For this is the day that ATLUS finally released Persona 4 Golden to PC, the first time in the history of ever.
...By the way, I do know that Catherine was made by ATLUS and also came to PC with no big announcement behind it but ...but, you know, that's not a MegaTen/Persona game.

I never thought in a million years that ATLUS would one day make a PC port of a Persona game ...ever. But lo and behold, here it is, at last. Of all the platforms, I thought ATLUS would either release P4G on the NEW3DS or on the Switch.

The excuse I see from Persona/MegaTen fans is "ATLUS doesn’t think the PC is THAT PROFITABLE and they don't have any statistics and… bla bla bla" even though the PC market has been more and more profitable over the years, and finally got more attention in the 2010s.

With the release of P4G, my hope of ever seeing P5R on PC has been heightened. The fact that P4G finally did release to PC is a good sign. And I hope foreshadows things to come.

Here is hoping ATLUS will turn this into a healthy habit of releasing more of their games to PC.

Please, keep it up ATLUS :)



-The Positive

1. In comparison to the original P4, you can finally choose your preferred spell / skill on to your persona, instead of being all like X, O, X, O, X, O ...until you finally get your preferred skills

2. The Story is great. When I played the original Persona 4 not that long ago, I could see the subconscious story pattern between P5’s story and P4. (don’t worry, you don’t have to play P4 to know the story of P5)

3. The extra character(s) with new S. Links(confidants)

4. More holidays and events, in comparison to the original P4

5. More soundtracks, in comparison to the original P4

6. There is no level-scaling, so enemies will be the same level they were when you finished that area. (I personally don’t like level-scaling in my RPGs. I’m very happy that ATLUS has been conservative throughout the years with their RPG philosophy)

7. In comparison to the original P4, you can finally cast buffs and debuffs without waiting for the first effect to go away.

8. I like the new VA for Teddie and Chie (in my opinion).


-The Negative

1. That special car-chase cutscene hasn’t aged well. (If it is at all possible, I'm going to download a MOD that is going to replace all the special cutscenes from the Anime)

2. The PS2/VITA graphic hasn’t aged so well. (There are some people talking about how they are going to MOD P4G with the P4 dancing models but… but how is THAT going to make things look better with everything else around them? such as the PS2 houses and other PS2 styled NPCs and enemies)

3. There is no ‘’very fast battle’’-option like in Persona Q; so, if you are going to grind levels, then open up YT in the background or something, it’s gonna take a while.
