    I love the DDS games, really deserves HD remasters for all systems.

      Absolutely!! It's the two games that kicked off my love for Megaten and I wish they weren't so overlooked. Such a kick ass pair of games.

      @@ironwolfosiris also wish we got more games in this series with new cast, 4 characters instead of 3 in combat, but keep the same combat/skill systems.

    As somebody who played the game: you used human form wrong, it’s meant to be used in battles with one person at a time with the other two staying demons for combos and gun support to milk turns

    Serph = Leader/Silent Protagonist.
    Heat = Anger.
    Gale = Smart/Levelheaded.
    Argilla = Human.
    Cielo = Comic relief.

    DDS really deserves to get a full scale hd remake. Easily the best written games to come from shin megami.

    I don’t remember needing to grind Especially in dds1 ? Couple of bosses needed a more understood and tighter puzzle like method to figure out but never felt like I had to get extra levels to push strength. I just stop and out wit.

    Next time you feel burnt out, just release the video once you're ready. No point in cheating for a video like this, maybe work on a different project in the meantime or something
    That being said, still enjoyed the video!
