Huh, I always assumed they took a fixed percentage of your current macca. I guess I was just poor enough at the first encounter with them, that it seemed like they took around half of it.
@@f-ergyx4136 I was playing Vanilla on Hard, so that'll be good to know for New Game Plus. 3k for a single cast of Traesto is not a bad deal by the time you reach the Second Kalpa.
@@petergriscom3431 *correction the soul stole more macca the deeper you go into labyrinth, in 5th kalpa they take 10k from you. sorry, i didn't notice this bc i always collect 1.5M on hell's vault
It's one of the cruelest pranks in the Labyrinth, second only to putting the shortcuts BEHIND the menora doors so you have to run past several all over again to unlock them! Worse, the Riders that hold the third kalpa menoras only spawn after you enter the third Kalpa, so you can't plan ahead to avoid this.
@@d4csparda366 that's the issue. there is no way to skip doing that, because the shortcuts that lead to the different kalpas only open after you've placed the menorahs.
Is it really a cruel prank? At first you kinda hate how it is a begginers trap but after that it becomes a easy way out of the labirynth to the only save spot in the whole dungeon
It may be costly, but sometimes, depending on the circumstance ... it can be a smart option to make - because you never know when the Demi-Fiend is but a well-connected Mudo away from a Game Over.
It's literally the only way to leave the area after completing the 2nd kalpa isn't it? When you trek back from 3 to 2, you end up in a room with only dead ends and the soul scammer there.
I can't even get mad at the hostess club spirit ladies. The money they steal is worth way less than the progress I would lose tracking back through the Kalpas.
I mean - I don’t know what you’d expect from the hostess club ghosts. They were so committed to convincing people to dump as much money as possible on booze in life that they’re still doing it in death.
Yes, to test you mentally. Then, you battle him to test you physically. Depends how you pull through, you either die by killing yourself, he kills you, or you be a big bad boi and become a true demon.
Naoki: OI LUC WHAT THE HERE *somewhere else* Lucifer: hm? Did you hear something Lady: I think the demi fiend is angry Lucifer: maybe we should've kicked out those hostess spirits.............................................naaaaaaaaah
The problem is that the Amala is the domain of Lucy, so if I were to get this I would be more like "Fuck the old bag, I'm going to make a reason" and just get the Freedom Ending
The first time I went back to the second kalpa after defeating one of the Riders, I complained how I had to do the travel back but the path was blocked and I was like: "How tf do you get out of here then!?" and I saw that NPC...suddenly it made sense.
That's why you should just fund the shady dealer's questionable operations and buy the pisaca. The freedom to choose how you're exploited is part of the enduring beauty of the vortex world!
First Kalpa: "So if this is how bad Heaven is... What am I in for further down?" Second Kalpa: "Oh suck it up wimp, we didn't even add in SMT2's teleport traps." Third Kalpa: "THIS PARTY'S GETTING CRAZY!" Fourth Kalpa: Literally cursed

Really love the implication that the demifiend carries a wallet but doesn’t wear a shirt
Top 10 reasons The Legend of Zelda sucks:
10-1: Where does Link carry all those weapons he finds in Dungeons? This franchise makes no sense.
@@HunterStiles651 I'll do you one more: how does Samus from Metroid carry hundreds of rockets and myriads of bombs?
In his defense, Lucifer stole his hoodie and it's hard to find clothes after an apocalypse.
@@Akwasi0 Turning him into a demonic creature I can forgive... but stealing a man's swag hoodie.... Unforgiveable
@@Akwasi0 I really wish that hoodie existed in real life. It looks so cool.
demi-fiend: save up to 1M macca
random soul: steal only 3k macca from him
'your wallet feels really light'
me: visible confusion
Huh, I always assumed they took a fixed percentage of your current macca. I guess I was just poor enough at the first encounter with them, that it seemed like they took around half of it.

@@f-ergyx4136 they took 3k macca in pennies and left you with only 100k banknotes, the inflation is crazy in the vortex world.
Even as a demonic pawn of Lucifer, nobody is safe of the scammers

This is exactly why I hate the kalpas and will never do them again
At least I'm saving this shit for New Game+.
PLZ EXPLAIN THE MENORA SHORTCUT THING I HATE DOING THE LAST KALPA ALL OVER AGAIN TO DO THE NEW ONE

I use them as a quick back track for the entrance
same glad to know im not the only one lmao
I figured that was their purpose
Same lmao

Beginner's trap for anyone playing this game blind. I ran into that same trap on my first playthrough. Good times.

It's more fun when you're the one getting the money, like in Yakuza
So this is the reason why he goes to the true demon route
Thumbnail: This is why I rejected God.
Dude, Lucy made the labyrinth...

*somewhere else*

Lucifer: maybe we should've kicked out those hostess spirits.............................................naaaaaaaaah
Did he really? Or did he just remodel it?
This is a certified "MY FATE IS A HAUNTED CURSE!" moment
Reject god, return to true demon.
The real reason
Metatron: Turn back you fool.
Me: Don't tell me what to do you egg!
The problem is that the Amala is the domain of Lucy, so if I were to get this I would be more like "Fuck the old bag, I'm going to make a reason" and just get the Freedom Ending
Drunk Fiend

Why would those souls even need money? Come on!
Soul food
The backtrack bitches? Why are you mad? Quick portal to the entrance.

godfuckingdammit
luckily i learned that lesson immediately in the first kalpa
Me when 0 Kromer
Ah I fell for that too ages ago...also, vortex world have coordinates?!
This is the moment The Demi-fiend met up with Cardi B
This happened to me AAAAA I just be like 😀…
uh, if you didn't reject God you wouldn't have a reason to be in the labyrinth.
No trust me it gets far, far, far, FAR worse
First Kalpa: "So if this is how bad Heaven is... What am I in for further down?"
Second Kalpa: "Oh suck it up wimp, we didn't even add in SMT2's teleport traps."
Third Kalpa: "THIS PARTY'S GETTING CRAZY!"
Fourth Kalpa: Literally cursed
Too bad, w*men, coz I got only 500 and 1 macca in my pocket. Oh yeah, bum-fiend style 😎
Does anyone know the piano song at the end :0
