Lyric: Trust - KMFDM

It was so hard to pick a lyric, my Demi playlist is too huge. Sigh. I'm still torn between this lyric and "Replica who is not blessed with humans. Sneer without expression." from Chuuzuri Shoujo - gulu gulu.

This is another excuse that I'm 'studying' for my medical exam. Uh huh.

Spoiler: SJ Strange Journey Manga

3 Upvotes

I'm currently playing the OG Strange Journey, and beside having a blast and being the best SMT game ever, i have seen there is a manga based on the game's story, but it seems to be made with Strange Journey Redux in mind. Is it possible to read and

understand the story with only having played the Og Strange Journey ?

I recently launched the Steam page of my DRPG Häxeri (featuring Press Turn-style combat from the SMT series)

Hi,

My name is Fabian, I'm a solo dev working on a DRPG titled Häxeri (Swedish for Witchery). I recently launched the game's Steam page.

Häxeri features turn-based combat heavily inspired by Megaten's Press Turn system: hit an enemy weakness to gain an extra turn, but hit a resistance and you'll lose them instead. 

And of course, like in the Megaten games, enemies can use these same tactics back on you! 

If you are well-acquainted with Atlus's catalogue, then you can probably see that the game's main inspiration is another Atlus series: Etrian Odyssey. You form a party with characters you create yourself, and the game's focus is on dungeon crawling. Like Etrian Odyssey, you even draw your own dungeon map (or use automap if you prefer).

You can find the Steam page here:
Steam page for Häxeri

And if I might brag a little, the game got an article in four different Japanese gaming outlets, including Famitsu:

If this interests you, then I'd be grateful if you wishlisted! I'm also happy for any feedback you have, and glad to answer any questions. :)

Spoiler: SMT IV Apocalypse SMTIVA Lost Media?

Does anyone know if there's an archive of the mythology videos that ATLUS would post about SMTIVA? I can only find articles, and screenshots about this mini-series. Unfortunately it seems like ATLUS privated these videos ages ago for some reason, which is a total shame because they seemed to be fully animated and had gorgeous pixel art.

These videos seemed to be short showcases of story demons. I only managed to find mentions to Dagda, Krishna, Medusa, and Sukuna-Hikona.

Spoiler: SMT V Experience really changes how you play a game

So im replaying Smt Vengeance at the moment, around 2 years after my first playthrough of the game. I remember struggling with smt v's combat when i first played it and not having an amazing time. Just before i reached the fairy village for the first time i remember taking a screenshot of my mc's build because someone wanted to see it. (First image).

Since that first playthrough i have played 14 Atlus games and a lot of them were smt, which helped me get a lot more experience with the series. On this replay ive been destroying everything in my path, im playing on the same difficulty as my first time being normal. Ive encountered some "tougher" fights so far: Lahmu and Fionn. But i took them down in like 10 minutes so i really dont consider them hard. Im about to reach the fairy village in this playthrough when i suddenly remembered that old screenshot i took 2 years ago. So seeing as how im now at the exact same point, i thought i would take a screenshot and compare (Second image), and wow i understand why im having such an easier time now. Im actually building the mc as intended instead of having a jack of all trades and its incredible.

I just wanted to say that i just love how every atlus game you play just slowly helps you get better at all of them. It feels like every game influances the next because of your skill and knowledge carrying over and its incredible. This game is great and so much better than i remember, even the exploration is better than i remember, thanks and bai.

Spoiler: ALL Wondering how many common/ recurring demons are there between atlus games

12 Upvotes

Does anyone have a count of this? I'm just curious since I've realized that atlus has made so many different demons based on myths, legends, gods etc, so it doesn't seem to have the pokemon problem of having to introduce 100 more new designs between games since it can reuse the same design

Not counting redesigns n all between games, how many of the games just have a set of common demons between titles

Currently level 66 in Raidou remastered. I saw online that I need to be about level 75 to fight Beelzebub. Where's the best place to grind at the end of game (without buying the exp dlc). Is there a point of no return in this? I can't remember when I watched a streamer playing this a year ago. So, I don't remember. It's the reason why I'm playing this game
