Nah this game aint hard if yer know how to play chess. its the same as chess. except for got devil speed ( Move 7 spaces) and Evil and chaos wave which allow u to attack further. think ur move carefully then move plan carefully
peeps, if you dont like the classic game style go for gothic or FF, enough games out there go entire different directions. thats like asking bands to play in your favourite style.
The music kinda drove me crazy trying to figure out the lyrics. i constantly reimagined them over and over in my head while playing the game. "Lets get to town, you gotta be kidding, i fight in the name of-, its not your fight. kinda what it sounded like to me. anyone have a clue what is actually said???
@xXRiekoRuzakiXx Well, alot of the classic engines don't need to die out. They should not die out.I personally, think many of the current advances are over-rated. A few revolutionary games are fun, but if you only want to deal with current technology, you end up with alot of crap.
Only big complaint is that despite letting you choose the MC's stats, you really don't have a choice since if you don't put virtually everything into magic you're just gonna get slaughtered by everything.
@TheLunarLegend Tell me about it. I decided to make MC a physical sort of person an put everything on strenght. I still managed to kill Beelzebub SOMEHOW, but gave up in the next fight.
This preview vid reminded me of something. Towards the end of day three (after you beat one of the Bel's I think?) The last sentence before it blanked out was in Japanese. I'm guessing that wasn't suppose to happen right? XD
I tried playing this and I just couldn't get into it... well I'm not really into strategy games altogether. (I accidentally fell asleep during the second battle!)
this game is friggin hard man. i JUST beat the Wendigo boss a couple of hours ago and i had to grind to level 10-11 til i could be him. seriously, dont take this game for granted or it will chew you up and shit you out
Please you ain't seen nothing yet! XD Wait till the fire guy! The game then starts thinking it'll be funny to throw in a twist half-way through a fight to make it twice as difficult... and then do it again! Anyway the fire guy will have you lying in a corner in the fetal position for three days before you can pick up the game again and start grinding... Only to find out you still can't beat him! Perseverance is the key! The game becomes a lot easier on New Game plus mode.
@axel5735 You man Bleial? I'm going up against him. That's why I'm grinding to get magic, vitality and agility. ( Hero : Level 46 now and full attack )
@Zarf387 Yup. I went with extremely high mag build with some vit and took him out pretty easily with my mc because he had ice dance and demons with ice skills.
I've never really had a chance to get into the SMT series(other than the two Persona games), but having just gotten ahold of this game and started, I'm loving it so far.
I love that it feels like you're really interacting with the characters in it, and that your decisions actually matter. Too many games nowadays just hold your hand... >.>
@Lance1232, looking at the level of the MC (he knows a high level move and has ALOT of hp) they probably modified/put a code in the game to raise the level up, possibly so that its easier to play to the parts they want to showcase. There's no way you can even know the move the MC knows that early unless you use a code or do new game+
this is the place we go when we have a hard time with Beldr, free battle at Shiba Park. i'm stuck with beldr and i keep on training here until my chars were like lvl 30.
i got loki yama pazuz kresnik and kodlak But pazuzu is the wrost one and the slowest i highly recommend u to get yama krenik or kudlak loki is not bad
The only thing that makes me sad with many rpgs such as dragon quest series and this game is that you can't see your sprite or yourself attacking, the only reason the pokemon battles have done so well is because they show your sprites attacking. I hardly believe the battles would be intresting when you have just a name when you attack
dude i dunno i wanna watch the ending but i dun wanna spoil it on me the games soooo nice i wanna play it bits and pieces but i suck at it i mean yes i made a nice strategy but only if the demons come at me not if they just go spawn or ar targetting someone whom im supposed to rescue
Since this is an atlus game, if you really wanna get stronger, I would suggest grinding as much as you can tolerate if you really wanna become powerful
is this game like disgaea in the sense that after u beat it u keep all of your stats and monsters?cuz i chose the yuzu ending and everyone says t sux.
This game is really good, but it feels kind of hard to be strategic at times. In quite a few battles I have fought, the middle enemy will guard, so the spell I used on that the enemy will hit an other enemy. It can be a bit annoying, but I deal with it.
The music on the battle field reminds me of Jeff Beck. Also, this game looks fucking awesome! I'm considering getting it since I have all the other SMT games besides Persona 1 and 2 on the PS1.
Well, I got very lucky. I bought Nocturne and Digitial Devil Saga 1 and 2 for $160 at Christmas time, and they were all new on Amazon. I'd recommend going to Gamestop for Digital Devil Saga 1 because it is only $25. I think Digital Devil Saga 2 is a bit rarer, so look on Amazon I guess. That is where I buy a lot of games I can't find. Good luck to you! And Devil Summoner 1 is only $15 used. Gamestop used to have it new for $10, but I guess it went up in demand.
Oh alright then thanks lol You sr. are very knowledgeable yeah i check both ebay and Gamestop and Gamestop is the cheapest when it comes to Digital devil saga
Also, if you are looking to get Persona 1 and 2, the first Persona is coming out to the PSP as a re-release and 2 should follow. Hopefully Eternal Punishment and Innocent Sin are both released, which are the two versions of Persona 2, one of which was never released here. Plus, the original copies of the Persona games are incredibly steep anyhow and I heard Persona 1 had a lot of problems.
Almighty and death aren't the same. Also how is that annoying? If you can't beat a demon without having to instant kill a demon unless that is it weakness you're doing it wrong.
i know almighty is different but i don't use death all that often but when i do whatever it is has repel. do you know how annoying it is to wipe because of your own bloody skill. and it ALWAYS ALWAYS KILLS CIELO EVEN IF HE HAS PROTECTION
Hmm...attack, defend, or megidolaon.
What to choose...
