Just finished Persona 4 Golden yesterday, it was my first Persona game and I really enjoyed it. Probably the best time I've had with a game in quite a while.

My favorite aspect of the game was definitely the characters. For the most part they all felt well-developed (Naoto and Teddie in particular) and were just fun to interact with. The overall story itself was fine, kind of repetitive before it really kicked in towards the end, but I honestly didn't mind since I just enjoyed these characters pretty much regardless of what was happening (Though I could have done without the cliched beach and hot springs scenes).

Since I'd never played a Persona game before, I found the gameplay kind of difficult at first, but after getting the hang of it I really enjoyed it, especially the way the elemental weakness system functioned. Battles felt much more tactical than most other RPGs I've played.

Overall I really loved this game, so I'm excited to get more into this series. Starting Persona 3 today!
