Revision as of 23:53, 15 June 2020
Persona 4 Golden is a remaster of the JRPG game Persona 4 and Persona 4 Golden, previously released July 10, 2008 on PlayStation 2 and June 14, 2012 on PlayStation Vita, featuring enhanced graphics and upscaled cinematics. The game includes a new dungeon, a new ending, new social links, new difficulty levels and many more.[1] It was remastered by Atlus and Preapp Partners.
Persona 4 was released on Steam on June 13, 2020, following a surprise announcement on the PC Gaming Show.
In a technical review, IGN described Persona 4 Golden as "a fantastic way to play [the] game, with solid graphics options, arbitrary resolution and framerate support, relatively fast loading times, and good support for remappable keyboard controls" as well as "Steam features such as achievements and cloud saves being included, and even the minor online aspects of the “Golden” version were faithfully ported".[2]

Lagging videos
- Certain video files' bitrate exceeds 30 Mbps, which may be too much for slower storage mediums to decode in real-time.
Use Unp4cker to extract videos and re-encode at a lower bitrate[5]
|

P4G.exe .
- From
Compatibility tab, press Change high DPI settings .
- Check
Overwrite high DPI scale settings and from dropdown select Application .

Using Playstation Vita save files
