Persona 4 Golden is an update of the critically acclaimed PlayStation 2 role-playing game. New additions and changes have been made exclusively for the PlayStation Vita.
Basically, it confirms February is going to be in the game. So it's possible that the entire time that the time skip from the original occurs (12/25 to 3/20) might be playable.
@FluxWaveZ: Oh. I wasn't completely sure if the entire time skip was being taken up or not. I don't remember reading anywhere about whether or not it would. Do you have a source?
@SonGoten: I don't know whether the whole time skips are actually going to be replaced and I don't have a source either (although I do recall them mentioning this), but the new events like making a snowman with Nanako or Halloween in addition to Marie stuff is supposed to take place during those time skips.
@FluxWaveZ: Oh, well I've screens of stuff happening in January before, so I knew SOME of the major (12/25 to 3/20) time skip was going to be replaced with new events. But as far as I know, there hasn't been any screenshots or videos showing anything taking place during February until now. So I was just wondering if maybe that the entire time that the major time skip originally took place might be playable in this.
Oh come on they're making this even better than Persona 4! I know that sounds like a complain... but it kinda is , I want Persona 3 the Silver Atlus, P3P didn't do it's justice I know that won't happen but it'd be the 3rd Persona 3 expansion think about it! , just listening to that new track an animated scenes makes me want more a re-done version of P3 with new cutscenes and new killer tracks.
Seriously though, that was a LOT of new content. Holy crap. The only thing stopping me from getting too excited is, as stupid as it sounds, the platform it's being made for. First I have to buy a Vita (which is less of a problem now with so many awesome games), but two - the 3-5 hour battery life doesn't seem conducive to an RPG experience. This sounds like a first-world problem (boohoo, my game shut off only after playing for 4 hours), but it seems like a problem nonetheless. Then again, if I'm gaming for 5 hours straight on a handheld, maybe I'm the one with the problems.
PS From the (brief) look of it, they've changed up the dungeons, which, if true, would be a godsend. After playing through P3 and P4, I am literally exhausted from their randomly-generated dungeons, which are tedium incarnate. I would much rather have 5 hand-crafted levels than 10 (or 130) R-G levels.
Chie and Yukiko double team? Charlie running into a shadow with a scooter? Man, I really don't want to get a Vita, but I really want to play this Day 1....
If they make all these months playable, then they better add more social links so that way we have something to do. Also, what about dungeons? Will we just have months of spare time, with nothing to do?
@CH3BURASHKA: I've been playing a lot of Vita games and P3P, and the battery life never seems short (Though P3P is the one I've played the most in one session, and the battery life is longer due to it being a PSP game).
The wire on the charger is pretty long, so when you're at home you're probably fine, and I can't see myself playing a 5 hour session of one game while traveling.
