Fun fact: There's actually a third Terminal you have access to in this run. Because the Terminal Guardian is working for the Asher's-kai, he's not allowed into Ginza, meaning that Terminal is free to enter.

GOD DAMNIT I JUST GOT DONE WITH A NEUTRAL RUN WITHOUT UPDATING

Can confirm…. You can fail to recruit Centaur…. I was terrible at the recruiting for a looong time…. Not amazing at it now but I can hold my own most the time…. He either smacks you or leaves, like every other demon. But he will reappear every battle until you’re successful.

Great challenge run! 30:30 Interestingly you can inflict almost any ailment onto even bosses and they'll have a LOT of unique dialogue that probably most people have never seen. Some of it is hilarious, you can even take money from the final bosses and they have so much unique dialog.

Always pick the top dialogue option. Go with Jonathan on the route split. Always go left when you do Tsukiji's Question maze. Choose to destroy the status quo. The only reason why getting Neutral would be hard at all is if you do any of the optional side quests which you'd rather do when your alignment is locked to begin with and is also mandatory to finish the Neutral route anyways.

Same. I didn't even pick up on that fact that each shield has a corresponding colour to identify it's weakness. I just assumed you had to try and break it once, then hit it when it's down. I even tried to look for skills/items to break the shield. Luckily, I used energy drain to get my mp/hp back, and realised I could take em down with Alnighty attacks.

Funnily enough I played this game to completion exactly once. I figured for my first run I'd answer the questions the way I would if they were posed to me. Ended up in the neutral ending. It was only later that I realized how unlikely that is.

You can grind for money without increasing the number of battles. It's called "collecting relics."

@Not_Alanius

You can also level up without battling (not kidding). It's called "fusing". This technically makes a minimum level run a no fusion run at the same time unless you mod the game or make *SURE* you gain as little exp as to not make a differance for the entire game.

@@Not_Alanius Well, if you're avoiding non-mandatory battles, you won't be able to recruit fusion fodder anyway.

This is exactly how I wanted to start my Sunday. Thanks brother!

I have been waiting for a long time for these returns :')

So glad I have inspiration to play SMT IV again. Demon negotiation ending in mass murder put me off for ages.

I both really enjoy watching you play these challenge runs, but also I’m glad you have videos like this to help me for my own play through. Honestly I got this game way back when it was released, but I was horrible at it. It took me playing persona 5 Royal fully, to understand how to play. That’s not counting all my stopped play through of Persona 3 on PSP, Persona Q1 and Q2, or such. Actually two things if you read this. 1. Could you put all your challenge runs in a Playlist? 2. Have you consider a Persona Q1 or Q2 challenge run of some kind, like no Fusions or such?

After playing the DS version of Strange Journey an unhealthy amount I realized theres a point in SMT games where Levels don't matter as much as having access to the right skills and elemental Resistances and weakness. Lots of bosses can be taken care of by having Buffs and debuffs which are told of in all SMT games but by the late mid point most demons we meet can be brought to the end with the right amount of fusion and skill manipulation

A bit of info about Ose, I actually got him to beg in my first playthrough as well. I didn't know about the difference in mandatory fight recruitment at the time, so I didn't think much of it, small world eh? I don't remember if I recruited him there or him summoned other demons due to lower levels, but I'm leaning towards the latter since he quite a high level demon for the area as far as I remember.

“69 battles for the chaos ending, nice.” I bet 100% that is the sole reason he choose that one for this video lol

11:23 I’m guessing they were reading every issue of Marville.

Maybe without fusion?

Omg, I wake up to a play through of my most nostalgic SMT game!

One thing that always made me wonder is are the people of Tokyo so badly brainwashed that they readily follow the four major archangels despite looking like demons that are ready to fall apart? they REALLY don't look trustworthy to me at all. 44:00: Naturally Alice must be fused ignoring her stats we've gotta do it for her uncles that and she's adorable despite how she is in Strange Journey Redux no idea if she's in the original.

Demon evolution is great i hate that they took it out in smt v. I got extremely lucky and one of the starting demons you recruit in the tutorial changed a skill to spirit drain which carried me the majority of the game till I got energy drain

Wahoo! New Nyarly vid!!!

id honestly love to see see a challenge run of the first soul hackers game I've started it and its pretty fun

That last "nice" at the end caught me so off guard.

Finally new SMT challenge Video

Pretty sure for the neutral ending you have to do ALL of the side quests in Tokyo to advance the story and I do mean All of them, only reason I remember this is because for some reason one area was not giving me the cut scene for completing it and I could not figure out why til I randomly entered a door in a dungeon and found the photography girl who had the final quest line.

@patrinizer346

8 ай бұрын

I was probably really close to getting it. I wanted to go the chaos route going in because it was easier to achieve than neutral. While doing that, I completed a majority of the challenge quest except for 4 relic finding jobs.

Love the random mention of Laura Bailey voicing a character but also I'm here for it

I don’t usually watch challenges videos but for some reason yours grip me by the balls 😊

Would love to see you try a run of the SNES Megami Tensei remakes!
