Selling You On Shin Megami Tensei II (W/

[@haloshrimp]

I love Obama, he's my favourite character from Shin Megami Tensei II on the Super Famicom!

[@mohammadislam2324]

Obama has accomplished so much, I understand why my parents renamed me to Dissappointment 2

[@josephfernandez8015]

If you look closely he actually looks like Obama (the president).

To me, the main selling point of SMT II is that it's probably the best out of the Super Famicom Trilogy, particularly because of the QoL improvements (*cough* map *cough*) compared to the first game. That's just me though.

[@majinzero8371]

It's time boys let's go

[@Louis_Cyphriel]

Honestly, with 2022 being 30 anniversary for SMT, if SMTV do actually good in west we may hear about official translation or even fully blown remakes

[@enzito_sdf6978]

this is my favourite smt game. the music slaps, the story is miles ahead smt 1 and it's just right on the difficulty sense. sometimes it's a bit hard to figure out what to do but otherwise it's awesome.

[@MrSlug-ki9jl]

Other team building exercise: Pizza Party. SMT developer team building exorcise: Visit holy shrines to cleanse ourselves of demonic spirits from making our game.

[@WEXgamers11]

Smt 2 is my favorite game of all time. I am so glad that somebody is willing to talk about it.

[@BAIGAMING]

You know what's terrible is the amount of backtracking in SMT2! Though the different routes in it are very interesting! EDIT: You always gotta make sure you give back the invisibility robe you get from the goddess who was bathing for a bonus, don't be mean and steal people's clothes who are bathing 😅

[@Koujin4]

Macca Frost is back with another quality video ^^

[@Rougealienpirate]

I love both smt1 and 2; Also difficulty spikes can be avoided/cheese if you grind for gems; Not only will it help with macca/mag but also the gems give great stat boosts and there is a lot of places in the overworld that has enemies that drop them often.

[@Sigismund697]

So thanks to this video I got my shit together after my failed attempt to play smt 1 years ago and fired up that emulator on my 3ds It's actually quite fun but I also was surprised to find out there's: A translation of the gba version of 1 and Spanish translations of both 1 and 2,that really surprised me

Okay, you won. One more channel in the list of subscriptions.

[@santiagoporcell4148]

6:02 nice name

[@gabrieldevoogel6225]

The “charm” the game is missing is that it isn’t rough around the edges anymore, the idea of a modern RPG has been done before, so they went back to their bread and butter for the sequel, it causes a change in tone that you’ll appreciate greater if you play Digital devil story megami tensei or the Kyuyaku variation of the game, it not only is just a fun game but recontextualises the entirety of smt 1*2

[@TheMidnightChannel]

I love how clean the game looks. What version is this captured from? Ps love the vid

[@Macca]

Sorry for the late reply I used the SNES version in Emuhawk. Recorded it with OBS stream labs.

[@tomo8940]

If Fire Emblem 1 came out to the West after years of not being localized. I have hope SMT II will eventually come to the West officially also.

[@zeroattentiongaming820]

Not to rain on your parade but...Persona 2 never got a full western release even though we got Innocent Sin remade on PSP. They didn't bother with localizing the actual remake of Eternal Punishment. I can't imagine SMT 2 getting a localized release after it was remade twice and ported to several other platforms with nothing for western players. Would love to see it happen but this is Atlus we are talking about. The company that ported P4G to only Steam despite PS4 having a lot of the legacy fanbase from the PS2 originals and PS3 ports of 3 and 4 and a built in audience due to P4 dancing being on PS4, plus all the people who came in with 5 and Royal. The company that put Joker in Smash but has yet to put a proper Persona game on Switch. Despite having the actual sequel to P5 on Switch. If the cash cow of Persona gets that half assed treatment, what hope does mainline SMT have with the older titles?

[@Ratta212]

@@zeroattentiongaming820 The worst one is SMT 1 a game with a full english translation, locked to an unplyable version on and old version of IOS, and they dont just put it on console and charge a few dollars for it

[@amyrosechaqueta]

@@zeroattentiongaming820i think we should hope about an official translation (on a playable console or pc) of smt 1 and 2, we got official spanish translation for persona 5 royale and strikers and smt 3 nocturne so, maybe, just maaaaybe atlus doesnt hate making money anymore

[@thomasffrench3639]

Did this guy just say that the most important Final Fantasy game: Final Fantasy III is garbage?

15:18 What the heck game is this!? If I'm not mistaken, SMT2 doesn't have a side-scrolling genre shifting side quest that looks like that. :P

[@nr2676]

SMT x Persona Arena would be awesome fighting game

[@radical_rat]

Minor nitpick, but you mention alignment-locked equipment and demons as being new to SMT2, but SMT1 had the same system in place. It actually became a bit of a nuisance toward the end for my playthrough, as I had a couple Law demons as my main healing source, but wound up taking the Chaos path.

[@Macca]

Oh really? My bad, I guess I never noticed since I've always done neutral playthroughs of SMT1.

[@chicoti3]

15:43 wait, they had vr battles since smt 2? Say no more, I'll download it right this moment.

[@2tehnik]

You forgot to mention that it's the first game to have skill inheritance (at least as far as mainlines go).

[@LordWallace]

My history with SMT 2 is pretty strange as I ended up playing it before the fan favorite Nocturne and was only my second megaten game overall. That said I really enjoyed it once I got over the culture shock of 1st person view and magnetite. I got through this game well enough and still haven't finished SMT 1 so take that as you will.

[@jhon1406]

I assume smt2 was never localized because they fear the mess of releasing a game where the final boss is literally God

And you play as a Jesus and Maria, siding with Lucifer /Satan to kill God.

[@dejiko]

Can you link the name patch for SMT2?

[@ericmaclean6826]

I'm playing through smt1 right now and there are definitely alignment based equipment and you need to be the propper alignment to summon a demon, this wasn't new to 2. Or maybe it changed with the orden patch, since I'm not using it

You know, i just got into Persona with the switch port of 5R. Why not do a selling you on Persona, from the point of view of a mainline fan? Before Persona I was very much a mainline elitist, hell SMT V is probably the most time I've put into a non Pokemon or Fallout RPG. I love the overall vibe and creatures of MegaTen but the social sim elements where a put off. But now with 5R on Switch I just can't stop playing, I was so wrong to write off this subseries.

Who was the guy that called FF3 garbage? That game runs laps around this game in literally every aspect except for the conceptual idea for a plot.
