The SMT Journey Officially Begins! 

Both my healers forgot Dia for poison, so I fused them together as punishment.

my high pixie’s zio changed after the amala network boss fight and i was pissed

Satan in his wheelchair facepalming so hard that the surface world is shaking: I regret this fucking war

As this is my introduction to a real smt game this...is interesting to say the least

Yeah... two genocidal guys and one forgetable girl

As someone who literally just started playing SMT4, I don't know how to feel about that comment lol

@@MaledictusXCII isabeau is cool

I'd like to see her play apocalypse Aka "who spilt persona on my smt" Though tbh I really enjoyed my experience cause of that vs "hello I am the chaos man, hello I am the the lawful man"

HEE HO

HEE HO

HEE HO

HEE HO!

HHHHEEEEEEEEE HAAWWWWWWW

Demifiend's whole thing is kinda he has no thing lol

@@SilvarusLupus honestly the same can be said of the majority of the SMT protags outsie certain examples like persona. They are very much blank slates with no real personality of their own. The demifiend stands out mostly due to his design and nature.

Demifiend wants to get powerful and fuck up God. How? **shrugs**

@@Blarglesnarfe of course that's not really something that's established well and is msotly just down to the path the player chooses, it's not ACTUALLY something built up in the narrative until the endings

Lmaoooo

Funny enough, his experience in "super hard jrpgs" was probably his down fall. He was probably persistent on the idea of beating matador the same way you beat every boss in a jrpgs: grind and then tank hp. But smt is different, exp means shit unless you're trying to fuse a specific demon even then there are ways to be creative with demon fusions.

Matador's not difficult, you just need demons and a Magatama that aren't weak against his force attack--he'll just keep hitting you with that if any of your squad *are* weak to it, and kill you pretty fast.

@@brandonvu5429 That was his downfall. He knew HOW to beat Matador, but he wasn’t willing to go to the extra effort to gather up the necessary demons to fuse the ones he needed. He didn’t like that the game was forcing him to play a way he didn’t want to… Which I can sympathize with on some levels (I really liked using magic in Dark Souls 2 and then Dark Souls 3 nerfed magic into uselessness, which pissed me right off), but if a developer wants you to play their game a specific way then sometimes you just gotta play it their way. Not long after SMT3 he mostly stopped playing JRPGs altogether, and switched to SCHMUP games and Rogue-likes as his preferred method of feeding his addiction to silly amounts of difficulty. Probably not helping was that a lot of his favorite JRPG series either died out or release so slowly that he got tired of waiting for them. Oh well.

@@Fastollis I did so many magic builds in ds3 I don't think any nerfs they did were that impactful. The fact that they added mana instead of a limited number of uses actually made mage builds more fun for me.

EVERY TIME.

Tbf this game isn’t very story driven, and the plot is extremely predictable. You see can see exactly where it’s going in the first hour. The focus was on the gameplay for this game

@@WardenKaz for real? Because first time i saw this stuff, i was just confused.

@@brinst_ar The game is considered an allegory of this book ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sv5IyRuEVI4.html&ab

@@artofthepossible7329 oh i've heard of it but never got to read.

The game really shouldn't have merciful. It's a remaster only addition.

Merciful did not exist in the original release.

Maybe "Asscheek" wasn't such an out-there nickname after all...

Sounds like how it should be. It isn't the real SMT3 Experience if you don't have some amount of PTSD.

merciful is only good if u wanna grind for money and exp, it rly bogs down the game alot :

Yup, that happened

REALIDAD! EL MATI!!!!!

@@infoniwceniocwdhvredidhave8126 don't spoil others lol

And she called it useless and threw it away.

She’s gonna lose her sanity once dant- I MEAN Raidou kuzunoa starts chasing her and shooting her in the ass outside battle

@@richardendresz161 yeah, Raidou from the Devi - I mean from SMT will give some fear

@@richardendresz161 Raidou from the Devil Summoner series 😱

All about the TILF for them.

I mean after Kawakami...

Utter not that horrible name in my presence

pretty sure she played p3 before this, as her p3 playthrough is the third thing i watched on her channel and this came out while i was already subbed to her

That works only if you’re curious enough. Imagine you don’t know much about this series and this is your first MegaTen game. There’s a chance people might drop it bc of that exact reason. It takes a while until you know what you’re doing

@@sergiosalazar8702 This game literally was the first megaten games for a lot of us 20 years ago though, and yeah, it is quite challenging compared to SMT1 and 2, both of which are far easier games overall, but even then SMT3s overall difficulty is really not that big as long as you just take in mind the games systems, Persona 3 is harder then this though while P4 is a bit easier, and P5s biggest issue is that it is flat out just to easy, still love the game, but oh boy I dislike the difficulty in 5. It should be said the game also came with a manual so a lot of things where not as figure it out on your own as you might think, and playing around with the mutation system if you are the type of player to do so anyways, can make some absolute broken things before you even hit Matador, as an example skills like resist force will always mutate into null force, but resist physical does not mutate into null physical, though you can get it in another way using skill change. That manual though, was not included with the remaster...Which sucks... Though, luck and agility doing pretty much doing nothing while the manual say they do, was kinda a shitty move not gonna lie..... Every point in agility and luck in this game is overall a waste...... Especially luck.... To hell with luck...

The problem is that she kept trying to get some sort of emotional connection to pick a reason which would be like becoming a leftist because your friend is a leftist rather than because you agree with those political opinions.

In-game tutorialization was rarer in those days because video games came with this thing called an instruction manual that they genuinely expected you to read.

@@vonithipathachai8449 Aaaah... that makes sense. Well, at least not having it made me feel like a veteran, even if my experiences was with Persona 4 Golden and Persona 5

@@caitsith3.0 The NPC's are basically the tutorials that you need, they literally explain all the vital mechanics of the game in the hospital, even how the moon affects demons.

@@pistachoduck9128 I was actually confused with it, but it apparently causes demons to not talk when it's lit up right? Though, how does it fill up?

@@caitsith3.0 The moon has phases, this ones advance as you walk in the world, every phase affect demons differently, maybe entering a boss fight with a certain demon and moon phase will buff the magic or attack of some demon. Honestly relying on the moon phase is something you should not do, insted you should build your party with strenghts that cover others weaknesses ( sorry if my english is bad, not a narive )

Now she has to play the other main SMT game and suffer! Nocturne and the original Strange Journey on DS are the only SMT game that gave me a hard time, when I play the SMT and Persona series, I'd always choose the hardest difficulty, Persona is very easy but SMT on the other hand, fucking torture! Aleph is still my top Messiah! Anyone who thinks Nanashi is cool is lame! He had another Messiah's help not like my boi who fought from dirt to rise up! Also, he didn't hurt YHVH's feelings lol. Devil Survivor 2 is the closest Persona type of game you can get, it's pretty heartlighted compared to the first one and.. I can't believe only a few people enjoyed Demi kids! They're great. The smt books are all great too

The bastards knew some of us would be cheap enough to go there every time instead of using the fountain.

Yes

Yes

So is Devil Survivor...and Devil summoner...and strange journey. pretty much all SMT Spin offs are good.

@@mermidion7552 Fax

@@mermidion7552 ronde lol

in DLC

Nah,She use the raidou DLC

@@aneutralguy4987 it's more like Raidou is the default rather than DLC

Actually it features Raidou Kuzunoha from the Shin Megami Tensei series.

Well, in terms of more familiar names, among them are: - Robbie Daymond as Isamu - Laura Post as Ms. Takao - Chris Tergliafera as Hijiri - Ray Chase as Gotou - Billy Kametz as Thor and Raidou - Keith Silverstein as Matador - Jamieson Price as Kagutsuchi - Sarah Williams as Jack Frost and The Blond Child - Paul Eiding as The Old Gentleman

It doesn't always works but when the demon stars to request stuff like life stones and macca just answer in this order: >accept >refuse Since refusing a demon request is also a valid strategy And also yes scouting is very random at first but with time you should get the hang of that.

And also fuse demons with bufu and resist zio you need that for later

Sometimes after a negotiation the demon may leave but when you meet the same demon there's a chance that they remember you and join your team Just accept and refuse preferably with your resource, soon you will get more negotation skills which will make it easier to recruit demons and even talk to demons which cannot say words

Whatever you do, don't negotiate after three requests, they will either bail or straight up kill you because you were a pushover. IV scout dialogue is kinda wack, IV Apocalypse though is more organized than IV. There is a kind of pattern though: A childish demon likes playful answers, an older demon loves wise answers and a brutish demon (like Oni) loves tough-as-nail answers. The more you play, and scouted, the more you understand how their pattern works.

Yeah she didnt.

@@tallflipkick I would have loved to see her do it just for her reaction to all the d jokes XD

also literally ANY other RU-vidr takes Dante. its nice to see Raidou for a change.

@@mermidion7552 Also a very fair and very valid statement, yes.

True. The soundtrack is one thing that makes it

Which is fine because SMT fans need to suffer more

The elitist SMT fans are probably the ones who are cringing, so it's good.

My entire playthrough of SMT. I kept calling them personas XD No one in my chat seemed to mind.

good >:) lol I was proud of myself for not calling them Personas at all by the second half of the playthrough!

opposite for me i tend to refer to shadows as demons more than i probably should
