>>148160583
I don't know too much about the endings, but it seems like you finally kill off YHVH and Lucifer for good, create a new universe where such a conflict doesn't exist and even BTFO The White's mission while we're at it. Which sounds fine by me.

The problem is that the lore and universe of SMT IV was already pretty complete and fleshed out to begin with. We already knew how it all came to be, it's current situation, we had a bunch of what if scenarios, and the different endings.

Not him, but I'm enjoying it so far, it felt clunky at first but after getting used to it it's pretty fun. Only real problem I have so far is it's a little easy, I wish you could access hard mode from the start.

It also feels a little less clunky after discovering that guarding after 2 strikes, then continuing doesn't leave you with that long window of vulnerability after finishing a combo.

I hear 2 has better combat anyway.

Not unless it's been a while since you last played or you absolutely have nothing better to do. I remember marathoning DDS2 and Persona 3 before playing Nocturne for the first time and I press-turned myself into an addict.

Taking breaks builds up anticipation... and hell, if you already how neutral ends, you don't have a huge reason to do so.

Well it's been a good while since I last played it, but if I recall the neutral path requires you to do a ton of sidequest stuff so maybe spending that much time just to see another ending is a bit much. Anywhere I can read a decent story synopsis of the neutral path to refresh my memory on what happens?

I have a slim PS2 and I have it running through an XRGB Mini to an HD monitor. Absolute fucking bliss.

On a similar note, I've been selling a fuck ton of my older games online and I noticed relatively rare games have been skyrocketing in price. Oddly enough, Megaten games have dropped in price due to reprints (in the US anyway) or simply risen with inflation (PS1 Persona games come to mind, Jack Bros is still pretty high, Fixed version of PS! SMTII, etc, are the exception not the rule). I guess now's the time to buy the last of the fancy console hardware and pick up the physical games at a decent price while I still can.

Gotta ask.

Is the atmosphere depressing in SMTIVF when you talk to NPC's?

Like are some of them hopeless or want to die?

I enjoyed talking to them when i was locked into Law/Chaos at the end of the game.

You know

Jim Mendez

At the end of Day Six on Devil Survivor Overclocked, I know that there's apparently a "route" for each character. Do I have to do anything specific to unlock them and what is the best route for a first playthrough? Yuzu's is the easiest I heard but apparently shit story-wise.

>>148197453
shut up puta

>>148197564
You just have to have interacted with characters tied to quests enough. Yuzu's is always there by default but yeah it was originally the bad ending. They amended it in Overclocked to redeem yourself on the 8th day though.

On the night of the 6th day you'll be able to choose who to meet up with characters whose requirements you've met.

>>148198178

>options are Gin, Naoya, Amane and Yuzu

Yuzu is the punk bitch option so fuck that, but angels/God (at risk of sounding like a fedora) sound like a bunch of stuck-up pricks. I'm kinda torn between Naoya and Gin. Gin is the realest nigga and I like the idea of going back to normal, but it seems like just delaying the final decision until another ordeal happens. Naoya's sounds like a power-hungry dickhead option that leaves the world in a worse-off place for everyone but demon tamers.

Damn, I didn't expect to actually care about this game's storyline that much.

>>148198919
It's just joke armor. If you're gonna shit on the game or shitpost about flaws. Do it fucking right and make fun of the writing and shit roleplaying mechanics.

>>148198721
I'd go with Gin if you want to save the better endings for later, Naoya if you want the challenge.

Naoya's route is the hardest because it has a second final boss after what is normally the final boss. Gin is one of the neutral routes that all end before Naoya's.

But after you beat the game you can choose to keep your compendium and one or two of your endgame demons, so repeat playthroughs get easier each time. Pretty much a breeze to blow through in just a few hours, though I did Naoya first so I don't know how easy his route is after doing others.

>>148199092

>chose Naoya
>Yuzu and Midori leave my ass
>Naoya continues to be a prick

Is there some point where I can turn around and "GOTCHA" Naoya or is he going to be a know-it-all piece of shit who controls me this entire route?

>>148199635
You'll learn what's up with him pretty soon. You get the rundown on everything about him in his route and Amane's, each with its own spin.
He's not a bad guy though, he genuinely cares about you, he's just a smug cunt.

Yuzu and Midori will come back so long as you don't kill anyone when given the choice to in dialogue.
Killing them gets you the Kaido version of the ending.

I misremembered. You have to re-fight all the Bels for Naoya's. And I think it's solo, if I remember right? Not sure though. It's been awhile since I've played.

>>148201260
I didn't really care for it either, but the SMT inspiration is really clear.

>>148201260
I enjoyed it, but it's definitely inferior to its inspirations. You'll find much more clever humor in Earthbound and much more interesting gameplay and story in SMT.

That said, Undertale's strength is having likeable characters which I think it does well. And Matpat giving the pope a copy of Undertale makes me want to kick his teeth in.

It's all good, man. Don't be so hard on yourself. I would probably be in a similar boat, but I simply couldn't move home after school cause no jobs in the middle of nowhere. I had to work a terrible retail job to afford to share a bedroom in a trash-house with 8 dudes, but I worked my way up to manager and eventually left and got into IT. Now I have my own place and I'm not like, loaded by any means, but I can afford to eat and buy Megaten games when I want to. It's a tough market out there but it's doable for anyone with a good work ethic.

Really? Nocturne isn't that hard if you know what you're doing. I found DDS way more harder than Nocturne and SJ.

Would a game where all the demon designs are done by artists from around the world to reflect the varied cultures that spawned them work?

>>148228287
If they were somehow redrawn in the same style maybe, but that would never happen. There's already an issue with designs clashing against each other within Kaneko's works, and then with IV there was a huge backlash to guest designs that would've been fine had they not been for a SMT game. There's no way it could work out if they weren't all in the same basic art style.

The hard mode of DDS2 is probably the most fun I had with any megaten to date. I'd have to replay DDS1 to see how it is, but that's gonna take a while to happen.

>>148220747
Don't worry, the enemies of that dungeon are probably the worse ones of the whole game, and it is what I'd consider to be the weakest part of the game since the enemies are damage sponges that can kill you in one turn if you roll bad RNG. For this part abuse of Hama and Mudo, and try to bring Naoto with you at all times.

Endure it and the story is actually gonna begin to get interesting; also the game is gonna get pretty good later on. Can't tell you when though :^)

Do Megaten fans who prefer other games to Persona feel abandoned by Atlus? Or at least did before they announced Apocalypse? I mean, since the release of 3DS the only brand new games were SMT4 + 4A and P4 got more spin offs than that.

Is the PSX version of Innocent Sin harder than the PSP version?

I'm playing the PSP version and even on "hard" mode most enemies just do 1 damage, this is so boring that I'm forcing myself to play it.

Playing DeSu:O for the first time. Finished the Yuzu route for my first playthrough but Yuzu's 8th Day is really kicking my party's ass. Is the game supposed to be balanced for the 8th Days to only be done on a NG+ or do I just need to grind more?

I'm torn between an AV Famicom and a Sharp Twin Famicom. The first is compact but a little ugly. The second is cool but the Disk System is of little use to me. Both are great for modding. Weird that I'm thinking about it this much because I'd probably only play a handful of games on it. Same goes for a PC-98 laptop, PC Engine Duo, Sega CDX, Virtual Boy, etc. But all those weird Megami Tensei variants to play...

Don't you just use the MC to do the special attack with that one item I can't remember the name of? Unless they changed it in Overclock anyway.

>>148311646
Have a Demon with the racial skill double up or whatever it's called. The one that allows you to attack twice. Then another that can heal. Proceed to slap his shit twice as fast. I believe the damage is based on what level you are rather than your Str.

>>148302306
I've heard that only hardcore lawfags can pronounce or even type Y#%H. I wonder if it's true.

>>148313996
Then switch up your strategy a little and try to keep the other demons away from Beldr while you attack him solely with the MC.

I'm pretty sure you only have to kill Beldr in that mission, so I'd give my companions that one skill that gives them more walking distance and send them to distract the other enemies and block the pathways until he's dead.
Find out what weaknesses the subordinates have and exploit them with your buddies.

Also the MC is literally the only one that can hurt him, so having strong demons with him doesn't necessarily help you. Get some healing ones or defensive ones to go with the MC.

I only know about the regular DS version so these tips might not help, but from what I remember your main goal is surviving rather than killing everything.
This might be typed out confusingly, I'm sorry about that.

I finished playing MGS3 recently (after playing the two previous games) and now I'm burned out. I have no motivation to finish the games I have started. I'll try to finish DDS1 as soon as I get a TV but I feel like I'll ruin it for me, I don't know how to explain so sorry if it's a bit vague. I already started a long time ago and I stopped soon after Gale became playable.
Can I talk about my progress as I continue the game? I think I'm not motivated because I'm a bit lonely and I barely know anyone outside of /smtg/ who cares about megaten. Maybe it'll motivate me a bit more.

Well shit. That bear looks fucking creepy, too.

Pokemon's not that edgy. It's just old merch.

>>148326510
Well that's fucking retarded. Shoulda used a corpse instead.

>>148326510
The bear looks a bit more like a red panda, doesn't it? Those look super cute irl.

It just wants friends. It's a cutie. Pokemon doesn't need to be edgy.

Wait, Strange Journey is bad? What happened to /smtg/?

>>148327152
Ah yes, the you acknowledge a game's flaws so you must think it's bad meme.

>>148326510
>Pokemon's not that edgy
you should read some pokedex entries.

Cubone is literally that.

>>148327152
They're not wrong.

>>148327257
Calling a game more boring than SMTI and II is saying that it's pretty horrible.

>>148327340
SMT I is not boring. II has all that backtracking and fetch quests but it's also not that boring.

>>148327427
They are, hence why the post said ''which is saying something''.

The entire concept behind the name is that God's true name is not pronounceable. Y-H-V-H is just a corruption with a long, complicated history. 'Jehova' and 'Yehova' are forced Christian pronunciations of the Tetragrammaton. ATLUS isn't censoring anything, they're actually conveying it in a pretty rad way. At least learn about the Tetragrammaton if you're going to complain about it's literally impossible, unknown pronunciation.

That's pretty cool

No number

That's literally the only problem with SJ

SMT x Pokemon Go

SMT x Devil May Cry

>>148342297

You mean DMC5 featuring Demi-Fiend from Shin Megami Tensei series.

>>148342558
You mean featuring Jack Frost from Persona

>>148344560
You mean featuring Teach Frost Narukami from the Shin Sekaiju no Megami Persona no Meikyuu Tensei: Devil Survivor OVERCLOCKED Portable

Is it me or is DDS really easy? I only got one game over so far and I'm in Manipura for the second time. I checked a walkthrough to see if I didn't miss anything and it keeps saying to do things I didn't do or the game is almost impossible (like having agi after Heat leave the party).

just wait for the penis boss

>>148349562
Mara is a regular boss or a bonus boss in this game?

>>148327340
The other two posts he quoted don't imply that SJ is a bad game at all.

>SMT x Katamari
Yes.

Just imagine if it actually did turn out to be the DmC of SMT. IVA is at least mechanically sound barring the partner system.
