I would like to see Bike follow ups replaced, they are way too damn random. Make em like Theurgy but summon someone off field.
Making Marie more organically involved in the game would be cool. Like have her appear in some Link events for other characters.
Better leveling system than Golden's broken leveling that removed the scaling XP that's present in all the other Persona games P3, P 3 P, P 3 R, P4, P5, P5 Royal... Golden is the only one that's missing it and because of it you end up level 99 by Naoto's dungeon.
Fix the broken voice acting in dungeons, like finding floors is completely silent in the English version of golden.
Fix up P4's more simplistic combat, bring in Light and Dark as an actual element like 5 and Reload, hell weapon types returning would be cool as it was still in P4's code just they made it so all weapons and skills did slash damage and changed the labels.

I wonder if they're going to change the English VAs again like what happened to P3R... Because I remember Kanji already having two English voice actors between the original game, the anime adaptation, and the subsequent spin-offs.
With Great Power, Comes Great MotivationThat would be the case — going from Troy Baker to Matt Mercer, the latter already voicing Yusuke in P5 so theoretically he could come back — Mercer still does a lot of work for PCB Productions after all.
Changing up the voice cast would be based on the parent company's demand.

Memers: Hm? You were able to lower your exp gain in Golden. I think the last time I played P4 I would typically be ten levels below where you were supposed to be for every boss because I felt the game was way too easy otherwise, even on the hardest difficulty.

With the persona games aside from P 4 G, EXP scaled. Like if you fought a level 10 shadow at level 10 you would gain say 100 xp, if you were level 9 you would gain 140 xp, level 8 180xp. And going with that if you were level 11 you would only gain 70xp. All the way till you get 1-2 XP per kill. The amount per level scaled up a bit per level but not a lot as the gains were always counterbalanced.
In Persona 4 Golden, XP gains are flat. That level 10 mob would always give 100 xp, the XP per level was not adjusted to account for this. Just by fighting everything in front of you in like Yukiko's Castle you would end up double the level of if you did the same in P4 vanilla.
Difficulty options allowing adjustment of XP gains are probably the reason for the removal... it does not make it remotely good though.

So, if the Persona 4 remake does have the English cast recast, do you think this could be the ideal ones?
Narukami: John Patneaude
Yosuke: Clifford Chapin
Chie Satonaka: Mia Paige
Yukiko: Amber May
Tatsumi: J. Michael Tatum
Rise: Abby Trott
Teddie: Kevin Andrew Rivera
Naoto: Kayleigh Mc Kee
Margaret: Anne Yatco
Marie: Madeline Dorroh
Adachi: Stephen Fu
"Cynicism is not realistic and tough. It's unrealistic and kind of cowardly because it means you don't have to try."This might be a case of Unequal Rites, but I have to wonder if one of the characters from Persona got access to the Demon Fusion Program from a parallel universe, could they use it to build their own Persona Fusion Program?
Assuming they could even understand it, since the Schwarzwelt Investigation Team couldn't in their own universe.
I'm not looking forward to all the Kanji and Naoto discourse that will inevitably pop up again. The amount of half baked takes people have spat out based on one moment for both of my favorite goobers is both sad and eyerollingly annoying.
If you can't handle being outed by a signature, that's on you.Checkin out the new stuff from 5X, it's impressive how consistently scummy the Palace rulers are.
Bewitching EyesSo I guess to complement the fact that Closer is basically just "Ryuji but girl", the new party member in X is "Ann but boy"
Bewitching EyesI'm still a bit iffy on a bunch of stuff in X, but the Palace themes are really
fuckin
good

Marie is fine. They could have done worse with writing her. That being said, her integration into the story doesn't feel very organic and her bonus dungeon sucks ass. It's this weird combination of really easy, really annoying and extremely unrewarding.
I would expect them to do little but QOL changes, which Golden doesn't really need, and maybe some gameplaying tuning around things like social links. Oh and I expect them to remove Golden's customized difficulty settings, which would be unfortunate.
