Ah yes SMT 2 the only game where you play as the Messiah who is actually a aged up child and who's girlfriend is actually his mother and who's best friend is literally satan and who has to join a dance battle to actually progress in the game Damn this game needs a remake its so good
@@zerohunter2966 Spoilers (duh) "messiah who is actually an aged up child" - Aleph is an artificial human created by the center to essentially be a messiah. He was created in an artificial womb and he aged rapidly in it(about 10 years in 24 hours iirc). So in game he was like 5 years old mentally. "girlfriend who is actually his mother" - Hiroko, the main heroine, is actually the mother of Aleph according to Mekata (the scientist who made Aleph and Hiroko's father) "who's best friend is satan" - Zayin, one of Aleph's "friends", fuses with Seth to become Satan. "dance battle to actually progress the game" - there's a point in the game where you have to find 7 pillars in order to progress to the underworld. One of these pillars is hidden behind a dance battle that you have to win (for some reason) you need to have 10 points in magic to beat it.
Damn worst is that i skipped all these chests in my playtrough because honestly gems are pretty much useless and i aint gonna wait for the right time to open them Did the same thing in nocturne
@@valletasGems are actually not that useless. If you get 9 of the same type of gem you get a stat bonus, not permanent if the amount of that gem goes down but it’s still pretty good. Especially if you don’t want to grind for levels that much. My first playthrough I just kept farming them to have an easier time later on.
man back when your protagonist was the demon summoner every-day guy that didn't have magical powers strong enough to make their summoning functions counterintuitive haha
The reason Voice of God only hit Aleph is because it always targets whoever has the lowest Intelligence. All the bosses in the final dungeon have unique moves that are very predictable as to who they hit and, with the exception of Satan, all of them target whoever has the lowest of a particular stat. Sabaoth binds the one with the lowest Strength, Shaddai paralyzes the one with the lowest Agility, Elohim petrifies the one with the lowest Luck, and Satan instakills based on how you've ordered your party. That's why I was torn over you choosing the Law ending - it's my favorite of the three endings, but the final dungeon without demons would have been a big difficulty spike because of their signature moves. Also, the agility issues on Lucifer and YHVH weren't just bad luck; those two and Satan are just super evasive naturally to make them more challenging. Only guaranteed hit skills and really powerful swords will consistently damage them.
44:50 To expand on this one point a bit, when Hiroko first arrived in Valhalla back at the start of the game she said she was looking for "a missing child." The implication isn't hard to figure out but it's easy to overlook when you play the game yourself. The child in question is undoubtedly Aleph.
There's something about the older SMTs' vibes, with the environmental swerves and constrained physical layout putting everything in the same dungeon-navigation interface. SMTII in particular I don't see covered very often, and it's a cool changeup to see a direct sequel to the events of a previous game. IV's basically the only game with a similar combination of setup and sequel placement (at least with Apocalypse included) that I'm aware of in the main series. Thanks for the run and insight, Nyarly.
59:28 the "sin of genocide" line was not in the japanese version. satan doesnt even say why he rebelled in japanese. from what i understand the extra content in the gba version suggeets that, while turned into stone, zayin had a revelation that everything he does is "god's will" and he doesn't have to obey a funny yellow man to enact "god's will". he had his own reasons for destroying the world
Now I can only picture YHVH talking like Director Bullock from American Dad to the archangels "i said KILL them! Kill them all! ...yes them too! ...also them! No! Not him...thats me..."
Here's your Hebrew lesson of the day! for some reason, romanizations like to add an H to the end of hebrew letters. I dunno why I've seen "beth" so much when it's pronounced "beth". same for Daleth, which is normally dalet. With the actual Japanese, it is pronounced like it's romanized, but it messes with my head xD Also worth noting that while it might have been romanized as Zain, the japanese does have the correct pronunciation, which sounds like "za-een". less relevant is that aleph has the emphasis on its first syllable. This has been your obligatory OCD powered hebrew lesson of the day. great video!
Given I assume the second "beth" here is supposed to be *"bet"* instead, that ironically shows easy still is to at least typo it even when you know. Otherwise, neat. Thanks.
I mean, he did (De)Buffless on SMT 3 Nocturne, and Fusionless (and Minimum%) on SMT 4, as well as the same Nocturne-style run on Strange Journey. Dude's got his bases covered and his plate full.
@@KittyKatty999iirc the guy who made the translation purposefully mistranslated stuff to make the law route look bad, more than what the Japanese chaos bias already make it look. It happened also in the snes smt 1 translation, with stuff like the law hero saying "try not to feel to bad" when the MC mother dies, and if you check the official smt 1 translation in the IOS port (or the gba translation which just copied and pasted that one), it says something different.
@@ruekruzby this logic the only hard game in the franchise is actually SJ. Maybe DDSaga 2. Seriously, Nocturne is even easier than Eternal Punishment or FES, lol.
can i just say that i have been binge watching all of your challenge run vids of persona and SMT games on repeat and you are the reason I bought SMT Nocturne remaster for my ps4 and plan on playing it soon after i finish reload. You make great vids broski, keep it up
I find it infinitely funny the hint to what you're supposed to do for the Moon Pillar 'cause the game gives you a hint... About some lady's 9 magic backflips of all things.
I remember the first time I fought YHVH, the battle lasted so long, I had to create a save state so I could take a break. The moment I loaded the save state back from my break, the first attack killed YHVH. I wasn't sure if I was one attack away from killing YHVH when I created the save state or it was a bug in creating the save state that caused YHVH to be killed in the one attack. Either way, I took it as a win and enjoyed the ending.
Thanks for uploading these. It's been ages since I last played the snes era smt games. I mostly dived into smt knowing that Personas 1-2ep get less love and attention than 3-5. Though thanks for saying that Shinjuku was a huge and easy to get lost in. Lost myself countless times in smt 1
1:03:54 ok so the reason why yhvh always targeted aleph with voice of god is because targets the party member with the lowest intelligence. aleph had low af intelligence so he would always be hit by gods voice.
Daleth wasn't trying to make Aleph fall in love with him. He was trying to make him fall in love with Anoon so he would settle down with her and stop opposing him. She went along with the plan because she loves Daleth that much. I think the way that whole arc resolves is cute.
So in smt 2 the last few bosses have super high avoid. Normally you would rely on your demons but here you would really want to have a weapon with super high hit The problem is that most weapons have (relatively) dogshit hit except the ones only obtainable in the postgame dungeon and the fiend drops That is to say getting a fiend drop early game is spectacularly lucky. One could even say suspiciously so
Oh yeah, in the fight against YHVH, the reason Aleph always gets nailed by Voice of God is because it always targets the one still standing with the WORST magic stat.
Wow. That Alice fight was both epic and *really* lucky. I haven't seen *any* majin in 2 full playthroughs and I've only encountered them in my 3rd one - and that's 'cause I was specifically *looking* for them. Btw, Daleth *didn't* try to get the main character to fall in love with him - he wanted to make him fall in love with Anoon, but she liked Daleth and not the protagonist, hence why she decided to help you and entranced *him* instead. "Wait! I never said I was onboard with this!" I had the same reaction when that happened at the end of my law playthrough. XD
Pls do an SMT devil survivor challenge run sometime. I am playing it right now and it is my first ever game in the SMT franchise ever (including persona). Unless playing joker in smash counts as a persona game.
This game reminds me of how much I miss SMT: Imagine, and how it takes place between I and II. (And yes, I'm aware of the private server, my laptop is over 6 years old and can barely handle opening browsers at times lol.)
Clearly, the dance contest is all a Labyrinth reference. To whit: Dance, magic dance (dance, magic dance) Dance, magic dance (dance, magic dance) Put that baby's spell on me Jump, magic jump (jump, magic jump) Jump, magic jump (jump, magic jump) Put that magic jump on me Slap that baby, make him free
Hey I'm curious why you often rename characters, but then refer to them by their default names. As someone less familiar with some of the older megaten games, it makes it a bit harder to follow. Love the videos, always entertaining and great work put into them!
Someone may have posted this already, but YHVH's insta-kill always targets the character in the first available position, so that is why it was only hitting Aleph.
my man nyarly going full low tier god on poor red bear. Also, aside from spd (which you don't really need to max), you also need luck to improve the accuracy problems, kek.
It would be cool to see if you can beat SMT1 using only demons (like, only defending or talking with your protagonist, and only defending with your other human party members)
13:36 Tfw I actually had the same exact experience with my first time playing SMT II a couple of months back LMAO Basically, I was going through the game while having some GameFAQs maps handy along with a overall guide, and while I was in one of the Underground areas (looks like it might be the Akasaka one, at least from what I saw after checking the map I used on GFAQS again) I noticed that there was this really small area that seemed to contain a ton of Fiend spawns alongside a Magic Box, so I basically tried to go there a couple of times while saving and resetting the game from the terminal in that area to see if I could find one... but then I tried to go for the Magic Box Alice encounter as well, just for shits and giggles, and I get it on pretty much my first try... and yeah, I got the fucking Shiki Staff from her as well, which I instantly equipped onto Hiroko and basically had that weapon for her for pretty much the rest of the game LOL But that's actually not the only time I had a encounter with Alice either, because right at the time where you go to the Center again to fight the Elders and have that back-to-back boss fight with them, I had a encounter with her there, this time just from the 1/32 Fiend spawns, and guess what? I got another Shiki Staff drop. _AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!_ Still wonder how lucky I truly was with those btw, cuz I can't imagine these being very easy to get; hell, I did not get a single Fiend encounter in SMT If... despite playing all four routes (don't judge me, I was bored okay) and the rates still being the same ones from SMT II, so I dunno what the hell even happened for me to have gotten both Alice encounters like that lmao
I played this for the first time recently. I have never loved and hated a game quite like this. If I never see the tunnel from Holy town to the center again, it will be too soon.
For some reason some parts of this game remind me of smt IV apocalypse and it also would be cool if you did that game without demon fusion like your smt IV challenge run but that's on you whatever you like and want
Well I don’t really care if it’s persona or other games as long as the video come out I will be watching anyway😊 I really enjoyed your content especially the creative one such as hand gun challenge, or lili challenges, keep it up I always support you.

Doesn't SMT 4 also follow 3? Just a little time skip? And 4A happens concurrently with it and isn't a sequel?
@ravenstires1747 4 follows 2, I'm pretty sure. Nocturne is it's own special thing
4 doesn't follow up on 3, but 5 does. 4A takes place during 4's neutral route, but is in its own separate timeline

I didnt realize betelgeuse and bettlejuice are two different thing
was waiting !
New challenge idea: Can nyarly catch up on sleep without playing soul hackers 2? (Impossible)
The North Temple is Exdeath Castle! It's a Meat fort!
Not gonna lie after this I'd love to watch a Neutral playthrough of this from you.
Nyarly should play the loto, like damn, insane luck with that Alice encounter
Nyarly grind is crazy
Well I don’t really care if it’s persona or other games as long as the video come out I will be watching anyway😊 I really enjoyed your content especially the creative one such as hand gun challenge, or lili challenges, keep it up I always support you.

Mara in the house!
Pretty good, really hoping ror a remake with a good battle system
Oh that's cool, Nyarly just gets really good early game RNG
*Proceeds to punch, kick, stab, and shoot God until he dies*
Apparently you can free Hiruko without Nadja's help, something i discovered accidentally by only learning about Nadja by these videos
oh thank god a new video to help me get through the college grind
It's already past Christmas but we keep getting presents. 🎉 Thanks Nyarly Claus 😂
Seeing that church mofo at around the 9:30 minute mark, I had to do a double take like, "Wait, is that... PAPA IV?!" Keep up the great work, man, these are real fun to watch.
