Persona 4 Golden is a game where I loved the plot, not just the gameplay. There were so many aspects to this game that made it feel real. I could go to school in Japan, explore Inaba, interact with virtual characters, make decisions on my own, etc... Everything was so detailed. The complex story captured my interest. The best aspect of this game was the amount of life lessons I learned. For example, there was a strong emphasis on the bonds we have with others. Our bonds are our power and reason to overcome life's difficulties. The game also made it clear that people tend to have facades to hide what they really feel. A person might experience life but be dissatisfied with it. I have learned to be respectful of others because they may secretly be dealing with personal problems. More importantly, I have learned to accept myself for who I am. Instead of worrying about what I am not, I appreciate myself for what I am becoming. I will change as a person as I get older. There is no time in my life to worry about such insignificant things. I consider this game a masterpiece above all for its compelling story and its recognizability
