Man it’s crazy how this is one of the latest translated MegaTen games, but man is it so unique and special and I’m upset we didn’t know about it before. I hope with this and the eventual Marsh vid it will bring people to this game. Vive MegaTen
The great filters of Megami Tensei SMT3: Matador SMT4: Minotaur Majin Tensei 2: That one turtle in the hallway running between healing springs and shooting you through walls.
@@CarlosMW I'm either not there yet, or I don't remember the exact part. What I do remember is sacrificing a demon to fetch me an M16 that was guarded by Yurlungur snipers.
Chapter 13 has been the biggest filter for me in my 2 times playing this game (im at ahriman on my second run on neutral rn after finiahing with dark chaos)
I don't wanna be that guy, but Persona cross pollination is too real. They're really playing to too safe with SMT these days, but I guess it's understandable given the nature of business. I mean we got a P5 musou and tactical rpg that could have easily been another Raidou or Majin Tensei/Devil Survivor.
I caved and began playing this game because of you, the negotiation is so funny.. as a guy who isnt experienced with trpgs i appreciate the fact that you provide tips and dont include spoilers! Also thankfully you got buffmaisters footage before the cryptobro hack and i really like the irl fight between you and satan
It's good you decided to review this game. I'm also looking forward to the "best version of SMT2" video in the future. EDIT: I meant to say SMT VX HV video, not SMT2 lmao
Played this one twice (with ff, of course), and it's mega fun and challenging if you only use demons and the protag. Now the toughest maps become escort missions, having to move your 10-20 lvld party members from different areas or having them guard spots with demons protecting them. Some of the best moments involved maps where the bases were located at the end of the map and there were demons with long attack or mobility ranges, having these characters move thru the entire map and even sacrificing demons to allow them to pass safely. So good!!!!!!!
When I played it I tried to use the least amount of demons possible (only bothered to use Konohana Sakuya and Parvati for long-range healing) to make the game even harder, something that make every fight more difficult but more enjoyable at the same time. I had to build the five Partisans as optimized as possible, otherwise, they could die almost instantly against Grim Drakes or Dragon Kings x_x
@@CarlosMW In both my runs, many times were characters one shotted, forcing me to reload. The funniest moment was when a demon was chasing Kaoru thru the entire map and wouldn't let him go. In the end, I restarted and made it so that all characters would go separately with some demons, and then reconvene at the center of the map for a final showdown. Thank you so much for showcasing this amazing game, some of the best fun (albeit with a challenge twist) I've had with megaten. Ultimate boss was too easy thoo. After the hallway (which was kinda hard) even if it's surrounded by many grunts, they don't counter-attack at all nor do they move to attack you. Had a nordic demon who attacked with melee from afar kill every grunt and ***** ***** one by one lmao.
@@CarlosMWI believe it should've been more challenging despite the decent stat distribution. Then again, this is megaten, many times choking at the very end with easy final bosses (not counting the ultimate bosses).
I've been wanting to play Majin Tensei 2 for a while on my CRT, I'm sure it will do the graphics justice, but playing without Fast Forward... Just sounds painful
This game has challenge and not challenge at the same time( if compare with MT 1). In MT 1, max stat is not a big problem. it is easy. But use main char vs normal demon is big problem because they come with high number. atleast MT 1 almost no range demon, they cast magic only. Back to MT 2, stats is hard to find! but speed make hit 2 times so we can go to" risky way" easily to the end of the game. And in MT 2, we can equip to demon with human like too! the problem with Mt 2 is grinding lv for heroes..
I know it's not your footage, but there's a special place in hell for people who apply that much pixel smoothing on their emulators. Instead of detail you just have a slathering of vaseline over all the fantastic pixel art...
I knew someone will eventually pointed that out. Yeah, I'm also not a big fan of high-scaling a Super Famicom game to make it look """good""", but I used that user's footage because he helped me in the past with the SMT SJR Honest Verdict footage. Also, he's the only one that ACTUALLY played the whole thing without cutting or accelerating the gameplay itself haha
@@nerotheyoung jugue y termine absolutamente todas del SMT 1 y 2 porque tuve que hacer los vídeos comparativos, y aún no he jugado las versiones de Famicom de los Kyuuyaku jaja
Why did you pick gameplay footage that was so... well, bad? It really takes away from this video, not being able to see what the game _actually_ looks like. It's stretched to it's breaking point to fit into widescreen instead of being in 3:4 like it should be. And that smoothing filter? I legitimately don't know how anybody EVER thought that was a good idea. The characters look like melted wax figures. With widescreen AND the smoothing filter, it's like they were trying to make the game look as _bad_ as they possibly could.
I know the gameplay footage's quality was very bad, but I used 4KGaming's gameplay footage for two reasons: 1.He helped me in the past with SJR's gameplay 2.He's the only guy I know that actually recorded a whole Majin Tensei 2 run lol

Marsh will definitely talk about it, but I'm pretty sure his next big project is SMT II so we'll have to wait a while
I didnt know about that until today, im glad to be a megaten fan in 2023-4... evwrything is so much more accessible
You are slowly becoming one of my favourite Megaten content creator!
You have no idea how motivating that is to me
I cannot express how much this game took the years off my life. The speed up helped i guess.
I liked sylphie's design. And I liked your review!
Thanks man!
The great filters of Megami Tensei
SMT3: Matador
SMT4: Minotaur
Majin Tensei 2: That one turtle in the hallway running between healing springs and shooting you through walls.
The first filter isn't that turtle...it's the goddamn Dragon Kings that are protecting an armor in one of the early stages

When demon fusion animation looks better in Majin Tensei 2 than in Soul Hackers 2 and SMT V :D
F.R.I.D.A.Y is also the best minor character from this game

It's not that slower compared to the first Fire Emblems

The reason why the ending is so easy is because at that point you already have a decent/great stat distribution

The experience might still be slow, but more things are happening on screen that will keep you playing
This game have also one of best OST on Super Famicom, and in Megaten series. Evolution, and Eurythmic Battle slaps so hard.
