Yeah, i dont think it’s necessarily bad, i get rustled easy by combat systems that get “deeper and better!” When i am halfway through or in this case done and come back to try new content and everything is different in “small but not small” ways lol.

So its like i go back and replay the final boss just for fun- and the attack breaks system on the final had like 6-8 things to break the combo- now its like a dozen… and yeah, it works kinda different but its like , gotta learn it all again and i was just bleh… that patch added a smidge of story so i was interested, clawing at something to imo redeem the bungle of the finally - but I just gave up

Gotta be honest, a lot of these western developed "jrpg" games are kind of like drinking a lacroix orange vs. an orange juice. You get a hint of what they are doing, but it isn't nearly the same.

Just don't even bother with ARPG or ERPGs. Every time I play one I just think, "Man I'd rather be playing From Software instead" and end up just doing that. I was even replaying KOTOR II recently and ended up just stopping after the Pelagus level and ended up replaying Elden Ring instead.

Pretty sure a domain name for a Persona 4 remake was found so yeah, it's just a matter of time.

Wait there's a base game for that? I thought it was just the PS2 and Steam releases, which should include the special characters?

NM - just googled and apparently they're DLC... on a 20 year old game?

Chronicle Pack is free, you just have to make sure to select Chronicle mode when starting a new game in order to get Matador, the Raidou content, etc.

Maniax Pack is the exact same thing, except Dante replaces Raidou and it costs $10 because Atlus had to re-license the rights.

--------------------
Speaking of Raidou, the Mystery of the Soulless Army remaster releases tomorrow. Sadly it's not on Game Pass day 1, unlike the Persona remakes. Pretty much guaranteed that it'll show up on there eventually though.

Edit: Vorph already covered the Chronicle mode thing.
