Nocturne got a re-print in 2008. So it's actually still selling due to the increasing demand.
Hm... Possible spoilers for Persona 4 below..
And, I couldn't stand P4. Poor villain with next to no sound reasoning for what was caused, a bunch of forcible moralistic dribble about a mary-sue character (Especially annoying to deal with because kids starve and die in third world countries everyday), and too much focus on the belief that justice can always prevail. It was just poor storytelling.
Then, on a more practical note, once you get the True ending, the person in the fog no longer makes any sense because nobody was against the continued saving of people. ALL the possible suspects of being this person WANTED the cycle of the party saving people to continue.
I admit, I am rather harsh on the game's flaws and that's partly due to the fact they couldn't stop talking about Nanako for two sentences near the end of the game, but I just found the whole thing poorly contrived by the end of the game and felt very disappointed. It felt like a Megaten that went against the initial themes of human weakness while trying to give everyone a personal touch to better understand their feelings.
By the end of the game, it was more-so a typical JRPG ending about discovering truth when all they characters really did was go back to their social situations but stopped complaining about them as if their emotions weren't relevant. Either that, or forcibly try to give too much sympathy to just one side of the two opposing forces like those random paparazzi in Yukiko's social link.
