Fun Fact: Thorman is actually a Japanese pun that gets lost in translation. In the original Japanese release it would be pronounced closer to "Toru" rather than "Thor", which is both how you'd pronounce "Thor" but also how you'd start "Tru", making it both "Thorman" and "Truman", president of the US starting in 1945.
Wow. I'd love it if there was a compiled list of all these puns that were lost in translation for each game

SMT1 was a surprisingly fun experience for someone who doesn't usually like old school RPGs. The story is extremely engaging and the art is beautiful. It does get frustrating at points due to the high encounters and difficulty spikes. Of course the biggest downside is that a guide is a nessesity for people who want to make constant progression. Interesting fact about SMT...if the main character is canonically a girl named Tamaki who ends up transferring to the highschool in P1 after ...if's events and is a college student by P2. She doesn't have any major roles but it's nice that she not only returns but maintains her knowledge of her game.

I'm really curious as to what Atlus' relationship is to religion. They seem to use lots of figures from the Judeo-christian mythos whether it be Satan or Yahweh, I think it's super interesting but then again I'm new to the whole smt franchise
@blumiu24264 жыл бұрын
Do you mean Atlus or the team working on SMT? Japan isn't religious, perhaps superstitious if anything because of tradition. Given the original team is an older generation, they likely still might have traditional views, spiritual perhaps, but if any have occult leanings because of spiritualism, it's best to have them say themselves than guess. A product may either reflect personal views or the message may be the opposite, a cautionary tale, yet it's up to the writer to get those sentiments across. It's actually based on Luciferianism, which is an occult amalgamation of occultism, Judeo-Christian and Satanic elements. That is where the dualistic nature/personas/posession in Persona comes from and the summoning, Good being Law (not actually good), Evil being Chaos and Neutral the inbetween/indecisive. Law is based on the occult version of Lucifer, not God, who represents order and freedom from God. God is the antagonist of Lucifer (I understand this was not Kaneko's intention yet to many that don't pay look deeper, God is bad and most reviews or info paint it that way), thus why you see Lucifer attempt to ally himself with the protagonist in different games or at least plays an important role. Satan is the occult version of the devil, representing carnality and materialism. However, if you've played SMT games, the Chaos route actually has more to it and benefits compare to the lawful path. Neutral represents the balance in Luciferianism, neither good nor evil, utilizing both. It's the same concept as Yin-Yang and you see in most Japanese games where balance is mentioned. It goes all the way back to dualism, the number 11, black/white and other symbolism found in the "mystery schools". It's why this path mainly ends up being the canon path. That's my understanding of research first done into the occult and then seeing all the signs and philosophy/influences of the game. My personal opinion on the use of this is entirely different, yet that's Shin Megami Tensei and what the creators put forth. PS- I will add that SMT IV Apocalypse went as far as making YWH a pure antagonist, that in itself directly aligning with what I was talking about or reflecting sentiments of creators. Kaneko seems to have tried to make his stance clear, but when all that is seen as you can fight God and kill him, that's what happens.

Basically, it's part of a larger cultural thing in Japan. They see Judeo-Christian symbolism the way we might look at pre-Christian polytheism or even Buddhism and Hinduism: foreign and exotic, cool, but also spooky and strange. A lot of games use Judeo-Christian symbolism as exotic set dressing to make everything feel cooler to a Japanese audience. Many of them, MegaTen included, often mash it up with paganism and Eastern religions; for example,you often meet pagan gods like Dagda, or Buddhist figures like the Four Heavenly Kings, in addition to angels and demons.
