Boss Battle - Devil Summoner

Music by: Tsukasa Masuko

[@idkmf7667]

The "all of my fucking demons are not obeying" theme

[@Jordan3DS]

That's why you just go "screw using demons" and let Rei's OP magic wreck every boss by herself.

[@ronterzi2540]

You’re supposed to build bonds with your demons by doing things like gifting certain demons with items. Then, not only will they obey your every move, but they’ll also give you more control over their move sets.

[@acertainbajiquanloli]

Man this game's main character is lowkey one of the coolest in the franchise. Dude got that Arsene Lupin/Jojo character energy while still having a simple design. He's incredibly smug in pretty much every art made of him. He was sent to the deepest parts of hell and returned.

[@garryrptr]

Kuzunoha family invented SWAG

[@Jordan3DS]

Agreed, the art and designs of Devil Summoner are phenomenal!

[@daddyinthestreetsenpaiinth9250]

@@garryrptr Funny enough he's not even a Kuzunoha, the actual guy (Kyouji) died while on the case and the MC inherit the body after he too was killed by the antagonist, Sid. The smugness came from our MC, not the Kuzunoha guy. Kyouji is a no nonsense prick.

It's a shame to see how neglected the original Devil Summoner is

[@nr2676]

Even if is this game is best selling title in subseries. Along with Revelations Persona, this game was best selling Megaten title in Japan until ... Persona 5.

[@marcellosilva9286]

It's a shame to see how neglected SMT in general is, it's been completely eclipsed by Persona nowadays, decades of history lost.

[@ShatteredPedestal7]

@@marcellosilva9286 I’d say those dancing games failing was a wake up call for Atlus, but that’s wishful thinking.

for some reason, in some parts i rmember some other battle themes 0:54 For some reason, Old enemy (akira route, SMT IF) came to my mind 1:00 And in this part i remember SMT 2 battle theme for some reason

[@Podzhagitel]

0:28 in the SMT 2 battle theme is what you're recalling

[@professionalkek8937]

And at around 1:36 it sounds like a part of a Michael Jackson song. Forgot the name though... but it's a really well-known part or melody

[@iennefaLsh]

1:00 Definitely the slow descent. My favorite part of SMT2's battle theme. Lots of nods to SMT1's battle theme here, you could probably name them. The Old Enemy parts aren't at 0:54, but I hear it as well.

[@DixieChix]

1:18 sounds pretty similar to SMT 2's boss theme as well, at least to me Here's the part I'm talking about if anyone's curious: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qabMo3yLh7x-eNE

[@JackFrostAegirine]

Reminder that Hirohiko Araki totally 300% ripped-of Sid Davis' design wholesale when he made Enrico Pucci from Part 6 of JoJo. Sid's final form is how Pucci would've looked if Araki's art hadn't changed.

[@Gio-kg4gb]

nice

[@TheArkhamjester]

I thought that too, until I checked dates. Part 6 didn't start until January 1 2000. Devil Summoner came out in december of 1995. So probably not. Sometimes designs just align that way.

This game was such a fucking vibe. Wish it would get a translation. When I played the PSP version, I had to use the Compendium exclusively for fusion stock.

[@Richter451]

Can't for the day that this gets translated or rereleased

[@youcarrytakeabath727]

I've been looking for updates every few months on the translation. This is probably the most I've ever wanted to play a videogame, especially after finishing soul hackers.

[@nr2676]

@Mariesun Saturn is reason, and spaghetti code. Even Atlus had big problems with port this game on PSP, which ended as a huge downgrade from Saturn version (music was ruinded, and game is even slower). This game just need remake from scratch.

[@Ratta212]

Hoping one day we get a translation of this game one way or another

[@Darkchao_berserko22]

A fan translation is being worked on currently.
