So I just finished Shin Megami Tensei IV for the 3DS and I've got to say, it certaintly is one great game.

It was difficult to get into at first but the more I played it the more I loved it. Who else loves this game/series? Cause I'm so happy I decided to get into the franchise. It also has tons of replay value and I LOVE that.

 

ALSO just got SMT Devil Survivor Overlocked (3DS) that I will start playing in the new future. VERY excited :)

You should play SMT Nocturne and Digital Devil Saga, the two best games in the SMT franchise. Persona 3 might be as well, but Persona 4 is the only extremely story heavy game in the SMT series of games and spinoffs that I've played. Nocturne and Digital Devil Saga have the amount of storyline SMT4 has, where there's more of a focus on the dungeons, exploration, and combat.

SMT Nocturne doesn't allow you to choose the skills you transfer though, it forces you to cancel and retry to fuse in order to get the skills you want. Digital Devil Saga you have to master classes but you can pick and choose from a large skillset. You always have access to your entire skill list outside of combat.



Best game I have played on the 3DS. Do wish it was on something else besides the 3DS tho, that game screams big screen to me.


Atlus has been my favorite developer for a good while now since hte PS2 days.  Cannot WAIT for Persona 5!



Loved SMT IV!!! Glad you enjoyed it. This was my first SMT game. For my next playthrough I want to get the neutral ending.

I am currently watching a lets play of Nocturne. Sadly I have no way to play it myself.

(I also just got SMT Devil Survivor Overlocked btw which I will start playing soon)

I also might get Persona 5 if I ever get a PS4. I'll probably watch some lets plays on 3 or 4 though.

Here's to hoping Shin Megami Tensei V is on Nintendo's next home console! :D

In the meantime, I'll be impatiently waiting for SMT X FE D:

Persona 5 looks pretty good too.

Atlus is also one of my new favorite developers now, I love them.

Well, my opinion of most Youtube lets plays is that there are too many people who just suck at video games.  So you should wait until I do some videos of both games and watch me.

Playing it right now, though I'm still early in. Found the first teleport. Gotta admit I haven't abused the save system like that in a long time, the game is hard! I never expected such a large amount of excellent voice acting. Great game, great music and really interesting story so far.

The Megami Tensei seems like the most prolific series on the 3DS.



Played it a bit and let my bro play it for the rest, weakest SMT we've played.
