Persona 3 is actually pretty fake-hard. Of course, I still beat it. Just because I'm perceptive enough to notice when games are poorly designed doesn't mean I'm not good at the genre. P4 isn't as fake-hard because it at least lets you not have to rely entirely on AI patterns in a tight situation. There's nothing in either of those games that require skill at a high level. The base mechanics are actually very simple. It's all about how much time you feel like spending on grinding (including slink grinding) and/or playing around with persona fusion.
Bull feathers.

Go play P3P, and beat Margaret with just your main character. Then come back and tell me how you did that without strategizing.
Why should I play P3P when it is the original P3 I am complaining about?

Additionally, even if some elements of a game is fake-hard, that doesn't mean every single aspect of that game is.
