Poll of the Day > What was the deal with Persona 4's story near the end there? *Spoilers

(+) Yeah! (+)

Some nonsense about izanami and izanagi and a gas station attendant? Lol what? What the hell happened. They had such a fun murder mystery plot going and a scooby gang feel.

Maybe they should have spent more time on the story instead of releasing it just a year after Persona 3...

Yeah it was pretty awful and extremely dumb. Especially the really dumb way you had to get to that ending.

Izanami was testing people

Yeah I actually had to consult a faq on the correct way to get the correct ending. It was kinda super bs how to get to it, and "it" wasn't even all that great.
---

I never had a problem with it.

Plus, the real satisfaction of the ending comes from the transformation of all the characters who you've watched develops throughout the game. And their tear jerking farewell :(

This is like when people complained at the end of LOST because we didn't get all the answers. That's not what LOST was about. It was about the characters and relationships.

I stopped playing after beating the shit out of Adachi and the thing after that.
Beating the shit of of them is just meaning attacking and being invincible due to the persona's skills.
It bored me to death at that point.

oh yeah getting the real ending was definity a buzzkill, especially considering its a SMT game, a series known for giving the player choices no other game would, having a "good ending" and having it locked away behind some specific bullshit is appalling

The Persona hardly follows SMT mainline's alternate ending format. You have a bunch of bad endings from making some dumb decision and one good ending in the Persona series.

Don't really care much for regular smt so can't comment on that

Yeah, kill the guy you thought was the murderer instead of turning him over to the police.
