Persona 4 Was NEVER About Truth.

Persona 4’s story was LYING TO YOU! And I can prove it… 😱 Regarded as having one of the best stories in the Persona game series, Persona 4 Golden has an extremely deep and complex narrative with themes surrounding truth. However, today I am going to be challenging what we all thought we knew about this theme of ‘truth’ in Persona 4 Golden’s narrative as I will be proposing an alternative perspective and interpretation on the story’s core message. Persona 4’s story consists of a mystery with different truths being revealed in the form of different character’s struggles, such as Yukiko who builds a princess castle because she has spent years constructing a fairy tale where someone will eventually rescue her from Inaba, rather than face the fact that she is the only person with the power to change her own situation. And also Naoto who constructs an underground laboratory where she is treated as an ageless genius detective, because the truth of her situation is something she has been outrunning her entire career. The central theme of truth comes to a head with the GOLDEN ending that the player can get in Persona 4 Golden which acts as the true ending to the game. These different elements of the story separate Persona 4 Golden from other games in the Persona series such as Persona 5 Royal and Persona 3 Reload. Needless to say, I think you’ve been LIED to about Persona 4’s story! You could even say that today I will be EXPOSING Persona 4's story once and for all. #persona4golden #persona4 #p4g
