Okay guys, I always thought Persona 4 Golden ( PS Vita ) was for me one overrated game (not more) then a few days I decided to start replay it ( I bought the physical media game in 2012 played 1 hour and never touched the game ) at last I began to replay on Christmas day 25 and so far I'm more than 8 hours of play and realized that the game is fantastic , the characters are fantastic, the dialogues are very good, the mysteries of the story is engaging and the gameplay It is very good and challenging especially in the boss battle .

My verdict so far is because I have not played this before !? the game is fantastic by the time :) and this only increases my hype endless times to shin megami tensei x fire emblem and persona 5

PS: ( I played Persona 4 Arena on ps3 , persona 3 on psp and persona Q in 3ds )

Yeah the beginning is kind of slow. I had the same problem and I stopped playing. But I decided to give it another try and I'm glad I did because it's now my favorite game of all time.

This. I played something like 3 hours in months, found it boring and didn't care about it at all. And then I had to choose a few games for a vacation week away, and thought "Meh, I'll give it another try, I guess...". I played 60+ hours in less than a week, didn't want to stop playing until the end. So yes, slow beginning for an awesome game. 

A class-mate of mine forced me to take his Vita in order to play Persona 4 Golden (he's trying to indoctrinate everyone into liking it), 70 hours later it's one of my favorite games of all time :P
Got me more hype for Persona 5 than anything other on Playstation in 2016.
