Hey faggot losers. I wanna play the original SMT but the game design is kinda scary. I don't know what any of the stats do, I don't know how to get good demons, I don't know how to get the good ending, and I don't know about any of the secrets. Is this game just obtuse ass? Should I just pass? I kinda hate old jrpgs that hide everything in nintendo power magazines.

It's not that bad, just use guide when you feel like you're in a dead end. Stats are simple and the protag can't use any magic, so that simplifies things quite a bit.

then just get a walkthrough faggot

should I try and get the good ending? will playing without a guide cause me to miss out on a lot of content?

why play an rpg when you already know whats going to happen?

SMT 1 and 2 are definitely not for everyone, but they have some great atmosphere. Here's a tip to win in old skool smt: get a gun that targets all enemies, and get some bullets that cause sleep, paralyze or charm.

ok here I go. This thread is now Zig Forums plays SMT!

There is no "good" ending. There's chaos, neutral and law ending, and it depends on your choices through out the game. Law fags are gay.

then what the fuck are you complaining about?

Penis Cock

I think there's one game breaking bug you gotta watch out for in 1. Somebody else probably knows more.

Only an issue with the shitty translation.

What kinda stats should penis cock have? I guess he can't use magic. Maybe luck will help with talking to demons.

make sure you get the Kusanagi sword in shinigawa, but before that, try to get the demons sylph, Undyne and Salamander to create the best weapon in the game the hinokagutsuchi, dont rush it is going to take you a while to get to shinigawa and you need at least level 40 to make salamander.

Holy shit turn off those filters.

Why are you using that horrible filter? Stop it. STOP IT NOW!

Start from MT, not SMT

A bit in INT (about 15 is fine) since that helps with negotiations, max VIT (you can't use the COMP with a dead MC), then whatever. Don't bother with STR in the early game, unless you have Masakado's Sword or the Hinokagetsuchi your melee damage will be subpar and multi-hit guns will alway be better.

Idk

all in speed, gsus is a fast nigga

I hope this game is easy cause these characters are gonna suck ass

it's easy if you know what you're doing
it's quite hard if you don't

There is no good ending. Just if you prefer an authoritarian oppressive world or an anarchic oppressive world.

i don't remember it being that hard, or at least not like modern smt where exploiting/covering weaknesses and buffs are key. the real difficulty is in not quitting in frustration because of the ridiculous random encounter rate

It's easy because ailments are broken as shit, but kinda tedious because it throws waves and waves of enemies at you. SMT II is way better.

we have another friend to name. this one seeks power. post name and stats.

lol I don't but we'll see how this goes.

yandev
str and vit

Chaosfag, all STR

2 sucks because it's much more cryptic and prone to backtracking.

>not going pure luck build

this shit is over before it started, RIP

STR was the best stat IIRC. Don't waste any points with magic or int

ok fixes. good thing were early. now we have a lucky penis and a gf

that's smt if

ok so smt is just devil man. I assume at the end satan destroys the world. at least we get to use guns.

>level drain attacks

Did you play the snes remake? I actually did start MT1 and I opted for nes. It was cool but the problem is that the second wasn't translated. I think that also played a big part in why I stopped. I like to play the originals for games over revisions/remasters. Even with added content.

I'm almost at the end of the SNES version. It really gets tedious when you realize you have to ckeck every spot in the map to not get locked later because you missed a key item or NPC.
