Persona 4 Golden |OT| Love is the only gold.

Same here. She fluctuates between tolerable and awful. Overall, her voice doesn't fit the character in my opinion though, and she sounds weird to have such a cartoonish voice when everyone else in the game sounds so serious and normal.
English Yosuke is the best though. He gets it dead on.

Is there any way to disable the auto-dimming of the screen?
It kicks in 2 or 3 times a cutscene unless I tap a shoulder button or rub a screen edge like it's a nervous tic.

I have to hit X after quickly reading her text so I don't hear too much of it. It's that bad. Ugh.
Also, why the hell doesn't this let me use a quick tap of the touch screen to progress the novel sections? Such an obvious feature, Atlus!
Well, you can move an analogue stick to get rid of it, I think.
But the 'proper' way is to increase the sleep timer in the Vita's settings.
Yep, I've only done half an hour of the English version before I turned it off, but after the opening scene, I've been skipping most of Chie's lines.
After playing a bunch of VLR, I was so disappointed when it didn't just do this.

What did they do with the Persona models in this game? They look really good. It's like, I don't how to describe it, they seem more translucent when summoning and smoother.
Added a Fresnel effect.
EDIT: Just to expand on that, it's basically an indirect light-reflection. You see it games like Mario Galaxy and 3D Land a lot.
How do I start the Emperor social link?
So I'm not the only one. Once or twice I've caught myself tapping the screen by habit.
I swore I had to speak to a girl at the school first, but no one is mentioning Kanji.

I fucking hate it when he does that.
Alas, postie popped by today but no Persona 4 Golden. Day ruined.
Yup. Yosuke's VA is awesome. I think Dojima's VA is quite good also.
My heart goes out to all the NeoGAFfers that are having shipping issues.

Ah, yeah, I definitely recognize the effect now. Real upgrade.
You no like ゆきこ? <cries inside> j/k To each his own.
I am a pretty impressed with Atlus' VA choices, at least to my ears.
Me too. I wish the SOS would help with story/quest info.
Boy in the shrine gives you a beetle for a random food item. Take that to the pub at night to get the hook.
Talk to the first kid at the Shrine during the day, he'll tell you he wants something to drink or eat. Get that item (steak from the steak place next to Aiya in north shopping area, or drinks from the vendng machines) and bring it to him. He'll give you a ladybug or two for it.
At night, go to the Shiroku Pub. Feed her fish the ladybug and he'll cough up the fishhook and you'll also get some bread crumbs. Bread crumbs and ladybugs are both different kinds of bait which you can use while fishing, you can trade one ladybug for some bread crumbs once a night here.
Icons over quest people's heads is my favorite stealth change.
That + picking spells in fusions.
Thank you based persona.
One thing driving me nuts is camera.
I like a normal human being want the right trigger AND pushing right on the analog stick to move the camera to the right. Yet one will always go right the other left.
Why in the hell would you ever not have those both go right?

So shiny... he does look like he'd fit right in with Mario Galaxy.
Yeah. It's a good, easy way to make something look ethereal or soft. 3DS games abuse the hell out of it. It's just on everything.
Invert the camera, that should fix it.
Obviously not.
This is the best version of the game to get. Many good fixes and a chunk of content you won't get in the PS2 version. It's got the scenes and more.
My favorite minor change I just happened to notice... you can change the order of your Persona's skills. That should put back a little bit of the time wasted I lost from being able to choose skills now.
Much appreciated. Can't wait!
Loooooool. Last Resort still one shots everyone on my team. Gotta prepare for those guys. Nice thing is they're courteous enough to just Stand By if you don't do anything to them.
Yeah, that was really useful.
With this new skill card system I haven't had to use any other persona except Izanagi. Spiffy.
Yeah, I'm playing on hard so every fight with them in a mixed group is a chore.

It's funny how so many people see the restart at battle/floor as a boon yet more hardcore Megaten fans (and myself) see it as further casualisation and dumbing down, it's part of the reason I picked very hard.

You're not experiencing all the awesome persona in the game though!
I had to get up at 6:30am to go to work this morning. I played Persona 4 until 3. Sigh. This effing game.
I see yor point. I'm going to limit myself on using the feature.

All you get is bonus hp and sp at the start of a battle. Nothing else.

Stupid class questions.
At least you can use browser while playing a game now.

Haven't played much yet but I'm enjoying it (unsurprisingly, I loved my first playthrough back when the original came out).
Chie's voice is weirding me out, though. She sounds a little too peppy, a little too shrieky. It's not bad, but it's also not Chie. And I'm sure I'll get over it eventually, it's not awful.
I do appreciate that the game itself runs at the Vita's native resolution, menus and character portraits are nice and sharp. I can't tell if the 3D stuff is upscaled, though, or if it's just got a bunch of filters over it that makes it looks a bit muddy.

It is funny that so many people these days say the new voice is not at all Chie, which was the biggest complaint the old one got at the one of it's reveal and the launch of the game, along with sounding too old. The new vo sounds far more like her JP voice. just goes to show how many people can get attached to a character it seems.
It really doesn't.

It does. I also found her JP voice annoying.

No, it doesn't. The JP VA doesn't sound like a child, doesn't have a semi lisp, isn't nasally and isn't hyperactive. They're nothing alike.

That sounds far younger then the character is, has a kind of shrill annoyingly high pitched tone to it and has non stop over emphasis during every line.
I would say new chie and JP chie are far more alike then they are different.

Agree with the guy above.
Playing this on very hard is interesting, completely different than my experience with finishing P4 Vanilla on Normal.

With all the prolific hate for Erin Fitzgerald's Chie delivery, any thoughts on who would have done a better job considering that Tracey Rooney was unavailable?
My suggestion... Kari Wahlgren.
Tara Strong would have been fun, too... but I assume she would have been too expensive.

I think the current actress would have been perfectly fine if they could have reigned in all the fluctuation her voice has at times. I assume since they were only redoing two voices they didn't spend as much time getting it right as they normally would.
I don't really have any preference though as the only thing I really look for in a VA is that it not be annoying enough to break my immersion in a scene which new chie isn't bad enough to do that for me.
