Shin Megami Tensei 5 - SWITCH

It holds up visually too, Nocturne has a great art style.

Mhm, thinking on it, I too have never completed a true SMT game. Though I own a bunch. Like Devil Summoner, Raidou Kuzonoha 1+2, Nocturne and DDS.

There are so many games in this vast world, and never enough time.

DDS is REALLY good and doesnt play entirely like a traditional SMT. Its really good though, play it.

I fucking love DDS and Raidou 2 if you don't want to play a mainline game.

DDS doesn't have the gameplay that makes other SMT games fun. Battles are kind of a slog, you level too slowly, while the encounter rate is through the roof and the dungeon design forces lots of backtracking upon you through trap doors. Which is kind of normal for SMT, but annoying when the battles are boring. In fact, I kind of fucking hated DDS.

DDS was the first Megaten related game I played through, I especially loved part 2. The amazing music and Hindu themes really did it for me, though I agree some of the dungeons and the high encounter rate got to be a slog towards the end of the games.

Speaking of spinoffs, I hope y'all be playing the Strange Journey Metroidvania. This shit is super dope, just started it with the English patch.

Thank fuck Nintendo aren't bitches about region locking anymore, so I don't have to care about Atlus' EU shenigans.
