Similar games to play?

[Dylan]

Just finished the game, got the true (golden?) ending, feel very sad. Need more of this in my life to fill the gaping hole that rise (best girl) left in my heart.

Any other games similar to this one? In terms of characters and relationships more than combat.

Persona 3 FES, played on a ps2 emulator, original persona 5, played on a ps3 emulator, or persona 5 royal on the ps4, and mainline Shin megami tensie games.

Apparently talking about emulation in these forums is wrong. Got a warning after talking about it (even tho I didn't say much)

So just watch videos explaining. It's pretty easy

Focus on playing Persona 3 FES and Persona 5. Which are the ones you can play on PC

Nothing really comes close or similar. You have to try the other Persona series!

Yes, of course but I was also looking to see if there were similar games that weren't of the persona series that were on PC. Then again, just playing the next game in the series through an emulator would make the most sense.

Noted!

Tokyo Xanadu eX+ is pretty much a Persona game (with real-life simulator by day and dungion crawler by night) but with real-time action game instead of turn-based JRPG game.

Also the eX+ version on Steam is also the PSVita expansion version of the original released on PS2 just like P4G is compared with the original P4.

And also Rion is basically a pink-haired Rise.

If you have a Nintendo Switch, there are two games that are similar to Persona 4 in various aspects that I think you will enjoy.

1. Fire Emblem: Three Houses
People have been saying this is the Fire Emblem x Persona game that's much better than the official Fire Emblem x Persona game (Tokyo Mirage). You get to live a school year day by day but not as a student in modern Japan but as a teacher at a magic academy in a fantasy medieval setting.

Like Persona 4, FE3H is also a coming-of-age story of all the students you teach. The character development is incredible and you'll have a blast watching them grow up. There are multiple romance options in this game too.

You can see the trailer here:

(If this trailer can make you a little interested in the game, just give it a try without looking it up on Google or Youtube because there're a lot of spoilers there)

2. Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (you don't need to play 1 first)
Underneath a very grand adventure, this game tells a very small, very personal coming-of-age story similar to what I appreciate a lot in P4G. XC2's soundtrack is legendary. I even like it a little more than P4G's soundtrack which I adore a lot.

If you can look beyond the ridiculous clothes, this game is a gem with very high production quality.

If you prefer the Japanese dub in the story trailer, you can change to it in game too.

Don't listen to the people recommending the mainline Shin Megam Tensei games: they can't be any more different from the Persona games.
Honestly, the only games remotely similar to Persona 4 are Persona 3 and 5.

Cold Steel is only superficially like Persona.

Like, at heart they're still Trails games, and occasionally have a time when you can spend social points for 20 second scenes.

Closest you'll get is Three Houses.

[Destiny's hand]

there is also Digimon Story: cyber sleuth/ hackers memory, it's a very persona game
