Can I consider myself a TRUE Shin Megami Tensei if I never beated Nocturne on Hard Mode or never defetead Demi Fiend in Digital Devil Saga 1?

So after you kill Merkabah the plan is that everyone from Mikado move to Tokyo.... why?
It's completely retarded. Why doesnt everyone move to Mikado instead? Mikado has lush green plains, mountains, lakes, forests and pristine architecture and agriculture and cattle. Not to mention NO demons outside of Naraku and Kiccigiorgi Forest (even in the endgame the citizens are only just discovering demons exist). On the other hand Tokyo is a rotting city with destroyed buildings, several unlivable poisoned areas, no reliable source of food and water besides scavenging, pollution, and of course fucking demons everywhere. Even if Masakado can fix Tokyo to an extent it's just a no brainer that Mikado is a better place to live in once the Lawfags running it are dead.
It's stupid, this game is stupid. Seriously I was 'mirin the gorgeous backgrounds and architecture of Mikado so hard before the ending, such a shame it literally gets all rekt for stinky Tokyo.
Besides normal is the intended difficulty so thats enough for SMT cred points.
Andrew Gomez
What game have you played?
Christian Brooks
Nocturne on hard mode is just tedious and unfun and most haven't bothered with the rng Demifiend boss, whatever. It's a good genderbend for what it is (and the two other demons got the same treatment.). They gave her actual breast support for one.
Nolan Baker
Muh Goddess.
Adrian Young
What do you want to see both gameplay wise and story wise in SMT V?
Leo Rodriguez
Nocturne style fusion autism An ending that actually solves some of those Great Will-related problems without making a black hole
Luke Thomas
Heroine back and make her have combo magic with the protag. I want something more in the feel of Megami Tensei 2.
Jace Ross

For fuck sake lads, keep it together.
Jeremiah Nelson
Gameplay >everything from SMT4A including smirks >maybe some new damage types like nuclear or weapon types >heroine >open world or somehow close to that Story >Setting like Tokyo Millennium would be good, but judging from trailer it probably be another fucked up Tokyo >designs like in old SMT >enemy characters like Krishna >something something law vs chaos vs neutral

Sacrificial fusion and controllable partners if they are kept

Noah Garcia
Man that Maria clip from DSJ has me hype.
I wonder where does she fit in the hierarchy of Mothers of the schwarzwelt.
Also wonder if Demiurge will remain the ultimate boss, also if they will reveal from who the voice is after you defeat Demiurge.
Hunter Phillips
Gaston's voice is nothing special though. And SheshaFlynn is just modified Flynn who sounds a bit gayer.
Camden Turner
is there any significant QoL change from vs the Soulless Army to vs King Abaddon?
Nathaniel Reed
King Abbadon has: >Better demon roster, like much much better. >Now your demons drain your mag to use skills, making filling mag by exploiting weakness much more important. >No longer random encounters in towns. >Raidou runs faster. >Now you negotiate with demons, demons also helps you negotiated if they have certain skills- >Much more side game content.
SA has a better story but KA has better characters like the Tsukigatas siblings.
Zachary Reed
now I really need to push myself to finish the first game, thanks for the info user google was being a bitch about it
Xavier Bell
>adding negotiations to an action rpg >good
Brody Bailey
Honestly tube cramming was a little lame plus i like getting materials from hte demons.
Oh yeah forgot that the whole bullet stuff is gone, your gun just stun enemies since demons now inbue your gun or sword with elemental properties.
Blake Peterson
Negotiations are way better than the tube shit.
Liam Edwards

Brody Martin
>SMT will never have those cancerous elements Feels good, man.
Jeremiah Adams
Better list.
Zachary Anderson
Gameplay wise I think demons should also have affinities with certain other demons. For example if you have Cu Chulainn and Scathach in your party they should get combo moves or a boost in stats. Likewise with negotiation if a demon in your party like Thor sees an enemy Loki or Odin then there should be some unique dialogue between them.
For story I just want an intro like SMT I
Julian Parker
Aleph and Flynn have the best aesthetics
Adrian Reed

Jacob Williams
Somebody has the pic from Apoc while fighting Adramelech "your face twists into a smile"?
Aaron Gonzalez
Has anyone ever drawn him with his hood up? It reminds me of Kikuri-Hime kinda.

Why are the first three trying to be such fucking show offs with their COMPs?

William Bell
Most SMT games don't get fun until you unlock the cooler fusion options.
Jacob Hall
Which is another reason to go Law and just destroy the fucking city. It's an utter shithole filled with demons and batshit insane fucked up humans. I just can't imagine the people of Mikado mixing, and living with the people of Tokyo. They are exteremely different, I bet after a while they would try to kill eachother.
Owen Watson
Is this the Neutral route? You're going to remove the dome, aka most of Mikado.
Jacob Perry
Personafag here, bought SMT IV a few days ago. 30 hours in now, never would I have thought that these games get so fun. It was a slight drag to get through the initial 10-15 hours, crippling rng-driver difficulty aside, nothing happened story wise, but now that the game picked up? It's awesome.
I hope I'm doing everything right, I want to finish this game the way I intended and play Apocalypse too when I find it in a store.
You guys were right all long.
Aaron Bennett
You are a big oni
Wyatt King
Glad you're enjoying yourself. It's a pretty fun series.

>apoc hope you don't care too much about story that aside, yeah, IV picks up a lot after early game hell, smirk+press turn is still messy as hell all the way through, though
Kevin Sullivan
>you can explore most of the overworld freely >you craft swords and demons >you need items to heal and survive
Maybe it was cancer all along.
Noah Adams
After IV and IVA what game will you try out next?
The story is not bad, the problem lies with how the cast reacts to it, and the narrative is fucking shit.
Hunter Foster
>Man that Maria clip Wait what? More new info was shown?
>this city is a shithole because we killed a ton of their people and forced them to seal themselves underground to avoid annihilation, resulting in a demon-infested dystopia where power fell into the hands of demons and autocrats >they show desire and potential for peaceful existence and the actions of the samurai suggest it could be made a reality in a few years' time >let's ignore the moral objections of those able to work towards peace and wage a genocidal war on them lawfags, everyone
Ian Gomez
>the story is not bad >the narrative is fucking shit uhh
Matthew Reyes
DDS or Nocturne, I don't care much about negotiating with demons, as it's frustrating enough so might as well go with DDS.
TBQH, I'll prolly just play all of them at some point, I really like these games.
Brandon Nelson
What I mean to say is how, despite the game presenting you with to options >kill your friends >be a anime protag it REALLY shoves your throat the later, the whole game. It does not make any sense for Nanashi to be an edgelord. I dont know what to call it but the story itself is solid just the final choice is fucking shit I guess.
Camden Young
It works well in Breath of the Wild but Atlus will never make an AAA game.
Kevin Parker
My nip is bad but I think it's >Human...? you're human... then what am I...? >Human...? No, that's wrong... O-Oh! >That's right... Remember... I remembered...
Robert Reed
Having watched over 100 animes, I can confirm this is... more or less, what she says.
Caleb Ward
>i will go neutral so that i can achieve false """"peace"""" for a decade
even if the unclean ones "show" their desire for peace as long as YHVH doesnt approve it everything will start over again. what you are doing is literally just looking away from the reality that either law or chaos MUST win. go law or chaos i dont care but going neutral is jus t fucking retarded.
Josiah Lee
He is proto-Gale.
Cameron Hall
Whats the consensus of Devil Survivor 2?
Xavier White
Good game overall. I liked DeSu1 better personally, but DeSu2 is good.
Don't worry about the consensus, just play it.
Jace Jones
>law or chaos must win all you have to do is push their shit in every time they show up it happens to be a valid tactic in every game
Connor Rogers
Lighter and goofier than the first with a polarizing cast of characters but the core gameplay is intact and better than ever.
Brayden Harris
Not really, just have your demons on buff/healing/ailments and have Nanashi and Gaston do the work.
Shesha is easy, just boring.
Julian Williams
No, just punch him with your magic sword. The first fight is pretty scripted, so it shouldn't be a problem no matter what you have.
