Persona 4 team performs a postmortem

by Justin McElroy { Oct 6th 2009 at 6:15PM }

You would assume, perhaps wisely, that a Persona 4 postmortem would refer to performing an autopsy on a poor soul who died of old age while trying to finish the epically long RPG. But all we've got for you today is the game's creators discussing the highs and lows of development with Gamasutra.

As is usual, the "lows" are actually just the difficult parts of designing the game rather than what didn't work about the title, but it's still worth a read to see how Atlus tackled the Herculean task of creating a 100-hour game that at least some of you lived to see the end of.

The writing was hilarious in that game. I didn't finish it (wayyyy too much grinding for my taste) but it was great while it lasted. The characters are great too.
