Devil Summoner is a series that differs from Persona 3 and 4. A 1920′s Japanese mystery game, you play as Raidou Kuzunoha, a summoner of the classic megaten devils. Your job, should you choose to accept, is to solve a mystery initially as simple as meeting someone but quickly explodes involving supernatural beings and the dark world.
I just got my copy of Devil Summoner 2 with Raiho plushy and am giddy as a school kid. Little Jack Frost is all set for Halloween in his Raidou costume. The packaging is great, a collectors dream…until they hear what the Japan release came with, the soundtrack or a new copy of Nocturne (another great SMT game). Each box is numbered and comes sealed by a bit of tape up top.
quite the fun game and pretty easy to pickup for SMT beginners
Sadly this is the last great of the PS2. RIP PS2
This is a pretty good game
but not at Amazon’s price…It’s cheaper at gamestop
I just checked and gamestop has quite a few that includes the doll for $34.99
way cheaper than the asking prices here
I say get the game, just don’t get it here, you’ll save money and eliminate the delivery
Starting off I’m a huge SMT fan. That said-
*The real time rpg system is to easy. You can basically button smash your way through all but the hardest bosses. No guides, no gaurds, no strategy, just strait hit them up and heal in emergency is all you need.
*Devil classes have been dumbed down into a handful of categories. While I’m sure theres actually more demons, it certainly feels like less, and by limiting the demons themselves are basically interchangable.
*You spend more time casually strolling and chatting then you actually spend in there incredibly small dungeons.
*storyline is substandard, and in the dialogue you’re forced to view characters repeat things constantly.
*confusing unexplained direction. If it wasn’t for the internet people might have trouble unlocking the very first dungeon.
To sum it up, SMT dumbed there game down to suit a more button mashing audience, and lost a lot of the complexity that comes from planning ahead. If your an atlus faithful, go for it, but if you truely want a SMT game, skip this title
its a very long game but i believe its worth the time put into it
I have not finished the game yet, but am at the beginning of chapter 6 [of 7]…
I’m not [that] long winded, so I’m just going to lay out pros and cons:
Cons -
+ everything is too laid out and obvious, instructions are explicitly given for everything, there is no challenge like there was in digital devil saga or nocturne on finding hidden areas, secret endings, no fun subplots [there are 'case files' most of which are simple] no uber long and challenging dungeons [dungeons in this game are maybe 20 stories versus 99]… I liked when the shin megami games were not as user friendly, it was more of a challenge to figure it out and the game was exciting to play…
+ leveling up goes *way too fast* limit is 99, I’m already almost at 70… I do run around killing things more than the average person who is just playing straight through, but still…
+demon development is predictable – the skills the demon will have their next 2 levels up are just greyed out… who else misses the nocturne system where this is sometimes a mystery… or demons develop skills after going up like 5 levels instead of 1? Again – too easy
+dialogue gets repetitive…
+they dumbed down the dialogue, the philosophical questions get less philosophical
+would have loved the game to be larger, like more places to go.
Pros:
+the four horsemen are back!
+the story line sounds lame in the description of the game on here, but it’s actually really good… you think you’re going to be playing out one story line through the whole game and it gets weird… in a fantastic way.
+nice atmosphere and costume design in the game, allbeit the character development is shallow
would pretty much agree with a lot of the reviews here…
